Madam not allowed to remarry

Chapter 168
It was this news that made Xue Yan terrified.

But these days, there was no more news from the garrison camp.

However, the calm before the storm, with Xue Yan's intelligence, it is impossible to relax her vigilance.

Therefore, Xue Yan will definitely not move these brothers who were arrested, and she will definitely keep it just in case, and come to exchange the shortcut with Mujiazhai.

Facts have proved that Meng Baiyun's guess is correct.

A member of the Xiushui Gang that Lao Cai knew accidentally revealed to Lao Cai when he was drunk that the brothers in Mujiazhai were all imprisoned in the dungeon of the state capital.

State dungeon.

This place has long been the territory of the garrison and Xiushui Gang.

Earlier, when the Empress Dowager attached great importance to the law and order of Jinzhou, she sent no less than a state official, but one came and one died. Over time, no official dared to come to this place to take office.

After the queen mother adopted a semi-exile state for Jinzhou, she listened to her confidant, the current prime minister Li Xianzong, and promoted a master as a state official on the spot.

This master, how many state officials have died and he is still standing still, naturally he is able to get along in Jinzhou City, and has colluded with the garrison Xiushui Gang.

Therefore, the existence of the state capital is nothing more than taking money from the imperial court to serve the Xiushui Gang.

It is even more difficult for people to be locked up in the state capital dungeon instead of Taiping Street.

The dungeon in the state capital is complicated and has many handles, and the Xiushui gang must have set up a net to prevent Mu's village from saving people.

Taking a risky rescue is really not the best policy. On the contrary, the whole army may be wiped out, and even less capital to negotiate with Xue Yan.

Meng Baiyun was waiting for an opportunity.

This time, without waiting too long, the opportunity came.

Zhou He, the master state official, celebrated his fiftieth birthday and held a grand banquet to entertain the Quartet.

On this day, under the arrangement of Meng Baiyun and Xiao Gufeng, a group of brothers from Mujiazhai divided into three groups and sneaked into the state capital.

Meng Baiyun and a few girls mingled with the maidservants, adapting accordingly.

Through the brother of the Xiushui Gang, Lao Cai spent some money to arrange a few noodles into the back kitchen, waiting for the opportunity to put medicine in the wine.

And Xiao Gufeng led people to wait in the dark, and when the time came, he came in to save people.

The three groups of people, each performing their duties, cooperate well, saving people is easy, and they can also take some property by the way, subsidizing the expenses on the mountain.

In the ear room, the master of the church was urging the girls to pack up, they were very busy.

"Hey, look at you, what's going on, why are there so many rashes on this face, how do you go up to play the piano with this face, you are going to embarrass my Yancuifang, can't you? , Substitute."

"But Fangzhu, the song "Shoubi Nanshan" requested by Mr. Zhou is only Caiyihui among us."

"Really, Master Zhou only sent the list of songs and dances in the last few days. Only Caiyi has the talent, so she hurriedly learned this song. Now her face, it's not unappetizing. It's annoying. Master Zhou's displeasure is second to none, the Third Prince is here today, and a dignitary from the capital is here too, you can't afford to offend him."

"Then, what to do then?"

Meng Baiyun was delivering tea to the dancers in the ear room when he overheard this passage.

She can do it, she can do it.

Hiding in this small house, I don't know what's going on ahead, so I just go out and play a tune, so I can grasp the big scene.

So, she volunteered.

The song "Shoubi Nanshan", the dead Meng Baiyun practiced it perfectly, just to cheer for the old lady of the Meng family on her [-]th birthday, and to make her happy.

As a result, the old lady didn't give her a chance to play at all. Unexpectedly, it came in handy today.

The Fangzhu didn't believe it at first, and after letting her play for a while, both eyes gleamed: "It's you, it's you, this face is also marked, wearing the clothes of a servant, can't block the brilliance of pearls, playing the pipa Even more proficient, like this, after the end, you come to Yancuifang to find me, and I will support you."

Ha ha.

Really no need.

On the face, Meng Baiyun pretended to be happy, but frowned delicately: "Master, I have been timid since I was a child, and when there are too many people, my hands tremble uncontrollably."

Fangzhu looked anxious: "Well, what should I do?"

"Just cover your face. When I was a child, I was a street performer with my father. Later, I was molested by a few hooligans. I was finally rescued. But since then, my father was always worried that my face would cause trouble again, so he let me cover it up." Face mask, as time goes by, when there are many people, I can't play anything without covering my face."

Fangzhu frowned.

If you can cover your face, you can also wear a colorful dress.

But looking carefully at Meng Baiyun's eyes, her eyes lighted up.

"That's right, half-covered is even more charming. Your eyes, as bright as stars, are charming enough. If Master Zhou asks you to take off your veil after playing, hehe, that would be a surprise and a great gift." , This kind of arrangement is ingenious, and it will definitely please Mr. Zhou, but if it is not complete, I will call you Mrs. Zhou from now on."

Meng Baiyun vomited secretly, but his face was flushed and shy, looking at Caiyi who was burning with jealousy and furious, but the owner of the shop was elated, sighing secretly that he had picked up a treasure.

The flaming red clothes and exquisite makeup, the master of the Jiaofang also asked Caiyi, who is good at painting flower tin, to paint a bright red plum blossom on Meng Baiyun's forehead.

With two black eyebrows, the master of Jiaofang asked Caiyi to describe it to Meng Baiyun in detail. Caiyi is considered an old man in Yancui Pavilion, and only the little girls serve her. She has never served someone like this before, so she stole it She is the man in the limelight.

Feeling unwilling, but the old bustard stared at her, she could only sulk and draw eyebrows on Meng Baiyun.

Two willow-leaf eyebrows, thick black and heroic, with a red plum between the eyebrows as a backdrop, those water-cut autumn eyes, like two tiles of black pearls in white mercury, are even more charming and enchanting.

The red tulle veil covered half of her face, and she had black hair. The procuress asked her to put it all down, hanging down her waist.

Putting on a flaming red robe, the brocade-like black hair is more like a black waterfall floating down from the nine heavens.

"Beautiful, so beautiful, girl, today, you may be going to greatness."

To put it bluntly, it's just a group of rich perverts working outside, and you're bound to be snatched away by one of them, whether you like it or not.

The girls in the room looked at her enviously.

It seemed that she was thinking too much, except for her, all the girls in the room were obviously willing.

"Fangzhu, Mr. Zhou asked us to sing and dance first."

"Let's go, let's not say it. It's the banquet and then we will go. When will this be?"

"Master Zhou said so. He was probably afraid that the early guests would be bored, so he said let's have some singing and dancing first."

"Okay, okay, I see, you go back to Mr. Zhou, and you will be there right away. You guys, present the singing and dancing that you practice on weekdays."

"Yes." Several dancers hurried around, those who changed clothes changed clothes, and those who fixed their hairpins fixed their hairpins.

Meng Baiyun waited idly.

The madam came up and changed her order of appearance.

It became the grand finale.

For the finale, the performance may not be good. If the side that does not ensure that the drug is given goes well, everyone here will get down.

Songs and dances were sent up one by one.

A person came in, Meng Baiyun asked how the front was going, and whether everyone had drunk too much.

On the surface, it seemed that she was afraid that the guests would get too drunk and trouble her, but in fact, she wanted to know if the group of people got down.

Why give her the finale, you have to ask about the situation outside.

It's just strange, why at the current position, after drinking for three rounds, there is still a back-and-forth outside, and there is no trace of an accident at all.

Those medicines were formulated by her herself. It is not as powerful as Guigu's Shirixiang, but it can also fascinate ten cows, but the people outside have no reaction at all.

Could it be that something went wrong with the medicine.

She wanted to go to the back kitchen to have a look, but was held back by the workshop owner: "Sure enough, I still can't change the order of appearances privately. Mr. Zhou is angry because he hasn't seen the pipa birthday song for a long time. You should go quickly."

That's okay, let's go ahead and have a look.

So Meng Baiyun covered his face, holding the pipa and followed a leading maid to the front hall.

Walking through a small corridor pierced with flowers, people's voices gradually became louder.

Suddenly there was a familiar smell in the nostrils.

She followed the smell and looked, but it was pitch black and there was no one there.

It's an illusion.

Occasionally, she would miss him very much.

Along with his scent.

"Sir, people are here."

Entering the hall, looking around, a piece of golden light devastated, beaming with joy.

In this poor place, a state official held a banquet for his fiftieth birthday, which was extremely extravagant and extravagant.

The person sitting in the main seat was not Mr. Zhou, but the bully Meng Baiyun had seen in the mandarin duck restaurant.

He was dressed very casually, and his sitting posture was also very casual, with one leg resting on the seat, his elbows resting on his knees, drinking wine, with lazy eyes.

It's just that the moment he saw Meng Baiyun, there was a slight gleam in his eyes, and there was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.

And the dignitaries on both sides who were drinking and having fun, also instinctively lowered their voices the moment Meng Baiyun entered.

"Master Zhou."

Mr. Shou Xing is a very good man, wearing a brocade gown with flowers and flowers written on the chest, with a wine-colored face full of joy, "Little girl to Mr. Zhou, Third Prince, please greet you."

The delicate voice makes people's bones numb.

The servant girl brought the chair up, but before Zhou Heda could speak, Yan Hongyi spoke first: "Take off the veil."

Fangzhu, who was standing behind the pillar, had a chill down his back.

But I saw the fiery woman, calm and calm: "The little girl is clumsy, if she can't play well, cover her face to see others, and wait a while for the masters to think that she plays well, and the little girl will have the face to see you."

This reason is impossible to refuse.

Yan Hongyi waved his hands: "First, let's send a song to Nangu to see off my mother."

Master Zhou's face froze, and the conversation stopped abruptly.

This, this occasion, this song, no, not right.

It is a funeral song for Nangu to send off his mother.

Although it was not used as a mourning song at first, it just expressed the desolate state of mind of a child with the Nan surname whose father died on the way to send his mother to remarry.

Later, because the tune was sad and the name was quite sad, it became a tune for the burial of the dead. It was mostly played with suona, and the original pipa score has long been lost.

Don't say that the third prince is embarrassing the dancer, just say that the dancer really played, and today's occasion is really inappropriate.

It's just that the third prince is used to being willful, so who can do anything to him.

Lord Zhou could only keep a smile on his face: "Okay, the third prince likes to listen, so you can play it."
