The Alluring Concubine: The Eldest Miss

Chapter 54 Eating Tofu (2)

Lan Xin knew Shen Youliehan so well, she sighed when she saw this, "Aunt Lan is also someone who has been there, how could she not understand, besides, you can't hide your liking for someone."

Shen Youliehan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, but was a little frustrated, "What's the use of my liking her? You can see that she can't tolerate me at all."

Having said that, there was a strange grievance in Shen Youlie's cold tone, which made Han Yu want to laugh, but felt a little distressed.

I couldn't help but said: "My lord, you forgot, Miss Feng just said that she can't find that person, no matter how much she likes such a person, she will forget one day, not to mention how can a non-existent person compare to my lord, you every day To gain a sense of presence by Miss Feng's side, not to mention the grace bestowed by the lord, I'm afraid I won't be able to win against a non-existent rival in love, the subordinates are waiting for the day when the lord announces that Miss Feng will change her name to Wangfei!"

I don't know if the word "rival in love" stimulated Shen Youliehan's sensitive nerves, or the expectation of the word "Princess" was too good, Shen Youliehan actually blushed in the eyes of Han Yu and Lan Xin who were very different, making him People are both novel and funny.

Because Feng Qiwu didn't go to Suifengyuan, after she went out, she asked her servants to take her to Fenglaiyi Pavilion in a carriage. Tonight is the opening day of Fenglaiyi Pavilion. Handed it over to a hidden guard under Han Feng, and ran to Feng Lai Yi Pavilion to help, Feng Qiwu got out of the carriage wearing a mask, and saw Zi Su gesticulating outside with red silk, instructing the guy who hung the lantern Feeling dizzy, he couldn't help laughing, and the heavy mood just now disappeared in an instant.

Hearing Feng Qiwu's laughter, Zisu turned around in surprise, "Miss, you came so early, I thought I would have to wait for a while!"

"Wouldn't it be a pity if we didn't see Zisu being so capable!" Feng Qiwu walked in with a smile, Ban Xia also came down from upstairs, and said respectfully, "Miss is here."

"How about it, have you arranged the upstairs and downstairs, and the singing and dancing, don't make any troubles." Before he could finish speaking, he heard a sharp cry, and when Feng Qiwu looked up, he saw A woman in a dance costume from tonight's show rolled down the stairs.

Feng Qiwu hurriedly signaled Zisu and Banxia to help her to the resting place in the backyard, and then he followed. The dancer's ankle was already swollen.

Feng Qiwu sat next to the dancing girl, pinched her ankle and rubbed it a few times, the dancing girl wanted to shrink back in pain, but Feng Qiwu held her down forcefully, and asked Zisu to bring medicinal wine for Banxia Yungong to strengthen the medicine He rubbed it into the dancer's redness.

After treating the wound, Feng Qiwu finally said: "What's your name, shouldn't you be dressing up at this time, why did you come to the front yard?"

She arranged for a multi-person dance, and if one person is missing, she will look out of place. It's really not the right time for this dancer to be hurt.

"My family's name is Bai Lan. When I was dressing up, I found that I lost a bell in my hand. I was at a loss. I wanted to ask Sister Banxia. I was in a hurry. I stepped on the hem of the skirt and fell it." The dancer named Bai Lan spoke. Seeing that Feng Qiwu's expression was slightly cold, he seemed a little anxious, and said in a crying voice: "Miss, I know that you are the serious master of Zhefeng Laiyi Pavilion, I beg you not to drive out of my house. When Lianlefang came out, Mother Li was already very upset. If Miss fired the Nu family, the Nu family would really have nowhere to go, Miss..."

"Okay!" Feng Qiwu interrupted Bailan's crying impatiently: "Since you're injured, you can rest here, don't run around anymore, I'll figure out a solution for the singing and dancing."

Out of Bailan's room, Zisu wrinkled her small face and said angrily, "It's too late for Miss Bailan to get hurt. Miss, where can you find someone who can dance like us? It's too embarrassing." People..."

"What are you panicking, isn't it here?" Feng Qiwu sneered and looked towards the door, Zisu and Banxia looked up, and saw a woman in disheveled clothes standing at the door, crying with pear blossoms and rain Talking to the concierge, shopkeeper Xu was also called after a while.

After Feng Qiwu walked over and sat in a seat near the lobby on the second floor, he saw shopkeeper Xu running over, Feng Qiwu said slowly: "Shopkeeper Xu, you should be so busy at this time. The land is what, what's wrong?"

"Miss is really amazing. There is a girl at the door. It is said that she came from Qingchengyuan in Yangzhou. She came to Beijing to visit her relatives but lost the news of her relatives. She wanted to seek refuge in Fenglaiyi Pavilion. The subordinates saw that the girl looked pretty and knew how to play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. , Qingcheng Garden is also quite famous in Jiangnan area, therefore, come to ask the master if you want to keep her."

"This kind of matter, shopkeeper Xu is the master, why ask me everything." Feng Qiwu was noncommittal, looking at the woman standing at the door, I saw the mysterious and unpredictable woman.

Shopkeeper Xu hesitated for a while when he heard the words, and then said: "This girl is indeed very talented, but my subordinates think that they have some good eyesight for people. This girl has an impure mind, so I want to ask the lady if she should stay or not. with her."

"Keep it, why don't you keep the cash cow that came to your door?" Feng Qiwu smiled and said, "Shopkeeper Xu, you are also a smart person. You came to ask me for this purpose. If I said not to keep it, wouldn't I let you?" disappointment?"

Shopkeeper Xu quickly lowered his head, "This subordinate has exceeded the rules, please punish me."

Masters hope that their subordinates are smarter, but they don't want their subordinates to be too smart, especially if they pretend to be smart, they are not welcome. This shopkeeper Xu wants to use that woman to test Feng Qiwu. Saying it is absolutely intolerable.

"You call yourself a subordinate. Although I am not your master, you are also working under me. Shopkeeper Xu. I hope this kind of thing is just this one time, and this is not an example." Feng Qiwu got up and left a sentence: "That person first Stay and fill Bai Lan's vacancy, if there is a next time, you can do it yourself."

After finishing speaking, he didn't stay in the lobby, but turned and went to the room specially prepared for Lan Xin.

Shopkeeper Xu wiped away the sweat that didn't exist on Bin's forehead with his sleeve, turned around and went out to call the woman in. He didn't dare to ask Feng Qiwu if the woman would perform the dance they prepared, so he arranged for someone to put on makeup.

When Xu time was approaching, there was a knock on Feng Qiwu's door, "Are you?" Zisu opened the door and was taken aback when he saw the person coming, and let him in after seeing Feng Qiwu nodded.

"Yun Ji has met Master, and everything is ready, Master, do you want to go out?" The woman in a red dance costume was already graceful and charming.

Feng Qiwu got up, looked around with a pervert's eyes, and sighed: "Yun Ji, it's a pity that you look like this behind the scenes, if you are willing to be in the front, I am absolutely sure to praise you Become the unique oiran of Jincheng, no one can compete with you!"

"Master!" Yun Ji pulled down the hand that was kneading her face carelessly, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "I'm telling you something serious, this store is open, are you going to come out after all?"

"With Yunji here, I won't go out, I'll leave it to you, I don't worry." Feng Qiwu withdrew his hand, returned to his seat and sat down, "The girl's whereabouts, can I find out?"

Seeing that Feng Qiwu was talking about serious business, Yunji put away her laughter and said seriously: "Just now I asked, Hongmei in the backyard saw Bai Lan and Feng Qixia's maidservant Luyi contacting each other an hour ago. The woman's name is Yuyan, and she is indeed from Qingchengyuan, but my subordinates have checked before that the owner of Qingchengyuan is opened by Mrs. Zhou Guogong's nephew, so I am afraid that the young lady must be on guard."

"Hands and feet are quite fast!" Feng Qiwu sneered, the matter of Feng Laiyi Pavilion was only announced this morning, and the hidden trouble came to the door, shouldn't she feel honored that they think highly of her so much?
Then he said: "Where did Miss Yuyan settle down before?"

It would take three days to travel from Yangzhou to Jincheng. She did not underestimate Feng Qixia and Zhou Xiyu, but she also knew that it was impossible for them to predict and arrange people in advance. There is reuse, but Zhou Xiyu intercepted him halfway.

The sneer at the corner of his mouth did not disappear, Feng Qiwu warned: "At any time, pay attention to her movements, don't be disturbed for now, just wait and see how it changes, the envoys of the four countries and many officials' children from Jincheng will come tonight, take the two The venue on the east side of the building has been vacated for concentrated entertainment, as long as we spend tonight safely, with this unprecedented battle, our Wind Comes to Yi Pavilion, we are not afraid of fire!"

"Your subordinate will make arrangements now." Yunji responded and left.

Feng Qiwu went to the window, pulled a chair and lay down on the window sill, looking in the direction of the palace, calculating the time when Shen Youliehan, Aunt Lan and others were coming.

The carriages of Lan Xin and Shen Youliehan came into view respectively, Han Yu and Han Mo rode behind them, accompanied by several familiar guards, but there was no shadow of Hanshuang, Feng Qiwu thought that Shen Youliehan was He listened to what he said he didn't like Frost.

Shen Youliehan came at the right time, and Yunji was about to cut the ribbon. Seeing Shen Youliehan arrived, she first saluted respectfully, "Minister Yunji fell to the wind and came to the Yi Pavilion. Everyone welcomes the prince, thousand years old!"

Hulala, a group of people bowed in front of Fenglaiyi Pavilion, Feng Qiwu looked at Shen Youliehan and spit out the word "free ceremony" coldly before getting out of the carriage, and habitually sneered, his eyes looked behind After the group of people who came, they laughed inadvertently.

Yunji's eyes were sharp, and before she stood up, she saw the prince and his party coming from behind, so she knelt on the ground and couldn't get up, and said loudly: "The grass people see His Royal Highness, a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"

This time, not only the people in Fenglaiyi Pavilion, but even the pedestrians who went shopping at night had to kneel down and salute. The king of Jiang and Princess Duanhua are celebrating the opening of the palace, and all the envoys in the palace came to congratulate and have fun with the people, celebrating my Tianhua River Qinghaiyan, and the peace of the world!"

In just a few words, what he said was a sanctimonious, high-end atmosphere, Feng Qiwu squinted at him from above, "If I open a restaurant, it can be related to Tianhua's peace of the world, why don't you say that he is a prince and leads by example?" , do your best, and then keep Tianhua in peace?"

"Thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince!" After the sincere or false thank-you ceremony, the streets returned to the usual bustle, even more bustling than usual because of the appearance of many rare high-ranking officials and nobles.

Zi Su said fearfully at the side: "Oh, my lady, it's fine for you to talk about this here, but you can't say that outside, maybe you will be labeled as disrespectful at any time, and you will cry There is no place to cry."

Ban Xia didn't restrict Feng Qiwu's speech, but said: "The crown prince has announced your identity, so you don't want to go out, is it appropriate?"

"Whether it fits or not, there will always be faults to be found." Feng Qiwu said as he looked around the crowd, fixed on Zhou Xiyu and Feng Qixia, and quickly moved away.

"It's an honor for the shop for everyone to come to join us, but, my lord, who do you think is more suitable for this ribbon-cutting matter?" Yunji stood up, saluted everyone, and wanted to ask Shen Youliehan, her eyes fell on On the red silk held by the two red maidservants next to her.

When everyone heard the words, they all looked at Shen Youliehan. The matter of cutting the ribbon was neither big nor small. In terms of identity, no one present was more suitable than Shen Youliehuo, but Hanjiang King Shen Youlie Lie Han is also known to not play cards according to common sense, so no one knows how this wayward master will choose.

The focus of attention, however, unhurriedly raised his head and glanced at a certain direction upstairs, and then said: "Fenglaiyi Pavilion is the owner of Duanhua County, and this king is just a name. Since Duanhua County owner has no time to come out, then this The king is the master."

Turning around, facing another carriageway in the Hanjiang Prince's Mansion: "Aunt Lan, you are an elder respected by both Han and Princess Duanhua, I will trouble you for cutting the ribbon!"

"It's you two who called me here so enthusiastically. You wanted me to do something for you!" As the woman's gentle voice sounded, the car curtain was lifted, and Lan, who was dressed in a light blue brocade robe, Xin came out of it, her hair tied into a simple cloud bun, with only a white magnolia hairpin inserted into it.

Such a simple answer, but with infinite elegance, the elderly passer-by exclaimed, "Mrs. Lanxin! It's Mrs. Lanxin!"

"what?"

"Madam Lanxin?"

"Is it the legendary medical fairy Lanxin who kills people invisible and saves people at will?"

"Otherwise, how many Lanxins are there in this world, who dares to have the same name as her?"

······
All kinds of discussions are endless, and even Feng Qiwu upstairs is surprised that Lan Xin has such a complicated identity, but Lan Xin turns a deaf ear to it, and just walks lightly to the door of Fenglaiyi Pavilion, waiting for the staff to bring the red silk Pulling it away, he said slowly: "The younger generation is naughty, and they have found this new place to play. It is their good fortune that you all support me. Lan Xin is a woman who will not talk too much. I only hope that the guests who come and go will have fun and be happy. !"

As he spoke, he picked up the scissors from the plate in the buddy's hand, clicked it, and cut it off.

Yun Ji immediately asked people to put away the red silk, and shouted with a smile: "My master has arranged the best singing, dancing, drinking and food for you, please!"

After those dignitaries entered, the pedestrians who came and went to watch the excitement also entered Fenglaiyi Pavilion one after another. Suddenly, the shops that had been silent for more than a month on this street suddenly became lively. Compared with Yunxiao Tower and Tingfeng Tower The big restaurant is exactly the same.

"Sing and dance, get up!" Arranging everyone to take their seats, Yun Ji clapped three times, and the stage covered by the curtain on the first floor instantly caught everyone's eyes.

All the dancers have neat ponytail hair, red dance costumes, and soft-soled dancing shoes of the same color on their feet. They dance back and forth as the musicians play, with small movements, suddenly looking like they are walking.

Then, a mysterious woman in white clothes and a veil appeared, and a singing voice mixed with spiritual power reached everyone's ears.

"In the vast sea of ​​stars, stick to a dream..."

The woman in white shuttled back and forth among the dancers in red, and her singing was ups and downs, fascinating. When the woman in white suddenly stood still on the high platform in the center of the stage, she said loudly: "I walked across the south of the Yangtze River, and the waiting face is like the opening and falling of a lotus flower." ·······In the vast sea of ​​people, we are all passers-by in other people's worlds, but fortunately, Fenglaiyi Pavilion is waiting for you to live in, and you will meet people if you are destined!"

After the curtain call and stepping down, the crowd came to their senses, and the thunderous applause went from the first floor to the third floor with almost no gaps.

Yunji appeared on the stage at the right time, with nothing but the red curtains around her, her deep voice sounded slowly, accompanied by the sound of silk and bamboo, "The song "In order to meet you" is our Fenglaiyi Pavilion's love for the world. Blessings from people are also the best expectations for the future. When you come here today, acquaintances and strangers all live by fate. I, Fenglaiyige, will provide you with the most considerate service. Next, our service staff will give you Demonstrating the usage of our new dishes and other procedures, singing and dancing will continue, everyone has fun!"

After the words fell, Yun Ji also disappeared in the red curtain.

Feng Qiwu asked Zisu to bring Lan Xin, Han Yu and the others to Ranzihao's elegant room, and then went to say hello to Shen Youliehuo and the others. After all, they were invited by themselves, and it was okay to leave the guests there without saying a word. outrageous.

"Duanhua sees His Royal Highness the Crown Prince" saluted like Shen Youlie, and then said to the envoys: "Duanhua has seen you all, you must be tired today, and there was such an accident before, this dinner should be regarded as a feast." I am the host of King Hanjiang, and everyone is stunned, everyone, please don't be polite, let's not enjoy ourselves."

"It's natural. The Fenglaiyi Pavilion is indeed amazing, but I don't know if it is the talent of Princess Duanhua or the beauty of King Hanjiang?" Chu Bozhao waved his fan and looked at the surrounding decorations and the singing and dancing below. , as well as the special shape of the stove and grill full of curiosity.

Feng Qiwu chuckled lightly and said: "It's not a brilliant talent, it's just that I got a miscellaneous diary by chance and just happened to see it. I heard that both Prince Chu and Prince Zhicheng like wine tasting, singing and dancing. If you are interested, eat and drink to your heart's content. After you’re done, you might as well go to Hongxiu Zhao to have a look, maybe it will suit Prince Chu’s wishes!”

An Nongying also said after hearing the words: "Princess Duanhua, I heard that your Fenglaiyi Pavilion is divided into two parts: leaning on the leaning bridge and red sleeve move. I don't know what is the difference between the two?"

"Of course, this red-sleeved trick is mainly about singing and dancing, supplemented by games that are more suitable for women, such as billiards, cards, poetry, books, piano and chess, etc., as well as the kind of songs just now. If anyone is interested, we will also It can be taught, and the leaning bridge is set up for men. In addition to spirits and weapons, there are also some physical exercise programs, such as foot balls, archery learning, equestrian competitions, boxing competitions, etc. Although there are differences between men and women, it is just In order to get what they need, if there are women who are interested in leaning on the leaning bridge, or men like to enjoy singing and dancing in the red sleeves, it is not a bad idea to take a rest."
