Evergreen Immortal.

Chunyan is downstairs.

Warm red lanterns are hung high and can be seen from miles away. There are dignitaries coming and going in front of the door. They are not like those in front of the hook fence. They are all filled with the sounds of women soliciting guests, making it look elegant and quiet.

It costs at least a hundred taels a night, not just to create a high-end feel.

The consumption in Jiaofangsi is not as high as here.

There was no Chunyan Tower in Qinghe before, but it was newly opened after the new city was built.

I heard that Chunyan Tower is not only found in Anning Mansion, but also has a good reputation in Yunzhou and other states.

Translated, it means a chain brand, here it is just a branch.

"Master Qu, you are here. Miss Baozhu'er misses you so much that she doesn't think about food or tea."

When the madam saw a familiar face, she immediately greeted him with a professional smile.

The wrinkles on my face are almost piling up.

It is a basic professional quality to warmly receive everyone who spends a lot of money.

Well, career.

Qu Chengfeng was delighted: "Are you serious about what you said?"

"It's absolutely true. Mr. Qu will know if Bao Zhu'er's waist is thin tonight."

Thinking of Baozhu'er's frail and boneless waist, Qu Chengfeng felt a surge of heat.

He said to the middle-aged man beside him: "Brother Xiang, we can't keep the beauty waiting, so I'll go up first."

Zhuang Mansion guard Xiang Ting showed a smile on his stern face:

"Master Qu, don't wait for me, have fun."

Just finished.

Qu Chengfeng couldn't wait to run upstairs.

"Eager."

This was Xiang Ting's evaluation of Qu Chengfeng, and he had just begun to bloom. In the first few days, he was impatient.

Men always have special feelings for the first one.

A few more would be nice.

Xiang Ting followed Qu Chengfeng's orders from the magistrate Zhuang and vigorously protected the young man's romantic journey.

In fact, most of the time he just needs to show him the door.

You don’t need anyone to teach you this, you learn so fast.

When Xiang Ting saw Qu Chengfeng going upstairs, he turned to look at the madam.

"Take the money Mr. Qu spent during this period."

When the madam heard this, her smile became even brighter, her plump buttocks trembled again and again, and an evil fire arose in Ting's lower abdomen.

"She's also an old lady."

"It's her tonight, she has to take advantage of everything."

Storytellers often say that madams always have moles on their faces and are old and ugly. This is the biggest misunderstanding that laypeople have about madams.

To become a madam, you don't have to be a top oiran, but you must have been a popular girl in the building, and you must be smart and able to get things done. Only in this way can we stand out from the crowd of sisters and become management.

In the accounting room, the madam endured the numbness coming from her lower body while looking at the account book and tapping it with an abacus. It didn't take long for her to calculate the result: "Master Xiang, the total is seven thousand three hundred taels."

Xiang Ting widened his eyes:

"How many?"

The movements of getting started stopped.

The madam repeated innocently: "Seven thousand three hundred taels."

After confirming that he heard correctly, Xiang Ting took a breath: "This little Taoist priest is really having fun!"

It took less than ten days and cost more than 7,000 taels!

But when I think about Zhuang Zhixian's instructions, I can spend whatever money I want, just go from the county government's account.

He didn't feel bad at all, it was public money spent.

He said cheerfully: "I will arrange for someone to come and tie the knot tomorrow."

The words fell.

The madam let out a soft cry, and she was hugged horizontally.

Xiang Ting grinned.

"I spent more than 7,000 taels, and everything I say tonight will be free!"

The entrance of Chunyan Pavilion.

A tall and delicate maid had already heard the news and was waiting at the door. When she saw Qu Chengfeng appeared, her voice was soft and full of resentment: "Master Qu, my girl is almost lovesick waiting for you."

How could Qu Chengfeng hear this?

"Jewel, I'm coming."

Take three steps and then two steps into the house.

It was bright and lit with candles all around. It was really a luxury to have such a light.

Full of atmosphere.

Master bedroom.

Bao Zhu'er, wearing a plum blossom dress, was sitting lazily on the couch, holding a book in her hand while tasting grapes. The maid serving her squatted beside the bed, holding Bao Zhu'er's white and delicate feet in her hands. Ya, massage the acupoints on the soles of your feet.

A benefactor once said that this pair of jade feet is worth ten thousand gold.

This is how Baozhuer got her name.

"Zhu'er, do you miss me?"

Hearing Qu Chengfeng's voice outside the door, the maid stepped aside consciously.

A gust of wind.

Qu Chengfeng took Baozhu'er into his arms.

Bao Zhu'er held her hands and pushed Qu Chengfeng's chest out while trying to resist, while complaining: "It's been seven hours and I haven't seen the young master here. He must be looking for other sisters. I don't remember Zhu'er."

Ying Ying.

Qu Chengfeng's heart almost melted, and he quickly comforted him: "I'm going to see Brother Zhuang. He told me that he has promised me to pay for your redemption."

With an identity like Qu Chengfeng's, he is very popular among wealthy people, but it is not easy to cash out.

It took him a lot of effort to get Zhuang Renhe to agree.

Bao Zhu'er was so happy that she changed her title and said anxiously: "Husband, are you serious?"

"certainly!"

Qu Chengfeng patted his chest.

Bao Zhu'er took the initiative to put her red lips to Qu Chengfeng's ear, and the fragrant breeze blew up. She was half playful and half shy:

"How should I repay my husband's kindness?"

other end.

Li Zhai.

Li Rui sat alone on the futon in the room, deep in thought.

It is not surprising that County Magistrate Zhuang Renhe knows about Wenxian Tower. As the head of a county, his intelligence work must be good.

It is reasonable to make friends with Qu Chengfeng.

Seeking immortality, who in a high position does not want to enjoy happiness forever.

But.

He looked at the smoke in front of him.

It is not his business who Qu Chengfeng wants to make friends with, and it is not his business which girl he sleeps with.

But the change of smoke is actually related to Qu Chengfeng.

At first.

Li Rui just found that the smoke would turn a little red from time to time.

At first, he did not care too much.

After all, there may be a master passing by, and the risk factor will change.

But as time goes by.

Li Rui found something wrong. The time when the smoke turned red was highly consistent with the time when Qu Chengfeng came back, which forced him to pay attention.

That's why he asked Wu Tu to help him keep an eye on Qu Chengfeng's whereabouts.

Qu Chengfeng is of noble status, but. Where can he get so much money to play in Chunyan Tower?

The status of the disciple of Wenxian Tower is of course noble.

Li Rui knew that Chunyan Tower could earn hundreds of taels for a single night. Wu Tu said that when Qu Chengfeng was happy, he would do something as gullible as Mr. Qu paying the bill tonight.

And he went there not once or twice, but more than ten times.

At least it started at several thousand taels.

Noble, noble, the key is the first "noble", and then "expensive".

It can be seen from Yao Xue's dress and behavior.

The two of them were not actually very wealthy.

Then the money he spent on pleasure in Chunyan Tower could only come from Zhuang Renhe.

"Zhuang Renhe"

Li Rui silently repeated the name.

Qu Chengfeng was only an eighth-rank official, and posed almost no threat to him, so the real threat was not Qu Chengfeng, but the magistrate Zhuang Renhe who had ulterior motives.

"What exactly is he going to do?"

Li Rui thought for a long time, but to no avail, and finally gave up helplessly.

He knew too little information about Zhuang Renhe, and could not analyze anything at all.

He glanced towards the inner courtyard in the north.

As long as Yao Xue is the amulet, nothing will happen in An Ning Wei at least.

He thought.

He felt that he should show some concern for his inner demon.

A few steps away.

Li Rui came to Yao Xue's yard.

Since that day, Yao Xue has been completely shut up. It has been several days since the girl from Wenxianlou went out.

This is a plan to close the door.

Dong, Dong, Dong.

Li Rui knocked on the door.

After a long time, the door was pushed open by Yao Xue with a creak.

Perhaps because of the long-term absence of light or the exhaustion of fighting the inner demon, Yao Xue's face looked pale, but she had a bit more of the feeling of a sick beauty.

Yao Xue looked at Li Rui with complicated eyes: "Senior, is there something wrong?"

Li Rui laughed.

If it weren't for the fairy, this room would not smell after being closed for more than half a month, and there was even a faint fragrance.

"Miss Yao, it's too dangerous to be in seclusion. Why don't you come out and relax together? Maybe it will work."

If he had said this a month ago, he would definitely not have said it.

And even if he said it, Yao Xue might not believe it.

But it's different now. Yao Xue has suffered from seclusion, and her state of mind must have changed.

The right words must be said at the right time to be effective.

Yao Xue's face really changed.

Her eyes flickered.

This stage is called the battle between heaven and man, also called the dialogue between angels and demons.

In short, it's crucial.

After a long time, Yao Xue raised her head: "Thank you, senior."

Li Rui raised his eyebrows.

"Congratulations, Miss Yao, for taking the first step."

The people in the Wenxian Tower are very perceptive. They took the most difficult step so quickly.

The human heart is the most difficult.

Yao Xue was stunned by Li Rui's sudden congratulations. Her big eyes became even bigger, and then she smiled knowingly: "Thank you, senior, for saving my life twice."

It seems normal today.

But it was a crucial day for her to break the inner demon.

Coming out of confinement.

Not just out of the room, but out of the heart.

The scary thing about the inner demon is that you don't know where it comes from and where it ends.

"Let's go, I still know a lot of good places."

Li Rui laughed.

"Qinghe is small, but there are still interesting places."

As he said that, he walked out of the yard.

Yao Xue's face showed a gentle smile, like ice and snow melting, pleasing to the eye.

Slowly followed Li Rui.

But just as Li Rui and Yao Xue walked to the front yard, they saw Wang Zhao leading Wu Tu over.

"Brother Wu?"

Li Rui was a little surprised.

He had just had a drink with Wu Tu yesterday, and today he actually came to his house.

Wu Tu looked solemn.

He didn't say anything, but looked at Wang Zhao first, and then at Yao Xue behind Li Rui.

Li Rui immediately understood what Wu Tu meant.

He had a guess in his mind.

He waved at Wang Zhao: "Xiao Zhao, go to the prison first."

"Yes."

Wang Zhao nodded obediently and walked out of the house quickly.

Wu Tu looked at Yao Xue again.

Li Rui then spoke: "It's okay, brother Wu, just tell me what you want to say."

Seeing that Li Rui was no longer shy, Wu Tu took a deep breath:

"Brother Li, Qu Chengfeng is dead!"
