Your Majesty, Please Stop!

Chapter 58: Poem on the Drunken Heart Tower

Maid Haitang knew that the young master was praising someone with these idioms, and couldn't help but chuckle, "Young master, you're using idioms randomly again."

Shangguan Fanqing clicked his tongue, "Indeed, he's handsome. Haitang, the young master will help you catch him and make him your husband. Wouldn't that be a perfect match?"

Haitang secretly glanced at Xin Zhuo and blushed like a persimmon, then twisted her body shyly, "Young master, I feel embarrassed!"

"Just tell me if you're willing or not."

"I, I am willing, but, but the young master may not be willing."

"Who cares about him? We'll make him explode like popcorn."

Shangguan Fanqing was about to take action when a good play unfolded on the stage in front of them.

Xin Zhuo also looked towards the stage and was momentarily stunned.

They saw a tall man, nine feet tall, with a strong build and a face smeared with terrible makeup. He had false teeth and grinned, "Yiyaya, I am the bandit king of Fulong Mountain, Xin Zhuo. I have eight thousand bandits under my command, invincible wherever I go!"

The words "bandit king Xin Zhuo" seemed to have a strange power. The noisy hall instantly quieted down, and everyone looked over.

To be honest, compared to the battle between the official soldiers and the rebels outside the city, the people in the city were more interested in the fight between the four major families of Fulong Mountain and the bandit king.

Apart from most people placing bets, it was also because the former was too bloody and lacked twists and turns, while the latter easily allowed people to imagine various scenarios, such as a miserable person turning to banditry, a master killing enemies, or suffering serious injuries. If there was also a scene of a tragic farewell between a pair of lovers, it would be perfect.

Sure enough, as soon as "Xin Zhuo" showed off, someone rushed onto the stage to fight him. This person claimed to be Song Dongxi from the Song family. The two fought fiercely for three hundred rounds, and "Xin Zhuo" had his head chopped off with a single blow. Then a female bandit named Cui Ying'er hurriedly went on stage to bid him a tearful farewell, and finally committed suicide, accompanied by a melancholic and melodious tune.

"Great!"

"It's good, applause!"

Thunderous applause erupted from below.

Xin Zhuo reluctantly clapped his hands a few times, never expecting that he would see himself portrayed in such an exaggerated manner and performance on the stage in the capital city.

As the applause subsided, the audience waited for a while, but the play didn't continue. Someone became unhappy and angrily pounded the table, "What's the meaning of this? Huh? Daddy paid for the Chen family to behead Xin Zhuo, why did the Song family finish their performance and then it ended? It's unlucky! Daddy won't accept this."

Another person angrily exclaimed, "Damn it, Daddy bought the Yuan family, but it's not enough. I want to see Yuan family behead Xin Zhuo's dog head!"

"Daddy bought the Murong family for three hundred and ninety-two taels. If I lose money, should I come to Zuixin Tower to collect? The Murong family must behead a hundred dog heads."

"Ah, acting... " The owner of the theater troupe who bought the winning play from the Song family sighed helplessly and had no choice but to arrange for the actors to continue playing various major families and take turns beheading Xin Zhuo's dog head.

Xin Zhuo touched his neck and felt a bit awkward. Beheading was one thing, but there was always a scene of bitter love at the end. I reluctantly accepted your arrangement of Cui Ying'er and Han Qimang, but where did Zhang San's wife and Li Widow come from? Do I know them?

Why isn't there Su Miaojin? The Thief King and the Miss of the official family, wouldn't that be more dramatic? These third-rate screenwriters are so unreliable.

At this moment, Su Miaojin, who was already standing outside Zuixin Tower, felt a strange warmth in her ears as she watched the lively brothel. She couldn't help but stare blankly.

She couldn't see the situation inside clearly, but she was sure that the young man with the dressed-up appearance was Xin Zhuo!

This came from the familiarity and understanding that had developed during those unconventional days of close contact!

And based on her understanding of Xin Zhuo, it was entirely possible for him to come to the city while being chased. He had the courage and means to do so.

But... did he come to visit the brothel for a moment of pleasure, or did he have another purpose?

On the other hand, Murong Yunxi didn't have so many thoughts. She cursed angrily at Zuixin Tower, gritting her teeth, "You little thief, you actually went in. I misjudged you. I was wrong to pay attention to you, you big pig's hoof, unfaithful person, bah!"

The maids and guards around them looked at each other, and a maid whispered, "Second Miss, be careful with your words. That young master doesn't even know you!"

"I don't care. Do you know what divine intercourse is? I've even..." After all, she was a young girl, and Murong Yunxi couldn't continue speaking. She ended up stomping her feet heavily and said, "Anyway, hmph!"

Su Miaojin looked at Murong Yunxi, not knowing what had gotten into her. Truly, there must be a sister if there is a brother. She turned and left.

Let that little thief Xin Zhuo do whatever he wants. Why should I care?

"Miss!" Dong Ling and a group of maids and guards quickly followed.

...

The performance in Zuixin Tower finally ended.

Xin Zhuo, who had been beheaded dozens of times, estimated that it was almost time and couldn't hold back any longer. He waved his hand and called over the woman in charge not far away, "Manager, come here. I want to see Xiaoli Hua!"

The sound wasn't particularly loud, but the three characters "Xiao Li Hua" seemed quite special.

The bustling hall, filled with discussions about the "Chop Xin Zhuo's Dog Head" scene, instantly quieted down again, and many people's expressions changed.

Although the four major families were large and had never cared about the red-light district, who among those present wasn't a simple and honest person? Who didn't know that Xiao Li Hua was the forbidden fruit of Young Master Song?

This person really has guts... huh?

When they saw Xin Zhuo clearly, the crowd couldn't help but be stunned. Even though he was a handsome young man, it seemed that he wasn't someone difficult to accept, even in the presence of Xiao Li Hua.

"Hahaha, Young Master, why go for women when men are available? I'll offer a hundred taels, come with me and have a carefree time?" Someone couldn't help but mockingly say.

"I'll offer three hundred taels!"

"I'll offer five hundred taels!"

"I'll offer three thousand taels!" Young Master Jiang Hezhu stared at Xin Zhuo with fiery eyes. "I am Jiang Hezhu of the Du Kang Mansion. I greatly admire heroes from all over the world and would like to travel together with the young brother..."

"Young Master, please help Young Master Xin. These people are so disgusting!" The maid, Haitang, couldn't help but vigorously shake her young master's arm.

Shangguan Fanqing laughed helplessly. "Oh, so you're feeling sorry for him?"

"I'm not, it's just..." Haitang shyly lowered her head.

At this moment, there was a loud bang, and the sturdy pear wood table in front of Xin Zhuo shattered into pieces, leaving several cracks on the floor.

He turned around, full of anger. "A bunch of idiots! Daddy will beat you to death with one strike. Shut up and sit down!"

I don't know if there are any experts present, but getting angry without any conflicting interests, it's not possible to resort to violence just because they're visiting a brothel, right?

The crowd instantly quieted down, staring blankly at the broken table and the cracks on the marble floor. This... at least a seventh-grade True Qi fluctuation.

At this age...

Could it be that he's an unfamiliar young master from one of the four major families?

"Just kidding, my apologies."

Many people awkwardly cupped their fists and obediently sat down.

Even Jiang Hezhu's eyes flashed with surprise. He chuckled and took a seat.

"Young Master!" Haitang's face changed slightly.

Shangguan Fanqing's gaze narrowed. "I know who he is now!"

The woman in charge was also dumbfounded. She hurriedly ran up to Xin Zhuo and stopped the previous mockery. "Young... Young Master, I don't know your identity, but do you know about Xiao Li Hua..."

Before she could finish, Xin Zhuo had already taken out two gold ingots and lowered his voice. "I know she is Murong Lei's woman. Actually, it was Murong Young Master who asked me to pass on a few words to her. I dare not have any improper thoughts. All this money is for you!"

The money was from the Fierce Tiger Gang, stolen and spent without any hesitation.

The woman in charge took the gold and was stunned for a moment. "Is it true?"

"It's true!"

"Good!" The woman in charge hurriedly went upstairs. After a while, she came back down with a coquettish smile. "Miss Xiao Li Hua said that it's fine to just say a few words, but no matter who sent you, you must have talent. Rude people are not welcome. The young master needs to present two poems, untitled, and can freely express himself!"

This can't be done either? Has Xiao Li Hua changed her mind about Murong Lei, or are there too many rules for these brothel entertainers?

Xin Zhuo thought for a moment. He had memorized quite a few poems, so he didn't feel any psychological burden. "No problem, where should I write them?"

The woman in charge pointed to a blank wall opposite, covered with white paper. It was wonderful, easy to copy and leave behind, and if it wasn't good, it could be torn off casually.

"Alright!" Xin Zhuo stood up.

"Prepare the ink and brush!" The woman in charge's eyes flashed with a hint of excitement.

Soon, a servant brought the ink and brush.

Xin Zhuo stepped forward, under the curious gazes of countless people, and wrote down two poems.
