The fourth master of the Qing Dynasty escaped from his concubine

Chapter 57 Buying a house is not a matter of money

The horse's hooves clicked on the ground, stirring up a burst of mundane dust.

In the carriage, the two people sat opposite each other.

"Why are you staying in an inn?" Qian Lanlan held his chin, his eyes were a little sleepy and his eyelids were slightly drooped.

Old Fourteen said in a deep tone, "Speaking of this matter, you have an inescapable responsibility!"

Why is it her responsibility?
Qian Lanlan rubbed her eyes, raised her eyelids, and asked, "What does it have to do with me?"

Old Fourteen: "I don't want to say it."

It's not like I took over his mansion!

He's not the one who wants to bet!

It’s not a gambling game where money is rotten!
Tracing back to the origin, in the end this account can only be attributed to Qian Rulan.

It's fine if I don't ask about the money. But when I ask, Old Fourteen will feel resentful!
It's all the fault of this rotten man. He made some kind of gamble and was stabbed by the emperor for no reason to comfort those people whose wives were separated and their families were ruined.

It was obviously a matter of willing to accept defeat, but when it came to him, it became gambling to make money, disrupting people's hearts and destabilizing the current situation.

He turned his head, and outside the window, the bustling lantern market greeted Old Fourteen's gaze.

You don’t want to say it, and I don’t want to hear it yet!

He closed his eyes and slowed down his breathing. Not knowing how far the journey was, Qian Lanlan wanted to sleep first, "Call me when you get there."

Hearing the sound, Old Fourteen turned around and saw Qian Lanlan covering his eyes with his thin arms. Maybe the light was too bright, so he lowered the curtain in his hand.

Leaning on the cushion, his eyes glanced from Qian's rotten neck, and he reached out to touch his own Adam's apple. The fourteenth's pupils shrank slightly.

Then, he quietly arched his body and approached Qian Shanlan.

With her eyes closed, Qian Lanlan felt that the dim light in front of her eyes suddenly dimmed, and it seemed that it was no longer so dazzling. She lowered her arm that was blocking the light.

However, danger was reaching out to her.

A hand as cold as black iron was fixed on her neck again, and with a slight press, Old Fourteen discovered that it was indeed different from his neck.

There's a piece missing.

No Adam's apple!

What does this mean?
Old Fourteen's eyes were dark...

Then, a fist hit the bridge of his nose. The bones hit each other and felt like they were about to break.

Then, as soon as the tip of his tongue touched it, he tasted the sweetness. He stretched out his hand and touched it, and it bled.

Qian Lanlan was angry and looked at Old Fourteen with fire in his eyes: "What, do you want to strangle me to death when I'm not prepared?"

The most annoying thing is that your life is threatened!

Old Fourteener, you still hit the muzzle of the gun!

"You..." Old Fourteen covered the bridge of his nose and cursed angrily, "Do you know what you are? You beat me up one after another!"

Two of his eyes were blackened and one of his noses was smashed. Will his mouth be the next step?
Old Fourteen subconsciously reached out to protect his lips.

"What am I?" Qian Lanlan yelled, "I am your uncle!"

Old Fourteen couldn't bear it anymore, pointed at Qianlan and cursed: "You rootless eunuch!"

"Dirty thing!" At the end, he added another vicious word.

The first sentence doesn't hurt much, but the second sentence is about money being rotten, which is unbearable!

She grabbed the outstretched finger of the fourteenth old man, smashed it hard on the back of the hand, and cursed angrily: "You brat, take back those last words of yours!"

"Ouch, ouch, ouch -" Old Fourteen could only hear the sound of a dog barking.

It hurt so much that Old Fourteen cried out for mercy: "Stop! Ouch, ouch, ouch..."

"From now on, if I see you spitting out your dog's mouth again, I will punch you and give you a broken tooth!"

Seeing the thin fist clenching into a stone and about to swing it towards his mouth, Old Fourteen nervously stretched out his hand to cover his lips.

In the end, it was a false alarm!
Qian Lanlan pushed hard, released Old Fourteen's fingers, and leaned forward with his arms folded, his eyes filled with hatred for Old Fourteen.

Why do you say she is a rootless eunuch!

Isn't it too humiliating?

Even so, Qian Lanlan still had the courage to endure such slander, and the eunuch also had to bear the identity of half a man.

In this day and age, it’s good to be a man and move freely.

I thought this boy was a child of a tycoon family with both black and white ideas, but I didn't expect him to be a rootless person. The contempt in the old fourteen's heart grew several meters taller.

"Are you a eunuch in the palace, or a eunuch of some brother?"

We need to know the identity of this boy clearly. If he is a spy for one of his brothers, it would be bad if he still entrusts him with important tasks.

You still have to establish relationships with others, and Qian Lanlan doesn't want to make it that complicated.

To retract one lie is to cover up thousands of lies.

Still need to be suspected!

"I'm not a eunuch!" Qian Lanlan bluntly denied this troublesome identity.

"You're not a eunuch, then why don't you have an Adam's apple!" Surprise flooded Old Fourteen's face, "Don't tell me that you cut off the thing that carries on the family line!"

In that case, I will respect you as a man!
It's so fierce, and I'm not afraid of the blood flowing like a river!
Qian Lanlan held his forehead in embarrassment, what kind of imagination does the fourteenth have?

"No cut."

"I was born without an Adam's apple!" she added.

"Then you weren't born with the same stuff as us men?" Old Fourteen couldn't help but smile, his eyebrows were crooked and his face was red with anger.

"Yes, yes, everything you said is right!" As long as you treat me as a man!

What would happen if Old Fourteen knew she was a woman?
I don’t know about Qian Lanlan, but at least men in this era don’t respect women very much!
She has now gradually gained financial independence, and with just a little more effort, she can seek political status.

This status of a woman will only prevent her from doing what men do!

"Really?" Old Fourteenth really couldn't bear it any longer, and the laughter he had been holding back for a long time burst out: "Hahaha...hahaha..."

"I said...you really...didn't..."

Those evil eyes glanced under Qian Lanlan from time to time. Her face was dark and she was greatly humiliated!
When he went up, he punched Old Fourteenth in the stomach a few times, but his belly was too hard, his muscles were slightly bulging, and the money looked like it had been smashed on the steel plate.

Fortunately, the first few times I targeted vulnerable areas!
"If you had shown some martial ethics before, I would never have been injured like this!" Old Fourteen said comfortably, as if his belly was an itchy cat's paw.

"I think you may have a new injury on your face!" Qian Lanlan smiled evilly, raised his hand, and loosened the joints.

"Don't." Old Fourteen reached out and covered his mouth!
Only the mouth is intact on this face, and other parts are almost seriously injured!

This person should have some morals, right?

You should be merciful where you get hurt.

"Do you think I want to hit you in the mouth?" Qian Lanlan lowered his chin and said with a smile: "You have been attacked twice, how do you know I won't do it again?"

Qian Lanlan responded to the evil look in the old fourteen's eyes just now. The fists in his hands were clenched as tightly as stones. They were very powerful and seemed to be able to strike at any time with lightning speed!
Old Fourteen covered his lower body, his face changed drastically, "You are shameless!"

"If you curse again, I won't be polite!" Qian Lanlan scolded him rudely.

"Okay -" The fourteenth man rarely softened. He was really afraid of being beaten, okay?

Encountered such a scoundrel, a shameless person!
...a moment of silence.

Amidst the faint fragrance, Old Fourteen was silent for a while, and then he said, "What kind of incense are you using?"

Qian Lanlan closed his eyes and slept lightly, and said in a daze: "It's useless."

"Yu——" Pulling the rope, the boy driving the horse said, "Sir, the Laifu Inn has arrived."

Laifu Inn?

The literal meaning of gilding is brilliant!

It is truly the best inn in Beijing.

Qian Lanlan got out of the car with a box of notes. This was the 50 taels of remuneration given by the madam and the 5 taels of formula sold. It was more than enough to live in a presidential suite.

However, in fact, opening a house is not a matter of money.

"boom--"

When the money came up, he slapped the shopkeeper who was drooling on the counter awake.

"Boss, I'll give you a room on the third floor. I want it to be clean. Money is not an issue."

The Fourteenth Old Man had already walked towards his usual room upstairs. When he heard Qian Shanlan's words, he turned around and saw someone was still booking a room at the counter.

Didn't she say she lived like this?

Why do you still want to book a room?
Old Fourteen turned his toes upward and came down from the stairs.

Looking at the brocade clothes on the man in front of him, the old man smiled and said, "Okay."

Dear guest!

"Show me your identity document." Opening the accounting book, the old man was stained with ink.

shock!
Do I need an ID to book a room?
Have ancient inns caught up with modern hotels?

What should I do, what should I do? After saying goodbye in a hurry, I forgot my ID card!
Great!
Careless! !

The money was too much, and she wanted to avoid sleeping in the open, or at least not sleeping on the street with beggars, so she immediately smiled without any moral integrity.

"Boss, I'm in a hurry and I forgot to bring my identity document with me. Could you please give me a room?"

With that said, she took out three bills from the box and bribed them first.

When the old man saw the box full of bills, his expression changed drastically. He is so rich?

It’s a big deal!

The origin is even more unknown!
The old man looked at the money rotten calmly. He didn't look like a thief, but he was probably a wolf in sheep's clothing, disguised!

No, I would rather miss a financial sponsor than let in a thief!
Moreover, what is more important is the clear text of the imperial court...

After a while of ideological struggle, the shopkeeper said: "Sir, no one is allowed to enter the store without a clear identification document. This is the rule of this dynasty. Han people must show a clear identification document, and there is nothing I can do about it."

Seeing that he was about to eat the fat, the old man felt extremely regretful and reluctantly pushed back the banknote he was about to receive.

"What are the rules of this dynasty?" Money is rotten and my head hurts. Do I really have to live on the street?

The shopkeeper said sincerely: "Yes, and besides, you are a Han Chinese, so I am too old to take risks."

"Han Chinese?" At this moment, Qian Lanlan's brows were deeply furrowed. This identity always pops up from time to time.

That's it, I paid the entrance fee of 500 taels to the brothel last time!

"Why are the Han people treated like this!" She clenched her fists, her bones cracking, and anger was already on her brows.

"These...are all regulations." The shopkeeper expressed helplessness and pity.

Hotels for Han people are half as expensive as hotels for Manchu and Mongolian people!

Alas, there is one missing guest!
"Please--" the old man made a sign of driving away Qian Lanlan.

Hemp egg!

Qian Lanlan immediately wanted to drag Kangxi off the throne. What nonsense rules it was, it was clearly naked discrimination.

Go sleep on the street!
Qian Lanlan wrapped himself up, feeling a little cold, and walked outside holding the money box.

In the face of government orders, banknotes are useless!
"and many more……"

Just as her feet were about to step out of the door, Old Fourteen's voice came from behind, blocking her slightly hesitant steps.

Qian Lanlan turned around and saw Old Fourteen walking towards the counter and the shopkeeper was about to leave.

Did you call her?

They are talking to the shopkeeper!
Passionate!

Qian Lanlan finally walked out of the threshold silently, and the streets were still full of people and brightly lit!

Unexpectedly, she became rich overnight, but she had no place in the capital.

So lost!

What do you want money for?
For the first time, money failed, it is not everything!
When he wanted to buy a house, Yinzhen said that houses in the capital would not be sold to Han people. Now, when he wanted to live in a hotel, he was expelled because of his identity as Han people.

After all, I lost at the starting line and got a bad birth.

The world is so big, where should we go?
Qian Lanlan raised his arrogant chin, looked deeply at the stars in the sky, and twisted his neck. The brightly lit world was also full of stars.

"I told you not to leave, what are you doing?" Old Fourteener stood behind Qian Lanshan, his big palm slapping her shoulder habitually.

The shock brought Qianlanlan, who was immersed in thinking about life, back to reality. She twisted her neck and saw that Old 14's two dark circles and a red nose were sticking comically to her face.

His fair face really looks like a snowman!
The red nose is a carrot, the dark eyes are obsidian, and the thin lips are a careless outline.

"What else can you do?" He said in a low tone. He was in a bad mood because he didn't have a place to live and his money was rotten.

Old Fourteen knew this and asked, "You didn't bring any identification documents?"

"Yes." Qian Lanlan's clear eyes met Old Fourteen's young pupils.

"Don't you know who the person in front of you is and what his background is?" Old Fourteen raised his chin, as if he wanted to lose money!

Are you showing off your identity to add insult to injury?

"So, what do you want to express?" Qian Lanlan asked with his eyes shining and his eyebrows raised.

"I have made an agreement with the shopkeeper to reserve a room for you." Old Fourteen said proudly, showing off his identity again.

"Really?" Qian Lanlan smiled. Unexpectedly, the sky is the limit!
Hearing this kind of question mark, Old Fourteen immediately raised his face and said angrily:

"Could it be that if your status as the Fourteenth Master doesn't work, the dignity of us royal children will be ruined?"

"Anyway, thank you, Old Fourteen." Putting aside her arrogance, Qian Lanlan hugged Old Fourteen and said:
"No matter what kind of bad intentions you have"

what?
Being suspected so quickly?
The fourteenth man felt that his Taoism was really shallow and he needed to practice more.

In just a few seconds, the cold Xinyi fragrance was gone, but the tip of Old Fourteen's heart was still rising and falling in the fragrance.

"Dong dong..."

How decent it is for two grown men to hug each other!

Realizing the embarrassment, Old Fourteen blushed and said, "Let's go, it's getting late. I'll have to go to court in a few hours."

Also, it seems that Qian Lanlan remembers the morning meeting at five o'clock.

Then, go to bed!

The two entered the threshold and headed for the stairs.

Looking at Old Fourteen's face, Qian Lanlan thought of something, and she stopped in her tracks.

"I have something to do, let's go out first."

Old Fourteen turned around and saw a departing figure at the door.

what's up?
