Chapter 16
When the lanterns came on, the building was noisy and noisy. You could see patrons hugging girls and flirting with each other everywhere. Jing Li was speechless when she saw it. The nightlife of the ancients was so exciting!

As soon as I walked into the corridor on the second floor, the girl next to me was stopped by someone: "Damn girl, you are so busy, and you are still wandering here!"

The girl explained anxiously: "Mang Niang, Sister Haitang asked me to send the guests out, so..."

Matang Niang, who was about thirty years old, came over and said, "You go and do your work, I will send the guests down!"

The girl looked at Jingli with some embarrassment. Jingli said unconcernedly: "You go about your business. I'll go down alone."

The girl had no choice but to leave, and Matang Niang laughed playfully: "Girl, you are so brave. I have been in this building for decades, and I have seen wives who came to catch the husband, and I have seen lonely women who could not survive and sold themselves. But I have never I’ve seen guests strolling around like this girl.”

Jing Li secretly warned: "You are joking, I just met Miss Haitang by chance and came here just once. After all, this place is not where people like me should come."

Matang Niang smiled and said nothing more, leading Jingli down to the end of the corridor.

After going down to the second floor, Matang Niang took Jingli to the backyard: "It's a busy time in the front hall. The girl is so good-looking, so it's inevitable that she will be a little eye-catching. It's safer to go through the back door."

Jingli nodded. Unlike the front hall, the backyard of Wangyue Tower was silent, with a few pavilion lights flickering on and off. If it weren't for the faint noise coming from the front yard, Jingli would have thought it was the backyard of that wealthy family.

When they reached the corner of the side room, Matang suddenly tripped and fell towards Jingli. However, Jingli was secretly wary and tilted her body to touch the door next to her, which opened with a crash.

The originally dark room was now brightly lit, and Jing Li suddenly felt bad. Before, she saw that it was all dark here, but now when the door of the room was opened, the lights were bright inside. Naturally, she didn't want anyone to pay attention to this place, so she deliberately put it there. Light shielding.

When the people in the room saw Jingli, the atmosphere became a little tense for a moment. Jingli smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, it was dark and the road was slippery. I made a mistake. Please forgive me!"

A middle-aged man with a somewhat majestic look stared at Jingli closely: "Who asked you to come here?"

Before Jing Li could reply, a charming voice came: "Sir, this is the new sister in the building. She doesn't understand the rules, so please don't take offense!"

Jing Li followed the sound and saw that it was Yu He who had caused an unpleasant scene before. At this moment, Yu He was looking at Jing Li with a proud expression. She was just a country girl, but she dared to show off her face. She was really seeking death!
The fat man hugging Yu He chuckled and said, "Since I'm new here, I guess this must be very fresh and tender. Why don't we just sit next to Young Master Yang!"

Young Master Yang had a pale face and smiled extremely obscenely: "That's right! I really like this new guy. Sister Yuhe, don't take it too seriously!"

Jing Li said with a cold face: "The little girl is not from this building. She barged in by mistake today and offended everyone. Please forgive me!"

After saying that, he was about to leave, but the door slammed shut behind him.

Mr. Yang chuckled: "This new sister is so interesting. I have never seen a girl who entered this building and walked out intact. Do you not believe in my ability?" "

The people around burst into laughter, and the majestic-looking middle-aged man said coldly: "Since Mr. Yang likes you, go to him!"

Yuhe said with a sweet smile: "Master Han has already spoken, why don't you sit over quickly!" Jingli was shocked, Master Han?Could it be Master Yin Han of Qingzhou Prefecture?Suddenly there was a calculation in his mind: "I have said that I am a son of a good family, do you have to force me into prostitution? I heard that the governor of Qingzhou is an extremely upright Lord Qingtian. You are under his rule, do you still dare to do whatever you want?"

The fat man next to Yu He laughed and said: "The upright Han Qingtian? Oops! This is really... hahaha!"

The fat man smiled and fell into Yu He's arms. Then he picked up the wine bottle on the table and poured it into his mouth. The wine slowly flowed down Yu He's chest. Yu He didn't take it seriously and instead smiled and came closer.

Everyone at the banquet couldn't stop laughing. Mr. Han looked a little embarrassed, but Jing Li opened the door and left regardless.

Mr. Han put down the wine bottle abruptly: "I told you to sit down, girl, can't you listen?"

"Come here! This woman's whereabouts are suspicious. Could it be the work of the White Lotus Army? Pull her down for interrogation!"

Under the curtain, two soldiers suddenly walked out, reaching out to grab Jingli.

Jing Li was shocked. Bringing armed soldiers here would definitely not be as simple as having fun. These people must be planning something tonight.

This Yuhe is too cruel. She is not on good terms with Haitang and wants to frame herself, an unrelated person.

Jing Li held the dagger in her sleeve and planned to fight out. If she fell into the hands of these people, she would definitely not survive.

Just as he was about to take action, the door suddenly opened and Xiao Yifeng hurried over, followed by a panicked Haitang. They both breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Jingli was fine.

Xiao Yifeng raised her hands to several people in the room: "Master Han, Master Zhao, I'm offended! This girl is a guest of our Xiao family, and she accidentally bumped into everyone. Please, for the sake of the Xiao family, let this girl go!" "

Haitang hurriedly pulled Jingli behind her, avoiding the eyes of everyone in the room. As soon as she heard the girl said that Maang Niang had brought Jingli here, she knew something was wrong, and she was afraid that Yuhe had a grudge and wanted to harm Jingli.

By chance, Xiao Yifeng heard someone reported that Jingli was brought here by people from Wangyue Tower, and hurried over for fear of something happening.

Mr. Yang stood up unsteadily: "Xiao family? Who are your Xiao family? That old guy Xiao Yuandao is dead long ago!"

"Oh! I forgot, the one from your second uncle's family will soon be Princess Hejian. Thinking about it this way, the Xiao family seems to be a thing again."

Xiao Yifeng's face was a little ugly. This Young Master Yang was Yang Hao, the nephew of Princess Xiushan's ex-husband Yang Mo. Yang Mo and Princess Xiushan only had one daughter. After Yang Mo passed away, the Yang family followed the path of Princess Xiushan and adopted Yang Hao to Yang Mo can also be regarded as the heir of Princess Xiushan.

Although Yang Mo is dead, Yang Hao is very fond of Princess Xiushan. Even after Princess Xiushan remarries, he, the heir, still follows Princess Xiushan. He is not pitiful at all, but becomes more arrogant and domineering.

Xiao Yifeng ignored Yang Hao and turned to look at Mr. Han: "Sir, this girl has been a great favor to my Xiao family. Please make it convenient for me to take her away."

Mr. Han looked a little hesitant. The Xiao family is a century-old family, so he still has to show some respect. However, tonight has a very important matter and he rashly lets people leave. If that person...
