Misleading the Fourth Miss of Xiangfu

Chapter 25

Cang Xuan replied: "Returning to the master, there is no movement in the ancestral hall, and the Zhaixing Building is also very quiet."

A wry smile suddenly appeared on Chu Mu's lips. He was really tired after asking every day, but when he turned around, his smile became big and wild, as if sadness and bitterness had never disturbed him: "In this case, it's better to go with the little one." Lord, I’m going out for a drink! Those girls leaning on the red building must have missed you for a long time!”

Infected by his smile, Cangxuan smiled too, but shook his head and took three steps back: "Cangxuan dare not, the few girls sent by the master last time were enough to make Cangjin troublesome, this time I have to go again Leaning against the red building, Cang Xuan's life is really in danger."

"Haha, Cangxuan, the old man has not given you the decision to marry Cang Jin, so you have developed a habit of controlling your wife first?" Chu Mu laughed.

"Master, what are you talking about? Are you smiling so happily?" With a soft and pleasant voice accompanied by the soft footsteps unique to women, Cang Jin stood behind them with a smile on her face.

Cang Xuan's expression immediately changed, and he scratched his head in embarrassment: "Master, I remembered, the old man has something to do with me, so I'm leaving first."

After speaking, he fled in despair.

Chu Mu smiled so disregarding his image, he fell down on the soft couch, pointed at Cang Xuan's back and said, "Cang Jin, I never knew you were so scary! The number one beauty in the Qingyi Palace, how could you not be so frightening?" You have to make people happy, don’t you treat other people like this? I don’t care about other people, just don’t scare my little doctor away!”

Being ridiculed by him, Cang Jin didn't have any embarrassment on her face, she still smiled sweetly: "Master was joking, Cang Jin has always followed Master's teachings, and never forgets to greet people with a smile. If someone hadn't done something wrong, how could we meet?" Run away after seeing Cang Jin? As for the little doctor that the master said, he is very honest, how can you bully him?"

"That's good. From now on, we will send people to 'taste all the herbs' to pick him up every day at the right time, and send him back at the right time. Although he is still young, he is good at massage." Chu Mu rubbed his forehead, no It hurt so much, and it was obviously relieved a lot. This is a relief that I have never felt before.The little guy actually bargained with him and agreed to come every day after setting an hour a day, but he actually agreed.

Cang Jin complied, but she didn't understand, she used to call so many doctors, and the master refused to give them a diagnosis and treatment, but now she just let a child with inexperienced medical skills come to the house every day.He didn't say the reason, and she didn't dare to ask.She still understands the duty of honor and inferiority, master and servant.

"Master, this is an invitation from the palace. Concubine Ling is celebrating her birthday in ten days, and I invite you to attend." Cang Jin handed over a bright yellow brochure.

Chu Mu picked it up, opened it casually, and murmured: "Concubine Ling..." This post is bright yellow, which means that it is the order of Emperor Chu, and it must be impossible not to go.Unexpectedly, although Concubine Ling has no children, she can still be favored by the Emperor Chu, which is really rare.

"Have you found out who else is present?" Chu Mu threw the post on the desk with a lazy tone.

"The Prince of the East Palace, the Empress Xiande are naturally on the list, and the Seventh Prince... the outer family members include Prime Minister Ling, General Gu, Taishi Fu..." Cang Jin listed them one by one, and then said after a pause: "General Gu's granddaughter is coming Beiting hastened back."

"Gu Yanyan? She's coming back too?" Chu Mu frowned. It seemed that this banquet was not just to celebrate Concubine Ling's birthday.

Daming Ling, are you tired of waiting?

Perhaps, he was impatient to wait.

Five days later, "Yihonglou", the most popular place for fireworks in Chudu, is facing a very embarrassing situation: Xunfanglou across the street suddenly changed its name, and the half-new and old plaque turned into a brand new red gold , four big characters in the letter - "there is no beauty in the world".

This unimaginable and contrary to the name of the brothel has attracted those curious benefactors, who would have thought that they were amazed as soon as they entered, and then spread it to ten, ten to hundreds, "there is no beauty in the world" almost overnight Time has become a topic of conversation for Chudu people after dinner - not only men are talked about, but also women.

Relying on the red building, elegant room.

With a crisp sound of "ding", a glass cup hit the floor and was instantly smashed to pieces. The man sat in front of the table, wiped the stained tea on his hands with a handkerchief, curled his lips, and smiled coldly : "What did you find out? Why is everyone silent? Isn't he usually eloquent?" His tone was very cold, with a hint of calm before the storm.

Kneeling in front of him was a row of attendants in gray clothes, all bowing their heads and not daring to look at him.

"A bunch of trash! A few days ago, I asked you to follow that brat named Qiao Ling. Not only did I lose him, but even the person I sent out disappeared. Is he a god? Can he transform? Even I can't stand a kid, I raise you for nothing?" The man was obviously angry, and he threw another glass cup out, and the kneeling person on the ground trembled violently, but still didn't dare to answer.

"It's all right now, take a look, what is the reddest building in Chudu now? What about the people? Where are the guests? Where have they gone? Don't tell me that overnight, those dignitaries were all so poor that they couldn't afford to drink." I can't afford to play with women anymore!" The man stood up, a brown brocade robe complementing his slender, tall figure.His eyebrows are very thick, his skin is very white, and his originally bookish face showed disproportionate violence: "Could it be that my efforts have been in vain for three years? Compared with the assassins of the Shuramen, you are too much!" It's useless! At least they will take the money and take care of things for me. It seems that I have to tell the eldest son that it is useless to keep you!"

Hearing this, those attendants could no longer calm down, kowtowed their heads and begged: "Second Young Master, spare your life! The subordinates are ineffective, so they deserve to die. But the reason why Yihonglou's business is down today is all thanks to the one opposite." There is no beauty in the world! " If you can shirk some responsibilities, do so, the second son is notoriously vicious, and they don't want to die yet.

"There is no beauty in the world? What do you mean?" The man frowned even tighter.

"It's a newly opened brothel. Those customers saw that it was fresh, so they all went to the opposite side, so..."

"I'd like to see, what is the beauty of the world! It's ridiculous!" The man flicked his long sleeves, strode downstairs, and went straight across the street.

The man in the brown brocade robe walked downstairs quickly, and when he left the red building, his steps gradually slowed down, and he regained his usual elegance and calmness.

The "World Without Beauty" on the opposite side keeps people coming in, but it has been a long time since they came out. The flower windows that could be vaguely seen in the interior before have also been covered with a layer of light veil just right, and there is no movement inside.The man couldn't help frowning, and said to the entourage behind him, "When did Xunfang Building change its sign?" There was obviously no movement yesterday.

"Overnight." The entourage replied in fear: "The subordinates originally suppressed the business of Xunfang Building according to the order of the young master, forcing them to have nowhere to go. In the end, they had to give up at a low price. No one can compete with us for this Hualiu's business. It was quiet a few days ago, but it suddenly changed its name this morning, and then... our old customers who leaned on the red building saw that their house was mysterious, and they all... went there to join in the fun..."

The man stood there for a long time, but he didn't figure out what kind of trick they were using, so he took his long legs and strode towards the place that interested him very much.Fireworks and Willow Alley, the gold-selling cave for the rich, the best place for ecstasy, he can't lose such a good business for nothing, and he can't let his three-year-long plan be ruined. Seeing the opportunity come, how can he Maybe hand over the best business to others?

This is his first impression when he approached "No Beauty in the World". The signboard is brand-new, with a few big characters in red gold, combined with the courtyard that no one cares about. It is extremely contradictory, but it makes people curious: since It is "there is no beauty in the world", why is it still so arrogant?As if not afraid of being unapproached by others, where does such self-confidence come from?

After entering the door, the eyes suddenly dimmed. Everyone knows that the lobby of a brothel is the most taboo to be dark. It can be intoxicated and hazy, but it can’t be dark. The guests are there for entertainment. Who wants to grope around the environment that cannot be seen clearly ?

However, with a very strange psychology, he actually wanted to see what would be inside, maybe it was just the master's bluff——

In the dark and oppressive atmosphere, he felt more and more irritated, and almost wanted to turn around and leave. Suddenly, a cluster of hazy flower shadows appeared in front of him. It was the lost person who suddenly became rejoiced as if he saw a way out of panic, and then there was a slight breeze from his nose that sent a faint fragrance of flowers, which made him confused whether he came here to find flowers or whether he was at the end of the road. Where there should be a willow and a bright flower.

"My lord, is this really a brothel?" The attendant behind him was stunned for a long time before he murmured.

Only then did the man come back to his senses, he suppressed the joy rising in his heart, and remembered the purpose of his trip.He didn't come to admire, but to investigate the opponent's details.

"Let's go." He continued to walk forward, and the flowers that he couldn't see clearly just now appeared in front of his eyes-dianthus flowers.Very common flowers can be seen everywhere in Chudu, and they are the most humble flower species that the poorest and most nobles disdain.However, the owner's design is very ingenious. Various carnations are randomly placed in the spacious space, leaning on the rockery with suitable heights, and surrounding the small flowing pool water. They are colorful but not dazzling. scenery.

Boundary...

Once again, the man withdrew his mind from the beautiful scenery and looked up. This was no longer the place where the vulgar fans gathered in Xunfang Building—the hall that was originally supposed to receive guests was expanded three times, and was divided into two parts by graceful green plants. One by one private space, not big, but ingenious.He counted one by one, one, two, three... a total of twelve... There are no rules, but there are some rules, none of them are the same, and none of them exist apart from the whole.
