The autumn rain continued, and the entire Lin'an City was shrouded in a humid night, looking gloomy and lonely. At this moment, it is already the third watch, and most of the streets and alleys are already empty, and the lights are dim. But there are always some places that are always lively and lively, such as places like Wanchun Garden.

Today's Mid-Autumn Festival, originally every year on this day, Wanchun Garden will organize some lively Mid-Autumn Festival activities for ordinary people. For example, organizing a red boat tour of the West Lake, or holding a lantern festival in Wanchun Garden, such as collecting poems on the spot, Qin Xiqing singing, and so on. All this is a gimmick, the real purpose is to make Wanchunyuan more famous and Qin Xiqing more popular. Of course, there is also the meaning of festive celebration. After all, the annual Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the most important festivals for the people of the Great Song Dynasty. But this year's Mid-Autumn Festival, a disappointing autumn rain made this Mid-Autumn Festival boring, without the light of the bright moon overhead, the entire Mid-Autumn Festival lost too much artistic conception, not to mention the rain.

Because of this, Wanchun Garden's original scheduled activity of singing on the West Lake cruise was canceled, but it couldn't do nothing, so it was temporarily changed to a Mid-Autumn Festival song party led by Qin Xiqing in Wanchun Garden.

At this moment, the song has come to an end. The atmosphere in the luxurious hall on the first floor of Wanchun Garden is warm. Today's attendees are naturally all people with heads and faces, and there is no moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the most regrettable thing is that this group of people who have no worries about food and clothing, and there is less reason for drinking and having fun. Therefore, being able to come to Wanchun Garden to listen to music and recreation is not a kind of compensation. Of course, Wanchun Garden's Qin Xiqing hasn't appeared in public to sing for a long time, and since July, Qin Xiqing has started her annual summer vacation, and she has not appeared in everyone's field of vision. Today's Mid-Autumn Festival is his first public appearance after taking a break from summer, so he naturally wants to see it.

Throughout the night, Qin Xiqing sang ten tunes, which meant perfection. When Qin Xiqing finished singing the last song, the song meeting was about to end, but at the same time, it also reached the final climax. Because in the last period of the Quhui, some qualified characters can get the opportunity to drink tea and chat with Qin Xiqing in person, express their admiration, and talk about the past. Of course, this is also Wanchunyuan's gold-absorbing activity tonight. Because those who are eligible for this opportunity will have to spend a huge amount of money. This is also a time for everyone to show off their wealth, and no one wants to admit it and be despised at such a time.

Not long ago, after a round of secret competition, the ten lucky winners with the most bounties got the opportunity to go to the front and get close contact with Qin Xiqing. This competition is secret, but it is fair. Everyone got a delicate ivory pick board before starting, and anyone who wanted to get close to Qin Xiqing wrote the amount of the bounty on the board and wrapped it in a red cloth. In the end, it was collected by the steward of Wanchun Garden and ranked. The top ten guests in the bounty will automatically get the opportunity to drink tea and chat with Qin Xiqing.

It's a simple and crude approach, but it's also fair and equitable. Strength determines everything, and the more money you give, the more you have. Those who fail don't have to be entangled, others have a lot of money, so what else is there to say? Bounties and tips are announced on the spot, and there is no dispute that you are not among the ten, because you yourself know whether the amount you wrote is in the lowest tenth. not among the ten, but you will not be asked to take out the money. Wan Chun Yuan is not insatiable, although everyone has asked for more places, but they only set ten places each time, which also makes everyone feel more and more that Wan Chun Yuan has a conscience, and at the same time, they feel that the quota is precious.

The amount of the tenth reward of today's bounty is three thousand taels of silver, and those who are less than three thousand taels of silver can only look at others and Qin Xiqing with envy. Talking and chatting with Qin Xiqing at close range, and even getting some small objects from her, this is a supreme honor and praise for these people who are obsessed with Qin Xiqing. Everyone was daydreaming, thinking that Qin Xiqing was extra special to herself. Although all this was exchanged for silver, it was willing.

The first reward was Qin Tan, and he gave a reward of five hundred taels of gold, one tael of gold is thirteen taels of silver, that is to say, the number of his reward is six thousand five hundred taels of silver. For ordinary people, this is money that they can't earn in ten lifetimes or hundreds, but for people like Qin Tan, this is just a drop in the bucket. The treasures treasured in the Getian Pavilion in his grandfather Qin Hui's back garden, any one of them was worth a fortune. There was a mountain of gold and silver in the secret room. Every year on Grandpa's birthday, there are nearly 100,000 taels of gift money alone, and some people come to visit Grandpa, and the gifts are thousands of taels of silver. The silver came too simply and easily to be worth mentioning.

Qin Tanzhi sat satisfactorily in the tent at the front of the hall, which was separated from everyone in the hall by a red gauze tent to form a small separate space. At this moment, sitting in front of him was the peerless stunner Qin Xiqing, who was as beautiful as a goddess descending to earth. This made Qin Tan feel a little red and heartbeat, and even a little flustered.

Qin Tan secretly scolded himself for being unproductive, although he was crazy about this woman, but he was the fifth son of the Qin Mansion, how could he lose his temper in front of a woman in a green house? However, whenever his eyes fell on Qin Xiqing, who was wearing a long black dress, a beautiful face, and a delicate figure, he couldn't help but feel ashamed of himself. In addition to these, he also had an urge to rush up and hold this woman in his arms and play with it wantonly.

"Qin Gongzi, please use tea. Thank you for your kindness, I can't thank you enough. Qin Xiqing elegantly brewed a cup of tea and put it in front of Qin Tan, and said in a mansheng voice.

"Hahaha, it should be, it should be. Miss Xiqing just didn't give this son a chance, otherwise this son would take more care of Miss Xiqing. A fairy-like character like Miss Xiqing shouldn't have shown her head like this and worked hard to make a living. Qin Tan laughed.

Qin Xiqing said lightly: "Qin Gongzi said that he laughed, Xiqing is just an ordinary woman, but she can't afford to be a god, so she has to blaspheme the gods." Xiqing doesn't feel hard, with a person like Qin Gongzi who generally cherishes Xiqing, Xiqing feels very lucky. If you can please you with your meager skills, Xiqing will be satisfied. ”

Qin Tan smiled and said, "What you said is right, it's good if you feel happy." But you're not a meager skill, it's a miraculous skill. My son loves to listen to your tunes, to be honest, my son also knows a little about music, and I really want to have a separate discussion with Miss Xiqing. It's a pity that after so many invitations, you don't want to go to the appointment. Hey, my Qin Tan's face is not enough, in the eyes of Miss Xiqing, my son is afraid that he is nothing, right? ”

Qin Xiqing smiled and said: "How can the son be arrogant, the son is a talent and has a prominent family background, who dares to say that the son is nothing?" Childe laughed. Xiqing just never goes out of private churches, not disrespectful to his son. This is the rule that Xiqing set for herself, and I ask my son to understand. ”

Qin Tan smiled: "I naturally understand, I'm not angry with the girl at all." Still, I want to have a reluctant request. Next month is my grandmother's 60th birthday, and I would like to invite Miss Xiqing to my house to sing a song to celebrate her birthday. My grandmother liked to listen to music the most, and this is not a congregation, this is to celebrate the birthday of an old man, which is not only my filial piety, but also a merit. Miss Xiqing will not refuse the wish of a person who wants to fulfill his filial piety, right? ”

Qin Xiqing frowned and was silent, not knowing how to refuse for a while. This Qin Tan has pestered himself many times, and he has rejected his invitation many times, which has already made him a little annoyed. Although he is not afraid of him, he is Qin Hui's grandson after all, and it is not good for him to really offend him, both public and private. So, if you want to refuse, you need to find a good excuse.

Just as Qin Xiqing was groaning, he suddenly heard someone outside the tent shouting in a low voice: "Fifth son, fifth son, come out quickly, the villain has something important to report." ”

Qin Tan frowned and shouted, "Can't you talk about it later?" But he came to disturb me and Miss Qin's conversation. ”

The man hurriedly said: "I can't wait, Childe, it's a matter over there in Sanyuanfang, something big has happened." ”

Qin Tan was stunned when he heard this, and his brows furrowed. Qin Xiqing on the side was making tea, and the three words of Sanyuanfang were slightly shocked, and he turned his head sideways and pricked up his ears.

Qin Tan stood up and arched his hand towards Qin Xiqing: "Girl, wait, I have some personal matters to deal with, and I will come to have tea with the girl later." ”

Qin Xiqing nodded and said, "Childe is free." ”

Qin Tan got up and walked to the side of the tent and picked up the tent and walked out, Qin Xiqing got up quickly and walked to the side of the tent to eavesdrop.

"What's going on?" Qin Tan's low voice with some annoyance came.

"Childe, Sanyuanfang missed it, and the person Zhang Daquan went to do business fell into an ambush surnamed Fang. The surnamed Fang had already prepared, and as soon as they entered, they fell into a trap. The surname Fang is really good, and the ten people who went there...... Reputedly...... Nine were killed by him. ”

"What? No way. Qin Tan screamed in surprise, but immediately realized that he couldn't be loud, so he lowered his voice and shouted, "He's alone? Kill Zhang Daquan and the nine of them? Are you crazy? ”

"Fifth son, it's not that the villain is crazy, it's Zheng Laoba who escaped back that he said that he was at the gate of Wanchun Garden. He saw with his own eyes that Fang Zi'an killed someone, and he escaped by luck and came back to report the news. If you don't believe me, ask him personally. He seemed to be frightened, and he said that Fang Zi'an was not a human, but a demon. Killing people is like chopping melons and vegetables, Zhang Daquan and a few of them can't make a move in front of him. ”

Qin Tan was stunned for a long time, and said in a low voice: "A group of fools, ten people can't deal with one, fools, fools." Is this guy so fierce? How dare you kill someone like this? How dare he be so unscrupulous? Go, call someone to take a look, don't let him destroy the corpse. If this is true, he will not be able to escape the crime of murder. ”

"Okay, the villain will go and gather the brothers."

Walking away in a hurry, Qin Xiqing returned to his seat, and Qin Tan opened the tent with an iron face and walked in. Qin Xiqing said: "Qin Gongzi, please use tea, this is made in moderation, and the heat and cold are just right." ”

Qin Tan arched his hand and said, "Let's drink tea another day, Miss Qin, I still have some important things to do, so I can only say goodbye today." ”

Qin Xiqing said: "Ah, is this gone?" Childe still has time for a stick of incense. ”

Qin Tan said: "No way, the matter is urgent, and I don't want to leave the girl." Farewell. ”

"That's fine, Childe walks slowly, thank you Childe for your support." Qin Xiqing stood up and saluted.

Qin Tan arched his hand, turned around and picked up the tent and walked away quickly.

Qin Xiqing sat down slowly, her face was pale, her heart was pounding hard, and her fingers were shaking a lot.

Fang Zi'an...... He's so bold, he's ...... It really killed someone. How good is that? How good is that? This man is also too impulsive. I'm in trouble. He...... He was alone against ten people and killed nine? Oh my God, he killed nine people, and that's so brutal. What to do? What to do? Why hasn't Ling'er come back yet? Everyone else has gotten the news, and I'm waiting for her in Sanyuanfang, why hasn't she come to report the news.

When she was anxious, the tent moved, her face turned pale, and Ling'er, who was wet on her body, finally appeared in her field of vision.
