Chapter 376: Weiyang (1)
It was late at night, the lights on the river were endless, and most of the city had already slept.
In this time, the departing people did not have the previous loud noise, and the number of people was not much, or they went out from the side door alone, or they were talking and laughing, and the servants brought the car, and everyone gradually left in different directions.
The lights were dimly lit, and she looked at the window for a while. This is not the end of the day in the alum building, there are still many proud talents, and the frustrated officials stay in the rooms in the alum building, and will accompany the girls until the next morning. But this night has indeed gone deeper.
The pedestrians who returned at night carried lanterns through the alleys, and the night watchman stopped on the side of the road, and passed by the lone carriage, from which he looked out, the lights of every house were still gradually extinguished, and the barking of dogs could be heard in the distance, and some people were talking, but the words could not be heard clearly. The chariot drove back to the scholar's mansion, and a carriage with the sign of the Taiwei's Mansion drove past in view.
She looked at these and took a sip of tea. The guests have been gone for a long time, the tea has long been cold, she has been raised by the best since she was a child, she does not like this kind of tea, the entrance is the bitterness of the tea, and it is clearly sandwiched with the blandness of the water, but she often still habitually tastes it, and then ...... Cover your lips with your sleeves and spit it out. When she went out of the door, the maid followed her and went back with her to the other side of the courtyard.
The girls in Alum Tower, some are performing arts, some are selling their bodies, and most of them are both. It's late, and those who stay here are of course rich people who spend money to have fun, and there are also many guests who are considered to be talented women. If you don't study it deeply, there are many examples of sincere feelings and respect, and the money will not be spent. But each other will probably still feel that it is worth it. At this time, there are many stories of talented and beautiful women. Many women are also willing to defend themselves for a certain man, in the alum building, this kind of thing will not be prohibited, and those who sell their art are actually more expensive than those who sell their bodies. Although there are not many things to really get together, get married, and have a reunion, it is not nothing, and it can always leave people with good hope.
Thereupon. Walking through the courtyard below, she was greeted by several sisters, some of whom had no guests, and went back to their rooms or rested outside. Some were serving the guests, and when they came to close the door, they greeted her, and the atmosphere under the lanterns here. It's a bit similar to my family. It is just a sign of peace, but it may not be really a harmony. Out of the large courtyard here, when I was about to return to the small courtyard where Oiran lived, I met two women head-on, these two people were also popular girls in the alum building, one was named Tang Yue, and the other was named Fu Qiushuang, who greeted her. Then there was some cynicism. Probably envied Master Li for being able to go out to visit friends, and after she came back. Xu Dongmo and the others came to her again.
Master Li also smiled dignified and generously and coped with it. As he spoke, the night wind blew and there was a cry. Master Li frowned, Tang Yue and Fu Qiushuang sneered, this cry came from a girl named Ling Xuemei in the building, who had some friendship with Master Li in the past, and in recent times, it is said that he has fallen in love with a man and wants to defend himself for the other party, which is nothing. But the man is not a rich man, his talent may not be outstanding, the money to redeem himself is not enough, Ling Xuemei also resisted the showmanship, it is said that someone touched her hand and splashed the guest's tea, which is a big taboo, and she has been locked up in a dark room and beaten in the past two days, which is already a trend that forces her to pick up customers.
"It's already at this point, and I can't figure out my identity, what is pretending to be high, it's really ......" Tang Yue and Fu Qiushuang said this, looking at Master Li, probably with some insinuations, "Senior Sister can't sympathize with her, right?" ”
Master Li smiled and shook his head: "I remembered what my mother said, when I first came to Alum Tower, I heard someone crying, and my mother told me." If you are used to hearing it one day, you will gloat, and you will not be able to get out for the rest of your life...... Two sisters, I'll go back to the room first. ”
She nodded and turned to leave. She may not like what is happening over there, but that's not something she can interfere with. There is such a thing everywhere.
Each place has its own ecology.
Compared with the hustle and bustle of the day, the city has gradually fallen into a deep sleep of the night, and even if there is occasional movement, it is drowned in darkness after spreading not far away. In the palace, Emperor Zhou Zhe flipped over a sign casually, yawned and began to think about what he would say tomorrow morning, in the study of many officials' mansions, the lights were still on at this time, and the people in the lights rubbed the bridge of their noses and foreheads, and continued their work. The carriage entered the Taiwei Mansion through the back door, and on the side of the mansion, someone shouted: "Lu Qian-I can't stand it anymore, I must kill you!" You come out for me......"
A man named Gao Muen, who had a knife, rushed through the courtyard of the Taiwei Mansion, vowing to kill the people around him who were in the way of martial arts, and his language and appearance were quite funny. Finally, when he ran back to the courtyard where he lived again, he saw Lu Qian who was standing quietly under the door, and when he was about to rush up, the other party pushed open the door next to him, and a sack was still struggling on the ground in the room. So his eyes immediately lit up: "Lu Qian, you still love me, who is it, who is this......"
He rushed in and cut the rope on the sack with a knife, and what came out of it was a woman who was tied by the rope, Gao Muen was stunned: "Lu Qian! I don't want her, I want ...... Ahh......h Little girl, I said I'd find Little ......"
Lu Qian closed the door, and then there was laughter, the sound of clothes being torn, and the desperate cries of the woman coming out of her throat because her mouth was gagged......
The night continued, the stars, the moon, and layers of thin clouds swirling in the sky, and the passage of time would not leave a place behind. Before dawn, the city gradually woke up, the sound of getting up, the sound of the palm lamp, the sound of the dog barking, the mist flowing, the dew dripping from the leaves, Ning Yi got up and did radio gymnastics in the yard. When I entered another courtyard, I saw Yuan Jin'er getting up rarely early. She wears a thin dress. Sitting under the eaves over there in a daze, he didn't know what Lu Dao was thinking, but after seeing Ning Yi, he stood up abruptly and went back to the room coldly, Ning Yi raised his hand and wanted to say hello, but at this time he could only pout.
"Neurotic......" he muttered, touching his nose.
Take a break after breakfast. I have to go to the Qin Mansion to visit, Qin Siyuan is going to the early dynasty, he is mainly with Cheng Zhouhai and others to discuss various issues related to Liangshan, although he has a preliminary idea of the breakthrough of this trip to Shandong, but after all, Cheng Zhouhai these people are the ones who are with intelligence all day long, and can communicate with them more. It's good to find out more about your actions that need to be filled.
Because of the courtesy he received yesterday, Qin Siyuan also greeted the housekeepers at home, and this time when he came to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Ning Yi was welcomed in, but when he entered the courtyard where Cheng Zhouhai and the others were, he heard the sound of talking inside.
"What can you do with this kind of thing...... Just the little things......"
"But they're just lawless! And so on...... Taiwei Mansion ......"
"Do you have witness evidence? What's the use of guessing, let alone this kind of thing......"
A few people inside spoke. The louder and more indignant is Cheng Zhouhai. Yao Zunian and Ji Kun seemed to be persuading, but they both had a bit of grievances. Ning Yi shook his head. But it is not surprising that people like them who deal with all kinds of dark secrets have seen far more injustices than ordinary people, listening to the meaning of their words, although they also know the injustice of what they said, Cheng Zhouhai will even scold it, but it is not a feeling of wanting to stand out or do something, it is probably a routine expression.
When Ning Yi knocked on the door and entered, the three of them stopped, and then greeted him, Cheng Zhouhai's face was a little gloomy, nodded to him, and then threw a file that had been completed in his hand to the side. After everyone exchanged pleasantries for a while, he was the first to raise his head and say, "I heard that Liheng met that Huahua Tai Sui yesterday. ”
"Well, it's nothing...... Sixteen young people came back and said? ”
Regarding this matter, the reason why Cheng Zhouhai and others knew about it was mostly because of Qin Shaoyu. Yao Zunian said: "That Huahua Tai Sui is notorious, and there are many people in Beijing who can't look past it. It's just that his stepfather, Gao Yu, is in good grace, and everyone can't move him, which is also helpless. ”
"yes, I understand."
Cheng Zhouhai nodded: "That's it." Although Gao Muen is messy, but he really has a background of identity, he doesn't dare to move after all, although the Taiwei is rumored to be heard by the outside world, but in fact, ...... Not incompetent. Liheng doesn't have to worry about the safety of the people around him, and we will also have some arrangements on our side. ”
Ning Yi nodded and laughed, in fact, after talking to Qin Shaoyu about the matter in Gao Yanei yesterday, Ning Yi had already forgotten about it for the time being. Bianliang is a place, merchants and households, nearly a million people, at this time the architectural skills are not as developed as the later generations, the whole city circle, enough to be as big as the city of millions of people in later generations, even if excluding the surrounding villages, the urban area in the city wall is also considerable. Being able to meet a celebrity like Gao Yanei is fateful, but to meet again, it may not be so easy, take a step back and say, Qin Shao, Yu Chengzhouhai and others are right, if Gao Muen really dares to attack everyone unscrupulously, even if Taiwei Gao Yu Shengyi Zhenglong, can be compared with the left and right, he will not be able to keep this righteous son. And even if you don't care about these, even if you are Jiangning and Hangzhou, there are few such disciples.
“…… Molesting women is the most inappropriate thing among these people, but this Gao Yanei is actually quite interesting. ”
Knowing that Cheng Zhouhai and the others were trying to make themselves feel at ease, Ning Yi appreciated it in his heart and wanted to enliven the atmosphere, so he also smiled and joked. However, this statement was only echoed with a wry smile, Yao Zunian shook his head, although it was not a refutation, but obviously a little disapproving: "Liheng is right, it's not bad, but ...... In the future, I will know the truth......"
His wry smile was not aimed at Ning Yi, and soon put aside this matter and talked about other issues. Ning Yi didn't know everything, and it wasn't until he went back that evening that he probably guessed what that wry smile was, and before that, he had made an invitation to visit various green buildings with Qin Shaoyu, Cheng Zhouhai, Yao Zunian and others in a very famous manner......
