"Master, you're here! Inside please! The young man laughed, and welcomed the drunkard, who was covered in alcohol, into the tavern and brought him to one of the innermost tables.

"Master Chen, the national teacher has sent a letter." Ke Xia, the master of the Chen Mansion, took a letter and pushed Chen Xiao's study open.

"Put it on the table and you go out." Chen Xiao's panting voice came from the study.

Kesha shook his head, closed the door and went out. Since he was sent by Zhang Qingyan to follow Chen Xiao, Ke Xia has not seen Chen Xiao do anything serious, except for playing with women every day, he drinks and plays with money.

About a cup of tea, Chen Xiaocai walked out of the room with a silk silk tie, and scolded in his mouth: "A letter at the end of three days, you really think you are my son!" Chen Xiao grabbed the letter, tore it open, and fell to the ground flutteringly.

Chen Xiao, see the words like faces. I heard that you spend all day drinking and not doing business, do you think that the position of the city lord of Li City is a disadvantage to you? I don't care about your, from now on, within sixty days, if you can't finish digging a tunnel in all directions, come to me with your head!

"Kesha!" Chen Xiao tore up the letter in a fit of rage.

"City Lord Chen." Kesha pushed open the door of the study and gave a shallow salute.

"You still know that I am the lord of the city! You actually sued me for being black in front of the national teacher! Chen Xiaoqi gritted his teeth.

"Where is the duty of the lowly duty." Ke Xia's face did not change, and he looked directly at Chen Xiaoqi's distorted and blue face.

"Okay, what a duty! So what I want you to do, will you do it? Chen Xiao gritted his teeth. He didn't know that Ke Xia was Zhang Qingyan who put him by his side to spy on him.

"That's what the city lord commands." Ke Xia is neither humble nor arrogant.

"Take someone to dig a tunnel!" Chen Xiao almost roared and gave Ke Xia an order. He really couldn't stand the way Kesha didn't take him seriously.

"Yes." Ke Xia bowed and left, still calm.

"Who gave it to you?" Mother Xu sat in the front hall, holding the Qingluan golden hairpin in her hand.

"Mrs. Hui, it's the son who sent the sedan chair." Begonia looks at the nose, nose and mouth, mouth and heart, and is slightly blessed. She didn't even have to look up, she could guess Xu's mother's face.

"Oh." Mother Xu knows what Qingluan represents, a few days ago she sent a sedan chair and a piano, Mother Xu is only a brother in the city, today's Qingluan Jin Hai, so that Mother Xu feels that this person's identity is unusual. She thought for a moment, then said, "Okay, you go down first." Pearl, go and invite Master Quan. ”

"Mommy, what's wrong?" Quan Ye took off his coat and sat aside.

"Who is the person who sent this golden hairpin?" Mother Xu handed the Qingluan golden hairpin to Quan Ye.

"I heard that it is a white-robed boy, and all the irises and sedan chairs and pianos in the past few days were all awarded to Qiu Tang by this person." Quan Ye glanced at Jin Hai and put it aside.

"The white robe? Where does he stay? ”

"I don't know, but I should have left the mausoleum, and when I brought Qiu Tang back, I happened to see a white-robed boy riding away with a group of people in gray robes. What's wrong? "Quan Ye doesn't know why Mother Xu is so interested in this person.

"Nothing, I'll just ask." Mother Xu put the Qingluan golden hairpin in the box and put it away, and reluctantly accepted the topic. Men don't seem to be very sensitive in this regard. But after all, this is a mausoleum city, not to mention white robes, people wearing gold thread embroidered black robes have also been here.

"Well, if nothing else, I'm going to rest. It's not even June, and it's hot. Seeing that Mother Xu had nothing to say, Quan Ye got up and walked back.

"Go, go, I just happened to have something to find Master Liang, so I'll take the girls to the piano hall in the afternoon." Mother Xu waved her handkerchief and said.

"How's Yu'er?" Mu Jianyu finished his work and came to Zhang Rou Palace.

"It's much better, thank you for your concern." Wiping tears from the corners of his eyes.

"Well, take care of it." Looking at Mu Lingyu, who was unconscious, Mu Jianyu panicked.

"Holy rest assured, the concubines should do their best to take care of His Royal Highness the Prince."

"You and Sister Yunfei must take care of Yu'er for me." Mu Jianyu's face was filled with rare love.

"Mother Xu, long time no see." Liang Yuzhu opened the door and saw Xu's mother who came with the girls, and opened her mouth to say hello.

"Is Master Liang here?" Mother Xu smiled.

"My father is playing the piano in the backyard, and Mother Xu is invited in." Liang Yuzhu turned sideways and let Mother Xu and the girls of Linglong Pavilion into Tingyuxuan.

Liang Yuzhu led Xu's mother to sit down in the front hall and drink tea: "Xu's mother will sit for a while, and I will call my father to come." After speaking, Liang Yuzhu took the girls to the backyard.

After Xu's mother drank a cup of tea, Master Liang turned into the front hall and arched his hand: "Let Xu's mother wait for a long time."

"It doesn't matter. Master Liang is a place for self-cultivation here, every grass and tree is full of aura, and I happen to be stained with light, get rid of the cheesiness on my body, and sit for a while is my blessing. Mother Xu got up and was slightly blessed.

"Mother Xu, please take a seat. Mother Xu is here today, what advice do you have?" Master Liang sat down and asked.

"Master Liang, since Qiu Tang went to the Xue Mansion for Yuzhu last time, he is now a celebrity in Lingcheng, and this is all thanks to you and Yuzhu's blessings. The first reason I came here today is to thank you for this. You must accept this. Mother Xu took out a mahogany box from her arms, opened it, and saw that inside was a small and exquisite, smooth porcelain teapot.

"Mother Xu is too polite." Master Liang excused himself.

"Master Liang doesn't accept it, is he looking down on me?" Xu's mother quipped.

"Don't mind, Mother Xu will be born when she says this, they are all ninth-rate performers, who can look down on anyone?" Master Liang hurriedly said, "Yes, then I'll take it." The second thing about Xu's mother ......"

"Master Liang, these girls have been studying with you for a few days, I know that they are not as talented as Qiu Tang, but even if they smoke, they should have gained some aura from you, I want to ask Master Liang to help pick and see which one is the best." Mother Xu was overjoyed when she saw Master Liang accept the gift, and immediately asked Master Liang to help pick someone.

"It's not difficult, Mother Xu, come with me." Master Liang led Xu's mother to the backyard.

Walking along the cobblestone path, through the patchwork bamboo forest, and around a small goldfish pond, Xu's mother came to the courtyard where the girls practiced the piano on weekdays.

"Fei'er, Wantong, come here." Master Liang looked at the girls and ordered two people.

"Master Liang, Mother Xu." Fei'er and Wantong are both blessed.

"Get up." Master Liang nodded and said to Mother Xu, "Although Fei'er's talent is not as good as Qiu Tang's, she works extremely hard and has a good voice, and now she has begun to take shape. Wan Tong is a girl with a good understanding and is very sensitive to music, and many tunes are sung by her, which is unique. ”

"Okay, since Master Liang has such a high opinion of you, I'll give you another chance to climb up. Master Liang, I will take these two girls away first, and I will ask Master Quan to pick up the other girls back to Linglong Pavilion later. After speaking, Mother Xu walked out with the two girls.

"Mother Xu is relieved. Xu's mother walked slowly. Master Liang said goodbye.

Fei'er and Wantong followed behind Xu's mother, got out of Tingyuxuan, and walked to the center of the city, about a cup of tea, and the three of them came to Mingyue Xuan, which was surrounded by the crowd. Mother Xu took the two into the back door of Ming Yuexuan.

"Mother Xu! Why do you have time to come to me today? The sharp-eyed Shen Mishi saw Mother Xu near the back door at a glance, "You are a noble step, as soon as you come, my Mingyue Xuan is shining." ”

"The proprietress said with a smile, today I am bringing two girls to meet the world." Mother Xu smiled.

"It's not appropriate to stop here, you come with me, let's go to the box to talk." Shen Mishi led Xu's mother upstairs.

"Good!" There was a cheer downstairs, which caused Xu's mother on the stairs to stop, and looked at the voice, Qiu Tang on the stage had just finished singing, Wan Fu thanked him, large and small gold and silver bills, rings and hairpins were thrown to the stage.

"Hey, this posture is really big enough." Mother Xu smiled at Shen Mi.

"Isn't it, Qiu Tang, now it's our Mingyue Xuan's baby!" As soon as Shen Mishi mentioned Qiu Tang, he couldn't close his mouth with a smile, "You upstairs, please, be careful of your step." ”

The group sat down in the private room on the third floor, and Shen Mishi poured three cups of tea and beckoned Xu's mother and the two girls to sit down.

"Thank you, Boss Shen." Fei'er and Wantong thanked Wanfu, but they still stood behind Xu's mother and did not sit down.

"In the end, it's a girl from Linglong Pavilion, who knows the rules." Shen Mishi praised, "Mother Xu thinks this hut is good?"

"Okay, not only can I hear it clearly, but I can also see it clearly, I have long heard people on Lingcheng Street say that the beautiful songs of Qiutang people are good, so I want to come and see it." Mother Xu took a sip of tea and said, "Boss Shen, let's go and get busy, don't worry about us." ”

"How inappropriate it is." Shen Mishi also wanted to leave, after all, she was indispensable to be sent downstairs, but she couldn't save face.

"It's okay, you go get busy. Don't delay earning money. Xu's mother smiled.

"Then I'll quit first." Shen Mi gave a salute and withdrew from the private room.

This box should have been specially set aside by the Shen couple for the God of Wealth, and the God of Wealth may not have come today, so they just happened to catch up. Mother Xu looked around and pondered. The box is on the third floor, facing the platform downstairs, and Qiu Tang's every move on the platform can be seen clearly, and the gold and silver jewelry thrown at Qiu Tang's feet is even more dazzling.

"Go to the window and take a closer look." Mother Xu shook her fan and said.

"Yes." Fei'er and Wantong answered and walked to the window. As soon as they stood still, they just sang a song on the stage, and there was a burst of rewards, Fei'er and Wantong looked straight, they had never seen so much money, and they had never worn such good clothes.

"See? Come here. Downstairs, Qiu Tang sang another song, and Xu's mother shook her fan to recall Fei'er and Wantong.
