Li You saw that everyone was interested in this Tuoba Zilan, and it was not easy to spoil everyone's interest, he said, "Okay, let's go to a flower bar." ”

He looked at the sky and said, "It's a little late today, let's go tomorrow." ”

In fact, as long as Li You wants to go, no matter how late it is, that Tuoba Zilan will not dare not come out to receive him, but then he will lose the interest of drinking flower wine, Pei Dilan and the others are also middle and master, and they know the charm of it, so they naturally will not do such a bad thing.

So everyone made an appointment, tomorrow at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, go to Xin Ya Ge together.

Li You's status is now more noble, and he rarely appears in public except for necessary circumstances. And the big war is imminent, Li You goes in and out of the land of fireworks with a complex environment, and safety is the top priority.

The soldiers and horses did not move, and the grain and grass went first. This was in an ancient environment, and now because of the telegraph, the mode of war has begun to change - the soldiers and horses have not moved, and the intelligence has come first.

Since the change of the Korean situation, Li You reorganized the intelligence resources, and merged the original intelligence network of the Baiqi Division, the Northwest Frontier Affairs Bureau, and Yin Guanghao into a unified Diting Temple, which has two domestic and overseas offices under its jurisdiction.

Diting Temple is a newly added court affairs organ, and the original affairs of the imperial court Honglu Temple, Taichang Temple and Zongzheng Temple and other nine temples at the same level, set up one Qing, is three products, served by Yin Guanghao, two Shaoqing, is four products, by Wang Xuance and Zhou Pan. Diting Temple is directly responsible to Li You.

Li You was going to Qinglou Xin Yage in Pingkangfang, Yin Guanghao immediately became nervous, and he immediately arranged Zhou Pan, who was in charge of domestic affairs, to investigate Tuoba Zilan and others.

Now that the war is imminent, the sudden appearance of this Tuoba Zilan can't help but make Yin Guanghao not raise his vigilance. What's more, tomorrow, Li You, Hamid, Pei Dilan, and Murong Bo, the four important people, will go to Beili, which has a complicated environment, and once something goes wrong, the sky will fall.

When Zhou Pan heard this, he immediately became nervous, and he immediately arranged to investigate Tuoba Zilan and Xin Yage.

At noon the next day, Zhou Pan reported the results of the investigation to Yin Guanghao.

The Qing Building in the north is under the dual jurisdiction of the Tocao of the Jingzhao Mansion and the Taile Department of the Taichang Temple, and the identity of the geisha is to be filed in the yamen of these two official offices. Therefore, there are also records especially in the Wuhou shop in Pingkangfang.

There are three kinds of origins of the Qing people in the Qing Building in the North Lane, one is cultivated by the Qing Building itself, and their deed of sale is in the hands of the old bustard and belongs to the Qing Building. One is the geisha cultivated in the official teaching workshop, they mainly serve the court, and when there is no performance task, they can also come out to a certain qing building station, and most of the money they earn is handed over to the teaching workshop in addition to the share with the qing building.

There is also a kind of women from good families, who come to the Qinglou station for various reasons and sign contracts of varying lengths, which is similar to the actors of later generations, Tuoba Zilan is the latter type. Of course, for the sake of fame, they use pseudonyms in Qinglou, and they are basically outsiders.

This kind of purity is one of the most favorable, and associating with them will bring all kinds of more exciting imaginations.

The geisha are stationed in the Qing Building, not only to have an official to prove their identity, but also to have a guarantor, and the management is very strict.

Zhou Pan said: "My lord, this Tuoba Zilan's real name is Tuoba Ziyeyu, a native of Youzhou, and she is indeed a descendant of the nobles of the Northern Wei Dynasty. ”

Yin Guanghao said: "That's good, how is the security arranged?" ”

Zhou Pan said: "There are 200 Flying Tiger Army on the periphery of Pingkangfang, there are 50 secret agents outside Xin Ya Ge, and 20 good hands disguised as all kinds of guests are arranged inside, plus the white tiger and black panther and others around the prince, it should be foolproof." ”

Yin Guanghao said: "That's good, when the prince and them go in the afternoon, you will personally direct the security, and try not to let your people reveal their identities as much as possible, so as not to disappoint the prince." ”

Then, Yin Guanghao personally went to the Northwest Palace, and explained that the White Tiger and the Black Panther wanted to prevent someone from poisoning and stabbing the prince and their wine and food.

At half past two in the afternoon, Pei Dilan and Murong Bo came, urging Li You to set off quickly.

Beili, Xin Ya Ge.

Xin Ya Ge luxury, the entrance is a wide two-story color building, inside is a spacious hall, the middle of the hall is facing the door is a wide staircase, along the stairs, is a platform, here and two left and right stairs are connected to the corridor on the second floor, this is the place where Xin Ya Ge receives ordinary guests.

Li You, Hamid and others, disguised as ordinary nobles, walked into the hall on the first floor of Xin Ya Pavilion, and a geisha dressed in fancy clothes stepped forward to greet them.

Pei Dilan and Murong Bo were frequent visitors, and they were very popular with the geisha, and the geisha saluted with a smile and said, "Your Highnesses, everyone is here, welcome." ”

Pei Dilan smiled: "Go and call your old bustard." ”

The old bustard of Xin Ya Ge who heard the news was a middle-aged woman, who looked to be in her thirties, and her charm still existed.

After the old bustard greeted Pei Dilan and Murong Bo, he saw Li You and Hamid and asked, "May I ask Your Highness, who are these two nobles?" ”

"They're my friends, come and have fun together," said Pedilan. That Tuoba Zilan lady has some time, you go and arrange it. As he spoke, he handed her 10 Kaiyuan Tongbao.

In the past, Pei Dilan was generous, and often gave some tips to the old bustard, but it has always been 2 yuan, and today he is so generous, he hopes that the old bustard will arrange it well, and don't let Li You and others be disappointed.

The old bustard smiled, stretched out his hand to take the banknote, and said, "No, the slave family specially explained not to let people disturb the Zilan lady, just wait for Your Highness and your friends to come." ”

In fact, before Pei Dilan and the others, someone had already visited Tuoba Zilan, but they were not received by her. The old bustard can speak, so naturally he won't break it.

The old bustard said, "Your Highness, please come with me." ”

She walked in front, led Pei Dilan and the others through the hall, and pushed open the back door.

There is a hole in the back.

What appeared in front of everyone was an elegant garden, with eight exits at either end of a spacious gallery, each facing eight low-walled courtyards, each of which was the residence of a red-carded, first-handed, and clearer.

The low wall of the small courtyard is hollowed out, and you can see the situation inside the courtyard when you stand on it. This kind of low wall is set up by the government, and the Qinglou itself is willing to accept such a request, in order to prevent accidents in the courtyard. There had been a murder in the Qinglou before, but because it was too secretive, it took a long time for them to find out.

Everyone came to the front of a small courtyard in the innermost, and the wisteria buds on the low wall were already budding, which was very in line with everyone's mood, and they looked forward to a good situation.

Entering the small courtyard, there is a small blue building, and eight pairs of pink lanterns are hung on the upper floor. The crowd walked on the blue stone path and came to the door.

The old bustard called softly: "Lady Zilan, there is a distinguished guest visiting. Tuoba Zilan has an elegant temperament, and now she is the cash cow of Xin Yage, and the old bustard still respects her very much.

"Here we are." With a pleasant female voice, the pink door opened, and a young woman stepped out.

I saw her wearing a blue emerald cigarette shirt, a pleated skirt with scattered flowers and mist and green grass, wearing a light blue emerald water thin smoke veil, with a slender figure, white skin and beauty, delicate and lovely, which was eye-catching.

Yahuan is like this, and the owner is even more exciting.

The old bustard said: "Xiaoyue, all the guests who came today are distinguished guests, please entertain your lady." ”

Then, the old bustard said to Pei Dilan and the others: "You have fun, and the slave family will retire first." With that, she turned and left.

This maid named Xiaoyue let everyone into the living room, saluted everyone and said, "Distinguished guests, the slave Xiaoyue is polite." ”

Pei Dilan said: "Please come out and see your lady." ”

Xiao Yue said without humility or arrogance: "This distinguished guest, you know the rules here, please choose one of the piano, chess, calligraphy, painting and poetry to show your talent, and my lady will appreciate it." If my lady likes it, she will naturally meet with your guests. ”

Pei Dilan said with anticipation: "Lao Li, choose poems, you are the best at this." ”

Li You asked, "If we meet the conditions of your lady, how should we meet?" ”

Xiaoyue said: "My lady will not come down, which guest meets the conditions, please invite this guest upstairs to meet my lady." ”

Hearing this, Pei Dilan and the others were very disappointed.
