Chapter Forty-Nine: The Cardinal and the White Thousand Feathers
"Tianxiao, are you sure you're completely well?" Qiushui looked at Wu Tianxiao with some concern, after all, Chu Xiang's poisonous needle was not so easy to survive.
"I'm fine, it's just a small needle." Wu Tianxiao said, and went downstairs with light skills, "Look, I'm not very good, am I?" β
"It's fine if you're okay." Qiushui walked downstairs and walked out of the door with Tianxiao.
As soon as he got out of the small inn, Tianxiao said, "We have to hurry back to Yunye City and meet Tianjun." β
Qiushui nodded.
After a while, the two of them arrived in Cloud Leaf City and came to the big inn before to find Tianjun and them.
They were just waiting for Qiushui and Tianxiao at the door.
"You're back!" Tianjun was the first to step forward and said, "I heard Gillian say that you went to Jingkong Gate, I thought something had happened to you." β
"It's fine." Wu Tianxiao smiled and said, "It's right for you to wait here, don't risk following us." β
"It's a pity that we didn't get the Lingtian Sword Technique." Qiushui added.
"Qiushui, don't pay too much attention to the Lingtian Sword Technique! It's still about saving your life. Jin Jiao said, "People were also worried about you so they told them, and then Tianjun didn't let us go, saying that they were waiting for you here." β
"Second brother, well done." Wu Tianxiao said, "I'm very happy that you trust me like this." β
"Of course." Wu Tianjun said.
"Now that the four of us are together, what's next?" Jin Jiao asked.
"Both the Silent Void Sect and the Lingshuang Sect are too strong opponents, we have to gather intelligence first." Wu Tianxiao said.
Wu Tianjun thought for a while and said, "I know a good place to gather intelligence. β
So, the four of them came to the Manchun Building in Cloud Leaf City.
As soon as I entered the building, I saw the bustard busy explaining to a fat official: "Oh, the cardinal is a big red man, but the little maid will arrive soon, and he will ......be there soon."
The fat official was furious: "I just want your top cardinal, why do you just give me one to deal with me?" β
The old bustard hurriedly said, "This is not against you! Xiaoxiao is enthusiastic and lively, and she is good at dancing, so she is sure to satisfy you. β
At this time, a girl dressed in coral red came over with a light step: "This adult, I am Xiaoxiao." β
When the fat official saw it, he smiled from ear to ear. Xiao Wan is not only in good shape, but also smiling, although she looks like the simple girl outside, but also has a liveliness, which is just the appetite of a hedonist like him.
"Hey, are you looking for this little girl?" Wu Tianxiao lowered her voice and asked Tianjun. This little girl has an aura that the girls around her don't have, and she doesn't look like a Fengyue woman at all, but more like a well-informed artist.
"Ah, the sixth sister of the Su family, it's good, but ......" Wu Tianjun hesitated.
"But what?" Wu Tianxiao asked.
"But, you see......" Wu Tianjun looked up at the second floor.
Wu Tianxiao followed his gaze and saw a graceful figure wrapped in a pomegranate-colored long skirt, slowly going downstairs.
She is gorgeous and dazzling, and if there is one word to describe her aura, it is - stunning.
Everyone present was stunned by her temperament, and the guests who tasted the food looked at her and completely forgot the taste of the food in their mouths.
The fat official just now saw that his eyes were sticking out, his jaw was dropping, and he was staring at her blankly with his mouth open.
I saw her walking towards the old bustard, smiling shyly, and said in a beautiful voice: "The cardinal is late, and the adult just now is really reluctant to let the cardinal go." No, the Cardinal will put on a show for you to apologize. β
With that, she took out a crimson fan in her left and right hands and danced to the music. Then seven more maidservants cameβall dressed in pink, with straight chestnut hair and chestnut eyesβas foils for the dancers, and danced to the music with the cardinals.
"Huh? This girl is a little ......familiar," Jin Jiao thought about it, and then had an epiphany, "Ah, that's right! She's Momiji! β
Wu Tianxiao said: "Not bad...... She is indeed Momiji. β
"What about the white flowers?" Wu Tianjun asked.
A man who was tasting the food put down the little girl who was sitting on his lap, got up and came to the bustard's side, and whispered, "Hey, where is Bai Qianyu?" Let her come out, and I'll reward you with silver......"
When the old bustard heard this, he smiled crookedly, and hurriedly called a girl in green: "Xuesu! Bring Bai Qianyu quickly! β
Xue Su hurriedly said yes and left quickly.
After a while, from the innermost wing on the first floor, a woman with light silver hair came out.
She was dressed in an ivory white dress, with a concave and convex figure, and a dusty temperament, like a snowflake falling into the mortal dust, elegant and refined, in stark contrast to the red and green dancing of the Spring Building. It is this purity that arouses the interest of even the most battle-hardened guestsβis this the so-called temptation of purity?
The old bustard beckoned to her and motioned for her to come.
I saw her walk slowly, and immediately gathered around her seven servantsβall dressed in green, with straight black hair and brown eyes.
When she walked up to the bustard, she humbly saluted again.
When the guest officer saw it, his eyes immediately lit up, and without saying a word, he put a heavy bag of silver into the old bustard's hand.
"Bai Qianyu, you see that the cardinal is performing. Do you have any tips to help us up? The guest officer asked.
Bai Qianyu was silent, and her temperament was ethereal.
The guest officer was fascinated by it, such an unearthly baby, I really don't know how to start?
"Bai Qianyu has always talked little, and he also asked the guest officer to bear with me." The old bustard said.
"Everywhere, I like this, haha."
"Look, isn't that a white leaf?" Qiushui looked at Bai Qianyu.
Wu Tianxiao looked over and said, "It's indeed Bai Ye!" I didn't expect the two sisters to be so down, to the point that they wanted to come to Manchun Building to perform. β
"But you see, they are followed by seven personal maids. And isn't that cardinal the top card? It can be seen that they have a good status here. Jin Jiao said, "And I think, Momiji ...... Ah no, the cardinal and the white thousand feathers are far more than they seem. β
At the end of the song, all the guests present gave a standing ovation.
At this moment, Qiushui suddenly noticed a figure in a pink and purple gauze dress in the crowd.
Qiushui walked over to her, and when she looked up at Qiushui, Qiushui was surprised: "Yinglingyan? β
Ying Lingyan said shyly: "Ah...... Isn't this Miss Jing? β
"Miss Ying, why are you in such a place?" Jing Qiushui felt incredulous.
"Is this girl interested in our Miss Ying? Although she is not the first in Manchun Building, she is also a well-known singer. The old bustard ran over and said, it seems that this old bustard has received all kinds of people, "You see that she has a delicate appearance, but in fact she is very stubborn, I wonder if this girl likes this kind of character?" β
Qiushui said: "I, I have something to say to Miss Ying." β
The old bustard looked at Ying Lingyan and then at Jing Qiushui, and then went back to take care of the male guest officer just now.
Qiushui heard from Ying Lingyan that she had a rough background and had to work in Manchun Building to survive. But she never bowed to fate. Qiushui felt that although Ying Lingyan was not very good at expressing her feelings, she could never be restrained, and she was a bold, chic and delicate woman.
At the same time, Wu Tianjun has found the fifth sister of the Su family, Su Ji.
"Have you seen that amorous beauty with mature charm and charm," Su Ji said to Wu Tianjun, "That's 'Red Fox', Cardinal's cousin." How about it, both of them have that kind of mature and glamorous type, right? β
"Sister Ji, you are a heartthrob, you must be popular, do you have any news for me?" Wu Tianjun asked her.
"Since you came to Manchun Tower, I'll tell you about it." Su Ji said, "You see Bai Qianyu, she is followed by seven maidservants." The person in charge of applying makeup is called Fanshuang, which is bland and ordinary, but serious and careful.
"The short black straight-haired, well-built man is called Su Yan, who is in charge of daily life, but he is a vain person.
"The person in charge of the diet is called Xuesu, who is clever but not qualitative, although he reacts quickly but is impatient.
"The person who is in charge of the backing singer is Su Ying, who is very enthusiastic, but likes to explore people's privacy. There is also Su Hua, who has a knife mouth, but her childlike heart has not slept yet, when Bai Qianyu was misunderstood, it was Su Hua who encouraged her.
"The one in charge of the backup dance is Yue Yu, who has no temperament, but is diligent in his hands and feet. and Su Yu is bold and cheerful, but he has no words. β
"You're so lively here, and there's really everyone there." Wu Tianjun said.
"Let's talk about our Oiran Cardinals! Look at the seven maidservants around her, and among them is Danxi - she is beautiful and sensual, and it is said that she has a love for cardinals that transcends friendship. There is also Danxia, this person turns her face like a book, but she is lively and cute, and some people like her.
"The person in charge of the cardinal's diet is called Danxiao, and Manchun Lou is the first in cooking, but she craves power but doesn't have that ability.
"The maroon short straight hair is Dan Yan who is in charge of daily life, she is meticulous, but she is a calculating character.
"Dan Hui, who is responsible for makeup, can be said to be the first person to put on makeup in our Manchun Building.
Danying, who is in charge of the backing vocals, is a strong girl, while Danhua is extremely sensitive, emotional and considerate.
"These maidservants called Cardinal and White Thousand Feathers 'Miss.' Of course, their posture, figure, intelligence, cultivation, and temperament are inferior to cardinals or white thousand feathers in all aspects. β
Wu Tianjun said: "So many supporting roles, just to set off the elegance of cardinals and white thousand feathers, stand out from the crowd? β
Su Jiao laughed out loud: "Don't let people hear it." They are all living treasures. β
Wu Tianjun looked at the cardinal finch and Bai Qianyu, which seemed more charming than the red leaves and white flowers he knew at that time.
"Secretly tell you a little secret," Su Jiao said mysteriously, "It is said that Bai Qianyu will hold a plain handkerchief and hide his face and smile when he is in his room and when he is drinking next to the guest officer. Guess who gave her that plain handkerchief? It's Xiao Ji! β
"Your seventh sister?" Wu Tianjun was puzzled.
Xiao Ji was extremely shy, obviously had no sense of existence, and was conformist, she gave Bai Qianyu a snow-white silk handkerchief, with white embroidery on it. Do you know what that means? β
