Chapter Eighty-Three: Sitting Fees
"I'm going?"
"There you go. ”
Xu Anna made it clear that he didn't want to go, and said a little awkwardly: "But I am King Hui'an, how can the prince lead the troops to support..."
Xu An knew that the state of Chu was strong, and he did not have any experience in leading troops to fight. Mullanzhou let himself lead troops to support? Isn't that just leading the soldiers to send them to death? Bringing troops is not fighting alone, if there is a person who needs Xu An to kill, as long as there is no danger and can prove to those people that he doesn't want to rebel, he will definitely go, but if this kind of thing is not good, it is thousands of lives that will die, and if Xu An goes on a business trip, Xu An will not be able to bear this responsibility.
And Lin Pinggui didn't want to go back to the capital by himself, if something happened to those soldiers with his own troops, Lin Pinggui didn't have to assassinate, and he probably wouldn't dare to come back when Xu An came back.
Mulan stood up and spat and said angrily: "Hey, you still learned to put on a shelf? What's wrong with the prince? I'm still... It's not the same as teaching you how to deal with these things. ”
Xu An was a little curious about what the unfinished sentence in the middle of Mulanzhou was, turned his head to look at Yang Hejiu and asked, "Uncle Jiu, did the dean want to say something just now?"
Yang Hejiu was still eating the food in the bowl seriously, and only when he heard Xu An's question did he look up and return: "I didn't hear clearly." ”
"What did you want to say just now? Uncle Jiu, you're not curious at all?"
"I'm still the dean of the Spirit Academy, what's the matter, isn't it better than you, the King of Hui'an, who doesn't even dare to see anyone?" said Mullan, snorting, completely like a child who was angry.
"I understand what you mean, if I lead the troops to help, personally go to the battlefield to contribute to the country, and do not rebel with heavy troops, I can naturally prove my loyalty to Beichang, but the lord of the country and those courtiers do not necessarily rest assured that I will lead the troops, and they are also afraid that I will rebel. ”
"The lord of the country is not here, Li Si is in charge of the country, he can think of things clearly, you just need to say it. ”
"Why is his eldest brother gone?" asked Xu An suspiciously.
"How can I know about the affairs above the court, maybe I was afraid that the two of you would be embarrassed to meet and ran away. Mullanzhou replied casually.
Xu An smiled bitterly, how can good brothers reach the point where they can't see each other like this. A huge Beiyang City, since last year, it has become a city without him, without me, with me without him, which is really ridiculous.
Recalling the past, a green pear, the two couldn't bear to part with each other.
Now, the three brothers, the four seasons are separated.
Yang Hejiu gently patted Xu An's shoulder and didn't say anything.
"Thank you, Uncle Nine, I'm fine. Xu An squeezed out a smile and said.
"Let's go back and rest first, if not, go to the city, there are very few people in the city who know you, don't worry about anyone knowing that you are back in the capital." As for Lin Pinggui, you don't have to be afraid, I'm here. Mullanzhou sat down and said.
You're in... Xu Anke didn't believe that this dean would show up next time to save him. In Xu An's opinion, it is okay for Mullanzhou to threaten people, if you expect him to help you? Then don't think about it, Lin Pinggui's shot is the best proof, in fact, Xu An didn't know that someone would go over to save him.
"Don't you have something to tell me?" Xu An asked, looking up at Mulan.
"Your heart is a little messy, let's talk about it later. ”
Xu An walked out of the yard, holding a paper umbrella and went straight to the lake in the backyard, the water in the lake had frozen and was covered with a thick layer of snow. Snow and ice always complement each other on this lake, without the layer of ice on the water, even if the thick snow falls in the water, it will be melted instantly, but if there is no snow, the water surface will still freeze when it is cold.
He couldn't understand why Xu Shichang left the capital, and if he really didn't do anything, why didn't he dare to see him? Xu An still couldn't understand these questions.
Holding the umbrella out of the Spirit Academy, the edge of the umbrella was pressed very low, and not wanting to be recognized was a reason, and more importantly, he didn't want to be seen by others.
There are very few pedestrians on the street, most of them are enjoying the snow in the house, Xu An's footsteps have not been destroyed by the next footprint for a long time, such a season seems to have such an encounter, with Xu An's current mood can really be regarded as the most perfect appetizer.
Xu An suddenly wanted to drink, he grew up in the Spirit Academy, and Yang Hejiu never allowed him to drink. Wine was drunk once in his life with Zhou Rong in the General's Mansion in Yicheng, and he didn't dare to drink it out of caution when he was at Liu Laoer's house, but just once, he felt that it should be very suitable for his current situation.
Xu An didn't think much about it, and slowly walked to the front of a flower building, picked up the umbrella slightly, and looked at the plaque on the flower building that read Pear Flower Garden.
From time to time, there are brightly dressed nobles in the Pear Flower Garden, and there are also fat and rich men who are full of alcohol come out, no one notices Xu An standing in front of the door, not because Xu An is not very conspicuous with an umbrella, but the people who come to the Pear Flower Garden are pursuing other things.
Raised his legs and walked in, a warm and charming breath came to his face. A small guy saw that a visitor came to the door, and hurriedly greeted him and nodded.
Although it is a green building, the etiquette in the lobby is very fresh and elegant, if it is not for the slightly revealing clothes of the girls in the building, it will make people think that this is a good place to only drink wine and drink tea.
It was snowing a lot outside, but the building was unusually warm, and on the stage covered with red carpet, several charming women in green shirts and robes danced to the music, all smiling, and occasionally throwing provocative eyes at the audience, attracting a burst of applause.
The applause was only for a while, and it quickly stopped, and it didn't last long, Xu An was not surprised by this reaction, the guests who could come here were all looking for a burst of romance, and they regarded themselves as suave, fresh and elegant existence, and how could they not stop applauding like watching street juggling.
There are a lot of guests in the hall, but it doesn't seem noisy, the girl in her arms is slightly teasing, and the guests on the side of the desk can't help but hug Feng Soft in her arms and go straight to the second floor, it seems that the first floor is just a place for drinking and dancing, and no one has done anything too out of line.
Xu An had heard of Pear Blossom Garden, but he had never been there, he had been educated in the Spirit Academy since he was a child, and the ordinary route was only between the two lines of the palace and the academy, and occasionally wandering around the city was only a little glimpse, and being born in the royal family was not as comfortable as ordinary people's families, and there was a lot more money, etc... Money?
Xu An was a little embarrassed when he thought of this, where did he get the money? The clothes had just been changed, not to mention that he was penniless when he came back from Sanhe Town, even if he had the money he brought and just changed his clothes, he was left behind.
Xu An was speechless, his footsteps began to be heavy, but he came to this kind of place, looking at the little guy who greeted him warmly in front of him, he suddenly felt that it was not good to just walk away, according to his understanding, this kind of building and tavern are free to come and sit in, and it is not too kind to come and sit for a while and then make excuses to say that there is something.
The little servant led Xu An to a slightly remote place in a corner, and Xu An didn't mind this, because the seats in the lobby were already full, and the only remaining position would naturally not be too good. And the remoteness is only compared to the other tables, the table in the building is not dense, the distance between the two tables is very empty, it seems to be for the convenience of the guests' private actions, for the Qinglou the first floor is never a place to make money, drinking a wine and listening to a song in the Qinglou is not a serious matter, there must be enough space for the girls to lure.
Xu An sat down, the little guy bent down and looked at Xu An with a smile, stretched out his hands, and there was obvious expectation in his eyes.
Xu An was slightly stunned when he saw this, he naturally knew what this little guy meant, this was to ask for a tip, he was stunned not because he didn't understand what he meant, but because he had no money, if he was on other occasions Xu An would definitely tell him directly that he had no money to send him away, but this kind of first time in the place will inevitably be a little nervous, and it has little to do with whether there is money or not, Xu An's right hand slightly clenched the paper umbrella in his hand, and then took it into account, handed the paper umbrella up and said: "I'm tired." ”
The little guy was speechless for a while, asking for a tip This kind of thing can't be clear, looking at the young man in front of him is not very old, thinking that it should be the first time to come to this kind of place, so he doesn't understand these rules, and he doesn't insist too much, he looks Xu An up and down with bad intentions, and then the corners of his mouth can't help but smile and hurriedly rein, and after helping to put the paper umbrella, he asked Xu An if he had other needs.
Xu An naturally saw the slightly mocking smile on the corner of the little girl's mouth, and suddenly felt uncomfortable, did he look down on himself? It's not that he looks down on Xu An for having no money, but something more important. But Xu An didn't care about this, the little guy asked him what he wanted, Xu An's needs were very simple, he wanted to drink. He didn't come to Pear Flower Garden to find a night of romance, he just came to drink, but now that he is penniless, he naturally can't say it.
"I just remembered that there was something important to do, and I would come back another day, and come back another day. Xu An spoke, and then he was about to leave.
Seeing Xu An getting up and wanting to leave, the little guy hurriedly greeted him and said, "Childe, we have a sitting fee in this building, do you see if it..."
Xu An became more and more embarrassed when he heard this, he just sat down for a while and still had to charge?
"Our Pear Flower Garden has always been this rule, you see you sat here for a while, just now a guest came in and saw that there was no vacant space and left, so this sitting fee is also reasonable. The servant pointed to the guest who had just left the door.
Said... It makes sense... But why does it feel that something is wrong? Xu An naturally won't do much entanglement, such a big building will definitely not allow him to leave as soon as he says, he is not afraid that he will be killed here, but afraid of causing some movement. I can't help but feel remorseful, why didn't I know how to take a few ordinary official waist cards from the palace when I left?
Xu An was angry and gritted his teeth, if he didn't come sooner or later, but I sat down and you came, Xu An didn't leave, sat down again and said: "Money is not a problem, go to the bar." ”
