In the empty garden in the backyard of Jiafu, Liu Ru and Dong Xiaowan were strolling through the garden arm in arm.

Liu Ru saw Dong Xiaowan's melancholy expression and frowned, so she couldn't help but persuade softly: "Sister Dong, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, no matter how much you worry about it now, it's in vain, why don't you wait and see?" Maybe she really just wants to keep guests? ”

"Alas! Sister Liu, why am I always so miserable? Dong Xiaowan was full of grievances, and worried: "Originally, I said that I would return to Suzhou after the Oiran Contest was over, and then I would use the name of Oiran to earn some silver, pay off the debts of my family, and then redeem myself, and I would never have to live the current days of compromising and laughing at others." I never thought that I was imprisoned here now, and I wasn't even allowed to go out. ”

"It's my sister, I'm not good, I had to bring you to see Lin Daiyu at that time, I didn't expect her to treat you like this!" Liu Ru sighed very guiltily.

"Sister Liu, don't blame yourself, I don't blame you for this matter, even if you don't bring me here, then Lin Daiyu will also send someone to arrest me, but I don't know why she treats me like this!" Dong Xiaowan was relieved to Liu Rus, and then she was puzzled.

I don't know why she did that! She's just a woman, and if it's a strange thing, who do you want to give as a gift, it doesn't make sense! She's been holding you here for almost two months, but there's been no movement, except for restricting your freedom, but she'll do her best to meet whatever we want! Liu Ru also frowned in distress.

"Sister Liu, my sister regrets not listening to you at the beginning, it's really not a good thing that a woman is too famous!" Dong Xiaowan sighed again, and then asked, "Then Lin Daiyu can really cover the sky in this capital?" ”

"Lin Daiyu is not only outstanding in her own talents, but her background is also very deep, I once asked some acquaintances in the capital for help, they first agreed but then heard that it was Lin Daiyu who did it, and they all shirked in every way. After I inquired in many ways, I found out that this Lin Daiyu was actually close to Wang Chengen, the chief eunuch of the palace Xichang, and from what I have seen recently, the group of servants around Lin Daiyu should be the eunuchs in the palace. Liu Ru shook her head bitterly.

"Sister Liu, thank you, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I really don't know how to live!" Dong Xiaowan tightly held Liu Ruye's arm and was moved.

She knew that Liu Ru had done her best for herself, not only worried about her own safety and stayed in the capital to live here with her, but also asked for help for herself in many ways, and even reprimanded Lin Daiyu in person several times.

"You and I hit it off at first sight, about sisters, I will naturally help, sister, you don't have to be polite." Liu Ru was comforted, seeing that Dong Xiaowan's eyebrows were full of sorrow, and she was concerned, "Sister, are you worried about your family?" ”

"Yes, I don't know what my mother will be like at home, those creditors who come to collect debts see that I haven't returned for a long time, I'm afraid they won't be able to sit still!" Dong Xiaowan was full of sorrow.

"You have the title of the world's No. 1 Oiran, and those people are still counting on you to pay off your debts, so I don't think you will force your aunt." Liu analyzed.

Dong Xiaowan still couldn't rest assured: "The bustard must have known that I had become an Oiran, with her greed for money, I was really afraid that she would attack my mother to threaten me, but I can't go back at all now." ”

"I'll give Qian Qianyi a letter and ask him to help take care of one or two!" Liu Ru gritted her teeth and said resolutely.

Dong Xiaowan just wanted to refuse, but she missed her mother at home, her eyes were full of tears, and she looked at Liu Ruis with shame, and she didn't know what to say.

Liu Ru gently hugged Dong Xiaowan, Dong Xiaowan fell into Liu Rusi's arms, sobbing in a low voice, Liu Ru sighed and patted Dong Xiaowan's back: "It is a sin for a woman like us to be beautiful, maybe only the loyal Uncle Qin Liangyu can really not control his own destiny." ”

Liu Ru looked hesitant, pondered for a moment, and said softly: "Mao Bijiang also came to the capital to participate in Enke, he knew that I was in the capital, so he asked me where you went, I told him your current situation, and he is trying to rescue him." He has a wide range of friends, and with Tongcheng Fang Yizhi, Yixing Chen Zhenhui, Shangqiu Hou Fangyu, and called the fourth son, with his status in the Fushe, if he is willing to contribute, even Wang Chengen should sell him a few thin noodles, and you will definitely save you from the sea of suffering. ”

When Dong Xiaowan heard that Mao Bijiang wanted to save her, she immediately cried with joy.

But I didn't see the worry in Liu Ru's eyes, even though he was very famous, he was always just a person, and it was unknown whether the rest of the Donglin Party sold his face, and Wang Chengen was a high-ranking and powerful governor of Xichang, and this eunuch was flattering, framing Zhongliang to fight the honest minister of the Donglin Party, and he had a very bad reputation in Shilin, so he was afraid that the move of taking the liberty would be counterproductive.

At this time, in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion on the other side of Jiafu, Yang Suzheng looked at Wu Ruyi dumbfounded, and confirmed again and again: "What did you say, the Oiran chose Dong Xiaowan?" ”

"Brother Yang, isn't it a strange concubine to make her own opinions?" Wu Ruyi blinked and looked at Yang Su, and said timidly.

"How could I blame you for that!" Yang Su shook his head and denied that it was just a trivial matter for him who would be the Oiran, but he suddenly learned the news, and he was a little puzzled, obviously he had already chosen Wu Ruyi's top brand in the Qinglou to become the Oiran, why did he suddenly change it to Dong Xiaowan.

"I heard someone report that Brother Yang praised Dong Xiaowan's performance at that time, so he took the initiative to mention this matter to Lord Xiao." Wu Ruyi explained.

"It's okay, Dong Xiaowan will be Dong Xiaowan!" Yang Su waved his hand and asked again, "Where is Dong Xiaowan now?" ”

"It's in Jia's house." Wu Ruyi said.

"Well, just place her in Jiafu!" Yang Su said casually.

The task of the system has been completed, Yang Su doesn't care about Dong Xiaowan's thoughts, as long as she stays here.

"Does Brother Yang want me to arrange for her to sleep?" Wu Ruyi said with a smile.

Yang Su shook his head and said, "No, I've been having trouble recently, I've seen Qin Keqing for a long time, I'll go see her later." ”

"Sister Qin is looking forward to Brother Yang day and night, lately, I don't think about tea and food, and everyone has lost a few miles!" Wu Ruyi covered her mouth and chuckled, and suddenly said: "Coincidentally, I was about to send someone to pick up Dong Xiaowan into the mansion, and it happened that a woman named Liu Ru who liked to wear men's clothes came to see me with Dong Xiaowan, so I took the opportunity to leave Dong Xiaowan behind.

Na Liu Ru has made some small moves recently, and kept contacting the ministers of the DPRK and China to try to rescue Dong Xiaowan, but she once said that she knew Brother Yang, and the concubine didn't do anything out of the ordinary when she saw her, so she went. ”
