When Zhang Mengtan heard my words, he was stunned at first, and then slapped his hands and laughed: "The girl is really worthy of being a psychic person, and she can't hide anything from you in her heart." ”

In the rainbow weaving workshop, Si'er was helping Wuxian pick up clothes, and as soon as she heard Zhang Mengtan's laughter, she cast an inquiring glance at me. I smiled and waved my hand at her, turned to Zhang Meng and said, "Mr. is too famous, my daughter's family is more careful." ”

Zhang Mengtan bent the corners of his mouth and lowered his head and coughed lightly, and when he raised his head again, he seemed to have put away his smile and the hypocritical panic: "Since the girl has already made it clear, then Meng Tan has nothing to hide." The girl is an orphan girl carefully raised in General Qin's mansion, with unparalleled appearance and seven tricks. Two years ago, Meng Tan met the girl for the first time, and the girl was still a kabuki from Prince Qin's mansion. Two years later, Prince Qin changed, but the girl changed and became a senior disciple of our Jin Kingdom Taishi and a guest of Siqing. The girl's encounter is really a bit bizarre for a woman. This made it difficult for Meng Tan not to be suspicious. ”

"The fine work of the Qin people? Because I am the one brought back by Zhao Shizi personally, there is really no one in the Jin Kingdom who doubts me like Mr. What is the gentleman worried about? Afraid that I was ordered by Uncle Qin to make waves in the Jin Kingdom? ”

"Qin and Jin are adjacent, and a Qin girl with a mysterious background has become the god son of the Jin people. If the Jin State moves troops with the Qin State in the future, it will have to ask a Qin woman whether it is war or peace, good fortune or evil, isn't this worrying enough? ”

I was slightly stunned, and said in a low voice: "Qin Jin is now peace, not war. ”

"Girl, what do you see here?" Zhang Mengtan smiled and looked at the market outside the rainbow weaving workshop.

"The riches of the land, the merchants of the nations."

"That's on the surface." Zhang Mengtan looked at me, a pair of dark brown eyes surging with dark tides, "In this market, there are goods coming from the south to the north, and there is news from the south to the north." There are secret agents of the Yan people in the north, secret envoys of the Chu people in the south, Jin State, Zheng State, Wei State, and Song State, but only the secret agents of the Qin people are the most secret and terrifying. I have been an official in Qin for several years on behalf of the head of the family, and I understand the tiger and wolf heart of the Qin people. Although Mu Gong died, Qin Jun's ambition to break through the Jin State and enter the Central Plains in the east has never been broken. Whether the girl was ordered by the Qin people, Meng Tan didn't know. It's just that now the joys, sorrows, and sorrows of the head of the family are in the hands of the girl, which is really not a blessing for the minister. ”

Zhang Mengtan's words instantly reminded me of a military newspaper and a stack of secret letters that I read in the General's Mansion when I was a child. This is the first time I have come to the country of Qi, but the map of Linzi City, when I was twelve years old, I was already able to draw it on goatskin from memory. In the Qi Palace, the palaces and pavilions, the layout of the bedrooms, and the secret letters of the Qin people are also recorded in detail. What did the Qin people do with maps? Besiege? Assassinate? In fifty years, maybe not. But in another 100 years, 200 years, it may be practical.

I can't refute Zhang Meng's talk, because I know that the dark line of the Qin people in various countries has been laid long before the two generations of monarchs. Although Gongzili is now allied with the Jin people, if God gives him a chance to step on the Central Plains, he will never let it go. The Qin State has been dormant in the west for many years, and on the surface it does not compete with the countries of the Central Plains, but their eyes have never been closed when they look at the east.

I don't want to talk about the Qin State with Wuxi, and I won't talk about the Jin State with Wu Feng and Gongzili. I stood between Qin and Jin, and I just wanted to rot all the secrets I knew in my heart. Zhang Mengtan's wariness of me is a way for him to protect Wuxi. To him, this is loyalty, and there is nothing wrong with it.

I knew that it was useless to say more about my special identity, so I smiled and avoided his aggressive gaze: "Ah Shi originally thought, since Mr. is infatuated with the girl in the workshop, he must be a person of my generation. Unexpectedly, Mr. was only tolerant of himself, but he was very strict with him. ”

Zhang Mengtan sneered, it seemed that he expected that I would not respond to his topic about the secret agents of the Qin State, "The head of the family has a heavy responsibility, and indulging in the personal affairs of his children will only ruin his years of hard work." Meng Tan is just a common person, and Qingge and I are not what the girl thinks. ”

"It doesn't matter if it's what I think it is, Mr. Ah Shi only knows that Mr. Zhizhi is going to Qingle Fang today no matter what." I glanced at the red lacquer gift box that Zhang Mengtan had been holding in my hand, and walked down the steps with a smile. Zhang Mengtan seemed to sigh lightly, and then followed.

"Mr. said yesterday that the Bank of China deliberately lied to me by killing his old father, wife and children if what he said was not true, right?" I walked in the middle of the road, trying to avoid the crowds.

"The girl is smart. The head of the house said that the girl had just arrived in Linzi, and the earth had not yet received the earth, so she wanted to accumulate virtue. Therefore, when he comes back from Guangrao, he will release him regardless of whether the news is true or not. Zhang Mengtan pulled my sleeve and pulled me into an alley facing the street, "Let's go this way, there are fewer people." ”

Two courtyard walls made of bluestone separated a quiet path on one side of the bustling long street, and I bent down to avoid the rows of dried fish drying overhead, and asked, "Doesn't Sir want to release people without shirts?" ”

Zhang Mengtan said disdainfully: "Bank of China is just an incompetent villain, it doesn't matter whether his family is killed or released." Meng Tan just didn't want the head of the family to be more influenced by the girl. ”

I joined Qi this time, I just wanted to do something to help him by Wuxian's side, so that he could return to Jin safely as soon as possible, but I didn't expect it to cause Zhang Mengtan to worry about me. I stopped silently, thought for a moment, and said, "It's Mr. Ah Shirang who bothered." In fact, as long as Wuxian is safe and sound, I can not ask about the affairs of Qi State. As for the detailed statement, it is really nonsense, I don't want to defend anything, my husband will get along with me for a long time in the future, and he will naturally understand. ”

"Thank you, girl!" Zhang Mengtan smiled indifferently and raised his hand to salute.

"Let's go." I glanced back at the empty alley and continued to walk.

It took only half an hour to walk from Kangzhuang to Yongmen Street. There are no noisy crowds here, vendors everywhere, standing at the end of Yongmen Street and taking a deep breath, only the pungent aroma. Fat powder fragrance, wine fragrance, woman fragrance.

The ground under the feet is not stained with a little dust, and the smooth bluestone slab still has the color of the washed water, and the sun shines brightly, and the golden light extends to the end of the road.

Thirty-six world-famous teaching workshops are built on the street, with heavy makeup and light makeup, each with its own characteristics. Straddle the horse and hold the sword, how many rangers came to the Qi country, just to take a look at the red sleeves of this building.

At this time, just after the time of eating, in front of the door of the workshop, the beautiful maid and the little servant were carrying buckets and cleaning the courtyards with rags.

More than 100 years ago, Qi Xiang Guan Zhong set up 700 women's music in Qi and opened the first teaching workshop in the world. Since then, Qidi has enacted a tax law to levy women's night money for national use. Qi Huan Gong dominated the world back then, and this woman with wide clothes and untied belts on Yongmen Street also had a great contribution.

For example, in various countries today, teaching workshops are blooming everywhere, but the most famous one is this Yongmen Street in Linzi City. No matter where you are, no matter where you come from, as long as you have money, you can enjoy all the beauties in the world overnight.

I looked up at each half-closed window, and sketched in my mind the beautiful woman leaning behind the window at the moment, lazy to comb.

"We're here." Zhang Mengtan raised his hand and stopped me from thinking about it.

"This is Qingle Fang?" Compared with the other red and green workshops on Yongmen Street, the blue tiles and white walls of Qingle Fang in front of you look more like a plain scribe's courtyard.

"Two, please inside—" As soon as the beaded curtain was lifted, a young man with delicate eyebrows came out of it.

"Miss Qingge is here now?" Zhang Mengtan dusted his sleeves and asked casually. I glanced at him, and said in my heart, no matter how much he Zhang Mengtan denied the relationship with Leki Qingge, just the tone and eyes of his words exposed his careful thoughts.

"The girl is here, please come in first." The boy grinned toothily and respectfully ushered us in.

There is a cave in Qingle Fang.

After entering the curtain of pearls, four little maids in white clothes and pink skirts greeted us, two supported us, and two respectfully knelt down and took turns to wipe our shoes and boots with wet cloths and dry cloths. On my left-hand side against the wall, there is a row of painted wooden shelves, divided into seven layers from top to bottom, on which are all kinds of wooden slabs painted with flowers and plants. Only the top piece of wood is different from the side, and it is simply painted with black lacquer on the wooden sheet with a red background.

"Gao Dongjia is still in the old position today?" The young man who led the way asked.

"Old position, don't drink pear blossom spring today, get drunk, and serve a fine white bone cup."

"Okay, I'll get it to you right away!" The boy bowed slightly, and trotted into a small door on the right.

Zhang Mengtan opened the four little maids who were serving, and led me through the corridor and courtyard to a bright hall with ease.

The hall was filled with fragrant incense, and pale blue mats were spread on the floor. In the corner of the room were placed four bronze artist-kneeling lampstands more than one foot high. Zhang Mengtan took me to a small table by the window and sat down, and soon six sweet-looking young women pushed open the veiled wooden door and walked in with Yaoqin in their arms.

"Which one do you like, click it?" Zhang Mengtan took the wine jug sent by the maidservant, looked down at the thin white bone cup on the small table, and the six beauties in front of him seemed to be unable to arouse his interest.

"The one with Zeeland embroidered on the skirt." I stretched out my hand, and the other five girls who were not selected immediately bowed slightly, closed the door with great grace, and withdrew.

What a group of women who are as beautiful as flowers and have a degree of advance and retreat! Those merchants from lowly backgrounds can feel the treatment of the Qing family as long as they spend a gold in Qingle Fang, and it is no wonder that the teaching workshop in Qidi is famous all over the world.

"This Qi country has such a good place to go, no wonder men from all over the world don't want to go back when they come." I looked at the beautiful woman holding the piano in front of me and smiled.

"It's still early, and at night, this Yongmen Street is the real place of ecstasy." Zhang Mengtan laughed and drank with his head down.

"What tune do you want to listen to, sir?" The beauty walked up to us and knelt down in front of us with Yaoqin in her arms, and the sound was like the cry of a yellow bird on the branches in the morning, crisp and sweet.

"Don't caress Qingge, just caress it on weekdays." Zhang Mengtan raised his hand and pulled a golden tassel hanging from the beam, and a layer of smoke and fog immediately fell down, separating the girl who was stroking the qin from the curtain.

"Heh, is there only one Qingge girl in this Qingle Workshop who can enter the eyes of Mr.?" I glanced at the aggrieved beauty outside the light veil, and teased, "That little brother will have to take a good look at it later, how beautiful this moving musician Qingge is." ”

"I haven't seen Qingge's face." Zhang Mengtan pushed a few plates of dried fruits to my side.

"What?!" This answer was unexpected.
