Chapter 267: Flower Protector
Declare each other's names, and they will break up. Although Xu Lin had the heart to inquire about the Five Immortals Sect, it was not good to be too eager, otherwise he was afraid that he would arouse the other party's vigilance.
Xu Lin continued to walk towards the brightly lit place in Hangyu Town, and he didn't even drink half a mouthful of water at the end of the day, although he could not eat or drink for a few days when he returned to the Void Realm, but when he had the conditions, Xu Lin still liked to taste delicious food everywhere.
Halfway up the mountain, where the lights are dim, it seems to be a street of eating, drinking and merrymaking. It's just that this place doesn't seem to be looking for a simple meal, there are red lanterns hanging at the door, and a few girls with heavy makeup are soliciting guests.
This kind of place is a place of fireworks at first glance.
However, if you want to eat a good meal, you can really find it in the Qinglou.
In this world, at least half of the celebrity chefs are in the Qinglou, the main reason is because the Qinglou is rich, and most of the entertainers are businessmen and magnates, and only these people can afford to spend a lot of money to invite celebrity chefs to help.
Seeing Xu Lin, a handsome young man, walking by, these sisters are also colorful, and it can be seen that although Xu Lin is dusty, he is a person who can squeeze out oil and water.
Xu Lin is now also the head of a big faction, and he was made an earl by the imperial court, and the reward given by the second prince is actually a lot, and he took one-tenth of the gold and silver treasures originally used to bribe the barbarians for the purpose of "building the earl's mansion".
But all the money for the reconstruction of the Edgeworth Gate was given by the apprentices, so the money was saved. So Xu Lin is still quite rich, not only has the faΓ§ade of the Imperial Sword Gate changed, but his own clothes have also changed, and even the artifact fire tongs are equipped with a delicate mahogany sword box, no longer the poor and sour appearance that he casually found a piece of linen to pick up.
The bold sister threw the towel away, and said with a smile: "Oh, this handsome little Langjun, I can see that the slave's heart is pounding, come and let my sister serve you, okay?" β
Although Xu Lin is a chick, he will not be dismayed by these vulgar powders, and after walking through the fat powder pile, Xu Lin came to the largest green building on this street-Yuzhen Building.
Compared with other green buildings, the style of this place is undoubtedly much higher, at least there are no women at the door to attract bees and butterflies. There is no need to attract guests like this, but the faΓ§ade is the largest and most magnificent, which shows that this Yuzhen Building has some real skills, maybe there is some famous Oiran in charge.
As soon as he entered the door, a small maid with a spirit came up in front of the screen and said to Xu Lin: "Distinguished guests are coming, please come with the little one." β
Xu Lin followed behind this little guy and asked casually, "Is there a private room?" β
"Distinguished guests, today is unfortunate, it is the day of Miss Yunge's performance, and the private seat box has already been given by several regular customers. The guest officer is the first time to come, and the little dare suggests that the guest officer move to the Qingyu Hall, the guests in the hall are all elegant scholars, and they can also see the whole picture of the performance stage, which is definitely a good location. β
Xu Lin was not interested in performing at the Oiran, but since the position was gone, Xu Lin didn't care that there were others next to him.
All the way forward, through a rather elegant courtyard, this is the inner building of the Yuzhen Building. Different from Xu Lin's imagination, the place in this building is empty, but there are not many people. It's just that there are fewer tables, and the scene looks very empty.
This green jade hall is actually a side hall on the left side of the first floor, and the eight carved large tables are still half open, but only one or two people sit at each table.
Xu Lin thought that he was going to share a table with someone, but he didn't expect it to be such a spelling, it seems that this Yuzhen Building is really luxurious.
"Miss Yunge's performance is in Mao, do the guest officers need to use some side dishes first? I don't know what scruples you have about the taste of the guest officer? The guy who led the way asked.
This made Xu Lin a little curious, now that he is a talent, this Yunge actually chose to perform in the early morning? Qinglou is not always lively at night, why does this Oiran do the opposite?
However, Xu Lin didn't ask much when he came here to eat, he casually threw a piece of broken silver over, and instructed the little servant: "Reward you, serve some dishes, I don't have anything to taboo." β
The little guy took the silver ingot, smiled even brighter because of the weight of the hand, and hurriedly said, "The guest officer will be served later, and the good wine and food will be served immediately." β
The little guy respectfully took a few steps back before turning to leave, and Xu Lin had time to look at the few guests next to him. It can be seen that the little guy is right, the guests in this Qingyu Hall all look polite and polite, looking like scholars, but Xu Lin looks a little different in a samurai uniform.
But Xu Lin is handsome, and after practicing "Drunken Immortal Moon Steps", he has a bit of an ethereal temperament, and he looks more like a gentleman than these scholars.
Xu made a generous move just now, which attracted the attention of the scholars at the table next to him, and several people looked at Xu Lin from time to time and whispered.
"Brother Zhang, we have less than two thousand taels now, if we don't ask for help, I'm afraid we won't be able to keep Miss Yunge's innocence today."
"Then you mean to bring this man into the gang?"
"I think he has a generous hand, but it doesn't seem that he is here for Miss Yunge, so maybe he can fight for it."
"But how can people pay for no reason?"
"It depends on Brother Zhang's three-inch tongue."
β¦β¦
Xu Lin originally didn't plan to eavesdrop, but when his martial arts practice reached his level, no matter how small the voices of these scholars were, he could hear them clearly. Xu Lin had never seen Oiran, but he had heard of this kind of person.
Most of the Oiran has a sign hanging that sells her body but does not sell herself, and then she is still a beautiful woman with both talents. It's just that these are just means to raise their value, and since they have fallen into the dust, they will eventually sell themselves. It's just that this selling body needs a good price, and the first time it is natural to make Qinglou make a lot of money.
But some people love these fallen beauties so much that they want to do their best to help them keep their innocence, hoping that one day they can redeem themselves and marry them.
Entering the cloud song performance, it probably also means that it is sold at a price. These scholars knew that they were not as good as the powerful and powerful men in the private box, so they planned to work together to see if they could fight for this first place. At that time, these people will naturally not have the slightest encroachment on Yun Ge, and once this matter is over, it can be regarded as keeping Yun Ge's free body.
It's just that it seems that the money they scraped together is not enough, and they want to pull Xu Lin into the gang. It's just that Xu Lin can't understand, why does this Zhang Shusheng think that he will be said to be the wronged leader?
Xu Lin didn't move, just watch a good show, anyway, if you want him to pay for what Oiran to hold, don't even think about it.
The scholar surnamed Zhang seemed to have made up his mind, stood up and walked over to Xu Lin, and said, "This brother, meeting is fate, why don't I invite Brother Tai for a drink?" β
Xu Lin glanced at him, he looked a little heroic, but his face was pale and his steps were vain, and he knew that his body was very weak at a glance. obviously didn't be able to hold the beauty, and I don't know how he could be so empty.
"Sorry, I don't drink with strangers." Xu Lin refused.
Zhang Shusheng's face became a little ugly, but he didn't expect Xu Lin to give him any face. The scholar changed his tone and said to Xu Lin: "Looking at the dress of Brother Tai, it should be a martial arts person, I'm afraid you don't know, now people like you are going to be in a big disaster." β
This pull relationship is not a threat, isn't it too broken and broken?
Xu Linyun asked lightly, "What do you mean by this?" β
"Don't you know that the Governor has ordered that all martial arts fights be thoroughly investigated, even if they are only armed people. This matter is still top secret for the time being, but it is also related to the officialdom, and I heard the news in advance. What's the matter, this news is worth a glass of wine, right? Zhang Shusheng said proudly.
At this time, the little guy from before sent Xu Lin the wine and food he wanted, the dishes were exquisite, the color and flavor were complete, and there was a small pot of aging.
Xu Lin poured a cup for this scholar Zhang and said, "Please." β
Oiran or something, Xu Lin didn't care, but he couldn't help but pay attention to the information related to Xie Guangxi.
Zhang Shusheng smiled proudly at his companions, then turned his head to Xu Lin and said, "Brother Tai, don't worry, this law has not been implemented for the time being. β
"Why did the Governor's Mansion suddenly start to take care of the affairs of the rivers and lakes?" Xu Lin asked.
"I haven't asked so much, but if you want to know more, brother, it's not that I can't ask you?" Zhang Shusheng pretended to be mysterious.
"Then I'm afraid I need to ask about these things, right?" Xu Lin didn't need Zhang Shusheng to speak, so he answered him.
Zhang Shusheng didn't expect Xu Lin to be so upright, and said with a smile: "This is natural, after all, it is the new law of the imperial court, and the relationship involved in this is very big." As long as five hundred taels of silver, I promise to help you find out what you want.
"Of course, this is the first time we have met, and you may not be able to believe me. As long as you give me five hundred taels of silver tickets, I can press my heirloom to you. Wait until I hear the news, and then use the news to redeem it, what do you think? β
After saying this, Zhang Shusheng took out a crested golden hairpin from his sleeve and put it on the table.
