Chapter 22: A Night Visit to the Prison
When the situation was serious, someone shouted, "He still has one in his hand." ”
"Huh", everyone's eyes turned to Qingge, Qingge glanced around inexplicably, what is this?
"Childe, quick, vote for Miss Fenghe, and you'll have to vote."
"Childe, you should vote for Miss Ziyuan."
"Yes, yes, although it is the first time that the Aster Girl has competed, her singing voice is really a must!" The different chaotic sounds behind him hit Qingge's eardrums, making Qingge still a little unable to react.
"This son, please come on stage and put your flowers into your favorite flower goddess basket." Bu Danyang reminded with a smile on stage.
Everyone consciously got out of the way, and Qingge hesitantly came to the stage from the crowd, and finally came back to his senses. Damn, the two women in the top row actually have the same number of votes, which is embarrassing, the eyes of the twelve pretty women on the stage moved with Qingge's pace, staring at Qingge one by one, and the deep meaning in their eyes was unknown.
Qingge touched his nose, smiled awkwardly, and said, "I don't like to choose very much, the two girls have the same number of votes right now, if I abstain, it doesn't seem appropriate, but let me choose, I don't know which one is better, so let's give the choice to the two girls, who is elected as the flower goddess depends on their own ability, okay?" ”
The two women glanced at each other, not seeing too much emotion, and both nodded towards Qingge in agreement.
"Alright! Since they have agreed, let's ask the two girls to draw lots to decide, and the long one will get the bouquet in my hand, let's draw! Qingge folded the flower branch in his hand into two different sections behind his back, held it tightly in his hand, and then handed it to the two of them.
“……”
“……”
After a pause of silence, the Aster girl took the lead.
When everyone was still messy and felt that it was too child's play, the results had already come out.
"It seems that today's daughter of the god of flowers is none other than Miss Fenghe." Qingge glanced at the aster amusedly, and threw the roses in his hand into the basket of maple lotus.
"That'...... Congratulations to Miss Kaede. Seeing this result, Ziyuan on the side still smiled, but his eyes were a little deeper.
Feng He received Qingge's bouquet of flowers, did not speak, did not have too much joy, and nodded slightly.
"Wow! Lady Kaede Lotus wins. The crowd burst into cheers, and the atmosphere was high.
On the other hand, Qingge was not too excited, and it could be seen that the crowd who were constantly cheering seemed to be in a much happier mood, and he didn't pay attention to the resentful gaze from behind him.
Water Moon Pavilion
"Bang Bang ......" There was a clear slap in one of the boudoirs in the Water Moon Pavilion.
"What did you do? That slut hurt his face and still won the first place. ”
The woman glared angrily at the girl kneeling at her feet.
"Slaves deserve to die." The girl lowered her head aggrievedly, not daring to have a trace of justification, although she couldn't be blamed for today's result.
"Damn, hmph, you deserve to die, but now is not the time for you to die, when you are done, I will fulfill you with your young lady, go and check that little white face, who dares to stand in my way." The woman's face became distorted.
"Yes, miss." The little girl lowered her head and retreated, the corner of her eyes swept over the figure on the round stool, and her body trembled.
Suigetsukaku is one of the most prestigious of all the Blue House Chu Pavilions in Kyoto. It is different from other green buildings, its women are gorgeous, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and etiquette, light songs and dances, and the women in the pavilion only drink tea and chat with people to talk about the piano and make poems. To put it bluntly, you don't sell your body, of course, you can act like this, and the forces behind it cannot be underestimated.
The election of the goddess of flowers is a folk event, which is held on the fourth day of April every year, voted by young men and women, and sacrificed at the temple on the birthday of the goddess of flowers, praying for good weather and a good harvest for the people. Due to the relatively low status of the women in the election, the children of the nobles in the capital do not take care of it, but this does not affect it as an after-dinner conversation, and life always has to have some spices to not seem boring.
After a lively day, Qingge was very happy, both ancient and modern, this person likes entertainment. Shaking the tea in the teacup, Qing Singer held his head and squinted slightly to see the setting sun, and the afterglow of dusk sprinkled a thin layer on Qing Ge's body, which was a little dazzling.
"Yo, it's a good mood, what about drinking tea alone?"
Qingge turned around and saw a young man with a happy face, "Why are you here?" ”
"Didn't I pass by, I just happened to see you, come up and say hello."
"Shhhh Boy, find a better reason to lie, you are too perfunctory. Qingge's gaze swept over Bai Xiaoji's body and continued to watch the sunset.
"You woman, why are you so uncute." Bai Xiaoji sat down opposite Qingge and poured herself a cup of tea.
"Tell me, what's the matter with me?" Qingge casually swallowed a sip of tea.
"You have to be careful lately, Kyoto hasn't been very peaceful lately." Bai Xiaoji smiled.
"I'm a common person, and Kyoto is too peaceful to care about me."
"Yes! You are a common man of unknown origin and skillful. Bai Xiaoji stared at Qingge and teased the corners of her mouth.
Qingge was a little uncomfortable, but he still looked back at Bai Xiaoji, "My position has been made very clear, and I don't want to repeat it." ”
Feeling Qingge's displeasure, Bai Xiaoji put up a white flag, "Just kidding, don't take it seriously, but something will happen in Kyoto recently, you should be careful." ”
"Is it for me or is it just a kind reminder?" Qingge knew that he had also caused a lot of trouble.
"It's not aimed at you, it's just that your identity is unknown and this skill is not enough, and I am afraid of getting into unnecessary trouble."
"Say it! What the hell are you looking for me? Qingge looked the white thistle up and down, this kid doesn't seem to be able to send warmth to people, let alone his master.
"Ye Qingge, you ......." Bai Xiaoji felt that she was about to lose face, how could this woman guess it.
"Didn't you say you wanted to take refuge in our son? I'll show you the way, you go to someone who is important to us. Bai Xiaoji said angrily.
"Looking for whom? Where to find it? ”
"In Jing Zhaoyin's prison, find a man in his early twenties with crippled legs." White thistle is roughly described.
"Prison? Big brother, you are in prison and my house, can you come and go as you like? Qingge looked at Bai Xiaoji with your idiot expression, "Wait, you won't want me to ......", Qingge stared at Bai Xiaoji with wide eyes and incredulity.
Bai Xiaoji's evil face was clearly visible in Qingge's eyes, and Qingge wanted to slap him to death.
"Okay, you white thistle, your heart is so bad, I'm a good girl, you actually want to send me to prison, what do you think?"
"Hey...... Ay...... Stop, what do you want? It's not what you think, don't think about it. Bai Xiaoji glanced at Qingge.
"You made it clear to me, what is it? When? ”
Bai Xiaoji beckoned to Qingge, motioned to lean forward, and briefly explained the plan to Qingge.
Qingge sat back in his chair and pondered quietly, thinking about the feasibility of things.
"Are you sure I'll go, or aren't you afraid I'll leak it?" Qingge asked tentatively.
"You won't, if you still want to mess around in the capital." Bai Xiaoji smiled evilly.
"Don't be too absolute, otherwise it's easy to slap your face. Still, you're really right about it, okay! See you tomorrow night. Qingge got up and opened the door.
Bai Xiaoji resumed her sunny smile again, "Then I'll see you tomorrow night." ”
Sending Bai Xiaoji away, Qingge looked back at the things on the table and fell into deep thought.
In the evening of the next day, the white thistle came as promised.
The two summed it up and decided to act after the third watch.
"Who is the other party, who is worth your trouble? You don't seem to be such a zealous person, do you? Qingge looked suspiciously at Bai Xiaoji, who was drinking tea with Erlang's legs crossed.
"You don't know, you just need to find someone and feed the medicine I gave you, and it's over."
"Bai Xiaoji, it's better that things are as simple as you say, otherwise, I will beat you all over the ground looking for teeth." Qingge squinted and threatened.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to follow you! Can I still sell you? "Bai Xiaoji threw away a reassuring look.
The two chatted for a while, and the third watch arrived soon.
The two dressed in black jumped from the window, and under the leadership of Bai Xiaoji, the two came to Jingzhao Yin Prison one after the other. At this moment, in the dead of night, it was pitch black all around, and the guards hung their heads on both sides, listless.
"I'll lead the guards away later, and you can go in by yourself, be careful." Bai Xiaoji smiled and patted Qingge's shoulder.
Qingge glanced at Bai Xiaoji, how could she have a bad premonition? Don't let her think about it, Bai Xiaoji took the lead.
Watching the guards chase after him from afar, Qingge quickly entered the cell through the gate. There was an oil lamp lit in the cell, and the light was not very good, but it was enough for Qingge to see the layout of the cell at a glance. The first time to do such a sneaky thing, Qingge was still a little nervous in his heart, but it was more exciting.
In the middle of the night, the people in the cell were all in a state of deep sleep, and it was not difficult for Qingge to act, and the people described by Bai Xiaoji were also quite recognizable.
Qingge looked for it lightly, carefully identified, searched for more than a dozen rooms but did not find anyone, the smell in the cell was not good, and the snoring of prisoners was heard from time to time, Qingge's heart was tormented in a tense and exciting atmosphere, and it really took courage to do bad things. After searching for more than a dozen rooms without success, Qingge couldn't help but become impetuous, and a thought came out of his heart, whether Bai Xiaoji would deceive himself. Yaoyao's head, another voice came out, Bai Xiaoji would not be so boring, and deceived herself.
Finally, when it came to the last cell, the thing that disappointed Qingge was not the person Bai Xiaoji described. Qingge gritted his teeth, okay, you little white thistle, see how I go out to settle accounts with you, and then turn around and plan to leave. This turn of the year startled Qingge, a woman in official clothes clasped her hands in front of her chest, staring at her.
"I wonder who Your Excellency is looking for? Say it, I'll help you find it? ”
Qingge smiled lightly and said, "Don't work for you, it's too late, I'll leave first." ”
"Let's go? Why don't you have a cup of tea and go? The woman smiled contemptuously.
"Tea doesn't have to be." Qingge looked at the woman in front of him, thinking about what his chances of winning were?
"Do you think this is your home? Just go. The woman's voice fell, and the sword in her hand came to her.
Qingge, who had been on guard early in the morning, dodged gently, and the woman turned around again, and the sword slashed against the face towel on Qingge's face, but fortunately Qingge moved quickly and was not injured. Qingge didn't want to attract too much movement, nor did he want to entangle with the woman more, so he used a few tricks to take care of the house, quickly snatched the sword from the other party's hand, turned around and left the prison, and plunged into the night.
Looking at the figure running away, Lin Banxia did not chase it out, but looked thoughtful.
This woman dressed as a woman is so powerful, thinking that she Lin Banxia is also a force that cannot be underestimated, even if she is so invincible to this woman, and this woman has not hurt herself at all, this is interesting, and what is even more interesting is her moves.
