Chapter 672: The Demon Girl of the Capital
"What are they talking about here?" Xicui heard downstairs talking about the demon girl in the capital, isn't this talking about Niangniang? His face changed slightly, and he said angrily.
Fei Ranchu's eyes changed slightly, and he slowly looked downstairs, and everyone was enthusiastic about the interesting things in the capital.
"Xicui, don't act rashly, besides, if you rush over, there are so many of them, is your words more effective than storytellers?"
"Miss, it's all this time, and you still don't take it to heart. It's all here, I really don't know what those people mean? Xicui didn't know what Fei Ran was thinking, but these people were just joking.
Fira smiled but didn't say anything.
Gu Xuan listened to the words in his ears, poured himself a cup of tea, and asked blankly: "What are you talking about?" β
"What are we talking about, Brother Gu Xuan probably already knows, why bother asking." Fei Ranchu smiled and asked rhetorically, took the tea he pushed, and pinched it in his hand but didn't move.
Thinking of what Gu Xuan said to her when she was leaving, there was something in the words, could it be related to the affairs of the Wang family.
Between the two, there was silence again.
The originally noisy storytelling hall instantly fell silent.
I saw that an elegant scholar in the audience slowly walked up to the stage and quietly looked at the people present.
Fei Ranchu's expression was calm, looking at the audience interestingly, one hand supporting his chin, but curious what he was going to talk about today?
"Today, the content of the story is yesterday's interesting story in Beijing, I don't know if you can be interested." The scholar picked up the fan placed on the table and played slowly with it in his hand.
As soon as the words fell, it instantly became noisy and discussed.
"This is interesting, it's much more interesting than those clichΓ©d plots, and I don't know if it's true or false in the capital. Yesterday's good show was missed. β
"There can still be fakes, it's all spread here. I heard that there was a plague in the capital, and it was all done by this demon girl, who specialized in sucking the essence of men to cultivate, and it seemed that even the emperor was bewitched. β
β¦β¦
"Everyone be quiet, don't talk nonsense, I'm a poor scholar, but I am seeking truth from facts, don't spread nonsense, if others hear it, I will be in trouble."
The scholar stood on the stage with a serious face, watching everyone's fierce reactions, and enjoying it.
"This thing has to start in the capital, I heard that a year ago, the queen who disappeared suddenly returned to the capital, and her appearance changed greatly, and she was even more handsome than before. Along the way, she pretended to heal and save people, but everyone she touched was infected with the plague. This disease seems to be an ordinary wind chill, but it will kill people! β
The scholar picked up the fan and talked about it in a fashionable manner, with an exaggerated and fascinating expression.
"This place for listening to books, when has it changed, it is much younger than the old man before."
When Fei Ran first heard this story, wasn't it the scene when she returned to Beijing?
I didn't expect it to be so evil, I could write a book.
Seeing Fei Ranchu's indifferent appearance, Xicui didn't change at all, and couldn't help but be anxious: "Miss." β
Just as he was about to say something, he heard the laughter of several sons at the next table.
"Little lady, you don't know yet, do you? The story told by this boy is much better than the old man before, and the story is fascinating, but he came from the capital a few days ago. β
A boy in a blue shirt said with a smile, looking at this little lady who looked beautiful, he was attracted for a while, and deliberately approached.
When Fei Ran first heard this, she didn't expect this scholar to come from the capital: "I see, no wonder I haven't seen it." β
"Little lady, you haven't been here to listen to books for a while, do you want me to tell you the previous story?" Brother Gongzi smiled and said that he was about to come over.
Darkmoon held a sword vigilantly in her hand, blocking his way.
Before Brother Gongzi came over, he saw that the woman was fierce and vicious, and he was so frightened that he took a few steps back.
Looking at the dress of a few people, they were not from here, and they didn't want to get into trouble, so they obediently walked back to their original positions.
During the first conversation of Fira, the story was told to a wonderful plot.
"This demon girl scourged the capital, and after being discovered by the emperor, she was even taken back to the palace and treated her as the queen of the past."
"How so? The emperor was simply dizzy and was tempted by the demon girl. β
"It's like, I don't think what's going on? The demon girl should be punished for harming the capital. β
"Do you want to know what happened next?" The scholar looked at the audience and caused a lot of reaction, and took a sip of herbal tea and said.
Everyone became more and more curious, watching the gongs and drums, one by one, Xiao Er slowly came to the stage, holding a money jar in his hand, and everyone threw money one after another.
The scholar looked at everyone's reactions, then nodded with satisfaction and continued:
"As for the emperor's approach, the grass people dare not judge. The ministers of the court knew that the emperor had taken the demon girl back to the palace. turned the harem scourge upside down, not only that, but the minister's opinion was not listened to, and the demon girl mocked and refuted the minister in public, and the loyal minister was helpless, but he couldn't do anything, so he could only watch the demon girl scourge ......"
Fei Ranchu sat quietly on the second floor, listening to all this, but she never thought that as a scholar, she even knew clearly about the conversation she had with the minister that day, could it be that he was a person in the palace?
"Ran'er, what are you thinking? Why are you so upset when you come here? Gu Xuan's tone was soft, and he personally poured a cup of hot tea for her and pushed it in front of her.
Fei Ranchu's bright eyes turned to him with a little suspicion, and slowly turned to him: "Gu Xuan, you already know my identity, why do you pretend not to know?" Is there anything else you are hiding from me? β
"What are you talking about, how can you hide it?" Gu Xuan's eyes changed slightly, and he hid the past very well.
Fei Ranchu listened to the noisy sounds around him, quickly covered up the conversation between the two, met his gentle gaze, his throat seemed to be blocked by something, a few choked, shook his head helplessly, and pinched the teacup in his hand.
At this time, the audience was noisy again.
The young scholar has stepped down from the stage, and an old man has come up and talked about boring classics
The originally noisy and lively environment instantly quieted down, quietly listening to the old man talk about the classics, obviously not having the interest just now, and some people had already turned around and left silently.
Fira didn't think of this era at first, and some people like to pay attention to these strange gossip, preferring to believe nonsensical rumors.
After listening to the old man's story, everyone went out one after another.
When Fei Ran first returned to her residence, she had just sat down to rest her feet when she saw Xicui's worried face.
"What's wrong? When I saw you coming, I was not very interested. β
"What else do you say, Miss? Did You Know? What happened today, those people are really too much, especially the young scholar is obviously bewitched by others, why don't you expose them in front of you when you talk about these nonsense. Xi Cuiqi's little face flushed.
