Chapter 14: The Oiran Contest Comes to the Rescue

After Su Yuexue broke into the palace that night, she was paralyzed in Shangshu Mansion for several days. It's not that she's so settled, it's that she hasn't figured out what to do next. And there is no claw machine in this broken ancient world, no computer, not even a good-looking novel, she really doesn't know what to do except be paralyzed for a while.

"Ah, it's boring!" Su Yuexue is already an active person, her quiet for the past few days is already the limit, if she can't find anything interesting to do, she may suffocate to death.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?" When Su Yuexue was rolling around on the bed, Xiaohe pushed the door in, saw this scene, and asked suspiciously.

"Xiaohe, do you have any fun here?" Su Yuexue asked.

"What are we?" Xiaohe was a little strange, what are they, she and Su Yuexue are not in the same place, but she didn't ask much. If you want to say it's fun, it's nothing more than juggling or an opera team, but there is no team here now, how can this be good?

"Do you want to say no? Hey, I know. Su Yuexue saw that Xiaohe didn't answer for a long time, guessing that there might really be nothing interesting.

"Yes, miss, there really hasn't been anything interesting lately." Xiaohe replied truthfully.

"Hey, forget it, you go and rest first." Su Yuexue said to Xiaohe.

After Xiaohe retired, Su Yuexue sat at the table and pondered what to play. It's just that she doesn't have any special iron friends in this era, who should she go to? Hey, why don't you go find Ye Mochen, the only person she knows a little well here is Ye Mochen, although he continues to be cold, but for Su Yuexue, this is not a thing.

It's not that she didn't want to go to the General's Mansion to find Zhuge Changfeng and Zhuge Yuzheng, but first, the General's Mansion is very heavily guarded, and secondly, according to Zhuge Yuzheng's temperament, she won't go out late at night, and it feels a little strange if she only brings Zhuge Changfeng, after all, his degree of joy can be compared with herself, and she doesn't want to make any trouble. So it's safer to find Ye Mochen, thinking so, Su Yuexue quickly changed into men's clothes.

Su Yuexue took two pillows and put them in the center of the bed, then covered them with a quilt, pretending that she had already slept, she thought that no one would come to her room in the middle of the night.

After doing this, Su Yuexue quickly extinguished the candle flame and walked out of the room. Su Yuexue dodged a few patrolling family members, she walked to the corner of the wall, jumped up to the wall, and then jumped down when she saw that there was no one around.

Su Yuexue walked leisurely on the road, thinking about how to turn Ye Mochen out later, when he suddenly saw a man in black walking on the road. She felt a little strange what this person was going to do on this big night.

Driven by curiosity, Su Yuexue quietly followed the man in black, but the speed of the man in black was very fast, and Su Yuexue lost it when she walked to a corner. She looked up and saw that she had actually walked in front of the Zuixiang Building.

There is a sign in front of the door of the drunken incense building, which reads: 'Oiran Contest, the winner of the highest price is the crown.' ’

Su Yuexue thought about it for a while and thought it was quite interesting, anyway, she was bored, so it was good to go in and watch the performance. Su Yuexue smiled, and when she was about to go in, she was stopped by two people at the door.

"Childe, in today's Oiran Contest, you have to pay twenty taels of silver before you can enter." The guard said.

I'll go, twenty taels, why don't you grab it? It's twenty taels to go in and see, so if the bid is too high, fortunately she went out with some money, forget it, it's a high-end concert, but it's really a little painful.

After Su Yuexue paid the money, she walked into the Zuixiang Building, and she chose a corner position on the second floor to sit down. There were wine jugs and wine glasses on every table, and Su Yuexue poured a glass of wine and watched the performance of the women on the stage.

The first one to play was a woman named Cui'er, and Su Yuexue recognized Cui'er as the woman who leaned on Su Hang when she came to Zuixianglou before. I saw Cui'er wearing a green bandeau dress with a light blue veil on her body. Cui'er twisted her body to the sound of the piano, her hands and legs were also swinging, one in front and one behind, one left and one right, although the appearance was very bewitching and Su Yuexue didn't like it very much, but to be honest, she danced quite well. Especially those hooking eyes have been staring at the officials in the audience, Su Yuexue saw that the eyes of those people revealed a trace of evil, she couldn't help but shake her head, it seems that most men are lustful creatures.

The second one on the stage was a woman named Yu'er, she was wearing a white dress, her eyes were a little moist, Su Yuexue couldn't help but wonder, what happened to this girl? Could it be that she was forced to come? Before Su Yuexue could finish thinking, Yu'er started to perform, and she was now singing a very melodious and tactful tune on stage, and her ethereal voice matched the tune, which felt very compatible. It's just that the number of people who cheered this time was obviously not as large as Cui'er just now.

The third, the fourth, until the ninth person finished performing, Su Yuexue didn't feel anything special, and there was no performance that made her eyes shine, she couldn't help but be a little disappointed, it seems that this time the silver was spent in vain.

When the ninth person went down, the old bustard came up, and she said with a smile: "Next is the playing time of the girl like smoke." As soon as the bustard finished speaking, the officials who had no energy looked at the stage with shining eyes.

Ruyan was wearing a pink gauze skirt with a white veil, she slowly walked to the stage and nodded slightly, and then walked into a place separated by light yarn and sat down, with a pipa in front of her.

Like smoke playing the pipa, she sang softly, her singing voice is very easy to make people immersive, substituting people into the scene, so that everyone unconsciously closes their eyes and tastes this song carefully.

Just when everyone was still listening, a drunk, pot-bellied man somehow walked onto the stage. With a hint of evil in his eyes, he grabbed Ruyan's hand.

Ruyan didn't notice because she was concentrating on singing, and when she reacted, her hand had been tightly grasped by the ill-intentioned man, and Ruyan struggled desperately but couldn't break free.

"Yo, isn't this Zhang Gongzi? Zhang Gongzi, we are like smoke and we are performing, please let go first. At this time, the old bustard came up to relieve the siege of Ruyan, of course, the tone was not so good.

"Get out of here, I'm going to be with me today." Zhang Gongzi unceremoniously shook off the bustard, and was about to go upstairs with Ruyan.

The old bustard motioned to his thugs to stop Zhang Gongzi, but they were all beaten down by Zhang Gongzi's men. Su Yuexue was helpless, this thug of Drunken Xianglou was too vegetable, Su Yuexue raised the wine glass in her hand and threw it at Zhang Gongzi's head.

"Who, which rabbit cub beat me, I don't want to live anymore!" Zhang Gongzi touched his head angrily, and Ruyan also took the opportunity to escape her confinement. Su Yuexue continued to drink, but Zhang Gongzi walked up to Su Yuexue as if he had found out that she had beaten him.

"You rabbit hit me." Zhang Gongzi said and pulled Su Yuexue's clothes and wanted to pull her up. Su Yuexue closed her eyes, she put her hand on Zhang Gongzi's hand and twisted it slightly, and Zhang Gongzi felt a sharp pain in her hand. Seeing this, Su Yuexue raised her foot and kicked Zhang Gongzi's stomach hard, and Zhang Gongzi was immediately kicked downstairs.

"Ouch, come on, grab this little bunny for me!" Zhang Gongzi sat up and shouted to his subordinates, those subordinates all came up to catch Su Yuexue when they heard the words, but Su Yuexue still just sat and waved her fist and beat those people to the ground.

It's just that those people do have some skills, they immediately got up and continued to attack Su Yuexue, Su Yuexue fell backwards, kicked those subordinates with both feet, and those subordinates were kicked to the side of the stairs one by one, and just rolled down.

Some of them covered their faces, some covered their stomachs and squeaked, the old bustard saw this and ordered the thugs to throw them out one by one, she would not be polite if she dared to make trouble in her drunken fragrance building, she was very protective of the girls in the building, especially Ruyan, Ruyan is her signature.

After those people were thrown out, Su Yuexue walked to Ruyan's side to see how she was. Ruyan also approached Su Yuexue, the two looked at each other, and Ruyan helped Su Yuexue.

"Master Su, thank you for your help, otherwise I'm afraid of smoke." Ruyan said, with some tears in his eyes.

"Miss Ruyan doesn't have to be polite, just think that I have repaid Miss Ruyan's kindness last time. It's nothing. Su Yuexue lowered her voice, because she saw the bustard walking towards them, she didn't want the bustard to find out that she and Ruyan had already known each other before.

"Ouch, thank you for your help this time, otherwise it would be another trouble. I haven't asked my son's name yet. The old bustard said with a grin.

"The two of you are polite, under the surname Su, this time the matter is really nothing, anyone who is a little bloody will come up to help." Su Yuexue said this, because she felt that anyone with blood and a sense of justice would do this.

"And that kind of bully doesn't teach me a lesson, and I don't feel comfortable teaching it." Su Yuexue continued, "By the way, Miss Ruyan is okay, right?" Su Yuexue was a little worried, after all, Ruyan looked very weak, and she was a little worried that Ruyan was pinched by that Zhang Gongzi and injured her hand.

"I'm fine, Childe doesn't have to worry, Childe helped me today, why don't I invite Childe to have a drink." Ruyan said this, and the old bustard did not object, after all, it was Su Yuexue who rescued Ruyan this time, and it was right to thank her.

The old bustard smiled, took Su Yuexue into a room next to him, and then ordered the people below to bring some wine and food.

Ruyan and Su Yuexue sat down, then raised the wine glass in front of them, and without saying much, the two drank a glass of wine first. Su Yuexue looked at Ruyan, and felt that although Ruyan was a Qinglou woman, she had a dusty temperament, elegant as a chrysanthemum, and had a feeling that was different from other Qinglou women, so she had a good impression.
