Chapter 111: The Elite of the Four Kingdoms Gathers
The entire Mengxian Building fell into a boil.
On the high platform in the lobby, more than a dozen young women in golden dance clothes have their eyes fluttering, and their postures are graceful, revealing the charm and enchantment vividly and vividly. The countless men sitting around were shouting and crazy like crazy, and they couldn't take their eyes off it. Some even opened their mouths wide, not even noticing that saliva was coming out.
On the fourth floor, Luo Qingluan and the others were quite satisfied, and this is what they wanted!
Nangong Yu nodded again and again: "I thought it was just dancing, but I didn't expect even the music to be so different, it's really wonderful!" ”
The combination of Hu Dance and Belly Dance is originally a reflection of an exotic style, not only in different dresses, different in dress, but also in music. When Luo Qingluan discussed with Yan'er before, she asked Yan'er about the soundtrack. The two discussed and improved with each other, and the final result was this antique but very different tune.
Luo Qingluan was looking forward to the bid he was waiting for, and he didn't know what the highest price that the rich people present could give. Those wealthy businessmen, officials of Western Chu, and even some talented people, young masters and sons, all stared at Yan'er at the front, their eyes were obsessed and fanatical. Don't think about it, I'm afraid that basically everyone is staring at Yan'er, and when the one with the highest bid will be accompanied by Yan'er for a moment in the envious eyes of other men.
Don't even think about being a guest of the curtain, it's quite good to be able to chat with you over tea and dance alone. This is the rule of Mengxian Building, all Qing girls treat guests like this, but this rule not only makes those guests dissatisfied, but has a kind of 'not getting is the best' mentality, which makes them more and more flocking, one after another.
But just chatting and dancing, I'm afraid that if I want to be accompanied by Yan'er tonight, I will have to spend tens of thousands of taels of silver!
"Nalan Night." Luo Qingluan smiled faintly, turned his head and said, "If it were you, how much would you be willing to spend?" After asking a curious word, she realized that Nalan Ye's attention was not here.
He sat intently, staring somewhere below, as if he had been watching for a long time. Under the long eyelashes, a pair of dark and deep eyes are introverted and fleeting. The upright posture at all times, and the face is like a crown of jade, so that Nalan Ye's whole person is like a snowy peak and autumn water, flowing with a distant and dusty temperament.
Luo Qingluan was a little curious, what was Nalan looking at at night?
Following the direction of his gaze, she noticed a table in the corner of the lobby on the first floor. Four gorgeously dressed men sat together, and the table was full of wine and food, but several people didn't move at all, just holding wine glasses and scanning the audience lightly.
Luo Qingluan took a few more looks, and found that these four people looked a little strange, although the guests who came to Mengxian Mansion were also quiet on the surface and had flowers in their bones, but they could tell from their eyes whether they were looking for fun.
And these people are completely different, revealing a haughty temperament, their eyes are faint, occasionally swept over Yan'er and others dancing on the stage, instead of stunning and excited eyes, they showed a trace of disdain, as if they looked down on them.
"These people...... It's a little weird. Luo Qingluan whispered, also interested.
Mengxian Lou is a green building, and she doesn't spend money to find happiness when she comes here, but she looks like she is pretending to be a scholar, how can she see that there is a problem.
Nalan Ye's eyes turned, and he had already changed his expression when he landed on Luo Qingluan. With gentle eyes and a smile on the corners of his lips, he asked, "What, Qingluan, you can see it too?" Just looking at it this way, can you guess their identity? ”
The corners of his lips raised, and Luo Qingluan said, "What, you want to test me?" ”
Just a few glances, she saw that there was something wrong with these four people, and she wanted to study it carefully, but she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to guess?
Although they were a little far away, she had already seen just now that two of the four men had slightly narrowed their eyes, and their attention was not on the song and dance on the platform, but on the surrounding movements, so the identities of these two people were about to come out, and they must be the guards or subordinates of the other two.
Among the other two men, the one with fairer skin and a blue costume with a very proud look in his eyes. Especially when I saw Yan'er and them, I pouted my lips with a look of disdain. The occasional subconscious action shows his identity - this is a woman!
It's a woman dressed as a man! And she is not from the Western Chu Kingdom, as you can see from some of her accessories and habits.
"These four people are all from Dongwan Kingdom, right?" Luo Qingluan smiled slightly, glanced at Nalan Ye, and there was a hint of pride in his fleeting eyes.
"Where did you see that?" Although Nalan Ye asked rhetorically, she bowed slightly, obviously admitting that she was right.
Although these four people all changed into the clothes of the Western Chu Kingdom, obviously to hide their identities, they did not change their shoes. You see,"
Luo Qingluan gestured: "These four people all have one thing in common, the edges of their shoes have dark lines. Well...... It's invisible, obscured by clothing, but sometimes it's revealed when they're moving. Although I don't know the special dark pattern of the shoes, I also know that this is the ancient script of Dongwan Kingdom, which is regarded as a totem by them. Except for the people of Dongwan Kingdom, no one else will wear shoes with this pattern. ”
Clapping his hands gently, Nalan Ye praised: "Not bad, there is still some eyesight." ”
As if hearing the voice here, Nangong Yu leaned over and said with interest: "Hey, Ziqing, what are you talking about?" ”
Nalan Ye smiled faintly, glanced at him, looked at the special guests at the table below, and said, "Look at those four people, do you know each other?" ”
With a move in his eyes, Nangong Yu obviously recognized it: "Actually...... They actually came to Mengxian Tower? ”
"The Parliament of the Four Nations is approaching, and His Majesty's birthday is next month, so it is not unusual for them to appear early." What Nalan Ye said was meaningful.
"Well, I'm afraid it's not just them, but people from other two countries are coming." Nangong Yu's eyes flashed with a trace of solemnity, and the previous eagerness to make money had been hidden, replaced by alertness and prudence in perceiving the impending storm.
Luo Qingluan frowned, it turned out that Nalan Ye and Nangong Yu knew these four people? I even told her to guess!
"Hey, Nalan Ye, who the hell are they?" She asked, a little dissatisfied.
Turning around, Nalan Ye looked at Luo Qingluan again, and still laughed: "Qingluan, you are so smart, even if I don't say it, can't you guess it?" ”
"Do you really want to test me? Even though I don't know them, can't I guess? ”
With a chin raised, Luo Qingluan saw that Nalan didn't say anything, but she didn't show weakness and said loudly: "Okay, then I'll guess." First of all, the person in the blue dress is actually a woman, but a woman dressed as a man, and a woman with status. I only looked at her for a moment, and she touched her face three times. Except for some women who habitually touch their long hair, but suddenly disguise themselves as men, but they can't change their long hair is already tied up, so they will have this kind of subconscious performance. Of course, this is only one aspect, the most obvious is that she does not have an Adam's apple, which is the reason I can see at a glance. ”
"As for her status, that's from the man next to her. The two men behind them, their eyes were alert and alert, looking around, this is a performance of being a personal guard, so it can be deduced from this, the other two people are the masters. ”
This girl, but she has only seen it a few times and analyzed so much, she is really smart and clever. Nalan Ye smiled: "Okay, good, it's not the wife of this king." Qingluan, if you can guess the identity of this man, then I really count you as amazing! ”
didn't get fluttered by Nalan Ye's words, Luo Qingluan tilted his head and said slyly: "I'm going to guess it, what reward do you give me?" ”
Nalan Ye smiled slightly: "What do you want?" ”
Luo Qingluan said without hesitation: "It's very simple, isn't there a place for your property on Changluo Street, which is that Bishui Village." This girl has taken a fancy to it and wants to use it for business, how about you give it to me if I guess correctly? ”
"Okay." Nalan Ye also agreed. What's hiss is hers, what's reluctant?
Satisfied eyes narrowed, and as soon as he thought that this Bishui Village would soon belong to him, Luo Qingluan immediately said: "Then I'll tell you, the man with the highest status should be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Dongwan Kingdom, Xiao Yuqi, right?" ”
Not only Nalan Ye, but even Nangong Yu, who was listening on the sidelines, was surprised: "Miss Luo...... Oh, no, no, princess, do you know Xiao Yuqi? ”
If it weren't for this, how could Luo Qingluan guess the identity of His Royal Highness Xiao Yuqi, the prince of Dongwan Kingdom? Although she saw that he was from Dongwan Kingdom, there were so many powerful people in Dongwan Kingdom, how could she guess it at once?
"What's so hard about that? Since I can see that they belong to the Dongwan Kingdom, and I know that the parliaments of the four countries are near, if the Dongwan Kingdom will send envoys, there will be only a few candidates. And the person in front of him, just looking at his age and appearance, can exclude a few, and then look at the jade wrench on the thumb in his hand, I remember, this is a symbol of the imperial power of Dongwan Kingdom, except for the emperor, only the crown prince can wear it as a status symbol when he goes to other countries. It's all so obvious, can't I still guess? ”
Speaking of this, Luo Qingluan directly pointed to the woman in blue dressed as a man below, and said: "Since Xiao Yuqi's identity has been decided, then this woman can also guess it, naturally it is Xiao Yuqi's most beloved sister, Her Royal Highness the only princess of Dongwan Kingdom, Xiao Ningyu." Is that right? ”
It seems to be a simple analysis, but it can be said so accurately, although there is a bit of luck, but if it weren't for Luo Qingluan's good observation, and knowing the national conditions of Dongwan Kingdom and the recent state affairs of Xichu, I am afraid that it would not be so easy to guess. Nangong Yu was so impressed when he heard this, he couldn't help but nod: "It's really amazing, princess, this king really admires you." I used to only think that Ziqing was so talented, but I didn't expect you to be the same, you husband and wife are really a perfect match! ”
"You just know?" Nalan Ye had a smug look in his eyes, undisguised.
Glancing at Nalan Ye, Luo Qingluan still looked down and said loudly: "Since all the people from Dongwan Kingdom are here tonight, I'm afraid that there are also people from the Southern Wei Kingdom, right?" It is said that a place like the Qinglou Casino is the most suitable for finding out the news, and it is estimated that North Vietnam, which regards Xichu as a mortal enemy, will not be able to escape. ”
The three of them glanced at each other and looked at the full hall of guests below. Tonight's Mengxian Building, where the four countries gather, is really lively.
