Chapter 43: When the Emperor Listens to the Root of the Wall
Fortunately, the hard work was not in vain.
On the way back to the Cui Pavilion, Yueniang looked at Lu Xingwan who was in the carriage with her, at this time she had long lost half of her edge on the stage, and she was completely like a different person, quietly and silently.
That day, she stood on the second floor and said to herself that she wanted to change places and go directly to Wanhualou to ask for an explanation, Yueniang was glad that she was persuaded by Lu Xingwan at the beginning.
If there were more worries at the beginning, then today's big victory would not exist, and Yicui Pavilion would still be crushed by Wanhualou.
……
That night, many people followed Yueniang's carriage and went to Yicui Pavilion, even if Lu Xingwan did not show up again, but based on the shock just brought to them, it did not cause everyone's dissatisfaction.
In the next few days, the duel between Yicui Pavilion and Wanhualou has become a topic of conversation among the people of the Imperial City after tea and dinner, and even the women and children who avoid Qinglou like snakes and scorpions have also discussed, which shows how lively things are.
After this incident, Yicui Pavilion became completely popular again, and Wanhualou was visibly deserted to the naked eye. Those who consider themselves upper-class people pay the most attention to reputation, and where are they willing to go to Wanhualou, which is considered vulgar, to lower their prices.
Of course, all this is an afterthought, time will give them the best choice time, and when it is actually mature, everything will be logical.
Where there are people, there is gossip, and this has always been the case.
Just like this big bustle, after several days of chatter from the people of the imperial city, this gossip news finally spread and spread into the palace wall...
At the beginning, it was the eunuch who was in charge of purchasing, and he could hear someone discussing it several times out of the palace, but he didn't listen to it completely and sincerely, and asked the buyer and seller who handed over to him.
This is also human nature, and the people in the palace are no exception.
It's just that the people in the palace are relatively closed, and the errand people are cautious and worried that one will accidentally lose his head, and the masters in the palace generally don't dare to talk about it at will, so even if they have a heart to watch the excitement, there is not much excitement in the palace for them to watch.
Now it's different, the Qinglou people naturally have a degree of topicality, and the things outside the palace make them have no scruples, so it has once again triggered a discussion boom in the palace.
…
"Have you heard? There was a new Oiran outside the palace, and the people of the entire imperial city went crazy. ”
"I've also heard that this girl is more beautiful than a fairy, and her talent is unparalleled, and the adults in the court have squeezed their heads to send money."
"Really? When the lord of the dynasty has never seen anyone, he can be fascinated by her, how beautiful is that? ”
"Mr. Hu, who is in charge of purchasing, has seen it personally!"
……
In the corner of Miyagi, several little eunuchs were chatting together, and they didn't notice that on the wall of the corridor on one side, there were two figures standing there quietly since they started chatting, listening to the content of the chat.
This person listening to the corner of the wall is none other than the main owner of the palace, the emperor who has been idle and crazy recently-Su Xuanli.
The last time he sneaked out of the palace and was found and reprimanded by the imperial brother, fortunately, he assured him that King Kang would take action recently, which made him stay in the palace honestly, but he didn't expect that more than half a month would pass again, and there was no wind at all!
Ouch, I'm so angry with him! It's so lonely when no one usurps the throne!
Su Xuanli has nothing to do in the palace, and when he is really bored, he likes to go to all corners of the palace to listen to the corners and eavesdrop on the gossip of the palace maids and eunuchs.
