The capital is divided into four regions: east, west, north and south.

The east and west are all bazaars, the north is the imperial city and the mansions of high-ranking officials, and the south is mostly the houses of ordinary people.

In the past few days, Hong Aya has walked the streets and alleys, and finally got acquainted with the terrain of the capital.

The capital is indeed several times larger than Linquan County.

She remembered the day she was sent by Aunt Hong to take her to Linquan County.

At that time, she thought that Linquan County was the most lively and prosperous place in the world.

Hong Aya wandered in the capital for several days, going to the nearest restaurant to eat when she was hungry during the day, and sleeping at the nearest inn when she was tired at night.

People come and go in the capital, and no one cares about her origin.

She just walked into the restaurant inn, and the shopkeeper and the guy greeted each other with a smile.

In this place, no one accused her of being inconsiderate, and no one laughed at her for being a merchant.

Hong Aya is like a fish in water, mingling in various teahouses and restaurants, watching plays, listening to stories, and rewarding singing songs.

She clapped and laughed with others in the crowd.

Sometimes, she almost thought that she really wasn't sad at all.

But Hong Aya is most afraid that Mr. Storyteller will say, "Let's listen to the next decomposition", and the most afraid of the singing singer Yingying will bow down and turn around and step down.

She is afraid of being lonely, afraid that the song will end and everyone will be scattered.

When she was alone, she was full of Pei Zhiyang.

So, in the evening, she slipped into the wine shop in the south of the city, asked for a small plate of peanuts and a pot of wine, and listened to the drinkers talk all night.

The south of the city is mostly civilians, and rough men who move goods on the docks often gather in taverns.

They had no ill intentions, but as soon as they drank it, they shouted and boasted loudly about what they had seen.

Hong Aya listened to it occasionally and felt that it was very novel.

Tonight, they're talking about new news they've just heard from the docks.

"Today, I heard that the Hou Ning family in Pingxi has lost a lot of face, and I'm afraid I won't be able to raise my head in the future."

"I've heard about it too," a man said with a drunken hiccups, "I didn't expect that the little son of the Pei family to be kind enough to go to the Ning family to withdraw from the marriage." ”

Hong Aya's ears immediately pricked up.

There was a lot of noise in the wine shop, and the voices of those men were drowned out by the shouts of others.

She ran to another table with peanuts and sat down, forgetting to even take the flask, only to hear her own heart beating.

"Hey, that brother is a ruthless character, I heard that he proposed to withdraw from the marriage as soon as he entered, and he almost fainted Pingxihou."

"But no, he also took out a dagger and threatened the other people Ning Houye."

Hong Aya's heart chuckled, and the peanuts held in the chopsticks fell straight down.

Another man took off his cloth shoes and stepped on a stool, grabbed a few edamame, and muttered while eating: "He still has the guts to stab the Hou Ye?" ”

Pingxi Hou Ning Tiannan's title was hereditary.

But the ancestors of the Ning family all had military merits, although he had never been on the battlefield, but he also had a military position.

Others naturally thought that this Hou Ye had two strikes in his hands.

The man with the loudest voice shouted earlier: "Do you still think that weak little boy really dares to kill people? ”

"Why is he pulling a knife if he doesn't kill people?"

"Stab himself!"

Hong Aya covered her mouth and almost screamed.

The barefoot man picked his toes and snorted coldly: "These children of rich families are really full. ”

At the door, a bearded man strode in and sat down beside them.

"I think that Pei Xiaogongzi is still a man."

The other poured him a bowl of wine, shook his head, and said, "Madman, you are really a madman." What's the point of poking yourself? ”

"Count him bloody!"

The man, known as the "madman," craned his neck and drank the wine from the bowl.

The others muttered a few times, too lazy to argue with him about the topic.

Hong Aya stood up in a trance and stumbled over to their table.

She heard herself ask, "That Pei Gongzi...... How's it going? ”

"What else can people do, they are sent back to Pei's Mansion."

Someone saw her face and was a handsome girl, and couldn't help but wonder: "Huh? How did you good girls come to such a place? ”

"That's it," the man who picked his feet stopped what he was doing, rubbed his nose and said, "What are you doing at the girl's house?" ”

The madman slapped the table and said loudly, "What's wrong with the girl?" If you want to drink and brag, why are you so lenient? ”

Another said: "How can a woman drink with a man......"

"I tell you! Some women are more like men than men, they have to be responsible, and they have to be heroic and heroic. ”

Others laughed and said: "Come on, what kind of big boss you are talking about, we haven't seen each other, you can blow as much as you like." ”

The madman glared at them like a fighting and said, "Anyway, I've put my words here, and if I look down on women, I'll wait to suffer." ”

Everyone booed, but Hong Aya thought this person was very interesting.

She asked about Pei Zhiyang's situation, and the madman told Hong Aya everything he knew.

Pei Zhiyang went to Ning's house to withdraw from the marriage, but Ning Tiannan refused to give in, so he stabbed himself in the stomach.

The Ning family was frightened, and hurriedly found Lang Zhong to save people, and quickly sent him back to Pei's house.

Today, he made a fuss, and it had already spread in the capital, and they all said that Pei Xiaogongzi had a good relationship outside.

Someone interjected: "Pei Xiaogongzi's good girl must be a kiln sister." For the sake of a kiln sister, if you don't marry Miss Ning, I'm afraid you don't have a brain. ”

Hong Aya was worried and unhappy, and glared at the man.

The madman said: "Who do you care who he likes, even if it's a kiln sister, an old woman, a man, or a monkey, what's the matter?" ”

"Anyway, I think this is like a man, otherwise would he be embarrassed to let that girl have a good time with him for nothing?"

Another person was unconvinced: "If the trouble is like this, Pei Jianing's family has lost face, how good can it be?" ”

"What's wrong with losing face?" The madman said eloquently, "It's better to lose face than to lose the girl you like." ”

"Madman," said his companion teasing him, "what about your bottle girl, aren't you going to hit her with the right bottle?" ”

The madman patted his chest and said, "When I have saved up enough silver, I will give her a silver bottle." ”

Hong Aya listened blankly beside her, vaguely feeling that the "silver bottle" sounded familiar.

Pei Zhiyang......

He's such a big idiot!

Hong Aya's nose was sour, she tried her best to hold back her tears, and scolded in her heart, if he stabbed himself to death, who would compensate her for a sheep?

While she was thinking, the madman poured her a bowl of wine and said, "Little girl, don't you feel bored when you come here, and you don't drink and brag? ”

"Drink!"

She took the bowl happily, stepped on the stool, and said loudly, "Come on, come on, let's brag!" ”

Everyone was shocked, and soon someone took the lead in coaxing, cheering to invite Hong Aya to drink and chat.

The owner of the wine shop waved his hand behind the counter and said, "How many drinks have you all paid for on credit?" Where did you get such a big face to invite other girls to drink? ”

Hong Aya took off the golden hairpin stuck in her bun and slapped it on the table.

"I'm in for a treat, you guys let go of the drink!"

The madman was stunned and said, "Girl, you look like a madman than me." ”

Hong Aya drank the bad wine in the bowl in one gulp, threw the bowl aside, glared at him and said, "What's your name?" ”

"Feng Shaoyu," the man scratched the back of his head and said, "You can call me 'crazy', that's what the big boss calls me." ”

Hong Aya laughed and lowered her voice: "How much does it cost to hire you a day?" ”

This kind of person has been in the market for a long time, and naturally there is a way, and no news can be hidden from them.

She couldn't even get close to the gate of Pei's mansion.

But they are not the same.
