He glanced at Su Xinyan, and stopped talking, "Xiao Su, you ......"

The air was a little condensed, and Gu Fengjin was silent for a long time, but he didn't say what he said.

Su Xinyan clenched the hand hanging on one side, and her heart was pounding, she always felt that what His Highness didn't say was about herself.

"Let's go." Gu Fengjin lowered her eyes, pushed away her hand and walked back first.

Because of this little episode, the two did not say much on the way back.

Su Xinyan noticed the prince's abnormality, and summoned the eunuch Xiao Zhuo as soon as he returned to the house.

Listening to her inquiry, Xiao Zhuo was also surprised, "Father-in-law Su, don't you know?" Today is the death day of Her Royal Highness's biological mother. ”

"The death day of the deceased queen?"

Su Xinyan was stunned on the spot, no wonder the prince was so strange today, it turned out that it was because of the queen.

Xiao Zhuo nodded, frowned and thought deeply, "If it is as my father-in-law said, the prince went to Zhaoze Lake, then it would be better explained." ”

Su Xinyan said: "What do you say? ”

Xiao Zhuo said: "The queen liked the pipa before her death, and she often went to the lake pavilion of Zhaoze Lake to play before entering the palace, so her Royal Highness should go to Zhaoze Lake to commemorate the deceased queen." ”

Su Xinyan nodded, thinking of the prince's previous expression, she couldn't help but feel stunned.

She lowered her head and pondered for a long time, then suddenly stood up and ran towards the prince's bedroom.

Xiao Zhuo was slightly stunned, and just after chasing two steps, he heard Su Xinyan's command, and hurriedly responded and turned around and went to the kitchen.

Su Xinyan trotted all the way to the door of the dormitory, and when he put his hands on the doors and windows, his breath was still a little panting.

"Your Highness, have you slept?"

She whispered cautiously.

"Come in." A cold voice came from inside, and there seemed to be no sleepiness in the slightest.

Su Xinyan responded, pushed the door and walked in.

Gu Fengjin was sitting at the table in profane clothes at this time, and when she saw Su Xinyan coming in, she put down the book in her hand and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Hmm...... Your Highness hasn't slept yet, has he? Su Xinyan picked up the door frame and asked with a slightly red face.

Gu Fengjin didn't speak, just looked at her quietly.

Seeing this, Su Xinyan was sure in his heart, and said calmly, "The servant guessed that His Highness should not have eaten yet, so he asked people to prepare some food." ”

As soon as her words fell, a group of maids saluted and entered the house, still holding a few plates of snacks in their hands.

"It's all soft and easy to digest, Your Highness can eat it."

Su Xinyan walked to the table, waved those people away, and waited until the room was quiet before putting a piece of red bean cake on a small plate and putting it in front of Gu Fengjin.

Seeing the dim sum in front of him, Gu Fengjin's eyes flashed, and then he picked up the chopsticks.

Seeing this, Su Xinyan's heart was relieved, and he said as if he had no intention.

"This red bean cake was the slave's favorite when he was a child, but at that time, because of his poor family background, he couldn't eat it if he wanted to, and when he grew up, he would eat a few pieces every time he was unhappy, so that his mood would be much better."

Gu Fengjin nodded, took a bite of the red bean cake and said, "It seems that Xiao Su had a very interesting childhood, so let's tell the hall about your childhood." ”

"When I was a child?" Su Xinyan was stunned for a moment, muttered to himself, and his thoughts gradually drifted away.

Her childhood wasn't really much better.

She lived in an orphanage since she was a child, and there were many children in it and few nurses, coupled with the poor economic conditions at that time, the situation that the children did not have enough to eat in it often happened, and she was no exception, and even often woke up hungry at night.

Once, during the festival, volunteers sent a lot of food and items, including a lot of sweets, and it was the first time she ate red bean cakes, and the sweet and glutinous taste was very delicious. However, because there were many children in the hospital, the dean still limited the amount of food per person.

That night, Su Xinyan didn't eat enough, and when he was really hungry at night, he sneaked into the kitchen and stole food for the first time.

The shame of stealing something made her heart beat wildly, but looking at the pastry in her hand, she forced herself to suppress this idea and ran out of the door, running to hide in the back of the orphanage.

The area behind the mountain is vast, and when she stopped panting, all she saw was an unfamiliar environment, and even the surrounding trees looked extremely gloomy under the night.

Su Xinyan hugged the red bean cake in his arms tightly, and looked at the round of lonely moon hanging in the sky and was afraid. At this time, she was the only one in the huge back mountain, and it seemed that a fierce beast would jump out at any time in the shadows.

She hugged herself and buried her head in the palm of her hand, not looking or listening, as if she could forget her fears.

has always been like this, she has been the only one since she was a child, and she can only rely on herself whether she is sad or afraid......

"Xiao Su?" Gu Fengjin called her softly, pulling her back from her thoughts.

"Your Highness." Su Xinyan turned his head and looked at him for a while before he smiled, "The slave didn't have much to say when he was a child, it was the same as other children, so don't mention it." ”

Gu Fengjin nodded, and didn't ask any more.

This night, the two chatted casually, talking about interesting things that had happened recently, and they had a very happy conversation.

After a long night, Su Xinyan almost forgot when she went back to the courtyard, but this time she slept on the bed.

After falling asleep, she had a long dream, in which she turned back into her little self, and returned to the back mountain of the orphanage, and she was still alone in the huge world, she stood for a long time, sitting in the grass a little depressed, looking up at the moon in the sky in a daze.

It's still her!

"Little Su ......"

Suddenly, a voice rang out.

Su Xinyan turned his head and saw the handsome and extraordinary face of His Royal Highness the Prince.

His Highness stood tall and stood quietly behind her, as if her protector had been behind her.

Perhaps, something will be different after all......

The next day, Su Xinyan, who had been disturbed by dreams all night, woke up in a daze.

Thinking of the dream just now, Su Xinyan yawned, and the mood that had been suppressed before suddenly became brighter.

When she saw the jar standing at the head of the bed, she stretched out her hand and shook it very badly, and shouted loudly inside, "Fox, get up!" ”

The furry fox poked its head out and looked at her wordlessly with a pair of eyes.

Su Xinyan laughed twice, and then walked out of the room in a good mood.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped out of the door, he heard a commotion in the courtyard, Su Xinyan looked up, and just saw Zhang Yunhao, who was pale, stumbling all the way.

As soon as Zhang Yunhao arrived, he knelt straight in front of Su Xinyan, and said in a sad voice, "Please ask my father-in-law to save my sister!" If it's too late, she'll be ruined! ”

Su Xinyan took a step back in shock, but he still didn't avoid the other party's hands.

Zhang Yunhao grabbed the hem of her clothes, looking a little desperate, as if he had grasped the last straw.

Su Xinyan frowned and said in a deep voice, "What's going on, you tell me slowly." ”

The other party spoke incoherently for a long time, but still didn't explain the matter, obviously in a very anxious state.

Su Xinyan listened patiently for a long time before he became familiar with the whole incident from his words.

It turned out that although the government had already issued the documents of exile, it had not yet decided on an official date. On this day, he went to visit his mother in prison, thinking that he could also inquire about the news, but he was surprised to learn that his sister was separated and locked up in other prisons.

Zhang Yunhao knew that the situation was wrong, and after finding the prison guard, he learned that his sister had already been taken away by a group of people.

He searched for many days but did not find his sister, but when he was disheartened, he heard that a group of newcomers came to Guanchun Building, and they were going to open their buds to pick up guests tonight.

Zhang Yunhao was shaken, and used the only remaining silver taels to mix into the Qing/Lou, and only then did he find out the whereabouts of his missing sister. It's in the middle of that group of newcomers!

He is now desperate, so he can only come to Su Xinyan.

Before Su Xinyan could speak, Wuxiang next door pushed the door out.

"The Qing/Lou you are talking about is the Guanchun Building?"

Zhang Yunhao nodded hurriedly.

Su Xinyan looked up at Wuxiang and smiled helplessly, "It seems that our plan to go to Guanchun Tower is going to be advanced." ”

Wuxiang nodded, turned his head and asked a few more words before going back to the house to prepare.

Zhang Yunhao learned that Su Xinyan would help him, so he hurriedly kowtowed to thank him, his forehead was broken Su Xinyan hurriedly stopped him, and gave a few more commands before going back to the house and changing into men's clothes.

Everything was ready, and a few people left the prince's mansion and went straight to Guanchun Tower.

There are many large and small green/buildings in the capital, but the most prosperous is the Guanchun Building, the girls in it are not only numerous, but also beautiful as flowers, which is very good for the taste of today's noble sons.

Su Xinyan was dressed in a gorgeous brocade robe, shaking a folding fan and standing at the door of Guanchun Tower.

She glanced around at this gold cave, and sighed that a green/building has such a grand scale, and the consumption power of this ancient person is really strong.

Wuxiang listened to her words, hooked his lips and smiled sarcastically, "This Guanchun Building is not simple, not only involves the affairs of the Gao family, but also carries out the dirty business of human trafficking. ”

Su Xinyan frowned, and then looked at the splendid Guanchun Tower in front of him, and his face changed.

At this time, the girl who was standing at the door and was soliciting saw several of them, and hurriedly walked over, showing them the way and greeting them diligently.

Su Xinyan smiled on his face, opened the folding fan with a brush, picked up the shelf and walked into the building.

The decoration furnishings inside the building are more than the outside of the building, the hall with bright candles, the carved exquisite window lattice, the picturesque woman with eyebrows, this beautiful scenery here, is worthy of the title of the first floor of the capital of the spring building.

Su Xinyan walked through the lobby and passed by those richly dressed sons, and couldn't help but admire in his heart.

Sure enough, it is a veritable gold cave.

The girl who led the way was a beauty wearing purple flowers, the beauty had vicious eyes, and she knew that she was a big money owner when she looked at the clothes of Su Xinyan and her party, and immediately laughed: "I don't know this little boy's surname, Xiao Tao, I am in this green / building, but it is the first time I have seen such a handsome and noble little boy." ”

The corners of Su Xinyan's mouth were slightly hooked, the folding fan was half-opened and closed to cover his lips, and the eyes that emerged from the fan were looking at the beauty with a smile on his face.

The little peach girl's face was slightly red, and the tips of her heart trembled by those eyes.

Su Xinyan's face was already very good, at this time, he was dressed in a luxurious dress, his posture was chic and generous, and he was a proper rich boy.

The little peach girl wanted to spend more time with Su Xinyan, so she tried her best to talk about Guanchun Building, and talked about the fun in it.

Su Xinyan listened politely, although there was impatience in his heart, he didn't show it on his face.

Xiao Tao has read countless people, and when she saw this, she already knew the impatience of the guests, so she could only say with some reluctance, "Are the guests going to the second floor now?" Why don't you stay in the lobby and walk around? There is just a lot of fun in the lobby tonight, and the slave family can also introduce you to more beauties. ”

Su Xinyan became interested when she heard it, "Oh? What a fun fun. ”

Xiao Tao's eyes lit up, and she immediately said, "It's a coincidence that the guests came, a new batch of girls came to the building, of high quality, all of them are beautiful and delicate, and the most important thing is ......" She smiled meaningfully and said in a low voice, "It's still a place!" ”

Su Xinyan looked at her, smiled tacitly, took out a golden bean from her purse, shook it in front of Xiao Tao's eyes, and said, "Then I will bother my sister to take me to see the world." ”

"Good! Good! Definitely Bao Jun is satisfied! Xiao Tao was ecstatic, and hurriedly accepted the golden bean and led them into the lobby.

There is a high platform in the middle of the lobby, and there are pink veils floating around the high platform, which looks mysterious and dreamy. A foot away from the high platform, there are solid wood tables and chairs, which are neatly arranged.

Su Xinyan picked a random place and sat down directly.

At this time, Zhang Yunhao, who was following behind her, was staring at the high platform with an anxious expression.

Su Xinyan coughed and softly comforted him before turning his head to look at Wuxiang.

"Xiao Tao said that this time the fun is the bidding meeting, what do you say they will bid for in addition to the girl's first time?"

Wuxiang glanced at her, pushed away the folding fan between the two of them, and said, "It seems that Gonggong Su has studied this very much." ”

Su Xinyan paused, and only after a while did he say modestly, "Lord Wuxiang has won the award, and I have just seen too much, and I am just pretending." ”

The corners of Wuxiang's mouth hooked, and then she answered her previous question, "In a place like this, it is normal to have some underground transactions. Besides, this is the place under the jurisdiction of the three princes, and it is also a matter of raising hands to secretly collect some official information and use it when necessary. ”

Su Xinyan sighed twice after hearing this, and felt that there was nothing new, sure enough, all the entertainment venues in ancient times would fall victim to the royal family.

Su Xinyan, who felt bored, stopped talking, flipped through the bidding table on the table casually, and saw the content of the last item "Oiran Beginning/Night", she couldn't help but shake her head and said, "It turns out that this is also done here." ”

After hearing this, he sneered, "It's just a gimmick." ”

While the two were talking, the guests were seated one after another, and compared with before, it was now full.

After a while, the auction began.

At the beginning, they were all treasures of excellent condition, although the materials and workmanship were extremely exquisite, but those were not serious things, they were all things used in some room operations.

Su Xinyan was not interested after seeing a few things, so she sat on the seat and fanned her fan a little boringly.

At this moment, there was a sudden agitation in the crowd, and it turned out that more than a dozen girls were rushing into the stage, all of them wearing a layer of pink tulle standing on the stage, looking like they could be chosen.

Su Xinyan also put away the fan and sat up.

She tilted her head and asked softly, "Is there someone you're looking for?" ”

"Yes!" Zhang Yunhao took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and looked at the woman in the corner of the last row, almost biting a mouthful of silver teeth, it was his own sister, but now she was judged like a commodity.

Su Xinyan breathed a sigh of relief, it would be easy to find someone.

At this time, the mother of Guanchun Lou came out, stood under the stage and said, "Welcome to the door, this is a new batch of girls in the building, you have a fancy to you, don't be polite, you want to pick which, whether it is to buy back or in this building, Mom, I am here to call the shots, I wish you all fun." ”

The crowd burst into laughter, and the sound of laughter was endless.

It didn't take long for that group of girls to be auctioned like objects, and the starting price was very high, starting at two hundred taels for each girl.

Su Xinyan frowned, and pointed to the little peach next to him, "If I want to buy a girl to go back, what should I do?" ”

Xiao Tao smiled and said with deep meaning in her eyes, "If you want to buy one, you have to talk to the mother in the building, but this silver is not a matter of a few hundred taels." ”

Su Xinyan pursed her lips and sighed at the black heart of her mother in the building.

Obviously, these girls were snatched from Guanchun Building, and they didn't spend a penny, but at this time, they turned out to be empty gloves and white wolves, which was simply a robber act.

But there is no way, this is the sphere of influence of the third prince, and she can only follow the rules here.

She pointed out the girl she wanted to buy to Xiao Tao, and asked Xiao Tao to report to her mother in the building, so she was relieved to continue watching the play.

At this moment, the auction was already Zhang Yunhao's sister's turn.

His sister is beautiful, and she has a beautiful temperament, which is very eye-catching in the crowd. Fortunately, there were also a few people with her who started filming together, and they were all beautiful women, and the proportions of several people didn't make her seem so abrupt.

Seeing this, Su Xinyan immediately relieved herself, after all, if the girl in the building was too popular, her mother should not let go.

It's a pity that the world is unpredictable, and there are still variables halfway.
