If it was in the past, the old bustard might have comforted the guests for fear of offending them, but today, the old bustard didn't have time to deal with the stinky men who were shouting and sighing underground, seeing that the officers and soldiers were coming, she was full of hope that the two living ancestors on the stage could escape the search of the officers and soldiers.

After Cheng Xi and Cheng Xin came to the stage, the guests below who were already dissatisfied began to shout again, "Why are you still covering your face?" ”

"It's not going to be two ugly girls who don't see people, right?"

"Hurry up and take a look, Lao Tzu wants to see what this musician from the Liao Kingdom looks like."

Cheng Xi and Cheng Xin frowned slightly when they heard this, but the two quickly calmed down, Cheng Xin set up the guqin at the table before he passed, and Cheng Xi stood next to Cheng Xin, took the bamboo flute, put it to his mouth, closed his eyes slightly, blocked the shouting downstairs, and began to play.

Cheng Xin heard Cheng Xi's flute and remembered, and soon plucked the strings and the flute played by Cheng Xi, an impassioned melody instantly attracted everyone's attention, and those who were clamoring were also attracted by this unheard melody, and they only felt that listening to this song really made people's blood boil and their thoughts surged.

Only this atmosphere did not last long, and the melody was reaching the agitation place, when a large number of officers and soldiers suddenly poured in at the gate of the brothel, and the brothel became panicked and commotion for a while, and the sound of the flute and piano also stopped abruptly.

The old bustard took a deep breath, stabilized her mind, and hurriedly greeted her and said with a smile, "Ladies and gentlemen, what is this?" ”

The leading officer and soldier shouted loudly, "Stay where you are, don't move, and routinely search for fugitives." ”

The officers and soldiers shouted, and sure enough, everyone in the hall was panicked and no longer planned to leave while the chaos, and obediently sat in their own positions, or stood in their own positions.

Of course, there will always be some identity people in this brothel, just like now, a voice suddenly came from the third floor, "I said the sea, what kind of fugitives are you searching for in the middle of the night?" Still searching here? ”

This person seems to be a little higher than the identity of the officers and soldiers searching below, and he spoke with a questioning tone, but this sea is neither humble nor arrogant and responds, "My lord, I'm sorry, the people above ordered to come down and arrest the important prisoners of the imperial court. ”

As soon as the leading officer and soldier named Dahai finished speaking, the people on the third floor no longer stopped him, but answered, "Then you have to search carefully, and you continue to do your work." ”

With a wave of his hand, the sea said to the officers and soldiers behind him, "Search carefully." ”

The officers and soldiers rushed up and began to investigate one by one, and many of them had portraits in their hands, and focused on the young women.

After Cheng Xin on the stage saw it, he approached Cheng Xi and asked in a worried whisper, "What should I do?" If they investigate like this, they will definitely find us. ”

Cheng Xi responded, "It's okay, the way we are now, they can't recognize them with the portraits, and besides, we are now Liao national musicians." ”

Cheng Xin nodded, took a deep breath, stabilized his emotions, and waited for the officers and soldiers to find them.

Only the officers and soldiers had not found them, but the leading officer and soldier called the sea below saw them first, and with a few officers and soldiers, they walked towards the grandstand over there.

The old bustard saw that the leading officer and soldier were actually heading towards the two people on the stage, and he was scared to go over with a smile, and he was afraid that he still had to laugh and say, "Two adults, these two people are musicians we just invited from Liao. ”

Cheng Xi looked at the old bustard's behavior, frowned slightly, and said in his heart, this old bustard can't be stable, this kind of practice is simply three hundred taels of silver here, forcing the leading officers and soldiers to doubt their identity?

Sure enough, as Cheng Xi expected, the sea looked at them with slightly squinted eyes, waved his hand, and the officers and soldiers behind him rushed up towards the stands on Cheng Xi's side.

Cheng Xi hurriedly grabbed Cheng Xin's hand on the side and whispered, "Hold on, we are Liao national musicians, they can't recognize us." ”

Fortunately, Cheng Xi wore a veil on her face, so people would not find out that she was talking.

Cheng Xin, who was originally flustered, also quickly stabilized his mind, and silently recited what Cheng Xi said in his heart, "I am a ...... musician of Liaoguo."

When those officers and soldiers came over, they directly put the knife on the necks of Cheng Xin and Cheng Xi, Cheng Xi and Cheng Xin didn't panic, but the old bustard panicked first, "My lord, this is what I did this, this is the Liao National musician I spent a lot of money to invite, and it is definitely not a court criminal." ”

Cheng Xi was secretly speechless in his heart, but the sea looked at the old bustard coldly, and said, "Did I say that they are the prisoners of the imperial court?" ”

The old bustard finally knew that he had done something stupid, so he obediently closed his mouth, and only prayed in his heart that the two ancestors could escape this catastrophe, if they couldn't escape, their own lives would be ruined.

The leader of the sea came to Cheng Xi and Cheng Xin, stared at the two of them and said, "Why do you wear a veil?" ”

On the side, Cheng Xi squeezed Cheng Xin's hand, and said with a trembling voice a little trembling, "This, this is a brothel, although our sisters come to the brothel to perform, but they don't want to do anything, my sister has an outstanding appearance, and she is worried that someone will covet it, so she has always worn a veil." ”

Cheng Xi replied like this, half of it was pretending, and half of it was really scared, she felt that her legs were a little weak, and she worked hard to stand up straight.

The sea stared at Cheng Xi tightly and said, "Lift the veil." ”

Cheng Xi knew that this veil was to be lifted no matter what, and he said that he and Cheng Xin were like this, they should not recognize it, so he no longer hesitated, reached out to uncover the veil, and saw that Cheng Xin on the side had not moved, Cheng Xi took Cheng Xin's hand and pinched it with you, and Cheng Xin reached out and removed the veil on his face.

Seeing the true faces of the two, the leader of the sea was slightly stunned, but he quickly recovered, and took the portrait from the hand of the subordinate who was looking at Cheng Xin stunned from the side, and observed it carefully against Cheng Xi and Cheng Xin.

In such a comparison, Cheng Xi was also a little panicked in his heart, he just hoped that the sea would not find any clues, the hands held by Cheng Xi and Cheng Xin were already wet, and they didn't know whose palms were sweating.

The sea observed very carefully, Cheng Xi and Cheng Xin were even more worried, at this moment, an officer and soldier suddenly came into the hall, and said loudly, "My lord, I found the traces of that powerful guard on the opposite street corner, and drove a carriage to the gate of Dongcheng." ”

When the leader heard this, he instantly threw the portrait in his hand into the arms of his subordinates on the side, and said loudly, "Everyone obeys the order and rushes to the east gate with all your might." ”

As he spoke, he turned around and went to the first floor, forgetting to continue to check Cheng Xi and Cheng Xin, the knife on his neck was finally removed, and the officers and soldiers who had just poured into the brothel like a tide receded like a tide.

Seeing that all the officers and soldiers had left, Cheng Xin and Cheng Xi breathed a sigh of relief, and the old bustard on the side also breathed a sigh of relief, and walked over quickly and said to the two, "You go back to the backyard quickly, while these guests are not in trouble." ”

This old bustard knows the virtues of these people, and there is a knife on her head, seeing Cheng Xin's appearance, I am afraid that many people will covet it, and she doesn't want to make any more extraneous branches.

Cheng Xi nodded to Cheng Xin, Cheng Xi hurriedly stretched out his hand to put the veil on for Cheng Xin, and then followed the little girl who wanted to learn art from them to the original backyard.

At this time, most of the people in the brothel were still in the panic just now and did not come back to their senses, but they did not notice that the two Liao national musicians had taken the opportunity to leave.

But the old bustard stayed here, greeted and comforted the guests, and then let the brothel dancer go to the stage and dance a seductive dance, and the brothel soon returned to the previous lively scene, and gradually forgot about the arrest of the court prisoner just now.

As soon as the two of them returned to the backyard, they saw that there was a person waiting for them at the door, Cheng Xin saw Ah Yi, and asked excitedly, "Are you okay?" ”

Seeing Cheng Xin being so anxious about herself, Ah Yi smiled and responded, "I'm fine." ”

The little maid remembered the instructions of the old bustard, sent the person to the small courtyard, glanced at Ah Yi suspiciously, and ran away again, going to find the old bustard.

Cheng Xin was still doing a lot of Ah Yi as he said, but Cheng Xi looked at Ah Yi and asked, "What's going on with the carriage?" ”

Ah Yi responded, "That portrait is a little strange, worried that you will be discovered, so Ah Wu drove the carriage away to lead these officers and soldiers, rest assured, with Ah Wu's skills, he can definitely get out easily, just let him rush out of the city with the carriage, let these officers and soldiers turn their attention to him, we can be safe for the time being." ”

Cheng Xi frowned slightly and said, "It's all this time, the city gate must be closed, how can you still rush out with a carriage?" ”

Ah Yi responded, "Madame, don't worry, we have already arranged it, their forces have been used to search the city, the city gate is weakly guarded, I am afraid that we will rush out of the city, it just so happens that the guards at the east city gate are the weakest, I went over with Ah Wu, and used some means, Ah Wu can safely carry the carriage out of the city, even if he can't, he can get out of it alone." ”

Cheng Xi said, "Then since we can get out of the city, why don't we escape out of the city together?" ”

Ah Yi shook his head, "Ah Wu can do it alone, but he can't take you with him, and besides, we can't take you to risk it." ”

Cheng Xi knew that Ah Yi was thoughtful, and he was a little relieved, and only asked, "Then what should we do now?" ”

Ah Yi responded, "Don't do anything, stay in this brothel with peace of mind, and wait for news from Ah Wu." ”

Cheng Xi sighed, nodded, and responded, "Okay." ”

A few people went back to the small building, with Ah Yi here, Cheng Xi and Cheng Xin's hearts were also a lot more stable, and it was not early, the two of them hastily cleaned up and found a room in the small building to live.

Just experienced a bunch of messy things, and the two of them still had some palpitations in their hearts, so the two lived in a room, and Ah Yi lived next door to the two of them, in case something unexpected happened, so as to protect them in time.
