Chapter 17: The Resentment of the Hairpin (Part II)

Ma Xiangfang didn't have a wife, he took the remaining materials after making the hairpin and made a jade pendant, hung the tassels, and carefully picked out his newly carved sandalwood box, and swayed into the fireworks willow lane. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

There is a building called Drunken Red Silk in Fireworks Willow Lane, there is a girl named Qin Nian on the drunken Red Silk, Qin Nian was sent here as a prostitute since he was a child, practicing the piano since he was a child, a pair of hands are soft as boneless, and the piano can play the sound of heaven and man, plus the Rong Zi is very good, but he is only fifteen or sixteen years old, but he has already fallen into the country and the city, and has become the head card of Drunken Red Silk, the cash cow of Fireworks Willow Lane.

Ma Xiangfang likes her very much, and often secretly covers his face and sits in the corner here after receiving the money, watching her play the piano for a day, but no matter how infatuated he is, it is always someone else who finally enters the room and closes the door with the beautiful woman's slender waist, the reason is very simple, Qin Nian doesn't like Ma Xiangfang, she is a girl from the Qinglou, the girls from the Qinglou have never talked about feelings, they only care about what the complement on your clothes is drawing, and how much silver is in the money bag on your waist.

This kind of place in the capital is naturally different, there are a lot of people who are bigger than Ma Xiangfang Guan'er, and there are more people who are richer than him, like ants, and they take turns to get drunk red silk, Ma Xiangfang wants to get Qin Nian more every day, he feels that such a girl must love the literati.

Half a month ago, he finally finished painting a picture of a beautiful woman touching the piano and sent it to Qin Nian, on the flower platform, Qin Nian smiled very happily, and the sweetness overflowed with honey, and he improvised another song at the moment, and the hall applauded.

Ma Xiangfang was happy, he was very proud, his beloved recognized his talent, and he walked with the wind.

So that night, he went upstairs with a belly of affection to find Qin Nian, but was stopped, because the person who carried Qin Nian into the room was the second son of the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi.

Ma Xiangfang was not convinced, how is such a greasy guy with a greasy face better than him?

The next day, the drunken red silk proprietress happily waved the handkerchief and accepted the silver he rewarded, but with a bitter face told him that Qin Nian's girl was wrapped up by the son of the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, and she went to play together, and she didn't see any guests for the time being, Ma Xiangfang was stunned at the door of the drunken red silk for a long time before going out in a daze, that's it, the son of the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, the waste who relied on his father to support him, Qin Nian must be unwilling in his heart, he thought.

When passing by the street corner, I saw a little Gui Gong with braids and gold locks holding a scroll of paintings and calling on the side of the road, "Qin Nian girl painted by the painter of Ruyi Fang~ Who wants to collect it quickly~, Qin Nian's personal appreciation~, absolutely genuine!" ”

Ma Xiangfang stopped, looked at the little Gui Gong coldly, the street was full of people, but no one came up to ask for a long time, the little Gui Gong waited for a long time, and finally got impatient, frowned and scolded a series of swear words and threw the painting into the dung heap on the side, and did not forget to mutter and kick it, "I thought I could buy two buns, I'm sorry." ”

Ma Xiangfang turned around angrily and walked out of Fireworks Willow Lane, looked at the clear sky, and suddenly smiled, yes, he obviously still likes Qin Nian.

So today, he took this precious gift and wanted to kiss Fang Ze, fortunately, Qin Nian was a knowledgeable person, seeing that the autumn water in Yu Pei's eyes was flooded with a few waves, he hugged the sandalwood box and followed Ma Xiangfang into the red tent, the warm nephrite was in his arms, the grapes and wine were intoxicating, Ma Xiangfang stroked Qin Nian's slippery and greasy shoulders, heh, it was really drunk red silk.

Qin Nianjiao smiled, "This master is really good, he can get such a good thing." ”

The wine in Ma Xiangfang's hand didn't stop, and he said with a red face, "This is my master who has the ability to get it, do you think... Who can wear this jade pendant? Well? ”

Qin Nian giggled again, "That's nature, what kind of person is you, the genius of the Ruyi Pavilion, that's a person like Lang Shining." ”

Ma Xiangfang opened his drunken eyes and looked at the sandalwood box, but did not say a word.

On the second day, when Gong Zhongzhong was dying violently, Ma Xiang Fangzheng and Feng Min of the Calligraphy and Painting Pavilion drank together, Qin Nian benefited himself, playing the piano, and from time to time an eye wave came over, and saw Feng Min's beard trembling at his age, and he was not addicted to drinking three glasses of wine in a row.

Ma Xiangfang smiled and filled him up, "My master used to say that this Qin Nianmei is like a fairy in a painting, Lord Feng, how do you look at it?" ”

Feng Min was originally a pervert, or a pervert who was a sworn opponent of Zhao Xiu, this sworn enemy also coincidentally, he was most unaccustomed to Zhao Xiu's appearance of a literati putting on a shelf, and both of them were working in one place, in order to compete for the fat difference of the procurement office, they had been tired of looking at each other openly and secretly for a long time, and when they heard this at this moment, their eyes immediately lit up, pointing at Qin Nian, bending his thumb, and making a gesture with obvious meaning, "They? Well? ”

Ma Xiangfang nodded noncommittally, "Later, he also said that this girl is worthy of the best in the world, let me try it too, but how can I compare to Master Feng's talent, and I am quite favored by the emperor, how can I have this money?" Are you right? ”

Feng Min likes people to slap horses, and at this moment he drank wine, and when he heard this, he flew into the sky, "Hey, hey, I love to listen to what your kid said, eh, then you later..."

Ma Xiangfang said, "Of course, my master was drunk that day and rewarded me with a fast jade pendant, and wrapped it in a good black sandalwood box, let me send it over, and then the Qin Nian girl ......."

"Stop, stop, stop!" Feng Min frowned and said in a daze, "You say it again, what ebony?" What jade pendant? ”

Ma Xiangfang was stunned by his shouting, and hurriedly said, "What's wrong?" ”

Feng Min touched his beard, although he was obsessed, but he was not old and confused, Zhao Xiu and his rival for many years, he has been suffering from not having a handle to deal with, most of the things sent to the Ruyi Pavilion in the Forbidden City are recorded, although there are often some things that steal chickens and dogs, but there are only some less scraps, leftovers, and they will pass with one eye open and one eye closed, but in the batch of the recent feast, there is a sandalwood box and a large piece of jade material missing, and he is worried, which is sent to the door by himself.

It's just that this Ma Xiangfang is an enemy or a friend and has not yet made up his mind, Feng Min's eyes flashed, he glanced at Qin Nian on the stage, touched his chin and smiled, "Nothing, nothing, go on, how is this girl?" ”

That night, Feng Min spent a lot of money to buy Qin Nian for a night, and knocked on the side with his arms around the beauty, "What did Ma Xiangfang's kid give you yesterday?" Take it out and show it to you, and you will send you a better one. ”

Qin Nian sneered while taking out the dressing box, "I was angry when I mentioned this, that person was very stingy, and he began to send a broken painting of four different paintings, and he was expecting to climb on my flower bed, but later he learned to be smart and gave him a piece of jade pendant, but he actually told me that it was his master who rewarded him, you said that this person, how can he compare to your ability Master Feng." ”

Feng Min was very useful, took the box and looked at it twice, he frowned when his fingers touched the bottom, turned it over and looked at it, but he was so frightened that his soul flew away, and he rolled from the bed to the ground without tying his clothes, and the jade pendant and the box "clang" and scattered on the ground.

Qin Nian let out a scream, Feng Min held his breath and trembled and pointed at her for a long time, and finally snatched the door away, Qin Nian looked at the box and jade pendant on the ground for some reason, there were no evil ghosts or demons on the back of the box, just a fine five-clawed dragon Tengyun.

Feng Min didn't delay any longer, wiped two handfuls of sweat to calm down, looked at Qin Nian, and immediately went to the Ministry of Rites, he originally thought that this Zhao Xiu was just a greedy man, and wanted to use this to join him, but when did this guy have the idea of arrogance, and he dared to use the five-clawed dragon? Also sent a prostitute from Fireworks Willow Lane?

After presenting the fold, Feng Min walked outside the Forbidden City, looking at the morning mist and squinting, but it was okay, it happened that pie fell from the sky and paved a bright avenue for him.

In the spring of the sixth year of Xianfeng, Zhao Xiu, the carver of the Ruyi Pavilion, was beheaded for the private use of the treasures in the palace and the five-clawed dragon carved by the arrogant, and the drunken red prostitute Qin Nian was given to death.

Zhou Mushu felt a chill behind his back when he heard this, "There are actually three dead people behind this." ”

"It's five people, and there are a total of five people who were killed by that jade." Lu Yuanyan shook his head and stretched out a hand, "There is also an innocent little palace maid, guess who is the remaining one?" ”

Zhou Mushu raised his eyes, "Ma Xiangfang." ”

"Tsk tsk smart!" Lu Yuanyan said, "Tell me how you came up with it?" ”

Zhou Mushu said in a deep voice, "There are too many flaws, for example, how could Zhao Xiu be stupid enough to give something engraved with a royal pattern to an apprentice who he is not used to, the spring of the sixth year of Xianfeng is the spring of 1856, and it happens to be the Xilin Teaching Plan The foreigners are in turmoil, the year when the war started, Emperor Xianfeng did not investigate it carefully, but after that, it will be found out sooner or later." ”

Lu Yuanyan said, "What if he wants to frame him?" ”

Before Zhou Mushu could speak, the proprietress came out from the back of the house with a pot of tea, covering her face with a handkerchief as she walked, and said with disgust, "Then he might as well frame Feng Min directly, what is there to worry about such a mediocre person who does nothing." ”

"Actually sent water drops of Guanyin tea, boss, what kind of evil wind are you blowing in the Yellow Spring today? So generous? Lu Yuanyan looked at the pot of tea with a surprised face, and raised his hand to fill it with Zhou Mushu, "Come on, come on, Huangquan specialty, also known as the judge laughs, you can't drink it outside." ”

Zhou Mushu looked at the blood-red tea, but didn't dare to make a move, the proprietress was still humming with Lu Yuanyan, "Don't leave this crooked story here to tell me in the future, it's disgusting." ”

Lu Yuanyan poured tea by himself, and said with a smile, "What does the proprietress have of this story?" ”

The proprietress rolled her eyes and grabbed the hair in her ear with one hand, "Those who are capable work hard, and those who are incompetent are just demons." ”

"Incisive." Lu Yuanyan motioned for Zhou Mushu to taste the tea, although Zhou Mushu frowned very reluctantly, but he still slowly took a sip, but he was shocked, and drank two cups in succession, because the tea looked bloody, but it was sweet and delicious, refreshing.

"Also, that jade has so much cause and effect, I'm afraid I'm going to be restless." The proprietress said, "Your trip is not a light task." ”

Lu Yuanyan had already gotten up and walked around to the edge of the stairs.

The proprietress said, "Where are you going?" ”

Lu Yuanyan didn't look back, "Since the task is not light, you have to rest well." ”

"Cut." When the proprietress saw him leaving, she felt bored, turned her head to look at Zhou Mushu, and a smile suddenly overflowed in her phoenix eyes.

The more the proprietress laughed, the happier she became, her eyes seemed to be able to stare through people, "I said little brother, you have to remember that your master is not a good person." ”
