Chapter 1: Waiting for the Idle to Change but the Old Heart

Next Chapter



Nanxi, the imperial city of Jingzhou, brothel drunken flower building.

The summer breeze gently blew up the curtains of the bed, revealing a piece of jade arm and wrist. The skin is like clotted fat, ice muscles and jade bones, you can imagine how beautiful this woman is.

But what is very bad is that the arm that should be flawless is covered with deep and shallow scars, as if drawn by hairpins, some have already fallen off the scab, and some are still scarlet and dazzling.

The little maid Qin'er sat on the edge of the bed, weeping while giving medicine to her master, sobbing and saying, "Miss, why are you torturing yourself like this? Helian Gongzi is going to get married tonight, if he really cares about you, how can he let you be bullied by that jealous woman? ”

The scarred woman's name on the jade arm is "Han Chu", fifteen years old, is the top brand of the drunken flower building, known as "the first beauty of Nanxi".

At this moment, this beauty is lying on the bed, looking haggard and pale as paper. But the beautiful but not demonic, gaudy but vulgar smoky state is so outstanding, it is like a clear white peony, so delicate that it can't be hidden.

Hearing the persuasion of the maid Qin'er, Han Chu did not reply, but just looked at the top of the tent with blank eyes, like a beautiful corpse, lifeless.

Han Chu couldn't understand why Helian Gongzi, who was still at odds with her a month ago, suddenly abandoned her, without even half an explanation, and only sent a little maid to spread the word that he was getting married.

He was her first and only guest to enter the scene. I thought that such lingering joy would never end, but now, those mountain alliances and sea vows have finally become a thing of the past.

Helian Gongzi, is it actually a scene?

He Lianqi, who had waited in front of the small building for a full month, rain or shine, just wanted to see the beauty;

The one who once spent a lot of money and found rare treasures to make her smile was Helianqi;

The one who used to sit still and love her with affection and compassion was Helianqi;

And now, it is Helianqi who allows her to be wantonly bullied by her fiancée.

The elegant man she had put in her eyes full of satisfaction, and all that was left to her to this day was the hairpin marks on his arms and the vicious insult of his wife.

Han Chu thought that she had escaped the tragic fate of the Qinglou woman, but the facts were in front of her, and she still couldn't escape the eight-character curse - acting on the spot and being lucky.

The slanting sun gradually engulfed the last touch of twilight, and also brought a room of gloom.

Tonight's drunken flower building is particularly quiet, just because it is the day of the marriage between the Helian clan of the hairpin family and the Ming clan of the current dynasty, the marquis and princesses in the imperial city and the dignitaries and eunuchs all went to participate in this grand wedding banquet to see the two families have been married for a hundred years.

Helian Qi and Ming Ying, husband and wife have been one and related since then. And at the beginning of her Han Dynasty, she was just a cheap prostitute for pre-marital entertainment, and she was not even a concubine.

The wedding ceremony should start now! When the long-held wetness crossed his eyes, Han Chu was tired and tired, so he slowly closed his eyes......

A crisp sound of "pop" came, and the medicine bottle in Qin'er's hand accidentally fell to the ground. She looked at Han Chu on the couch with wide eyes, and shouted in horror: "Miss! Miss! Wake up! Don't scare me! ”

Xu was too harsh, and Han Chu's long eyelashes flashed. She seemed to try her best to open her eyes, but she couldn't resist her drowsy consciousness.

The sound of the door opening sounded at this moment, and a charming woman about thirty years old hurried in. When Qin'er saw someone coming, she greeted her as if she had met a savior, and greeted: "Mother Feng." ”

The woman who was called "Mother Feng" was the bustard's mother of Zuihualou, and she was also the leader in Nanxi Fengyue ten years ago.

At this moment, Mother Feng had already walked to Hanchu's bed, reached out to probe her forehead, and immediately frowned and asked Qin'er: "Why are your hands so hot?" How did you take care of her? ”

Qin'er was a little aggrieved, and replied with a crying voice: "It's the young lady who won't let the doctor ......"

"Nonsense!" Mother Feng scolded Qin'er angrily, and the wind caught a glimpse of the wound on Han Chu's arm: "Who got it?" ”

At this point, Qin'er didn't dare to hide it anymore, so she could only reply tremblingly: "Yes...... The fiancée of Helian Gongzi, the eldest lady of the Ming family. ”

Hearing this, a look of distress flashed on Mother Feng's face, and she asked again: "How many times did she torture Han Chu?" ”

"Three times before and after." The resentment in Qin'er's words could not be withered.

Three times! This stupid girl was bullied three times by Mingying's jealous woman! Mother Feng suddenly felt angry, like a female beast guarding a calf.

However, it was only for a moment, she had already controlled her emotions well, and said to Qin'er in a deep voice: "Shen Gongzi is drinking in the flower hall right now, you go and invite him over." ”

Qin'er immediately took the order and left.

Mother Feng looked at Han Chu who was sleeping on the couch and couldn't help sighing: "When you insisted on choosing Helian Qi, I persuaded you. The Helian family has a century-old scholarly fragrance, the most important reputation, and he is a grandson, how can he welcome you through the door? I'm afraid that even being a concubine is not enough for ...... status."

Speaking of this, Mother Feng's tone was slightly gloomy: "What kind of woman is that Mingying?" The current queen's niece, who is notoriously arrogant and domineering in the imperial city, how can she tolerate her fiancé Jun and the Qinglou woman messing around? If you had listened to my words and chosen the Nine Emperor Princes as your guest of honor, you would not have ended up so sad. ”

Mother Feng was sighing at the bed, but the sound of the door opening behind her had sounded again.

She turned around and happened to see a lake blue robe walking into the house, Shen Gongzi's face was like a crown of jade, and his instrument was magnificent, but he had a look of being a hanger, not serious.

Mother Feng swept the red lipstick on the placket of his clothes, pretended to smile ambiguously, and then begged in a low voice: "Son, it's good, just check the pulse of my baby pimple." ”

The young man surnamed Shen raised his eyebrows slightly, and his sloppy eyes exuded a bit of carelessness. He obviously knew who the woman on the couch was, but he seemed to have made up his mind to stay out of the matter, and laughed mockingly: "What? Is she hurt by love? To die or to live? ”

"When is it, Childe is still talking about cool things!" Mother Feng said a little anxiously: "Han Chu was bullied by Miss Ming three times and five times, and he has gone to half his life. Where do I have the time to ask for a doctor again! Let's take a look. ”

Mother Feng observed Shen Gongzi's expression as she spoke, and saw that he frowned, revealing a little concern. She couldn't help but be slightly complacent, she didn't look away in the end, this person had thoughts about Han Chu, and it was not in vain that she specially invited him over.

Thinking like this, Mother Feng took the initiative to lift the curtain of the bed, revealing her beautiful and miserable face, and persuaded Shen Gongzi: "Saving someone's life is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter, and Han Chu can't delay it anymore!" ”

Shen Gongzi stared at the haggard face on the couch, and finally did not refuse again: "Mother Feng go out, let me treat with peace of mind." ”

Mother Feng hurriedly smiled and agreed, and motioned for Qin'er to step down with her. The two guarded Han Chu's door and waited for the results of Shen Gongzi's diagnosis and treatment.

The room was so quiet that no movement could be heard, and there was something strange about it.

But after a while, Shen Gongzi had already pushed the door out, and said to Mother Feng: "If she practices herself like this again, Da Luo Immortal will not be able to save her!" As he spoke, he handed over a porcelain vase and instructed, "Apply it to the affected area on her arm twice a day." ”

Mother Feng took the medicine bottle, glanced at the room with some concern, and asked tentatively, "How is Hanchu?" ”

"She's awake." Shen Gongzi's face became more and more unsightly, and he reprimanded with a calm face: "Is Helian Qi still a man?" He finally put down this sentence and walked away with a cold snort.

Mother Feng watched Shen Gongzi's back disappear into the corner of the corridor before she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She returned to the house with Qin'er, and saw Han Chu sitting on the bed, although he was still in good spirits, but he was sober.

Mother Feng was a little angry at this time, and was about to open her mouth to scold Han Chu for giving up on herself, but she didn't know that the other party had opened her mouth first, and her voice was like a mosquito and a fly, extremely delicate and gentle: "Mom is angry, I know that I am wrong." After tonight, there will never be a single tear for Helian Qi. ”

"Just remember." Mother Feng's voice became cold, and she was completely distressed and sighed: "The woman in the Qinglou should take love lightly, you are in your prime and famous, and you will meet better ones in the future." ”

Mother Feng paused for a moment, hardened her heart to poke Han Chu's pain: "It's nothing if it's not Qingqi'er, as long as you haven't conceived a child, there is always a way out." ”

Hearing this, Han Chu's face immediately turned pale.

Mother Feng saw it in her eyes, hurt in her heart, and her tone softened. She gently stroked the scars on Han Chu's arm, and patiently persuaded: "Your piano skills are well-known and praised by the world, don't spoil your skills for a Helian Qi." ”

Mother Feng stood up as she said and walked towards the door: "A good student will raise her body, and she must keep the title of 'Nanxi's first beauty'." Half a month later, you'll have to re-list to pick up customers. ”
