When he arrived in Suzhou, it was already sunset, and Yu Ren took Zhao Rui to Xu Xinsu's guerrilla general's mansion first. Seeing that Xu Hai had gone, he took Zhao Rui to the restaurant where the banquet was held.

As soon as I arrived at the door of the restaurant, I saw that Huang Yuanji, Xiong Wencan's first strategist, was already standing at the door waiting. Seeing Yu Ren, Huang Yuanji hurriedly caught up. "Brother Yu, you're finally here. I thought you wouldn't be able to come! ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I went back to Songjiang because of something at home, and when I saw Lord Xiong's invitation, I hurried over. ”

"Please, please." Huang Yuanji gave a glance at Zhao Rui behind Yu Ren.

"This is Madame Zun, right?"

"It's not. He is a friend of mine, and also a cousin of Mr. Wen Yan, the daughter of Mr. Donglin Taidou Zhao. Yu Ren introduced.

Huang Yuanji heard that Zhao Rui was Zhao Nanxing's daughter, so he hurriedly gave up, "It turned out to be Zhao Shimei." It's hard to come by. Let's go upstairs together. ”

Although Huang Yuanji was enthusiastic, there was a hint of surprise on his face.

The three went upstairs. I saw that Xu Hai had already arrived, and in addition to Wang Wenyan, I didn't see Sun Sheng and Xiong Wencan. Yu Ren didn't care, thinking that the two of them hadn't arrived yet. Huang Yuanji ordered the banquet to be opened.

"What, aren't we waiting for Lord Xiong and Grandpa Sun?"

"A few days ago, Grandpa Sun personally escorted a batch of tax silver north to the capital. Lord Xiong suddenly had something to do yesterday and was summoned to Nanjing. Nor can it come. That's all for today. They are all unofficial, and everyone can drink happily without being restrained.

After eating and drinking, I also arranged a wonderful song and dance! ”

Speaking of this, Huang Yuanji seemed to glance at Zhao Rui unintentionally. Yu Ren also used to mix in this kind of singing and dancing drinking party in his previous life, knowing that in this kind of place, ordinary men will inevitably tell some erotic jokes, Zhao Rui is a big girl's family, it is really inconvenient to sit here.

So, Yu Ren leaned over and whispered in Zhao Rui's ear, "There are all men here, you are sitting in a girl's house, I'm afraid it's not very convenient." Why don't I have someone else downstairs in a private room?" You go there and wait for me. Luckily? ”

Zhao Rui is a smart person, their family is in business, although she is still just a girl, but she still has some understanding of this kind of banquet for men. In fact, as soon as she came up, she saw that there were only a few big men on it, and Zhao Rui wanted to leave. At this time, Yu Ren brought it up, and naturally there was no one who did not agree.

So, Yu Ren proposed to Huang Yuanji to help Zhao Rui find a private room downstairs.

Huang Yuanji laughed. "You don't need to look for this. You know that we are eating wine here, but you don't know that their women's houses are also eating wine. It's just that they're not here, they're in my house. It's better to send Zhao Shimei to my house. Her cousin-in-law was also there, and there were a lot of people, so they happened to be close. ”

Yu Ren looked at Zhao Rui.

"It's fine. I haven't seen my cousin in a long time. It's a rare opportunity to get together. Zhao Rui did not refuse.

So Huang Yuanji hurriedly sent someone to send Zhao Rui to the Huang Mansion, and Yun'er, who came with him, was supposed to go with him, but was stopped by Zhao Rui. "You are here to serve Yu Xianggong and them, remember not to let Xianggong get drunk!"

Yun'er is a shrewd girl, and she has followed the young lady for many years, as soon as Zhao Rui said this, she understood the meaning. That was to keep her here so that she could keep an eye on Yu Ren and not let him be spoiled by these people.

Huang Yuanji saw that Zhao Rui was gone, although he left a girl, he didn't care. It's just a girl, where does he put it in his eyes. So Huang Yuanji ordered, "Go to song and dance." ”

After a while, several singers with heavy makeup walked up, followed by a woman holding a lute.

Yu Ren doesn't care, it's not the first time he's appreciating the songs and dances of this era, every time he performs, it's like a concert, it's also lively.

The women came up and sang and danced for a while. At first, he danced very Sven, but then it gradually became a little explicit. The clothes on the body are also jumping less and less, and the exposed parts are also more and more. It's a bit like a modern striptease.

Several men sat on it and watched and laughed.

"How? Yu Xianggong has never seen this kind of dance! This is a new unique signature track created in our Suzhou Spring Festival Building. ”

Yu Ren looked at Xu Hai and saw that he was watching with relish, so he didn't comment. Everyone is an adult, although Yu Ren doesn't like to watch this kind of show, but he is not as disgusted as some old masters.

At this time, Ping'er on the side expressed his opinion, "What kind of dance is this!" It's just an excuse to take it off for men to see. Such a woman, as long as she pays money, why can't she do it! It's really shameless to get home, what's there to see. ”

Huang Yuanji saw that Ping'er actually started a discussion, and couldn't help but say, "Old man, watching the play and talking, what are you talking about." ”

Ping'er replied, "I didn't want to intervene, but you look at these shameless songs and dances, but you have to pull my father-in-law into it!" I will also follow the harm, and see these women ashamed. ”

Huang Yuanji saw that although Ping'er was spicy, her appearance was very beautiful, and he saw that Yu Ren's service to her didn't seem to be an ordinary maid, so he stopped talking about her. In Huang Yuanji's mind, this girl is Yu Ren's concubine nine times out of ten, otherwise which girl would dare to be so arrogant in front of her master. And this kind of maid attendant thing is also common in the era of the Ming Dynasty.

"Good! You're right. Then let's not watch these vulgar songs and dances. Change to a more elegant one, it's always okay! After Huang Yuanji finished speaking, he clapped his hands, and these half-exposed singers all retreated. Then he called a girl who was serving and whispered a few words in her ear.

After a while, another woman came up.

This woman looked seventeen or eighteen years old, but her hair was already tied in knots on her head, indicating that she was married to a wife. I saw that she was lightly powdered, bright but not vulgar, wearing a long pink dress, and a string of silver-white pearls hanging around her neck. Although the clothes are simple but unconventional, he holds a pipa in his hand.

The woman walked up to the stage and bowed to everyone, then sat quietly on a stool next to her, and stopped talking.

When several men saw this woman, their eyes lit up, especially Xu Hai. Ever since this woman came to power, he has been so absorbed in her that he has forgotten where it is.

Yu Ren also felt a light in his eyes. This woman is really good, but he only looks at it with admiration, as if he had seen a fine ceramic, but she belongs to someone else, and he has no intention of keeping it for himself, just looking at it.

"This is a sister of my own family, named Suqin, just because she has a good pipa since elementary school, she is a little arrogant, and she always wants to marry a hero. But her life was not good, but she later married a useless man, and soon the man died again. Because her father died young, and she had no brothers, I took her to live with us. Her pipa was even praised by Lord Xiong, and she was recognized as her goddaughter.

When she heard that I was going to have a banquet for Yu Xianggong and Xu Dangjia, she had to come and see. Miss Ping'er wanted to watch an elegant opera, but I didn't prepare here, so I had to let her go. ”

After Huang Yuanji finished introducing, he said to Huang Suqin, "You usually always say that there are few heroes in this world who can really admire you, and these two in front of you are really heroes." The last time Yu Xianggong was in Hangzhou City, the sword was unsheathed, and he defeated the young son of the Li family in Tieling and the masters around him in a small test, you know this.

This Xu is in charge, that is also the person who led thousands of brothers, not long ago on Nansha Island, he also made several thousand generals under Lord Xiong suffer a big loss, it can be said that he has a talent in Huaiyin.

You can see them today, and it's your creation. Just play your best song for everyone to listen to! ”

Huang Suqin took a few steps forward with the pipa in her arms, she first saluted Yu Ren, and Yu Ren smiled and said, "Sister Shi, please get up." ”

Huang Suqin walked up to Xu Hai again and saluted him. Xu Hai hurriedly stretched out his big hand and helped her up with both hands. As if he was afraid that she would fall.

Huang Suqin raised his phoenix eyes lightly, glanced at Xu Hai, then retreated to the same place, and then slowly sat down and played the pipa. Her pipa is really good, although Yu Ren is a complete layman to music, but you can also hear that the music she plays is very unusual.

After playing the song "Zhaojun Out of the Plug", everyone was a little stupid when they listened to it. Huang Suqin herself seemed to be deeply immersed in that atmosphere and couldn't extricate herself for a long time.

After a long while, I saw her slowly pick up the pipa and come up again to salute Yu Ren and Xu Hai.

Yu Ren saw Huang Suqin come forward to salute, so he stood up, but saw her glance behind him, and a slight smile appeared on his face. Yu Ren couldn't help but look back. It turned out that Ping'er had walked behind her without knowing when, almost clinging to herself, and looked at Huang Suqin with a wary face, as if Yu Ren was a beloved thing in her hand, and Huang Suqin was going to snatch it.

Yu Ren couldn't help but laugh when he saw Ping'er like this. "Ping'er, what are you doing?"
