Chapter 8: Can't afford to offend
Zuixian House is the most famous restaurant in Beijing, with three lofts to receive guests of different statuses.
Lu Fan and Su Qiao'er followed the bustard into the restaurant, and the attic at the bottom was almost full at the moment. The old bustard twisted his waist and shook the flower fan in his hand.
"This son, you can call me Aunt Hong, I see that you are a little faceless, this is the first time you have come to the Drunken Immortal Building, right?" She walked in front with a smile on her face and led Lu Fan to the attic on the second floor.
The attic on the second floor is dedicated to receiving distinguished guests, and the old bustard probably has a judgment from Lu Fan's dress. Even if they are not children of the royal family in the capital, they are also rich and noble.
Su Qiao'er followed closely behind Lu Fan, the first time she went to a place like Drunken Immortal Tower, her heart was pounding nervously.
There was a dim reddish glow, men and women were in close contact with each other, and some were even drinking glasses of wine. In the central stand, there are also some bewitching women in tulle skirts dancing.
Woo...... Why is there such a place? Why did the prince take me with him?
"We don't have anything else, but the girls are absolutely top-notch. Childe, enjoy it, just say hello to the girl if you have something! Aunt Hong's face was full of smiles, and she shook her fan with one hand on her waist.
She took Lu Fan to the attic on the second floor and sat down with a wide view, and was about to turn around and leave.
Play this with me...... Lu Fan smiled coldly: "Stop, where is the Oiran named by this son?" ”
Before coming in, Aunt Hong didn't talk about any Oiran matters, but just asked Lu Fan and Su Qiao'er to enter the Drunken Immortal Building first and take a seat, and then slowly discuss the price.
This kind of routine Lu Fan has encountered many times in his previous life, even when he goes to a bar with his colleagues to relax, the sales will try his best to trick people into it first.
Aunt Hong hesitated for a while, and a smile immediately appeared on her face, she came to Lu Fan with a smile and patted Lu Fan's chest gently: "Oh boy, every girl here is like a flower, and they are no worse than an Oiran." That's it, Childe, you're here for the first time, and I'll give you free drinks! ”
"All-you-can-drink? Do you think Ben Gongzi looks like a man who is short of money? Lu Fan took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms and slapped them directly on the table.
Aunt Hong's pupils shrank, and her body trembled as she looked at the pile of silver tickets on the table.
"My son will spend the night in the Drunken Immortal Building today, five thousand taels, is it enough?" Lu Fan had a hint of a smile on his face.
Guo Xukun would come to find the Oiran of the Drunken Immortal Building every night, and now the bustard was hesitating, probably knowing Guo Xukun's identity.
"It seems that Aunt Hong doesn't like money very much." Lu Fan smiled and prepared to take back the silver ticket.
However, the silver ticket was suppressed by a hand, and I saw Aunt Hong throwing a wink at Lu Fan: "Childe, you are laughing, don't say it is an oiran, if you want Aunt Hong to accompany you, Aunt Hong is also willing." It's just ......"
"But what?"
"Alas, you don't know, Childe. Our Xiaoxiang Oiran has to accompany a distinguished guest every night, and the identity of this distinguished guest ......"
Xiaoxiang is the stage name of Oiran, and Lu Fan only knows it now.
"Distinguished guests? What kind of distinguished guest is it, is it higher than the status of this son? Lu Fan picked up the tea on the table and said indifferently.
"This ......" Aunt Hong hesitated.
The other party is a guest of the Ministry of Rites' family, and if the guest secretary of the Ministry of Rites is rumored to be out, I am afraid that this business will be difficult to do in the future.
Drunken Immortal Lou will not suffer, but her Aunt Hong will definitely suffer.
"Childe, Aunt Hong doesn't dare to talk nonsense. You wait a while, I will immediately arrange for Xiaoxiang to come over to accompany you......" Aunt Hong smiled and turned to leave.
As soon as she left, she was followed by a woman in a white tulle dress.
Aunt Hong's expression became indifferent, and she glanced at the woman in the white dress next to her: "How is it?" Have you asked? ”
"Aunt Hong, no one has seen this son, and no one knows his identity." The woman in the white dress bowed and said.
When Lu Fan took out five thousand taels of silver tickets, the woman in the white dress began to inquire about Lu Fan's true identity. But the regulars and insiders of the Drunken Immortal Building have never seen this person.
"That's weird, he's not a guest in other restaurants, why did he suddenly choose Xiaoxiang?" Aunt Hong frowned, puzzled in her heart.
The woman in the white dress hesitated for a moment before she spoke: "Aunt Hong, why don't we return the silver ticket to him?" After all, Guo Gongzi is a guest of the Ministry of Rites' family, if he investigates it......"
"Huh...... What do you think Guo Gongzi would do if he knew that his people had been snatched away? ”
"Guo Gongzi will definitely be angry, even ......"
Aunt Hong walked to the front of the room and stopped, with a fox-like smile on her face: "So, we don't need to bear any consequences, we can pocket these five thousand taels." Guo Gongzi's side, you know what to say, right? ”
The woman in the white dress looked back at Lu Fan's location and nodded slightly: "I know, but if Guo Gongzi kills him, will it affect the Drunken Immortal Building?" ”
She was a little worried that Guo Xukun would kill someone, and during this time she clearly knew that Guo Xukun and Xiaoxiang had developed feelings, and it wouldn't even take long to redeem Xiaoxiang.
If this is happening now, there is no guarantee that it will not happen.
"He is a guest of the Ministry of Rites, who can provoke him, how many people are there in this capital? What about the children of wealthy merchants? This is the capital! ”
After saying the last sentence, Aunt Hong smiled coldly and pushed the door in.
……
The county lord of Pingnan sat in the boudoir of the palace, she held a book in her hand and looked at the poems on it.
In life, the county lord loves poetry and even writes his own poems. The walls were not covered with the decorations that should be in the boudoir, but the poems she wrote on occasional spurs.
"County Lord, someone sent a message that Lu Shizi took the maid who was slapped by Guo Xukun last night to the Drunken Immortal Tower."
Outside, the voices of the subordinates were heard.
The county lord of Pingnan put down the poems in his hand, and his willow eyebrows frowned slightly: "What are you doing in the drunken immortal building?" ”
After she divorced on that day, she made people pay close attention to Lu Fan's whereabouts. Now that the marriage contract is not completely dissolved for the time being, it is necessary to grasp Lu Fan's weakness first, and then force him to withdraw from the marriage.
"It's hypocritical." The county lord of Pingnan let out a sigh, and the disgust for Lu Fan in his heart deepened again.
What do you do with the maid in the drunken fairy building?
Of course, it proves that he didn't sprinkle his anger on the maid, as for revenge on Guo Xukun? If you want to get back to the factory, with the style of Guogongfu and Lu Fan, you will never wait until tonight.
"I really don't know what my father thought at the beginning, such a hypocritical and incompetent person, even if he hasn't lost his cultivation, it is impossible to support the Guogong Mansion."
The lord of Pingnan felt more and more that it was a very correct decision to withdraw from the marriage. She no longer wanted to continue to pay attention to Lu Fan, but instead asked, "When will my father come back?" ”
"Tell the county lord, the prince recently accompanied His Majesty to play chess in the Jingshan Palace, I'm afraid it will be a few days."
"I see, you tell your father. I will deal with the marriage contract of the Guogong Mansion in the next few days, so don't worry about it. The prince of the Imperial Palace...... Just an incompetent and angry hypocritical villain. ”
