The flowers bloom and stalk, each with a branch.

Here Mu Jiaojiao and Mu Jiaoyi sisters got together again and couldn't finish talking, over there Cui Pu and his party arrived at the edge of Slender West Lake, and a decently dressed person in charge took the initiative to greet them: "May I ask if you are the county master Cui of Tianchang County?"

Cui Pu's head. "Exactly. ”

"I'm the steward of the Wei family, Cui Xianzun, you just call me Wei Wu. My lord ordered me to serve you tonight, the painting boat and the food you want are ready, you and all the county lords, please come with me. The steward bowed to them respectfully, and then turned and led the way.

followed Wei Wu forward to the ferry, and saw that there were many boats densely packed there. Ships range from large to small, from ordinary to refined. But among the many ships in public, there was one boat that was exceptionally tall, much larger than the ships around it. The hull of the ship is also painted with paint brought from Persia, or playing the piano or singing and dancing, and even the expressions on the faces are lifelike.

Everyone saw it in their eyes and couldn't help whispering: "If you can sit on this painting boat tonight, then even if you can't see Yao Huang's little lady, you won't regret it!"

And while talking, Wei Wu really brought them to this boat!

When the group ascended to the second floor, they saw that the decoration of the ship was much more elaborate than the outside. The cabins are all made of rosewood and the windows are carved with peonies in full bloom.

Cui Pu invited everyone to sit down like a host. As soon as they sat down, a group of girls with delicate looks and identical makeup and dress rushed in, bringing wine and food to several cases in front of them.

There was also a group of female dancers sitting in the stern of the boat. When the cabin began to mingle, the soft sound of silk and bamboo was heard, and the melodious music enveloped the whole ship. Lined with the sparkling waves on the lake, there is a unique point elegance.

The prefectural magistrates were very satisfied with this arrangement. One person smiled and said to Cui Pu: "Cui Zhixian, you can arrange such a large painting boat in a short time, and there are so many delicious wines and delicacies, it can be seen that you are very capable, and you are also well-connected in Yangzhou City!"

"You actually think highly of me. These things are all prepared by my brother-in-law for the big guys. Cui Pu smiled, "My wife's maiden sister married a wealthy merchant in Yangzhou a few years ago, and now their business in Yangzhou City is doing well." Today, I heard that we were going to visit Slender West Lake, and this brother-in-law hurriedly prepared all this, and it didn't matter how I did it. It's a shame to say. ”

Are you ashamed? Why do I see the smile on your face getting brighter and brighter? A burst of anger surged in his chest, and Wu Lixin really wanted to pounce and tear his face!

He's fooled!

In fact, he Cui Pu had already discussed with his brother-in-law that he was going to come here to swim in the lake, so he didn't need to do it at all, his brother-in-law, who was born and raised in Yangzhou, had already prepared everything for them, just waiting for them to come over now!

And Cui Pu has now done his part to the extreme, but if he can't even do such a thing, you can imagine how embarrassed he will be tonight!

He's been pitted by this bastard again!

This time, letting his murderous gaze wander back and forth on his face, Cui Pu didn't bother to pay attention to him anymore, and only smiled and talked and laughed with other magistrates.

After about half an hour, Wu Lixin's little servant came in and whispered in his ear. Cui Pu swore that he heard Wu Lixin's teeth grinding.

After grinding his teeth for a long time, Wu Lixin struggled to squeeze out a sentence from between his teeth: "Two hundred is two hundred, you go and get the money for her now!"

The little guy hurriedly agreed.

After a while, I heard a light footstep coming from below. Before the curtain of the ship was lifted, I first smelled a fragrant breeze sent into the cabin by the cool night breeze, and the refreshing fragrance made everyone fascinated.

Immediately, the curtain was pulled open to both sides with two plain hands, and a girl wearing a goose-yellow dress with a high hair comb walked in slowly under the service of the maid.

She raised her head, and everyone immediately felt that their eyes lit up, and everyone's hearts were hooked high!

The girl stepped forward slowly and gave a gentle salute: "The concubine is late, and I ask the county lord to forgive me." ”

"It turns out that this is the little lady Yao Huang? It is really stunning, and she lives up to the name of the Oiran of Yangzhou Mansion!" A magistrate in his fifties suddenly had his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly raised his thumb and praised.

Everyone else was full of praise.

Only Cui Pu gave a thumbs up to Wu Lixin: "Wu Erlangjun is really a good skill, in such a short period of time, you really invited Yao Huang's little lady! If you change to this county, I'm afraid that this county can't do it!

Why didn't he feel happy at all when he said such things? Now he just wanted to tear him alive, drink his blood and gnaw his flesh!

This bastard!

It actually cost him a full 200 guan to invite this Oiran lady! If it were normal, this Oiran girl would be able to settle at most 50 yuan. He paid three times more!

Yesterday caused him to lose a concubine, and today he bleed 200 times. That's it, the most important thing is his face!

Not to mention losing people and money, what he lost more was this face!

This time he came to celebrate his birthday, and he lost a lot!

And now, the person who hurt him is still smiling at him and saying insincere words, how does this make him not want to swallow him alive?

Wu Lixin clenched his teeth, biting the tip of his tongue to taste the sweet smell of blood, and he slowly loosened his mouth: "Cui Zhixian, you are humble when you say this." Who here now doesn't know that you have a businessman in Yangzhou Mansion. With him, you can do whatever you want with half the effort. Like me, no matter what I do, I can only do it myself. Speaking of which, you're better...... Ah no, it should be said that your lady is more powerful. ”

Can't he change the point of attack? He said he wasn't tired of it, he was tired of hearing it, right?

Cui Pu was surprised and shouted: "Is that so? But didn't you tell me yesterday that the current Mrs. Zuo Governor is your cousin, and Zuo Governor has been promoted by the martial family, and if you do things in Yangzhou in the future, they will definitely take care of you?"

If they really wanted to take care of him, they would kick out his concubine? Would they let him be looked at the banquet today?

Speaking of which, it's all because of him! And his lady! Are these two his nemesis or what, why is it bad every time I meet them?

Wu Lixin hated himself so much that he was powerless, so he turned his head and said: "Everyone is here to swim in the lake, and what are you doing with those irrelevant things? Come on, come on, drink! Little lady Yaohuang, you can pick up your best song and dance and have a few songs! If you don't serve all the county lords here tonight, we won't let you go!"

"Ladies and gentlemen, please rest assured, the slave will definitely serve you well, and will never disappoint the two hundred times that Wuxian respects you. Yao Huang hurriedly stepped forward and said.

Hahaha!

Hearing this, Cui Pu couldn't help but smile and endure so hard.

Poor Wu Lixin, now he can't help but start to sympathize with him. After leaving Chang'an, there is no aura of the martial arts family, Concubine Wu Hui and King Shou hanging over his head, and even an Oiran lady dares to fight against him-aren't you working hard to earn these two hundred guan back? I'll let you watch it carefully!

Hahaha, this little lady in Yangzhou City seems to be as tender as water, but she is still a little angry when she starts her temper! But with such a soft tone, it doesn't make people want to be angry at all, but is so comfortable that she wants to squint.

Of course, that's what he thinks. Presumably, Wu Lixin must feel more angry in his heart, right?

It's just that he is on fire, who cares about him?

Soon Yao Huang played a pipa that she was best at, and then became an order, and together with the county orders, she made a wine order.

She also has some skills, and a few simple words at the right time can make the atmosphere in the cabin extremely lively.

Just as everyone was having fun, they suddenly heard a bang outside, and then the hull of the boat tilted, and everyone leaned in that direction. The cups, plates, dishes and other items on several cases also fell to the ground in an uproar.

"What's going on?" Cui Pu easily grabbed a pillar and sat firmly, and immediately scolded in a deep voice.

Outside, Steward Wei hurriedly walked in: "Don't panic, county lords. A ship came from the opposite side, and it rammed into this direction regardless of it. The boatman tried his best to dodge, but he still couldn't dodge, and the two boats rubbed slightly. Now, the ship's owner has gone to discuss with the owner of the ship. ”

Not long after he finished speaking, Xiao Si'er suddenly got in and desperately squeezed his eyebrows at Cui Pu.

Cui Pu frowned, and a bad premonition hit his heart.

But before he could ask, he saw a young man in a green coat and a green hat walk in: "Ladies and gentlemen, I really can't help it, just now our princess Her Royal Highness was drinking in the cabin, and in a moment of high spirits, she ordered the boatman to speed up the boat, and she liked this feeling." But I never thought that I accidentally crashed into your ship. When the princess found out, she was very angry, and she had punished the boatman for the wrongdoing, and she ordered her to bring food and wine to make amends to you. ”

As he spoke, someone carried a food box and delivered more exquisite wine and food to several people's cases.

Seeing that the other party has a good attitude of admitting his mistakes, and he is the respect of the princess, who dares to say anything about these county officials with big sesame grains?

Only Wu Lixin listened to the little girl's words, and asked with a smile: "I don't know which princess is on the ship?"

"Naturally, it is Princess Tangchang who came to Yangzhou to recuperate. The little guy said, "By the way, I remember that Wuxian Zun is also from Chang'an." The princess was thinking of you the other day. Since you have a fate today, why don't you go with a certain person to meet the princess!"

"When I used to play in the palace, I had a few encounters with the princess. Now that I've seen it today, I'm going to say hello to the princess. Wu Lixin nodded hurriedly, and then looked back at Cui Pu, "By the way, Sixth Brother Cui, don't you and the princess also know each other?

This matter, said that it was not designed by him and Princess Tang Chang, he didn't believe it!

"Since you have gone, Second Brother Wu, I naturally want to go. Cui Pu's face froze, he got up slowly, and walked out with a sad face.
