Volume 1: The Seven Stars of the Twilight of the World Chapter 180 The Realm of Ice and Fire

The old bustard of Xiangyue Building, who looks to be in his forties, seems to have only an elegant taste left to her by the years, but there is no trace of wind and frost, Boss Mei calls himself Lao Mei. And those crazy men and women who come and go call her Aunt Mei.

Aunt Mei always snorted, "What are you calling me crazy, calling me Sister Mei ......"

There was once a rich kid who had just entered Xiangyue Building who didn't understand the amorous feelings, so he really shouted Sister Mei without knowing the depths, and deliberately put a touch on Boss Mei's shoulder. As a result, the next day, he was slapped forty times in the street, and his molars were knocked off. If it weren't for Sister Mei's subordinates to take care of business, I'm afraid that this hairy boy would even lose his life.

At that time, Huo Ping was the Yulin guard who was patrolling the city, and he wanted to start investigating the matter, but fortunately, thanks to Zu Yu's order, he did not break into a big disaster. The title of "Sister Mei" is rumored to be called only one person in the imperial city. That title naturally symbolizes some kind of power. Although the imperial city is large and full of all kinds of people, there is one thing that cannot be tolerated, and that is power. If there is a slight mistake in this matter, the result will be a head.

But the more there is such a risk, the more prosperous the business of Xiangyue Building is, first, there are no ruffians and bandits doing evil, and second, the pink singers in this Xiangyue Building, all of them are famous and prosperous, and they are the first in the world. As long as you have enough gold in your waist and can be looked at by the rouge oil powder of Xiangyue Building, the dream of a night is still unknown.

The garden of Xiangyue Building, wide and three-in, is composed of three halls of Luan Yu Palace, Star Picking Platform and Ice and Fire Palace.

The protagonists in the Luan Yu Palace are all from the outstanding people who have been filled with official concubines, these women were originally rich and noble women, and they are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. It was only because of his life experience that he became a singer, and he was committed to those who looked for flowers and willows every day.

But fortunately, the backstage of the Luan Yu Hall is quite hard, and the guests are quite respectful of the singer, and everyone takes what they need, but they are all right. Zhao Meier used to be a concubine here, but she wanted to save Zhao Tingwei but to no avail.

The Star-Picking Observatory is another magical place. Daxia Sheng'an has always admired the loyalty of monarchs and ministers, and taught etiquette, righteousness and honesty, but also tolerated some special habits. Especially the star-picking platform of Xiangyue Building, which is specially arranged for handsome young people who like male style or deep resentment women.

But the first of the three halls is the most mysterious ice and fire palace located on the north side of Xiangyue Tower.

This Ice and Fire Palace, non-dignitaries are not allowed to enter, and the lord of the town palace is the Sheng'an Oiran. If you want to become an Oiran, the competition is particularly fierce, and you need not only to be unique in color and art, but also to change often. whetted the appetite of the disciples in Sheng'an City.

Zu Yu took Huo Ping and them, and went straight to the Ice and Fire Palace where the Oiran was located, and the familiar road through the hall and the lane, and the introduction of surprise, this month's Oiran is from the West, it is said that the powerful people in the DPRK and China have almost visited this mouth, but unfortunately no one can enter the eyes of this Lu Li girl.

"Then what are you bringing us here for?" complained to a close friend, "It's better to go to Luan Yu Tower, where the girls are not ordinary, and they can also make our brothers a good one." ”

Zu Yu shook off the folding fan in his hand with a hula and shook it gently in his hand, quite a bit of the taste of a lupine scarf, "Fei Ye, Fei Ye." Don't underestimate this stealing jade and stealing incense, red powder is like fine wine, don't care about the entrance through the throat, the real superb, even if it is just a smell of its fragrance, it has won countless in the world. ”

Hey~ The other people expressed disdain, but they couldn't help but start to be curious about this top brand from the West, Miss Lu Li.

The rules of Xiangyue Building, if you want to become the guest of the Oiran, you must first go through the approval of the Oiran. Therefore, the Oiran is not only the signboard of Xiangyue Building, but also a strong sense of ritual.

These top goddess debuts, in the form of competition to choose their own guests, for the Oiran and guests, are worth showing off, for the Oiran and the guests, many of the previous Oiran rely on this platform to marry into the imperial city.

Zu Yu was a frequent visitor to this Xiangyue Tower, and the doorman of the Ice and Fire Palace greeted him warmly when he saw him. Zu Yu handed a gold medal inlaid with jade to the doorman, "This is my brand." ”

The Palace of Ice and Fire will issue special hands to eligible guests. The doorman hurriedly nodded, "Lord Zu is polite, you are our honored guest." However, having said that, the doorman still carefully checked the gold medal in his hand a few times, and then handed it over to the gatekeeper to put it away, raised his hand, beckoned the little two inside, and welcomed Zu Yu and the others in.

Huo Ping actually prefers to dance with knives and guns, but after Zu Yu's fanning along the way, he was somewhat interested, followed behind Zu Yu, climbed the stairs, and entered the gate of the Ice and Fire Palace.

As soon as you enter the Zhu Gate, the scenery in front of you is really eye-catching. In the lobby, along both sides of the passage, gilded bronze candelabras are neatly stacked. Several red candles the thickness of a child's wrist lit a tall and bright flame that illuminated the patterns of gold leaf on the walls.

There was not a trace of black smoke in the wick, and there was a faint fragrance of milk fat. Huo Ping frowned, and pulled the corner of Zuyu's clothes, "This is the butter candle of Xifan?"

Zu Yu grinned and teased, "Brother Huo bluntly said that he has never set foot in Fengyue, but he has a lot of experience in the doorways here." ”

Huo Ping no longer answered, muttering in his heart, this butter candle is the same as the sweat and blood horses, it is the national treasure of the West, even in the palace of Great Xia, and he is reluctant to squander the butter candle so much, it seems that Zu Yu's boast also has some truth, and there is really a lot of article in this Xiangyue Building.

Walking all the way down the soft flannel red carpet under their feet, turning a spiral staircase, Xiao Er led them to the Crystal Palace on the second floor.

In the crystal palace, the temperature plummeted, so that everyone couldn't help but shiver, in the center of this layer of the palace, there is a high two zhang, about five zhang wide circular glazed pool, there is a faint sound of water flow in the pool, but there is mist gently rippling on the surface of the pool. Looking through the side of the glazed pool, through the mysterious transparent liquid, a jade carved and lifelike palace stands quietly in the center of the pool, as if a dragon will fly out of the temple at any time.

The four walls of the two-story building are also the same as the glass, shining with crystal light, Huo Ping couldn't help but touch it secretly with his hand, and suddenly felt the coldness, the wall turned out to be made of real ice cubes, and the wall carved out lifelike reliefs, countless crystal clear flying goddesses, some played the pipa on their backs, and some had jade flutes in their mouths, as if they were playing the curling fairy music.

Through the hollow ice sculpture scene, behind the wall, you can vaguely see the real fairies dancing, the fairies only care about the dancing graceful posture, but they don't care about the lack of an inch on their bodies. The fragrant scenery makes the guests who pass by dry mouth.

Huo Ping and the others were surprised by what they saw, and just wanted to stop and understand, and didn't want to be led by Zu Yu in front of him on the shoulder, "Brothers, don't move your legs, tonight's protagonist is still on it." ”

A few people scratched their heads in embarrassment and joked, so they had to reluctantly continue to go up, but their eyes were still difficult to take their eyes off the back of the ice wall. Just like that, go up one more spiral staircase. On the spiral staircase on the third floor, there is also a square plaque, and three strong characters jump into view, "Fire Palace".

Unexpectedly, there were already many first-arrived guests waiting in the "Fire Palace" on the third floor. Xiao Er led Zu Yu and Huo Ping to find a round table. As soon as everyone sat down, a maid and maid presented some rare fruits, Zu Yu arranged for everyone to sit down, handed Xiao Er a snowflake of silver, and sent him away.

"Brothers, use the fruit cushion first, there will be high-quality food here in a while, we can wait while eating. ”

Huo Ping actually recognized a few familiar faces on the round tables around him, all of them were the children of some second-rank and above officials in the court, and after greeting him, he asked Zu Yu curiously, "Why don't you see anything unique on this floor, what are we waiting for?"

"How else to say that my brother only cares about national affairs on weekdays, and even ignores the scenery around us, brother, look there......" Zu Yu pointed to the direction opposite the round table with a mysterious face.

At this time, Huo Ping saw some clues, the entire fire palace on this floor, along the middle of the main hall, was separated by a waist-high fence, all the guests sat around different round tables on this side of the fence, and on the other side of the fence, it was covered tightly by a black curtain hanging from the top, and I don't know what kind of scene was hidden on the side of the curtain.

Seeing Huo Ping's confused appearance, Zu Yu no longer sold Guanzi. Every day, it is the time for the Oiran to show off her talents, and the other end of this curtain is the stage on which the Oiran will appear.

The talents of the Oiran are different, and every time the curtain is opened, it will give people an unexpected and amazing scene. Only guests who are better at the Oiran will have the opportunity to interact with the Oiran game. And as long as the Oiran agrees, then the winning guest has the opportunity to be the lucky winner of the night, and enter the Oiran's boudoir.

"Joke, how can we big men compete with those girls with willow waists and thin buttocks? But if you play the piano and embroider, that's not what our old men are capable of. ”

Huo Ping's complaint caused everyone to laugh, and Zu Yu comforted, "Brother Huo is really temperamental. The talent of these Oirans is outstandingly ruthless. Last year, the Oiran was good at the drinking order. Twenty drunken people who were not afraid of death were drunk on the mountain of flames. ”

"Flaming Mountain?" Huo Ping repeated Zu Yu's introduction curiously.

Zu Yu looked proud, "Yes, I have also seen the true face of the last Oiran, she is the iron fan fairy on the Flame Mountain......"

When everyone was waiting with each other, suddenly from the top of the fire palace, slowly descended a white jade lotus platform, a woman on the lotus platform slightly powdered, black bun high pull, a black satin embedded with vermilion jade from the shoulders to the lotus platform at the feet, showing a bit of domineering wealth.

"Aunt Mei, Aunt Mei......" Some regular customers couldn't help but cheer when they saw the woman on the lotus platform, and greeted the owner of Xiangyue Building.

The lotus platform was attached to the curtain, and it landed until it was more than one person high above the fence before it stopped steadily, and Boss Mei elegantly stretched out his palm and waved it towards the guests with a warm atmosphere, and introduced it in a charming manner.

"Let you wait for a long time, our Oiran of Xiangyue Building, Lu Lijing from the West, the performance I want to bring to you tonight is Dayi Jinwu. ”

The sound was sweet to the ear, echoing through the clever arrangement of the fire palace. Just such an appearance introduction has already made many lovers want to be confused.

But these regular customers know that there is a sense of proportion, and this boss Mei can't afford to provoke.
