Chapter 17 The Wind Blows
Tianyin Pavilion.
The large banquet room was brightly lit.
In the middle of the hall, there is the main seat of the host of the Tianyin Pavilion, and there are ten seats on the left and right below the main seat, a total of twenty seats, which means that twenty guests have been invited tonight.
When Lin Xiuran walked to the door of the hall, there were already many people sitting in the hall, and Lin Xiuran estimated that he was the latest to arrive.
As soon as he stepped into the hall, the eyes in the hall were all removed from the light and graceful white body of the beautiful dancer in the hall and looked at him.
Those countless pairs of eyes, each different.
or with a hint of playful smile, or without shying away from casting disgusted glances, and some, with flattering looks, these people probably want to get to know themselves at the dinner, so as to borrow their own hands to climb the high branches of the Rongguo Mansion.
The appearance of all living beings, Lin Xiuran doesn't have to pay attention to it.
He didn't even need to say a word, as soon as he stepped into the hall, a person from Tianyin Pavilion led him to the seat that belonged to him and sat down.
Lin Xiuran was silent, followed him, came to his seat, and sat down calmly.
He didn't pay attention to the eyes of those people, but he put his mind on the beautiful dancing girls dancing in the field.
The dancing girl's dance clothes are made of pitiful fabric, the thighs can't be covered, the white and tender arms can't be covered, the slender and soft waist can't be covered, even the bulging breasts, if you dance faster, I'm afraid it won't be able to cover it.
The business done by Tianyin Pavilion is calculated in 10,000 taels, but these beautiful dancing girls raised are too "poor", so poor that they are not clothed and skinny.
Lin Xiuran was distressed when he looked at it, and decided to show mercy to help this group of poor women.
So he laughed and said: "Old Pavilion Master, your Tianyin Pavilion opens the door to do business, then whether these dancing girls are sold or not, I think it's very good, let them enter my Rongguo Mansion in the future, and dance for me." ”
Everyone in the hall immediately burst into laughter when they heard Lin Xiuran's words.
The more than ten beautiful dancers listened, but their dancing postures couldn't help but stagnate, as if time had stood still. One was so timid that he almost fell to the ground.
This caused another burst of laughter.
The person in front of him is really the son of Zhen Pu in the Rongguo Mansion, and he is the only one who is so shameless.
The old pavilion master was a fat old man with a full beard, his beard was black and white, but his hair was all white, sitting on the main seat, his fat body was like a ball of meat.
Of course, whoever thinks that he is really a meat ball with limited mobility is likely to be really kneaded into a meat ball by his Tianyin Divine Skill.
He listened to Lin Xiuran's words, and he was helpless.
But even if he is half a businessman, he naturally can't say that the customer is not, so he has to laugh and say: "If Zhen Gongzi likes it, when this auction is over, I will choose one or two outstanding ones and send them to Zhen Gongzi's house, which will be regarded as an addition to this auction." What does Zhen Gongzi think?"
Lin Xiuran took a sip of wine and said with satisfaction: "That's naturally the best, this son is here first, thank you to the old pavilion master." ”
The old pavilion master waved his hand and said no.
He exchanged a few more words with Lin Xiuran before going to talk to the others.
In the hall, the sound of silk and bamboo, dancing postures, staggered, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves for a while.
......
According to the previous agreement between Lin Xiuran and Miss Mingxin, after entering Tianyin Pavilion, Lin Xiuran should do what he should do, eat, look at the auction lots, and be his honorable son of the Rongguo Mansion.
And Miss Mingxin, after entering Tianyin Pavilion with the help of Lin Xiuran's identity, how to act and when to act are all up to her.
As for whether things will succeed or not, it all depends on herself, not Lin Xiuran's business.
In Lin Xiuran's opinion, it was wise for her to choose this time to do it.
Although it is also the time when Tianyin Pavilion is most heavily guarded, the guards of Tianyin Pavilion will focus their guards on the banquet hall, and the treasury will be relatively weak due to the transfer of guards.
In this way, she is not completely without a chance, although she is still nine deaths.
At this moment, she should be hiding somewhere in this Tianyin Pavilion and waiting for an opportunity!
For this woman who has a kiss with him, Lin Xiuran still hopes that she can succeed, and if she can, he will also help her.
Lin Xiuran looked at the roof, smiled, picked a grape on the table, threw it in his mouth, chewed it, and stopped thinking about these things.
The grapes taste good, and they are quite sweet.
When he wanted to pick another one, he saw a boy of the same age as him and walked over.
He was wearing a gorgeous crow blue robe, with a white jade pendant at his waist, and his appearance was quite ordinary, but he was a middle-aged person, but his eyes showed a bit of perseverance, which complemented the pair of eyebrows and eyes like a sword.
If Lin Xiuran guessed correctly, this son is his sworn enemy, the wind of the Feng family in Danyang City.
"Young Master Zhen, it's been a long time, how are you doing lately?" said the man.
"Hehe, this son, I see that your eyes are tight, I don't know who your name is?"
Although Lin Xiuran knew that the person in front of him was very likely to be windy, he had always been cautious and not reckless.
Moreover, he has nothing to do anyway, so it's not bad to cheat him.
"Hehe, it seems that Zhen Gongzi was in Fengming City, and he was frightened by the assassination outside the Seven Stars Qingfeng Zhai, and even I forgot about it. The man said: "In Xiabucai, Danyang City, the wind is thousands of miles." ”
Lin Xiuran glanced at him and knew that what he expected was not bad, the person in front of him was indeed a thousand miles of wind.
"Oh, it turned out to be the wind of Danyang City!"
Lin Xiuran pretended to be disdainful and teased: "I thought it was today, otherwise, no one would dare to send four dead soldiers so blatantly to kill me, the future Duke of Rongguo." ”
"Feng Gongzi, I have prepared a coffin at home, whether you have prepared it at home, I advise you to make some preparations as soon as possible, after all, you are prepared. ”
When Feng Wanli heard this, he saw neither anger nor panic, as if this matter had nothing to do with him at all, and he cleared himself.
"Did Zhen Gongzi think that what you did outside the Seven Star Qingfeng Zhai was done by my Feng family?"
"Why, isn't it? Feng Gongzi, you and I know it. ”
Lin Xiuran said: "The contradiction between you and me has been a long time, you and I have a feud again, and this time we are here for the same woman, I know that you want to find out who is behind the assassination of you, and you want to arrest her to extract a confession, but unfortunately, I also want to get the bright moon girl, let her two sisters, and have a flounder kiss with me." ”
"Since the contradictions cannot be reconciled, and the grievances have been accumulated for a long time, with your violent temperament, how is it impossible to assassinate you?"
Feng Wanli listened, but frowned, and said: "If it is according to Zhen Gongzi's reasoning, then I don't need to track down the mastermind behind the scenes, since my two families have a long-standing grudge, and you want to protect the assassin to the death, you must be weak-hearted." I can conclude that your Rongguo Mansion Zhen family is behind this assassination. ”
"Zhen Gongzi, do you think what I said is right?"
"Hehe, my Rongguo Mansion is boiling oil with fire, flowers are brocade, it is the time of prosperity, your Feng family is trapped in Danyang City, and you will occupy the mountain as the king, and be the second emperor of a country within a country, how can it be compared with my Rongguo Mansion?
Feng Wanli shook his head again and said, "Then according to what Young Master Zhen said, there is no need for me to assassinate you." Since my Feng family is now inferior to your Rongguo Mansion, then why should my Feng family seek their own death, send someone to assassinate you, and make your Rongguo Mansion an enemy? Isn't this hitting a stone with an egg?"
Lin Xiuran listened to Feng Wanli's words, thought for a moment, and felt that what he said seemed to have some truth.
It's just that after all, he has only been in Chen Guo for a few days, and he doesn't know how deep and complicated the grievances behind these gate valve families are, and it is not easy to speculate and judge.
He only said: "Feng Gongzi, I see that you don't have the surname 'Feng', you can speak like this, and your tongue is like a spring, it is better to change your surname to 'Starling'." ”
Feng Wanli is really good-tempered, after listening to Lin Xiuran's teasing, he just said: "Master Zhen, I didn't come to quarrel with you, on the contrary, I think we can cooperate!"
"Hehe, cooperation, do you think the Rongguo Mansion and the Feng family can cooperate?"
"Absolutely, as long as we have the same goal, we can. ”
Feng Wanli said: "What you want is the person who is Miss Mingyue, and what I want is the person behind the scenes in her mouth, as long as she says who instructed her, I will let her go, and I will not pursue her assassination of me, at that time, she will be your person, whether you are going to enjoy the blessings of Qi people, or to do the thing of the flounder kiss, I will not ask, how, Zhen Gongzi?"
Feng Wanli had to figure out who was behind this time.
He did not doubt that the Rongguo Mansion would be the mastermind behind this attempt, because of this assassination, the woman named Mingyue was too familiar with everything about his Feng family, and she knew everything about it.
This assassination was most likely done by his own Feng family, and he was staring at his position as the future head of the family.
What Feng Wanli is most afraid of is this kind of enemy who hides by his side and knows himself well, they are more terrifying than the enemy outside, like a knife around his neck.
The enemy is in the dark, and he is in the light.
If you don't pull him out and pull out this knife, one day, he will succeed.
This made it difficult for the wind to sleep.
It's a pity that he didn't wait for Lin Xiuran's answer.
Because, as soon as he finished saying that, there was a loud noise outside the hall, and then he saw a sky-high fire in the distance.
That seems to be the direction of the Tianyin Pavilion Treasury.
At the moment when the flames soared into the sky, Lin Xiuran, like everyone in the hall, rushed out of the banquet hall and went to the place where the incident occurred.
And on the main seat, the old pavilion master who was like a ball of meat, I don't know when, has long disappeared, and probably rushed towards the place where the fire shined.
