Lin Yuanqing followed Hong Er aimlessly on the street, Hong Er walked around, as long as he saw the storefront, he would go in and shop, no matter what business the other party did, although Lin Yuanqing didn't know, he could only follow.

Suddenly, Hong Er in front of him stopped and said, "This is it." Lin Yuanqing raised his head and saw a huge inn-like building, with an ebony plaque hanging at the door, and the three gilt characters of "Red Sleeve Rail" shining in the sun.

"Master, what kind of place is this?" Lin Yuanqing asked as he looked at the two tower-like strong men guarding the door.

"Well, Qinglou. Hong Er glanced inside the door and said.

"Ah?!" Lin Yuanqing was shocked.

"What a fuss, go, go in and have a look. After Hong Er finished speaking, he raised his feet and walked inside.

"Master, this kind of place like Qinglou is not something we should come to, right? . . I've heard from people that the women inside are frivolous and sick. Lin Yuanqing said with a sad face, standing in place and not moving.

"You're talking about a brothel, and I'm going to show you the world today. Hong Er turned his head to look at him and said.

"Master, this is not good. Lin Yuanqing still didn't move.

"Grind and chirp. Hong Er impatiently walked over and grabbed him by the shoulders and forced him in.

Although Lin Yuanqing resisted in his heart, he still had a trace of curiosity, so he didn't insist, so he walked in with Hong Er, and the big man at the door glanced at the two of them, and then looked into the distance with an expressionless face.

The space inside is several times larger than the general inn, the decoration is luxurious, the ground is paved with pale red granite, there are ever-bright lampposts standing next to several small rockeries, incense is burning inside, the smoke is filling, the smell is pleasant, there is a stream running through the entire lobby in the middle of the house, a small arched bridge above, the crowd is dressed in gorgeous clothes, or holding or side by side with a red pink, with a proud face of the spring breeze, but there is no messy scene that Lin Yuanqing imagined.

Lin Yuanqing looked around in surprise after entering the door, and at this time, not far away, a woman who was over half a hundred years old and wearing heavy makeup greeted them with small steps, and quickly shook the song fan and said with a smile: "Ouch, the two sons look at the face, it's the first time to come to our red sleeve bar, let me tell you, you have come to the right place, if our family says that they are second, no one dares to say that they are first." ”

"Well, when the two of us first arrived in Hangzhou, we heard the name of the red armband, and now when I see it, it really deserves its name. Hong Er said with a smile.

"Childe is really good at talking. The woman stopped at this point, staring at Hongji's severed arm with a smile on her face.

"Oh. Hong Er first froze for a moment, then smiled, took out the fifty taels of silver that the innkeeper had given them in the morning, handed it to the woman, and said, "We have just arrived, I don't know what to call it?"

"Hehe, the son is too polite, just call me 'Wang Po'. Wang Po quietly put the silver into her sleeve, and then said enthusiastically.

"Then how about having Mrs. Lao introduce us here?"

"This is natural, our girls here are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, blowing, playing and singing, elegant and vulgar appreciation, as long as the son thinks of it, we can be satisfied here. ”

Hong Er's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he let out a long "oh?" tone.

"Seeing that the son talks extraordinary, he must have seen the world, please wait a moment, Zelan, Xiangru, Shui Su, Lotus Heart, Ziyi. After Wang Po finished speaking, several women surrounded her, all of them had moth eyebrows, bright eyes and bright teeth, and willow waists and light yarns, Lin Yuanqing only felt a little dizzy for a while, and his eyes didn't know where to look, so he could only blush, staring at the ground with his head down, and several women covered their mouths and chuckled when they saw Lin Yuanqing's embarrassment.

"You have to entertain the two sons from other places. Wang Po smiled and said the word "foreign" in an aggravated tone, and then led everyone upstairs into the door of a house, and the women suddenly introduced Hong Er and Lin Yuanqing into the house.

After Hong Er sat down very naturally, seeing that Lin Yuanqing was deliberately surrounded by them and walking, it was not okay not to go, so he stood at the door at a loss, and Zou frowned and beckoned him to sit down.

Lin Yuanqing bowed his head as if he had been amnesty, and sat down beside Hong Er, which attracted a chuckle from the girls, and the oldest girl among the several people came over and poured a glass of wine for Hong Er and Lin Yuanqing, sat next to Hong Er and picked up the wine cup and said, "Two sons, Zelan will do it first as respect." After speaking, he put his sleeve in front of him and drank all the wine in the cup.

"Please. Hong Er picked up the wine cup and drank it all, Lin Yuanqing saw this, and hurriedly picked up the wine cup and tilted his neck to pour the wine into his mouth.

"I don't know what kind of hobbies Childe has?" Zelan smiled, and a blush appeared on his delicate face after drinking a glass of wine, which fascinated Lin Yuanqing who was secretly looking at her for a while, but then he thought of Chu Wan, and quickly shook his head vigorously, and his eyes looked away.

"I see that the girl's fingers are slender, and there are slight marks on the tips of her fingers, so she must have good piano skills, why don't you bother a few people to play a song for the two of us?" Hong Er first glanced at the four women standing at the door, and then fell on Zelan's face.

"Then our sisters will be ugly. Zelan stood up, and several people saluted Hong Er and them together, then walked to the Yaoqin in the side room and sat down, and the other people also took out the pipa, Qin qin, flute and other musical instruments in the side room, and sat down one after another.

"Does Childe have a favorite tune?" Zeeland asked with a chuckle.

"Don't bother, you can just play the song you always play. ”

"Then let's start with the song "Plum Blossom Introduction", please appreciate it. ”

"Please. Hong Er stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please.

Zelan stroked the strings with both hands, his wrists rose and fell, the sound of the piano sounded, and the interlude of the instruments behind him cooperated, the rhythm of the music was distinct, sometimes there was a sense of smoothness and lightness, and sometimes it was fresh and lively, Lin Yuanqing did not understand music theory, but felt that the music was beautiful and good, and secretly glanced at Hong Er, who held his chin with his hand, his brows were sometimes tightly locked, sometimes soothing, and he looked intoxicated.

After a long time, the music gradually slowed down, and after the song was finished, Zelan breathed a sigh of relief, raised his head and smiled: "Are the two sons still satisfied?"

Lin Yuanqing looked at Hong Er blankly, only to see him frowning and nodding slightly, but he didn't speak, didn't look at them at all, and seemed to be not very satisfied with their performance.

"Isn't Childe satisfied? Then let's change the song "Guangling San". Zelan also frowned slightly, looked back at his sisters, and a few of them nodded, and then began to play.

After a long time, the music stopped, Zelan looked up at Honger, only to see that he was still in his previous position, and when the performance was over, Hongji turned his head to look at them, and then his eyes looked away again.

“。。。 Zelan bit her lip, she was very confident in her piano skills, she had never seen a few literati and guqin masters before, although her level was not first-class, but she was also a leader among the women in the Qinglou, Lin Yuanqing didn't understand the rhythm, and it was natural that she didn't react, but she didn't know where Hong Er was sacred, she seemed to know how to do it, and she didn't react to her performance at all, did she meet a real master, thinking of this, she gritted her teeth, turned around and glanced at the sisters, planning to use a unique skill.

"Childe, listen up. As soon as the words fell, everyone began to play, the music was high-pitched and the rhythm was clear, Lin Yuanqing heard that there was a refreshing feeling of manna after a long drought, halfway through, the rhythm was abruptly slow, and there was a hint of femininity and tactfulness.

After a while, Xiu Hand lightly pressed the strings, and the music slowly subsided, but Lin Yuanqing still had a feeling of lingering sound, intoxicated.

"Can this song still enter the ears of Childe?" Zelan stared at Hong Er tightly, trying to know the other party's thoughts from his expression, but Hong Er still didn't say it, still frowning.
