Bright Spring

"How much does a girl usually charge for picking up a customer?" Zhu Gaoxu asked.

The woman softly brushed Zhu Gaoxu's face with the handkerchief in her hand, and said coquettishly, "Hey, does your lord look like a master without money? You can see how well the servants are serving you. You can give as much as you want, and the servants will accept everything." on."

Immediately, Zhu Gaoxu smelled a strong smell of powder and flowers, sweat and some unknown smells on her handkerchief, mixed together, it was very strange.

Chapter 26 Waiting for a Rabbit

Deep in the remote alley, in the dilapidated and deserted single-family courtyard, in this dim room, Zhu Gaoxu actually felt a sense of security and privacy.No matter how this woman is, Zhu Gaoxu feels that the place is a bit broken and the environment is quite good.

Zhu Gaoxu grabbed the woman's wrist, took her hand away from his lap, and said, "Have you ever met a guest with unusual hobbies?"

"Yo?" The woman's gaze rested on Zhu Gaoxu's face, "What unusual hobbies does Mr. Lang have? Let's talk about it first, the bones of the slave family can't stand unusual tossing, what kind of whip | use force I can't afford it, if the gentleman insists on doing this, the price has to be calculated, how long will it take for the servant to take care of me..."

"It's not so rude." Zhu Gaoxu said.

The woman sat up slightly, "Speak."

Zhu Gaoxu put his finger on his chin and rubbed it twice, then scratched the back of his head again, "Someone doesn't like to fight by themselves, but just wants to watch, especially peeping, and they can get great comfort."

"Ha!" The woman laughed, and suddenly stretched out her hand to reach out, "You lied to my family, isn't this a turning point?"

Zhu Gaoxu took the woman's hand away again, thought hard for a moment, and said, "Sister, have you ever heard of delay?"

"What?" The woman was stunned.

Zhu Gaoxu made a gesture with his hands, and said: "It's just that when it's cloudy and rainy, I can't complete the work, so I can only do it by myself while looking at the beautiful scenery."

The woman frowned: "What do you want to do when you come in?"

Zhu Gaoxu took out a handful of treasured banknotes from his arms and put them on the bed, "I hid in the side room, peeped at my sister's affairs, and counted five banknotes once, until I was satisfied. If the money is not enough, I'll make up for it before I leave. How about it?"

"Wuguan? Just look at it?" The woman asked in surprise.

This price is obviously very expensive. The carefully selected girls in Fule Yuan of the capital only use about four guan notes, which is considered the most expensive and luxurious place.In this dilapidated alley, the price as low as twenty or thirty yuan is not impossible.

Zhu Gaoxu nodded, keeping his posture low, "I'm also very distressed, it's not easy to be comfortable for a while, sister agree?"

The woman picked up the precious banknotes on the bed, counted them in her hands, looked carefully at the small window, turned her head and said with a smile: "Yes, isn't the slave's business of flesh and blood just to make men feel comfortable? But Mr. Don't make a sound, in case the guests notice it, I'm afraid of causing trouble."

"Sister, just rest assured." Zhu Gaoxu said.

Zhu Gaoxu got up and walked into the side room next to it. It was darker inside, and it was hard for his eyes to get used to it.After observing it, I found that there was a bed, a square stool, and nothing else in the small room.He turned around and closed the door, and bolted it again. Looking through the crack of the door, he could just see the head of the bed.

After waiting for a long time, the woman brought in a middle-aged fat man, not Zhang Xin.

Soon Zhu Gaoxu guessed the reason why Zhang Xin liked to come here.The woman's vigor was down to the bone, both her hands grabbing the sheets and her voice were exaggerated.Zhu Gaoxu panicked, and sometimes even worried that she was going to die, as if the long sigh was less than the breath, and it was released very openly, the sound was so loud that it could be heard outside the yard.

Presumably, this is what Zhang Xinhao said, and he doesn't like reserved women.Otherwise, there seems to be nothing about this place and this beauty that can attract a noble person to visit again and again.

Zhu Gaoxu was bored waiting for a rabbit, so he guessed that the kiln sister that Zhang Xin and Qi Tai were fighting with back then was probably the same type, maybe a little younger at most.Zhang Xin's hobbies have not changed.

After guarding for a whole half a day, Zhang Xin still did not come.Zhu Gaoxu settled down and planned to eat and live here, if you don't believe you won't be able to wait for him!

This difficulty is nothing to Zhu Gaoxu now.For a person of his birth and status in the previous life, what would it not be difficult for him to accomplish?

The light got darker, and the woman brought an oil lamp to the bedroom. The flame of the bean-sized lamp was still hazy in the room, and it was hard to see clearly.

Just when Zhu Gaoxu was bored, he suddenly heard a voice from outside saying: "Have you washed it? Add [-] Wen, hurry up and wash it!"

He hurriedly looked through the crack of the door, and saw a big man wearing a fur head and a gray robe, who was it not Zhang Xin?Zhu Gaoxu remained motionless and observed carefully for a long time until he was completely sure of that person.

He waited calmly, not in a hurry to disturb Zhang Xin.After a while, when the exaggerated noise outside subsided, Zhu Gaoxu stood up on the broken stool at the door.

Zhu Gaoxu grabbed the wooden door with his left hand, and gently placed his right hand on the latch.Suddenly, he quickly pulled the latch with one hand and opened the door with the other, and then jumped out. The whole process seemed to happen at the same instant.

"Damn it!" Zhang Xin was taken aback and cursed out. He had just put on a pair of shorts with a small nose, his upper body was naked, and then he opened his eyes and said, "Who the hell are you?" He picked up a pillow and held it in his hand, as if he was holding a brick, ready to smash it at any time.

"Ah!" The woman also exclaimed, but soon looked at Zhu Gaoxu with a look of mourning.

"My own!" Zhu Gaoxu immediately took out a gold inlaid waist card and held it out in front of Zhang Xin.

Zhang Xin glanced at the waist badge, then at Zhu Gaoxu, "You..."

Zhu Gaoxu turned his head and said to the woman: "You don't need to get back the money I gave you before. I know this guest before, can we chat for a while?"

The woman turned to Zhang Xin, Zhang Xin waved his hand, "Go out."

"Oh, oh..." The woman hurriedly picked up her clothes and escaped from the bedroom.

Zhu Gaoxu followed out, closed the hall door together, and walked back to the bedroom.Zhang Xin was busy getting dressed.

Zhu Gaoxu sat down on a wicker chair, "General Zhang, no one knows this place, it's impossible for others to see us, and it's easy to talk, otherwise the woman wouldn't have yelled so loudly just now."

"Huh!" Zhang Xin responded from his nose, and he just put on his clothes, as if he was in a panic and wanted to leave.

Zhu Gaoxu observed his progress in dressing, and raised his speech speed a little, "Does General Zhang know why I am looking for you?"

"Why?" Zhang Xin responded casually.

Zhu Gaoxu said: "I went to the capital with my two brothers last month. I heard the news that Qi Tai, Minister of the Ministry of War, is going to punish you to death. What has General Zhang offended him recently?"

Zhang Xin raised his head immediately, "Who did you hear from?"

Zhu Gaoxu said: "It's not just one person, people from the Governor's Mansion and several relatives of the emperor are talking, don't you know?"

Zhang Xin paused for a moment, frowned, and said nothing.

Zhu Gaoxu glanced at him, and said again: "An enemy's enemy can naturally become a friend. That's why my father chose General Zhang."

"Huh!" Zhang Xin uttered again, the meaning was unclear, I don't know what it meant.

Zhu Gaoxu didn't explain much, people in Zhang Xin's position must understand it very well.Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng are the main force of the faction to reduce the vassals. Of course, King Yan and Qi Tai are not on the right track, they can be regarded as enemies.

"Qi Tai sent General Zhang to Beiping, that's probably what he meant." Zhu Gaoxu said again.

Zhang Dao: "What do you mean?"

"General Zhang still doesn't understand such a simple truth? If something happens to Beiping, it's hard to say who will win in the end, but just in Beiping City, many people can't hide!" Zhu Gaoxu slowed down his speech, making Zhang The letter had enough time to understand the meaning, "Those people are those who were recently transferred to Beiping by the imperial court. Do you think they can play with my father in Beiping?"

Zhu Gaoxu paused, and said, "General Zhang once followed the father, you should understand who is strong and who is weak in the father's territory. You can't hide from the near-term worries in front of you, and you are still qualified to talk about long-term concerns?

Besides, even if you dodge, can Qi Tai stop there?Today's emperor listens to military generals or civilian officials. Can General Zhang beat Qi Tai? "

"Huh!" Zhang Xin uttered again, he had already dressed, and didn't answer anything, just said, "Farewell."

Zhu Gaoxu said behind his back: "This alley goes straight to Qionghan City. At the entrance of the alley, there is a restaurant with a signboard with the word 'bin'. If General Zhang has figured it out, come there and say to find Mr. Hong."

After Zhang Xin left, Zhu Gaoxu also left the yard. It was already dark, so he went to the wine shop he bought and stayed there temporarily.
