The Prodigal Son of the Empire

Obviously, this approach is far more stylish and upscale than those places in the market where you spend money directly.

Of course, it is possible to do this because the beauties in the Manxiang Pavilion are all outstanding, with stunning skills. They may be the top figures in other pavilions, but here they are only at an ordinary level.

Wang Kang searched his memory, and it was precisely because of such a rule that the unlucky people did not come here many times, because it was not determined by the amount of money here, but by comparison of talent and learning.

The prodigal son obviously has no talent, and every time he comes here, he fails to become the beauty's guest, but instead adds a lot of jokes...

Not long after, there were waiters serving wine and tea, fried peanuts and beans and other dried fruits for food. Just these would cost [-] gold coins, which was quite expensive.

Wang Kang didn't drink alcohol, because the wine was really unpalatable, especially after he brewed the fine wine himself, the taste was tricky, and the wine outside was even more difficult to swallow.

Wang Kang drank tea alone and looked around, when he suddenly saw a pair of eyes staring at him fiercely, he was slightly taken aback, and then chuckled, because the owner of these eyes was Dong Hui.

This is the son of Dong Cishi, the second generation of Yangzhou's most senior official who was tricked by him.

Goodbye to Wang Kang Dong Hui was indeed very angry. He beat the supervisor that day, and then uttered disobedient words under Wang Kang's calculation.

He was beaten by his father in full view of everyone on the street, and he was severely punished after returning home. He was directly locked up and not allowed to go out at will.

Today, Dong Yiwu, the governor, went to Fengxin County on business, so Dong Hui took the opportunity to escape.

After holding back for a few days, I came directly to Manxiang Pavilion, unexpectedly meeting Wang Kang here?

Dong Hui blamed Wang Kang for the extraordinary things he did that day, and he hated Wang Kang to the bone.

Since we met today, we must retaliate, and at worst, we will lose face.

Thinking of this, Dong Hui said directly: "Isn't this Young Master Kang? Why do you have the leisure to come to Manxiang Pavilion today? Could it be that you still want to use money to buy Miss Xie's first night right?"

As soon as Dong Hui said this, everyone present turned their attention to Wang Kang, and immediately burst out laughing.

This is an embarrassing thing that Wang Kang has done before. Miss Xie is a beautiful woman in Manxiang Pavilion.

But Miss Xie admired talented people more, and paid no attention to money. That day, Wang Kang drank alcohol and was not selected as the guest of honor, so he thought about throwing money at him just for a kiss.

The final result can be imagined, Wang Kang did not get what he wanted, he touched his nose and didn't say anything, but was ridiculed by a romantic talent present with a poem.

"The sky is full of hype to show off its ability, just like floating clouds with no future."

Wang Kang recalled this poem, and frankly said that this poem is really well written, and the antithesis is neat and profound, but it is a poem used to satirize himself.

This incident became a good talk of the poet and Wang Kang's biggest joke.

Being ridiculed by people writing poems and disgusted by his admirers, Wang Kang was in a bad mood. Liu Cheng took this opportunity to lure Wang Kang to release paper kites in the rain to soothe his emotions.

Wang Kang didn't think much about agreeing directly, and eventually he was struck to death by lightning.

The memory in my mind became more and more profound, and those mocking faces came into view...

Wang Kang looked around and quietly clenched his fists!Let those who mocked me and despised me pay the price today!

Chapter 31 Shen Linfeng

Seeing that Wang Kang was silent, Dong Hui said loudly again: "I heard that there was a saying in Yangzhou City a few days ago!"

"Young Master Wang will pay for all the expenses in the audience tonight!" Dong Hui smiled, "I don't know if this will work or not, or let Young Master Kang spend the money tonight, and invite us as well. I don't mind at all!"

"Haha! Young Master Kang please!"

"That's right, no one knows the name of Young Master Kang as a rich man, this trivial matter is not worth mentioning to Young Master Kang!"

"........."

Immediately there was a burst of laughter in the hall, accompanied by a lot of noise. Those who can enter and leave here are either rich or expensive people, so it is not bad for this kind of consumption.

They made such flattery firstly to take care of Dong Hui's face, after all he is the second son of the governor, and secondly they also wanted to see Wang Kang's jokes.

Wang Kang seemed extremely indifferent, and was not angry at Dong Hui's words. He said calmly, "I said, Second Young Master Dong, do you still want to fight me?"

Hearing this, Dong Hui's face instantly became extremely ugly. That day, Wang Kang pulled him off his horse and beat him up, which left a deep impression on him, even a shadow.

Who is Dong Hui, but the second son of Lord Inspector, who is disrespectful and respectful on weekdays, let alone touch his hands.

But Wang Kang was the first one who dared to do this, so Dong Hui was at a loss for words when he heard Wang Kang's words, and really didn't know what to say.

After all, he is just a second-generation incompetent official, and he is far behind his elder brother Dong Gan.

The hall was quiet for a while. Although the matter of Dong Hui being brutally beaten by Wang Kang in the street was dealt with in a low-key manner by the governor, there were still many people who knew about it.

"Hey, it's really lively tonight!" Just then a laugh came in.

Wang Kang looked around, and saw a handsome young man walking in at the door. This young man was young and handsome, with sharp eyebrows and sharp eyes, sharp-edged face, and neat hair on the sideburns.

He held a folding fan in his hand and swayed it lightly, looking suave and romantic.

"Ah, is Mr. Shen here?"

"Mr. Shen's coming here really makes the Manxiang Pavilion flourish."

"Hey, it seems that Lord Yelang is Mr. Shen again tonight!"

As soon as this person entered the door, many people stood up and hugged their fists to greet him. It could be seen that he was extremely popular.

"Haha, thanks to everyone's care, today is Miss Xie's appearance, so I naturally want to come." Mr. Junlang smiled and clasped his fists.

Miss Xie is the number one noble lady in the Manxiang Pavilion, she is enough to be called a stunner in the world, she was in the second place in the oiran election the year before last due to a little bit of luck, and since then she seldom shows up.

And tonight is Ms. Xie's solo show. Ms. Xie is the only one to show up, and she chooses the guests by herself. If she is lucky, she may even get her first night directly.

And the name of this handsome son is Shen Linfeng. He is extremely talented and knowledgeable, and he is highly praised by talented scholars and beauties in Yangzhou City because of his suave manners and knowledge.

Hearing the praise from others, Shen Linfeng clasped his fists and said modestly: "Where is it, Miss Xie is the favorite poem and prose sentence, but Shen is only a little literary, it is not known whether he will be favored by Miss Xie!"

Although he spoke modestly, there was no hint of modesty in his brows, but rather a sense of arrogance.

Under the leadership of Guinu, Shen Linfeng was about to take his seat, but Dong Hui's eyes lit up when he saw him, and he stood up hurriedly and shouted: "Why should Mr. Shen sit alone, there is still space on my side. Wouldn't it be nice to sit and drink with me?"

Hearing Dong Hui's invitation, Shen Linfeng was also a little moved. He is famous for his talent, but he only comes from an ordinary family with a shallow background. If he wants to develop in his official career, he needs to find a backer.

The governor Dong Yiwu is undoubtedly the biggest backer. The last time he wrote a poem to mock Wang Kang, it was actually just to get Dong Hui's attention, because he clearly knew that Dong Hui and Wang Kang were not on the same page.

As long as he can gain Dong Hui's trust, he will have a chance to be appreciated by his father Dong Yiwu with his clever means.

It was really useful to make a poem to mock that prodigal son last time, but Dong Hui took the initiative to invite him as soon as he showed up, and Shen Linfeng was secretly happy.

But on the surface, he held his fists and said politely: "How can Shen be invited by Dong Er Shao, just sit alone."

He waved his hands, a look of refusal.
