Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

Liu Feng Hui Xue traveled day and night, and finally arrived at the capital city on the night five days later.

The two found an inn called "Yingkelai", changed into young masters' clothes, each wore a half mask, fanned themselves, and went to a brothel called "Yue Weiyang".

This brothel is located in the capital, and is relatively small, but has some characteristics. Most of the women inside are talented, and they are good at poetry, tea ceremony, calligraphy, singing and dancing.

Therefore, it is well-known among literati and scholars and is considered an elegant place in the capital.

The reason why Shi Yi's mother was bought by "Yue Weiyang" was mainly because of her superb embroidery skills.

When the two of them arrived at the end of the moon, the elegant and beautiful sound of the piano came to their faces, like the gurgling of water or pearls falling on a jade plate, instantly giving people a pleasing feeling and a relaxing feeling both physically and mentally.

I was led into the hall by a servant. The small hall was almost full of people. Judging from their attire, many of them were scholars.

There is someone playing the piano on the stage. After the guests take their seats, someone will bring them a piece of paper on which they will be asked to choose the girl they need.

For example, various services such as playing the piano and staying overnight, singing songs and staying overnight, tasting tea and staying overnight, etc.

After filling it out, a servant will come to invite the guest to go to the place he wants to go and then choose a girl he likes.

Liu Feng wrote the words "see the madam" on a piece of paper, then threw a piece of silver to the servant and sat there waiting for news.

There was tea on the table, but neither of them drank a sip.

The lady once told me that when I go out, it is safest to drink the water I bring with me.

Soon, the servant came over quickly:

"Please, both of you."

Following the servant, the two walked through the corridor and went to the tea room at the back.

They were received by an old brothel owner who was in her thirties and still had some charm.

After serving tea and sending the servant away, the madam raised her eyelids and said, "I wonder if you two have something important to discuss with me?"

Liu Feng picked up the teacup, put it to his lips, and said two words: "Ransom."

The woman's eyes flickered: "Who is it?"

Hui Xue picked up the paper on the table and wrote the three words "Wang Xiaofeng".

“Leave this man here with me, so your master can rest assured that he won’t receive any guests and nothing will happen.”

Having said that, Liu Feng Hui Xue couldn't continue the conversation.

Before leaving, Liu Feng took out the banknote given by the young lady:

"With these five thousand taels of silver, please take care of Madam's food, clothing, shelter and transportation. Please!"

"Can we meet someone?" Hui Xue couldn't help but ask.

The madam drank a sip of tea, looked at the two of them, and said sincerely:

"The whole mansion has just been exiled and is still at the center of the storm. We have finally saved one person. I think it is better not to add to the danger. What do you think?"

Liu Feng and Hui Xue all bowed to her:

"Thank you for your consideration, young lady."

"You're welcome. I won't see you off!"

The two men left the tea room and were led by the servant back to the hall in the front yard.

Afterwards, the two listened to one more song, until they felt drowsy, and then returned to the inn.

In the middle of the night, the two changed into night clothes and visited "Yue Weiyang" again.

No matter what the madam said, the two of them would not feel at ease unless they saw the person in person.

It was curfew at night, so the two of them didn't dare to run and jump on the roof. They could only use the shadows on the ground, sometimes on the roof, sometimes in the alley.

When she arrived at Yue Weiyang's back door, Hui Xue accidentally almost stepped on a beggar who was sleeping there.

The two climbed over the wall and went to the backyard. When they came at night, they had basically figured out the layout of the room.

Although it was already the second half of the night, Yue Weiyang was still brightly lit.

When she reached the roof of the embroidery room, Huixue gently removed the tiles and looked inside.

There was only one light on in the room, and there were several unfinished embroideries in the room.

There were two women packing their things inside.

"Xiaohong, you said that the new girl Wang Xiaofeng is so old, why did our mother buy her?" said a girl who was tidying up teacups.

"You don't know this, do you? I went to the toilet late at night a few days ago and heard someone say that Wang Xiaofeng was entrusted by an old friend, so our mother accepted her. But she has a good personality and is very polite to everyone."

A little girl with twin buns blew out the candle, and the two of them walked out the door.

"Do you think she can receive guests?"

"No! Mom doesn't let her go out. She stays in that quiet courtyard every day."

After laying the tiles, the two men went to look for "still waters run deep".

Sure enough, in a corner against the wall in the backyard, I found the "Still Waters Run Deep" courtyard.

At this moment, the lights were still on inside.

"Madam, it's time to rest." A woman's voice came.

"Okay, you go to bed first. I'll go to bed after I finish these few stitches. I don't need you to accompany me."

"Yes, then I will go to bed first."

"Go."

People are gone.

Wang Xiaofeng looked around and said softly, "Come out!"

Liu Feng and Hui Xue looked at each other and shuddered.

"I know you are here. It was my daughter Shi Yi who asked you to come, right?" Wang Xiaofeng lowered her voice and said quietly.

The two of them climbed in through the window and knelt in front of Wang Xiaofeng: "Greetings, Madam."

"Get up quickly! How is Shi Yi? How is the prince? Are they still alive?" Wang Xiaofeng helped them up with both hands and tears instantly flowed out.

"We don't know either. Someone just asked us to deliver some money and pick you up at the same time." Liu Feng replied in a low voice.

Huixue had already gone to the door to watch. When she heard Liufeng's words, her back stiffened noticeably.

Wang Xiaofeng covered her mouth, nodded, and tears fell.

"How did Madam know someone was coming? And was it one of our own?"

Wang Xiaofeng wiped her tears and said:

"Shi Yi uses a kind of perfume powder with a very special smell. You also have this smell on you."

"The master asked us to pick you up. Let's go now." Liu Feng stepped forward and supported her.

Wang Xiaofeng quickly clapped his hands:

"I can't go with you for now. If I go to find her now, it will bring danger to her and the prince. Don't worry, I'm fine here."

Liu Feng took out the remaining five thousand taels of silver notes:

"Madam, this is what the young lady asked us to use to redeem you. Now you need it urgently."

Wang Xiaofeng couldn't help but shed tears again: "Wait for me, I have something to bring to her."

Running to the inner room, Wang Xiaofeng took out a bundle:

"These are some clothes I made for her and the prince when I was free. Please give them to her. I don't need the money. My mother came tonight and gave me two thousand taels, saying that they were sent by someone else. Could it be you two?"

Liufeng nodded.

There were footsteps outside, and two people hurried away with their things.

Dodging the patrolling soldiers along the way, the two returned to the inn.

After some discussion, Liu Feng decided to stay in the capital, rent a house, gather information, and then secretly look after the Dingbei Palace and protect the young lady's mother.

Huixue went back, reported the situation to the young lady, and then waited for her next arrangements.

Silent all night.

Its daybreak.

Hui Xue followed the first group of people out of the city and left the capital. But as soon as he left the capital, he felt that he was being watched.

He smiled evilly, "Haha, you dare to follow me?" In order to get the job of Miss Eleven's personal guard, I defeated hundreds of people in the gang.

He whipped the horse's butt hard, and the horse ran away wildly...
