After Meng Yile changed his clothes and tidied himself up, he was helped out of the prison by Dasong. As soon as he came out, he was almost blinded by the light outside. He felt that his eyes hurt a little, so he looked back at the prisoner behind him. Through the narrow entrance, he slowly lowered his eyes and said nothing.

Da Song pulled his clothes: "Master, what's so interesting about this unlucky place, let's go, the second master is still waiting for you in the carriage!"

Meng Yile was stunned for a moment, surprised: "Second father is here too? Why isn't his old man waiting for me in the mansion... No, since he is here, why didn't he go in with you?"

Da Song explained in a low voice: "It's not that the second master doesn't want to go in with the servant to pick you up. He has been busy delivering good words and money to the county magistrate of Yangzhou City. Otherwise, how could those black-hearted ghosts be willing to let you go!"

"The little county magistrate really dares to accept it?!" Meng Yile's eyes widened, with an expression of disbelief, he frowned and shook his head: "Impossible, Dali Temple Minister has just brought a pot of big corrupt officials who have corrupted the law, how dare he Upwind at this point?"

"There's nothing to be afraid of. They are officials, don't they know the tricks of hiding money and money laundering..." Dasong muttered, curling his lips unhappily, "The main reason is that they don't have anything against you, young master. If you really committed a crime, let alone the thousands of taels of silver, even gold may not be able to get you out!"

Meng Yile stopped talking, he patted Dasong on the shoulder, and sighed again.

"By the way, young master." Dasong called him again, and said in a low voice, "I didn't mention that white-eyed wolf surnamed Xie to the second master. I only said that you went to Baihualou to drink flower wine and were caught The one who was caught in the prison by mistake... The slave didn't dare to explain the whole story about Madam."

"You... did a good job. Let me explain these things to a few old people myself... Also, don't always call Mr. Xie a 'white-eyed wolf'. He is an official of the court, you call him that They will be arrested, put in a big prison and hung up, without food."

"Ah?" Da Song shrank his shoulders, then looked around in fear.

"Although in your opinion, he did such a thing as revenge and wolf-hearted, and it is normal for you to be angry, but he also wanted to investigate the case and punish corrupt officials. Considerate senior officials."

Meng Yile walked out step by step, he turned his head and smiled at the sullen Dasong, his peach blossom eyes suddenly lit up, "Besides, for a handsome and unrestrained young man like you, I'm afraid that the women in Yangzhou City will call for marriage every day. As for me, isn't it just that there is no wife, and when the master is free someday, I will find you another one!"

Da Song curled his lips, pulled his face and refused to smile: "I've been in prison for three days, and I still can't get rid of this nonsense..."

"What are you talking about! Are you looking for a hit?" As he spoke, he ran over and made a gesture to hit him.

Da Song was so frightened that he ran away, dodging while running, "Young Master, don't kick, the slave is wrong...Second Master!...Young Master, Second Master is looking at you!"

Hearing this, Meng Yile withdrew his feet in the next second, hurriedly stood at attention, turned his head and shouted flatteringly at the person in the car who raised the curtain: "Second father!"

The second master in the carriage had a gloomy face, and shouted at him, "He was so stubborn when he came out of the prison! He will not change after repeated admonitions, and he will not change! Come up to me! Immediately!" After speaking, he closed the curtain angrily.

When Meng Yile heard that he would go back home in the same carriage with him, knowing that there would be a lecture on the way, he turned his head and made a crying face at Dasong, and then responded with a smile: "Hey, thank you second father , I’ll come!” ran over and stepped on the low stool.

They didn't stay in Yangzhou city for long, the second master asked people to pack up their things in advance, and when they had time to pick up Meng Yile, they set off for the capital the next day.

On the way back to Beijing, Meng Yile didn't feel anything wrong, but when he really arrived in front of the Gu's mansion, he couldn't help it. His nervous palms were sweating slightly. He didn't know it was the last world where Father Han What's wrong with Han's mother's fright? Now when she heard that she was going to see Gu Minglang's parents, her back felt cold for no reason.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Meng Yile got out of the car, he looked up and saw a super-imposing house. Two tall stone lions sat majestically on the ground, guarding both sides of the gate, with double eaves on top of each other. The two characters are glittering with golden light, faintly reflecting the light of treasure under the sun.

Meng Yile: 【I remember that Gu Minglang's family is very rich. I guess the inscription on this plaque was affixed with gold! 】

432: [I was bored, so I appraised it for you, yes, 9999 pure gold! 】

Meng Yile: [Wow, I must take two gold bricks with me when I leave! 】

432 patted his head: [Hurry up and get out of the car, your mother and your father are out! 】

Meng Yile nodded obediently: 【Oh. 】

Meng Yile stepped on a low stool and got out of the carriage, resisting the urge to rub his sore buttocks, and looked at the three people standing in front of the Gu residence with a smile, "Father! Mother! Second mother!" Stepping up the stone steps, he grabbed the hands of the two mature women beside him.

Meng Yile: 【My mother and my second mother are so young! !Oh my god! !This doesn't look like a mother, it's a sister at all! ! 】

432: [Don't get excited, don't get excited, marriage was relatively early in ancient times, your mother was 16 years older than you, and your second mother was 13 years older than you. 】

Meng Yile: [Oh my god, Gu Minglang is 20 and hasn't married yet, so this is considered late marriage and late childbearing! 】

432: [Do the math, stop chatting, hurry up and act! 】

"Hmph! You know how to come back! I think if you don't come back, you can tear down the prison in Yangzhou!" Master Gu had a cold face, and when he came up, he was reprimanded, scaring Meng Yile to rush to Gu Niang and Gu Er. The mother hid behind her.

Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Gu hurriedly protected Da Wan Gu behind her back, but they all had gentle smiles on their faces, and they didn't confront the angry man head-on. This is called using softness to overcome strength.

Meng Yile smiled and stuck out his head: "Father, don't be angry, I know I was wrong, so I'll go back to the capital to see you~"

Master Gu got angry when he saw him like this, blowing his beard and staring: "How dare you hide! If you get into trouble, you will hide behind your mother. I think she is used to you!"

Meng Yile pursed his lips, and retorted weakly, "A son's bad behavior is a matter of his own character, and has nothing to do with mother!"

"How dare you talk back!"

"Okay, the journey is tiring, brother, don't be busy reprimanding him first, let's go back to the mansion first, rest for a while and then talk about it in detail." At this time, the second master also got off the carriage, and he heard it from a long distance away. The eldest brother was reprimanding this precious nephew again, and hurriedly rushed to break up the fight.

Master Gu, that's all.

The Gu family is not a big family, and there has been no big movement, but in the past two years, there has been a puff of smoke from the ancestral grave.

Gu Minglang's grandfather was a minor official of the sixth grade. He had been in the officialdom for a few years and neither gave gifts nor accepted bribes. In the middle of it, he simply resigned to start a business. The tree moved to death, and the people moved to work, which really made him a good fortune.

In the generation of Gu Minglang's father, the business was so big that his family's branch was opened in the whole south of the Yangtze River. Gu Minglang has one male and two daughters, and there is no other male besides the three daughters in the Second Courtyard.

The two masters of the Gu family are infatuated people, and they don't want to marry more wives and concubines. They only marry a wife and live behind closed doors.Everyone said that Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Gu were so lucky and enviable. Many rich families with daughters in the capital took a fancy to the man of the Gu family and wanted to marry his only son, but who would have thought that Gu Minglang would marry him? In this generation, however, a big reversal has come, and everyone has become a well-known romantic young master!

As for the only male in the Gu family, the two masters of the Gu family cherished it, but also made them worry—is it true that such a large family property of the Gu family will really be handed over to this prodigal son in the future!

The four of them arrived in the living room, waited for the servants to serve the food, and turned back around. Just halfway through, they heard Master Gu asking, "I heard that your wife was divorced by you?"

Meng Yile was biting a piece of pork ribs, he didn't even dare to chew after hearing this, he turned his head and looked at the second master for help, the second master lowered his head and focused on eating and ignored him, so he could only say vaguely: "Yes. "

"What's the reason?"

Meng Yile quickly swallowed what was in his mouth, and replied: "She doesn't mean that to me in her heart, and I don't like to force others to make things difficult for me."

Master Gu glared at him: "Nonsense! Why did I marry you when I didn't mean that?"

Meng Yile curled his lips: "I want to know too, Dad! You said that this person has no interest in me and you insisted on provoking me, but when I married him, he suddenly regretted it and forced me to sign the divorce letter... ...What's the matter! My son is also wronged!"

Seeing him cheating, Master Gu became a little angry again. What he was most worried about was Gu Minglang's unbelievable look: "After marrying you, there is a girl who asks you to divorce her life and death. What is the reason for her? It's because you're still restless when you're married, because of your notorious, notorious flirts!"

Mr. Gu hit the nail on the head and just hit the truth.

Gu Minglang was grinning, showing a row of big white teeth. He was not ashamed to be scolded by pointing his nose like this: "Yes, Dad, your analysis is really right! He said the same thing to me, it seems that Jiang is still old and hot." .Come, come, eat without talking, sleep without talking, eat more willow buds, and relieve the fire~"

Master Gu couldn't do anything about his trick, he was his own son after all, he said something to him angrily, and ate all the willow buds in the bowl.

Gu Minglang suddenly changed his temper. Master Gu and Mrs. Gu were a little frightened. Even the second master and the second wife ran to the compound to intercede for him, "Brother, the child made a mistake, of course discipline is to be disciplined." Yes, but you can't break up with him like this. You see, Lang'er is holding a book and reading all day long, and she is always in a daze. What should I do if I am really stunned!"

Master Gu was also worrying about this matter, but his face was still dark, and said: "He married and divorced without saying a word, it's not too serious to imprison him for a month and let him reflect on himself!"

At this time, the second lady hurriedly came up to make up a soft knife: "Brother, you don't know that Lang'er divorced his wife not voluntarily. I heard that the girl forced him to divorce his wife. He is already depressed, so don't you!" At this time, punish him to guard the small courtyard again, let him get in touch with the outside world more, and let him relax!"

Master Gu hesitated.

Seeing this, Mrs. Gu immediately shed a few tears: "If something really happens to this child, our Gu family...wouldn't it collapse?"

"Okay, don't cry, Dasong, go tell the young master that the confinement is cancelled!"

So the punishment for Young Master Gu's death was lifted up high and lowered gently, but Young Master Gu still stayed in the study every day, reading books, playing with flowers and plants, sitting in the yard by himself and looking under the trees. The swing was in a daze, and another day passed.

Everyone in the Gu family was a little anxious, desperately trying to find out something that Gu Minglang was interested in, and then, Gu Minglang's birthday came just like that.

It is said that there are old people in the family, and the juniors cannot celebrate their birthdays in a fair manner, so on this day, Mr. Gu turned a blind eye and let all his son's usual cronies come in, and the old man of his family was taken away. The dude took it out to have fun!

Where do you go for fun?This group of big dandies knows best, and they shouted one by one: "Brother Gu." During the day, they eat and drink enough, enjoy flowers and birds, and at night, they lead them into the biggest and biggest house in the capital. Flower House - Yihong Courtyard.

The corners of Meng Yile's mouth twitched as he looked at the three familiar characters on the plaque.

Meng Yile: [This name is almost used up, and it is said that its popularity is on par with "Yuelai Inn". 】

432: [Huh?I remember the name of the inn where the target of the raid and you had a rivalry for the first time. 】

Meng Yile was dumbfounded: 【Really?I did not notice! 】

432: To lie to you, a mentally handicapped person, you can be fooled as soon as you lie, it's really not a challenge.Spread your hands.

Meng Yile was dumbfounded and entered the gate of Yihong Courtyard with a group of his friends, then found a good place for "viewing the scenery", and sat down together.

"Today is the monthly "consecration" day of Yihongyuan. I heard that this time, the mother of Yihongyuan spent a lot of money to get a group of stunning beauties. She is determined to become the number one in the capital!"

"Brother Su is well-informed. Ning also heard a few words from Qingqing two days ago. These chicks are not satisfied now!"

"That's right, there are too many monks and too little porridge. Of course I'm not happy to add a few more predators!"

"It doesn't matter if you don't like it. I'm tired of watching those few people over and over again... Hey, hey, mom is on the viewing platform!"

Meng Yile listened to the discussions among the dandies, and was amazed in his heart. What is wrong with this group of second-generation officials and second-generation rich? After smelling it, before I could smell whether the wine was high-quality, I heard the sound of breathing around me.

Brother Su on the table sighed: "Beautiful! She really is a beauty!"

"It seems that the mother of Yihong Courtyard has really invested heavily this time, eh? Which one does Brother Su take a fancy to?"

"Third from the left is pretty good!"

"Ning, on the other hand, likes the fairy holding a pipa even more."

Looking at the high platform in the middle of the flower building, Meng Yile was stunned when he saw a row of pretty fairies in pink, green and blue.

It really is very beautiful. Once a woman puts on the flowing gauze dress, she will be like a fairy in the sky. She only feels that she will ride the wind and go away in the next second.

Just as he was dazzled and overwhelmed by what he saw, the beauties on the high platform were picked away one by one, the fairies on the high platform were sent down one after another, and the dandies who came with Meng Yile had already embraced Hugging right, only Meng Yile was alone, and the dudes advised him not to wait, just choose one quickly.

Meng Yile just quietly looked at the high platform in the middle, watched with great concentration as the last wave of beauties were selected away, and remained steadfast.

The middle-aged mother walked up to the high platform and said with a smile: "Everyone is blessed today. I have also prepared a grand finale this time, and I plan to give the men a feast for their eyes~"

Everyone urged her to take out the "play" quickly. When her mother clapped her hands, the sound of silver bells hitting came from an unknown place, as melodious as clear spring water playing. The woman in the red gauze sat on the step yu and was carried out by four people.

Seeing this, the people were unhappy and said:

"Take off the veil!"

"pick up!"

"Pick it up quickly!"

The red gauze woman on Buyu had a little coldness at the end of her eyes, she waited for everyone to gather enough curiosity, Wei Wei couldn't wait, and then gently raised an arm.

The wide and smooth gauze slipped down from the elbow, revealing the forearm like a white lotus root, which was more delicate and white against the bright red gauze.Her fingers were slender, thin and green, and she curled her orchid fingers lazily, took off the tulle on her face, lowered her head slightly with her eyelids down, and did not look at anyone.

Like a lonely swan in the lake, people are fascinated, but they dare not offend easily, for fear of staining her with the slightest bit of dirt, but because of her innocence, they can clearly see the dirty desires in their hearts, and just want her to follow her. They were completely devoured together.

She didn't look at people, but everyone looked at her holding their breath. For a while, the most beautiful scenery in the whole Yihong Courtyard gathered on the high platform in the middle. Everyone stared stupidly, and it took a long time for someone to react. Shout out.

When Meng Yile saw the red dress, he was already sitting on the seat in a daze - he didn't understand why his wife came to such a dirty place again, could it be that this time... was it also for handling the case? ?

Excitement, apprehension, joy, and tension were all intertwined in Meng Yile's heart for a moment. He thought to himself, today is his birthday, this... this may be a gift prepared for him by God after hearing his heartfelt thoughts for many days. Well, he lifted his arm with trembling fingers, and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "500 taels."

As soon as the young master of the Gu family spoke, everyone around them weighed their own fortunes and silently withdrew from the election. Of course, there were a few who did not know what to do but continued to raise their prices.

Gu Dawan didn't seem to care about money at all, when he heard someone raise the price, he immediately returned a higher price, and gradually the voices of the people decreased, leaving only Meng Yile and another man with a big belly.

Meng Yile didn't know who he was, but someone among the dandies on the table knew him, and said, "Isn't that a guest under the Third Prince's family?"

"You mean... the third prince who was driven to the northwest border?"

"That's right, it's him. My father took me to the third prince's banquet three years ago. This person is a guest in his house, but this person's attitude is extremely arrogant and domineering, and he doesn't take others seriously." , if it wasn't for that, I wouldn't be so impressed with him!"

"Hey, the third prince, who has always been elegant and handsome, would allow this kind of person to stay under his door?"

"That day... I vaguely remember that the third prince reprimanded him in public... I don't know what happened after that."

But Meng Yile didn't hear it, he was only focused on bidding, his eyes were glued to the red figure on the high platform, he raised his arms again and again, and spoke again and again, but he was eager to rush up immediately. , and asked the man if he had a good month, and if he... missed him after so many days.

He said "Lady" several times in his mind, and he didn't want to wait any longer, so he stood up suddenly, and the round stool fell to the ground with a muffled sound, the surrounding was silent for a while, and hundreds of pairs of eyes looked over.

Dandy didn't look at anyone, he still looked at the high platform in the center, and said coldly: "3000 taels."

Meng Yile continued: "Today is Gu's birthday. If anyone here is willing to give me some face, I will hand over this fairy today. Of course, there is nothing wrong with not wanting to. If anyone else participates in the bidding, Gu will automatically bid." Increase the price by 1000 taels, and my mother will send someone to Gu's mansion to collect the money. This fairy... Gu will make an appointment today."

As soon as he said this, everyone was silent for a while, but it became more lively. They only hoped that the arrogant man who bid with him would fight again. drank up.

Gu Minglang bowed in the direction of that person: "Thank you for your adult beauty!" As he spoke, he grabbed his folding fan and walked towards the high platform in the middle. He stretched out his hand to help the woman in red get off the step, and the two walked together Into a boudoir.

Only then did the stretched necks of the crowd retract slowly, and the fairy beside her began to drink the flower wine again.
