rebirth will be hard to find

The oiran of Ningxiang Pavilion is elected once a year, which is not so rare, but it is also a lively event.

Chu Yi and Cheng Zian didn't come here to watch the excitement, but at this moment, they had nothing to do except to watch the excitement.So after thinking about it, I still didn't close the window again, just as a way to join in the fun and learn a lot.

Cheng Zian didn't care about the oiran meeting on the high platform, he let the bustard talk wildly on the stage and didn't take a second look at the high platform.Her eyes flicked across the lobby on the first floor and the boxes that could be seen on the second floor, using her good eyesight to find out how many acquaintances there were.After all, it is impossible for her and Chu Yi to hide here for one night, and they still have to leave.

The lobby on the first floor had the most guests, but there were all kinds of teachings and teachings. Cheng Zian stared at it for a long time but couldn't find anyone he knew.On the other hand, many of the boxes on the second floor are the children of officials. They have neither too much money nor too little status, and they don’t want to be crowded with people on the first floor, and they can’t or don’t want to spend so much money to cover the third floor. box.

Cheng Zian looked over from one box to another, except for some blind spots, she found that at least three people in the boxes knew her.Chu Yi, on the other hand, stayed in the palace all the year round and didn't like to go to banquets to make friends with talents like Chu Zhao did back then. Most of these young people didn't know her.But in those invisible boxes on the third floor, there must be no shortage of people who know His Majesty the Emperor.

"What are you looking at?" Chu Yi moved the chair to Cheng Zian's side at some point, and sat side by side with her.

"Let's see how we leave in a while, there should be quite a few people who know you and me here." Cheng Zi'an replied without hesitation.

Chu Yi was a little depressed when she heard that, it was not easy for her to go out of the palace at night, not to mention she promised Cheng Zian that there would be no next time.Under such a premise, she didn't want to return without success at all, but Cheng Zian was already thinking of a way out.

During this question and answer, the old bustard's nonsense on the high platform finally finished, and the oiran meeting officially started.

Ningxiang Pavilion is the best Qinlou Chu Pavilion in the capital. Compared with other houses, Ningxiang Pavilion pays more attention to elegance - most of the women in Ningxiang Pavilion have special skills, and they always have the same arty skills.

And these need time to cultivate, so most of the girls here were bought and taught since childhood.When these women grow up to receive customers at the age of fourteen or fifteen, they will also be courtiers for a year or two, only performing arts but not selling themselves. When the reputation spreads, they will hold an oiran meeting. Everyone sold their first night together on this night.The difference between Oiran and others is only the price.

There are five candidates for the oiran today, all of whom are the most famous courtiers in Ningxiang Pavilion this year. Most of the many people who came tonight are for them.As soon as the old bustard finished speaking, suddenly someone clamored for them to come out.

This is also the process, and regular customers of Ningxiang Pavilion know it.Every year at the beginning of the oiran meeting, the candidates will all appear on the stage, and then each will show their abilities until the oiran is selected by the crowd, and then the oiran will choose the guest of honor tonight.Of course, the selected guest of honor cannot be without money.

The crowd clamored for the candidates to come out, and the whole Ningxiang Pavilion was extremely noisy, even Chu Yi and Cheng Zian, who didn't pay attention to it, couldn't help but take another look at the high platform.

The old bustard on the high platform held her head high, her face full of complacency, and was about to say something, but saw a young servant running up in a hurry, ignoring the people all over the building watching, and whispering in the old bustard's ear A few words.Then in the next second, the old bustard's blushing face sank at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he couldn't even hold back his smiling face.

"What happened?" Chu Yi was curious for a while, but he didn't want to get an answer.

Cheng Zian narrowed his eyes and said after a while, "Someone seems to have escaped."

Chu Yi was suddenly surprised, and couldn't help but widen his eyes and asked, "Can you hear whispers from such a distance?!"

Cheng Zian glanced at her when he heard the words, his eyes were full of helplessness: "Of course not, how could it be possible to hear it so far away and so noisy! It's just that when I was in Beizhou, I learned some lip language from the scouts in the army. Proficient, barely understandable."

Chu Yi felt admiration immediately when he heard the words, and his eyes were a little bright when he looked at Cheng Zian - Cheng Zian hadn't stayed in Beizhou for a long time, first he had to practice, he had to learn from Qi Yang, and later he had to fight desperately, She still has that time to learn lip language!

Cheng Zian's tone was affirmative, but the bustard downstairs obviously couldn't say such a slap in the face. After she waved the servant away, she smiled again, and said to the guests all over the building: "Please excuse me, Siqin today He Zhiqi is not feeling well, so he may not be able to come to the Oiran Club. But even if they don't come, Fudong, Nianxia and Mingxiang will show their strengths, and they will definitely not disappoint everyone."

As soon as the old bustard finished speaking, dissatisfied clamors from upstairs and downstairs suddenly rang out.

Chu Yi raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and said in surprise: "The oiran candidates for the Oiran Club actually ran away today, and there were only two of them if they ran away?!"

Cheng Zian wasn't very interested in these things, he glanced at the three graceful candidates on the high platform downstairs, noncommittal.

Chu Yi seemed to be interested, and she didn't know what she thought of, so she raised her voice and shouted to the outside: "Come here."

Anyi immediately pushed open the door of the box, walked in a few steps and asked respectfully, "What are your orders, master?"

Chu Yi slightly raised his chin towards the window: "Two of the oiran candidates from Ningxiang Pavilion ran away, so I found those two."

This order was abrupt enough, but An Yi listened to it as if he was just ordered to bring a pot of tea in, and he complied without the slightest bit of embarrassment.He waited for a while, and seeing that Chu Yi had no other orders, he saluted and retreated, closing the door behind him.

After Anyi left, Cheng Zian opened his mouth with some disapproval in his eyes: "What are you doing looking for those two people? Ah Chu, this is not the palace, and your people may be recognized by others, just like I recognized you." Same as Anyi."

Chu Yi's eyes rolled, and he replied with a smile: "It's okay, except for Anyi, everyone else doesn't often appear in front of people. There are also those two Qing people who chose to escape today. I always feel that they are a little different. "

****************************************************************************

When Siqin and Zhiqi were sent to the box, the situation was not very good.

Two weak women who can't lift their shoulders or lift their hands, even if they plan to escape tonight's chaos, it is obviously not so easy to escape the pursuit of those big and three rough guards in Ningxiang Pavilion.They ran out of Ningxiang Pavilion, but failed to get out of this street. They were quickly chased back by the nurse, and then they were whipped at the direction of the old bustard.

When Chu Yi and Cheng Zian saw them, they had obviously washed up and changed their clothes, but even so, Cheng Zian could smell the faint smell of blood, and the expressions on their faces were even worse. Pale without a trace of blood.

After sending Anyi and the guards away, Chu Yi sized up the two while playing with the folding fan in his hand.

Zhiqi faintly blocked Siqin behind her, she lowered her eyes slightly, pretending to be submissive, and said softly: "I don't know if the two young masters called us here, do they want to talk with each other or listen to the piano?"

It can be heard in just one sentence that these two people in front of them have much higher self-esteem than the Qin girl who led the way before.

Chu Yi didn't care about these, she just looked at the two of them with interest, and then said: "We don't want to play chess or listen to the piano, but I heard that you two ran away today while taking advantage of the Huakui meeting, and I was a little curious for a while. " After a pause, he said again: "Why do you run away?"

This remark is really straightforward and frank, but it is also a bit ridiculous to ask.

Zhiqi raised his head, and when he replied, his tone was still soft, but with some sarcasm: "Why did you run? You should ask, why don't you run. A place like Ningxiang Pavilion...why don't we run?!"

Chu Yi blinked, and seemed to realize that he had asked a stupid question.She glanced at Cheng Zian unconsciously. Cheng Zian obviously understood something, but he just looked at her without saying anything.So she turned her eyes to Siqin's face again, and asked, "Then let me change the question, why do you want to run together?"

Siqin kept her eyes down, and was unmoved by Chu Yi's question, but Zhiqi's eyes flickered unconsciously.

Before Chu Yi noticed it, Zhiqi replied, "In this Ningxiang Pavilion, only I have the best relationship with her. We don't want to be sold out tonight, so naturally we have to run together."

Chu Yi's eyes lowered slightly, and he caught a glimpse of the hands of the two women who were holding each other from beginning to end, and the arc of the corner of the mouth was meaningful.

Not long after, the old bustard came, and An Yi passed the message outside: "Master, the bustard from Ningxiang Pavilion is here, waiting outside the door."

When Zhiqi and Siqin heard this, their bodies tensed up unconsciously, and the hands that were holding each other were even more tightly clenched.

Chu Yi glanced at them and ignored them. She sat back beside Cheng Zian, and raised her voice and said, "Let someone come in."

As the voice fell, the door of the box was opened, and the bustard walked in with a smile on his face. Another middle-aged man was about to follow in, but was blocked by the guards.

"Oh, the two young masters look very unfamiliar. They are the first time to come back to Ningxiang Pavilion." The old bustard was not annoyed by the fact that the people who came with him were stopped, and his face was still full of smiles.She glanced at Zhiqi and Siqin at the side, and said: "The two girls Zhiqi and Siqin are not feeling well today, if there is any negligence, please invite the two young masters Haihan."

Hearing this, Chu Yi glanced at Zhiqi and the two of them. They didn't do anything after they entered the box, and they even replied stiffly.Seeing the old bustard appear, Zhiqi seemed a little regretful, and looked at Chu Yi with pity and begging.

The folding fan tapped on the palm of his hand, and Chu Yi shifted his eyes to the old bustard.The madam of Ningxiang Pavilion is actually not very old, but she is in her early thirties, with bright looks and charming temperament, worthy of a word of charm.But thinking about it, the method is so good that Zhiqi and the others are very afraid of her.

But such a character is obviously not worthy of Chu Yi's heart. She chuckled and said casually: "There is nothing wrong with them. I like them very much. I am going to redeem them from Ningxiang Pavilion."

As soon as the words fell to the ground, not only the bustard was stunned, but even Zhiqi and Siqin who had been silent all raised their heads, looking at her in disbelief.

Chu Yi smiled and said nothing, but judging by her demeanor, no one could take her previous words as a joke.

After a while, the old bustard tentatively asked, "Your Master, are you serious?"

Chu Yi nodded: "My son has a golden mouth, and he always counts what he says. Tell me, how much will it cost to redeem them?"

The old bustard looked at Zhiqi Siqin, then at Chu Yi, and then at Cheng Zian who was watching from the sidelines, always feeling that this redemption came unexpectedly.But she doesn't mind these things if she has money to earn. After thinking about it, she finally reported a number: "1000 taels!"

Without raising his eyelids, Chu Yi asked casually, "Two?"

The old bustard rolled his eyes slightly, and immediately replied, "One."

The smile on Chu Yi's face remained the same, but he didn't talk to him, but Cheng Zian, who had never spoken, glanced over coldly.

Just like Qinniang before, the bustard suddenly felt chills after being swept away by that gaze.Her knowledge is obviously wider than that of Qin Niang, and Dang even realized that the person in front of her could not be offended by herself, so she immediately changed her words: "Slip of speech, two of them, a total of 1000 taels."

In this way, before Zhiqi and Siqin could react, they had already been sold by the madam at a good price.And the person who bought them was this strange but rich young man in front of him.

Chu Yi made a gesture, and An Yi, who was guarding the door, came in immediately and gave the money, and then asked a guard to follow the old bustard to obtain the deed of selling Zhiqi and Siqin.

When the transaction came to an end, the bustard was sent out with the money. Once the door of the box was closed, there were only four people left inside.

Zhiqi was still a little dazed, Siqin, who had never spoken all this time, finally spoke, and she looked at Chu Yi with strange inquiry: "Why did you buy us, my lord?"
