June [-]th is an auspicious day for everything.
There are indeed many good things happening in Jinling City today.
On this day, the government government opened a warehouse to release grain, and set up a porridge shop in the south of the city, all of a sudden solving the urgent need outside the city.On this day, the Jinyiwei from Chang'an also thoroughly investigated the rice and grain shops in Jinling, and suppressed the inflated grain prices. Now the traders can only charge [-]% more than before the disaster. Even if it is still not cheap, they are no longer common people. They can't afford it anymore.
Moreover, Mr. Jun, who built the embankment in the north of the city, also posted a notice to recruit laborers from the private sector in the south of the city to build the embankment in the north of the city.The money is settled once a day, although it is not rich, saving up for two days can still feed the whole family.
For a time, Jinling City was full of vitality.
And on this night, Chunshui Lane in the south of the city was decorated with lights and festoons.
Before it was dark, a flower building in Chunshui Lane was already surrounded by people in brocade clothes and fine clothes. The entrance fee had been doubled, but there was still an endless stream of people coming.
Jun Huailang followed Xue Yan out of the carriage, and what he saw was this grand scene.
There were lights and festoons in front of the flower building, and colorful lanterns filled half the street.There are colorful silk sash hanging upstairs and the lights are bright.
The plaque is carved, with three big characters written on it, Qingyuefang.
"These merchants should be asked to hand in some food, gold and silver." Jun Huailang frowned, looked at the luxurious and gorgeous decoration, and said. "Why are you still enjoying yourself so much in the face of adversity?"
Xue Yan laughed softly beside him.
"Okay, let them pay." He said.
Jun Huailang withdrew his gaze and looked at him suspiciously: "What are we doing here?"
Ever since Xue Yan said that Guo Rongwen's embezzled money had a place to go, he refused to tell him anything. Until today, he specially went to the construction site in the north of the city to take him away, and brought him here.
Xue Yan raised his hand and made a "shh" motion in front of his lips.
Jun Huailang stopped in doubt.
Seeing Xue Yan lift his chin towards Jin Bao, Jin Bao hurriedly stepped forward and called the old bustard who was soliciting guests at the door.
The old bustard had a piece of treasure, his face burst into a smile, he immediately handed over the gate to other people, went up to meet him in person, and blessed Xue Yan gracefully.
"Master, you're here!" The old bustard looked old, but his charm was still undiminished, and he smiled affectionately.
Xue Yan glanced at her.
The old bustard covered her lips with a smile and said, "Master, everything has been arranged for you, just take care of yourself."
As she spoke, she led the way and led the two of them up the stairs and into a private room.
One wall of the elegant room is full of windows. At this time, the flower window is wide open, facing the stage in the middle of the downstairs, with an excellent view.Leading the two of them to sit down in front of the window, the old bustard read the tea himself and placed it beside the two of them.
"Go down if you have nothing to do." Jin Bao stepped forward arrogantly and ordered.
The old bustard quickly responded, leaving two servant girls to wait on her, and then retreated.
Downstairs was bustling with people, and the huge hall was already full of people.
Just like that, people continued to enter the building one after another.Several tables have been added, and they are densely packed, and it is a bit difficult to pass through the middle.
Jun Huailang withdrew his gaze, looked at Xue Yan, and saw Xue Yan was drinking tea slowly, smiling at him.
Jun Huailang vaguely understood what he meant.
"You mean...?" He cast an inquiring look at Xue Yan.
Xue Yan put down his teacup, nodded, and looked at him with a determined smile, like a wolf eyeing its prey.
"I'll let you see where Guo Rongwen's greedy money went."
-
As the sky darkened, a drum sounded on the stage, and the four seats suddenly fell silent.
Jun Huailang looked out, and saw a long silk ribbon hanging from the top of the pavilion, followed by a woman in a moon-white gauze, holding a pipa in one hand and a ribbon in the other hand, floating in the air. Down.
The ribbon was intertwined with the woman, and for a moment, the sleeves of the clothes fluttered, the gauze danced gracefully, and the petals all over the sky rustled and fell onto the stage and the banquet.
With a bang, the woman landed on the flower drum in the middle of the stage.
She turned her back to the crowd, her black hair was tied into a high bun, revealing her snow-white and slender nape.She has a particularly graceful figure, with a willow waist wrapped by Yuesu, which is no more than the width of a palm and not enough to hold.
The strings of the pipa sounded, and the woman danced on the flower drum with her back to the crowd.
She has a graceful figure and dances gracefully, playing the pipa in her hand, and the dance steps under her feet are beating drums, one by one, as if stepping into the heart of a person.
All the people present were infatuated, Jun Huailang also stopped his teacup, looked at the stage through the flower window.
This woman is indeed rare in the world, such piano skills and body skills must have been practiced hard since she was a child.I think it took a lot of effort to train her in the building.
Could it be that Guo Rongwen was greedy for money from ink, and would use it to exchange this woman?
However, he has been with Guo Rongwen for a year and a half, and he knows that although this person hides harmful intentions, he is not a person who goes in and out of brothels and restaurants.Did Xue Yan use some method to attract him?
But it's too ostentatious to exchange money with such a big fanfare, presumably he wouldn't do that...
He stared at the woman in a daze, and his mind had already wandered elsewhere, thinking about it in a daze.
He didn't notice that the person next to him, who hadn't looked at the stage from the beginning to the end, gradually had something wrong with his gaze.
Suddenly, the woman beat a drum and sang four strings, embraced the pipa, moved her waist, and turned around slowly.
Immediately, the men in the audience stretched their necks.
Jun Huailang didn't notice what was going on on stage at all, his gaze was fixed there, still wondering how Guo Rongwen would pay to photograph the woman on stage.
Suddenly, his eyes went dark.
Immediately afterwards, Jun Huailang heard excited exclamations from downstairs.The flower building, where the needles could be heard just now, suddenly boiled.
Jun Huailang froze for a moment, only to realize that there was a hand tightly covering his eyes.He blinked for no reason, and when his eyelashes brushed the palm of his hand, Xue Yan's voice was a little hoarse, and he warned fiercely: "Don't move around."
Jun Huailang froze for a moment, but closed his eyes.
"What are you doing covering my eyes?" He was a little dumbfounded.
Xue Yan, who was covering his eyes, glanced at the audience with an ugly expression.
At this moment, the people in Hualou are going crazy.
Today was the first time that woman named Yu Jing showed her face on stage.She held the pipa in one hand, took off the veil on her face with the other hand, and threw it to the audience.
Immediately, that stunningly gorgeous face was exposed in front of everyone.
Everyone in the audience exclaimed, and the small group of guests who were close to him rushed to grab the veil.
Xue Yan glanced at that gorgeous face, which was so captivating at a glance, and turned his gaze back with a dark face.
But what's the point of dancing with your waist twisted? It's worth Jun Huailang staring at the woman all the time, even holding the tea in his hand for a long time and forgetting to drink it.
Xue Yan's mouth was sour, and his brows were tightly wrinkled.
Jun Huailang didn't wait for Xue Yan's response for a long time, raised his hand to pat the back of his hand, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Before Xue Yan covered his eyes, it was a murder scene.But listening to the movement in the audience at this time... there should be no dead people, right?
Then, he heard Xue Yan's fierce voice.
"What catches your eyes."
-
When Xue Yan finally withdrew his hand covering his face, the girl dancing on the drum was no longer on the stage.
Only the bustard who greeted them just now stood in front of the stage, smiling charmingly.
"Guest officials, our Yujing girl danced and showed her face. Next, it's up to the guest officials to cheer for the girl." She said with a smile.
Jun Huailang looked out the window and saw everyone downstairs was gearing up.
Everyone has a small card with the guest's name on it. It has two sides, one is red and the other is green.
The old bustard said that for the first night of the girl in Yujing, the starting price is 500 taels of silver, the price of green is increased by 200 taels, and the price of red is increased by [-] taels.Everyone bids, and the highest bidder in the end can go to Wushan with Miss Yujing tonight.
Jun Huailang was born in Chang'an since he was a child, and the etiquette has always been strict. Even after staying in Jiangnan for a year, he has never seen this kind of auction.
But the wealthy businessmen and dignitaries in the south of the Yangtze River downstairs seem to have already mastered this method.
Immediately, there were calls of bidding, and it didn't take long for the 500 taels to be raised to 3000 taels.
When it reached 3000 taels, the voice of asking for the price gradually faded away.
No matter how beautiful Yujing was, she was only a woman. Buying her for a night with several thousand taels of silver was not something ordinary people could afford.
What's more, Qingyuefang said that if the price is increased by ten times, Yujing can be redeemed. 3000 taels doubled ten times, it is 3 taels.Buying a brothel girl at such a sky-high price, few ordinary wealthy businessmen have such financial resources.
Gradually, the voice of bidding stopped at 500 taels.
Just then, a rather familiar voice came.
"Three thousand, seven hundred taels." The man's voice was full of complacency.
Jun Huailang was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly looked down the stage.
The person sitting there holding up the placard was obviously Xu Cong'an.
Xue Yan said that Xu Con'an was the young master of the Xu family in the capital, and also the only grandson of Xu Xiang.
So, what Xue Yan wants to catch today is not Guo Rongwen, but Xu Cong'an?
Jun Huailang immediately understood.Guo Rongwen took such risks and anxiously coveted such a large sum of money, just to give to Young Master Xu, so that he would have the money to buy this oiran.
In this case, the evidence of Guo Rongwen's corruption and the whereabouts of the stolen money are all clear.
Jun Huailang looked at Xue Yan, and saw Xue Yan slightly curled his lips at him.
I saw that his amber eyes were full of smiles, showing off a bit, wild and tame, looking like a big wolfhound wagging its tail at its master for praise.
Jun Huailang suddenly wanted to raise his hand to touch his head.
At this moment, the voice of the bustard came from downstairs.
"Mr. Xu bid 5000 taels! 5000 taels, is there any official who wants to bid?"
Jun Huailang glanced sideways and looked intently.
It turned out that the businessman who paid 500 taels just now competed with Xu Cong'an for a while, but was still defeated.At this time, Xu Cong'an sat in the banquet with his chest upright, looking like he was sure of winning.
And the guests around have stopped making any noise.Everyone clapped their hands, only saying that today, Miss Yujing's famous flower will fall on Mr. Xu's head.
The bustard yelled a second time.
There was still silence all around.
The smile on Xu Cong'an's face couldn't be hidden.
At this moment, Jun Huailang saw Xue Yan put down the teacup.
The slender and powerful hand lazily held the small card on the table and lifted it smoothly.
"6000 taels."
In the flower building where needles could be heard, Xue Yan's deep voice sounded.
Jun Huailang looked at him in surprise.
There are indeed many good things happening in Jinling City today.
On this day, the government government opened a warehouse to release grain, and set up a porridge shop in the south of the city, all of a sudden solving the urgent need outside the city.On this day, the Jinyiwei from Chang'an also thoroughly investigated the rice and grain shops in Jinling, and suppressed the inflated grain prices.
