"Qinhuai Riverside Tai Tai has a tone of voice, the first time he comes to the door, he doesn't show up, he is coy, he is either testing his talent or asking about his family background, it takes him four or five times to meet and listen to a tune." Pei Huaixuan snorted, "It's better to be in the capital."

Song Yingbai understood what his brother meant. It was much simpler here in the capital, with power and power, so he went straight to first base. After all, there were too many bosses to offend.

At this time, they were sitting in the most famous courtyard of the Jiaofang Division, surrounded by a few young girls.

"Not necessarily. I also drank flower wine when I was in Nanjing. It's not that complicated."

When Pei Huaixuan heard it, he praised happily: "Good job, remember, never treat yourself badly. However, you are only drinking some bars, and I dare say that the place you go is also ranked by the Qinhuai River." Not on the number. It’s different now, look around, there are the most popular girls.”

Song Yingbai nodded in agreement, it was very ostentatious, the women were gorgeous and not vulgar, and their temperament was even very dignified, at first glance they thought they were ladies from everyone.

Pei Huaixuan drank half a glass of wine, and there was no need to hide between the brothers, and said bluntly: "Which girl do you want to keep?"

Song Yingbai was good-looking. As the saying goes, Chang'e loves young people and stays with him. The women present are also willing, and they all look at him with smiles.

He thinks it's a bit straightforward, it's okay to be happy, but it's too sudden to go straight to the last step, and he can't accept it, "This... this..."

Pei Huaixuan saw that Song Yingbai couldn't find anyone he liked by picking from left to right, so he whispered a few words to his entourage, and they went out, and soon brought in the madam and a little girl.

The bawdy introduced them to them beamingly: "Bosses, this is my youngest daughter Wanyu, who hasn't combed yet. If you don't mind, let her have a drink with you two."

The so-called combing is the first to treat guests, the price is not cheap, and usually they have to find a big benefactor, but Pei Huaixuan doesn't care about money, the madam can't wait to give her daughter to them.

Song Yingbai saw that the little girl was about 15 years old, with a pretty face, and it could be seen from the foundation of the facial features that she would definitely become a famous beauty in the capital in a few years.

Pei Huaixuan thought Miss Wanyu was pretty, with a good-looking appearance and an innocent body, perfect for her younger brother, so she asked the madam, "Can she play the piano?"

"She has mastered all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting a few years ago." The madam saw what Pei Huaixuan meant, and said with a smile: "My good daughter hasn't invited the young master to your room to listen to the music."

Wanyu said in a soft voice: "Young master, why don't you go to the servant's house and ask him to show you face."

Song Yingbai didn't want to go, but Pei Huaixuan raised his face at him, "The girl invited you, so you can go."

Song Yingbai just wanted to listen to the music, it didn't hinder anything, besides, as a big man, he can take the initiative, so what are you afraid of, lest you sit here and be stared at by your brother, feel like sitting on pins and needles, got up and said: "Madam Wanyu, please lead the way .”

Wanyu said softly: "My lord, please." Slowly leading the way, she went up to a room on the top of the building.

The room was not elegantly furnished, and there was a guqin in the center of the room. When the maids closed the door, she had a slight shame on her face, "Then Wanyu will show her shame." Sitting in front of the qin, the beautiful melody followed her fingers. Move, flow out slowly.

Song Yingbai listened quietly, and made up his mind that it was impossible to stay overnight. The girl hadn't opened her eyes yet, so she wasn't interested.

Suddenly, Li Zhen's words came to mind, Song Yingbai, do you really like women?

Nonsense, of course I like it?It’s just that he’s not interested in the one in front of him. If it’s a feminine one, he’ll definitely like it. Just as he was thinking about it, he heard noises downstairs.

He got up very vigilantly, opened the door and looked around, and saw several groups of people wearing flying fish suits in the downstairs hall at some point, and the leader among them was even arguing with the madam.

He had a feeling that something had happened, could a fugitive come in?But thinking about it again, he seems to have thought of something, closed the door angrily, and went downstairs. He not only knew the leader of the team, but was also a little familiar with him. It was Qian Zhong. When he was the captain, Been his boss.

I heard that he was recently promoted to the general banner. It seems that this time, the fifty or so people he led are all his subordinates.

When Qian Zhong saw Song Yingbai, he couldn't help but startled, "Song... Qianhu, why are you here?"

"Why are you here?" Song Yingbai asked back.

"I received the news that Jiangyang's bandits are hiding here, and I came here to seal it up. Did you also hear the news and come to arrest the villain?"

Song Yingbai suspected that Qian Zhong said this on purpose to give him a step down. Normal people knew that he was definitely not here to be an undercover agent, but to drink flower wine.

And at this moment, Pei Huaixuan said coldly behind him: "Who told you to come? Get out!"

Qian Zhong didn't know Pei Huaixuan, and it was very difficult for a low-level official to see Pei Huaixuan, so he said dissatisfiedly: "Dare to ask this person..."

Song Yingbai knew his brother's character, so he walked over and persuaded him in a low voice: "Brother, they want to investigate the case, it's not convenient for us to come here, so come back another day. And this person used to take care of me, let's not make things difficult for him."

Pei Huaixuan sneered, like a mirror in his heart, why didn't he come sooner or later, but he came when he was having fun with Song Yingbai.

Song Yingbai also thought of a suspect, but he could only say that Li Zhen had gone too far and even sent Qian Zhong here. If it was someone else, he might not be selling face, and Qian Zhong might not know the reason at all, so Song Yingbai couldn't embarrass him.

Pei Huaixuan said bitterly in a low voice: "I have given you all the money." But the younger brother pleaded for the other party, so he could only say: "Then let's go." After speaking, he left angrily.

Song Yingbai had no choice but to bite the bullet and chase after them. When the two walked to the door, Pei Huaixuan turned around and said angrily, "It was Li Zhen who did it! Who does he think he is?"

"Forget it, maybe there really is a case." In fact, even he didn't believe this sentence.

Pei Huaixuan sneered, "In fact, he is quite pitiful when you think about it. If you ignore him, he can only stop you with such trivial tricks."

Song Yingbai said: "He told me today that he would transfer me to the imperial prison to be your subordinate, and after a few days the order will be transferred, it will not be easy for him to see me."

"I already know. He's putting a long line to catch big fish and sell you favors. You can't think he's a good guy just because of this small favor. He's not a good guy."

Li Zhen is not a bad person, right? If he is not a good person just because he likes him, then Song Yingbai is also a bad person. He found that even though he broke up with Li Zhen now, he still couldn't help but say good things for him. have to change.

"...well... anyway, I won't talk to him."

Because of Qian Zhong's sudden appearance, the two had no choice but to go back home. Song Yingbai went back to his own residence, laid his head on the bed, and sighed, life is so awkward now, he doesn't like it at all.

And he doesn't like the current self, and he feels that he is not the original him.

Alas, everything bothers me.

The next day, Song Yingbai went to be on duty as usual. When he arrived at the Yamen, it was even better to meet Li Zhen riding a horse. He dismounted and asked him, "Song Qianhu, why is your face so bad? Didn't you rest?"

Song Yingbai smiled and said: "I didn't sleep well. I was going to drink flower wine yesterday, but I was interrupted halfway, but I was already aroused, so I found a maid to vent my anger when I got home, and I didn't sleep until midnight. , Alas, what a mistake to say, the filial piety period has not yet passed, what should I do if I have a child?"

"How many maids beat you before, and you didn't take a second look. Why did you suddenly find them pleasing to your eyes yesterday?"

Song Yingbai snorted proudly, "Probably there is something wrong with the wine I drank at Jiaofang. After drinking it, I feel warm and impulsive."

Li Zhen looked at him and smiled blankly, "You are very good to everyone, except me." After speaking, he quickly walked up the steps and walked towards the gate.

Song Yingbai originally thought that he should have the comfort of revenge, but unfortunately he didn't, instead his heart was empty.

When he came to the office, he sat at the desk with one hand on his forehead, wondering in his heart whether he had wronged Li Zhen. It was not him who sent Qian Zhong last night. It was just a coincidence. This morning he asked himself Why is it not good? I just care about myself, but I deliberately made up lies to hurt him. Isn't it a bit too much?

There is no deep hatred between him and Li Zhen, so why should I say something that makes him uncomfortable?

No, no, this is also for his own good. I definitely can't get together with him. This is also to vaccinate him in advance.

"I'm bored to death." Song Yingbai decided to give up thinking, lay down on the table, buried his face in the paperwork, and said weakly to Fang's family, "...Do you think it's my mother-in-law?"

"My lord, not at all. I still feel that you talk too little, and you don't look like you anymore. Why don't you take a few days off and rest, I'm serious." Fang Jiamo persuaded kindly.

Song Yingbai sighed, it seemed that he was just playing tricks in his heart.

Just spent a day immersed in the guilt of hurting Li Zhen. That night, Song Yingbai tossed and turned, and flashed the past between him and Li Zhen in his mind. The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, and he didn't sleep much all night. .

Fortunately, the next day, when he caught up with Xiu Mu, Song Yingbai had a good night's sleep at home. When he woke up, his servant told him that Pei Zhenfu had come and had been waiting for him for a long time. Song Yingbai hurriedly got up to see his brother.

"Why don't you have someone wake me up?"

Pei Huaixuan smiled and said, "Did you sleep well? I'll wait for a while, it's nothing. You haven't eaten yet, let's go out to eat."

Song Yingbai changed his clothes and went out for his elder brother. He first went to the restaurant to order food and drinks. When he came out, when the lights came on, Pei Huaixuan took him to Jiaofangsi, "Let's go, listen to the music before going back."

Song Yingbai was a little embarrassed, "...still going?"

"I've given you all the money, don't you feel sorry for it?" Pei Huaixuan was determined, "Anyway, if you go back to idle, you will be idle."

"This one……"

"You don't like such a beautiful woman?" Pei Huaixuan asked puzzled.

This question became a question in Song Yingbai's ears, and he directly thought of Li Zhen's words, and immediately said: "I like it, of course I like beautiful women, let's go!" After finishing speaking, he walked in front instead.

Pei Huaixuan said: "I don't believe it, Li Zhen can also get in the way today, and the same trick can make it fail twice."

Song Yingbai decided not to think about him, and he wasn't married to him, so why bother with him.

Seeing that Pei Huaixuan and Song Yingbai came again, the bustard hurriedly called Wanyu out, and while apologizing, she said: "The day before yesterday was really disappointing, and I couldn't find anything after a thorough investigation. People like us are really miserable. Anyone who comes will be squeezed." Let’s do it. In fact, it’s nothing we should suffer, but it’s not beautiful to let the guest officials lose their interest. Come on, Wanyu quickly apologize to the young master.”

Wanyu blessed Song Yingbai obediently, and then replied shyly: "I haven't finished talking about the song last time. If you want to continue listening, my lord, please come with me."

Pei Huaixuan smiled and pushed Song Yingbai, "You are invited, go quickly."

Song Yingbai came all the time and spent all the money, so he went upstairs with Miss Wanyu, sat down in the same place as last time, and watched her play the tune.

At the end, Wanyu finished playing the piano, and looked at him with a smile, "Is it because I can't play the piano well? Why is the young master so absent-minded?"

"Uh... I have something on my mind."

"Actually, the slave family saw it last time. Although the young master is sitting here, his heart is not here." Wanyu said softly with a smile: "The slave family has seen that everything is led by another young master. Are you right? I'm not interested."

Song Yingbai didn't know what to say, so he just sighed lightly.

"Then let the slaves guess." Wanyu left the piano, sat next to Song Yingbai, lowered her eyebrows and said, "Perhaps the young master has a sweetheart and feels sorry for her coming to this kind of place?"

Song Yingbai laughed, "Wrong guess."

Wanyu's beautiful eyes turned, and she rescued herself, "I was born in the Jiaofang and grew up in the Jiaofang. All I hear are these romantic things. My vision is so wide. I guessed wrong. I hope you don't blame me."

Song Yingbai supported his chin with one hand, "I'm not that bad-tempered, so I won't blame you."

"The young master, would you like to have a chat with my slave?" After speaking, he stuck out half of his tongue, "Actually, I am also very nervous, maybe I will relax after chatting."

"Actually... even I don't know what I want to say."

Wanyu smiled lowly and said: "Thousands of worries, even if you only say a part of it, you will feel better. Like me, I was worried about who would comb me, but after seeing the young master, I was worried that I would not be able to satisfy the young master. .”

Song Yingbai said: "...you are fine."

Wanyu's face was ashamed, "By the way, my family has also learned from female celebrities recently, would you like to see my embroidery?" After finishing speaking, she got up and walked to the bed, and took out an embroidery frame from under the pillow. "Look, son, how is my embroidery?"

Song Yingbai walked over and sat on the bed with her, looking at the embroidered pattern of mandarin ducks, her heart didn't fluctuate.

Wanyu glanced at him, "This slave's embroidery is not good, the young master laughed."

"...Mandarin ducks or anything else, they are one male and one female." Song Yingbai suddenly said this.

Wanyu was startled, not knowing how to proceed.

Song Yingbai thought in his heart, otherwise it is wrong, if only one of him and Li Zhen is a woman.

But if Li Zhen was a woman, according to his background and family background, he would definitely be unattainable.

But if he was a woman, he wouldn't come to the capital, and would have been married long ago if nothing happened, and he wouldn't know Li Zhen either.

"...Young Master...Young Master..."

Song Yingbai came back to his senses and found that Wanyu was looking at him worriedly, and he realized that he had been distracted just now.

Wanyu tentatively said: "...Young master is tired, let's rest."

"Huh?" Song Yingbai was taken aback, "Rest?"

Wanyu smiled slightly, leaned towards him, and made a gesture to kiss him.

Song Yingbai suddenly felt a sense of guilt, he instinctively hid back, "...I'm not in the mood..."

Wanyu couldn't help feeling embarrassed when she was rejected, "Young master, if you have something on your mind, then let the servant sit quietly with you."

Giving Song Yingbai enough time to think, Song Yingbai sat blankly, thinking that Li Zhen wouldn't come to trouble him today?Could it be that what he said last time stimulated him to give up?It seems that he really gave up.

... or ... or ...

Suddenly, someone shouted in the corridor: "Wanyu, Wanyu, come out—"

Those who find fault will be late, but they will not be absent. Song Yingbai couldn't help but smile, stood up and opened the door: "Who is calling what?"

I saw an old man walking towards this side, and there were several tortoises blocking him, but he seemed to have a lot of strength, pushing these people aside frequently.

This person must be over seventy years old, with snow-white hair, but his legs and feet are quite strong, yes, if he is not strong, he can't come here.

"Wanyu, Wanyu—" the old man roared, "Come out for me."

Wanyu poked her head to see this person, and was about to close the door in disgust. At this time, the old man hurried forward, "Wanyu, didn't you promise to accompany me? Who is this man?"

When Song Yingbai heard this, he knew that it was another benefactor, not Li Zhen, and he was a little disappointed for some reason, so he said to the old man: "She can accompany whoever she wants, don't get entangled, go away!"

At this time, the madam came upstairs, and seeing the old man's face flashed a look of embarrassment, "It's you..."

When he saw the madam, he said angrily: "Old godmother, you promised well a few days ago to let Miss Wanyu accompany me for the first night, how did you change your mind, who is this little boy?"

The bustard smiled awkwardly: "I agreed to you, but Miss Wanyu doesn't agree. The rules here, apart from the amount of money, the girl can choose the guest who grooms for the first time. Miss Wanyu doesn't like you, Haven't I already returned the money to you, why are you making trouble again?"

He asked Wanyu sharply, "Why don't you like me?"

Wanyu half-covered her mouth with her sleeve, and muttered reluctantly: "You... are too old."

Sometimes Song Yingbai didn't understand what was going on with this kind of person who deliberately raised self-defeating questions, probably because he really didn't know what to do.

The old man was greatly stimulated when he heard the answer, and tears burst out of his eyes in an instant, pointing at Song Yingbai and saying: "Little white face, let's see how I deal with you!"

Song Yingbai was looking forward to it, hugging his shoulders to see what he could do to him, and saw the old man rolled up his sleeves, revealing two thin arms like firewood sticks, gearing up, eager to try, and then there was no more, just glaring at Song Yingbai viciously , muttering something.

Song Yingbai was really afraid that the old man's blood vessels would burst if he stared too hard.

Finally, the old man exhaled freely and laughed.

Song Yingbai pouted, what is this, spiritual victory method?Could it be that he just beat him up in his inner world?

At this time, Pei Huaixuan said angrily: "What are you making a noise about? Come on, throw this old guy out!" With a wave of his hand, his entourage rushed up, grabbed the old man, and dragged him downstairs like a pig , the old man didn't struggle much, he just sneered and let himself be dragged down.

Pei Huaixuan said: "Don't lose interest because of this guy, it's still early, go in quickly, Miss Wanyu is waiting for you."

Song Yingbai turned his head and saw that Wanyu had already sat back on the bed, but he knew that if he stayed here, he would only think about philosophical issues and had no intention of doing anything else, so he said to his brother: "...I'd better go back, yes She really doesn't feel it... I might like to be more mature."

The skinny horse who gave Feng Yun before said he didn't feel it, so this time my brother deliberately found a young woman who hadn't been groomed yet, but he still didn't feel it. Can this stand? He felt like hitting himself.

But Pei Huaixuan doesn't care. If my younger brother says he doesn't like it, then these women must be bad. "Indeed, the yellow-haired girl is nothing interesting. I'll find you another one. Anyway, there is plenty of time, so we can play hard."

Song Yingbai didn't blame his brother when he saw him, but felt a little guilty, "But the money was spent."

"If you don't like it, forget it." Pei Huaixuan walked out with her younger brother, "Actually, you didn't like her the first time, but it's not easy to refute my face, so just hold back and say nothing. If you don't like her next time, Just tell me."

Song Yingbai had a sore nose, his brother was really kind to him.

Pei Huaixuan patted him on the shoulder, "It's just killing time, don't worry about it."

My brother is good in every way, if there is something wrong, it must be someone else's fault.

Song Yingbai nodded heavily, and at this moment, Pei Huaixuan was startled suddenly, blinked vigorously, then put his hand down, and made a few fist clenching movements.

"What's wrong?" Song Yingbai asked worriedly.

"Suddenly my fingertips are a little numb, it's nothing." Pei Huaixuan said, "Since you're interested, and it's getting late, let's go back."

Song Yingbai and his elder brother went out of Jiaofang Hutong, and rode home. When they parted at a fork in the road, Song Yingbai saw his elder brother holding the rein with one hand, while the other hand was in front of his eyes, looking over and over again, as if looking for something.

"You're okay?"

"It's okay, maybe I drank too much." Pei Huaixuan said, "Don't worry about me, go back as soon as possible." After speaking, he turned around and left.

Song Yingbai returned to his residence, and it was another night of tossing and turning, unable to sleep, his mind was full of questions from Li Zhen, Song Yingbai, do you really like women?

He thought angrily, even if he doesn't like women, he can't like you either.

Song Yingbai didn't sleep much all night, and got up at dawn, and rode to find Pei Huaixuan. When he parted last night, he seemed to be unwell, and he didn't know if it was important.

When Song Yingbai arrived at Pei's house, the housekeeper recognized Song Yingbai, let him in, told him to wait a while, and then went to inform the master.

Song Yingbai sat in the living room for a long time, but his brother didn't come to see him. When he was worried, the butler came back with a sad face: "Song Qianhu, our master, hasn't got up yet, why don't you wait a little longer? "

Song Yingbai is the most important VIP, as long as he comes to visit, he must report no matter what time.

"Didn't get up? Did you go in and take a look?"

"...How dare we." The housekeeper said with a false smile, "But it was reported through the door. If the master is awake, he must have heard it. He has nothing to say, but he is still awake."

"Is he in the room?" Not to mention that my brother should be awake at this time, even if he is still asleep, his vigilance should be very strong, and he won't cry out to wake him up.

"Yes, I came back last night and went to bed early." The housekeeper said, "I asked the maid who guards the gate."

It seems that the butler also guessed that he was not in the room about whether he could wake up the master, so he asked the maid.

Song Yingbai was always concerned about him, but when he heard that he couldn't wake up, he had a bad feeling in his heart, "I'll go and see."

"But, if you wake up the master...this crime..."

"Don't worry, I can afford it!" Song Yingbai was very familiar with Pei's house, and went straight to the backyard, to the yard where Pei Huaixuan was resting, and went straight to the door of the house. Responding, he slammed into it.

The housekeeper and all the servants were frightened and wanted to persuade them, but they felt that they really should go in and have a look.

Finally, Song Yingbai kicked open the door, jumped in, walked into the room, and saw the clothes his brother wore last night on the hanger, which meant that he was indeed in the room.

The bed curtain was lowered, so the situation inside could not be seen clearly, but no one was awakened by the sound of the door slamming just now, which made Song Yingbai's heart rise to his throat, and the haze hit his heart.

I hope he lifts the curtain, it was my brother who laughed at him, saying that he was just trying to scare him, and he was fooled.

It's a pity that the other party doesn't seem to have such a character, Song Yingbai gritted his teeth and lifted the curtain.

I saw a person carved out of white jade who looked exactly like Pei Huaixuan lying on the bed, so lifelike that even the best sculptor could not create such a realistic work.

Although Song Yingbai was mentally prepared, but seeing such a scene, he still took a step back in fright. He grabbed the bed curtain so as not to fall, and when he stood up straight, he rushed to the jade man and touched his cheek, " elder brother--"

It is not the warm skin that is touched, but the cold and smooth jade face.

The portrait made of white jade has its eyes closed, without any change, just a cold statue.

Song Yingbai punched himself, the pain made him gasp, it seemed that it was not a dream.

Brother, turned into... a statue made of white jade?
