Sheng Gong Dance

When I woke up in the morning, the sky was already bright.After hastily eating some breakfast, the west building leaned against the window and looked out of the house.Several small grasses have sprouted in the open space outside the house, full of vitality.Looking at it, Xilou unconsciously lost his mind again.

Until there was a knock on the door, and a witty remark reached Xilou's ears, "Fourth Highness, can we come in?"

The voice brought Xilou back to reality, and when he turned around, he saw three handsome and suave people standing at the door.Although their appearances are different, the most different thing is the depth of their eyes.One person's indifferent eyes were stained with dust, and the other's smiling eyes were treacherous. As for the person who made the sound, there was a playfulness in his big moist eyes.

Xilou smiled friendly, nodded slightly, and raised his hand to signal them to enter the room.

Several people stood in front of Xilou, except for the playful person who looked about the same age as Xilou, the other two were obviously a few years older than Xilou.

"My name is Tao Tao, and I'm here to meet His Highness the Fourth Highness." The man blinked his playful eyes and smiled at himself.

"During the Tang Dynasty, I met the Fourth Highness." The treacherous look in the bottom of the eyes has disappeared, and there is only a little smile left.

"I Yafeng, I have seen the Fourth Highness." The taste of the wind and dust deepened, and Yingying's watery eyes looked straight at the west building.

Looking at the three people in front of him, Xilou suddenly became speechless, his face flushed, he was at a loss, and he stretched out his hands to scratch his hair like a young boy.The long hair that was originally scattered was a few strands in a mess.

The three of them saw that it was funny, Yafeng took a step forward, and looked at Xilou with a smile, "Let me help the fourth highness comb your hair." Xilou nodded, followed Yafeng's steps to sit down in front of the vanity mirror, and let him take care of himself Comb your hair.But he smiled bitterly in his heart, he was just thinking about it, but now he is really relieved.People really shouldn't be in space, otherwise they will be thinking wildly.

"Sit down as you please." The unique clear and moist voice of the boy in the West Building rang out, which made people feel warm and comforted.Tang Li and Tao Tao looked at each other and sat down at the round table respectively.

Tang Lichao Tao Tao winked.Tao Tao understood, turned his big black eyes, got up, walked to Xilou, looked at Xilou and smiled playfully, "Master asked us to follow the fourth highness from now on. We are looking forward to seeing the fourth highness." It's been a long time." After speaking, Wu Liuliu's eyes blinked smartly.

At this time, Yafeng had finished dressing Xilou, and naturally retreated to the side.Xilou got up, tilted his head, followed the man's example and winked playfully, and said softly, "I'm so glad to see you too."

Tao Tao was taken aback for a moment, then smiled heartily. "I didn't expect the new master to be so funny. It seems that I won't be bored in the future."

"En?" Xilou looked at Tao Tao strangely, and said lightly, "I don't think you will be bored no matter who you follow." Tao Tao didn't show any embarrassment when someone exposed his mind, and still smiled without hesitation. Heartless.

With a complete expression on his face, Xilou put away his joke, stepped forward and sat down at the round table, his deep eyes glanced at Yafeng and Tang Li.Knowing that he wanted to get to the point, Tao Tao restrained his naughty heart and sat down at the table.

"I don't know how my grandfather arranged for you before?"

The three of them looked at each other, and Tang Li said, "Master arranged for me to go into business, traveling all over the world, mainly to gather money. Tao Tao can be said to be an idler, mainly responsible for delivering news. As for Yafeng..."

Tang Li looked at Yafeng, but he was embarrassed to continue.But Yafeng didn't care much, and said by himself, "The master arranged for me to go to Yixianglou to steal information from all parties. Now I am the number one son of Yixianglou."

Xilou sized him up slightly, then smiled faintly, there was no contempt in the smile, but a bit of admiration.Yafeng was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, as if there was a fragrance wafting by, which made people feel endless aftertaste.

After listening to a few people's simple narration, Xilou pondered for a while, and asked slowly, "Does Tang Li know which city is the most prosperous?"

Tang Li was surprised. He didn't know why Xilou asked this question, but he said truthfully, "If you say which city is the most prosperous, it probably belongs to Yehua. Since ancient times, the capital of a country has always been a prosperous place."

"And what else?"

"Of course it's Qin Huai." Tao Tao said first.

"Qin Huai..." Xilou read softly, as if he had absorbed his true feelings.

Tang Li saw that he was happy, so he added, "Qinhuai is located in the affluent place in the south of the Yangtze River, and occupies an important traffic route, so its prosperity is probably even worse than that of Yehua."

"Really?" Xilou smiled again, his expression straightened, as if he had made up his mind, and then he asked Tang Li, "Since you are in business and travel around, where is the main destination? "

"Of course it's in Ye Hua City."

"Since you have followed me, let's decide to live in Qinhuai." Then, he turned to look at Yafeng, and said with a smile on his face, "Is there a Qinhuai River in Qinhuai?" I was asking as a joke.

"Indeed there are. Ten miles of Qinhuai River, Goulan and tile houses twine on both sides of the strait, singing every night. It can be said to be the most prosperous place in Dasheng." Yafeng added with a smile, less the indifference of rejecting people thousands of miles away, and more A wink like silk.

"In this case, I think it's not an exaggeration to open another Goulan Courtyard by the Qinhuai River." I didn't expect that there really was a Qinhuai River.

"The Fourth Highness wants me to go to Qinhuai with Tang Li. Then what should I do in Ye Hua City?"

Xilou turned to look at Tao Tao, and smiled playfully, "Isn't there still him?"

Tao Tao was dumbfounded, and then yelled strangely, "But I'm only in charge of sending messages. Whether it's inquiring or in charge of business, I'm not good at it."

"Then you can continue to stick to your old profession." Xilou still smiled, as if he didn't see the bewildered expressions of the three of them.

Tang Li simply opened the skylight to speak frankly. "If the Fourth Highness sends us away, then how will we support the Fourth Highness who is in the palace? What is the Fourth Highness's plan?"

"How did grandpa tell you?"

"Master said to help His Highness Fourth at all costs."

Do whatever it takes.Such a serious word was spoken, no wonder the three of them thought it wrong.Xilou kindly and honestly said, "The only way you can really help me is to go to Qinhuai first. After a year, I will leave the palace and go down to Qinhuai. You have made all the preparations. Isn't my life a happy one?"

"Out of the palace?"

"Go to Qinhuai?"

Several people looked at the west building in surprise.

"When I turn 16, according to the rules of the palace, if I don't become a prince, shouldn't I go out of the palace to live? It seems that I will have a fief when I reach eighteen. But the fief he gave must not be good. Why don't I choose it myself first?" Who?" At first, Xilou spoke in an unusually calm and reasonable manner, but then revealed a bit of childish soliloquy.

"But didn't Your Highness conclude a deal with the master for the sake of seeking the crown prince?" The three of them ignored Xilou's soliloquy later, and just wanted to find out what Xilou really thought.

"Who told you that I want to be the prince?" Xilou gave them a strange look.

Thinking about it carefully, the master didn't seem to say clearly that he helped His Highness the Fourth Highness become the crown prince.But Yafeng asked based on what he knew, "But His Royal Highness is now deeply favored by the emperor, and everyone in the court guessed that His Royal Highness will become the crown prince."

"Do you know what a situation is?" Xilou didn't rush to answer, but asked a question instead.The three of them looked at each other, becoming more and more confused about what the young man in front of him was thinking.

He was stared straight at by three pairs of eyes.Xilou said slowly, "The so-called situation is one moment and another moment. Who can predict the future? Guessing things like this, if they are not implemented, they will always be guesses."

When the young man said these words, the calmness and wisdom in his eyes made people inadvertently convincing.

"After the New Year's Eve, if Tang Li and Yafeng have nothing to do, they should leave for Qinhuai. One year is enough to settle everything. As for Tao Tao..." Xilou paused slightly, squinted his eyes, and looked up and down , floating out a sentence softly, "Do you want to consider serving by my side?"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Tao Tao felt a thunderbolt strike, his face turned pale in an instant, his big black eyes flashed with anxiety, he looked at the west building pitifully, his voice seemed to be choked with sobs, "Fourth Highness, you..." I don't know how to say it here.I had no choice but to ask the other two for help in a blink of an eye.

Yafeng and Tang Li were also taken aback, after all, Tao Tao had already passed the age of sixteen, if he entered the palace, wouldn't he become a eunuch.What a pity.The two couldn't bear it and just wanted to plead for mercy.

But Xilou laughed, "Stay well in the mansion. You can go wherever you want to play. But remember to be there when you are called. And even if you really want to enter the palace to serve, I will not I will wrong you." Said, Xilou moved his gaze down ambiguously.This drew a burst of laughter from the other two and embarrassment from Tao Tao.

After admiring Tao Tao's cherry-like ruddy face enough, Xilou looked away.

The originally serious atmosphere suddenly became relaxed.Tang Li looked at his new master, very casually, and asked with a chuckle, "Your Highness is so indulgent to us. I'm not afraid that the bamboo basket will be empty after a year."

"You don't need to be suspicious, but you don't need to be suspicious. If that's the case, you can only blame yourself for seeing it wrong." Xilou still had a smile in his eyes, and his tone was soft, but with indescribable courage.

The three stood up and formally saluted to the west building.History changed at this moment.If Xilou hadn't embarked on the road of rivers and lakes, maybe it wouldn't cause right and wrong in the future.

What Xilou didn't expect was that even if he stepped into the rivers and lakes, he couldn't really get rid of the court.

Accepting the three people's kneeling calmly, Xilou stretched out his hand, and a youthful voice sounded, "Get up." The three stood up and continued to discuss matters.

"What does His Highness the Fourth Highness plan to do in Qinhuai?" Tang Li asked in detail, acting like a businessman.

In modern times, the most profitable business that Xilou wants to do is smuggling.But since bleaching, it's a different story.After thinking about it in his heart, Xilou said slowly, "Open a restaurant by the Qinhuai River. As for the menu of the restaurant, I will write it down and send it to you later. There is also another teahouse. Is this a teahouse? Tomorrow On the surface it is a tea shop, but in the dark it is a gambling shop. As for the Goulan Courtyard, let Yafeng handle it. But you only need to be a store manager, and you don’t need to be a stage.” After roughly speaking, Xilou asked with a smile on his face, "Is there anything you don't understand?"

Tang Li frowned. He wanted to ask a question just now, but he never had the chance. Hearing that the Fourth Highness seemed to have made up his mind, he said without mentioning, "After all, the Fourth Highness is a noble person. I'm afraid it's not right to open a gambling house and a brothel. All right."

"What's wrong? Merchants value profits. If you want to make money cleanly, there is probably no such good thing in this world. Just do it according to my wishes. If anything happens, I will take care of it." If it wasn't for the family back then Think about it.With my own personality, I would rather be black all my life.A profiteer is not as profitable as a black businessman.

Since the Fourth Highness has spoken like this.Tang Li didn't say any more, anyway, his thoughts coincided with his own.However, Tang Li admired the new idea of ​​opening a gambling shop in a teahouse.Even if it is found out at that time, it can be said to be an ordinary teahouse.

After Tang Li finished asking, it was Yafeng's turn to be puzzled, "May I ask the Fourth Highness what is the store manager and what is the stage?"

When he mentioned this, Xilou remembered that it was in ancient times. He smiled and changed his words, "I mean, you just need to be responsible for managing the brothel, and you don't need to do it yourself." The last few words were ambiguous, but Yafeng naturally understands.

He was very grateful for Xilou's understanding, but it didn't need to be repeated many times. "The Fourth Highness means that I don't need to pick up the guests in person. As long as I manage the brothel well, I can be a bustard."

"En." Xilou didn't expect this person to be very relieved.On the contrary, it is similar to the personality of my previous bed partner in the nightclub.But it is rare to be able to feel so relieved in ancient times.

"However, I have to talk to you about the specific business plan. Only by being different can we attract more business." Xilou smiled and beckoned everyone to sit down and discuss together.

Wait until everything is arranged.The sky has slowly darkened.After seeing off those three people, Xilou suddenly wanted to go for a walk.Now that we're out, it's time to take a good look at Yehua.
