Hualuo Chang'an

The official Hua Niang of Ranxianglou is still quite skillful.

In just a few days, Qin Shangshu was fascinated by those golden-topped girls. After a few exchanges, Qin Shangshu quickly missed some facts.

However, since Su Wuniang was relieved to ask Qin Shangshu to tie the knot, it also shows that Qin Shangshu doesn't know much about the inside story.

Of course, Gong Yining also thought of this point, she was purely holding the mentality of counting as much as she could find.

However, what Gong Yining didn't expect was that the result of the investigation also surprised her.

"After fighting with Su Wuniang for so many years, I just found out that Su Wuniang was born in a government-run teaching workshop, no wonder she is so particular about skills." Gong Yining came to Luo Changxi early in the morning, and began to chatter According to the results of the investigation, "It stands to reason that the women who come out of the government-made teaching workshops will be sent to the Yuefu in the palace if they are highly skilled, and they will be sent to the official brothel. But Su Wuniang turned out to be in the palace. Before the palace... was expelled."

"What's the reason?" Luo Changxi became cautious when he heard that it was related to the palace.

"Qin Shangshu doesn't know either." Gong Yining shook her head, "It's just that Su Wuniang was the most promising luthier to enter the palace back then, but she was expelled for no reason and disappeared for a few years. When she reappeared, she was in Beijing. The Huayue Fourth Courtyard was opened to focus on cultivating highly skilled geisha. This is exactly what the rich, powerful and arty people in Beijing like, and it didn't take long for it to become big."

Luo Changxi knew it well, but she didn't forget her original intention. They originally wanted to investigate the origin of Su Wuniang and Chen Yu.However, Gong Yining talked for a long time, but it seemed that he had nothing to do with that Chen Yu.

unless……

"Could it be that Chen Yu also came from an official teaching workshop? They were together early in the morning?"

"I can't tell, you're pretty smart." Gong Yining blinked, and smiled at Luo Changxi, "However, in fact, this is just Qin Shangshu's guess. Considering Chen Yu's current age, Su Wu When Niang was still in Jiaofang, Chen Yu should have been a little girl with yellow hair, and the possibility of her being born in Jiaofang should not be high. But Qin Shangshu recalled that he vaguely remembered that Su Wuniang was accompanied by a skinny The little girl was not very good-looking, she only heard Su Wuniang call her 'little fish', so she made a wild guess and said that probably that 'little fish' was today's Chen Yu."

"It's just a guess."

"Yes, it's just a guess, with no evidence at all."

Gongyi Ning smiled but was not a smile, her eyes rolled while staring at Luo Changxi, as if she was thinking about something in her heart.Luo Changxi was so scared by her, he simply asked her directly: "What do you want me to do?"

Gongyi Ning pulled Luo Changxi's arm with a playful smile: "You promise me first, and I'll tell you later."

"No."

"This matter, you have to go."

"You can't go?"

"Of course I can't go, Su Wuniang knows me!" Gong Yining was provoked by Luo Changxi, and accidentally said a few words, but since it came to this point, she simply said it all, " I want you to go to Huayue Fourth Courtyard again...to drink flower wine."

Luo Changxi's head was aching.

She still vividly remembers the time when she went to Ranxiang Tower and was pestered by Gong Yining. Now, Gong Yining actually forced herself to go to another place to "drink flower wine".If that kind of thing happens again, Luo Changxi is really not sure, and he will not be able to resist slashing people with his knife at that time.But Gong Yining didn't seem to notice her displeasure at all, and she blinked her eyes, pretending to be cute and pitiful, and said, "Just... go and drink once! Maybe after you go once, you won't want to leave , I still want to go for the second...third time!"

"Not even once."

"Hey, you are too stingy!" Gong Yining was very dissatisfied, "If Su Wuniang didn't know me, I would still want to go. You are not happy to give you such a good opportunity."

Luo Changxi's heart was on fire.

"What does that have to do with what we're looking for?"

"How do you know it's okay if you don't go and see? This Su Wuniang is related to the palace..." Gong Yining said intentionally, "And she is also involved with officials in the court. Don't you want to investigate her?"

Luo Changxi frowned.

"Why don't you find someone to go down?"

"This matter is of great importance. Of course I don't dare to let others know too much." Gong Yining thought for a while and asked again, "I don't understand. Why are you unwilling to go?"

Gong Yining really didn't understand.

Wasn't Luo Changxi doing well when he came to Ranxianglou last time?Of course she didn't expect that the reason Luo Changxi didn't want to go was that she had a knot in her mind about the incident in Ranxianglou last time.Especially thinking of Gongyi Ning sitting on her lap, and laying his whole body in her arms stickily...

Luo Changxi didn't want to think about it anymore.

"Well, I'll go."

Moreover, she intends to go with a knife.

Gong Yining couldn't go, so Luo Changxi called Jing Qing.Jing Qing went, but she always seemed hesitant to talk on the road.Luo Changxi was holding back his anger, seeing Jing Qing like this, he couldn't help it: "Speak up if you have something to say!"

Jing Qing smiled awkwardly: "Your Highness, I feel...it seems that you have been running to brothels since you returned to Beijing?"

"so what?"

"This... doesn't seem very good." Jing Qing thought about his words before saying cautiously, "Of course I know what kind of person His Highness is. But others don't know, and they don't know what it will be like..."

"Just pass it on, let them go."

Luo Changxi didn't care about this.

"But... Your Majesty... will you be unhappy?"

"It's better not to be happy."

Luo Changxi missed this sentence, and walked directly to the gate of Huayue Fourth Courtyard.

Jing Qing was dumbfounded.

In fact, Luo Changxi's worries are completely unnecessary, because Huayue Fourth Courtyard is completely different from Ranxiang Building.There will be no showgirls in revealing clothes, and it is impossible for any woman to sit directly in the arms of a man.Everywhere in Huayue Fourth Courtyard is decorated elegantly and pleasantly, and the women among them are also well-dressed. It doesn't look like a brothel, but like a small courtyard.In short, it feels very comfortable and relaxing.

As soon as Luo Changxi revealed his identity, Su Wuniang came to receive her in person.

This was the first time Luo Changxi saw Su Wuniang.

Because Gong Yining told Luo Changxi that Su Wuniang was born in an official teaching workshop, Luo Changxi preconceived that Su Wuniang must be a beauty.Even if it is not as stunning as Chen Yu's, at least it should be somewhat pretty.

But Luo Changxi was wrong again.

Su Wuniang turned out to be a very ordinary-looking woman.

——Cooked hair, long face, tall figure, wearing a thin mouse-colored skirt.Regardless of appearance or attire, they are no different from ordinary women that can be seen everywhere on the streets of Beijing.

This turned out to be the famous Su Wuniang?

Luo Changxi was surprised in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.Su Wuniang came up to greet her warmly, chatted a few gossips, and smiled at Luo Changxi.

Now, Luo Changxi finally saw Su Wuniang's uniqueness.

Su Wuniang is a very gentle person.

This tenderness exists between her eyebrows, and is reflected in her speech and behavior.When she smiled softly, it gave people a sense of comfort like a spring breeze. This gentleness made her very soft, and made people feel a little close.

Such tenderness is by no means innate.

It should be through the precipitation of years and the tempering of time that she has gradually acquired the charm she possesses.

Luo Changxi looked at it for a long time, but he did not forget the purpose of his coming, and said directly to Su Wuniang: "Last time I had a relationship with Miss Chen Yu in the Prime Minister's Mansion. A chance to hear Miss Chen Yu's beautiful voice again?"

Su Wuniang was taken aback for a moment, and her face became a little unnatural.

"This...it's really unfortunate that His Highness came here."

"how?"

"Chen Yu just came back from the prime minister's mansion, she might have caught cold on the way, and now she has a headache and is lying in the room feeling uncomfortable. I'm afraid she will disappoint His Highness's good intentions."

Prime Minister?

Chen Yu actually went to the Prime Minister's Mansion again.

Luo Changxi wasn't unhappy at all, but since she came, there was absolutely no reason for her to throw up her sleeves and leave immediately if she didn't see Chen Yu.Su Wuniang was also very knowledgeable, so she called two other pretty girls up and played two pieces for Luo Changxi.Although that song is not as wonderful as Shen Yu, it is also a rare skill in the outside world.

Luo Changxi sat for a while, then got up and left.

Su Wuniang walked for a while, when suddenly a servant hurried over and said a few words to her.Luo Changxi noticed that Su Wuniang frowned slightly, with anxiety in her eyes.Luo Changxi's heart moved, he took a step closer and said, "Boss Su, if you have something to do, just go, you don't have to worry about anything with me."

Su Wuniang pleaded guilty again and again, turned around and left in a hurry.

Luo Changxi took Jing Qing a few steps towards the door. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he dodged around behind the flower tree and carefully followed in the direction Su Wuniang was walking in a hurry.

As he walked, he even came around to the back door of Huayue Fourth Courtyard.

Luo Changxi faintly heard Su Wuniang's voice, so he quickly found a hiding place and peeked intently.

"...I've searched everywhere, but I still can't find anyone!" A gasping nanny stood outside the back door with an anxious expression on her face, "What's wrong with this! It's all the old man's fault! Something happened to Miss Ruo , the old body is no longer alive..."

Although Su Wuniang was also in a hurry, she looked much calmer than the old mother.

"Send more people to look for it. Teahouses, inns, and even traffickers' wives' houses, brothels... all along the way... I will go through them carefully! Where can I go in such a short time?"

"Eh, yes!"

These words have no beginning and no end, Luo Changxi can only hear that he has lost someone.But who could be called "Miss"?It can't be a sinking fish, right?Besides, if Chen Yu is lost, it shouldn't be in this tone.

Luo Changxi was very confused.

Jing Qing on the side suddenly tugged at her sleeve, and pointed to another place with her eyes.

It was only then that Luo Changxi realized that there was someone standing a little far away from the corridor in the back garden.The man was wearing thin pajamas, with a headband around his head, and his complexion was not very good-looking.

——It’s a sinking fish.

Looking at it like this, Chen Yu really had a headache, and Su Wuniang didn't lie to her.

But since he was sick in bed, why did he run out like this?

Luo Changxi took a closer look and found that Chen Yu's eyes were falling on Su Wuniang who was not far away, but the eyes were a little vague, unable to discern emotion.But Luo Changxi felt that Chen Yu standing there seemed to be filled with a very sad and lonely emotion.

Su Wuniang talked with the old nanny for a while at the door, but finally sighed.

"It's not your fault... It's actually all my mother's fault for making it like this today."

Luo Changxi was shocked again.

It turns out that Su Wuniang has a daughter?No wonder it is called "Miss".And obviously, even if the daughter is lost, she has to go to the back door to tell her. It can be seen that this "Miss" is not known to everyone and is secretly raised outside.

Luo Changxi couldn't help but glanced at Chen Yu on the other side.

Chen Yu should have heard these words, she suddenly lowered her head, then turned around and left.

Luo Changxi suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart.

Maybe Gong Yining was right.

The relationship between Chen Yu and Su Wuniang should not be maintained simply by gold and silver.Between them, there must be secrets that others cannot detect.
