Chapter 328 The Princess Wants to Play Badly 24
"Master, are we going too early?"
Guanqi followed behind Xie Wuyu and whispered, "Didn't the king say that we should go later if she hasn't come back yet?"
"Will it be bad if I go too early? Will the king be angry?"
Xie Wu Yu couldn't stand it any longer and glared at him, "Isn't your mouth tired? Can you give it a rest?"
"It's, it's okay." Guanqi shrank his neck.
Xie Wu Yu turned around and left, "Then my ears are tired, so shut up."
"Oh."
Guanqi just shut up and followed.
The master and servant changed into more low-key clothes and quietly took a carriage to the alley opposite Yingchun Tower.
From this angle, you can see the situation at the entrance of Yingchun Tower, but it is inconspicuous and will not be noticed by people on the opposite side.
At this time, the lights are just coming on and the city of flowers is bustling with activity.
Lanterns were hung high at the entrance of Yingchun Tower. A young man in enchanting red clothes was leaning against the doorway, looking weak and boneless, with a round fan half covering his face. He looked at the guests coming and going, his beautiful eyes full of charm.
"Sir, come in and take a look. The night is long, why not have some fun?"
On the upper floor, colorful silks fluttered in the wind, and the lights in all the rooms were on. There were men standing in front of the windows, humming little songs, and there were people holding flowers, throwing petals down one by one.
There were so many tricks that it is difficult to describe in detail, and all the guests passing by, regardless of gender, could not help but look inside.
When the wind blows, the fragrance fills the air.
The land of decadence and luxury is nothing more than this.
Xie Wu Yu lifted the carriage curtain and looked in. The face was hidden in the darkness and could not be seen clearly, but he felt a chill on his back as he sat in the front of the carriage watching the game.
Sin ah.
While watching the chess game, I sighed inwardly.
The next moment, Xie Wuyu called out faintly, "Watch the chess game."
Guan Qi shuddered and looked back stiffly, "What's wrong, Master?"
Xie Wuyu didn't look at him, still staring at Yingchun Tower, and asked softly: "Do you think the prodigal son can really turn back?"
"This..." Guanqi couldn't answer.
He felt that a prodigal son was a prodigal son, so how could he ever turn back?
But his master certainly didn't want to hear this. But if he was asked to lie, he couldn't open his mouth and could only stammer and fool around.
Xie Wuyu saw through his thoughts and snorted, "I know you don't believe it, and I don't believe it either."
Guan Qi laughed awkwardly, "What if?"
Xie Wu Yu was about to say something but stopped himself, swallowing back his harsh words, and sneered, "Unless your brain is damaged, you will be replaced by someone else."
He was too lazy to watch any more, so he lowered the curtain and said to Guanqi: "Watch it, and call me in half an hour."
"Yes."
Guanqi perked up, leaned against the wall of the car and stared at the people coming and going in Yingchun Tower.
……
Mingnan didn't know that Xie Wuyu was outside.
They walked leisurely into Yingchun Tower, and the steward immediately came to greet them, twisting his waist and smiling.
"Oh my goodness, what kind of wind is blowing today? It actually brought such a distinguished guest here. Our Yingchun Tower is really honored!"
The steward came closer and threw a coquettish glance at Mingnan, then threw a red handkerchief over Mingnan's face, bringing with it a gust of cloying fragrance.
Mingnan turned his face away imperceptibly and frowned.
[I almost choked to death. ]
205: [You'll get used to it. There are incense burning everywhere here. I wonder if it has any other uses, hehe~]
Ming Nan: [……]
Seeing that the butler was about to get close to her, Mingnan quickly clamped his wrist and said jokingly, "How come you are so drunk that you can't stand when you haven't even drunk yet?"
Her friends who came with her started to make a scene.
"Hahahaha, even if the wine doesn't make you drunk, you will get drunk by yourself. Who wouldn't get drunk after seeing our handsome king?"
"If I were a man, I'd be drunk too."
"Lord, please be kind to me."
Everyone laughed, causing others in the hall to look over curiously.
Mingnan let go of the steward's hand, blocked the other party's outstretched hand with his round fan, and smiled, "Tonight, regardless of status, we are here to have fun. Go - call up all the beauties in your building."
The original owner was a frequent visitor here and had his own private room which was not open to the public and was only available to the original owner.
The steward laughed twice. Although he felt a little regretful, he still readily agreed, "Okay, I'll make sure you are satisfied!"
Mingnan nodded and walked upstairs slowly, fanning himself.
Tonight she wore a wide-sleeved, double-breasted shirt embroidered with magnolia patterns in the color of autumn fragrance, with a water-red skirt underneath, a jade-white jewel-inlaid crown on her head, and a mutton-fat jade pendant around her waist. She looked bright and charming.
Wherever he went, people looked at him sideways.
Mingnan went straight up to the third floor without looking around.
Her private room was at the very back, it was large and beautifully decorated.
After entering, everyone sat around a table. After a while, the manager called in a group of thin and handsome young men around eighteen or nineteen years old.
The young men were lined up in a row, each with their own unique looks.
Enchanting and bright, pure and lovely, noble and cold, melancholy and gentle...
Looking around, it's really dazzling.
"My Lord, which one do you like?"
The manager asked Mingnan first.
Mingnan has the highest status among this group of people, so she has to pick the others first before she can move.
The others had no objection to this and looked at Mingnan leisurely.
Mingnan took a quick glance and saw that one of them was wearing a red shirt. Although his clothes were slightly open and not very dignified, he raised his head slightly, and his proud look reminded her of Xie Wuyu for some reason.
Thinking of their first meeting in the palace.
That day, Xie Wu Yu also wore a red dress and stood among the flowers. She was more beautiful than the flowers and made people unable to take their eyes off her.
Mingnan pointed at him and asked, "What's your name?"
The young man was startled, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "My name is Zhuo Xiu."
"What a nice name. Come here and pour me some wine."
"Yes."
Zhuo Xiu suppressed her excitement and walked quickly towards Ming Nan. She picked up the wine jug on the table and carefully filled it for her. She held the glass wine cup with both hands and said respectfully, "My dear, please enjoy."
"Oh, you're so sensible."
The young lady from the Minister of Rites's family nearby smiled and clapped her hands, and the other young men immediately gathered around her, with soft words and sweet giggles ringing out for a while.
"Master, come and eat this, it's delicious."
"Master, do you like to listen to music? Let me sing for you."
"Master, why are you only looking at him and not at me?"
"..."
The young men clung to people like water snakes, trying their best to seduce them into drinking and having fun.
Mingnan held her chin with one hand and a wine cup with the other, watching them play with a dazed look. The young man in red did not bother her when he saw this. He took Mingnan's fan and stood aside to fan her.
When the wine in the cup was empty, he refilled it and received an appreciative look from Mingnan.
Mingnan asked casually, "Why is Yunqing not here? Didn't he come every time before?"
The young boy had an immature face and it was obvious that he had just been trained not long ago. He did not understand those twists and turns. In addition, before he came, the steward had told Mingnan that he could not afford to offend and must serve him well, so he did not dare to lie.
When Mingnan asked, he said, "Recently, a wealthy guest came to the building and spent a thousand taels of silver to book him for two nights. I guess he must have married into a rich family."
"What guest is more valuable than me?" Mingnan pretended to be displeased and put down the wine cup with a bang.
