Taiping Inn

The madam called a little girl and ordered her to lead Li Xuandu and the others to the flower hall.

Zhou Shuning then secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She had never been to this place, but had read some in the novel. She thought that as soon as she came in, many women would come to pull people to their rooms, and then she would be the shameful person. thing. Now it seems that's not the case. To be fair, this place is pretty good, with an elegant environment and appropriate layout, without any sense of vulgarity.

Li Xuandu seemed to see through her thoughts and explained: "This court is also divided into three or six. The best one covers a vast area and is elegant inside, and hires servants, maids, cooks, musicians and thugs. There are more than a hundred people, most of the women in the building are beautiful, there are many courtesans, and there are also innocent prostitutes who are proficient in literary and ink rhythm. Those who can enter and leave are either rich or noble, but are the favorites of famous scholars and scholars, and most of them will be included for a long time. There is a yard and a famous prostitute with good looks here. Compared with the first class, the second class is not much different in terms of elegance and level, and it is even more than that, but the scale is not as good as that, and it is mostly private houses or In the form of a pleasure boat, many famous prostitutes are unwilling to be governed by the madam, so they set up their own business, usually just to receive regular customers. As for the last time, they are no longer in the market, and most of them do not have any music, wine, chess, tea and other accompanying customers. The means are directly a business that opens the door, so they are called half-closed. They are places that scholars disdain to go, and are mostly visited by ordinary people."

This was the first time Zhou Shuning knew about this and said strikingly: "That is, the higher the place, the 'clean' it will be?"

"Although it's not entirely true, it's basically what it means." Li Xuan nodded and added, "Of course the price is more expensive."

Zhou Shuning whispered: "Brother is so familiar, he must have been here a lot. I will see Sister Qin next time, so I must tell her."

Li Xuandu coughed lightly: "There is no need to say such a thing."

Zhou Shuning smiled sly and lowered her voice: "Didn't my brother ask me to have a good relationship with Sister Qin? I just need to kill my relatives for justice and tell Sister Qin about this matter, she will definitely treat me as her biological sister. Brother, you know Sister Qin. Yes, do you think so?”

Li Xuandu said, "So what if you know, your brother, am I the kind of person who fears my inner self?"

Zhou Shuning smiled and said, "For other things, my brother may not be afraid of Miss Qin, but in such things, my brother must be afraid."

While talking, the two came to the flower hall. The layout here was a bit similar to the inn lobby, with many round tables and stools. At this time, there were already many people in the flower hall, all of which were young scholars wearing silk robes. In the autumn day In the weather, I still waved the folding fan in my hand. A low-tall platform was built in the flower hall, with a plump and beautiful woman wearing a long thorny gold dress, playing the piano leisurely, with the sound of the piano melodiously. As the saying goes, read 300 poems and can recite them even if you can't write poems. Li Xuan and Qin Su have been together for a long time, and can also distinguish some good or bad in the music. For these women who are not good or bad in their own style, After all, it is a skill of eating, but this gentleman has good musical skills.

Li Xuandu and Zhou Shuning chose a seat and sat down, waiting for the next "Flying Flowers and Swallows and Orioles Dance".

At this moment, a handsome young man sitting in the front row stood up and walked towards the two of them.

I saw this young man wearing a small black gauze crown, a beautiful white robe with flowers worn by hundreds of butterflies, and a jade belt around his waist. According to the laws and regulations of the Great Wei Dynasty, people without an official body are not allowed to wear jade belts, and they are used as the grade. There are strict regulations on jade belts, but as there are chaos today, few people strictly abide by these rules, and it is already common for clothing to exceed the rules. Looking at the young master's appearance, his face is like a full moon, his face is like a spring flower, his eyebrows are like a knife cut, and his eyes are filled with autumn waves. Although he is angry and smiles sometimes, he is angry and affectionate, has a slender figure and is more beautiful than a beautiful jade. He is really a beautiful beauty, and he wants to suppress the spring scenery of the building.

The young man came not far from the two of them, held the closed nine-stage folding fan with both hands, and bowed and bowed: "I'm polite."

Li Xuan looked at him for a moment, and hesitated a little, "Miss Palace?"

The young man spread the folding fan in his hand with a "pop", carried it in one hand, held the folding fan in the other hand, gently patted his abdomen, and chuckled, "It's true that I can't hide it from the Purple Mansion."

This young man is the palace official.

The former Xuannv Sect Xuansheng Ji, and the current Right Venerable of Wudao Sect.

The palace official smiled and said, "It's the beautiful scenery in Jiangnan. I met you again when the flowers fall. I left Baidi City, Brother Zifu, I've been missing for a long time."

Li Xuandu asked, "I wonder how the palace girl knew my whereabouts?"

The palace official closed the folding fan, tapped his smooth forehead, and said, "After hearing that Zifu was going to take over as the leader of Taiping Sect, I expected that Zifu would go to Luzhou soon, from Wuzhou to Luzhou, there were two The road is one passing through Jingzhou and the other passing through Jiangzhou. My younger sister remembered that the second time she met Zifu was in this Long Family Mansion in Ping'an County. This is the only place to go from Jingzhou to Luzhou, so I Go down the river and came to this Ping'an County early to wait for the rabbit. Now it seems that my younger sister has really been there. Now my younger sister is inside and outside the Ping'an County. When Xuannv Sect and his group entered the city, my younger sister was the first one. I learned for a moment, and I was a little uncertain before, but now Brother Zifu has revealed his true face, so I can be completely sure of it."

Speaking of this, the palace official turned his head to look at Zhou Shuning: "This is Shuning's sister, it's not seen her for a long time."

Zhou Shuning was like facing a great enemy.

The palace official shook the folding fan with a pendant in his hand and smiled and said, "Sister Shuning, don't be nervous. Now I am no longer a member of the Female Sect, but a member of the Wudao Sect." Zhou Shuning hesitated for a moment and bowed: " Have met a palace girl."

The palace official waved his hand and signaled that Zhou Shuning didn't have to be too polite.

Zhou Shuning had seen the tragedy of the Long Family Escort Agency, and always felt a sense of fear for this cruel and ruthless woman, so she stopped talking at this time.

Li Xuandu asked, "I wonder what kind of teachings are there for the palace girl here?"

At this time, there were sounds of piano in the flower hall, and the few people were talking and they were not afraid of being discovered. However, in order to be on the safe side, the palace official waved his folding fan and set a soundproof prohibition, and then said: "There are private matters." , there is business. "

Li Xuandu asked, "What about private matters? So what about official matters?"

The palace official spread the folding fan in his hand, covered the sandalwood mouth, and chuckled, "It's just that my little sister wants to meet with the Zi Mansion and tell her apart."

Li Xuandu was indifferent to the words of the palace officials and said calmly: "I have seen it now, what about official business?"

The palace official didn't care about Li Xuandu's incomprehension and said, "It was the Holy Lord who asked me to meet Brother Zifu."

"Saint Lord Dan Taiyun?" Li Xuandu was slightly stunned.

Among the four immortal earthly immortals in the world, Li Xuan thought that he had deep or shallow connections with three of them. Li Daoxu was his teacher. The great master Zhang Jingxiu strongly supported him and even went to the earthly master. Xu Wugui had a friend who forgot his age, but he had no interaction with the Holy Lord Dan Taiyun, and had never even seen Dan Taiyun. At this time, Dan Taiyun sent a palace official to see him. What was the intention?

Just as Li Xuan was thinking a few times, he heard the palace official continue saying, "Brother Zifu must be thinking that my younger sister would not go to the Three Treasures Hall without any trouble. In fact, when my younger sister was fine, she also wanted to visit Brother Zifu often, but I'm afraid that Brother Zifu will keep people from thousands of miles away."

Li Xuandu coughed lightly: "Are you talking about the serious matter? I wonder what the Holy Lord has to do?"

"I can't talk about the teachings." The palace official whispered: "I just want to make a good relationship with Brother Zifu."

Li Xuandu said, "This really shocks me."

The palace official joked, "Brother Zifu is so modest. Isn't it ordinary for people to add the green eyes of the three old gods, the Great Heavenly Master, the Great Sword Immortal, and the Earth Master? Even if you miss it, you can't do it all. The immortal immortal looked away together. The Holy Lord heard that the Great Heavenly Master was trying to win over Brother Zifu, so he became interested. Besides, the Zifu was about to take office as the throne of the sect leader of Taiping Sect for nearly a hundred years , except Yan Feiqing, the youngest sect leader. Who can underestimate it? "

Speaking of this, the palace official slightly pulled up his sleeves, exposed a string of silver bells on his wrist, took out a red sandalwood box and placed it on the table in front of Li Xuandu: "This is the meeting gift specially brought to me by the Holy Lord, It can also be regarded as a gift from the Sect Master of Taiping Sect as a member of the Zi Mansion. I hope the Zi Mansion will accept it with a smile."
