Duan Canghai saw that this move was indeed effective, so he said: "If a hair of the Marquis' golden body is injured, you should think about the consequences yourself." Looking at Mrs. Tian, his voice became gentler and he smiled: "Mrs. Tian, The Marquis passed by the ring today and stretched out his muscles, you can't leave the Marquis here just because of this, right?"
Mrs. Tian bit her pink lower lip with her snow-white teeth, and then asked doubtfully: "He... is he really the Marquis of Jinyi?"
"Madam, who dares to pretend to be a Marquis of Jinyi?" Duan Canghai raised his head slightly: "If you pretend to be a Marquis of Jinyi, you will be executed in Lingchi."
Qi Ning's heart skipped a beat, thinking to himself, damn, I am really a fake. It turns out that I will be executed by Ling Chi after I fake it.
Of course he knew what Ling Chi meant, and he felt hairy all over just thinking about it.
Mrs. Tian frowned and was silent for a moment, then said: "Since you are... Since you are the Marquis of Jinyi, you must be reasonable. Could it be... Could it be that the Marquis can just say something without counting it?"
Only then did Qi Ning come forward. All the servants looked at each other, a little uneasy, thinking to themselves that Jin Yihou was a hereditary prince of the empire, he was very noble, and it was not someone like us who could offend him.
"Madam, it is true that I was a little reckless this time." Qi Ning winked at Duan Canghai: "I will return the one hundred taels of silver to you, but the marriage...!" Suddenly it occurred to him that Mrs. Tian had just personally I went to call Miss Tian Jia, but there was no trace of Miss Tian Jia at this moment, but I don’t know why
However, Mrs. Tian is so charming and charming, and Miss Tian's appearance should not be bad.
Duan Canghai had already taken out the one hundred taels of silver and sent it over. Qining only thought that Mrs. Tian would be accepted. Who knew that Mrs. Tian's beautiful eyes turned slightly and then said: "You are the Marquis, I am a woman." If I don't argue with you, anyway... there is always time to reason." Butler Xiangtian said, "Send the Marquis out." Without saying much, he turned around and left.
Qi Ning was a little surprised. Could it be that Mrs. Tian was scared away just because she showed the Marquis' sign
Seeing Mrs. Tian twisting her waist and leaving, her plump and round buttocks swinging from side to side, she is charming and charming.
Butler Tian waved to the servants to disperse, then he raised his hand and said with a smile: "Master Marquis, you didn't entertain me well, please!"
Qi Ning was worried about staying here, and Mrs. Tian would change her mind later. Although she was the Marquis, she could not argue with a woman who was a Taoist family here. Without delay, Butler Tian sent him out of the house. At this time, the sun had already set. Ning let out a long breath and glanced at Ximen Zhanying. She turned her head away from him and said with a smile: "Duan Canghai, how about we find a place to relax and go to the Qinhuai River?"
Duan Canghai saw Qi Ning wink and understood, and said: "Wherever the Marquis goes, my subordinates will naturally follow him."
"Are you done yet?" Ximen Zhanying said angrily: "Qining, don't go too far."
Qining laughed and said: "Oh, Zhan Ying, do you want to kill me with a knife again? Why, do you still need to take care of where I am going? Who am I?"
"I...!" Ximen Zhanying gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, Mr. Qi, you want to go to the Qinhuai River, right? Come on, go now, my aunt will accompany you until the end."
She gritted her teeth, and her eye circles were even a little red. Qining knew that Ximen Zhanying had reached her limit. Thinking about it, this afternoon had given this girl a taste. He smiled and said: "You want to go to the Qinhuai River? Hehe, I suddenly changed Here’s an idea, Duan Canghai, let’s go home, I’m hungry.”
Ximen Zhanying was startled, his face softened slightly, and he snorted coldly.
There were only two streets between the Tian family and the Jinyi Hou Mansion. When they arrived in front of the Hou Mansion, Ximen Zhanying let out a long breath and turned to leave. Qining coughed and said, "Wait a minute!"
Ximen Zhanying stopped and didn't look back. He just snorted coldly and said, "What other nonsense is there?"
"Zhan Ying, I'm still in the mansion, why are you leaving in such a hurry?" Qi Ning was standing in front of the door and took another step to enter the Hou's mansion, but he didn't take this step out. Ximen Zhan Ying couldn't help but look back, took a look, and said angrily, "Then go in, I'll wait!"
"Look, we've spent the whole afternoon together, but you're still so cold." Qining said with a smile, "Why don't you come in and sit down, I still have a lot to say to you."
"I don't have a word to say to you." Ximen Zhanying sneered: "You are the Marquis of Jinyi, and I will not take a step into the Marquis of Jinyi's mansion."
Qi Ning laughed and said, "I can't say this enough. Maybe one day you really want to enter the Marquis' Mansion, and even you can't decide it yourself."
"I don't want to go in, even if you kill me."
"That's not necessarily the case." Qi Ning said with a smile: "If one day eight-carriage sedans carry you into the mansion, will you come in?"
Ximen Zhanying was startled, then he understood. He was ashamed and angry, his face was hot, and he said angrily: "You scoundrel, I... I will never marry you."
"Look, have you misunderstood again?" Qining laughed and said, "I didn't say you must marry me before entering the Marquis' Mansion. There are as many as one hundred men in this Marquis' Mansion, maybe...!"
Before he could finish speaking, Ximen Zhanying had already shouted sharply: "I'll kill you, surnamed Qi." He drew his sword and rushed over.
Qi Ning was agile and had already entered the Hou Mansion. He shouted: "Duan Canghai, don't stop her, let her in. Everyone is ready. As soon as she comes in, close the door and let the dogs out!"
He put his hands behind his back and waited, but didn't see Ximen Zhanying rushing in. He couldn't help but poke his head out, only to see Ximen Zhanying leaving quickly.
"Master Hou, this girl is going crazy because of your anger today." Duan Canghai said with a smile: "If the Lord God knows, will he blame you?"
"What do you know? This kind of woman should be treated like this." Qi Ning said: "You don't see how she looks. She has a hot temper and is self-righteous. Fortunately for me, I am the Marquis. If I were an ordinary person, I wouldn't be torn apart by her. Is it a block?"
Duan Canghai laughed and was about to speak when his face suddenly tightened. Qining was a little surprised. Seeing him looking at the street in front of the door, he couldn't help but look over and saw a man in his early thirties bowing forward with a smile on his face. Come on, Duan Canghai has already said in a deep voice: "Who is it?"
The man was stunned for a moment, but then he immediately smiled and said, "Master Hou, do you still know Xiao Xiao?"
Qi Ning felt that this man looked very familiar, but he couldn't remember who he was. He asked, "Can't remember clearly? Are you looking for me?"
"Replying to the Marquis, I have been coming to the house since noon to invite the Marquis. The Marquis has not been in the house, so I have been waiting here." The man said with a smile, "My name is Wang Xiang. Miss Xian'er sent me, does Mr. Hou still remember?"
Qi Ning remembered at this time that Wang Xiang had been here once before, and he was invited to go there at Zhuo Xian'er's instruction. He smiled and said, "It's you, I remembered it."
"Master Marquis, last time I came to invite you, he was busy with official duties and Miss Xian'er didn't wait." Wang Xiang said cautiously: "Miss Xian'er sent a young one to invite you again today. The girl said that today is the last time." Late, if Mr. Hou can't go again, from now on... it will be inconvenient for her to see Mr. Hou again."
Qi Ning frowned and said, "What does this mean?"
Wang Xiang was a little embarrassed, smiled and said nothing.
Duan Canghai came closer and whispered: "Master Hou, according to the rules on the Qinhuai River, after the selection of the Queen, whether it is the Queen or the Concubine, the first three days and three nights will be given to the benefactor with the highest bid. In total, today It happens to be the last night, and once tonight is over, Zhuo Xianer will no longer be able to just serve the Marquis."
Qining was startled, but Wang Xiang had already smiled bitterly and said: "Master Hou, I dare to say something, in fact, after that night, the girl sent the young man to invite the Marquis, but the Marquis was busy with official duties and could not make the trip, so the girl never thought about food or food. I heard that the girl often sheds tears in the past two days. Today is the last day. If the Marquis can't pass, girl... girl will... tomorrow!" He sighed lightly and did not continue.
Qi Ning understood the meaning.
After Zhuo Xianer was elected as the concubine, the first guest she received was herself. There was no doubt that Zhuo Xianer was very satisfied with being her first man, but nothing happened that night. Tianyou has never seen her. According to the rules, Zhuo Xianer will officially become a member of the Qinhuai River after tonight. By then, there will be countless princes, grandsons, nobles, and nobles who covet her. She doesn’t know who will be her first real lover in the end. Guests entering the curtain.
Strange to say, even though it was just a one-time relationship, the thought of Zhuo Xianer's fragrant and soft jade-like snow body being taken over by someone else made Qi Ning feel very unhappy, and even felt a hint of jealousy, and thought for a moment. , then said: "In that case, I will go over to see Miss Xian'er tonight."
Wang Xiang raised his brows and said happily: "Is what the Marquis said true? Then... that's really great, little... I'll go back and tell the girl to prepare." He saluted Qining, turned around and left quickly. go.
Duan Canghai sighed: "Does the Marquis sympathize with her?"
"It's not sympathy." Qi Ning said lightly: "Since I entered her cabin that night, she is my woman. Do you think my Qi Ning's woman can be interfered with by others?"
Duan Canghai was stunned and asked quickly: "Is the Marquis planning to redeem her?"
"If you really want to redeem her, how much money will it cost?" Qining asked.
Duan Canghai thought for a while and then said: "It depends on who is behind her, but since she has been elected as the concubine, she is a cash cow for the people behind her, and one thousand eight hundred taels of silver will definitely not be redeemable. "Paused, hesitated, and then said softly: "What's more, she hasn't accepted any other customers yet, and she is a virgin. The price is even more expensive. Mr. Marquis, according to the previous price, she doesn't have three thousand taels of silver. , I’m afraid there’s no need to talk about it.”
Qi Ning was surprised, thinking that the price was so expensive
In this capital city, three to five hundred taels of silver can buy a very nice house. Although for some dignitaries and wealthy businessmen, three thousand taels of silver is not a big sum at all, but to ordinary people, this is really a big sum. Astronomical figures.
"Actually, for girls like Qinhuai River, one thousand taels of silver is enough to redeem themselves, and some can be sold for a few hundred taels of silver." Duan Canghai saw Qining's surprise and explained: "But the Queen and the Concubine are different. They are originally In the eyes of those rich people, the signs they put up are just tools to show off their wealth. They redeem themselves for the Queen or the Concubine, not for the girl herself, but for the title on their head, which can be given to such girls from the Qinhuai River. Those who want to redeem themselves are all wealthy people." After a pause, he said: "Actually, in three to five months, Zhuo Xianer's redemption price will drop by at least half. By this time next year, it will cost one thousand taels. The silver is sufficient to redeem it.”
"Next year?" Qi Ning sneered: "By next year, the day lilies will be cold?" He rolled his eyes and asked, "Is Dou Lianzhong controlling Zhuo Xian'er's back?" He thought in his heart, if Xian'er was like a pearl , and Dou Lianzhong was behind the control, so he would have to take out the IOU and use it again.
The Dou Family IOU is convenient and easy to use. It is an indispensable artifact whether you are going out or at home.
