Perhaps because tonight is a special performance for Haiyue, many bamboo curtains in the hall have been rolled up, and every table can clearly see the central stage at the front. It was not too late, and the hall was almost full. On the periphery of the first floor, there are well-separated private rooms, which are slightly higher than the hall by three steps, so that the eyes of the people inside can cross the crowd and see the stage. Usually it was a door separated by bamboo curtains, but today, for this girl Haiyue, the bamboo curtains were also removed.
There were no less than a hundred lamps lit in the whole hall, upstairs and downstairs, illuminating like daylight.
Feng Xiwu led Murong Shuqing and his party into the hall, bypassed the crowded hall, followed the mahogany stairs on the side, and went up to the second floor. The decorations on the second floor were more elegant and less deliberate than those on the first floor. , showing more quality. Walking through the wide porch, you can see that there are only three rooms on the second floor. Feng Xiwu took them to the room on the far left. The boy who had been waiting for a long time opened the door and welcomed them in.
The wing is very large, but the light is not as bright as the hall. The soft candlelight gives people a warm and comfortable feeling. Murong Shuqing chuckled approvingly. With this design, the people in the wing can see the stage and the hall, but the people below can't see into the wing. The three wing rooms upstairs stand side by side, and each cannot see the other.
There were three young women sitting in the wing room, all of them very beautiful, each holding a pipa and playing the music softly. Murong Shuqing sat down in front of the round table, sipping the good tea in his hand while listening to such a soothing music, it was indeed a kind of enjoyment.
Putting aside this is a brothel, the service and quality here are appreciated, and it may be good to come and sit occasionally.
Instructing the servants to say hello, Feng Xiwu retreated to the door, bowed and smiled and said, "The two young masters sit first, and the concubine will leave first." When such a master came, she was going to speak to her.
Feng Xiwu was about to go out, but Huo Zhiqing didn't have Murong Shuqing's good taste for tea and entertainment. She stood up excitedly and said, "Hold on, tell you Yingyingyanyan to go out, I want to see Haiyue." She didn't come to see these people play and sing.
Facing Huo Zhiqing's rude clamor, Feng Xiwu was not annoyed, she just walked to the silk gauze curtain and gently lifted a corner, only to hear the crowd outside, it was very lively, Feng Xiwu pointed downstairs, belittled He smiled and said: "Everyone who comes here wants to see Miss Haiyue. When the time comes, the girl will come out naturally. Young master, don't worry."
How could she care about the clamor of such a young man who has seen the wind and waves like this. Murong Shuqing pulled Huo Zhiqing to sit down with a headache and patted her hand soothingly. She was very angry tonight, and she could not be at peace for a moment. Murong Shu Qing slightly cupped her hands and said with a light smile, "Thank you, Mammy Feng!"
Murong Shuqing's politeness and modesty made Feng Xiwu's impression of her even better. She bowed her back again, instead of ignoring Huo Zhiqing when she was sloppy, she replied softly, "Young master! The girl will come out later." After speaking, he slowly left the wing.
Sitting in the chair, Huo Zhiqing pouted, forgetting that she couldn't see Haiyue, she was bullied by an old maid and mad at her, it was all the fault of the elder brother and him. The more she thought about it, the more angry she became. The sound of silk and bamboo that had been melodiously audible turned into an annoying noise when it reached her ears. Huo Zhiqing said impatiently, "Stop playing, it's so noisy. Go out!"
She stopped suddenly and sternly, causing the three women in the room to look at each other, looking at Huo Zhiqing, then at Murong Shuqing. She had seen this man's temper today. Murong Shu waved the three women in Qing Dynasty and let them go down.
After the three left, Huo Zhiqing felt too quiet again. Walking around the room, Murong Shuqing just sipped the tea in her hand and ignored her. The tea in Qingfenglou was really good. Made from completely different tea leaves, the taste is very fresh.
Huo Zhiqing walked back and forth seventeen or eight times. She was really bored. She walked to the curtain, opened a crack slightly, and looked at the situation downstairs. Suddenly, Huo Zhiqing exclaimed, "It's really big brothers! And brother Yan!"
Hearing Huo Zhiqing's exclamation, Murong Shuqing got up and walked behind her, putting his hand on her shoulder, already feeling that she was trembling with anger or sadness. Murong Shuqing hugged her tightly and whispered in her ear, "Don't be impatient, Shaoan."
After a long time, Huo Zhiqing slowly calmed down. She pouted slightly, stared at Yan Haoyu, and cursed in her mouth.
Knowing that they will come and seeing them feel different, Murong Shuqing can understand her feelings, but seeing her calm down so quickly and find a way to relieve her depression, she is relieved, just hope that Yan Haoyu's ears will not It's good to be read red.
Standing behind Huo Zhiqing, Murong Shuqing also slightly opened some curtains, and the situation downstairs could be clearly seen.
In the private room on the right and directly below them, there were Huo Ziqi, Yan Haoyu, and an extraordinary handsome man. The man sat in the middle of them. Although he was only dressed in ordinary clothes, his gestures and gestures showed an aura of dignity. Qi, has repeatedly demonstrated this person's extraordinary identity. They laughed loudly from time to time, and they should be very familiar. Could he be the reason why the Huo family went to Beijing this time? Murong Shuqing glanced at the man carefully, and then looked away.
Looking around the other private rooms, there are many princes of the county, sons of ministers, and rich people in the capital. The appeal of this Miss Haiyue is not small. When he saw the private room on the far left, Murong Shuqing's smiling eyes widened slightly. How could it be him
Xuanyuan Yi, after a few months of separation, never imagined that the first meeting in the capital would be this Qingfenglou.
A melodious and ethereal piano sounded in the crowded hall, as if it instantly calmed the restlessness of people's hearts, allowing people to calm down. Behind the light gauze curtain, there seems to be a slender figure, but because it can't be seen clearly, it makes people want to take a peek.
A string of pleasant laughter of silver bells should be accompanied by the sound of the piano, but it has a different style. Between the veils, came out a red-clothed girl, who looked like a forest elf, with a pair of unbelievably large eyes glowing with a mischievous and cunning light. The woman walked to the front of the stage and said lightly and playfully: "Welcome everyone to come tonight, the following are the old rules of Miss Haiyue, each table will receive a question, and everyone will write the answer on the paper, which is in line with Miss Haiyue. If you like it, you can make a bid later, if it doesn't match, then you can only see it!"
Huo Zhiqing craned her neck curiously, but unfortunately she couldn't see anything under the heavy veil, she pulled Murong Shuqing's sleeves and whispered, "This lady Haiyue is really arrogant, she has to see if she wants to pay. up!"
Murong Shuqing sat back on the chair beside him, smiling lightly. This is where Haiyue is brilliant. First raise everyone's curiosity, and then arouse everyone's desire to win. The answer is that it doesn't matter, who can bid, she should have already selected it, this is just a formality That's it. After seeing the quirky woman in red leave, she became more and more interested in the long-rumored girl Haiyue.
There was a knock on the door, and the boy in Tsing Yi came to Murong Shuqing with a piece of white paper in his hand, presented it respectfully, and said in a low voice, "Master, this is your topic, write it down and instruct him, and he will be there. Wait outside." After he finished speaking, he placed the white paper on the table lightly, then bent down and stepped out.
Huo Zhiqing was curious about the topic, picked up the white paper, and looked at it carefully.
Looking left and right, there are only four words, Huo Zhiqing frowned, patted her head, and whispered incomprehensibly, "What's the problem?"
Unable to think of it, Huo Zhiqing came to Murong Shuqing and sat down, handed the white paper to her, and asked angrily, "How do you answer this?"
Without reading the question on the white paper, Murong Shuqing poured a cup of tea for Huo Zhiqing, and replied casually, "We don't plan to bid, it doesn't matter whether we answer or not." This little ancestor only needs to drink tea and wait quietly for Haiyue Just come out, as for the question, answer or not, the result is the same.
Huo Zhiqing was unrelenting, how could she not answer Haiyue's question? Gently tugging at Murong Shuqing's sleeve, she used her trump card, blinked her big eyes, raised her little face slightly, and said in her sweet voice, "No, Shu... Big brother, please answer me! please!"
Murong Shuqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She deeply reflected on it, agreeing to bring Huo Zhiqing to Qingfenglou was an extremely wrong decision. Too bad it's too late to regret it now. In desperation, she had no choice but to pick up the white paper and take a closer look, and there were four words written on it - why do you worry
Murong Shuqing almost burst out laughing, what is this topic? Does she want to answer only Du Kang? Cao Cao has never appeared in this world! This Miss Haiyue is really interesting. In general, shouldn't we ask everyone to write a poem, or pick up a pair, or make a riddle or something? Miss Haiyue is also unexpected, and the result is completely up to her, who can give a standard answer
It seems that she guessed correctly, the answer is that nothing matters. After thinking about it casually, he suddenly remembered a very funny answer. Murong Shuqing held back his laughter and swiped his pen on the white paper. The four big characters were neatly aligned below the question.
Before Huo Zhiqing could see what was written clearly, Murong Shuqing called the child in and handed out the white paper.
Although Huo Zhiqing didn't see it clearly, but seeing that Sister Shu Qing wrote so smoothly and confidently, she should have already thought about it. She was very confident in her, so she didn't ask any more questions, but quietly waited for the result.
But if she really saw what Murong Shuqing had written, she would not be so confident!
Some people pondered hard, some people waved at will, in short, the answers were quickly gathered, and they were sent into the inner room shrouded in heavy veils, and handed over to the hands of graceful figures.
The woman in red smiled and walked to the front of the stage, shaking the beautiful bellflower in her hand. Her silver bell-like laughter, and the bright and clean wrists revealed when the sleeves slipped, successfully attracted everyone's attention. Facing the crowd who were looking forward to it, the woman smiled generously: "The one who received the bellflower flowers from the girl, You will be eligible to bid later. If you don't receive it, you can also see the fairy tonight."
As soon as these words came out, some people couldn't sit still, and stood up one after another to see where the children on both sides of the stage were sending the Kikyo in their hands! In my heart, I secretly hope that the flowers will fall on my own. Not long after, the bellflowers had already been delivered. As expected by Murong Shuqing, although there were only a dozen or so people who got the bellflowers, all of them were either beautiful, or had a prominent family background, or were armed with heavy soldiers, or were rich and powerful. Ziqi and his party and Xuanyuan Yi naturally got the Bellflower from the beauty.
The others who didn't get the Kikyo were disappointed, but they didn't dare to make trouble. After all, in the Qingfeng Building tonight, no one wants to make trouble. Besides, even if you get it, you don't have the strength to compete with Haiyue, so why don't you take this opportunity to watch the beauty and watch the excitement by the way, wouldn't it be fun.
Huo Zhiqing waited for a long time, and was about to be disappointed when she saw the child bringing in the bellflower flowers. She exclaimed excitedly, "We have it too, big brother, you are awesome!" She knew that Sister Shu Qing would definitely be able to answer it!
Looking at the glamorous bellflower on the table, Murong Shuqing caressed the petals playfully, not expecting her to have a share, which is really interesting. Thinking of his answer just now, Murong Shuqing laughed softly again.
Suddenly, most of the lights in the hall were blown out, and the sudden darkness caught everyone by surprise. When everyone bowed their heads and talked, the layers of light veils slowly dissipated, in order to avoid missing Miss Haiyue's celestial appearance. Rong, everyone held their breath and stared at the center of the stage. The veil finally dissipated, but there was no beauty or shadow in the center, except for a piano carefully carved from a thousand-year-old red sandalwood.
Before everyone could express their disappointment, a woman sat on the drum directly behind the stage. The woman's face was no longer covered with silk scarves. Murong Shuqing narrowed his eyes slightly to see the woman's appearance. The face as clear as a crescent moon, not like the willow-leaf eyebrows of ordinary women, but the slightly raised eyebrows added a heroic spirit to her beautiful face, a cherry lips, glossy and lustrous. The most special thing is that her eyes are like lacquer, eyes like autumn water, looking forward to the flow, like a vast and deep ocean, which attracts people to explore, but it makes people unable to look up. The azure blue gauze skirt, which was not considered gorgeous, made her skin as crystal clear as jade and as white as snow.
The woman gently jumped off the big drum, looked around at everyone, and said loudly, "Since everyone has come today, I won't say much more. I will play a song for you later. After the song is over, the one with the highest price will win!"
