Zhou Man sat opposite him and said: "But I think your sisters are a bit strange, you help me to ask what happened."
Yin Ru looked puzzled, "What could happen to them?"
"It's not their accident, it's me," Zhou Man said thoughtfully, "You sisters are the most well-informed people in the capital. I suspect that someone spread bad things about me in private, otherwise they wouldn't be hesitant to speak." appearance."
Upon hearing this, Yin put down the book in his hand, thought for a while and said, "Wait a minute."
After all, invite longevity, let him prepare some handicaps for Zhou Man, and he gets up and goes out.
Two quarters of an hour later, he came back with a strange expression on his face, and said to Zhou Man, who was eating with gusto, "It's said that the outside world is good and fears the inside."
Zhou Man retorted, "Why is he afraid of himself? I've never seen him afraid of me."
Yin Ru said, "Also said you beat Bai Shan."
Zhou Man's eyes widened, "Impossible, when did I hit him? And am I that kind of person?"
Yin or spread his hands, "The rumors are like this, but my sisters don't have many people who spread the rumors, they only spread it privately, and they also... the servants in the family occasionally talked about it."
The six elder sisters of the Yin family are well-informed. Naturally, the servants in their family are also particularly sensitive to things like rumors, so even if it is a small-scale rumor, they can know it, and they know it better than ordinary people.
Yin Ru said: "My eldest sister said that the rumors came from the Chunfeng Building, and a private storyteller brought them out when he gave private lectures."
Storytellers are also divided into two types, one is to set up a table in a teahouse and restaurant to tell a story, and the guests all over the building are listeners;
One is to pick up guests, go to the box or go to someone's house to tell people amused.
This type of gossip spreads most easily in the second case.
Zhou Man was puzzled, "Chunfeng Tower? Strange, I haven't offended anyone recently, is this deliberately targeting me?"
Yin shook his head, "It's just gossip, it shouldn't be aimed at."
Thinking of something, Yin couldn't help but smile, "And it's not groundless, someone said they saw you stepping on Bai Shan's feet on the street."
Zhou Man looked confused, and couldn't help asking Keke in his heart, "Is there any?"
Keke: "Yes."
After Keke finished answering, he also helped her recall.
Zhou Man was stunned, Bai Shan flirted with her, why did she step on him
Yin Or looked at her expression and said with a smile: "That seems to be true, and it's not completely a rumor."
Zhou Man: "...which side are you on?"
Yin Yu said: "Although these rumors are not very good for your reputation, they have little effect. Even the imperial censor would not bother to impeach such a trivial matter between husband and wife."
Fear of internal affairs, there are quite a few ministers in the court who are afraid of internal affairs, and everyone talks about it in private, and when they attack people the most, they bring it up for ridicule, and there will be no impeachment by Yu Shigang.
Zhou Man thought about it for a while, and his shoulders slumped, "It's hard to clarify, it's just... someone spreading gossip? It's best not to let me know."
Yin Or thought for a while, got up and said, "Let's go, I'll take you back. If you're really unhappy, there's another way. Go out for a few days with Bai Shan in a gentle and virtuous manner, and maybe the rumors will disappear."
Regarding this matter, Bai Erlang said cheerfully: "Actually, this is not entirely a bad thing, at least no one will ask Bai Shan to go to places like Chunfeng Building in the future."
Zhou Man: "I don't stick to it."
The teacup in Bai Erlang's hand almost fell, "Do you want to play too?"
Bai Shandao: "I haven't heard that Chunfenglou has a good program recently."
Yin Yu said, "It's as if you've watched the usual program."
Ming Da felt that they were all talking on paper, and said: "We can find a time to go to the Chunfeng Tower to have a look. It just so happens that you go out together, and when Man Bao acts gentle and virtuous, the rumors will be self-defeating."
Bai Erlang immediately said: "I'll go to Zhao Liulang tomorrow to ask if there are any good programs in Chunfeng Building."
As soon as Bai Erlang opened his mouth, before he finished speaking, Zhao Liulang patted him on the shoulder excitedly and said, "Okay, good brother, you finally got Qiong, do you know how to play in Chunfeng Tower?"
He looked around and said in a low voice: "But you go as soon as you go, why are you still talking about it in the palace? There are so many eyeliners in the palace, if your majesty and the crown prince know about this, you have to take off a layer of skin?"
Bai Erlang: "What are you thinking? Mingda and I went together. I just wanted to ask you what good shows there are and when they will be performed."
Zhao Liulang was stunned, "You still want to take the princess with you when you visit Chunfeng Tower?"
"Didn't you take your wife with you before?"
"That's different," Zhao Liulang said, "That's because there was a rare performance by an oiran from the south of the Yangtze River, so I took my wife to watch the excitement. Now the performance of Chunfenglou..."
After pondering for a while, Zhao Liulang lowered his voice and said, "The only thing that couples can enjoy together is the dance music performed every Monday and Friday every ten days, but are you sure you want to go?"
Bai Erlang said, "Not only are we going, but Zhou Man and Bai Shan are also going."
Zhao Liulang: "... No, isn't Zhou Man on maternity leave? Going to Chunfeng Tower with a big belly?"
Bai Erlang didn't take it seriously, "What's the matter, she is living a very happy life now, except for the unavoidable outpatient visits, she rests at home the rest of the time, the mountain in Xuanduguan can be climbed, but she can't go there Are you drinking tea and enjoying music in the Spring Breeze Tower?"
Who is going to drink tea in Chunfeng Tower
Zhao Liulang gave him a thumbs up and asked, "When are you going?"
"Let's go on the twenty-fifth day." Twenty-three today, twenty-five the day after tomorrow.
Zhao Liulang immediately said: "Then I'll take my wife for a walk too, let's go together then."
Bai Erlang waved his hand indifferently and said: "See you in Chunfenglou, if you meet, sit together, if you don't meet, forget it."
After the two finished talking, Bai Erlang shook his hands and went back to the Hanlin Academy, while Zhao Liulang continued to patrol with a sword in his arms, his face full of excitement.
This is really interesting, and it feels more exciting than watching an oiran perform.
Zhao Liulang took this matter to heart, and on that day, he called his friends and called several classmates together, and specifically told them to bring his wife with him.
But Bai Shan and the others are very ordinary.
Although they had never been to Chunfenglou, they were curious, but they were not very excited to see the performance.
Can the dance and music of Chunfenglou come from the Jiaofang in the palace
They just went to learn more and spread rumors by the way, and they didn't look forward to the performance.
So they took their time, not in a hurry.
After dinner, Bai Shan and Zhou Man played with the little girl Bai Jingxing, handed her to Mrs. Zheng when it was getting dark, and then they went out holding hands, met Bai Er and the others at the intersection, and went to pick her up. Yin or together.
When we arrived at the gate of Chunfeng Building, the old bustard had been waiting for a long time, and greeted me with a handkerchief, "Oh, gentlemen and ladies are here, please come inside quickly, the seats are reserved for you."
Zhou Man was shocked, "Chunfeng Building can still reserve a seat?"
