In ancient times, the status of merchants was very low, and it was not easy to have a chance to get in close contact with the leaders of the government. Many merchants knew that they would be slaughtered if they came, but they were willing to wash their necks and wait for the slaughter. Afterwards, their status in Pingyang City will be significantly improved, and some will brag when they go out to do business, and they will more or less generate some economic benefits...
Who would not do such a lucrative thing
Shen Ruolan looked at the door for a while, and then someone came to ask.
She reported her identity, and the gatekeeper heard that she was here to sing, so he brought her into the mansion, and after turning around, led her into an unused servant's house.
"Girl, wait here. When all the guests are here, someone will call you after the banquet begins."
Shen Ruolan looked at the cold room and sighed helplessly.
In ancient times, singers, dancers and dancers were all low-ranking, not like today's stars, they were always guests of honor wherever they went, and ancient singers were collectively called actors, just like quail monkeys, they were all things for people to play with, that is When they go to other people's performances, they treat them as inferior people, but they can only swallow their breath and suffer, not daring to speak.
Just like now, it looks like no one is staying in this room, there is not even a charcoal basin or stove in it, it is icy cold, and it will get goose bumps after staying for a while, but they let her wait here, fortunately she is here today The son came here in her ermine cloak, otherwise she would have been frozen to death.
Shen Ruolan gathered the ermine cloak on her body, stood in front of the window and looked at the empty yard, at this time, Uncle Qi hadn't come over yet, and she didn't know what he was asking her to do here
I really hope something happens to him today, and then he can't come, then she can just leave after singing...
Just as she was praying secretly, the door creaked open, and then a gust of hot air hit her ears, and the unique sweet smell of ambergris and musk made Shen Ruolan's heart skip a beat.
Sure enough, a deep and slightly languid familiar voice came, "It's finally here, I'm all angry."
Shen Ruolan turned around, looked at his unrestrained appearance, and cursed inwardly: "When you get angry, why don't you die from a nosebleed due to heat and poison?"
She suppressed her temper and said in a low voice, "What exactly do you want me to do for you? Tell you, if you kill people and set fire to prison and lose your head, I will never do it!"
Chun Yuxuan smiled, and walked in front of her, the distance between them was so close that they were almost touching each other, he lowered his head and approached her ear, his voice was so low that only the two of them could hear it.
"Don't worry, it's not your turn to do murder and arson if you want to. What the Lord asked you to do is much more important than murder and arson. After the song is over, try to go to the backyard and find someone named Si Aunt Yu, when the time comes, bring out what she gave to you, and it will be considered a success."
Shen Ruolan dodged back, avoiding his hot breath, and said in a low voice: "The backyard is so big, where do you want me to go to find an aunt?"
As soon as he stretched out his hand, he hugged her waist domineeringly, not allowing her to hide, and then he leaned into her ear, and whispered: "Don't move, there are a lot of spies in this house, maybe someone is stealing her." What about us? If you see us discussing things here, maybe it will arouse suspicion, but if we cheat here, hehe, others won't care... "
Hearing this, Shen Ruolan did not move.
You can't ruin a big deal for this little thing!
Seeing her like this, Chun Yuxuan grinned, let go of his hand, and took out a brocade box from his bosom. When he opened it, there was a red gold hairpin inlaid with emeralds, and he whispered beside her ear, "Just put it on." Well, of course she will recognize you."
He took out the hairpin and gently inserted it between her temples, then looked at it for a while as if he was looking at his beloved, and praised: "Mmm, it looks good."
I don't know if it's the hairpin or her people.
Shen Ruolan was a little embarrassed by his look, she turned her face away, "I see, let's go!"
He domineeringly snapped her pointed chin back again, facing himself on his back, his tone was low, but solemn: "Listen, this matter is very important, only success is allowed, no failure is allowed!"
The thick calluses on the man's fingertips do not match Jin Gui's monstrous appearance at all! Shen Ruolan only felt the tingling pain in her chin, her small face wrinkled into a ball in pain, she kept shaking her head, trying to get rid of his restraint.
He watched her little head shaking like a rattle, he grinned, and kindly let go of her jaw.
However, when she turned around in anger, she suddenly slapped her waist and hips, and laughed jokingly: "Do it well, don't let me down."
A man who looked noble and cold on the surface was actually a hooligan. Shen Ruolan's ass seemed to be on fire, and her face was flushed. She glared at him fiercely and gritted her teeth, "I know, hurry up!" Let's go (roll)!"
**
Soon, all the people came, and Mr. Fu Yin hosted a banquet. In order to show their enthusiasm, the merchants all arrived early, but they were afraid that they would lose their manners if they came too early, so they all stayed in their cars and waited until they saw someone start to go. After entering, they all followed in with a whimper, and no one was late at all.
