Mui Kui was very worried afterwards, and dragged Zhuo Xiaolou to ask for a long time if he had beaten her while drunk.

There is also a reason for Mui Kui to care so much, because according to Qingrong, the reason why Mui Kui is not allowed to drink is because she was so excited after drinking the last time, she slapped the court twice in the face, and kicked others. , was stunned to push people straight from the house into the snow. Later, the sacrificial wine went home and raised it for half a month before he dared to come back to the flower street again.

At that time, Zhuo Xiaolou praised "good footwork" after listening to it, and Mui Kui was also very embarrassed.

Now, Pan Kui kept asking around Zhuo Xiaolou: "Xiaolou, did I pinch you? It's inconvenient for you to tell me? Don't be polite to my sister, come and let her see." Zhuo Xiaolou Flicking her hand away, she said indifferently, "You sang a song for half a night, which woke up the cats and dogs in the nearby streets, and kept the small building awake all night. There is nothing else." With a face embarrassed, he said, "That's it, very good, very good."

Zhuo Xiaolou didn't understand where Mui Kui was so good and so good, but she didn't plan to worry about it. For the next few days, she was inquiring about a person like Hua Yue. Qing Rong recalled for a while, but said that she did not remember that Huan Kui had been in contact with a person named Huayue over the years, but a few years ago, there was a very powerful courtesan named Huayue in Yubeifang. Qingrong didn't come to Yubeifang for two years either, so she didn't know very well, but Zhuo Xiaolou's question obviously aroused Qingrong's interest, so the girl took her skirt and went to ask Mui Kui.

It stands to reason that Mu Kui should have become angry and ordered everyone not to mention the name again, but the girl just squatted on the couch, nibbling on the watermelon and shouting: "Ah, that mother-in-law, she should have died in Saibei. We're on our way." Then he smacked his lips, "Why don't you send a letter back."

For this reason, Zhuo Xiaolou was very hesitant. The Yao Suqiang in that story should not be copied by Kui based on the lonely heroine in some unpopular storybook.

She was still hesitating whether to ask more in depth, but she heard her mother outside shouting: "Everything for the Hua Kui Banquet has been delivered, please take a look at the girl, and choose the clothes that suit the girl's eyes." I wiped my face and jumped to the bed to choose clothes. Zhuo Xiaolou looked at the active back, wanted to sigh, and was about to speak to Qingrong, but saw that Qingrong had also eaten the last bite of watermelon, wiped his face carelessly and got up to help Mu Kui choose clothes. So she choked, and had no choice but to take the last bite of the watermelon, wiped her face carelessly, and got up to help Mu Kui choose clothes.

Originally, the oiran banquet was performed by each building in the early spring to launch its own oiran for the new year and conduct a street parade called oiran road. This oiran needs to be more famous in the market last year with more benefactors. But since Mui Kui became the oiran of the Yubei Square, this activity has become a one-man show for Mui Kui alone. After that, the activity is to see which dignitary businessman bids the highest price, and the one with the highest price can hold a beautiful woman overnight. You must know that, as the top courtier, Kui doesn't take many guests. Even if someone offers gold taels, it still depends on whether the girl sees the person who pays gold taels or not. He's a short body and a fat face. No way…

Zhuo Xiaolou felt that, according to this principle, the man who abandoned Mo Yu and was seduced by Mu Kui before was not considered to be dazzling, because if she was replaced, it would be difficult for her to be willing to spend tens of thousands of taels of gold. The woman who slept until now but took the initiative to reach out to her. After thinking about it, Zhuo Xiaolou felt that he was thinking too much, but he didn't know whether he was sorry for Mo Yu or Man Kui. He couldn't think of it, so he sighed and shook his head and stopped thinking about it. Qing Rong lifted the curtains and saw that she was still sitting there with her cheeks on her head and shook her head in a daze.

It turned out that Kui suddenly had a temper and refused to wear the hairpin that he had chosen a few days ago. Several maids and bustards were looking for other hairpins to try on her. Zhuo Xiaolou looked at the trays of exquisite and luxurious accessories, being held in and out by people, the girl in the room was irritated and shouted: "No, I don't want this... How can such an ugly hairpin be worthy of this book? Girl! And this one, whether you have no eyes or no heart, it looks fake at first glance, and you dare to take it!"

She lifted the curtain and entered the room, but was stunned for a moment. Zhuo Xiaolou was always distracted by her usual beauty, but at this moment she looked at her but couldn't say a word.

This girl's eyes were like the waves of autumn water, the corners of her eyes were a touch of pink, rouge was on her lips, and a flying feather was hooked with cinnabar on her forehead. She was wearing a white dress with three layers of wide sleeves. The cuffs were bordered with red silk thread, and three peonies were embroidered around the top. One side of the red cloth was dragged to the ground, covering the white embroidered skirt, and the carmine was red. There are two silk sashes tied to his belt, and the two white jade pendants on the silk sashes make a rattling sound when the wind moves.

Zhuo Xiaolou looked at her from a distance and felt that she was very much like a phoenix reborn from Nirvana in the picture, and very much like a fairy who does not eat fireworks in the Nine Heavens.

Of course, if Kui hadn't covered her head, she wouldn't let people put the hairpin on her head.

Zhuo Xiaolou looked at Mui Kui's face, "The head belongs to the old lady, what can you do to me", and shook his head. He took it and was about to take it for Mui Kui to show it to Jin Buyao, and said, "Sister, take it with you." The whole room fell silent, Mui Kui also glared at her, and Zhuo Xiaolou didn't wait for her to speak. With the words 'I don't', he pointed to the two strands of hair on the cheeks of Mu Kui, and said quietly, "So, she's a woman from a very good family."

So, the oiran banquet is finally about to begin.

Although Mui Kui has always positioned herself as a generation of enchantresses and the like, and it is true that she deserves this title in front of outsiders, but Hua Kui does not only need the word 'demon' to be able to become it, or else the whole Nine out of ten prostitutes/girls in Chang'an can become courtesans. You must know that Mui Kui is by no means an ordinary oiran. She is a little arrogant in front of everyone, but she is still a dignified and gentle image when she goes out with the name of Huajie Yubeifang. Although according to her original temperament, it is really not easy to be dignified and gentle. Anyway, during the days of Zhuo Xiaolou in Yubeifang, she basically either saw this girl swearing and fighting, or she saw this girl fighting and swearing, and she had never seen other elegant activities.

That day, the flower street was extraordinarily lively. The attic was covered by the nobles, and the ordinary people only crowded on both sides of the road. Although they were pushing and shouting, the main road was still wide. They just waited for the golden gong to sound and watched the oiran walk the road.

Zhuo Xiaolou and Qingrong both stood on both sides of the road with nine-square palace lanterns. When the golden gong sounded, Zhuo Xiaolou saw the appearance of Kui in full costume.

There was no superfluous expression on the girl's face, not even a smile. She only dignifiedly tucked her hands into her sleeves, and the flying feathers on her forehead made her more beautiful and refined. Behind her, followed by the male waiter who followed her footsteps and the boy on the back of the Suqin, Zhuo Xiaolou was almost stunned, but Qingrong glared at her, as if he was laughing at her unpromising, Zhuo Xiaolou also I didn't care, I just waited for Punkui to come over, and then followed Punkui's footsteps and walked slowly forward in the flying flowers.

In Zhuo Xiaolou's eyes, Chang'an City seemed to come alive in such a bustling bustle. She remembered that day, the Ao Temple in the distance reflected the light of the early morning, the bells on the eaves rang in the wind, and the flower street The pear trees on both sides of the road are blooming, and they are sprinkled under the feet of people along the wind. There are also a few camellias overflowing from the top of the wall. I don’t know which building next to the child pulls his partner to lie on the top of the wall and stretch his neck to watch the fun.

It seems that there is peace and harmony.

I don't know if it's because the people of the imperial capital are of better quality, but in such activities, the masses maintain a high level of consciousness and do not make any noise, so the voice of the poets singing along the way is particularly clear. When someone did not know if they were dumbfounded, something fell from the attic and hit the person below, causing a burst of yelling. In this situation, Zhuo Xiaolou couldn't help covering her lips while holding on to the lantern. She followed the scolding and looked up, only to see a man in white sitting by the railing in the attic slowly standing up, with his hands on the railing, staring at Looking at the team downstairs, there was an abyss like ink in his eyes. A blue-robed young man beside him seemed to ask something, but she couldn't hear it clearly. On the contrary, the young servant who went downstairs to calm down the insults had a loud voice: "Upstairs is the current seventh prince and Jiangnan Major General Bai, how can you not spit out ivory from your dog's mouth here!"

Zhuo Xiaolou was startled, and he didn't know if Punkui heard her, so he looked at her secretly, only to see that Punkui still lowered his brows and moved forward indifferently. She sighed and walked forward.

Zhuo Xiaolou was ignorant and knew how to walk halfway, and suddenly thought, the seventh prince, isn't he the one who will dance tomorrow night

When Ye Kui's sedan chair had already arrived outside the Seventh Prince's Mansion, Zhuo Xiaolou still tangled her sleeves and said, "Sister, why don't we go?" Huan Kui bent down and touched her head, "Inside But there are several boxes of night pearls waiting for me, if I don’t rescue them, my sister won’t sleep well at night.” Zhuo Xiaolou wanted to say something, but Mu Kui had already packed his clothes and was led in, so Zhuo Xiaolou had no choice but to say something. Comfort yourself, now that Kui is living such a nourishing life, how can he still remember the embarrassment at the beginning, he is more concerned, and he is more concerned.

Outside the house, Kui took off the fox fur and handed it over to the servant. The seventh prince in the room was talking to people about these things, and it seemed that he heard someone coming to report it, and he smiled heartily: "Although there are many gentle and lovely women in Jiangnan, I am not a vain name, Chang'an Hua Kui. Shu Yan, You're going to have a feast for your eyes tonight."

Hearing the word Shuyan, Zhuo Xiaolou felt the body of the man beside him tremble, but when he looked up, there was no change in her face. Zhuo Xiaolou tugged at her sleeve and looked at her with very encouraging eyes, but I don't know if Mu Kui didn't understand her subtext. Girl, please."

Kui came back to his senses, pulled the housekeeper and asked quietly, "Bai Shuyan, Bai Yi?"

The housekeeper was overjoyed and felt that this girl was really well-informed, "The girl is right, it is Major General Bai Yibai who is sitting in the hall."

Zhuo Xiaolou pulled her sleeve, "Sister... Are you still going in?"

Mui Kui looked at Zhuo Xiaolou with an unbelievable expression, then looked at the housekeeper with an unbelievable expression, and then turned around decisively as if he had woken up suddenly. The housekeeper grabbed her and said anxiously, "Miss, where are you going? The Seventh Highness is still waiting inside." Mui Kui's expression changed, and he said, "Please tell the Seventh Highness that Akui is not feeling well tonight and cannot Dance."

The housekeeper was startled, and hurriedly stopped her, saying, "What are you talking about, girl, you are already at the door, why are you suddenly feeling unwell?"

With a tangled face, Yan Kui had to pretend to be in pain, covered his stomach and whispered, "My stomach hurts all of a sudden, this is out of my control..."

This time the butler's face also became painful, "Girl, don't be joking, if you leave us now, it will be a dead end."

The girl's face was blushing, and she said leisurely: "But the housekeeper, I want to loose..."

The housekeeper thought for a long time in disbelief, and his face was blushing, and persuaded: "Girl, hold back..."

Mui Kui pulled his sleeves out of the butler's hands with all his strength, "...I can't bear it anymore!"

At this time, there were three clappings in the room, indicating that the dancer could enter. The housekeeper was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged, "Don't scare the servants, girl, it's all at the door. If the girl changes her hexagram, it will not only be the servants, but also everyone in Yubeifang."

Zhuo Xiaolou pulled the sleeves of Punkui, looked at the housekeeper, then looked at Punkui, and finally looked at the brightly lit hall, she remembered what her mother once said about fate, like a little old man who has experienced vicissitudes of life. Madam-like, sighed.

He sat on the side and watched her walk up the lobby surrounded by her, with a red ribbon tied at the end of her hair, dancing slightly with the night wind. The adult on the side patted his shoulder lightly, stroked his beard in drunkenness and said, "Shu Yan doesn't know what kind of person this Kui is..."

He took a glass of wine and drank it, his eyes blurry.

No one can learn the dance of Mui Kui.

Zhuo Xiaolou probably didn't know what Hua Niang was before she entered Yubei Square, but she knew such a maid, and it was all because of her dancing.

Fenghuaxueyue Peerless Hall, Mui Yi danced in Chang'an.

Her dance is overwhelming.

Starlight and moonlight all surrounded the red silk tail. When the moon was sparse, the thin light reflected only those eyes full of temptation.

After the dance was over, the dancers walked out of the hall at a steady pace. She stood on the hall and looked around and smiled, lightly lifting her thin lips: "Chang'an Kui, I have seen you all."

His hand trembled slightly, and the wine in the jade cup spilled a lot.

Seeing Bai Yi's soulless appearance, the seventh prince at the top became very interested. He probably felt that the women in Chang'an had earned a lot of face for their Chang'an people, although most of his subordinates felt that they would let a woman It seems a little bit of a loss of face for the people of Chang'an to pick up the wind for a general. But the seventh prince only thought that Bai Yi had never seen such a beautiful woman, so he greeted Kui proudly: "I haven't seen you for a long time, and A Kui's dance is getting more and more graceful, come and see Jiang Nan Bai soon. Major General."

Mui Kui really didn't seem to know him, so he turned around and blessed him, "Pu Kui has seen Major General Bai."

The seventh prince pulled Pun Kui into his arms, turned his head and said to Pun Kui with a smile: "Why are you so late today, you have really gotten bigger and bigger." After that, he raised his hand to squeeze her. He hurriedly turned his face away and said with a smile, "Akui has been feeling unwell recently, so he can only cover his face with a veil so as not to expose the sickness and hurt everyone's Yaxing." After that, he thought that this might be an opportunity, It made the seventh prince feel that he was obviously ill and still willing to dance for him, so it seemed that he had a very noble sentiment, and he especially cared about him as a prince. So she further snuggled into the arms of the seventh prince, and said in a sullen voice, "If it wasn't because the seventh prince personally ordered, how could Akui insist on finishing the 'Jing Po Chang'? After a dance tonight, it's already Akui. the limit."

The Seventh Prince was really moved, he hugged her, and said with pity, "It's my fault, I made A Kui come to dance in front of people even though he was sick." Wang Te allowed her to go down to rest first."

Although everyone wanted to see more of the Hua Kui in Chang'an, who would dare to say no more in front of the prince, so they had to express how well Hui could dance such a difficult dance so well even though he was sick. Smart, beautiful, gentle and docile, generous and righteous.

Yan Kui withdrew with a compliment. At that time, Bai Yi was pouring himself a drink, as if he didn't hear or see anything, but when she was about to push out the threshold, she raised her head slightly and looked at her. There was a hint of coldness in his eyes, and something she couldn't read, so she froze and walked faster.

Zhuo Xiaolou originally planned to go outside the mansion to eat something before coming back, but when he saw her, he came out so quickly and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Why is my sister so fast, didn't the Seventh Prince reward you?"

With her skirt in hand, Mui Kui walked quickly towards the direction where the sedan chair was parked, and scolded, "What is the reward, your sister, am I someone who covets wealth!" Zhuo Xiaolou froze in place, dumbfounded.

From this incident, Zhuo Xiaolou can see that Kui did not forget Bai Yi. As for this not forgetting, it means not forgetting purely literally, or not forgetting emotionally. Zhuo Xiaolou, who is only ten years old, does not. So clear.

The author has something to say: Looking at those punctuation marks that appear at the beginning, but don't know how to type them, I feel that I am not cool at all.
