In the Wanhua Building.
Zhao Jingyan looked at the crazy man below on the second floor and couldn't help but smile.
"Green Disc, it's the women from Jiangnan who know how to seduce people. Look, they're almost going crazy."
Ludian's eyes were charming and she said with a smile: "I'm joking, we women from the south of the Yangtze River are not as good as those from the capital. It's just that men are rare."
Zhao Jingyan opened the fan with a "pop" sound, shook it a few times and said with a smile: "How is business lately? Is there anyone here looking for trouble?"
Lu Dishe smiled sweetly and said: "With me taking charge of Wanhua Tower, who else dares to disturb Tai Sui? Looking at the recent business, Lu Dishe has to go back to Jiangnan and find some sisters to support the business."
Zhao Jingyan was about to raise the corners of her mouth when her eyes were attracted by a man. He fanned a little and said, "He comes here often recently?"
Ludie looked in the direction he pointed, not daring to confirm, so she asked one more question: "Is this the doctor Zhang Hua you are referring to?"
"Who else could it be besides him?"
Zhao Jingyan sneered.
The dignified head of the Taiyuan Hospital is not studying difficult and complicated diseases at home. Instead, he often comes to the brothel to have fun. No wonder the Taiyuan Hospital is now a mess, with a bunch of quack doctors working in it.
Lu Die smiled and said, "Why are you angry with him? We who run brothels, no matter whether they are imperial doctors or ordinary people, as long as they can get money out of their pockets, they are all Lu Die's distinguished guests."
Zhao Jingyan looked at her deeply. It's strange that the Sixth Miss wanted to bring her to Beijing. Just say this, she was born to eat this kind of food.
At this moment, A Li walked over quietly and whispered: "Master, Miss Six wants to see me."
"oh?"
If you really say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be there. This woman wants to see her. Is there something new about the second young lady
Zhao Jingyan closed her fan fiercely, raised her handsome eyebrows, and said with a smile: "When and where will we make an appointment?"
"At three o'clock and three o'clock, Jin Mansion."
Zhao Jingyan smiled and said, "I'm going to make this appointment."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mr. Turtle in front of the door shouted, "Master, you are here, please come inside!"
Zhao Jingyan looked down, her smile disappeared immediately, and a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.
A Li leaned out to take a look and saw that it was Yin Lifeng, the British prince. He wondered why this gentleman had also come to Kuangqinglou.
"Master, let's go into the house. Are the girls waiting?"
Zhao Jingyan exhaled cold air from her nose and said, "What's the matter? Are you afraid that I and him will take it on?"
A Li smiled and said, "I am so wise and powerful, how can I be as knowledgeable as him?"
Zhao Jingyan rolled her eyes and walked away.
A Li followed immediately.
The night is as black as ink.
In the hall of Jinfu, the lights are brightly lit.
Zhao Jingyan sat upright, put the tea cup on the table, and said with disdain: "This tea smells like mud. I need to get a better one."
Yin Deng pouted his lips angrily, and said sharply: "My young lady is ready to drink tea worth two taels and one penny."
Zhao Jingyan was very fond of this little maid who was good at calculating, and deliberately teased: "What is the identity of your lady, and what is my identity?"
Yin Deng couldn't tolerate others saying anything bad about her young lady, but the person in front of her was the longevity king, so she had to take a deep breath. In the end, he felt a little unwilling and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, although my young lady has a low status and is a housewife, there are countless people in this world who want to beg her. My young lady said that she should be low-key. Don't be like that peacock, except showing off the hair on his butt.
Nothing. "
"Puch!"
When Ali, who was standing at the door, heard this, he couldn't help laughing.
Zhao Jingyan smiled instead of angry, her deep eyes rolling around Yin Deng.
He is just a servant. When facing the majestic prince, not only does he not have stage fright, but he can also say such words. It is true that just like the master, there is the same kind of servant. Those officials in the court would not even dare to fart.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Zhao Jingyan dusted off his robe, opened the fan, and waited for someone to come in.
After a while, Qing Guan came dressed in homely clothes. When she saw Zhao Jingyan sitting in the hall, shock flashed in her eyes.
"Your Majesty, are you here so early?"
Zhao Jingyan smiled deeply and said ambiguously: "This is Miss Six's first date with me, so she doesn't dare to be late."
Qingguan coughed slightly, indicating that what he said was a little too much. If it were any other woman, her reputation would be gone.
Zhao Jingyan didn't care at all, staring at her beautiful face, she turned her back and said, "Sixth Miss, please take a seat."
Qing Guan raised her eyebrows slightly, sat down and said with a smile: "I invite the prince to come over today. Do you have anything to discuss?"
"But for the matter of the second young lady in the house?"
"Exactly." Qingguan didn't hide anything.
A look of unbearability flashed across Zhao Jingyan's face, and she sighed repeatedly: "Let a girl as beautiful as Second Miss marry an old man, it's like a flower stuck in cow dung. What are Sixth Miss' plans?"
Qingguan smiled bitterly, showing a rare look of embarrassment, "I have been thinking hard for several days, but I still got nothing. So I invited the prince to come and discuss it."
Zhao Jingyan's eyes were startled, with a look of surprise on her face.
I originally thought that Gu Qingguan invited him here tonight to tell him the various methods of "making decisions before taking action". I never thought that this extremely smart woman would say "nothing" with a serious look on her face, and also said she would discuss it with him...
The expectations in Zhao Jingyan's heart suddenly turned into deep disappointment. Qingguan didn't look at the expression on his face. She stood up suddenly, walked to the door, looked at the endless dark night, and said softly: "I have been pretending to be crazy and stupid in the Gu Mansion all these years, and no one has put me, the direct descendant of the sixth lady, in the eyes of others." In my eyes, even a little slave can give me a look if it is not Yueniang.
Protecting her to the death, I'm just afraid..."
Qingguan smiled sadly.
The hardships of the early days are still vivid in their minds, and the merciless ridicule of the people in the house is still in their ears. No one knows how they survived. I don’t want to say it because I keep it deep in my heart.
"Only the second sister, she never dislikes my stupidity and helps me overtly and covertly. I must do my best to repay this kindness."
Zhao Jingyan looked at Gu Qingwan, who was shrouded in sadness, her mouth was dry and her tongue was dry, and she was stunned in place.
This mysterious woman had always been indifferent and calculating in front of him. It was the first time that she showed such desolation after sadness.
He was inexplicably heartbroken.
He knew everything about her past as early as when he entered Suzhou Mansion. A girl who was born stupid and whose mother was forced to die. In this wolf-like house of Gu, with only one or two loyal servants to protect her, one can imagine how difficult life is.
"Last autumn, the Gu Mansion wanted to give me to the wise king. When my second sister heard about it, she secretly gave me all her personal money and asked me to leave the Gu Mansion. Her situation now is the same as mine at that time. Your Majesty, How do you think I should repay you?"
Qingguan looked back and smiled, with a cold smile.
As if she was bewitched, Zhao Jingyan walked to her side, leaned close to her, and said softly: "I will help you with this matter."
Qingguan lowered her eyes, and a flash of calculation flashed through her eyes. She felt slightly blessed and said: "If the prince can take advantage of the second sister's matter to bring misfortune to the Gu family, and involve the old Qing Wangfu and Ruiwangfu, Qingguan will definitely be deeply involved. Thanks.”
It seemed like a sap hit Zhao Jingyan on the head. Why did these words sound so familiar? Isn't this what he expected her to do
"Can the prince help Qingguan do it?"
Gu Qingguan slowly raised his face, with a pair of ink-like eyes, half-smiling but not smiling, half-joyed but not happy, deep and distant, slowly meeting his gaze.
Zhao Jingyan suddenly felt short of breath, her head felt empty, and she seemed to not know where she was for a moment.
He nodded involuntarily and said gently: "Leave this matter to me, don't worry."
Gu Qingguan breathed a sigh of relief, bowed his head and said in a moist voice, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zhao Jingyan's heart trembled, she swallowed deeply, and shook her fan a few times in confusion.
"It should, it should."
Qingwan smiled knowingly and left quietly.
Zhao Jingyan stared at her back blankly, a thought flashed in her mind. This woman is like an orchid, delicate and in need of his protection.
When Yin Deng saw King Shou's expression, he felt contempt in his heart and coughed twice.
Zhao Jingyan suddenly came back to her senses, looked around the room, and asked curiously: "Hey, where are the Sixth Miss's people?"
A Li said: "Master, Miss Six has left, it's time for us to go back."
As if to match A Li's words, Yin Deng covered her mouth and yawned hard.
"You said it well, why did you leave?" Zhao Jingyan walked out of the house in confusion.
He shuddered when the cold wind blew, and grabbed A Li's hand fiercely, "What did you promise just now?"
"I promised to help the second young lady. I also said that this matter will bring bad luck to the Gu family, and I want to involve those two families."
Zhao Jingyan suddenly felt a chill coming from the soles of her feet, and said in a daze: "When did you say this?"
Ah Li wished he had a hole to burrow into right now.
Master, Master, you can't just refuse to admit what you said in front of you. You go back on your word like this, and even Ali and I look down on you.
A Li was bold and said with a righteous look on his face: "Master, A Li heard what you said with his own ears. It is rare for Miss Six to ask for help from me, and I must keep my promise."
"Nuo, your head!"
Zhao Jingyan picked up her fan and knocked it hard, then walked away angrily. He took two steps and stopped again.
You Gu Qingwan, you actually used a honey trap for me, first you showed your loyalty, and then you showed weakness, which made me feel pity, and then agreed to your request. Hateful, really hateful.
"King Shou, please go slowly. Please forgive me for not sending him far."
Zhao Jingyan turned around fiercely, gritted her teeth and said to Yin Deng: "Your young lady is just a fox, the most cunning fox in the world. She is full of evil and is very evil." Yin Deng looked at Zhao Jingyan's retreating back and murmured to himself He said: "I am stupid, and I blame my young lady. Even if my young lady is a fox, she is the best at treating doctors and the most beautiful fox in the world, huh..."
