The woman was lying on the ground half face down, thanks to a shed built at the entrance of Tianxiang Pavilion, and a blanket on the ground, which was neither hot nor hard, otherwise it would have to be broken and burnt.
Xu Fengxian stepped forward, squatted down and brushed the hair from her cheeks.
After seeing half of the woman's profile, Xu Fengxian gasped.
Forehead darling, where is this immortal in distress
She has opened a brothel for many years, plus several years of experience in theater, she has never seen such a stunning sight in the world.
Dressed a bit shabby...
Dressed as a woman again.
If you're not a virgin, you'll lose out on the price.
But she couldn't hold back that she was born beautiful, and some guests were like mature and charming women.
"Bring it in!" Xu Fengxian said to the maid.
"Yes."
The personal maid Ginkgo called a few powerful maids and carried the women into the lobby.
The second floor is now full, so it has to be placed in the backyard wing first.
Gu Chengfeng just came back from outside, the carriage was parked in the stable next to the backyard, he walked in through the back door, and saw Tianxiang Pavilion's maid and maid carrying a woman dressed as a civilian woman.
He frowned: "Stop."
He is now a celebrity in Tianxiang Pavilion, and with the support of a formidable "brother", even Xu Fengxian dare not stand up to him.
Ginkgo and his party stopped with a smirk.
Ginkgo smiled and greeted, "Young Master Chang."
Xiao Heng borrowed Long Yi's name, and Gu Chengfeng borrowed Chang Jing's name, they were nothing.
Gu Chengfeng glanced at the woman who was being carried by the servants, and he said why Xu Fengxian was so kind and took in a peasant woman casually, she turned out to be a beauty.
Ginkgo Gan explained with a smile: "This lady fainted at the door of our Tianxiang Pavilion. Mrs. Xu was very kind. Let's carry her in first and wait until she wakes up."
Gu Chengfeng snorted coldly and said, "Humph, Xu Fengxian is afraid to force Liang to become a prostitute?"
Ginkgo was powerless to refute.
After all, her wife is such a piss.
"I want this man."
Asking Xu Fengxian to let him go, Xu Fengxian definitely quit, but if he asked him to come to his troupe, Xu Fengxian shouldn't have much objection.
Originally, today's Tianxiang Pavilion is supported by his drama.
"This..." Ginkgo struggled for a while, then said, "Okay, I'll go talk to Madam first. But maybe, this person can't sing."
Gu Chengfeng said unreservedly: "I have the final say on whether or not to sing. Before I try her singing, don't touch her."
This request is not too much. At that time, let Mrs. Xu come over and listen to her singing together. If she can't sing, it will not be too late to get her to pick up the guests.
Ginkgo ordered the maid and her party to carry the woman into the wing.
Gu Chengfeng has a play tonight, and he has to prepare it right now.
As soon as he left, Ginkgo immediately instructed the four maids in the house: "You guys, take good care of her. When she wakes up, remember to report to me, and don't let her escape!"
If you escape, the lady will peel off a few of them!
One of the maids patted her chest and said, "Girl Ginkgo, don't worry! We must keep her under control! Never let her step out of the house!"
…
At You Shi, Tianqiong Academy was closed.
Zhong Ding and Zhou Tong, a group of eight, joined Gu Jiao and Gu Xiaoshun at the gate of the courtyard.
They even had the carriages ready, three in all.
The other six people, three in one, Zhong Ding, Zhou Tong, Gu Jiao, and Gu Xiaoshun in one.
Just as Zhou Tong was standing beside the carriage and motioned for Gu Jiao and Gu Xiaoshun to get on the carriage first, Yuan Xiao and Zhao Wei came out with their book bags.
Yuan Xiao belonged to Mingfengtang, Zhao Wei and Gu Xiaoshun were in the same class, and both belonged to Mingyuetang.
When they saw Gu Jiao and the others looking like they were going to go out, they walked over to Gu Jiao at the same time.
Yuan Xiao asked, "Luo Lang, where are you going?"
Gu Jiao said frankly, "Go to Tianxiang Pavilion."
Yuan Xiao was stunned: "Tian, Tianxiang Pavilion? What kind of place do you go to?"
No, what's so strange about where this kid goes
He went to the brothel on the first day he came to Shengdu, okay
Yuan Xiao said resentfully, "Didn't you agree last time, do you have to take us with you when you go to Joy?"
Gu Jiao: I'm not here to be happy.
Zhong Ding cleared his throat: "Cough, that's a theater, not a brothel!"
Yuan Xiao hummed, "One meaning."
There are also theaters in Shengdu for purely listening to opera, but it is definitely not Tianxiang Pavilion.
The predecessor of Tianxiang Pavilion was the brothel, it just changed the signboard and recruited a troupe to continue doing business.
"You, are you going?" Yuan Xiao tugged at Zhao Wei's sleeve, trying to make himself an ally.
Zhao Wei said solemnly: "It's not good, we are all scholars, and we shouldn't hang around in the land of fireworks." He said, the conversation changed, "But Rokuro is still young and unfamiliar with life, he must go. , we should also do our best to the friendship of the landlord."
Gu Jiao: "..."
The surname is Zhao, you don't seem to be from Shengdu, right? You are from the Yan State Qidu.
Zhao Wei murmured to Yuan Xiao: "You, you are from Shengdu, you entertain."
Yuan Xiao raised his chest: "Just entertain!"
Because of their participation, Zhou Tong and Zhong Ding couldn't compete, so they had to go to the other two carriages respectively.
After getting into the carriage, Zhao Wei gave Gu Xiaoshun a strange look and asked, "Are you going too?"
Gu Xiaoshun nodded and said, "Yes, Rokuro said to take me to see him."
Yuan Xiao patted him on the shoulder meaningfully: "Liulang's fellow villagers are my fellow villagers, everything is covered by me, Bao Jun is satisfied!"
Gu Xiaoshun looked blank, as if something was wrong.
After the carriage drove for a while, Zhao Wei suddenly said in a low voice, "Hey, have you heard? Something happened to the Han family."
Yuan Xiao asked, "Han family? Han Che's Han family?"
There are many representatives of the Han family, such as Concubine Han, Grandpa Han, General Han, Shilang Han, etc., but they only met Han Che in the juju competition, so he was inevitably mentioned.
Zhao Wei nodded: "Yes, it's Han Che's house. I helped the Master take the test papers back to the duty room in the afternoon. When I passed by the dean's duty room, I heard him talk about the Han family with Master Wu and several other masters. "
"What the hell is going on?" Yuan Xiao was an impatient person and couldn't stand Zhao Wei's sluggishness.
Zhao Wei said cautiously: "The second master of the Han family is dead."
Yuan Xiao is a native of Shengdu, and has heard a little about the relationship of the Han family. He sorted it out in his mind: "Han Che's... second uncle?"
Zhao Wei said: "It seems to be."
Yuan Xiao scratched his heart and said, "What's wrong with him, tell me quickly, don't ask me a question, answer me, it's killing me!"
Zhao Wei was still warm: "It happened last night. I heard Dean Cen say that the eldest grandson of the emperor has returned to the capital, and the second master of the Han family assassinated the eldest grandson in the middle of the night, but was caught by the monarch, and the monarch Longyan was furious. , and put him to death."
In fact, it was not the monarch who executed him, but the grandfather Han who justly killed relatives and cleaned up the door.
However, the news will inevitably be inaccurate in the process of dissemination.
Gu Jiao listened carefully.
The rumored eldest grandson has returned to the capital
Then the Han family dared to assassinate the emperor at the feet of the emperor
are you crazy
She always felt that things were full of doubts, maybe the truth was not what Zhao Wei knew.
Yuan Xiao's curiosity was all hooked: "Assassination of the eldest grandson is a serious crime, didn't the monarch commit the crime to the Han family?"
Zhao Wei said: "The crime was convicted, the Han family lost a mine, and the official position of Han Shilang was also removed."
The mine is the foundation of the Han family. Losing a mine is like a broken arm.
They didn't know Han Yong's ability, nor did they know that Han Yong had endured forty-nine tortures, and Han Yong was the real right-hand man of the Han family.
"Have you seen the eldest grandson of the emperor? What does he look like?" Gu Jiao said suddenly.
Zhao Wei shook his head: "I'm from Qidu, ask Yuan Xiao."
Yuan Xiao said: "I have never seen the eldest grandson of the emperor. He left Shengdu at a very young age and went to Guanshan to guard the emperor's mausoleum with the abolished concubine. He only comes back once every two years, but he only goes to the National Teacher's Hall, and there are no outsiders at all. chance to meet him."
"What's his name?" Gu Jiao asked.
"Shangguanqing." Yuan Xiao said.
"Qing."
Gu Jiao was lost in thought.
…
During the conversation, the carriage arrived at Tianxiang Pavilion.
Zhou Tong and Zhong Ding's carriage was in front, and they stopped first.
Zhou Tong hurriedly jumped off the carriage and came to look for Gu Jiao.
"Rokuro!"
He opened the curtain for Gu Jiao.
Yuan Xiao took his hand away and hummed dissatisfiedly, "Do you need to play the curtain?"
Zhou Tong said coldly, "I'm Rokuro's classmate! I'll sit in the front row of him!"
Yuan Xiao hehe said: "I played with Rokuro! The arena is like a battlefield, we are the same robe!"
How can you say that you have no clothes, and you share the same robe with your son!
Zhou Tong failed in the debate, and his face instantly turned black.
After Gu Jiao got off the carriage, no one paid attention. She asked Gu Xiaoshun to follow them first. She went to the second floor to find Gu Chengfeng.
Gu Chengfeng was not in the room, he went to the backstage on the first floor to prepare for the upcoming drama.
Gu Jiao touched her chin, hesitating whether to go directly to Gu Chengfeng or—
Not looking.
Gu Jiao left.
However, she did not return to the lobby immediately, she went to the small firewood house in the backyard.
The Xiaochaifang is the most secluded room in the corner of the backyard. Next to it is a temporary wing. It is generally used by Xu Fengxian to detain various actors or women of unknown origin.
Although Xu Fengxian is a bit unscrupulous in her actions, she has to admit that she does have some ability.
Xu Fengxian had a small golden jar, which was obtained from exploiting actors and girls. The last time Gu Jiao saw her buried under the banyan tree outside the firewood house.
Gu Jiao has been jealous of Xu Fengxian's gold for a long time.
There were too many guests at the moment, and Xu Fengxian couldn't care about the backyard, so Gu Jiao wanted to dig out her gold.
Xu Fengxian is a prudent person. The color of the soil surface after digging will be different from that of the place that has not been dug, so Xu Fengxian planted a small flowerbed here, and turned the ground every few times.
Makes it impossible to see where it was newly dug.
Gu Jiao didn't care, digging from the beginning to the end, she couldn't believe that she couldn't dig.
Gu Jiao took out her dagger and started digging, turning herself into a little excavator.
Digged a hole, no.
I dug another hole, but nothing.
Gu Jiao didn't believe in evil, she moved her feet that were about to go numb to the side and continued digging.
Digging and digging, she faintly felt that something was wrong.
As if someone was staring at him.
She turned around strangely, and saw a woman dressed as a civilian woman, but she was suffocatingly beautiful.
The woman squatted on the ground, holding a large, red watermelon in her left hand and a copper spoon in her right hand.
Gu Jiao is digging soil, she is digging watermelon.
She puffed out her cheeks and ate, while watching Gu Jiao digging the soil intently.
Gu Jiao: "..."
…
Canglan Women's College.
Xiao Heng came out of Linglong Pavilion and went to Lingbo Academy.
He went to pick up Xiao Jingkong from school, and at the same time he also sent Xiao Jingkong to Master Cheng for tutoring.
In addition to Xiao Qingkong, the children who are tutoring today also have his new tablemate, the little princess.
Xiao Heng wrote on the paper, "I'm sorry for Master Cheng, I may have to pick him up later."
Master Cheng smiled: "It's okay, I'll take him to dinner."
After saying goodbye to Master Cheng, Xiao Heng got into the carriage.
The driver looked around and asked in a low voice, "Sir, where are we going?"
"Go to the outer city." Xiao Heng said.
The driver was taken aback for a moment, and asked in a low voice, "Master, has no one been watching us recently?"
Xiao Heng has been closely watched by the Han family, so he did not dare to go anywhere, lest the Han family find out the connection with Gu Jiao from him.
But something happened to the Han family today.
All the people Han Shizi sent to follow were removed.
The reason for the accident in the Han family was that the second master of Han assassinated the eldest grandson of the emperor.
The eldest grandson…
"Your Highness the eldest grandson—"
This is what Zhang Dequan shouted out to the night last night.
Who is Zhang Dequan calling
Was the eldest grandson nearby at the time
Did he also get assassinated
Or-
Xiao Heng did not dare to think further.
He urgently needs to find out what happened last night, and he needs an answer.
The coachman asked in a low voice, "Sir, where are we going to the outer city?"
Xiao Heng said with deep eyes, "Tianxiang Pavilion."
