“During this special period, we must ensure the safety of our young master,” Piaoxue rarely spoke more than once, and then followed. Although Wufeng was stationed in Liangjing, he could not guarantee that those people would not dare to make a move.
“…Then follow from a distance, not too close, otherwise it will spoil the view.” Tingyu hesitated for a moment, but reason prevailed in the end.
Mo Lan and Qin Su came to the street, which was deserted. Apart from lazy men lying drunk on the roadside, there were hardly any people walking around.
Mo Lan particularly liked being able to roam freely at night. None of the cities she passed through had a curfew, otherwise they might be arrested and imprisoned even if they just wanted to take a stroll.
"Have you been to Jiang County before?" The two walked side by side, and Mo Lan could smell the scent of green bamboo emanating from Qin Su.
"I've been here a few times, but each time the stay is very short and rushed, so there's no time to explore." Qin Su glanced at Mo Lan, then pursed her lips.
"Should we warn Le Lou?"
Taking the risk of assassination over a mere argument is already a serious matter. If no retaliation is taken and the other party becomes even more emboldened, it will only lead to more trouble later on.
"Don't worry about it for now. The fact that those ten assassins didn't go back today is already a warning. If Yue Qun makes another foolish move, Han Shuang and I will storm into the music hall. At that point, the losses won't just be a few assassins."
After today's events, Mo Lan is even more eager for Han Shuang to take over Le Lou.
Although the music pavilion is currently in a state of disarray, it can still be restored to its former glory with a little renovation.
"It's good that you have a plan. Just let me know if you need help. After all, we've been through thick and thin together, so it's only natural for us to help each other out." Qin Su sensed from Mo Lan's tone that something else was going to happen.
"Don't worry, I won't hesitate to help you when I need you." Ever since the two of them talked about rebellion that night, Mo Lan felt that everything was negotiable.
The two strolled to the riverbank and, seeing the still brightly lit pleasure boats, Mo Lan immediately became excited. "Which pleasure boat do you think we should go to?"
Qin Su: "...I've never been there either."
Seeing how excited Mo Lan was, he felt that he could still try to save her.
“That’s perfect, it’s my first time too. Let’s have some fun together. I’ve heard that the beauties on the pleasure boats are all delicate and graceful, with delicate breaths and charming figures. I’ve been wanting to go in and see for a long time.”
Hearing Qin Su's explanation, Mo Lan nodded knowingly, patted Qin Su's shoulder, and offered a sincere word of comfort.
"Don't worry, we're here to spend money, so don't feel pressured. Things will work themselves out. So, when it's time to relax, try to relax as much as possible."
Qin Su: "......"
When did he get nervous?
Qin Su looked at Mo Lan, feeling a bit resentful.
Does changing clothes mean you no longer consider yourself a woman?
"Are you sure you want to go?" Qin Su watched Mo Lan walk forward, then suddenly reached out and grabbed her arm. His deep voice rang in her ear, carrying a hint of suppression.
“Of course, I’ve already changed my clothes. It would be a shame not to go. I’ve never been to a brothel before.” As Mo Lan spoke, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind, and she immediately understood that Qin Su was just trying to save face. “Relax, relax. You and I know what happened today. I won’t tell anyone. I swear.”
Indeed, it is true that for a young master to be caught visiting a brothel, while elegant, is certainly beneath his dignity. It was her oversight.
