The officer and soldier roared before attacking, simply because he wanted the other party to surrender quickly and give him some benefits to avoid disaster.

Unexpectedly, the man in the carriage did not move at all, and the driver did not show any intention of rewarding him with money.

He was really enraged and swung the whip towards Chang Geng.

Chang Geng really didn't expect that Li Zhiyuan's men were so lawless and openly extorting.

Just as he was about to take action, he saw the soldier who had his nose in the air a second ago suddenly trembled as if having a seizure, and fell to the ground with a thud.

Chang Geng was confused and quickly shrank back, keeping a distance from the person lying on the ground.

"You all saw it! He fell down on his own, I didn't touch him! Don't try to take advantage of this opportunity to cheat!"

Su Qingning straightened his sleeves calmly, hiding his achievements and fame.

"Boss!"

"Boss, what's wrong with you?!"

The officers and soldiers around were also confused, not understanding why their superior collapsed without a word. They all rushed to rescue him, and no longer cared about Su Qingning and the others.

Chang Geng looked left and right, becoming even more confused.

"How strange! How can someone do evil in broad daylight? Could it be that... you are bewitched by your handsome face?"

He was laughing foolishly with his hands on his face, but was suddenly hit in the face by Xiao Huaishuo.

"Pull the car over!"

He turned around and whispered to Su Qingning:

"Why don't you guys go in and take a look before you take action?"

"good."

Su Qingning was also a little curious about how beautiful the courtesans in ancient times were. She immediately took the hand that Xiao Huaishuo extended to her and got off the carriage.

It was almost dusk, and all the colorful lanterns on the street were lit up.

This street should be the legendary red-light district, with brothels all over the street.

All I could see were prostitutes leaning against windows to solicit customers, young men riding horses with laughter, and many ordinary people who came to eat melons...

It's really lively here.

Su Qingning was simply glad that she had changed Xiao Huaishuo's appearance today. Now he looked like a wealthy kid with decent looks.

Although sometimes people looked at them twice because of their demeanor, they did not cause any trouble because of their over-exaggerated appearance like before.

As soon as they got off the car, they saw a group of soldiers escorting a man in red clothes into a brothel not far away.

The old duck inside saw him coming and immediately came out to greet him with a big smile on his face.

"Hey, Master Li is here! Master Li, please come in! What a coincidence, our Yinghua caught a cold today, and I'm afraid she won't be able to participate in the Oiran selection, so she's sulking in the room alone!"

Li Zhiyuan took a steady step forward and smiled confidently.

"Wow? Go see her. She'll get better when she sees you."

Su Qingning was almost vomiting at his mysterious self-confidence.

Xiao Huaishuo was very calm, he held her in his arms with one hand and used the other hand to divert the bustling crowd, for fear that someone would bump into her.

The two of them followed him into Zuiyuelou and sat down in a private room.

The selection of the oiran must have started for some time, because when they entered, there was a woman in red standing on the stage and dancing.

On the other side of the stage sat a dozen women, many of whom had silk flowers in their baskets.

Each silk flower costs one or two taels of silver, just like the modern gift voting on a certain platform. The patrons would buy flowers and vote for the girl they like, and the one who gets the most silk flowers today would be the "Oiran" of this year.

Su Qingning secretly thought that this old man didn't know how to make money. He ate melon seeds while watching the beauty dance.

"Tsk tsk... look at the way she rolls over and kicks her legs sideways smoothly, her slender waist that can be held in one hand, and her charming eyes..."

Su Qingning's mouth was grinning so much that it almost reached his ears, and he wished he could give the beautiful sister some silk flowers as a reward.

When she turned around, she saw someone peeling sunflower seeds for her with his head buried in his heart with an expressionless face.

"You think she's ugly?"

“It doesn’t look good.”

"whispering sound……"

Su Qingning thought, just pretend.

The level of the young lady on the stage, if she were to post it on a modern TikTok, would definitely get a million likes.

Even a straight woman like her was fascinated, let alone a real man!

But in a flash she fell into a pair of extremely focused and gentle eyes.

"Not as pretty as you."

After a pause, he added seriously:

"You look the best."

“Ahem…”

Su Qingning's heart suddenly tightened, her face turned red, and she almost choked on her own saliva.

"Eat slowly. No one is competing with you for the food."

Xiao Huaishuo quickly put down the sunflower seeds in his hand, handed her a glass of water, and patted her back gently.

“Cough cough… cough cough…”

The two were so close that they could hear each other's breathing. Su Qingning's heart beat faster.

I thought to myself, there is no one competing with me for food, but there are always villains who want to tease me!

This guy looks like an innocent golden retriever, but he is actually very good at it! He is very good at saying sweet words!

"That's enough. You... don't disturb me from watching a beautiful woman dancing!"

Su Qingning frantically pushed away someone's hand that was almost trying to hold her in his arms, and cast her eyes towards the stage downstairs.

Soon, the dozen or so singing girls on the stage finished their performances, and the patrons below rushed to buy silk flowers and throw them into the baskets in front of them.

However, many people were still shouting that they were still not satisfied, as the Yinghua girl who had just arrived a few months ago had not yet performed.

The old man tried to excuse himself, saying that Miss Yinghua was ill and couldn't come out today. But the guests refused to give up and insisted that Miss Yinghua come out.

The old man was helpless, so he sent someone to ask Miss Yinghua if she was feeling better.

Su Qingning could see the excited looks of the patrons even when she was sitting on the second floor, and she couldn't help but become curious about what this oriole looked like.

Not only did she hook Li Zhiyuan's soul, but she also made almost all the men present unable to stop!

After a while, a graceful figure was slowly reflected on the gauze curtain on the third floor.

The maids deliberately did not lift the veil, and the woman's figure was half-hidden behind the veil.

At this time, the lights in Zuiyue Tower were dim, and the beauty behind the veil was looming, looking at her gave a dreamlike feeling.

On the contrary, it is more appetizing than showing a beautiful face in front of others.

I saw the woman bowing across the veil and speaking softly:

"Thank you all for your kindness. I caught a cold today and I am afraid I will pass the disease on to you. I can only play a song for you behind the curtain..."

The guests below could no longer sit still and immediately started shouting excitedly:

"Miss Yinghua! Miss Yinghua is so beautiful!"

"Miss Yinghua is worthy of being the top star of Zuiyuelou! In theory, there is no need to select an oiran today! Miss Yinghua defeated all those mediocre beauties with just one move. What else can compare to this?"

"I never thought that I would be able to see such a stunning beauty in my lifetime. I really wanted to travel far to the world to attend such a stunning banquet and see the beauty of the world! This trip is worth it!"

“…”

Su Qingning was puzzled. Looking through the curtains, this woman did have a nice figure and good looks, but she wasn't so pretty that she could drive all men crazy, right?!

Oh, there is another example. Look at her husband who is too lazy to even take a second look at the top pick.

You can tell at first glance that he is not an ordinary man!

The sound of the piano slowly flowed out from Yinghua's jade fingers. Upstairs and downstairs, everyone was quiet, both men and women, all with an obsessed look on their faces.

Su Qingning frowned even more tightly and muttered softly:

"This piano sound...why is it so weird?"

"This is Beili's illusion! She has been using her voice and piano music to confuse others since she appeared. The people sitting here have no inside information, so they were easily fooled by her."

He stretched out his hand, pulled Su Qingning toward him, and continued in a low voice:

"Quickly follow the method I taught you yesterday to circulate the truth in your body! This person's illusion technique is not very advanced. Although it will not affect you, it will be bad for your body if you listen to it for a long time!"

But at this moment, Xiao Ai's rat-picking roar rang in both of their minds:

[Ahhh! Sister Su! She’s coming! She’s coming with all the rage!]

[It’s this person! She’s the adulterer of Beili Kingdom! She was the one who bewitched Li Zhiyuan and made him sign an agreement with the Beili-Nanjiang coalition! ]

[It was because of her that Li Zhiyuan agreed to betray his brother-in-law and his family and leaked the border army intelligence to the coalition forces! He also set a trap with them and seriously injured his brother-in-law! ]

[Ahhh! I’m so mad! Sister Su! Fuck her!!!]
