"Yes, Miss Qianqian."
When the two sides fought, the onlookers and the arrogant young master all changed their expressions quickly.
When did the security guards at Jinzhaolou become so powerful?
But in an instant, all of the young master's followers were thrown out with wailing.
The young master's face turned green, "You actually...actually!! Wait, just wait for me!"
He ran away without saying anything.
There was silence in the hall for a moment.
Qian Qian smiled charmingly, "I'm really sorry for disturbing your mood. Mother Yang, please serve everyone a table of good wine and good food as my apology."
"Yes, okay." Mother Yang responded and immediately greeted them in a tactful manner.
Listening to the wailing outside, many people swallowed secretly.
There is only one brothel as tough as this one in the whole of Kyoto, and that is Jinzhaolou.
Although Jinzhaolou has many rules and regulations, and it doesn't look like a brothel, but the important people like the officials of the imperial court like to come here to have a drink and listen to music.
This instantly raised the level of Jinzhaolou.
Whether it's the girls in Jinzhaolou's art of playing chess, calligraphy and painting, or their poetry and songs, or the various food and drink arrangements in Jinzhaolou itself, they are truly incomparable to other brothels.
Qian Qian ignored them and went upstairs. When she came up, she saw Jiuer lying on the railing, watching with great interest.
Qian Qian snorted lightly and walked past her.
Jiuer immediately followed, "Sister Beauty, Jinzhaolou is so amazing!"
"Have you had enough fun outside?"
Jiuer nodded and shook her head, "I haven't played enough. It's getting late. I have to come back to eat and sleep."
Qian Qian went straight back to her room on the second floor, and Jiuer followed her in.
Qian Qian stopped and looked at her, "Why are you following me?"
"That's right, there's something I want to ask you..." Jiu'er asked eagerly, "Sister Beauty, do you know Su Jingxing?"
"Not very familiar with her." Qian Qian took the hairpin off the woman's head.
Without the hairpin, because her hairstyle is so simple, it’s hard to tell the gender just by looking at her back.
Jiuer stared at his back and hair, carefully analyzing and exposing her, "But on the first day we met, the tone you used when you talked about Su Jingxing seemed like you were very familiar with him~"
Qian Qian turned around, bent down and pinched her little face with a fake smile, "You are smart. Su Jingxing never comes to places of entertainment except for social events. How do you know that I am familiar with him?"
Without waiting for Jiu'er to answer, he continued, "Go ahead, what do you want to ask me?"
Thinking that she needed help from others, Jiuer endured the pinching on her cheek.
"I just want to ask, do you know what Su Jingxing likes?"
"Are you going to give him whatever he likes?"
Jiuer nodded, "He is my destined husband, so of course I have to treat him well."
Qian Qian stood up and said, "I don't know. I'm not that familiar with him."
Jiuer was a little disappointed, but soon she regained her motivation. If you can't find the answer by asking, just try and find it yourself.
At this time, Qian Qian suddenly looked at her, "You smell so bad, have you showered?"
Jiuer denied it, "Although I haven't showered yet, I don't stink."
She sniffed herself and said, "From childhood to adulthood, I have never smelled bad. My sweat is always fragrant. If you don't believe me, smell it yourself."
She took the initiative to move herself towards Qian Qian without any defense.
Qian Qian looked at her and suddenly chuckled.
Jiu Er was puzzled. "What are you laughing at? I really don't stink."
Qian Qian tapped her forehead gently, "Go back to your room, take a shower and go to bed, don't worry about the time."
Jiuer looked at the hourglass and it was indeed late.
She can't go to bed too late.
"Oh, I get it. Don't be like my mother."
Qian Qian glanced at her with her beautiful eyes, "Do you still remember your mother?"
"I can't remember."
"Then you always mention her."
"That's how I feel. I feel like my mother would be like that."
Qian Qian paused, raised her hand and rubbed the top of her head, "Little girl, go back to your room and sleep."
After Jiuer left, Qian Qian went directly to the top floor through the secret passage in the inner room.
A secret guard was already waiting there.
When the secret guard saw her coming up, he said, "My Lord, we have figured out the connection between those troublemakers thrown out earlier."
Qian Qian sneered, "Which one of those people is it?"
The dark guard said, "It looks like it's related to the eldest prince, but it was actually secretly arranged by the third prince."
Qian Qian's beautiful eyes narrowed dangerously, "Among those people, the Third Prince is indeed the one with the most sensitive nose."
The secret guard said, "Since you sent someone to Jinzhao Tower to test your identity, I'm afraid you are suspicious of your identity, my Lord."
"We have a good relationship, so I'll let them follow the clues and find out more."
The secret guard understood instantly, "My Lord, you had those people thrown out today to make the other side think that they had alerted the enemy?"
Qian Qian smiled, but it was not a smile, and the meaning was unpredictable, "Am I a snake?"
The secret guard knelt down and said, "My subordinate has spoken out of turn. Please punish me, my lord!"
"You're right, I really am a snake. Or rather, the wind is blowing, so we should set up nets to lure other snakes out of their holes."
The secret guard was sweating profusely and didn't dare to stand up.
The next day, Jiuer put on men's clothes and took some medicine she had been preparing in the past few days. After everything was ready, she took Yue'er and sneaked out of Jinzhao Building's back door again.
She took Yue'er and wandered around the street for a long time, but couldn't find anything that she thought Su Jingxing might like.
I didn’t meet the two Miss Wangs from the Prime Minister’s Mansion today.
After shopping until noon, Jiuer took Yueer to find a restaurant for dinner.
I planned to go to the Su Mansion after dinner even if I didn’t find a suitable gift.
Jiuer and Yueer had just sat down when they heard people talking at a table not far away.
"Brother Yu, has your family received the invitation from the Princess's Mansion?"
"Got it." The person who replied was proud but pretended to be normal, "We brothers and sisters have all received it."
"I really envy Brother Yu and your sister for being invited to the Princess's Mansion. We don't have this blessing..." someone sighed.
Someone else said, "Why are you so jealous? My brother's father is a fifth-rank official in the court, and my brother himself is quite famous for his talent. Naturally, he will be invited by the princess."
Some people were also curious, "I heard that the invitation from the Princess's Mansion this time was ostensibly for the prince consort to invite young talents to drink tea and talk about poetry, and for the princess to invite high-ranking officials and noble ladies to enjoy flowers and visit the garden. But was it actually for the princes and princesses to select princesses and prince consorts?"
"Brother Yu, is this true?"
The young man surnamed Yu smiled slightly and said, "I have never heard of such a thing. The eldest princess and her husband always like to play and have no airs. Maybe this gathering is just like the previous ones, with no other difference."
"Brother Yu, this is not fair of you. We are not qualified to receive the post, and we are not your competitors. Yet you are still hiding it... Everyone is saying this, how can it be completely groundless?"
"I really don't know." The man surnamed Yu refused to give in.
Others changed the topic and asked, "I heard that Master Su Jingxing also received the post?"
Brother Yu's smile froze. After all, in the competition for the title of Prince Consort, although Su Jingxing was just a businessman, he was a very strong competitor.
He forced a smile and said, "Haha, a person like Mr. Su, although he is just a commoner and a businessman, he is extremely talented, so he will naturally receive the invitation..."
Jiuer's eyes lit up when she heard this.
If I can't get close to Su Jingxing, then this party at the Princess's Mansion is a good opportunity.
All she had to do was get the post and sneak in... In that kind of occasion, Su Jingxing couldn't avoid her even if he wanted to!
