Chapter 105: Chunxian Pavilion's Goal (Part 2)
Although Shuyao's face is half covered, it is not an exaggeration to call her the most beautiful woman in the world based on the half of her face that is exposed.
"Why, are you interested in Shuyao?" Shangguan Nanxing whispered with a little doting. Nowadays, Yue'er rarely realizes that she should reject him, which is a good sign.
"Of course I'm interested in such a beauty, but what I'm most interested in is the ten thousand taels of silver."
Su Yue looked at Shu Yao on the stage, a hint of interest flashing in her eyes. What on earth was this Chunxian Pavilion trying to do that they were willing to spend ten thousand taels of silver.
She is not stupid. If a brothel holds a ball-throwing event and the target is men, there is no need to go through the trouble of specifically stating that both men and women are welcome.
And the most important thing is that if a woman receives the bouquet, she will receive ten thousand taels of silver. This is undoubtedly intended to encourage a woman present to receive the bouquet.
However, Su Yue only thought of this. She did not have the confidence to think that Chunxian Pavilion's target was her.
At this time, Su Yue had no idea that a dozen young men dressed in ordinary clothes were gradually surrounding her.
Those people were specially arranged by Mo Jingchen. Each of them had some martial arts skills. He had to ensure that Su Yue caught the hydrangea. Only in this way could he get what he wanted from Su Yue.
And when Su Yue came in, Chunxian Pavilion stopped everyone who wanted to come in and closed the door, saying that there were enough people tonight.
Because Su Yue's identity is special, if kidnapping is used, even if it succeeds, it will easily expose Chunxian Pavilion's trump card. Mo Jingchen thought about it all night before coming up with such a compromise method.
On New Year's Eve in Dongyou Kingdom, almost all the young ladies from official families can come out. After all, they usually stay at home for the whole year, and the emperor has granted special permission for unmarried young ladies to come out tonight to enjoy the fireworks.
Mo Jingchen even planned that if Su Yue didn't come on the first night, he would let Shuyao throw the bouquet again tomorrow night.
Mo Jingchen was gambling, gambling on whether Su Yue would come out, whether she would be attracted by his "outrageous" throwing of the bouquet. The facts told him that he made the right bet.
Because the door was closed, the fragrance in the room gradually became heavier, but everyone's attention was attracted by the exquisite hydrangea in the hands of the woman on the stage.
Finally, the drum sounded as expected. Shuyao looked down while holding the hydrangea, and her eyes stopped at Su Yue's circle.
In order not to be too obvious, Shuyao deliberately did not stare at Su Yue. Seeing that the people around Su Yue winked at her, she knew that everything was ready.
As Shuyao swung the hydrangea with all her might towards Su Yue, it flew straight towards Su Yue as if it had eyes.
A young man next to Su Yue took it first, but it seemed that he didn't hold it firmly and his hand shook, so the hydrangea jumped up again and was caught by another young man.
As the drums went back and forth and everyone was in a state of excitement, the drumbeats suddenly stopped.
And at the moment the drum stopped, the young men next to Su Yue suddenly rushed towards Su Yue. Although Shangguan Nanxing wanted to protect them, there were too many people and he couldn't squeeze in.
Even Shangguan Nanfeng couldn't squeeze past that group of young people, which made Shangguan Nanfeng's eyes flash with doubt.
Although he could not be said to be skilled in martial arts, it was easy for him to push away ordinary unarmed civilians, and these young people in front of him were obviously skilled in martial arts.
Shangguan Nanfeng narrowed his peach blossom eyes again and again. If these people had martial arts skills, then it meant that Su Yue was their target.
Isn't the opportunity to be a hero and save the beauty that I have always wanted to create now right in front of me?
So he remained calm and alert, wanting to see what those people were up to. Most importantly, he had to rescue Su Yue as soon as possible if she was in danger.
"I'm going to die, I'm going to die!" In the chaos, the parrot in Su Yue's hand screamed in fear, and Su Yue only felt that there was suddenly a round object in his arms.
When the drumbeats stopped completely and everyone dispersed, they saw Su Yue holding the hydrangea, standing there in a daze.
When the people around saw that the hydrangea was actually grabbed by a little girl, they stretched their necks to see what the girl looked like. Everyone, male or female, had a look of jealousy in their eyes.
"Congratulations to this young lady for winning the hydrangea!" Mother Ning immediately announced loudly with a smile.
"Yuer?" Shangguan Nanxing had just been pushed away by the group of young people, which made him feel powerless.
This made him make the most important decision in his life: he wanted to learn martial arts so that he could protect Su Yue in times of danger.
"Brother Nanxing, I'm fine." Su Yue looked at the hydrangea in her hand, then looked at Mother Ning. It turned out that the target of Chunxian Pavilion was her?
"Congratulations to this young lady. I wonder if she is interested in listening to Shuyao's music?"
The voice like a yellow warbler sounded again. Su Yue's eyes rolled. Ten thousand taels of silver would be a waste if she didn't take it. Besides, she also wanted to know what the Chunxian Pavilion was doing.
Su Yue smiled directly and said, “A beautiful woman is coming to meet me, of course I’m interested.”
"Yuer, be careful of traps." Shangguan Nanxing gently pulled Su Yue's long sleeves and reminded her softly.
After all, so many young and strong men were fighting for the hydrangea, but in the end it fell into the hands of a powerless girl. This is definitely not normal!
"It's okay, I know what to do. Brother Nanxing, please wait for me outside." Su Yue replied in a low voice, with a hint of caution in her tone.
Shangguan Nanfeng on the side looked at the two of them, suppressed his temper, and pinched his palms tightly. If it weren't for his mother's instructions, he would have wanted to rush up and pull Su Yue over.
Afterwards, Su Yue, led by the servant, carried the parrot and entered Shuyao's bedroom. The others found it boring and dispersed.
Mother Ning looked at the two men wearing fox masks standing in front of Shuyao's bedroom and knew that they came with Su Yue.
So he deliberately hinted to a few girls to go over and talk to them loudly, hoping to take the two men away. However, the girls who went were scared away by the two men's eyes.
As soon as I entered the bedroom, a strong fragrance hit me in the face, but it was just the right fragrance and not annoying.
The sound of a piano could be heard. Shuyao was already sitting in the inner room playing the piano. The sound was melodious and graceful, like crying and complaining.
Although Shuyao had taken off her veil at this time, Su Yue could not see Shuyao's face clearly through the beaded curtain.
Su Yue sat casually in front of the round sandalwood table and enjoyed the sound of the piano. However, as she listened, she felt something was wrong.
It seemed as if her mind was beginning to feel heavy and confused, but she was absolutely sure that she was not poisoned.
"Your Highness, I have hypnotized this girl."
After a long time, Shuyao stood up, looked at Su Yue's eyes which seemed to be empty, then she bowed towards the screen and spoke in a low voice.
Su Yue's feeling was correct. She was indeed not poisoned, but she was hypnotized by Shu Yao's unique technique.
From inhaling the first layer of light fragrance in the hall at the beginning, to inhaling the second layer of strong fragrance in the room, and then supplemented by Shuyao's unique hypnotic piano playing, in three steps, each link is linked to the next, and this is success.
"Well done." A deep male voice came from behind the screen, followed by the figure of Mo Jingchen.
