Chapter 22



There are few people here, but he has never brought anyone into the palace. I wonder if he will make an exception this time?

Huang Yumo was about to make a sarcastic remark, but Feng Lingxi said coldly, "If you accidentally injure someone, you will be disqualified from the competition!"

Being disqualified from the competition is no small matter. It directly affects Meng Xin's future status in the red-light district. Life will not be easy for a brothel boy with low status and no one pursuing him.

The painting boat and the stage were not far apart, and Feng Lingxi did not speak particularly loudly, so the people on the shore could not hear her, but the people on the nearby painting boats could still hear her clearly. For a moment, they could not help but sigh, it seems that the flower has feelings but the water is heartless.

Meng Xin, who was originally full of anticipation, was stunned when she heard this. Accidentally hurt someone? The hydrangea is soft, so even if it hits someone, it won't hurt anyone!

But if Feng Lingxi said that he hurt someone, no one dared to say that he didn't hurt anyone. Many people were very disdainful when discussing Feng Lingxi, but in fact a large part of the reason was jealousy, because Her Majesty the Queen was too partial to Feng Lingxi. It seemed that Feng Lingxi had no real power, but if you really counted it, her power was almost catching up with the Queen, and even the ministers in the court did not dare to test her edge.

Of course, there are also many people who think that serving the emperor is like serving a tiger, and that Prince Xian’s glory is only temporary, so they are all waiting to see what will happen to this useless Prince Xian when Her Majesty the Queen no longer favors him.

No matter what, a word from His Royal Highness Prince Xian now can definitely determine Meng Xin's future and even life and death.

“Your Majesty…”

Meng Xin suddenly knelt down and said pitifully, "Meng Xin admires the prince and does not ask for a title. She is willing to serve the prince as a slave."

Once you enter a brothel, you can no longer maintain your innocence. If you are better off, you can still keep your innocence, but you will be looked down upon. If you are worse off, you will be slept with by thousands of men. He doesn't want to end up in that situation.

Now he has just entered Zhifeng Tower. He is still innocent, good-looking, and knows some skills in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. He wants to make a name for himself with his own means, and it is said that His Royal Highness Prince Xian, who is a playboy, is his chance. He must seize this opportunity. Even if he is just a servant of the king, it is a million times better than the life in this brothel.

Yun Siyu didn't say anything, but his eyes flickered, containing an emotion that was hard to understand but felt very dangerous.

Feng Lingxi pulled him into her arms, squeezed his hand comfortingly, looked up at the "poor" person on the stage, and smiled with an extremely charming smile, "Be a slave? Qiyun, bring him here."

031 An Uninteresting Person

Qiyun couldn't help but shudder. Although he had never made an official appearance, he had stayed in Zhifeng Tower for quite some time and had some understanding of Feng Lingxi's personality. Such a smile was even more terrifying than her cold face.

Generally speaking, when Feng Lingxi's face turns cold, it will make people feel happy, and when she smiles, then you don't have to worry about your life, but you will definitely regret your behavior.

She will never give you what you want, and all she gives you are things you don't want, or even things you are afraid of.

Feeling that the current atmosphere was too dangerous, no one in the houseboat spoke up. Even Huang Yumo was smart enough not to mock Feng Lingxi again.

Yun Siyu had already retracted his gaze, glanced at Feng Lingxi, put his arms around her waist, and leaned into her arms to hide the flash of coldness in his eyes.

It's his!

After a while, Meng Xin was brought in and knelt down in front of Feng Lingxi properly, but no one paid attention to him. Since Feng Lingxi didn't ask him to get up, he naturally didn't dare to get up.

He just secretly raised his eyes to glance at Feng Lingxi. Although he wanted to get close to the Prince of Idleness in order to escape from the sea of ​​suffering, he had to admit that it was hard not to be moved by this Prince of Idleness.

Qiyun brought him over and stood aside, watching his face, not saying a word or moving, doing his duty very well.

The others didn't say anything either, they were all curious about what Feng Lingxi would do.

Feng Lingxi, however, didn't seem to notice the extra person at all. He just reached out and dug out the head from his arms, and said with a smile, "Jie Yu is on stage, don't you want to see it?"

Yun Siyu hummed, "If someone can understand the language and play the piano, just listen to him."

Seeing his awkward look, Feng Lingxi's originally unhappy mood improved a lot, but she still preferred the look of the little wild cat with bared fangs and claws.

So he reached out and lifted his chin, looked him up and down, and said with a smile, "You are not so unconfident, are you?"

Yun Siyu stared at her for a long time before saying, "He can't beat me." He could crush such a weak man to death with just one finger.

"That's all."

The others were a little confused listening to the conversation between the two. Could it be that His Royal Highness Prince Xian wanted his prince to fight with this young master? Whoever wins will follow her?

"But I'm not happy." The little wild cat is also very protective of its food.

Feng Lingxi ruffled his hair and asked, "Then what will it take for Lord Wangjun to calm down?"

Yun Siyu rolled his eyes and said, "Give me all the money you won."

"good."

Hearing this, Yun Siyu suddenly jumped out of her arms and said excitedly, "Let me calculate how much I won." As soon as Jie Yu appeared on the stage, the outcome was basically decided.

Feng Lingxi stared blankly at his empty arms, and after a while he cursed, "You heartless little thing, your wife and I are not as good as that little bit of money?"

Yun Siyu turned his back to her and ignored her. Qiyun couldn't help but smile secretly. Was Wang Jun taking revenge on her?

Huang Yuxuan couldn't help but ask, "Ling Xi, how much did you bet?"

"Five million taels."

Huang Yuxuan twitched his lips and cried out, "Why are you richer than me? It's not fair!"

Feng Lingxi glanced at her sad face and said lightly, "You heard it too, I didn't make a penny, don't even think about taking advantage of me."

Huang Yuxuan became even more resentful. No one would believe her. With Zhifeng Tower's sudden and unexpected move, the casinos she controlled must have made a fortune. How could she say such things without batting an eyelid?

Because there were outsiders present, Huang Yuxuan did not say much, but just howled, "It's not fair, why weren't you so generous when I asked you for money?"

Feng Lingxi said as a matter of course, "Siyu is my king, it doesn't matter whether he is mine or his. As for you, do I know you well?"

Her Majesty the Queen was devastated and lay listlessly on the table licking her wounds alone.

She is so heartless. If it weren't for those words she mentioned, would this Oiran competition be so lively? She also contributed!

The others were confused. Normally, Her Majesty the Queen would give treasures to Prince Xian as rewards, right? When will Her Majesty the Queen ask Prince Xian for money?

After the talent show at Zhifeng Tower ended, many young masters from prominent families took the stage one after another. Just like Feng Lingxi said, the important characters always appeared last. These young masters thought highly of themselves, so why would they lower their status to compete with those young masters from brothels?

Yun Siyu was in a hurry to get the silver and had no mood to enjoy the performance.

Seeing Yun Siyu pulling Feng Lingxi away, Meng Xin had to remind them of her presence, "Prince..."

Feng Lingxi paused, glanced at him, and said to Qiyun, "Let him go to the stable to serve."

After these words were spoken, Meng Xin was stunned again. He knew something about what was required to serve in the stable. Wasn't it just feeding the horses, bathing and brushing their fur? “Your Majesty…”

Feng Lingxi looked at him impatiently, and her voice became colder, "You want to be a slave, don't you? I have already granted your wish, do you still have any objections?"

"I..." Meng Xin bit her lip and endured it. She could only comfort herself that she would always have a chance if she entered the palace.

Qiyun couldn't bear to see others plotting against Feng Lingxi, so she said, "Let's go, I'll take you outside the city."

"Outside the city?" Meng Xin looked at him puzzledly.

Qiyun explained "kindly", "The prince raises a lot of horses, so the stable is in the farm outside the city. You don't have to worry. In total, there are only a thousand horses. Although you're alone, it shouldn't be a problem." In fact, except for Taxue, Feng Lingxi never rode any other horses. Most of them were mounts of other people in the prince's mansion.

The prince clearly has no intention of letting Meng Xin have an easy time, so just let him handle it alone. It's his fault for being so tactless.

Meng Xin's face turned pale. How could he possibly take care of a thousand horses by himself? "Your Highness... Please let Meng Xin serve you."

He wanted to get close to Feng Lingxi so that he could live a better life, but it would be better to stay in Zhifeng Tower than to serve those horses.

"I don't need anyone else to serve me. You should think about how to take good care of the horses. After all, I don't keep useless people."

"This is unfair. The prince said that he doesn't want to support useless people. What about him?" Meng Xin didn't know if she was angry or not. She pointed at Yun Siyu who was pulling Feng Lingxi's sleeve and said, "Meng Xin is confident that as long as he can do it, Meng Xin can also do it. What he can't do, Meng Xin can also do it."

Yun Siyu curled his lips, as if he was disdainful of competing with him. He knew a lot of things, such as turning himself into corpse water in an instant.

Feng Lingxi said with amusement, "Did I ever say I would be fair to you? Who do you think you are?" Why should he demand fairness from her?

Yun Siyu couldn't stand it anymore, he glared at Feng Lingxi and asked, "Do you think I'm useless?" Isn't that the same as admitting that he is useless?

Feng Lingxi quickly shook her head and denied, "How could that be? Besides, I am willing to raise you." It would be best if you could raise a plump and white baby that would be comfortable to hold.

Meng Xin bit her lip and said with red eyes, "Although Meng Xin has fallen into prostitution, she is still innocent.
