Chapter 348 Night Walk
Having just arrived in Beijing today, the Tang family members were exhausted from the long journey, so they did not plan any other activities. After having dinner and chatting for a while, they went back to their respective courtyards to rest.
Tang Yichen still had official business to attend to, so he was dealing with documents in the study. Chen Yu came in with a midnight snack, put it on his left hand, and stood there, wanting to say something but stopping.
"What's wrong?" Tang Yichen said indifferently.
"The second young lady went out." Chen Yu said, "The servant guarding the gate said someone was waiting for her outside the gate. She went out with Song Yi, but without the maid."
"That person is wearing a black robe and riding a tall horse?"
"How does your Excellency know?"
"You also know that person." Tang Yichen put down the brush in his hand, picked up the exquisite little bowl, and ate the wontons.
Chen Yu thought about it and asked tentatively: "Could it be the master of the Song family?"
"Who else but him?" Who else but him could let Yinyin go out so late?
No wonder I didn’t eat much just now. I was waiting for him with an empty stomach!
What a heartless person.
The heartless boy was being tempted by the night view of the capital at this moment, and his bright eyes were looking at everything here curiously.
Song Ruize accompanied her, and Song Yi led the horse behind.
"There are several night markets in Beijing. Let's go to the East Market today and then visit other places another day." Song Ruize said.
"Okay!" Qin Huiyin pointed in the opposite direction. "It looks good there, I want to go there."
It is the most luxurious restaurant in the entire night market, and also a place of money-spending with various entertainment activities. If you stand on the highest floor, you can have a panoramic view of the night view of the entire East City.
Song Ruize took Qin Huiyin into the 'East Building'.
As soon as I entered the door, the shopkeeper there came to greet me.
"I'm sorry, sir, we are fully booked today."
Song Ruize took out a token and said, "Ask your boss if it's full."
The shopkeeper took the token and walked to the backyard.
"Brother, since the house is full, forget it." Qin Huiyin knew very well that the capital was not a small county town, and there were many nobles here who were not to be trifled with.
Originally, she just wanted to see the luxurious restaurants in the capital so that she could learn some experience when she started her own business. Since the restaurant was fully booked, there was no need for her to come here today.
"It's okay, wait a moment." Song Ruize said, "I have some friendship with the owner of this restaurant, so it's no problem to ask him to arrange a private room for me."
When the shopkeeper came out again, he was even more enthusiastic. He took them to the highest floor here and arranged a room with the best view for them.
"This wing is reserved for the boss. It is only opened to entertain important guests. The boss said that when Sir Song comes in the future, just bring him here and stay."
"Thank you." Qin Huiyin said, "I just wanted to have fun and came here to take a look. I'm sorry to cause you trouble."
Soon, the waiter brought a variety of food.
"I don't think I've ordered yet."
"These are our signature dishes. Please enjoy them, young ladies." The waiter said, "Enjoy your meal, my dear guests."
After the waiter left, Song Ruize poured the brewed flower tea into a delicate glass cup and placed it in front of her: "Try it."
"Brother, you are so awesome. Even such a big boss gives you face." Qin Huiyin said.
"I just took office half a year ago. His East Building was involved in a murder case. I stepped forward to help them clear the suspicion, and then I became friends with the owner of this East Building. But I don't like to join in the fun on weekdays, and I have never set foot here. Today is my first time here."
"Then I'm getting a great deal." Qin Huiyin stood in front of the window, looking down at the entire East City. The candlelight was indeed like stars, bright and beautiful. "The capital city is really different."
Song Ruize walked over, stood beside her, and looked at the beautiful scenery of East City.
He had been in Beijing for more than two years, like duckweed always drifting. Tonight, looking at the beautiful scenery of the capital again, the feeling was different, as if I felt the liveliness and beauty of this place for the first time.
'Donglou' is a city that never sleeps, and the guests here almost want to get drunk and live a life of debauchery, so it is closed during the day but not at night.
Qin Huiyin and Song Ruize had a midnight snack and admired the beautiful scenery of East City. When they thought it was almost time, they left the East Building.
Song Ruize did not send her back to the Tang family, but took her to the Song residence.
Qin Huiyin spent her first night in Beijing at the Song residence.
The next day, Song Ruize got up before dawn. After packing up, he went out and stopped when he passed the door next to him.
He called the servants who were passing by, gave them a few instructions, asking them not to disturb Qin Huiyin's rest, and then strode away.
Now Jiang Qibin and others have also joined the military department. Although the official position is not high, he is still a captain, in charge of dozens of people.
Chen Yong came over and whispered, "Last night, the thieves from West City robbed us again. The case originally happened in our East City, but the thief hid in West City, and those sons of bitches in West City caught him and robbed us again. Boss, West City is always so shameless and despicable, we can't just sit there and wait for death."
"The commander of Xicheng is jealous of our brother Ze and always makes trouble for us." Jiang Qibin said, "That man has a backer, and we are grassroots, how can we shake him?"
"We can't shake him, but someone else can." Song Ruize said calmly, "Isn't Commander Nancheng a very useful chess piece?"
"Yes, the commander of Nancheng is the younger brother of the empress in the palace. Although he is brave, he is not wise, has a dull mind, and is undoubtedly a fool. If we let them fight, we can reap the benefits." Zhou Jinyuan said.
"Qingnan, you don't have to go anywhere these days. Follow Yinyin to build the store she is about to open. From what I can see now, it would be best if it were located in our East City."
If she opened it in East City, his people would be able to look after it at any time. If she opened it in other areas, all kinds of "filial piety" would be enough to make her lose a layer of skin.
"Brother Ze, don't worry, I will handle this matter well." Jiang Qingnan said.
When Qin Huiyin woke up, the sun was already high in the sky. She didn't eat breakfast and hurried back to Tang's house.
Xia Ruwan was waiting for her at home. When she saw her coming back, she said sourly, "Did you have fun last night?"
"I just went out for a walk to get familiar with the roads so I can take you out to play tonight." Qin Huiyin came closer. "I haven't had breakfast yet. I'm starving."
"It's this hour, why bother eating breakfast? Just eat lunch together." Xia Ruwan said, "Our task these days is to familiarize ourselves with the environment of the capital. I just asked Aunt Li, and she said she had been to the capital before and has no interest in it. We will take your sister and your brother out for a walk, and buy a gift for your brother to pay homage to his new teacher."
Qin Huiyin asked Zhilan to call Tang Luwu and Tang Yixiao over, and they went shopping together.
The capital city is very large, and if you visit one area a day, it will take several days to cover most of the area.
