Did Teacher Ji also want to have a taste of gentleness?
After the three murders in Yuzhou City, everyone knew that the victims had encountered a ghost before they died. However, no one knew that the ghost was in the House of Serenity. This information was tightly sealed. The people in the yamen who knew about it did not leak it out.
The Chang 'an Inn, which was said to be a happy place, had always had an endless stream of guests.
Even though there was a murder in the city, it did not affect the normal operation of the House of Serenity.
Moreover, the entrance of the House of Serenity was packed with people in broad daylight.
It could be said that the House of Serenity was like a small imperial palace.
It was three floors high!
The first floor was where the guests were seated. It was very spacious. Tables painted with gold were arranged around the perimeter. In the middle, there was a huge round platform. The platform was made of high-quality marble and shone brightly. Above the platform, a layer of light blue gauze hung from top to bottom, wrapping the platform in the middle.
Looking in from the outside, it looked hazy and intoxicated.
Around the platform, there was a circle of flowing water. In the water, there were several windmills that were neither too big nor too small, rolling.
The second floor was a special viewing platform. Ten to twenty tables were arranged in a circle around the railing. Behind the viewing platform was the guest room.
As for the third floor, it was specially prepared for high officials and nobles.
As the saying goes, the higher the price, the higher the position.
There were so many things to pay!
The entire House of Serenity could be said to be dazzling with gold and jade. Even the nails inlaid on the pillars shone with a golden luster.
Jade stones, rockery, a stream, windmills …
Everything was there!
Ji Yunshu hugged the two girls and entered. Jing Rong followed behind.
The two girls poured wine and rubbed their bodies against each other.
One of the girls simply sat on Ji Yunshu's lap.
She did not forget to say, "Master, your body is quite small, but you look very fair and clean."
She waved her handkerchief.
The smell of rouge wafted out.
Ji Yunshu wrinkled her nose.
How could her small arms and legs bear the weight of that girl?
Her brows furrowed and her legs felt weak.
This scene was seen by Jing Rong. He covered his mouth and laughed.
Who told you to pretend to be a master?
Serves you right!
However, Ji Yunshu gritted her teeth and used all her strength to prop herself up. She smiled like a peach blossom and hooked the girl's chin, teasing, "I didn't expect a beauty to be so heavy, but this young master likes it."
"I see that you have a dignified appearance. You must be the young master of a wealthy family, right?"
"What do you think?"
"It must be. May I know which family Young Master is from?" The girl leaned forward and pressed her arm on her shoulder.
Ugh!
Ji Yunshu found it even more strenuous.
No, I can't be so weak. Otherwise, it will be too embarrassing.
So he smiled stiffly. "Why don't you guess?"
The girl thought for a moment and her eyes lit up. "Could it be the young master of the Zheng family? I heard that Young Master Zheng looks just like you, fair and clean. "
"No, guess again."
"Liang Clan's Second Young Master? A few years ago, I met him at the city gate. He really does look a little like you. Could it be that you're really the second young master of the Liang Clan? "
Ji Yunshu smiled mischievously.
He pinched the girl's chin.
"That's right, I am the second young master of the Liang Clan."
His heart didn't jump and his face didn't turn red!
Hearing this, the eyes of the two girls lit up, as if they had seen a huge money tree.
"Aiyo, I knew it. Young Master looks like a noble with a dignified appearance and extraordinary appearance. This little girl must have cultivated three lifetimes' worth of good fortune to be able to serve Liang Clan's Second Young Master today."
"Liang Clan's Second Young Master, why don't we go up to the third floor? I'll have someone prepare some good wine. Us sisters will serve you together. It's too noisy here."
As they spoke, the two girls pulled Ji Yunshu up to the third floor.
She smiled and pushed them away. She stroked her mustache and narrowed her peach blossom eyes. "It's not easy for this young master to come here. You two won't be enough to serve me."
"Alright, then I'll call more sisters. I guarantee that we will serve you well."
As they spoke, the two girls quickly went to call more people.
As soon as they left, Ji Yunshu rubbed her thigh. She wondered if she was bruised inside.
Jing Rong glanced at her and smiled. "Serves you right."
Ji Yunshu glared at him and puffed out her chest. "This is called sacrificing myself for art."
Art?!
Jing Rong said, "I'm curious. What kind of mysterious person is this Liang Clan's Second Young Master? How did those people believe you?"
"Who cares who he is, as long as they believe him."
"Then what are you trying to achieve by doing this?"
She looked around, then lowered her voice and asked, "Don't you want to know why the three victims were in the same room? And why did they say they saw a ghost? "
"Of course I want to know."
"Since you want to know, please cooperate with me and put on a show."
Jing Rong's face was full of greetings.
'This prince never acts. I'm serious.'
Ji Yunshu lowered her voice. "I've already looked through the case files. The three victims met a ghost in the room on the second floor called 'Moonlight Appreciation'. 'Moonlight Appreciation' is the room of the famous dancer, Miss Yu 'in. I've also heard that Miss Yu' in is as beautiful as a flower and as beautiful as jade. Men can't even walk when they see her."
"Why? Does Teacher Ji want to have a taste of gentleness? "
"Why not?"
Jing Rong's face was full of disdain.
The whites of his eyes were comparable to those of a dead fish.
At this time …
A few coquettish women with makeup rushed over excitedly.
That was the Second Young Master Liang, a famous noble in Yuzhou City. They naturally wanted to be the first to pounce on him, hoping that this rich young master could help them redeem their freedom.
Four or five women surrounded Ji Yunshu, calling her 'Young Master Liang' and 'Young Master Liang'.
They called her 'Young Master Liang' left and right.
Two of the women wanted to pounce on Jing Rong, but they could only give up when he coldly glanced at them.
"Young Master Liang, look at us sisters. Are you satisfied?"
Ji Yunshu's gaze swept across the women. She frowned and stroked her beard. She said unhappily, "Although this young master isn't picky, you should at least find a few who are presentable."
"What do you mean, Young Master?"
Those people were not happy.
Ji Yunshu raised her eyes in the direction of the second floor. "I heard that your famous dancer is Miss Yu 'in? This young master came because of her reputation. After all, I'm the Second Young Master of the Liang family. I don't lack money. "
Everyone was enlightened.
"So you're here for Yu 'in." One of the girls swept her handkerchief across the table. "Yu 'in sells her body, not her skills. If Young Master wants to have fun, why don't you look for us sisters? We guarantee that we'll serve you well."
"That's right. Yu 'in can dance, so can we. Moreover, Mother Bao will be selling Yu' in tonight. The highest bidder wins." She pointed at the round table wrapped in light muslin. "Here, sell her on that table. Yu 'in hasn't been doing well for the past two months. Mother Bao said that if she can't earn money, she can only be sold as a treasure. Many noble young masters will be here tonight. I'm afraid it's impossible for Young Master Liang to see Yu' in now. Why don't you wait until nightfall and offer a high price to sell her back to your residence? She'll dance for you every day."
After saying that, the girls all laughed, unable to conceal the mockery in their voices.
Ji Yunshu asked, "Why sell Miss Yu 'in? Isn't she the top hostess here? "
