Although the Imperial Fragrance Building was a two-story building, on the second floor, there were not only private rooms by the window overlooking the main hall, but also private rooms.
There were four people sitting in the Heavenly private room.
They were none other than Li Shiming, Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui. In fact, Li Shiming was behind the Imperial Fragrance Building. This was a business that Li Shiming secretly controlled, and also a channel for him to gather information.
Li Shiming drank a cup of wine and said with a smile, "Tonight, Qianxue is out. I hope she can recruit a talented person. Now, the battle between us and the East Palace is getting more intense, and father is supporting the Crown Prince. For us, talents are hard to come by! "
Zhangsun Wuji said, "Qianxue took a lot of effort to cultivate, and the talent she picked will not be bad. Moreover, with Qianxue's influence, it is not difficult to rope him in. If not for the Crown Prince's pressure, Your Highness would not have to go through such channels to recruit talents. "
Fang Xuanling said, "Indeed. Now, not only is the East Palace pressuring you, but His Majesty is also trying to teach you a lesson. Although the situation is difficult now, as long as Your Highness perseveres, you will be able to see the moon. "
Du Ruhui's face was solemn, and he said, "The news of Qianxue's coming out of the Imperial Fragrance Building has already been released. I don't know what talents will appear tonight. Hopefully, there would be more talents under His Highness' command. Even if they are not chosen by Qianxue, as long as they appear, the Prince's Residence will have a direction to recruit them. "
The four of them talked about the night's events together.
To them, the theory of love was too vague. The most practical and realistic thing was to expand and strengthen one's strength.
Knock! Knock!
There was a knock on the door.
Then, the door creaked open, and Li Shiming's personal attendant entered. The attendant walked to Li Shiming's side respectfully, whispered something, and then turned to leave.
After Li Shiming heard this, he smiled faintly, and his gaze fell on Du Ruhui.
Du Ruhui said, "Your Highness, what's the matter?"
Li Shiming said with a faint smile, "This matter is related to you. Du Erlang followed Cheng Chumo to the Imperial Fragrance Building. Now, he is sitting on the second floor. "
"This bastard!"
When Du Ruhui heard this, he was infuriated.
He was furious.
Du Ruhui clenched his fists and said in a deep voice, "The Imperial Fragrance Pavilion is a place to seek pleasure. Although there are famous people lingering around, this bastard is only twelve or thirteen years old. He must be itching for a beating to come to the Imperial Fragrance Pavilion. If it wasn't for the fact that I can't show my face right now, I would definitely teach him a lesson. Forget it, I'll deal with it when I return home tonight. "
He was ready to make a move to correct Du Qi's mistake.
Hanging around brothels at such a young age.
This was not good news.
Fang Xuanling comforted, "Keming, you can't blame Erlang for this. In my opinion, it was Cheng Chumo who instigated this. After all, this was not the first time Cheng Chumo had come to the Imperial Fragrance Pavilion. With this kid's instigation, Erlang followed. "
Fang Jun hooked up with Du Qi.
Therefore, Fang Xuanling took the initiative to help Du Qi out of his predicament.
Du Ruhui snorted and said in a deep voice, "It doesn't matter if Cheng Chumo instigated this or not. Since that bastard is here, he is here of his own accord. This matter will be dealt with when we return home. "
Li Shimin was familiar with Du Ruhui's nature. He had always been strict with his children. However, the current Du Qi was strange and clever. He was extremely slippery, and he had many strange and wonderful ideas. He was also very clear-minded. Li Shimin was looking forward to seeing what would happen when Du Ruhui, with his fiery temper, met the slippery Du Qi.
Zhangsun Wuji did not say anything. He was not interested in Du Qi.
No matter what Du Qi was, he was still a child.
He was just a twelve or thirteen year old child.
With the appearance of Du Qi, Li Shimin and Du Ruhui's discussion shifted to Du Qi. They talked and laughed. For a moment, the atmosphere was very relaxed, not letting down the previous serious topic.
While they were talking, Du Qi, who was drinking on the second floor, suddenly had a bad premonition.
He kept feeling that something was wrong.
However, Du Qi did not take it to heart. His gaze was still on the ground floor, looking at the scholars gradually entering. At this time, scholars were romantic and many literati entered the brothel.
For literati, loitering in the brothel was not seeking pleasure, but being romantic.
Therefore, there were many people.
However, Du Qi did not know most of the people who entered the hall. After all, he spent most of his time in the residence. Other than the people who came to the residence, he did not have much contact with other people and did not know much about the outside world.
"Why is he here?"
Cheng Chumo had been watching the situation below. Seeing a youth enter, he immediately frowned.
Du Qi said, "Who is here?"
Cheng Chumo pointed his finger at a young man wearing a sky-blue robe and said, "That's him, Wei Shuyu, the eldest son of Wei Zheng's first wife. This kid is not simple. Since he is here, I am afraid that Miss Qianxue will choose Wei Shuyu tonight. "
Du Qi stared at Wei Shuyu. Looking down from the second floor, he could see Wei Shuyu's appearance clearly. Wei Shuyu was close to twenty years old, the same age as Cheng Chumo.
At this age, Wei Shuyu was already eight feet tall. He was handsome and had a heroic bearing. He looked like a talent.
From his appearance and height, he was extraordinary.
Du Qi was also clear about Wei Shuyu's situation. In history, Wei Shuyu was originally going to marry Li Shimin's daughter, Princess Hengshan. However, after Wei Zheng died of illness, Wei Zheng was implicated because of Hou Junji's rebellion. Li Shimin suspected that Wei Zheng was forming a clique and canceled the marriage between Princess Hengshan and Wei Shuyu.
This was a tragic character.
Du Qi smiled and said, "Wei Shuyu is Wei Zheng's eldest son. Wei Zheng is now a popular person in the Eastern Palace. If Wei Shuyu uses Qianxue's name tonight, won't the Eastern Palace's power increase? "
Hearing this, Cheng Chumo's expression changed and he said, "Indeed!"
He had not considered this before.
After Du Qi's explanation, Cheng Chumo also understood. He looked around and said worriedly, "People from the Duke of Qin's Residence. I looked around and only saw the two of us."
"I am a rough person and don't know much about literature."
"Erlang, although you are smart, eloquent, and well-read, the problem is that you are still too young. Sigh, this matter is really difficult to handle. "
Cheng Chumo said worriedly, "Especially Wei Shuyu, this kid has been taught by Wei Zheng since he was young. He is familiar with the classics and can recite poems. He is not a simple person."
After a pause, Cheng Chumo continued, "Forget it, these matters are for the higher-ups to consider. We can't interfere and just do our own things. We don't have to worry about these things. In short, just watch Qianxue's song and dance. "
Du Qi said, "That's true!"
A light flashed in his eyes as he waited to see what would happen next.
Time passed little by little. The sky outside was now completely dark and there was even a cold wind blowing. But for Du Qi and the others, it was gradually getting better because the people playing the song in the hall had all left and the music had stopped.
"She's out, Miss Qianxue is out!"
Someone shouted from downstairs.
As the shouts rang out, the atmosphere in the hall was completely heated. Countless people cheered, and many even whistled. In short, there were all kinds of expressions and expressions.
Du Qi saw this scene and shook his head.
At this point, human nature was on full display.
A moment later, a charming figure appeared in the corridor connecting the second floor to the hall. A tall and slender woman in a long white dress appeared in front of everyone.
The person who came was Qianxue.
