"The beautiful scenery of the West Lake, the sky in March, the spring rain is like wine, the willows are like smoke …"
Fifth Master was very happy today, at least that was what Wu Er thought.
From the words he sang, it could be seen that he had gone to the brothel to watch a play. It was "The Legend of the White Snake" that was popular in Jing recently. He had known this song for a long time. In that play, he liked the weird green snake the most and didn't have a good impression of the effeminate Xu Xian.
But today, the beautiful scenery of the West Lake was not important, and the play was also not important. What was important was that Fifth Master was not going to urge the government to quickly arrest the villain who had injured the little duke. How could he have the free time to watch a play at the brothel?
Could it be that he was very happy to see the little duke lying on the bed wrapped up like a dumpling?
Thinking of a rumor that had been circulating among the servants in the manor, Wu Er's expression gradually became strange.
"Wu Er …" Just as he was thinking this, he suddenly heard Fifth Master Qin call his name. Wu Er quickly said, "Fifth Master, what are your orders?"
"I heard that you were there when the young master was beaten up that day?" Fifth Master Qin walked over, bringing with him a strong smell of alcohol.
Wu Er quickly said, "I was indeed there at the time, but Fifth Master, it's not that I didn't help the young master, it's that the villain was too powerful, and I couldn't beat him!"
Fifth Master Qin waved his hand and said, "I don't blame you. Come, tell me in detail what happened that day."
Wu Er looked at Fifth Master Qin, and his eyes flashed a few times, but his face showed an honest expression. He said, "Yes, yes, that day was like this …"
…
…
"Miss, today, the government came again to ask about Hero Zheng Mian. Should we temporarily remove his name from the Hero Ranking?" Old Man Sun looked at Wan Ruoqing and asked with furrowed brows.
"No need." Wan Ruoqing smiled and said, "We have nothing to do with Hero Zheng Mian. That matter is being spread all over Jing. What's more, the Hero Ranking has recently been handled by that Miss.Liu, so it's not good for us to say anything. "
"Then, then alright …" Old Man Sun sighed and said.
The capital was not like Qing 'an Prefecture. The hedonistic young masters in the city were not so easily taught a lesson. These heroes had no ties and could no longer stay in the capital. At most, they would move to another place to continue their freedom. In any case, their brothels had already infiltrated many states and counties. These lists were also common. However, the officials could not catch those people, but they would focus some of their attention on them. Old Man Sun felt that their foundation was still shallow. Within the capital, they still had to be careful.
The Hero Ranking Board was almost completely separated from the brothel. Even though the brothel still needed to advertise it, it was no longer something he could interfere with.
However, since Miss Wan said there was no need, he didn't think about it anymore. He told her about the recent situation in the brothel and soon left.
Xiao Cui was running in the yard with a small kite in her hand. The kite was made for her by her young miss, and there was a portrait of her on it. Unfortunately, the yard was too small, and she had to turn back after running for a dozen steps. The kite could only fly over the roof, which made her a little depressed.
However, she quite liked this secluded little courtyard.
Even though it was a little small for flying a kite, it was actually more than twice the size of the place they lived in when they were in Qing 'an Prefecture. According to Xiao Zhu, this was a yard that only the senior members of the brothel could have.
Thinking of Xiao Zhu's proud expression at that time, she suddenly felt a little indignant.
Miss Wan was indeed a senior member of the brothel, but her young miss was also considered one. Her young miss had also worked hard and sweated for the brothel. Even though she was not as good as Miss Wan, Miss Wan had been seen by that person. In short, it shouldn't be too much for her young miss to have such a small yard, right?
Of course, the yard couldn't be too far away from here. Otherwise, it would be inconvenient for the two of them to come over to eat.
When she was thinking about this, she was naturally a little distracted. Her movements slowed, and the kite fell from the sky and hit the head of a figure walking in from outside.
Li Yi touched his head and took a deep breath. Then, he looked at the smiling young girl lying on the ground with a stunned expression.
…
…
"I, I arrived here the day before yesterday." Xiao Cui held the kite and followed behind Li Yi with her head down. She didn't dare to look up at him.
"Where is your young miss?" Li Yi rubbed the place that was hit and asked as he walked.
"Young miss is painting in the room." Young miss didn't like to be disturbed when she was painting. Xiao Cui said in a low voice. Then, she walked to a room and gently knocked on the door, saying, "Young miss, Li …"
"Come in, Xiao Cui." Before Xiao Cui could finish, Zeng Zuimo's voice came from inside.
"Oh." Xiao Cui looked at Li Yi and said, "You can go in by yourself."
Young miss often complained that Li never cared about the brothel, which was why Miss Wan was so tired. She might be angry if she saw him, so she planned to stay away for a while.
Li Yi nodded and pushed the door in, thinking that he must keep the Goddess of Luo Shui here this time. She could paint, sing, and know how to create hype. Such a talent was hard to find. He stepped into the room and looked up ahead. He saw a smooth and flawless jade back.
Zeng Zuimo's back was facing him, and her two hands struggled to reach behind her. She didn't look back and said, "Xiao Cui, you came at the right time. Help me tie my dudou from the back."
Li Yi's expression changed. He felt that the friendship that he had built up with great difficulty was about to capsize again.
Seeing that there was no movement behind her, Zeng Zuimo turned around and frowned. "Hurry up, what are you waiting for …"
The expression on her face froze, and the words she wanted to say were stuck in her throat.
Such a familiar person, such a familiar scene. The difference was that last time, she was naked, but this time, she was covered by a pink dudou.
But for some reason, this made her feel even more ashamed.
Li Yi closed his eyes and said helplessly, "Well, it's better … You tie it yourself."
The girl squatted in the corridor outside the door, wondering why there was no movement inside. The next moment, an ear-piercing voice full of anger came from the room.
"Xiao Cui!"
The young miss was indeed very angry, but she couldn't be blamed. She was obviously angry at Li. Why did she call her name?
She stood up reluctantly and walked into the room. Seeing the young miss looking at her as if she wanted to eat her, and then looking at her clothes, she immediately realized something and screamed and ran out of the door.
"Young miss, you let me in. You can't blame me for this!"
Not long after, the two sat in the corridor. Li Yi looked back at the door that had been closed from the beginning. He stuffed a piece of osmanthus cake that he had stolen from the kitchen into his mouth and handed the remaining piece to the girl next to him. He asked, "Do you want one?"
