As soon as she entered the door, she saw Shen Lianqing sitting next to Mr. Cui, whom she admired. The two of them were talking and laughing, and they were obviously very familiar with each other.
Her breath hitched.
However, her arrival turned the attention in the room from Shen Lianqing to her. Everyone still appreciates Qing Guan who is good at good skills.
She bowed to everyone present, neither humble nor arrogant, and sat down on the piano platform with a curtain in the eyes of this group of people. Her slender fingers fell on the strings, and a few trial tunes showed her superb piano skills.
A soothing sound of the piano slowly flowed out, like a stream flowing through the grass, the body was immersed in goose down, the breeze blew through the white clouds, and the music touched a soft place.
Except for Cui Lan and Liu Qingran, everyone in the room had come to Xunfang Pavilion for the first time. As veterans, they proudly greeted Cui Lan in various details.
As soon as Shen Lianqing came in, he was attracted by Cui Lan, who was sitting in the middle. He took off the big cloak he was wearing. Today he was wearing navy blue clothes, which he wore in an informal way as usual.
Her facial features are deep and bright, her eyes are peach blossoms, her lips are pink, and her long dark hair falls on her shoulders, revealing a section of her fair chest, exuding a sense of ease and ease.
This man's clothes and style were almost exactly the same as Xia Ziyu. If he hadn't participated in some Huajieliuxiang activities, she would have thought that he was another Xia Ziyu.
Next to him sat Liu Qingran, who followed Cui Lan. Because he wanted to see the person he wanted to see, he also changed into a brocade dress with a thin orchid on the collar. This color made his young face look more tender.
He sat cautiously, involuntarily avoiding the woman pushed by his classmates. Until he saw Shen Lianqing come in, he stared at her without moving.
The classmate winked and smiled, "It seems that Wei Ming is not only top-notch in knowledge, but also in selecting people!"
Liu Qingran blushed, Qingjun's face was at a loss, and he looked at Shen Lianqing and didn't know what to say.
The other women in the arms of the classmates were not satisfied, "Master, are you saying that we are not as good as Qing Niang?"
Qing Niang is the last character of Shen Lianqing's name plus the word "Niang".
This is the rule of their Xunfang Pavilion. There is a competition in March, and the names of the twelve flowers selected with the highest scores will be named after the flowers.
People with the name of "Flower Flower" are all women from the upper echelons of Xunfang Pavilion, and most of the rich and powerful young men usually come to see them.
That's what everyone else calls it.
"Oh, no." The classmates were obviously very familiar with their routines, and they coaxed and stuffed them sweetly.
Liu Qingran opened his mouth, and Cui Lan behind him raised his arm and called her over, "Qing Niang? Come here quickly, I'm here to find you."
As soon as Cui Lan said what he wanted to say, he was forced to swallow it. Liu Qingran watched her walk past him, unable to say anything.
Shen Lianqing walked past him, leaving behind an incomprehensible breeze. Liu Qingran followed her movements and turned her head, seeing her sitting between him and Mr. Cui.
Mr. Cui poured her a glass of wine casually.
They were chatting.
Shen Lianqing asked Cui Lan why he, as a master in the academy, came to a place like Xunfang Pavilion.
Cui Lan leaned against the wall, with a short red railing behind him. He leaned directly back, bent one leg, and smiled happily, "Miss Qing, the master is also a human being."
"Human beings have desires. Why can't we come here?"
Shen Lian's green and white fingertips kept turning on the rim of the wine glass. She raised a charming smile, looked at Cui Lan with admiration and affection, and whispered softly, "I heard that the master has never been to a brothel before."
"Indeed not."
Cui Lan nodded and admitted that he personally likes to travel around and lock himself in his room to practice calligraphy, painting, piano and chess, but does not like coming to brothels.
There is indeed a reason for coming here this time.
One of the reasons was that his good friend Xia Ziyu was engaged to his fiancée over there and was locked up at home and couldn't get out. He just wrote a letter asking him to come and take care of the people he couldn't let go of.
The second reason is that his sick superiors gave him a sick message. He asked his men to give the butterfly jade pendant to a woman in the brothel, let her hold an important token, and asked his men to protect her. she!
He wanted to see who that woman was and what her value was, so he grabbed the letter and jade pendant from his men and came directly.
Kill two birds with one stone.
Cui Lan thought with a smile. He raised his head and poured the wine glass into his mouth. He stood up, put down the wine glass, grabbed a handful of melon seeds, looked at Shen Lianqing with interest and said, "Miss Qing, I'm here for you!"
"Really?" Shen Lianqing was very happy. She hooked Cui Lan's arm holding the melon seeds and leaned against him. "Then Mr. Cui wants to be with Qing Niang tonight..."
"Cough cough cough!"
Liu Qingran on the side listened to their increasingly uncomfortable conversation and couldn't help but pick up the wine glass and take a sip. However, he had not drunk any wine, and the alcohol content was too high. It was spicy and made him cough.
Shen Lianqing and Cui Lan looked at him at the same time.
Liu Qingran blinked randomly and showed a big red face. I'm sorry, he didn't mean it!
Cui Lan chuckled, stopped teasing Shen Lianqing, and put a handful of melon seeds in her hand. He was kind and helpful, "The melon seeds you have in Xunfang Pavilion are good. Knock more."
"Thank you."
"You're welcome."
Holding a handful of melon seeds, he turned around and chatted with the students on the other side. His body was half lying on the couch, lying gracefully on Ge You. A jade pendant hung on his thin and slender waist, sliding to one side.
Round, carved butterfly.
Shen Lianqing's eyes narrowed, jade pendant!
Could it be that Cui Lan was the person sent by Xia Ziyu to contact her? !
Good guy, he is Xia Ziyu's friend, so it makes sense.
Shen Lianqing climbed onto the couch and approached Cui Lan from behind. Cui Lan knew martial arts, so he naturally felt her movements.
He felt a source of heat and the intermittent fragrance he smelled that day surrounded him bit by bit from behind, and his body couldn't help but stiffen.
What does she want to do?
Until her hand touched his waist, he trembled and couldn't help turning around and grabbing her hand. He still had a melon seed in his mouth. He quickly swallowed it, frowning, his face He lost a bit of composure, "What are you going to do?!"
Shen Lianqing pointed to the jade pendant in his hand, suddenly approached him and whispered in his ear, "Is this what the Crown Prince asked you to bring to me?"
All her movements were to lean down, and Cui Lan had to look up at her. Her big fox eyes shone like stars, looking at him expectantly, "Really?"
No, of course not—
Cui Lan swallowed, he avoided her gaze, his voice was hoarse and vague, "What did you say...?"
He didn't refute, Shen Lianqing immediately thought of the piece of paper to be exchanged, and immediately put her hand into her wipes.
Cui Lan's eyes widened, the tip of her nose felt hot, and she didn't care about the melon seeds in her hand. She hurriedly stepped forward to cover her snow, "Miss Qing, I know you want it very much, but you can't do this if you want it!"
