The room was in a mess, and various scents of incense and powder floated from his nose straight into his forehead, making him cough repeatedly.
"Where is... here?" Su Qing half-closed his eyes and stretched out his hands to explore around. At this moment, he was still in a state where he couldn't see anything clearly. The hot morning light made him unable to open his eyes.
Suddenly, he touched a warm mattress, and someone turned over on the bed and slept directly on the back of his hand.
"Hey!" Su Qing made a strange sound like a monkey after seeing clearly that there were two naked women beside him. Just then he remembered what happened last night - this was an ordinary thing after he had experienced countless hangovers. morning.
He pinched the buttocks of both companions flirtatiously until they woke up.
"Ouch, it hurts so much!"
"Hahaha." Su Qing sneered, but the two women looked at each other and immediately made a tacit understanding, one in front and one in the back. At the same time, they threw themselves on Su Qing and started playing coquettishly.
"Hahaha, you are too small-minded!" Before Su Qing finished speaking, his chest suddenly felt tight, and then he coughed out a mouthful of blood, which almost scared others to faint.
"Sir, spare your life, I didn't do it on purpose."
"It has nothing to do with you." Su Qing luckily adjusted her breathing and said, "Take the medicine from my clothes and put it in the money bag..."
What prostitutes are best at doing is being at the mercy of others. Soon they served Su Qing happily, and Su Qing did not let them down. The prodigal gave them his entire money bag, and then turned around and left without a care. .
One of the women chased her out in a hurry, wearing only a light gauze and no underwear. She asked, "Sir, you gave us too much. We are not worth the price."
"I'm grateful to you for spending the night with me. Take this money and end your muddled life as soon as possible. Think about tomorrow, think about the future. Of course, if you like to live day by day, think that everything I say is bullshit. , after all, I am also such a fool."
The woman's eyes were wide open, as if they were about to fall out. Just as Su Qing was about to leave, she stopped in front of him again and asked: "Master, what is your name?"
"My name is Su Qing. We will never meet again. What's the use of knowing the name."
His half-angry and half-mocking smile seemed to be deliberately irritating the other party, but this level was not even one ten thousandth of the insult that Fengchen Nu would receive on a daily basis.
Su Qing left anyway and never looked back.
After leaving Wenrou Township, he planned to go to the post house to find Zhao Xiaomei and ask if Nie Yun had come to visit. In fact, he had no idea why he wanted to ask. He just felt in his heart that Zhao Xiaomei's reaction would be interesting, so he went.
No matter what he does, Su Qing always uses whether he is interested as the main reason, and this time is no exception.
Sure enough, when Zhao Xiaomei saw him coming back, she immediately started chattering.
"Where have you been these past few days! I won't stop you if you want to leave, but you actually proposed a marriage to me in private?"
"What I'm most angry about is not this, but that you actually kept it secret and didn't even tell me?"
"Don't you hate my brother very much? Why, when you betrayed me, you were very neat and immediately hooked up with my brother and the others."
Su Qing walked around the room nonchalantly. He took out the book and read it a few times out of boredom. However, he soon felt that the principles in it were too old-fashioned and threw down the book. Finally, he sat down in front of the little girl and said: "Big Miss, didn't you ask me to 'steal' Brother Bai's heart? I've been running around for this matter these days."
Seeing that the other party was so arrogant and rude, the little girl picked up the letter that Su Qing had just dropped, and then threw it at him without hesitation, cursing: "Get out of here! You bastard, you shameless person!"
"Why are you still acting like a fool?" The smile on Su Qing's face never stopped: "I have really been working under General Bai Feng. He was recently promoted to 'General Zhongwei'. The imperial guards are all under his control. From now on, if old friends want to see him, they will probably have to wait behind all the dignitaries in the palace~"
"Really?" After hearing the good news about Bai Feng, the younger sister softened her attitude and asked: "Then it is only polite that our Zhao family should also send congratulations. I will prepare it now."
Seeing this, Su Qing suddenly laughed and said: "Miss, don't rush to congratulate me. For General Bai Feng, this fact is a disaster!"
"What's going on?" Zhao Xiaomei never concealed her true feelings in front of Su Qing. She didn't know why this happened, but she showed excessive concern for Bai Feng - in this state, all the subtle things about her The expression and movements were all a great enjoyment for Su Qing.
"Hmm...how should I put it?" Su Qing deliberately tried to hide it, causing Zhao Xiaomei to become very anxious before relenting: "Someone wants to harm him and deliberately promotes him. I can't confirm who this person is, but he must be the same as Mei Lin. Relevant to people with high authority in the DPRK.”
Zhao Xiaomei returned to the low table and sat slumped there, her head lowered in silence for a long time. There were pens, ink, books and inkstones on the table. Su Qing thought she was looking through the books to see if there were any relevant allusions that could be used to help Bai Feng out of trouble, so she didn't If you want to disturb me, keep waiting.
After a while, a servant's call came from outside the door, "Miss, Mr. Su, there is a little girl who wants to see you."
Su Qing went over to open the door to greet her, and saw a girl with a sword standing behind Zichai. Su Qing recognized it immediately, because it was very rare for a woman of her age to carry a sword. She is Bai Feng's "confidant" Yu Ke, and some say she is a foster sister, but in Su Qing's view, everything is just this girl's wishful thinking.
"Mr. Su, Miss, this girl said that I have something urgent to ask of you." Zi Chai has not exchanged greetings with Su Qing for a long time. After all, she has always regarded Su Qing as a respected elder, so she said one more sentence to him: "Mr. Su, I heard that you are coughing up blood again? If Mrs. Xiang finds out, she will be very sad. Please take good care of yourself, Mister. Mrs. Xiang must still be waiting for you to find her somewhere."
When Su Qing heard the other party mentioning these things, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He didn't have such an expression even after being insulted by Zhao Xiaomei just now: "Why do you suddenly say these things? I understand my own body, so don't worry too much."
"Well..." Zi Chai was not very satisfied with this answer, but she was just a young junior. How could what she thought and said make Su Qing interested? After thinking about it, she slowly accepted this fact - maybe Mrs. Xiang once begged as hard as she does now, Zi Chai thought to herself.
Seeing that Su Qing was also present, Yu Ke truthfully stated his purpose of coming and said, "Miss Zhao, Mr. Su, my sworn brother has suffered a great disaster recently. Please help me."
"Who is this girl?" Zhao Xiaomei asked.
"Yu Ke was once rescued by General Bai Feng, so he has always been with him and regarded him as a sworn brother." Yu Ke bowed his hands again and said in respect like a cautious man: "The sworn brother has been appointed to preside over the 'imperial competition' under the imperial city in three days. , according to the usual practice, every official selected to participate in the competition must recommend an outstanding martial artist to participate in the competition."
Su Qing then echoed: "The emperor is really energetic, and he actually has the heart to watch others compete."
Having said that, this famous thief and flower-picking thief keenly felt the gazes of the girls around him. He shook his head repeatedly and said, "I can't do it. If I show up in the imperial city, I might be arrested on the spot by some high-ranking official." Down!"
"Who else could it be?" Zhao Xiaomei thought hard. The only confidant around her was Su Qing, who was a martial arts master. There was no other way. However, Su Qing thought of two people who could help.
"Fu Wentao, he will definitely agree." Su Qing then thought: "It's just that he once committed the crime of robbing the 'Xianbei Saint' in the imperial city. If he is recognized, the end will be even worse than mine, and that bald head The monk is also an old acquaintance of Taiping Road..."
Yu Ke nodded in agreement: "So, I can only come here to ask for your help. My sworn brother is not willing to put Brother Fu and the others in trouble again."
When the two of them were undecided, Zhao Xiaomei stood up and ordered in a positive tone: "Su Qing, go and summon the two capable people you mentioned, and I will convince them to participate. Of course, If we can invite General Bai Feng as well, maybe things will go smoother."
Su Qing showed a charming smile, but he did not expose Zhao Xiaomei's purpose. He cooperated with her to deceive and successfully sent Yu Ke back.
