Since the Dajing Dynasty no longer imposed a curfew, it is not surprising that the lights are on every night. As a famous city in the world, Qingqian City has countless merchants and wealthy families. The grand scene at night is extremely spectacular. Tourists are constantly on the ten-mile long street, and the streets are full of BMWs and cars. The streets will not gradually disperse until dawn. Although Green Belt City is as famous as Qingqian City, it was not as prosperous as Qingqian City because it was a private fiefdom with a strict nighttime curfew.
Qingqian City has more than twenty Fengyue Dojos, large and small, which support countless beauties. Some extremely beautiful women will be sent to the Chunxian Pavilion in the capital to compete for the position of oiran, who will be rich in gold overnight. This seems to be making wedding clothes for others, but in fact it is to gain reputation for oneself. Nowadays, among the eight courtesans in Chunxian Tower who are famous all over the world, one of them comes from Qingqian City.
The oiran was deeply loved by the nobles of the dynasty, and made people all over the world fall in love with Qingqian City. When a foreigner comes to the city, as long as he has some money, he will almost go there to get intoxicated for a night. Even if he has no money, the worst is to see the moving scenery of the red-sleeved buildings full of people.
For example, there is a good saying spread all over the world,
"The beauty of spring fairy is the best in the world, and the beauty of green money is the best of spring fairy"
The night is dark. Gei Liu carries a red lantern and goes shopping leisurely with Taozhi. Both the master and the servant were wearing scarlet snow shirts, holding hands and whispering, appearing to be very intimate. If an outsider looked at it, they would definitely think that they were a couple of gods and immortals.
At night, Qingqian City has become increasingly grand. Singing houses, painted boats, hooked railings and tiles, wine shops and restaurants, and all kinds of lively sounds. Suddenly, fireworks were set off from nowhere. The bright fireworks bloomed like petals and blew down, and the stars were like rain, attracting the attention of many tourists. Even the brothel girl who was busy soliciting customers temporarily lost her mind. The cold wind carries the smell of fireworks and saltpeter, and the sweet smell of roasted sweet potatoes and fried chestnuts drifts from nowhere. In a blink of an eye, it seemed like the New Year was about to begin.
Gei Liu was a little touched by this and sighed softly: "It's great to have peace and prosperity."
But he also knew that although most of the people were happy with it, for them, who the ruler of the dynasty was and what their surname was, might not be as important as the three-thirds of an acre of their own land. As long as you can ensure peace and prosperity for the country and the people, and have good weather, what does it matter even if you are a beggar emperor or if you succeed to the throne by killing your father? It seems a little indifferent, but people's hearts have always been like this since ancient times.
Taozhi was eating the candied haws in small bites, but her red lips were even more attractive than the candied haws. If it weren't for the fact that the streets were full of people and it was a breach of etiquette, Geiliu would really have taken a bite. Apparently, Taozhi also figured out what he was thinking, her charming eyes became more and more captivating, and she flirted with Gui Liu several times, but the latter remained unmoved.
Taozhi stood on tiptoe and fed the chewed candied haws into Gui Liu's mouth. It seemed like a bold move, but in fact, Gui Liu's first kiss had already been taken away by this woman when he was a boy. Moreover, there is a secret that many people don't know, and only Taozhi knows it. It was Geiliu who told her personally. Although our prince is a romantic by nature and often gets drunk among flowers and willows, he has never been dissolute. She has never had sex with anyone, and even her lips have only been tasted by Taozhi until now.
"Is it delicious?" Taozhi looked expectant.
"It's so delicious, soft, fragrant and sweet." Guiliu stared at her lips with a smile.
Taozhi stood up on tiptoes, took a bite on Gui Liu's neck, and whispered softly: "I can taste it when someone else kisses Your Highness. If one day, the taste I taste changes, then I may... If you don’t like His Highness.”
As soon as she finished speaking, her ears suddenly turned red and she felt a tingling sensation. A lazy voice sounded in her ears, "As long as I am your master, you will never leave me. Even if you really don't like me, I will tie you up." For a lifetime. You can only have me for the rest of your life."
She bit her peach red lips lightly, dazed in a daze, her eyes a little moist.
Guiliu has already moved forward.
The two of them passed by a rouge shop. Taozhi didn't have much interest in it at first, but as a man, Geiliu became interested. After walking around, there was nothing worth paying attention to. The rouge and gouache were all good and the price was not expensive. In short, This is what a rouge shop should look like, not like the rouge shop in Xinghua Town last time where Wang Sizhi stepped on a mouse and almost fell down.
There were not many people in the rouge shop. Most of them were young men choosing for their sweethearts. Of course, there were also many beautiful women accompanying them. Gei Liu randomly selected among the dazzling array of rouges and gouache, and finally selected a box of lip balm to give to Taozhi, and bought a simple and elegant ebony hairpin for herself.
After paying the bill, Guiliu asked Taozhi to tie up his hair and tie up his loose white hair. The ebony hairpin inserted in the white hair is so conspicuous that it can be seen at a glance.
"Why did Your Highness suddenly think of inserting a hairpin?" Taozhi asked in confusion.
"White hair is too conspicuous. Not to mention that people often look at me strangely. Even if I see someone with snow-white hair, I will stare at him for a long time."
"Then your Highness, please dye yourself black from now on."
Guiliu shook his head, "I can't dye it. I've tried it many times."
The peach branch carefully touched the man next to her, her eyes became more and more dazzling, and she smiled sweetly: "Your Highness's white hair is also very beautiful. With the hairpin inserted, he looks like a god who forgets worries. Without the hairpin, he looks more feminine. Immortal The devil is confused."
Guiliu narrowed his Danfeng eyes and said with a smile: "The little mouth is so sweet, why don't you let the master take a bite?"
Taozhi stood on tiptoe slightly and closed her eyes.
But there has been no follow-up.
When she opened her eyes, Guiliu was still smiling, and just said, "I owe you first, and I will give you later."
The best inn in Qingqian City is the Yunmiao Inn in the center of the city. In the past, Emperor Gui Qi paid a private visit in disguise and also stayed here. Yunmiao Inn has a courtyard that no one dares to rent yet because it was once the residence of the emperor.
Today, a woman in a curtain hat came to the inn. It's strange to say that she doesn't want others to see her appearance. However, she held a white cat in her arms and looked elegant. She was so generous that she directly rented the courtyard where the emperor lived for a month. She even alarmed the owner of the inn, who had always seen dragons come and go. More than a hundred servants all knew about this. For a moment, the courtyard outside was surrounded by water.
It won't take long for the news to spread from one to ten, then to a hundred, throughout the entire Qingqian City, and then to the capital, and finally learned by His Majesty the Emperor. Wang Sizhi didn't know the reason why he wanted to be so flamboyant, he just did what Gui Liu said. Since he didn't say anything, she didn't want to ask these irrelevant things. All she cares about now is the fate of the Wang family and the chubby white cat in her arms.
In the courtyard, the woman holding the cat walked around casually, looked at the entire courtyard, and nodded with satisfaction. The man told her that she would live here for the next month or even longer.
To her, it didn't matter where she slept or lived after the Wang family was confiscated. But she was still a little happy to be able to live here. She didn't have to see that annoying charming woman every day, and she didn't have to travel hard in the snow. Moreover, she was settled down and finally had time to take good care of the cat.
Wang Sizhi sat down gently, and the white cat lay on the table, like a fluffy snowball. She stretched out her slender fingers, gently rubbed the white cat's little head, and said softly: "What name should I call you?"
"How about calling me Snowball." A man's voice came from behind.
Wang Sizhi never looked back, rubbed the white cat's little head, and said casually: "Why are you here, Your Highness?"
Guiliu sat down next to her, looked around casually, nodded and smiled: "The yard is not bad. At that time, my father said it was a private visit incognito, but he refused to wrong himself at all. Now think about it, how can he leave the palace incognito? In order to understand the sentiments of the people, I obviously wanted to trick a wife into returning home, which is my mother."
Wang Sizhi was a little curious. She wanted to know how stunningly beautiful this empress was when she was young. She could actually make the most noble man in the world put himself in danger several times, even at the cost of death. Pursue.
The corner of Guiliu's mouth raised and he looked up at the sky, "My father has no merits, but he is very courageous. Who else would have dared to pursue the most powerful demon in the world? My mother was arrogant at that time, and she was very courageous. If you meet a shameless loser like my dad, you will definitely kill someone without saying a word. My dad is also very lucky. He was dying several times and survived several times. This is him. Anyway, I don’t have the courage. . I remember that a few years ago, when I traveled to Longzhou, I wanted to go to the local brothel to have a look. However, my attendant received a secret letter, which was delivered quickly by the capital. I opened it and was dumbfounded. It said that Longzhou Someone in the brothel wanted to kill me. As a prince, I cherish my life and don’t want to die young, so not only did I not go to the brothel, I even fled back to the capital overnight."
Guiliu stretched, turned to look at her holding the white cat, and said with a smile: "When I was young, I always felt that I had seen the most stunning beauties in the world. At that time, I told my mother that I would not take a wife in the future. , it’s not interesting. My mother just smiled at that time, and then the next year, the world began to promote beauty assessment in advance. After that, I gradually discovered that women can be so beautiful, and there is no reason to be so beautiful. Then I never stopped It’s a matter of a lonely and widowed life.”
Wang Sizhi was a little surprised, "So the Beauty Review was implemented three years in advance, is it for you?"
Guiliu spread his hands and said helplessly: "There is no way. I am the only one in the Gui family, and my sister cannot pass on the incense. My mother wishes that I would have three thousand concubines in the harem to give her the blessing of having children and grandchildren around her." "
Wang Sizhi smiled and said: "His Highness has had countless affairs and owes so many peach blossom debts. Isn't it easy to get three thousand dollars?"
"You don't understand." Guiliu shook his head and said seriously: "It's not quantity, it's quality."
Wang Sizhi remained silent, lowered his head and gently touched the white cat in his arms with his chin. After a long time, I don't know if he was talking to himself, but he whispered: "What a pitiful man."
Gui Liu raised his head and glanced at the sky. The stars were dotted and the moon was as bright as beads. "It's getting late, I'll leave first, and you should rest early. You will live here these days, and I will come back to pick you up after I finish handling some things."
Wang Sizhi hummed, picked up the white cat, and walked towards the house.
Guiliu suddenly stopped and said, "Do you know how my father chased my mother in the end?"
Wang Sizhi did not turn around and said calmly: "The whole country is in turmoil and everyone in the world knows about it."
Gui Liu smiled and said, "Sleep alone, so be careful."
"I'm not a child."
Wang Sizhi crossed the threshold and entered the house.
That night, I don't know where the news came from, that the eighth most beautiful woman in the world was staying at Yunmiao Inn in Qingqian City. As soon as the news came out, the whole city was in a sensation, and the Yunmiao Inn was even more besieged, with everyone trying to catch a glimpse of his beauty. In this regard, the government is not allowed to send officials to clear the crowd and maintain order.
That night, another horrifying news came. From then on, all the young women in Qingqian City, no matter how fancy they were, stayed behind closed doors.
The whole city was in panic.
That news is:
"The third dandy in the world, he rode back to Qingqian from Chunxian Tower."
