Chapter 50 Listening to music on the hook 1
The weather gradually turns cooler after autumn, and beautiful women who love beauty have begun to put on autumn clothes one after another. Beautiful new clothes have also been added to the sleeve burners that have been dusty for a long time. Some rich ladies carry beautifully decorated hand burners to come and go among each other. Comparing.
The late autumn nights are getting darker and faster, and the number of pedestrians on the street has gradually decreased. Even the vendors on both sides of the street have closed their stalls early, and went home to warm their wives and children with a bright smile.
Some families are happy and some are sad. Of course the one holding his wife's head on the hot bed is happy, but King Qi can only enjoy the misery.
"Hey!" Bi Yuntao was lying on the bed, tossing and turning. When he thought of himself entering Buddhism again, his balls ached. What the hell is this? The mother-in-law walked quietly just as she came quietly, waving her sleeves, without bringing anything with her. Walking away from a cloud, it only takes away a touch of red among the green leaves.
Forget it, it’s time soon, let’s go draw cards first. Last time I drew out my old friend. Although I drew cards every day after that, I didn’t draw out any good things anymore. They were just some miscellaneous things. , but based on the games I played in my previous life, if I haven’t released any good stuff for a long time, I must be holding back something I didn’t expect. Besides, if I could just draw a miracle, I would give it a try and turn my bicycle into a motorcycle, just to see if there will be any surprises today. .
As soon as the thought changed, my consciousness entered the card drawing system, silently counting the countdown on the card drawing button. When the time was up, I watched the card box in the card pool open, and the cards flew out one after another, and were arranged and closed in order. , then separate them in half, shuffle them using the half-and-half shuffling method, and then after several fancy and handsome Rifru-style shuffling methods, they finally stop, and then fly out one by one to form a wreath.
Although every time it ends up being a Rifulu-style shuffling method, I have to sigh at the professionalism of this technique, which is really eye-catching.
With a flash of golden light in front of his eyes, the card turned into a physical object and appeared in Bi Yuntao's hand. This... would this equipment be a bit bullying? ! Looking at the equipment in front of me, I fell into deep thought.
The beautiful life at night is always very short, and even the time for coding becomes very short.
Recently, she has been troubled by the trivial matter of seizing the legitimate son, and has been hanging around Ruoxi. It seems that it is time to have some fun and relax her tense nerves.
…
The air in the morning of late autumn is still fresh, but the weather has turned cooler, and the fresh air has brought a lot of coolness. The newborn sun stretches lazily, reluctantly crawling out of the reluctant warmth. The quilt almost wiped away a hint of chill from the late autumn morning.
In the morning, people who wanted to make a living wrapped themselves in thick cotton clothes and started a busy day. At this time in Prince Qi's palace, Bi Yuntao started his morning run with his shirtless body under the witness of Chaoyang.
After these days of recuperation, Bi Yuntao also realized that his physical fitness was really poor, so he made an exercise plan last night to cope with future crises. Although training now is a bit like sharpening one's skills before the battle, it is still better than it is now.
But the good times didn't last long. As soon as I finished my morning run, I heard Meng Ruolang's voice coming from the big mouth.
"Brother! What are you doing? No one is chasing you, why are you running around?"
Bi Yuntao panted and looked at Meng Ruolang, wiping his steaming upper body with a towel, "I am going for a morning jog to exercise. You haven't had breakfast yet, so we can come together. I have something to tell you. "After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the study. With his back to Meng Ruolang, a sinister smile appeared on his face.
"Brother! What's going on?" Meng Ruolang had just sat down and was about to enjoy his breakfast. "Why is this breakfast so shabby for such a huge Prince Qi's house?" He looked at the several plates of side dishes and two bowls on the table. Vegetable porridge, frowning, with a look of disgust.
"I don't know whether it's shabby or not, but I know you're going to be in trouble soon!" Before Meng Ruolang could react, he wrapped his hands around a towel and strangled his neck.
"Brother!" Meng Ruolang grabbed the towel tightly with both hands and pulled it out to resist.
Regardless of his resistance, Bi Yuntao continued to strangle his neck hard, and said through gritted teeth: "Okay, you! You dare to lie to me, right? It's a shame that I trust you so much!" Thinking of how he cried in front of him yesterday I can't help but feel pain in my balls like a fool.
"Hehe! That was all my sister's idea. I, I just obeyed the order and obeyed the command. Ahem! Brother, let go first, I can't breathe!"
"Don't worry! After you leave, I will burn a lot of paper money for you."
"Brother! No! I haven't seen my sister get married yet, and I...can't...die..." Meng Ruolang's eyes widened, her tongue stuck out of her mouth, she tilted her head and lost her voice.
"Tch!" Bi Yuntao curled his lips and let go of the towel. "It takes a stick of incense (5 minutes) to stop breathing to completely die. Just pretend, it's really boring." He threw the towel to the chair aside and took it. He picked up the bowls and chopsticks and prepared to eat, then asked about Ruoxi's condition, "Is Ruoxi feeling better?"
"Hehe! It's true that I can't hide it from my brother's eyes." Meng Ruolang put away her mischievous expression and said with admiration on her face, "After you left yesterday, my sister ate a lot of food, and my mother was very happy. . I came here today to ask eldest brother, how do you make your sister happy? Big brother is indeed an eldest brother, his ability to make people happy is amazing, I really admire him."
"Humph! Who am I? I am the King of Qi who makes all the women in the capital change their minds. I can't handle such a trivial matter." Bi Yuntao waved his hand and smiled triumphantly, pretending not to care, "You If you had come here earlier and told me that Ruoxi was sick, Ruoxi wouldn’t have suffered so much!”
"Hehe!" Meng Ruolang touched his nose in embarrassment, "I didn't mean to hide it from my eldest brother, it was my sister who asked me to do this. After my sister returned home, she started not thinking about food or tea, and her figure became worse and worse. I was losing weight, and then my sister called me over yesterday to perform a play with her to test your true feelings for my sister, and that’s what happened yesterday.”
Bi Yuntao looked at Meng Ruolang with a straight face, listening to his explanation, "Okay! I don't blame you, it's all my own fault. Eat quickly, it will be cold in a while."
"Hey! It's so boring. Xiaolan has also been brought back to the palace by her mother. No one can tease her anymore. It's really boring." Bi Yuntao put down the bowl and chopsticks and leaned back on the chair lazily, missing Xiaolan so much. Girl, Xiaolan is not here, how should we spend this long time!
"Hey, brother, do you want to go to the gambling house to play again?"
When Bi Yuntao heard this suggestion, he refused directly. "Tch! I'm too lazy to go. When I'm short of money one day, I'll go to the gambling house to withdraw money."
Seeing Bi Yuntao's firm refusal, Meng Ruolang lost all interest in making money again, "Then what are we going to do to kill time? How about going to Nishang Lake?"
"Huh?" Bi Yuntao became interested when he heard that Nichang Lake was here. Miaochun Pavilion, the place where the banquet will be held a week later, is located in Nishang Lake. "I remember that Miaochun Pavilion at Nishang Lake is interesting, but I don't want to go to a brothel. , If your sister finds out, then I will..." Bi Yuntao made a gesture of wiping his neck.
"Hehe, brother, you are so ignorant. There are not only many brothels and flower boats in Nishang Lake, but also many places where you can listen to music and operas. Some of the actors invited to banquets held by wealthy families are found here. ." Meng Ruolang knew that her eldest brother was only thinking about brothels and had no idea that there was an elegant place there.
"Huh? There is such a place for fireworks. You can go and listen to small songs. But I remember that Goulan is under the jurisdiction of the Jiaofang Division. Is it also open to the public?" Bi Yuntao was puzzled. Those Goulan dancers are in modern times. He can be regarded as a national artist, and he is eating royal food. Why would he go out to take private jobs? !
"Hey! Brother, you don't understand! Goulan is divided into the East Courtyard and the West Courtyard. The women in it are proficient in various musical instruments and music, and can sing and dance well. If there is any difference, it is that the East Courtyard is known among the people. People call it a brothel because it is used to collect money from outside. The women in the West Courtyard are all courtesans, and they are all very beautiful. All the dancers and singers in the royal family come from the West Courtyard."
Looking at the boastful Meng Ruolang with some surprise, I once again refreshed my understanding of him, "You know so many things! I, the prince, don't even know that there are so many ways in it."
"Not yet, brother, you have never been interested in listening to music in Goulan. Most of the girls in the East Courtyard of Goulan, that is, the brothels, are the wives and daughters of the defeated who were captured in the war, or they are civilian women who were raped back during the war, or they have committed crimes and were sent there. Yes. Those in the West Courtyard are better. Most of them have committed crimes such as corruption and are used as compensation. In addition, the imperial concubine will not let you mess with the dancers in the palace. After all, those dancers are not clean behind their backs. As for why not If you want to provoke me, I don’t need to say more, little brother."
"So that's it. Jiaofangsi is not only a gold-selling cave, but also a good place to wipe away dirt." Bi Yuntao nodded thoughtfully. His mother and concubine were right not to let him provoke him. Everyone in the capital knew that he Coveting for beauty, if one cannot control it, has a relationship with them, and then is taken advantage of by someone with malicious intentions, the consequences will be disastrous.
"Of course! What we are going to this time is the West Courtyard, which is generally called Goulan among the people, so without further delay, let's go quickly. There are many people who go to Goulan to listen to music. We can still get a private room if we go earlier. You don’t want to be seen listening to music in the hall. Although everyone knows that there are people there, if it reaches my sister’s ears, it will still have a bad impact.” Meng Ruolang’s eyes were filled with amusement.
Bi Yuntao shuddered and said, "Hurry up then, I don't want to be crowded in the hall. I'm going to change my clothes right now. Let's go there together in a while." When Bi Yuntao thought about the fact that he went to Goulan to listen to music, the news reached Mengruo. In Xi's jealous ears, when her jealousy rose, it was irritating to think about it. Although seeing her jealous made me feel happy, it was better not to cause unnecessary trouble.
