"Sir, how many are there?"
As soon as Liu Zheng and Liu Zheng came over, an old madam rushed over, grabbed one of their arms with one hand, smiled brightly, and pretended to be mysterious: "Master, you are here today! Today is Miss Manqing's first day in the cabinet. ah!"
Here, leaving the pavilion does not mean getting married, but means officially opening the door to welcome guests.
"real?"
Liu Zheng chuckled.
As soon as the old bustard saw Liu Zheng's splendid clothes, he knew he was not an ordinary young man. He praised him in various ways: "You don't know, right? Miss Manqing, you are good at playing chess, calligraphy, painting, playing, playing, and singing. You are proficient in everything!"
"Haha, I like playing and singing, I like it!"
Liu Zheng hasn't spoken yet.
A group of people were already walking next to him. A young man in brocade clothes, surrounded by a group of servants, walked over in a domineering manner. Many passers-by could not escape, so they were punched and kicked by these villains.
"Oh, Mr. Chen! You are a rare visitor. You are a rare visitor!"
As soon as the madam saw the person, she immediately let go of Liu Zheng and greeted him respectfully.
"Hmph! I heard that Miss Manqing is out of the cabinet, so I'm going to wrap everyone up today!"
Young Master Chen was full of pride and laughed loudly, but the dark circles caused by drinking and sex were already glowing with lust. Others shook their heads when they heard this. It seems that this girl Manqing is a pure hermit, and I am afraid she will not be able to gain anything today. OK.
Who in the whole city doesn't know that this Chen Xiang is a complete playboy, sensual and sensual, and does all kinds of evil.
"Okay, Mr. Chen, please!"
As soon as Chen Xiang arrived, the whole crowd gathered around him. As the young master of the Chen family, one of the four most prominent families, he was always liked by others wherever he went.
Liu Zheng and Qin Changfeng followed quietly.
As soon as he entered Wanhua Tower, as expected, a wave of overwhelming energy hit his face. The environment is as unbearable as ever. There are many scattered seats in this hall. There are private rooms on the second floor and a resting place on the third floor. Naturally, everyone knows what this place is for. In the hall, many people were acting wildly.
Many of them can be identified at a glance as scholars and literati, and some are businessmen who come to Yinzhou to do business. Most of those businessmen, holding girls in their arms and drinking wine, were rough people. As for the literati, they were also shaking their heads and uttering articles, but their hands were also very dishonestly scratching the fan's body, and occasionally they would add a racy poem to make a group of people applaud each other.
The scene is very interesting.
"Master Chen is here, shut up!"
As soon as Chen Xiang arrived, some scoundrels immediately shouted loudly.
The scene fell silent for a moment, and there was a lot of discussion.
The people in Yinzhou shut their mouths when they heard Mr. Chen, while those doing business looked unhappy. But when others mentioned Mr. Chen's majesty, he wisely kept his mouth shut.
"Hahaha good!"
Chen Xiang felt that he was quite majestic and waved his hand: "It doesn't matter, Wanhua Tower, it just wants to be lively! When it is lively, I like the excitement! I will take care of everyone today!"
"good!"
"Mr. Chen is grand!"
Everyone was trying to please him.
Chen Xiang sat down boldly and looked around proudly: "What were we discussing just now? Continue!"
A man who looked like a poor scholar stood up, raised his glass and said, "Just now, colleagues, we were talking about the newly built County Marquis' Mansion. Will Yinzhou be transformed in the future?"
Everyone nodded.
Liu Zheng was also interested in what he heard. He ordered a pot of wine and a few taels of meat and sat here to listen.
When Chen Xiang heard this, he immediately sneered: "County Marquis? Are they the Liu family father and son who have been hanging out with a bunch of commoners these days? Who doesn't know that the Liu family son is a prodigal? How promising can he be?" "
"Hahaha!"
"joke!"
The servants also laughed in mockery.
"Remember, in Yinzhou, the county magistrate's office is a joke!"
Chen Xiang looked arrogant and shouted: "Only my four famous families are the real kings here!"
"Domineering!"
"Mr. Chen's arrogance is so great that it's so obvious!"
"With the Chen family here, Yinzhou will not be in chaos, and we will feel at ease!"
A group of scholars immediately complimented him and raised their glasses.
However, at this time, a thin scholar who looked like he was covered in patches said solemnly: "But I think that Mr. Liu is not a dandy. He is rational and orderly in doing things, and he has great authority in troubled times. He was a trustworthy man in the past few days. Gather the diners, and one day the county lord will rise and his official body will be white, could it be just one word from him?"
This sudden point of view immediately caused the whole room to change color.
A scholar in brocade clothes said proudly: "To build a building, he first chooses the craftsmen and then the raw materials; to govern the country, he first chooses assistants and then decides the people! How can this county magistrate, who eats and lives together in white commoners, be as majestic as the superior?"
Another person also criticized: "When a county magistrate is newly established, he must first establish his authority! Without class, how can there be authority?"
A group of people began to quote scriptures.
The thin scholar said: "But those who govern a country should make the people rich! The world's order depends on the people's prosperity, the world's peace depends on the people's happiness, and the world's prosperity depends on the people tending to be righteous! What's wrong with the county magistrate and the people enjoying themselves?"
Thus, this debate in the land of fireworks began.
Liu Zheng was also surprised to see that in this era of solidified classes and solidified ideas, it was already very difficult for people to have such insights.
"Shen Xing, do you mean that our Yinzhou will no longer be happy under the jurisdiction of several prominent families?"
Several people seemed to be mocking, deliberately dragging their hatred towards Chen Xiang over there.
Shen Xing was a little stubborn and said harshly: "The sky is like a branch, and the people are like deer. Such inaction requires the power of the country and the prosperity of the state! Now Yinzhou is exhausted, how can it always be like this?"
“It’s extremely ridiculous to seek something out of nothing!”
"It is the blessing of the people to seek and achieve something!"
"Without government, how can we do anything?"
This Shen Xing was not afraid at all in the face of the ridicule of so many people, and spoke loudly and forcefully.
"Be bold!"
"Shen Xing, how dare you disobey Mr. Chen?"
"You are just naked, but you still dare to speak nonsense?"
However, such a view was immediately criticized by everyone. There is no other reason. Mr. Chen said that the person is not good, but you insist on saying that he can do it. Are you not giving us, Mr. Chen, face?
You know, Mr. Chen has everyone involved today, and all the wine you drink belongs to Mr. Chen!
Chen Xiang also looked at Shen Xing coldly: "Are you doubting the strength of my Chen family or our noble family?"
Several servants rolled up their sleeves and looked menacing.
Shen Xing's face turned pale: "Shen Xing doesn't dare!"
"Call me out!"
Chen Xiang couldn't bear it anymore.
Today he came here to see Miss Manqing, and he must show his absolute control here. How dare someone deny him face?
"This this……"
Shen Xing was so frightened that he rolled and crawled.
The servants of the Chen family had already surrounded him, seeing that Shen Xing was about to be severely beaten.
"stop!"
Liu Zheng was about to let Qin Changfeng take action. Who would have thought that at this moment, a graceful voice came from the restaurant's wing: "In the restaurant, everyone expresses his or her own opinion, and the royal family doesn't care. Does this Chen family think that in Yinzhou, they are better than me?" Do the Long Yan Dynasty royal family still want to be domineering?"
"you……"
The whole audience was shocked.
This is heartbreaking enough.
When Chen Xiang heard this voice, his face changed slightly, and he laughed: "Who is it? It turns out to be the eldest lady of the Zheng family, it's me, Meng Lang! The eldest lady has been missing for a while, why, could it be Is Miss Zheng also a fan of Miss Manqing?"
A group of people suppressed laughter.
Of course, they didn't dare to laugh.
The eldest lady of the Zheng family!
The Zheng family, which is also one of the four famous families, is no less powerful than the Chen family, and the backer behind the Zheng family is the current Queen Zheng of the Longyan Dynasty! I heard that the eldest daughter of the Zheng family is very beautiful, but she is already in her twenties and has not yet been married. There are rumors that she does not like men and prefers women. This rumor is shocking in this era, but And because of the overwhelming power of the Zheng family, no one dared to quote more.
Chen Xiang's words were considered to be provoking Miss Zheng, but the others did not dare to let go.
Liu Zheng heard this with great interest.
I didn't expect that there would be so many interesting people and things happening in this restaurant on a whim.
"When the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win over countless others in the world."
Miss Zheng chuckled, and her noble voice sounded.
"Do you think the person who can write such a masterpiece that will last forever is a dandy like you?"
Chen Xiang's face darkened.
Liu Zheng actually laughed after hearing this, he is still a knowledgeable person!
Right now.
"Miss Manqing is here!"
The whole audience became energetic and looked around.
The atmosphere of the entire restaurant seemed to be different. A woman wearing a gauze red dress and a veil walked out of the back compartment, accompanied by strings of silk and bamboo in the restaurant. The soft music made the woman sway, even though she was wearing a veil, But at one glance, one could tell that this girl was absolutely of heavenly beauty, with the appearance of a fish out of place.
Still holding the pipa, half covering his face, he plucked the strings three or two times.
The more mysterious it is, the more attractive it is.
In an instant, the noise in the entire restaurant suddenly stopped.
All eyes were drawn to her.
The atmosphere that was lewd just now became much fresher in an instant.
beautiful!
Liu Zheng, who has seen various celebrities and Internet celebrities in later generations, couldn't help but his eyes lit up. Who would have thought that in such a barren land, there could be such a beautiful woman?
What's more, that Chen Xiang looked like a pig brother and was drooling.
"Okay, okay!"
Chen Xiang no longer bothered to argue with Miss Zheng and shouted: "Reward, give me a reward!"
For a while, I couldn't find any reason to reward him with money, so I just wanted to show my prowess.
"Thank you, sir."
Miss Manqing smiled slightly, her voice was cold, and she sat on the balcony of the second floor. At this time, a guqin was already prepared here.
Everyone was granted the soul color, and for a moment they forgot the focus of the debate.
Dong dong dong...
This girl, Manqing, is really proficient in playing, playing and singing... She comes out with a song in memory of an old friend, which has an atmosphere of deep boudoir and resentment, which suits her temperament.
Lonely, aloof.
The piano skills are exquisite and the lingering sound lingers.
People were fascinated to hear it.
"Okay, give me a reward!"
After finishing the song, Chen Xiang was even more excited. He finally found the reason for the reward and squandered a lot of money.
Not only that, he couldn't bear it anymore and called the madam and shouted: "How much silver? Tell me, I want to redeem Miss Manqing's life!"
The boss looked bitter when he heard this: "Mr. Chen, Miss Manqing did not sell herself to our restaurant. I can't make the decision on this matter."
"fart!"
Chen Xiang was furious: "Can I still buy the person I want to buy? Five hundred taels, is it enough?"
He took out a banknote and threw it in the face of the madam very domineeringly.
The madam still looked embarrassed.
"Okay, how about a thousand taels?"
Chen Xiang gritted his teeth, this thousand taels was not a small amount. For people in this era, financial freedom can be directly achieved. Not only that, it is also financial freedom for the whole family!
"This, this, this..."
The madam was very moved and glanced at Miss Manqing over there.
"What, it's not enough?"
Chen Xiang was a little unhappy, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes: "Old Madam, do you know who I am!"
"Why, Mr. Chen, are you trying to force others to do something difficult?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Miss Zheng made a sound again in the private room on the second floor.
"Mr. Chen, please think carefully. Miss Manqing is not an ordinary shepherd. She is a free woman. She only came to a barren place like Yinzhou because of her family's sins."
"It's not that simple to win Miss Manqing's favor. Otherwise, will it be your turn?"
Miss Zheng sneered again and again.
Everyone looked at each other in shock.
Isn’t she just a woman from a land of fireworks? Do you still have so many tricks?
"Oh? What about that?"
When Chen Xiang heard this, he smiled arrogantly and said: "In that case, it's easy to handle! Miss Manqing said, how much money is enough! Don't worry, my Chen family has plenty of money!"
Miss Zheng stopped talking and snorted disdainfully.
really.
The girl Manqing expressed her gratitude again and said with a cold smile: "Mr. Chen, although Manqing is a guilty person, the court has a destiny. My father's sins are not as bad as those of the family, so Manqing is not a slave. Come on." When I come here, I just want to make some money to fill my stomach, and I have no other thoughts."
Everyone else nodded when they heard this.
There are many such things in the Longyan Dynasty.
According to the laws of the Longyan Dynasty, generally unless a person has committed a heinous crime, there is no need to implicate the Nine Clans. As long as the principal criminal is exiled, other family members can be free.
As soon as I heard that Miss Manqing was so aloof, I knew that this girl was definitely not an ordinary person. Miss Zheng must know her identity, so even Miss Zheng, who is such a "sexy" woman, probably would not dare to force others into trouble.
"Pack!"
When Chen Xiang heard this, he suddenly felt a little sad.
This restaurant had been promoting this Man Qing in various ways before. Who would have thought that today, no one would get involved?
This is too much!
"Hahaha, it turns out that Mr. Chen only has this ability?"
At this moment, Liu Zheng finally couldn't help it anymore and sneered again and again.
This Chen Xiang, in public, said that he was a playboy. If he had just repaid it before, now Liu Zheng, the county magistrate's mansion is about to be rebuilt, and the gang of rural villagers are at his disposal, how can they take this kind of young master in their eyes? Any grudge must be reported on the spot, not the next night!
This sudden laughter immediately attracted the attention of many people.
"Who are you?"
"presumptuous!"
"How dare you insult my young master?"
The servants picked up the things and were about to come over.
Liu Zheng held the wine glass in one hand and did not panic. He laughed and said: "What? You want to touch me? Do you deserve to be punished for beating the son of the county magistrate?"
"who?"
"The son of the county magistrate?"
Chen Xiang was stunned for a moment, then laughed, his eyes full of mockery: "Are you the Liu family's kid?"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"So the cat is hiding here!"
In the past few days, the county magistrate and his son had been the subject of intense discussion throughout Yinzhou. Suddenly Liu Zheng was here, and all kinds of curious and appreciative eyes were thrown at him.
Appraising, curious, mocking, each person has a different look.
Then Chen Xiang couldn't hold back his laughter: "Master Liu is not building a house at home, so what are you doing here at Wanhua Building?"
People also burst into laughter.
Sure enough, he is indeed the most handsome man in Liangzhou. He has only been in Yinzhou for a few days, and he can't help but go to this land of fireworks to look for flowers and flowers?
In the wing room on the second floor.
Miss Zheng couldn't help but open the window and look down.
Liu Zheng remained calm in the face of Chen Xiang's ridicule and continued to smile: "Mr. Chen is indeed worthy of being a son of a rich family. I see that since you came into this restaurant, you are talking about money. Why, the Chen family has a lot of money?"
He smiled coldly.
He took out a pile of banknotes from his pocket and threw them on the table with a bang.
"Boss, come out, I, Liu Zheng, bought this Wanhua Building!"
The whole place fell silent.
