Qingye Pavilion.
Look at the three-character lantern hanging on this building.
There is also the cheerful and melodious music coming from inside.
Zhou Lang was very curious.
"Another distinguished guest has arrived."
"Master, please come in quickly."
"I wonder if the young master has a wife he knows well?"
A coquettishly dressed woman immediately stepped forward to greet him with a smile.
"I'm just here to sit around."
Zhou Lang smiled lightly.
He was sent to Qingye Pavilion by this woman.
Zhou Xiaoshun followed helplessly and just entered the attic.
The two of them were like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, and they were both dumbfounded.
The lights were bright inside, and there were hundreds of guests sitting at more than a dozen tables in the spacious hall on the first floor.
A group of graceful dancers danced their enchanting bodies on the stage.
Show all kinds of charming figures in front of the guests without any scruples.
Zhou Lang followed the charming woman to the second-floor attic.
The second floor is even more lively.
There are people playing Pai Gow and throwing pot everywhere.
But everyone who can come here is wearing gorgeous brocade robes.
There were several women accompanying him.
Laughter and cooing sounds filled the entire floor.
"Sir, we still have a backyard here."
"That's where the princes and nobles should go."
"And tonight, it's the first time for the brides to come out of the palace."
"Young master, you can't miss it."
The charming lady could tell at a glance the robe the young man was wearing.
Only those with status as earl or above can wear it.
But it was also the first time she saw that a noble prince came here wearing formal robes.
Therefore, she was already very polite to Zhou Lang.
"The bride is coming out of the palace?"
"What does this mean?"
Zhou Lang secretly smiled in his heart, he thought it was the bride who was getting married.
"Young master, you don't know something."
"We at Qingye Pavilion look for beautiful ladies from all over the world every year."
"After receiving instruction in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, I will send him to the Imperial City."
"Show me your skills, gentlemen."
"There happen to be three brides on stage today."
"With only fifty taels of silver, you can enter the backyard."
The charming lady said with a smile.
"Then let's go to the backyard and have a look?"
Zhou Lang winked at Zhou Xiaoshun.
Zhou Xiaoshun had a helpless face and took out the banknote and handed it to the charming lady.
"Sister, please give back one hundred taels to me."
The lady smiled and took the banknote, then turned around and handed it to a boy.
Then he led Zhou Lang and the two of them through the long corridor between the pavilions.
Walking all the way deeper into the backyard...
Go through the deep alley.
Arriving at the door of a closed compound.
It was already very quiet here, and the charming lady knocked on the courtyard door.
With a click, the courtyard door opened.
Immediately there was faint laughter inside.
"Master, please, I won't go in."
The lady bent down to salute, turned and left.
"My money..."
Zhou Xiaoshun said quickly.
"Go in, and a servant will naturally leave it to you."
The charming lady answered from a distance.
Zhou Lang had already stepped into the gate, turned around the screen wall, and walked through a garden.
What greeted us was a gorgeous pavilion with shining lights.
The stairs across the street were filled with countless people.
They were all watching the dancers perform on the stage attentively.
There were many men holding a beautiful woman with disheveled clothes and charming eyes.
Their hands were still roaming around the bodies of the women in their arms.
The sound of gasping continued to come from all around.
Zhou Lang's face felt hot when he saw it.
Zhou Xiaoshun had just received a hundred taels of silver note from a boy.
Turning around, his eyes widened in an instant, and he quickly turned around and hid aside.
"Sir, this is not a serious place."
"You'd better not go."
"The money was also given, and everyone came."
"You can't come here in vain."
Zhou Lang strode forward and looked at an empty seat.
He sat down without hesitation.
Looking at the beautiful women on every man around them, they are all disheveled.
Even the thin gauze skirt of the dancer who was dancing on the stage could not block anything.
Zhou Lang couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Ancient times were even more open than modern times.
"Sir, do you have a wife you know well?"
A clear female voice sounded in his ears.
Zhou Lang turned around and immediately saw a beautiful woman appearing behind him with a smile.
"Son..."
Zhou Xiaoshun quickly reminded him with a wink, one hand trembling slightly in his sleeve.
Zhou Lang instantly understood that this boy was worried about not having enough silver.
Ma De, what kind of prince is this? He is just a loser...
"No need, this is my first time here."
"Just came over to take a look."
Lu Zhuo declined with a smile.
The beautiful lady left helplessly, and he continued to admire the graceful dancing on the stage.
But he didn't realize that it was on a windowsill somewhere on the second floor.
Several pairs of eyes were already fixed on Zhou Lang.
"Brother Xiang Cheng, isn't that a fool from Linping County Prince's Palace?"
"He actually came to Qingye Pavilion."
A noble man said with a smile.
"It's indeed him!"
"If he hadn't stopped us last time, we would have succeeded."
"This kid faked his injuries and even caused us to be imprisoned for two days!"
"Come on, let's go tease him."
The noble young master known as Brother Xiang Cheng stood up with a sneer.
He led the two noble gentlemen out of the private room and followed the stairs to the garden outside.
Zhou Lang was still admiring the graceful dancing of the dancers.
It cost me fifty taels of silver to get here. If you don't look at it, you'll be at a loss.
"Hey, this is not the stupid prince from Linping County Prince's Palace."
"Our Mr. Lang."
Suddenly, three young men in fine clothes walked in front of him.
With a provocative look, he stared at Zhou Lang disdainfully.
"who are you?"
Zhou Lang asked with a frown.
Although he came through the soul, he didn't have any memory of his previous life.
These people just looked familiar, but he didn't know their specific identities at all.
Zhou Xiaoshun in the distance saw the moment when the three people appeared.
A look of horror suddenly appeared in his eyes.
His master was seriously injured, and it was these three people who caused the trouble!
Unexpectedly, we met here tonight!
"Haha, brother Xiang Cheng, this stupid prince can really pretend."
"We studied together in school since childhood, and he pretended not to know us?"
Huang Cheng said with a smile.
"Brother Lang, you can be considered my cousin after all."
"Are you deliberately pretending not to know me just to fool me?"
"I heard that Brother Lang went to the House of the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance to propose marriage today."
"Why didn't you enjoy the dinner at Gu's house, and why did you go to Qingye Pavilion to have fun?"
Zhou Xiangcheng asked with a sneer.
His father is the eighth younger brother of His Majesty, who was given the title of King Han.
From official to minister of rites, he is a third-grade official.
Together with Zhou Lang's father, he is the prince of the late emperor and the younger brother of his current majesty.
The two are also related as cousins.
They both went to school together in the Imperial College since childhood, but their personalities didn't get along with each other.
I don't usually deal with it very much.
It wasn't until he grew up in recent years that Zhou Xiangcheng understood.
Although they are both members of the Zhou royal family, this cousin's strength is far inferior to his own.
He never took Zhou Lang seriously again.
