Qingxi Nine Songs, with its absurd playfulness and ecstasy, is obviously a man's gold-selling den, but as the most popular young man in the old courtyard of Qingxi, Yu Xiaotan said tonight that he couldn't hold it any longer.

This is also true. What is ironic and funny is that Tingmei Xiaozhu, who seems to be still in the limelight to outsiders, has actually had no income for nearly a year.

In the past year, no one has ever seriously cared about what happened to an old court oiran.

Even if a few people know the inside story, they will follow the crowd and blend in with the spectators. While loudly praising Miss Tan'er's solitary self-admiration, she is really clean, and at the same time secretly cursing that she is just a bitch waiting for the price. And sell.

Slowly, Yu Xiaotan dismissed all the servants. Now the remaining few, Chunhua, Qiushi, and Xiaoshu, are already her family. How can they bear to be separated?

Why are there so many orchids outside her small courtyard? Just for viewing?

Yu Xiaotan never said it. If Chunhua hadn't gone to the flower market several times with orchids outside the courtyard under her instruction, and occasionally exchanged them for a few taels of money, she might not even be able to support her own family.

Yu Xiaotan is twenty-three years old this year. She has no cultivation and is just an ordinary girl who has been reduced to a lowly status. She is so embarrassed and doesn't want to compromise. What should she do?

In this world, when others hear about tragic events, they may sympathize with or, in more serious cases, shed a few tears of sympathy. When they see tragic events with their own eyes, there are some who are filled with righteous indignation, and there are also those who stay away from them. If they have not experienced it personally, who can truly empathize with it? ?

In peaceful and prosperous times, when a loved one dies, family members may remain sad, and others may also sing. What's more, in today's troubled times, human life is as cheap as grass, and it is good not to harm others.

Wang Yeqing suddenly came here in the afternoon. The stubborn girl had no intention of telling her bad situation. She was unwilling to compromise or ask for help. She chose to struggle alone and then calmly accept death.

Unfortunately and fortunately, she fainted in front of her in the afternoon.

Now, taking advantage of such misery, are you going to cry and plead for life to Wang Yeqing and others?

Yu Xiaotan obviously didn't want to, so she kept talking and fell silent again.

Of all the people in the room, Liu Yueshan was probably the one who felt it the most. It was a feeling of powerlessness and paleness, and perhaps death would be the relief.

She squatted in front of the bed, covered Yu Xiaotan with the quilt, turned her back to everyone and said slowly: "I want to tell a story to Miss Tan'er. You guys will come in later."

Wang Yeqing should have guessed how Liu Yueshan would enlighten Yu Xiaotan, and pulled Mu Qing to the lobby.

After Mu Qing personally poured a cup of tea for Wang Yeqing, he said, "The disease in Miss Tan'er's heart is much more serious than the poison she was exposed to. Who could make her so miserable?"

At this time, several people who went out to clean the bathtub also came back. Wang Yeqing directly called Chunhua in front of him and asked: "I discovered the problem when I came in the afternoon, so I didn't ask because I knew your lady's temper. It's now like this, how can I still ask?" How long are you going to hide it?”

Chunhua's eyes were red but she didn't answer. Wang Yeqing looked at Qiushi with a cold face, and Qiushi whispered: "The lady secretly told her not to tell Madam before she returned to Suzaku City, so as not to cause any trouble to Madam."

"Do you think your lady treats me as an outsider?" Wang Yeqing laughed angrily. She wanted to curse a few words, but then she frowned and thought about it. She has been away for a few years and left the girl here without any care. There seems to be no reason. Speaking as an elder, I got angry with myself first.

Mu Qing waited for a moment and saw Wang Yeqing sitting aside without saying a word. He reluctantly ended the conversation and said to Yu Xiaoshu with a smile: "Did Miss Tan'er also tell you this?"

"Yeah." Yu Xiaoshu hummed, looking down at his toes. Even though he was feeling extremely uncomfortable, he still didn't say anything more.

"Do you want your young lady to die?"

"In no mood."

"Miss Tan'er has fallen into a dead end now. If we don't save her, it will be too late."

"Then how to save it?" Yu Xiaoshu's eyes widened.

Mu Qing smiled calmly and said: "I can take care of her and she can go to the ground tomorrow, but you have to exchange conditions with me."

Wang Yeqing came back to his senses and asked with his eyes: Are you really able to detoxify? Don't brag!

Mu Qing gave her a reassuring look and continued to point his chin at Yu Xiaoshu.

The childish look of a boy and the ambition of a man were mixed on Yu Xiaoshu's face, and his drake voice sounded much deeper than before, "I, Yu Xiaoshu, am only ten years old. I have no money or power, but if you can really save the young lady, I can work as a horse for you." , No, I can leave this life to you."

Everyone else in the room, including the two sisters Chunhua Qiushi, looked at Mu Qing expectantly. Wang Xiuwei kept a calm smile. Probably only Wu Ling was muttering in his heart that this guy was stealing his job. His sister Wu Qing even vaguely guessed that Mu Qing meant well.

Mu Qing maintained a proud posture, nodded with satisfaction and said: "As a young man, you should be brave enough to shoulder your responsibilities. Miss Tan'er and the others used to protect you, but now you are the only one in Mei Xiaozhu. , you should be strong and protect them."

Yu Xiaoshu's face was filled with enthusiasm, and he nodded seriously with a bulging face: "Tell me, sir, what do you want me to do?"

Mu Qing said slowly: "Firstly, from now on you will be responsible for your lady's dealings with us and delivering news. Secondly, tell me, who made Tingmei Xiaozhu become like this?"

Yu Xiaoshu was still a child under eleven years old. Now he thought that he was saving his young lady. After the obstacles in his mind were cleared, he nodded and said loudly: "It was that bastard Bai Liqun who caused it all by himself."

Bai Liqun? Haven't heard of it...

Mu Qing looked at Wang Yeqing, who frowned and said, "I thought it might be the Jiaofang Division, some evil thief who doesn't know how to restrain himself. Now it seems that the situation is much more serious than imagined." She looked at the person in front of her. Chunhua, "Is this person named Bai Liqun related to the City Lord's Mansion?"

Chunhua was cowardly and silent before, but now she understood that she still didn't ask for help from the people in front of her. The young lady was afraid that there was really no hope, so she slowly spoke out word by word.

It turns out that Bai Liqun is the nephew of Bai Hao, the current lord of Suzaku City. Bai Hao was busy with government affairs in his early years and had no heirs. Bai Liqun was the son of his younger brother Bai Rong, and he regarded him as his own.

This young man came to Zhuque City in the second half of last year. He didn't do anything serious all day long, not to mention bullying men and dominating women. He also caused several accidents when he first came here. But who is his uncle Bai Hao? As Zhuque City City Lord, what can't be settled?

Fortunately, Bai Liqun has indeed restrained himself a lot for some reasons, and he no longer teases women from good families on weekdays. He only goes to places like the old courtyard to look for flowers.

Now there is an enviable rumor at the banquet table, saying that Mr. Bai Liqun slept with eight of the nine courtesans in the old courtyard, and now only Miss Tan'er is left.

But Yu Xiaotan refused.

At first, there were still a few qualified fellows and aristocratic people who wanted to separate from Bai Liqun. They thought clearly that although Miss Tan'er was the most popular Qinghuan, Qinghuan was still a prostitute, and they expected that Bai Liqun would not get jealous over a prostitute and then get into serious trouble.

But Bai Liqun obviously didn't think so. He is a solitary eater, and whoever wants to touch the woman he likes must pay a heavy price.

So on a dark and windy night, the son of the aristocratic family with whom he had the fiercest quarrel, after drinking the flower wine, when he left the pavilion to return home, he stepped on the corner and failed to board the boat, so he drowned in the Qing Dynasty. In the creek.

The old courtyard was originally a place where women's gossip was popular, and it was passed down to ten, ten, and hundreds. From then on, there were many people who heard about Mei Xiao's building, saying that Yu Xiaotan had all kinds of things. In the past, those who admired her grace, those who thought they were noble The talented people also ignored that there is such a place in Qingxi.

After listening, Mu Qing said continuously: "No wonder, no wonder those people rushed over to join in the fun tonight."

Wang Xiuwei was a little curious, "What happened when my brother came here?"

Yu Xiaoshu, the boat boy at that time, glanced at Mu Qing and said, "Young master wants to pay a couple of silver to board the boat, which makes those around him very curious about who he is."

Mu Qing coughed and said, "Isn't this someone who finally dares to challenge Bai Liqun? They must be out of curiosity, not because of the shipping fee."

Yu Xiaoshu said expressionlessly: "It's because of that one tael of silver."

Mu Qing looked at Yu Xiaoshu with a smile on his face and said, "I'm going to treat your young lady."

Yu Xiaoshu immediately nodded vigorously and said: "Young Master is right."

The atmosphere in the hall became much more relaxed for a moment, and even the two pretty twin maids glanced at Mu Qing.

Not long after, Liu Yueshan slowly walked out from behind the screen. When Wang Yeqing looked at her, she curved the corners of her mouth upwards and nodded slightly, saying: "After I chatted with Miss Tan'er, she saw a lot of things and stopped taking blind alleys." .”

Wang Yeqing stood up quickly, held Liu Yueshan's hand and said, "Maybe only you can do this well."

Liu Yueshan forced a smile and said: "Sister, what do you say? We are all women, so we can help if we can."

Mu Qing paused as he walked behind the screen and sighed softly: "Sister, thank you for your hard work. Don't do this again."

Liu Yueshan looked back, with a slight mist in the depths of her bright eyes. Wang Yeqing sighed: "The brat is very dangerous. Unknowingly, he has almost become a friend of women, but he doesn't realize it yet. "

Liu Yueshan instantly understood the narrow-minded and teasing meaning in Wang Yeqing's words, smiled and said: "He really needs to pay attention, he is a good person, but it is difficult to be a good person."

The smell of mugwort in Yu Xiaotan's boudoir had not dissipated. When Mu Qing came in, she tilted her head and stared at Mu Qing's face without blinking.

Mu Qing nodded to her and said in a calm tone: "Look, there are always things in this world that are a hundred times more difficult than what you are doing now. How could a little Bai Liqun let Miss Tan'er destroy herself like this?"

Yu Xiaotan frowned and asked in surprise: "How did the young master know it was him?" Then he said worriedly: "It was Chunhua who said it. Young Master, you have to come to Zhuque City for no reason. It’s better not to get involved in this matter.”

"Did Sister Yueshan tell you?"

"Well, the young master is a good man."

The two of them asked and answered questions. Only God knows whether the answers were wrong. Mu Qing made it clear: "My identity is in conflict with that of Suzaku City. It doesn't matter if I have such an additional enemy."

Yu Xiaotan smiled and shook her head. Mu Qing walked to her bedside and sat down and said, "I have to ask Miss Tan'er to invite Miss Hongling here tomorrow."

"This is natural." Yu Xiaotan shrank and wrinkled his small nose and said: "Young master, you should call me Xiaotan."

"Well, Miss Xiaotan, I promised Yu Xiaoshu that if he tells Bai Liqun, I will detoxify you." Mu Qing bought Yu Xiaoshu a little, "Now please cooperate with Miss Xiaotan."
