Chapter 708: Yujing Pavilion.
Chapter 708: Yujing Pavilion.
Ying Yu was still a little confused after hearing this.
However, when he learned that it was Ge Peining who instructed it, he didn't say anything more.
He mentioned the matter of redeeming the courtesan.
It’s a pity that Qiuju’s mind is now on Liu Qiaoqiao.
If I could hypnotize myself into not liking the young master, or even hating him... and bearing humiliation, then when I was in love, wouldn't it be...
The more Qiuju thought about it, the more excited she became. She had no interest in the courtesan Ying Yu mentioned.
Ying Yu originally felt that it was his fault that the Mei Ya sisters escaped, and of course he wanted to redeem the courtesan to compensate Qiu Ju.
As the nominal leader of the four sisters, she still cares a lot about this matter.
At least Qiu Ju was negative for several days because of this incident.
She really treats the four sisters as her younger sisters.
Chuntao wanted to make a difference, so she gave her full authority to guard the mansion.
He also entrusted all the former spies from Yanshan to Xia He, making her not only Su Yuwei's assistant, but also her own team.
Qiuju, of course, joined her in the fun.
As for Dongmei, she is too weak-willed. Although she helps Xiaozhao manage all the affairs in the mansion, there are always servants who pretend to obey her but actually disobey her. To put it bluntly, they are jealous.
Naturally, Ying Yu stood up for him and brought out the Yanwang Mansion's punishment and reward system that was almost like military regulations. Naturally, no one dared to disobey.
Seeing that Qiuju showed no interest, he gave up the idea of inviting her to go.
Originally, Liu Qiaoqiao would only return to normal at midnight every night.
After the drug intervention prepared by Meng Siyu, time has begun to become somewhat uncertain.
Qiuju finally found some patterns, and now she doesn't want to go anywhere.
Ying Yu left embarrassedly.
Outside the mansion, the carriage was ready.
It was not the first time that the three of them went out in the middle of the night, so the servants in the mansion were naturally used to it.
The driver was the fat and blessed-looking Red Armored Soldier.
She is now dressed in casual clothes and looks like a very honest fat aunt.
Seeing that everyone was present, he drove the carriage with ease.
However, shortly after the carriage left.
Li Mu appeared outside the gate of the mansion. He turned his head to look at the carriage which was gradually disappearing, and said with a wry smile,
"It's really a comfortable life."
Yin Huanping had already informed Li Mu about the fact that these three girls always went out at night, and she even complained about it.
My daughter always goes out in the middle of the night, and it's really not nice to tell others about it.
But Li Mu didn't care much about it. After all, he was not born and raised in this world.
I am not interested in those so-called etiquettes.
The two sisters just went out shopping and had dinner together, it’s no big deal.
After taking a few casual glances, he went straight back home.
On the corridor.
Li Mu listened to the low discussions of the people in the mansion along the way and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"I heard that Yujin Pavilion has a new courtesan. Her appearance...tsk tsk tsk tsk."
"Yes, I have heard of it, but the life story of that courtesan seems to be a bit tragic."
"No, I heard that her parents passed away and she was deceived by her relatives."
Li Mu didn't care about it at first, but more than one person talked about it along the way, which made Li Mu pay attention.
Noticing the two little girls hiding in the shadows in the distance, they flashed and disappeared on the spot.
Behind the roof, two beautiful figures lowered their voices and whispered with frowns.
"Have you written it all down?"
"take note of it."
"Deal with it cleanly, don't let the young master worry about these trivial matters. Also, you have to be more careful, don't let this kind of thing happen again in the future."
Xia He had a stern face and there was a hint of reprimand in her tone.
Dongmei lowered her head, her two little hands clenched tightly together, like a kitten that had made a mistake.
Listening to Xia He's words, he just nodded continuously.
"What don't you want me to know?"
At this time, Li Mu suddenly appeared between the two girls, and then took each of them into his arms.
"Ah! Gong... Woo~"
Dongmei was about to scream, but then she quickly covered her mouth.
Xia He was very calm, with no emotion on her face, but the red tips of her ears gave away her thoughts.
"What bad things are you doing behind my back?"
Li Mu put his hand on the waists of the two little girls and smiled wickedly.
Dongmei was still covering her mouth. Just as she made a "wu" sound, she heard Xia He say seriously,
"My lord, a servant in the mansion has received bribes. The other party has some background, but we cannot find out his specific identity for the time being."
Li Mu was stunned, thought for a moment and asked,
"Are they the ones who mentioned the courtesan of Yujing Pavilion?"
"Yes, the purpose is currently unknown, but it should be related to Yujing Pavilion."
Xia He frowned, a hint of guilt flashing in her eyes.
Dongmei was held by Li Mu, her legs were already somewhat weak, most of her body fell on Li Mu, her face flushed, she whispered,
"It's all because of Dongmei's uselessness that she discovered these things."
Li Mu pondered for a moment, not knowing what to say.
This house is big, but that’s the only downside.
We cannot be sure that everyone is loyal.
At this moment, Yuanbao was seen running hurriedly on the corridor, his eyes looking around.
Li Mu hooked his fingers, and the transparent silk thread wrapped around her slender waist, and pulled her over. Without waiting for her to resist, he spoke,
"What day is today? None of you are sleeping so late at night."
Yuan Bao's fists were already raised, and when he heard the familiar voice, he quickly dispersed the Qi wrapped in his hands, then gently punched Li Mu's chest, smiled,
"Who said that? Yuanbao is very well behaved. Yuanbao heard that the young master has returned, so he came here specially to look for him."
"Looking for me?" Li Mu raised his eyebrows. This was the first time. He thought to himself that this little girl had also learned how to compete for favor.
He raised his hand and pinched her cheek, grinning,
"Who said that night that they didn't want to see me again for the next few days?"
Thinking of the angry words Li Mu said when he was bullied before, Yuan Bao's face turned red. He stomped his feet angrily, turned around and ran away.
Then he thought of the reason why he came to see Li Mu, and said as he ran,
"Miss, Miss asked me to tell the young master that Sister Xiaoyu is going to Yujing Pavilion to redeem an oiran for the young master."
"She, she is a female after all. If you are interested, it is better for you to go in person, so as to avoid gossip."
After saying this, the person disappeared.
Li Mu frowned, his expression somewhat solemn.
"Is it Yujing Pavilion again?"
……
"Sir, this is the finest Qiuzhou flower brocade, which is only available in this small shop in the entire capital."
"The newly arrived Jinzhou Haicha, would you like to come into the store and try it?"
There is no curfew in Xingchao, and the streets are still brightly lit at night.
In the carriage.
Lu Jianjia clenched her fists tightly, with her brows furrowed into the shape of the Chinese character “川”.
Even if a few people go out on weekdays, they go to places with fewer people.
The three of them would never come to a prosperous place like West City.
Li Linger noticed that Lu Jianjia was acting strange, reached out and held her cold little hand, and said,
"How about we go back."
"No, it's okay. It should be here soon."
Lu Jianjia clenched her teeth, a wave of manic emotion rising in her chest.
The streets of West City were only wide enough for two carriages to run side by side, and pedestrians on the roadside almost had to walk close to the carriages.
This was too close for her.
At this time, the carriage gradually stopped, and the voice of the fat guard came from outside the carriage.
"Commander, we're here."
Ying Yu also noticed Lu Jianjia's strangeness, frowned slightly, and said to the outside of the carriage,
"Go and arrange a private room, and then come to the rooftop to meet us."
After she finished speaking, Lu Jianjia smiled at Ying Yu with some guilt, then she took the hands of the two girls and disappeared in the carriage.
The fat guard was familiar with the situation and naturally knew how to arrange it.
There are four private rooms on the top floor, and no one is allowed to stay in the rooms on the left, right, and downstairs.
Although she was puzzled, she did not ask any questions, because her family's young master had plenty of money anyway.
Because of this incident, rumors of the Prince of Yan's tyranny had been circulating in the capital.
When the female members of the family travel, they act even more arrogantly than the current crown prince.
But because of Li Mu's title as Prince of Yan, even if some people disliked it, they dared not say it out loud.
