Chapter 29

Mingran said: "The wheel of the car."

Hearing the words, Yu Jinfeng shoved him viciously. Unexpectedly, Mingran fell backwards, but he was startled, and hurriedly grabbed his arm and pulled it back, but with too much force, Mingran accidentally knocked on his forehead. His hands were hot and covered with a thin layer of sweat. He moaned softly: "What are you doing?"

Yu Jinfeng finally came to his senses, and reached out to cover his forehead: "Are you feeling unwell?"

Mingran said: "Yes, probably I still love Yinzi too much, and haven't slept well for several days." He slowly leaned on the cushion behind him, and said again: "Don't say it, it's shameful. I'll be fine in two days .”

Yu Jinfeng wanted to settle accounts with him, but he didn't know where to start, so he held his two cold hands in his palms to warm them, and murmured: "I won't say anything, but you promised me All words must be fulfilled.”

Mingran sneered and said, "Isn't it just a daughter-in-law? I asked you to take a peek at the female relatives of each family during the last treat. They are all decent official ladies. Except that they don't have much martial arts, the rest meet your requirements. , and you refused to go. In fact, in Yunjing, not your Huyingbao, it doesn't matter if you have martial arts, and I don't know what you think."

Yu Jinfeng said: "Miss Guanjia is so delicate, she always feels like she will break if touched, but I don't want it, I just want to find someone who can go to heaven and earth with me. Besides, my group of subordinates look like you today. See, everyone is so dick, how can the lady of the official family calm them down easily? They have to be convinced. For example, tonight, I see them...they..."

He hesitated, not knowing what to say, but Mingran laughed and said, "That's right, it's really not easy to get along with your subordinates like ducks in water. No matter what, you have to be like your four little wives, Bingxue Diji." It’s only possible, otherwise how can we get together. How about this, I just want to go to Yanhua Academy once, and I heard from my uncle that the oiran girl who is going to be the top card in his place is going to comb the cage in a few days, so I’ll go and get it for you how?"

He was joking, but as soon as he said this, the sedan chair fell into a strange silence.After a while, Yu Jinfeng suddenly laughed: "Okay, that's okay. Let's be the number one, Oiran, I'm worthy of such a person! Young Master Ming always says what he says, I will remember it!"

The fact that girl Luo Qinniao of Yanhua Academy wanted to comb her cage was a rumor a few years ago, and now it has made the disciples of Yunjing excited again.Mingran had already entrusted Zhong Xu to find him a private seat with a hidden location but a wide view, and he came early with Yu Jinfeng.After the two of them entered Yanhua Academy, a young servant in Tsing Yi led the way, and they were taken to the second floor of Wenque Building.

After being seated, look around, and see that the hallway in the middle is huge, and the tables and chairs have been arranged neatly.There is a high white marble platform in the north, with carved railings and jade brickwork, decorated with various fragrant flower balls, and layers of bead curtains cover a door behind the platform.

Ming Ran ordered the young man to look for Zhong Xu, told him that he had arrived, and explained to Yu Jinfeng: "The old rules of Yunjing oiran combing cages, girls will perform singing and dancing skills on that stage later, if you see For those who are in the middle, send name cards first, and then send up gold, silver or gifts with ruthless hands. Of course, this is only on the premise that you can afford the money, and you will pay attention to these things."

Yu Jinfeng said coldly: "Then do you have enough money? Anyway, I have no money."

Mingran said: "All the expenses today will be paid by the seat owner."

He turned his head to look at Yu Jinfeng, seeing that his beard was still covering everything up, so he said, "Do you not like this, if not, let's go."

Yu Jinfeng said: "Why don't I like it? I like this kind of place the most. It's like being at home. Doesn't Master Ming know that I, Yu Jinfeng, was born in this kind of place? It's a pity that the place is not ten miles away from your Tangzi in Yunjing There are eight levels. If you can get the oiran here to enjoy this time, you will be lucky in the next three lives."

Mingran stared at him for a while, then slowly said: "Look, if the oiran doesn't like you, then he won't mention the matter of redemption, and it's not impossible to sleep overnight and leave."

Someone lightly tapped the crystal wind chime on the fan of the private seat, and they both turned their heads at the same time, and saw a woman with a tall cloud bun, only in her twenties, with a tall figure and skin like jade, wearing a smoky purple cloud brocade gown, with Wearing two crystal clear suet jade bracelets, followed by two maidservants in green clothes.Her eyes were full, and she smiled before saying a word: "I dare to ask, but Hui, the Marquis of Yongjiang, is here, and my concubine Dong Xiangji is very polite here."

Mingran hurriedly got up to return the salute: "I have heard Boss Dong's name for a long time, but I have no chance to meet him. Today's meeting really deserves his reputation." Seeing that Yu Jinfeng was still sitting still, he used the table and chair to cover him, and kicked him on the calf. Reluctantly, Yu Jinfeng got up and gave a casual salute.

Dong Xiangji smiled sweetly, and approached lightly with lotus steps: "This concubine has been ordered by my uncle Guo to come to visit the young Marquis of Ming. If there is anything inappropriate, you must tell my concubine clearly, and I will ask someone to mediate." .”

Mingran said: "No, everything is fine. My companion said just now that once he entered Yanhua Academy, he felt at home immediately. Why doesn't my little uncle see him, but there are other important things?"

Dong Xiangji slowly raised his sleeves, covered his mouth with a smile and said, "Uncle Guo is very busy at the moment. All the sisters in Yanhua Academy have to be groomed by Uncle Guo himself to put on make-up and take care of clothes. There are six points for a person, and Uncle Guo is wonderful, and he can do ten points. Uncle Guo has contributed to the fame of the academy in the past two years, and I am also very grateful in body and mind." , if my uncle hadn't revealed her life experience, she wouldn't have been able to tell that she was once a widow who had undergone tremendous changes.

The corners of Mingran's lips twitched twice, secretly thinking that my uncle was busy with this every day.He picked up a clay gold seal on the table and handed it to the maidservant in Tsing Yi behind Dong Xiangji: "It is said that everyone who enters the Wenque Tower today has to pay 50 taels of head fee first, but no one took my money just now. , I think it’s because of my little uncle’s face that it’s not easy to charge. But you are a businessman, I can’t break the rules, Boss Dong, don’t be polite.”

Dong Xiangji smiled and said: "The concubine is not polite, thank you, young master Ming. Is the young master here for sister Luo today?"

Mingran said: "Yes, I heard that Miss Luo is the most talented girl in Yunjing. If you are lucky enough to kiss Fangze, you must not miss it."

Dong Xiangji smiled and said: "If I can get the favor of the Marquis of Yongjiang, my little sister must be extremely honored. It's just that my little sister is a little bit savage, picky and picky, and I am used to it in my daily life. If she... "

She hesitated and didn't know how to speak, Mingran said empathetically: "Boss Dong, don't worry, if you really can't get the top spot, you can only say that I am not sincere enough to get into Miss Luo's eyes, how can you blame Miss Luo."

The two of them just chatted a few words, and several groups of people came to look for Dong Xiangji, who were waiting outside the private seat and hesitated to talk. Mingran saw it in his eyes and hurriedly said: "There are many guests today, and everything is complicated. Boss Dong You're welcome, hurry up and go."

Dong Xiangji bowed deeply again: "Thank you, Marquis Ming, for your understanding." He withdrew.

Watching Miss Dong leave, Yu Jinfeng stared sideways at him, snorting and said, "Didn't you say you're looking for a wife for me, why did you want to kiss Fangze?"

Mingran said: "If you don't like it, the money will not be wasted. Of course I can kiss Fangze. If you fall in love with Miss Luo at first sight, I can only give it up and find someone else to have fun." He suddenly approached Mingran stretched out his hand and pulled off his beard very quickly: "Since the little girl is a bit picky, how can she let you get close to me with such a beard? I don’t even want to look at you any more.”

Yu Jinfeng was caught off guard by him stripping off his disguise. A trace of panic flashed in his eyes, and he quickly raised his sleeves to cover his face. When he repented, he put it down embarrassingly, a bit uncomfortable: "If you don't like it, you don't like it. What's the matter?" Rare." He took the false mustache and stuffed it into his pocket.

At this time, many people came to Wenque Building one after another, some went to the private seats on the second floor under the guidance of the maids of the academy, and some went directly to the seats in the lobby below, and the chatter gradually became lively.Mingran watched for a moment, then said, "Many acquaintances."

Sure enough, there were a lot of acquaintances. Lin Shangshu from the Ministry of War came with a group of people, and sat in an inconspicuous place downstairs, and two cousins ​​from the Pingnanhou Mansion also came, and sat in another inconspicuous place.In addition, many people he knew in the court came, and the big guys greeted each other frankly, chatting about family affairs, and competing with each other.Mingran watched with cold eyes, and glanced at a man in brocade clothes. Suddenly, his face turned gloomy, and he slammed the teacup on the desk: "You dare to come out to fool around after you're married. I'll beat him up."

As soon as he stepped out of the private seat, Yu Jinfeng hurriedly followed him: "Who are you going to beat? Calm down first."

He Ercheng, who was sitting in the corner, suddenly felt that there was someone else on the chair opposite him. He turned his head to look, and saw a person leaning against the desk with his chin in his hand, wearing a lacquered satin toga with peony dark pattern, sheep A small but round south bead is inlaid on the fat jade crown, which is a rare golden yellow color.The whole figure is like a jade white flower raised in a golden vase, amidst the brilliant and bright candles, the east wind takes over, and the youth is highlighted.

He Ercheng was stunned, and Mingran glanced at him: "You don't recognize me? I'm Susu's cousin Mingran."

He Ercheng hurriedly got up and bowed deeply, calling him his cousin.He is the second son of the family member of He's family in Yanzilou among the six surnames in Yunjing.

Ming Ran put one hand on the case, and tapped the surface of the case with her fingers: "What are you doing, Master He?"

He Ercheng smiled apologetically and said, "I just followed my companions to see the excitement, what is my cousin doing here?" His tone was kind and ambiguous after finding someone of the same kind.

Mingran sneered, and suddenly said: "I've taken a fancy to your seat, you go outside the building, you are not allowed to come in again. No, you'd better leave the academy and go home, don't delay for a moment."

He Ersheng was taken aback, and stared at him in disbelief: "Why did you let me go out?"

Mingran didn't look at him, but just stared at the bead curtain on the stage in the hall, and said in a deep voice: "What do you mean, you are a married person, and you come to this place to fool around, can you feel sorry for Susu? I said let you Going is to save face, do you want me to throw you out?"

He Ercheng was shocked and furious when he heard the words. He was spoiled and raised at home until now, and he was a little ignorant, and responded to Ming Ran bluntly: "I'm married... so I can't come? This Wenquelou There are so many married people here, so my cousin kicked them out one by one? Besides, cousin, you are also engaged, so you came too?"

Mingran said: "Although I am engaged, I am not married. If I get married, I will never come to this kind of place again. Besides, I have other important things to do when I come today. Don't be too wordy, just say whether you are going or not? "

He Ercheng laughed angrily and said: "The cousin's words are very interesting. When you come to this kind of place, there are other important things. What important things can you have? It's just that you are just staring at the beautiful little girl like me. It’s so high-sounding. Only your state officials are allowed to set fires, but our people are not allowed to light lamps. Are you still unreasonable?”

Ming Ran had a smile on her lips, but her eyes were cold: "Don't tell me, what can you do."
