The atmosphere of the banquet was quite harmonious.
Although the girls are all courtesans, they have naturally become good at dancing since they have been in the brothel for a long time.
Yang Fan only felt that he felt quite comfortable when he was with them.
However, while the atmosphere in the boat was getting heated, Liu Juncheng hurriedly barged in from the outside, his face full of uneasiness and fear.
"Don't panic! What happened?"
Perhaps Yang Fan's calmness infected Liu Juncheng, and he quickly calmed down, stepped forward and whispered a few words into Yang Fan's ear, and Yang Fan couldn't help but frown.
"What happened?"
Zhang Taiyue’s father, Zhang Wenming, is dead!
Just when Zhang Taiyue was about to come to Jinling, something like this happened at this juncture. Yang Fan would not believe it if there was no connection between it.
"It seems that this banquet cannot continue."
Yang Fan glanced at the girls and sighed.
He took a gulp of the wine in the glass and spilled it away.
He strode forward, Liu Juncheng trailed half a step behind, and their figures disappeared at the door in the blink of an eye.
When the girls saw Yang Fan leaving, they all let out a sigh of relief.
Even though they were sought after by many princes and nobles in Aurous Hill, and no one was easily offended, they still walked on thin ice and could only rely on their hard-earned reputation to survive.
They were afraid that this outsider Yang Fan would not follow the rules and force something to happen to them, and they would not be able to tell them even if they were suffering.
"In this case, everyone is gone, what are you still looking at? Could it be that in such a short period of time, he took away your soul?"
Dong Xiaowan stepped forward and took Liu Rushi's arm, jokingly saying, "I can see it for real. As soon as Judge Yang came in, he couldn't take his eyes off you!"
"That's right. I think it's likely that Officer Yang is attracted to you! If so, you have to seize the opportunity. You may not be able to get out of this quagmire."
Bian Yujing next to him also said.
r> They are called the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai. They are sought after by others, but they are aware of the hardships. Now they seem to be protecting themselves, but it is because the people behind the scenes are taking advantage of their fame to make money.
Once you reach old age and lose your luster, you can no longer maintain this fragile balance, and you will inevitably be forced to do the flesh business!
When that time comes, how lofty they are now, how miserable their fate will be then!
After all, some people like to see women who were once unattainable fall to their knees and satisfy all their dark thoughts.
Therefore, they are actually looking for opportunities each with the intention of getting out of here as soon as possible.
At least Liu Rushi knew that Bian Yujing had already been in contact with the Taoist sect, and was known as "Taoist Yujing". He had recorded the Taoist sect's ultimatum, and had the opportunity to practice Taoism.
Faced with everyone's joking, Liu Rushi spat lightly: "Don't talk nonsense, I was just thinking about the words he just said."
"Oh? What words can make our Liu Confucian think so deeply?"
"Hurry up and tell me, we want to see it too!"
The girls immediately became interested.
Although their attainments in poetry range from deep to shallow, their level of appreciation is quite high. At least ordinary literati cannot fool them.
And Liu Rushi was a master of poetry, so if she could miss her so much, her words must be extraordinary!
Liu Rushi smiled when he saw this.
"I just wanted to tell everyone about it."
As she spoke, she read out the sentence that Yang Fan whispered at that time: "The clear moon is blooming in the cool evening sky. I think of the shadow of Jade Tower and Yao Palace, shining in the sky over Qinhuai."
Liu Rushi's voice was faint, but it seemed to express all the melancholy and the uncertainty of fate in the words.
For a moment, all the girls were stunned.
My mind seemed to be completely immersed in the picture written in these words - the weather was slightly cool, the moon was like water, the palace was still there, but the buildings were empty of people, and the beautiful moonlight could only shine on Qinhuai.
"What a great sky photo Qin Huai!"
"Isn't this what we will be like in the future?"
"Things have changed and people have gone, and the building has become empty. When the time comes, only the shadow of the Qinhuai Tower will be left. How many people will remember us?"
These words seemed to awaken the sadness in the hearts of the women.
For a moment, Dong Xiaowan and others even had red eyes.
Li Xiangjun wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief and asked hurriedly: "This sentence is incomplete. There seems to be a lot missing in the front?"
Liu Rushi spread his hands: "He only read this."
"It's a broken sentence!"
When the girls heard this, they even sighed.
I just feel like I can't vent the sadness in my heart.
Dong Xiaowan held Liu Rushi's arm and said: "No wonder you care so much! This word is a reflection of you and me! But, can he really write such words?"
After all, even though a criminal eunuch from Dongchang is good-looking, he may hold this position and his hands must be stained with blood. How can he write such words that touch everyone's heart?
"Maybe I just saw it somewhere!"
Chen Yuanyuan and others also had some doubts as to whether the author of this phrase was Yang Fan.
Liu Rushi shook his head: "I can only ask him. However, these words are unheard of. Even if someone does it well, how can they adapt to the situation?"
"That's all, don't think about it so much. Sister Liu will naturally pay attention to us anyway!"
"that is!"
The girls were just silent for a moment and had already thought about it.
Liu Rushi's eyes flashed, obviously he had an idea.
At the same time.<
br>
It is still hundreds of miles away from Jinling.
As the bullock cart was advancing, a bird flew towards the bullock cart at an extremely fast speed.
"There's urgent news!"
This flying bird is called Chuanfeng. It is an exotic bird specially raised by the imperial court. Its speed is as fast as lightning. It is used to convey urgent messages and is almost invisible from the outside.
It is said that the hummingbird sank directly into the bullock cart, and even the surrounding guards and cart drivers did not react.
Snapped.
One hand gently grabbed the hummingbird.
Zhang Taiyue glanced at the hummingbird and frowned slightly. The sudden arrival of urgent news at this time always gave him an uneasy premonition.
Sure enough, as he untied the secret message from the bird's feet, his hunch was confirmed.
His father Zhang Wenming passed away.
According to the ancestral system, he needs to go back and observe mourning for his father for twenty-seven months, and then he can resume his life after the expiration of the period!
This is when he is determined to reform. Once such a long time passes, there is only one result waiting for him, that is, the team will be broken up and the reform will fall short!
"Why, at this time?"
At this moment, Zhang Taiyue's aura was so fierce and scary.
This is news relayed from the imperial court, which means that many people already know about it.
"Ruling the world with filial piety" was a major policy of the Ming Dynasty, and it was a red line that could not be crossed. If he didn't write to Ding You immediately, he might be labeled as unfilial.
"You have angered me."
"The more you stop me, the less I will let you go!"
Zhang Taiyue grasped the secret letter fiercely, and the secret letter turned into pieces in his palm, "I intend to reshape the great tomorrow and inherit the destiny of the country, how can I be stopped by monsters like you?"
He knows that he has only one choice at the moment, and that is - to seize love!
