The autumn rain is lingering, and the entire Lin'an City is shrouded in the moist night, looking desolate and lonely. It is already the third watch, and most of the streets and alleys are already empty and dimly lit. But there are always some places that are always lively and lively.

There is a lot of entertainment and entertainment, such as in places like Wanchun Garden.

Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. Originally, on this day every year, Wanchun Garden would organize some lively Mid-Autumn activities for ordinary people. For example, organizing a red boat tour on the West Lake, or holding a Lantern Festival in Wanchun Garden, such as collecting poems on the spot, and Qin Xiqing singing.

Wait. All this is just a gimmick. The real purpose is to make the name of Wanchun Garden more famous and make Qin Xiqing more popular. Of course, it also means to celebrate the festival. After all, the annual Mid-Autumn Festival is the most important thing for the people of the Song Dynasty.

One of the festivals. But this year's Mid-Autumn Festival, a disappointing autumn rain made this Mid-Autumn Festival boring. Without the shining of the bright moon above the head, the entire Mid-Autumn Festival lost too much artistic conception, not to mention it was still raining.

Because of this, Wanchun Garden's originally planned activity of singing on the West Lake cruise ship was cancelled, but they could not do nothing, so they temporarily changed it to a Mid-Autumn Festival singing performance led by Qin Xiqing in Wanchun Garden.

At this moment, the singing party has come to an end. The atmosphere in the luxurious hall on the first floor of Wanchun Garden is warm. Naturally, those present today are all prominent figures. There is no moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival. The most regrettable thing is that these people have no worries about food and clothing.

People who live in the city have less reason to drink and have fun. Therefore, being able to come to Wanchun Garden to listen to music for entertainment is a kind of compensation. Of course, Qin Xiqing from Wanchun Garden has not appeared in public to sing for a long time. Starting from July, Qin Xiqing

She has started her annual summer vacation, and has not appeared in public view. Today's Mid-Autumn Festival is her first public appearance after her summer vacation, so naturally she wants to have a look.

Throughout the night, Qin Xiqing sang ten songs, which was perfect. When Qin Xiqing finished singing the last song, the concert was about to end, but at the same time it also reached the final climax. Because at the end of the concert

During a period of time, some qualified and prominent people can have the opportunity to drink tea and chat with Qin Xiqing in person, express their admiration, and reminisce about the past. Of course, this is also Wanchun Garden’s money-making activity tonight. Because they are qualified to get this opportunity

People must spend a huge amount of money. This is also a time for everyone to show off their wealth and strength. No one wants to give in and be looked down upon at this time.

Not long ago, after a round of secret competition, the ten lucky ones with the highest bounty got the opportunity to go to the front to have close contact with Qin Xiqing. Although this competition was secret, it was very fair. Everyone started before

After getting an exquisite ivory pick board, those who wanted to have close contact with Qin Xiqing wrote the amount of the bounty on the board and wrapped it in red cloth. Finally, the steward of Wanchun Garden collected it and made a ranking.

The top ten guests with the highest bounty will automatically get the opportunity to have tea and chat with Qin Xiqing.

This method is simple and crude, but it is also fair and just. Strength determines everything, and the more money you pay, the more opportunities you have. Those who fail don’t have to worry about it. Others pay more money, so what else is there to say? Bounties and rewards.

Everyone will announce it on the spot, and there is no dispute whether you are among the ten people, because you yourself know whether the amount you wrote is among the tenth lowest. If you are not among the tenth, you will not be asked to take out the money.

Wanchun Garden is not greedy. Although everyone has asked for more places, they only set up ten places each time. This makes everyone feel more and more that Wanchun Garden has a conscience, and at the same time they feel that the places are precious.

The reward for the tenth place today is 3,000 taels of silver. Those with less than 3,000 taels of silver can only watch with envy as others have tea with Qin Xiqing. Talking and chatting with Qin Xiqing at close range can even get

Some small items she presented to Qin

For those who are obsessed with Xiqing, it is simply a supreme honor and praise. Everyone is daydreaming, thinking that Qin Xiqing is extra special to them. Although all this is paid for with money, they are still willing to do so.

The top rewarder was Qin Tan. He gave a reward of 500 taels of gold, one tael of gold and thirteen taels of silver. In other words, his reward amount was 6,500 taels of silver. For ordinary people,

For people, this is money that they cannot earn in ten or a hundred lifetimes, but for people like Qin Tan, it is just a drop in the bucket. The treasures that his grandfather Qin Hui collected in the Getian Pavilion in the back garden are just a drop in the bucket.

Every piece of it is priceless. There are mountains of gold and silver in the secret room. Every year on Grandpa's birthday, the gifts received alone are nearly one hundred thousand taels. When someone comes to visit Grandpa, the gifts they give start from thousands of taels of silver.

It's so simple and easy that it's not even worth mentioning.

Qin Tan sat in the tent at the front of the hall with great contentment. This place was separated from the people in the hall by a red gauze curtain, forming a small separate space. At this moment, the person sitting in front of him was that

The beauty of the peerless beauty Qin Xiqing was like a goddess descending to earth. This made Qin Tan feel a little blushing and even a little flustered.

Qin Tan secretly cursed himself for being worthless. Although he thought about this woman crazy, he was the fifth son of the Qin family, how could he lose his composure in front of a brothel woman? However, every time his eyes fell on the woman in a dark dress.

, Qin Xiqing, who has a beautiful face and a slim figure, can't help but feel ashamed of himself. In addition to these, he also has the urge to rush up to hold this woman in his arms and play with her wantonly.

"Master Qin, please have some tea. Thank you very much for complimenting Xiqing. Xiqing is very grateful." Qin Xiqing elegantly brewed a cup of tea and placed it in front of Qin Tan, saying in a sweet voice.

"Hahaha, it should be, it should be. Miss Xiqing just didn't give me a chance, otherwise I would have taken more care of Miss Xiqing. A fairy-like figure like Miss Xiqing shouldn't be so public.

, who work hard to make a living." Qin Tan chuckled.

Qin Xiqing said lightly: "Master Qin is joking, Xiqing is just an ordinary woman, but she can't be called a god, so she doesn't have to blaspheme the gods. Xiqing doesn't feel hard at all, because she has such a general love for Xiqing as Master Qin."

Xiqing feels very lucky. If I can please you all with my modest skills, Xiqing will be satisfied."

Qin Tan chuckled and said: "What you said is right. It's good if you feel happy. But your skills are not meager, they are miraculous. I love listening to your music the most. To be honest,

I also know a little about music, and I really hope to have a private discussion with Miss Xiqing. Unfortunately, you have been invited so many times, but you are unwilling to go to the appointment. Alas, I, Qin Tan, don’t have enough face. In the eyes of Miss Xiqing,

I’m afraid I’m nothing, right?”

Qin Xiqing smiled and said: "Young Master, how can you belittle yourself? He is a talented person and has a prominent family background. Who dares to say that the Young Master is nothing? You are joking. Xi Qing just never goes out to private gatherings. It is not disrespectful to the Young Master. This is what Xi Qing has given you."

I have set the rules myself, please forgive me, sir."

Qin Tan smiled and said: "Of course I understand, I am not angry with the girl at all. However, I still want to have a merciless invitation. Next month is my grandmother's sixtieth birthday, and I want to invite Miss Xiqing.

Is it okay to come to my house to sing music to celebrate my birthday? My grandmother likes to listen to music the most, and this is not a church party. This is a birthday celebration for an old man. It is both my filial piety and merit. Miss Xiqing will not refuse someone who wants to spend her whole life.

Is it the wish of a filial person?"

Qin Xiqing frowned and remained silent, not knowing how to refuse for a while. Qin Tan pestered her many times, and she refused his invitation many times, which already made him a little angry. Although he didn't

I'm afraid of him, but he is Qin Hui's grandson after all. If I really want to offend him, it will be detrimental to both public and private interests. Therefore, I want to refuse in my heart, but I need to find a good excuse.

Just as Qin Xiqing was thinking deeply, he suddenly heard someone outside the tent shouting in a low voice and hastily: "Fifth Young Master, Fifth Young Master, come out quickly, I have something important to report."

Qin Tan frowned and shouted: "What can't we talk about later? But you came to disturb my conversation with Miss Qin."

The man said hurriedly: "I can't wait, sir, it's something over there in Sanyuanfang. Something big has happened."

Qin Tan was stunned when he heard this and frowned. Qin Xiqing was making tea at the side. When she heard the word Sanyuanfang, she trembled slightly and turned her head sideways and pricked up her ears.

Qin Tan stood up, cupped his hands towards Qin Xiqing and said, "Wait a moment, miss. I have some personal matters to deal with. I'll come back and have tea with you later."

Qin Xiqing nodded and said, "Young master, do whatever you want."

Qin Tan stood up and walked to the side of the tent, lifted it up and walked out. Qin Xiqing quickly got up, walked to the side of the tent and listened.

"What happened?" came Qin Tan's low and angry voice.

"Sir, there was a mistake at Sanyuanfang. Zhang Daquan's man who went to do something was ambushed by the man named Fang. The man named Fang was well prepared and fell into the trap as soon as they entered. That man named Fang is really good. He went there.

It is said that nine of ten people were killed by him."

"What? Impossible." Qin Tan screamed, but immediately realized not to shout loudly, so he lowered his voice and shouted: "He alone? Killed nine of Zhang Daquan and the others? Are you crazy?"

"Fifth Young Master, it's not that the villain is crazy. It was said by Zheng Laoba who escaped. He is at the gate of Wanchun Garden. He saw the murderer Fang Zian with his own eyes. He escaped by chance and came back to report the news. If you don't believe it, you

Ask him in person. He seems to be scared out of his wits. He said that Fang Zian is not a human, but a demon. Killing people is like chopping melons and vegetables. Zhang Daquan and the others can't do a single move in front of him."

Qin Tan was stunned for a long time and whispered: "It's a group of idiots. Ten people can't deal with one of them. Idiot, idiot. Is this guy so cruel? How dare he kill like this? How dare he be so unscrupulous? Let's go and call someone to take a look. We can't let him."

Destroy the body and eliminate traces. If this is true, he cannot escape the crime of murder."

"Okay, I will go and gather my brothers now."

Walking away in a hurry, Qin Xiqing returned to her seat. Qin Tan opened the curtain and walked in with a livid face. Qin Xiqing said: "Master Qin, please have some tea. This was brewed just now. It is just right for hot and cold."

Qin Tan cupped his hands and said, "Let's have tea another day, Miss Qin, I still have some important things to do, so I can only say goodbye today."

Qin Xiqing said: "Ah, are you leaving now? The young master still has time to burn a stick of incense."

Qin Tan said: "There is no way, the matter is urgent, and I don't want to leave the girl. I'm leaving."

"That's all right. Master, go slowly. Xiqing thanks you for supporting me." Qin Xiqing stood up and saluted.

Qin Tan cupped his hands, turned around, lifted up his tent and walked away quickly.

Qin Xiqing sat down slowly, her face was pale, her heart was beating hard, and her fingers were shaking violently.

Fang Zian...he was so bold, he actually...actually killed someone. What should I do? What should I do? This man is too impulsive. Now he is in trouble. He...he is alone

Man versus ten people, kill nine? Oh my God, he killed nine people, this is too cruel. What should I do? What should I do? Why hasn't Ling'er come back yet? Everyone else has got the news, I'm keeping her here

Sanyuanfang is waiting, why hasn't she come to report the news?
