The Eighteen Ghost Riders were also summoned by Feng Qingzhuang. They all sat on their horses in a heroic manner, waiting beside the carriage.
I saw Mo Yue whip up the horsewhip in her hand, and the carriage started running smoothly, heading towards the city gate.
On the wall of the palace, the cold wind was strong. Ye Junlin was dressed in bright yellow, with ink hair flying, and his clothes flying. He watched the carriage gradually go away, until he couldn't see it, his eyes still stayed at the place where the carriage disappeared, reluctant to move away.
"Your Majesty, the princess's carriage has gone far away. The wind is strong on the city wall. You must take care of your dragon body and let me help you get down." Xiao Shunzi behind him advised with concern.
"Go down." Ye Junlin's eyes showed a trace of sadness of parting.
Ye Junlin walked down the wall of the palace, Xiao Shunzi followed respectfully, and the master and servant walked towards the royal study room.
See again the empty branches with all the fallen flowers, the first blooming red plum blossoms stand proud of the snow and frost, Ling Han blooms alone
In the sky, heavy snow was flying, falling to the ground like cotton wool, and the entire earth was covered in silver.
The weather was bad, so Feng Qingzhuang and her party stopped and went, and finally arrived at Liancheng two months later.
Liancheng is a city near the sea. The shipbuilding industry is developed. At this time, there is heavy snowfall in the city, and the snowflakes in the sky are flying in the biting cold wind.
"The weather is bad, Zhuang'er. Why don't we stay in the city for one night today and wait until tomorrow to go to the shipyard on the seaside to look for Du Jiugong?"
Lifting the curtain of the carriage and looking at the heavy snow falling in the sky, Wu Jingyu frowned slightly and suggested:
Hearing this, Feng Qingzhuang nodded.
"Mo Yue, go to Liancheng Inn, the largest inn in the city," Wu Jingyu shouted towards the outside of the carriage.
"Yes, young master" Mo Yue raised his whip and rushed the carriage to Liancheng Inn
After asking for two separate courtyards, the group went down to the luxurious Liancheng Inn.
It was evening at this time, and the lobby of Liancheng Inn was bustling with activity. All the dining guests were in high spirits, and they were all discussing the same thing.
"Brother, in half an hour it will be time for the ice dancers from Yinghonglou to perform ice dancing. Do you want to go and watch?" said a man in a cotton robe.
"I really want to go, but the tigress at home has been tight lately. Brother, I don't have any money in my pocket." The man at the same table, also wearing a cotton robe, picked up a peanut and threw it into his mouth, saying
"Besides rushing along this way, I'm going to go to Yinghong Tower later to see the excitement."
Feng Qingzhuang and other people who were also sitting in the lobby eating also heard the conversation between the two. There was a hint of interest in her eyes and she opened her lips and said
"No, I object when I hear the name of Yinghong Building. It must be a brothel or something like that. You are a woman, how can you go to a place like that?" Wu Jingyu's face darkened and he firmly disagreed.
"So what if I object to invalid women? Which law stipulates that women cannot visit brothels? I just want to visit Yinghong Building today." Feng Qingzhuang objected directly and said stubbornly
Sighing helplessly, Wu Jingyu frowned and said: "If you really want to go, you promise me that you must dress up in men's clothing before you go. Otherwise, with your stunning beauty, the guests inside will definitely stare at you with leering eyes.
with you"
"If you don't tell me, I will do the same. Let's eat quickly. After we finish eating, hurry over and grab a good seat."
This whole journey has been really boring, Feng Qingzhuang urged.
After finishing their meal quickly, the four of them went back to the room to tidy up, and then headed towards Yinghong Building while the Eighteen Ghost Riders stayed in the room.
Yinghonglou is the largest brothel in Liancheng. It has an open-air form and unique design.
There is a small square pool in the middle. It is now the severe winter, and the pool is covered with a thick layer of ice. It is surrounded by private rooms separated one by one. The charge for each private room is quite high.
"Hey, these four handsome young men look very handsome. It must be their first time coming to our Yinghong Mansion."
Feng Qingzhuang and the others had just walked outside the Yinghong Building when a woman with still charming charm came over. She flicked the handkerchief in her hand and the thick fragrance of powder wafted into their noses. The four of them frowned.
"We are here to watch the ice dancers dance. Give us a private room with the best view." Feng Qingzhuang thought and pulled out a banknote out of thin air in her hand. She waved it in front of the madam and said in a low voice.
Looking at the one hundred taels of silver note, the madam's eyes flashed, she reached out to take the banknote and quickly put it into her sleeve, smiling brightly.
"Four gentlemen, don't worry. Mom, I promise to find you a private room with the best view."
After a pause, the madam shouted towards the inside.
"Cuihong, take these four young masters to the chrysanthemum room"
After a while, a woman wearing peach red and willow green came over with her slender waist and took Feng Qingzhuang and the other four to the chrysanthemum room.
Gradually, there were more and more guests, and all the private rooms in Yinghong Building were full. After the madam finished speaking, the music started playing.
I saw a woman with a face covered in white gauze and elegant white clothes, wearing shoes with pulleys on her feet, sliding into the frozen pool in the middle
"Why does this woman look familiar to me?"
Looking at the woman dancing on the stage, Feng Qingzhuang frowned, and there was a trace of doubt in her eyes.
"Her figure does look a bit familiar, but have you noticed that the dancing woman's eyes are lifeless, like a soulless puppet with a controlled mind? Although the dance is beautiful, it is lifeless." Mei Yizhu's face
With an elegant and bamboo-like smile, after observing for a moment, he whispered quietly
"That's true. It seems like there's something wrong with Yinghong Mansion?" Wu Jingyu's narrow and handsome eyebrows were slightly frowned and he asked.
"Let's put aside the issue of Yinghong Mansion for now. What I'm most interested in right now is the woman dancing on ice. She really feels very familiar."
Feng Qingzhuang's eyes as black as paint stared at the woman dancing gracefully on the stage, the doubts in her eyes getting deeper and deeper.
I saw her inner strength rising, concentrating her hands, and sweeping out a palm. The white veil on the face of the woman dancing on the pool was swept away by the wind of the palm in an instant.
An elegant and charming face was exposed in front of everyone. She was dressed in white and looked like snow lotuses that had just opened on the ice pond. Although her eyes were dull, they still did not detract from her beauty.
"Oh my god, this is the ice dancer girl. She is so beautiful!"
The guests in Yinghong Building stared at the beauty on the pool. In addition to admiration, there was also a hint of lust in their eyes.
"I wonder if the ice dancing girl sells her body?" Another guest said more directly with his eyes anxiously focused on the person dancing on the pool.
In the private room where Feng Qingzhuang and the others were in the Chrysanthemum Room, the four of them all had surprised looks in their eyes.
"How could it be her? She actually fell into the world of prostitution?" Feng Qingzhuang said with shock in her eyes.
