Watching Luo Bao disappear into the night, Tan Qianyang looked at the portrait in his hand.
In the portrait, a beautiful face is lifelike.
Even if Tan Qianyang knew this was a man.
However, this face still made him unable to help but have some fantasies.
"Stop it!"
Tan Qianyang took a deep breath.
Can't watch it anymore.
Luo Bao looks so evil.
How can a man look like this?
It can be called a disaster level.
No wonder Luo Bao wears so many human skin masks on his face and almost never shows his true face.
If this was shown to others in its true colors, I'm afraid there would be endless trouble wherever he went.
With this portrait, Tan Qianyang is not afraid of Luo Bao's disobedience.
The reason why Luo Bao was asked to investigate the child theft was actually considered by Tan Qianyang.
The Tan family is indeed very powerful in Anyang County.
However, the person who stole the child was most likely the three murderers on the wanted notice that Tan Qianyang had seen.
Faced with such extremely vicious people, her mother, Tan Li, would never agree to Tan Qianyang's investigation.
If Tan Li does not agree, Tan Qianyang will not be able to mobilize the Tan family's manpower.
In this way, he has to investigate on his own, and he doesn't know whether it will be the Year of the Monkey or the Horse.
It's even possible to get nothing.
But Luo Bao is different.
Luo Bao is a flying thief who hides in the dark, and his movement speed is extremely high.
It shouldn't be difficult to find the three murderers.
"It seems that we still have to train our own team."
"After all, the people in Tan Mansion are not something I can easily mobilize."
An idea came to Tan Qianyang's mind.
If something like this happens again in the future, what will he do if Luo Bao is not here?
There wasn't even anyone to run errands.
However, building your own team and gaining strength does not happen overnight. Take your time, Tan Qianyang is not in a hurry.
...
In the blink of an eye, three days passed.
Luo Bao seemed to have disappeared from the world, with no news at all.
On this day, Chen Yu actually came.
"Brother Yang."
When Chen Yu arrived, he looked sad and seemed to have something on his mind.
Tan Qianyang looked Chen Yu up and down.
The opponent's steps were sloppy, his eyes were dark, his face was a little pale, and he looked like he had been overworked.
Tan Qianyang knew that this was kidney deficiency!
During this period of time, Chen Yu has been nesting in the nightingale's flower boat, and it would be strange not to be squeezed dry.
"Brother Chen, have you been feeling refreshed recently?"
"I heard that you have booked Nightingale's flower boat. You are really happy to miss Shu! Aren't you afraid that Mr. Chen will come back and break your legs?"
Tan Qianyang said with a smile.
Chen Yu's face was full of bitterness, and he sighed and sighed: "Brother Yang, please stop making fun of me."
"This is a five hundred tael silver note, the money I borrowed from you before."
Chen Yu returned the silver note to Tan Qianyang.
Five hundred taels of silver was nothing, and neither Chen Yu nor Tan Qianyang cared about it.
Tan Qianyang looked at Chen Yu's still frowning face, so he put away his smile and said in a deep voice: "Brother Chen, what's the matter with you? You have a frowning face. Tell me, maybe I can help you find a solution."
Chen Yu smiled bitterly and said, "What can you do?"
"It's my old man who went to Fucheng and made a marriage arrangement for me."
"It is said that she is the daughter of a big family in Fucheng. The other party only got engaged to me because of my brother's face."
Tan Qianyang nodded.
Heirlooms of Chen's poetry and calligraphy.
Although Chen Yu is incompetent, Chen Yu has a good big brother.
Chen Yu's eldest brother is called Chen Qi. He was originally tested by Hwarang in the palace, and was chosen by the prime minister of the dynasty, so he married his daughter to Chen Qi.
Although Chen Qi was later affected by the deposing of the prime minister, his official career was not smooth.
But that was because compared to the entire imperial court, Chen Qi was not a big shot.
But in the entire Anyang County or Fucheng, he is definitely a big shot.
For Chen Qi's sake, some wealthy families in the city are still willing to marry the Chen family.
"This is a great thing."
Tan Qianyang said.
"Good thing?"
Chen Yu pouted and said, "If we really get married, can I still be as free and happy as before?"
"Hey, Brother Yang, listen to my advice. Don't get married early. If you can, delay it."
"Otherwise, once you get married, your life will be boring..."
Seeing Chen Yu's dejected look, Tan Qianyang felt helpless.
Chen Yu is actually distressed because he can no longer be as carefree and happy as before after getting married.
It seems reasonable?
After all, for a playboy, it is very uncomfortable to be restrained.
"Brother Chen, you are in a bad mood today."
"Let's do this. I'll accompany you to Huayu Tower to see if there are any new girls?"
"Anyway, I haven't been there for a while. I'm treating you!"
Tan Qianyang thought about it and said to Chen Yu.
Chen Yu's eyes lit up, and then he said with a smile: "Hey, it's rare that Brother Yang has elegance."
"Okay, then I'd rather be respectful than obey."
"I heard that Huayu Downstairs has spent a lot of money recently and recruited a group of musical girls and dancers from other places. They are very popular among the scholars."
"How about we go and have a look too?"
Tan Qianyang really didn't know what had happened to Huayulou.
Chen Yu is the most knowledgeable in this regard.
"Okay, let's go."
So, Tan Qianyang asked Da Zhuang to make some preparations.
Since it was still afternoon, it was a bit hot.
The two of them did not walk, but directly took a carriage and drove towards Huayu Tower.
Soon, the carriage stopped in front of Huayu Tower.
The two got out of the car.
I saw that there were many carriages outside Huayu Building, almost blocking the door.
At this time, the old bustard also saw Chen Yu and Tan Qianyang, and immediately greeted them.
After all, both of them are the "top young men" in Anyang County. How dare she neglect them?
"Oh, Mr. Chen and Mr. Tan, these two distinguished guests are here."
"Recently, we at Huayulou spent a lot of money to recruit a group of musical and dancer girls. Tsk tsk, with their looks and postures, it's even rarer that they are all proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting."
"There's just one thing. These maidens and dancers are all servants of the Qing Dynasty, so please ask the two young masters to take care of them."
The so-called "Qinghuanren" are actually people who sell their art but not their body.
The old bustard wanted Tan Qianyang and Chen Yu not to do anything. If they really need a girl, they can find any girl from Huayulou.
But not those dancing girls.
Chen Yu was a little disappointed, but still said impatiently: "As per the old rules, let's go to the private room."
"Brother Yang likes to listen to music. Let's find the most skilled among the group of female musicians and dancers. There are also two backup dancers. Go and arrange it."
The old bustard said with a smile on his face: "Okay, I'll make arrangements right away. You two young masters, please go to the private room and wait for a while."
Tan Qianyang and Chen Yu immediately walked into Huayu Tower.
As a result, the hall of Huayu Tower was actually overcrowded.
There is a stand above the hall.
It is generally a place used to perform music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
As a result, there were several women above, playing the piano and dancing.
There were dozens or hundreds of people below, all standing and cheering in the hall, and they looked enthusiastic.
"Do you want to be so exaggerated?"
"When did Huayulou's business get so good?"
"The person playing the piano and dancing above is Huayulou's new dancer and dancer?"
Chen Yu opened his mouth wide.
The same goes for Tan Qianyang.
The two of them are regular customers of Huayulou, so they naturally know that the business of Huayulou has never been so good before.
Although these dancing girls are from the Qing Dynasty, they are very good-looking, and if they do some posing and posing for a while, they will make everyone feel hot, so why not go to the girls from Huayulou to get rid of the heat?
In this way, Huayulou's business will be boosted invisibly.
No wonder the Huayulou Madam, who had never trained any courtesans in the past, is now willing to cooperate with musicians and dancers.
I'm afraid it's because I saw the huge benefits that I willingly cooperated.
Chen Yu watched the performance of the Musical Girl and Dancer for a while. He didn't understand the music or dance, but he understood women.
Seeing these women, all of them have excellent looks and sexy figures, even Chen Yu couldn't help but marveled: "Each one of these women has the appearance to be an oiran."
"She's just a musician or a dancer?"
"Where do these people come from? Could it be the capital city?"
Chen Yu looked at those graceful dancers and felt a little hot in her heart.
"Okay, let's go to the private room first. There are too many people here."
Tan Qianyang shook his head and came to the private room with Chen Yu.
The fine wine and delicious food in the private room have already been prepared.
Especially the hot and sour chicken feet, Tan Qianyang's favorite, is a big plate full.
Seeing Chen Yu still looking out the window of the private room.
Tan Qianyang smiled and said: "Brother Chen, don't be so impatient. Sit down and have something to eat first. People will arrive in a while. Then you can enjoy it up close."
"Right."
Chen Yu then sat down and had a few drinks with Tan Qianyang.
"Squeak".
Not long after, the door was pushed open.
Three veiled women pushed open the door and entered.
