The most powerful minister in the world

Chapter 16 Visiting Rouge Tower at Night

Liu Ningmei went back in the carriage as soon as it got dark. Before leaving, she raised the curtains of the carriage and threatened Jingxi that she must go to the temple fair tomorrow morning, otherwise she would make him look good.

When Jingfu called for dinner in the evening, Jingxi sat down on the dining table, grabbed Jingchuan's rice bowl and started eating.

Jingchuan seemed to be used to it, so he filled two more bowls, eating one bowl for himself and placing the other bowl in front of Jingxi.

Jing Lixiao coughed twice and said, "Your Majesty's imperial edict has arrived. I saw the Liu family girl talking to you, so I said you were sick and took it for you."

"Oh."

"I have transferred all the military affairs of the ninth battalion to Jingchuan. You can go to the Imperial College to study honestly and don't cause any more trouble for me."

"Oh."

"And...forget it, let's eat."

"Oh."

Jingchuan looked at Jingxi in surprise, why didn't this guy lift the table? Jingxi was in a good mood after eating the rice brought by Liu Ningmei, so naturally she would not argue with Jing Lixiao. Besides, it would be useless to argue.

"Brother Jingxi, haven't you eaten yet? Why are you still so hungry?" Mu Jinyi looked at Jingxi grabbing the rice with big eyes and asked curiously. Of course she knew that Jingxi could eat. But I have never seen him eat so much.

"He, since he was trapped in the isolated city for more than seventy days, his appetite has increased sharply." Jing Lixiao murmured while sipping the wine in his glass.

"Oh~ That's it. Brother Jingxi is going to take a beating. It's really hard on you."

"It's such a hard work. If he hadn't been greedy for success and had to defend an insignificant abandoned city, who could trap him would be asking for trouble."

Mu Jin bit her chopsticks and saw Jing Xi turned away in displeasure, so she had no choice but to grab a chicken drumstick for Jing Lixiao and said with a smile, "Daddy will eat it too."

Jing Lixiao hummed and took the chicken leg, and glanced at Jing Xi angrily. Jingchuan then said, "Are you going to the temple fair tomorrow?"

Jingxi spat out the bones in his mouth and replied, "We have an appointment. Ask the little girl to accompany you."

"Okay, brother Jingchuan, I will accompany you. Where is dad?"

Jing Lixiao raised his eyelids, feeling a little uninterested, but he couldn't brush off the little girl's enthusiasm and could only smile and said: "Dad is busy socializing recently, can we go when he has some free time?"

"Okay, the temple fair will be held for three days, don't be in a hurry."

"I'm full." Jing Xi wiped his mouth, put down the bowl and chopsticks, and ran away. When he walked to the door, he heard Jing Lixiao say from behind: "Liu Juzheng came to see me today, you... pay attention Some."

Jingxi said, "Don't worry about it." Then he left the west courtyard, walked across the lake bridge and returned to his room in the east courtyard. As soon as he closed the door and before lighting the candle, he heard snoring all over the room.

Jingxi held the candlestick and took a picture of it on the bed. His slightly vulgar face looked even more unbeatable in the dim light.

Jingxi patted his face.

"Well~ don't make trouble, let me sleep some more."

Jingxi smiled and tilted the candlestick, and the candle oil dripped on the man's face. At that moment, the man jumped up and cursed: "Who, who the fuck is messing with my dream?"

"Hey~ Mr. Guo, when did you start calling yourself young master in front of me?"

Guo Zitong rubbed his eyes, and when he saw it was Jing Xi, he stepped forward to fight him. Unexpectedly, he tripped over his own boots and fell to his knees in front of Jing Xi.

"Tsk, tsk, Mr. Guo, it's still some time before the Chinese New Year. If you kowtow so loudly to me right now, your father and I don't have any red envelopes to give you as a New Year blessing."

"Fuck you, Jingxi, I'm going to fuck your second uncle, you almost cheated me to death!"

"how do I say this?"

"I'm talking about your brother-in-law, help me up first!"

Jingxi held back his laughter and helped him up. Guo Zitong didn't forget to curse while putting on his shoes.

"Hey, hey, it's almost done. Aren't you doing well now? I let you pretend to be me in the house, and you exposed yourself. Who can I rely on?"

The lights in the room were all lit, and it was as bright as day. Guo Zitong, wearing a white placket, pointed at Jingxi and cursed with disgust on his face: "You heartless person, I risked beheading to help you, you Just treat me like this?"

Jingxi immediately became happy when he saw his aggrieved and angry look. He walked over and patted his back and said, "Okay, okay, I owe you this. You can repay it how you want. I'm treating you to a drink." , or accompany you to visit the brothel?"

"It's not that easy for you to pay it off."

"Then what do you mean?"

Guo Zitong rubbed his chin and thought for a while. He really couldn't think of anything, so he gave up and pulled Jingxi out. Jingxi didn't know why and asked, "What are you doing?"

"I haven't thought of it yet. I'll wait until I think of it later. Come with me to Rouge House for a drink tonight. It's been a long time since we've sat together."

Jing Xi was already feeling bored, so he naturally agreed. He took a cloak and went out with Guo Zitong. This guy even prepared a carriage, which was really considerate.

Rouge House, as its name suggests, has many beauties in rouge and pink. Hey, don’t fall into the cliché and think of this building as a brothel that sells meat for fun. The beauties here are not rouge fans. They are all extremely elegant and proficient in literature and calligraphy. , the little songs sung by the small mouth are as sweet to your heart as eating honey, and the poems, books, music and paintings are also at your fingertips.

Southerners are not ashamed to enter such places, but regard it as a kind of romantic affair.

There are only five such elegant places in the capital, and Rouge Tower is the first because there are four oirans and a little enchantress inside.

You can't see these five people on weekdays. Only when people are in a good mood, they come out to take a look. If they like it, they are invited into the exclusive private room to have a few drinks and sing a few words.

Rouge Tower was built along the river. It was built less than two years ago. The entire pavilion is brightly lit at night, and it looks like an exquisite pagoda from a distance. It is very dazzling. During the day, many literati and poets go boating, carrying three or five friends and the girl they like. Eat a few glasses of wine and drink a few words, life will be happy.

"Damn it, I spent so much money on you, and I'm going to smack you in the face every time I touch you. I'm so spoiled by you!" A young man slapped the little fairy playing the piano in the lobby on the first floor. The noise instantly attracted everyone. human gaze.

The little fairy covered her slightly swollen face, which was already full of tears. She bit her thin lips lightly and was about to leave, but she was grabbed by the drunken young man, hugging her and chewing her.

Naturally, the girls here are not prostitutes, but if they are in love, regardless of whether they are piled up with money or something else, then that is a different matter.

Many little fairies couldn't stand it, so they pushed their sweethearts and said, "You go and take care of it, my sister Duoduo is weak and can't stand the torture."

"As you can see, that's the nephew of the King of Southern Hunan. No matter what, I'll probably get a slap on the face if I go here."

The little fairy slapped her lover and said, "You have no future."

"Tch~ You'll find out tonight if he has any future or not?"

The troubled nephew of the King of Southern Hunan, named Li Zhenheng, relied on his backing to have a very bad reputation in the capital.

"I have to deal with you tonight. You'd better obey me honestly, otherwise I will scratch your face and ruin your job!"

The entangled girl Duoduo bit him hard and then broke free, but she was still weak after all. Li Zhenheng chased her, kicked her in the stomach and flew out, falling straight to the door.

At this moment, a person flew over and hugged her to prevent Miss Duoduo from getting hurt.

The people in the lobby on the first floor and upstairs who were leaning on the railing to watch the excitement all focused their attention on the person who came to save them, and they all took a deep breath.
