Madam, protect me!

Chapter 144: Humble Phoenix

The next day.

Early in the morning.

In the Ministry of Justice, Li Anning walked into the yamen and saw a figure sitting on a chair. He was surprised and asked, "Why are you free to come here today?"

In fact, Li Nuo originally had no intention of coming here.

But early in the morning, Fenghuang came to teach his mother to play the piano.

After all, Li Nuo was not as cruel as Fenghuang.

It is better to be in a daze in the Ministry of Justice than to suffer at home.

Li Anning handed over the bun in his hand and asked, "Have you had breakfast?"

Li Nuo came out in a hurry and really didn't have breakfast.

He didn't hesitate and took a bun from Li Anning.

Li Anning took a bite of the bun and asked, "By the way, how are you and Fenghuang?"

Li Nuo said, "Nothing."

He glanced at Li Anning and asked, "Why do you care so much about Fenghuang?"

Li Anning lowered her head and pretended to be nonchalant and said, "Is it okay to ask out of curiosity?"

In fact, on the way to the Ministry of Justice today, she accidentally heard some news.

Regarding the rumors about him and Fenghuang that were spread a few days ago, Fenghuang actually took the initiative to refute them.

Fenghuang knew very well what she was thinking.

She actually took the initiative to refute the rumors. Did she really misunderstand it before?

At this time, there were many people who had the same doubts as Li Anning.

Yuyin Pavilion was just a small music house, far from being comparable to giants like Tianyin Courtyard and Lelai Tower. The reason why it was able to suppress these long-established music houses and brothels in terms of fame in the past few months was entirely because of the son of the Dali Temple.

Unexpectedly, after Yuyin Pavilion became the top music house in Chang'an, she immediately cut off her relationship with that big shot.

At first, there were rumors that she had been abandoned by that man because he was tired of playing with her and wanted to find another high branch for herself.

But soon, someone confirmed that this Fenghuang girl was still a virgin.

It is not difficult to judge this point. A high-level warrior can judge whether a person is still a Yuanyang or Yuanyin body based on the breath.

Now, those rumors have really been shattered.

A certain circle in Chang'an also began to get agitated.

They didn't dare to have any thoughts about the woman of the son of the Dali Temple.

Since they were not in that kind of relationship, who could finally win the beauty would depend on their own ability.

Although Chang'an had just selected the top ten courtesans.

But in people's minds, the top one was someone else.

Fenghuang was originally a top beauty.

A top beauty with a pure body could arouse men's desire to conquer.

Yuyin Pavilion was famous because of the son of the Dali Temple.

But after breaking off the relationship with that person, Yuyin Pavilion became even more famous.

For the upper-class dignitaries and officials in Chang'an, they would not care about the romantic affairs of these brothels.

But in the dust circle of Chang'an, the impact of this incident was really not small.

Somewhere in a simple and quiet garden.

Elegant small buildings are located in the garden, and from time to time there are graceful music coming from the small buildings.

This is one of the largest music halls in Chang'an, Lelai Tower.

Lelailou sounds like a music house, but it is actually a large entertainment center that integrates brothels, music houses, dance halls, and restaurants. Its main customers are the dignitaries of Chang'an.

The reason why it is named Lefang is because "music" is one of the six arts. Some high-end brothels are unwilling to take vulgar names such as Baihualou and Kuaihuolou.

On the second floor of a small building in Lelailou, a middle-aged woman frowned and asked, "Really?"

A young servant in green stood below and bowed and said, "It's true. The news was spread by Yuyin Pavilion. That Fenghuang is not in that kind of relationship with the son of the Dali Temple. He hasn't been to Yuyin Pavilion for more than a month..."

The middle-aged woman finally realized something when she heard it. Anger appeared on her face. She said angrily, "We were all deceived by that bitch. I'm afraid all this was a play she played from beginning to end!"

The middle-aged woman was itchy with hatred.

If Yuyin Pavilion hadn't interfered, Lelai Building should have had two more vacancies for the top courtesans this year.

They spent a lot of effort, asking people to write poems and spending money to promote the two top courtesans, but they were pushed down by the two people from Yuyin Pavilion.

If they can't become top courtesans, all the resources spent on them will be wasted.

The wasted money and energy are secondary.

More importantly, she has found a place for the two top courtesans.

These talented courtesans, if they have the title of top courtesan, are very popular in the circles of small nobles. Even if they are just concubines, they can bring considerable benefits to Lelai Building in the future.

The top courtesans failed to be selected, and the two were also abandoned, and one of her expectations was dashed.

Not only that, many of Lelai Building's regular customers were also snatched away by Yuyin Pavilion.

She had long disliked Yuyin Pavilion, especially during this period.

Fifty taels of silver for a single meeting, is her face covered in gold? The most famous girl in Lelai Tower is only this price.

If it weren't for the fear of the man behind her, Yuyin Pavilion would have been removed from Chang'an long ago.

In fact, if you look at it seriously, her background is not bad. Who can achieve such a scale in Chang'an without a few big men behind him?

But she still holds back her anger based on the principle of less trouble is worse than more trouble.

If Yuyin Pavilion had always been taking advantage of the power of others before, she wouldn't mind settling all the old and new accounts with her.

However, to be cautious, she still had to do some research first to see if she was really a virgin.

Other things can be faked, but this is impossible.

Song Mansion.

Li Nuo was sitting in the yard and heard the sound of the piano coming from the room...

Let’s call it the sound of the piano.

He looked down and saw goosebumps on his arms.

After a while, Phoenix walked out of the room with a haggard look.

Li Nuo felt uncomfortable even though he was so far away, let alone her being so close.

Li Nuo couldn't help but feel a pity for her, poured a cup of tea and handed it to her, saying, "Drink a cup of water."

Fenghuang took the tea cup with both hands. The cold tea actually made her feel happy after drinking it.

This was the first time he offered her tea.

She was indeed a little thirsty. After drinking the cup of tea, she handed the cup back and said, "Thank you..."

Li Nuo took the empty cup and Phoenix noticed a stain on his sleeve. He was stunned for a moment and said, "Master, your clothes are dirty. Take them off and let me wash them for you..."

What Li Nuo had on his sleeve was actually tea.

Just as he picked up the tea cup, the sound of his wife's piano suddenly came from the room.

He was so frightened that his hands shook and the tea spilled onto his sleeves.

Li Nuo waved his hand and said, "No, the maid at home can wash it."

Fenghuang's hand had already grabbed his sleeve and said: "This is tea stain. It needs to be washed as soon as possible, otherwise it won't be clean. Master, I'd better take it off. I'll wash it quickly..."

While she was talking, Li Nuo's coat had been forcibly taken off by her.

Before Li Nuo could refuse, she pushed Li Nuo into the house and said, "Master, please go in and change your clothes. It's cold, don't catch a cold..."

It was indeed cold to stay in the yard without taking off clothes. Li Nuo returned to the room and found his wife playing the piano according to the score, but none of the words she played was on the score.

He changed into another piece of clothing, and when he walked outside, he saw that the piece of clothing was soaked in the basin, and Fenghuang was squatting on the ground, vigorously rubbing the stain on his sleeve.

The water in winter is so cold that even the maids of the Song Dynasty would mix it with hot water when washing clothes.

Her hands were red from the cold, and every time she rubbed them a few times, she would bring them to her mouth to take a breath of hot air.

Seeing this scene, Li Nuo felt that he was really guilty.

The master of Yuyin Pavilion, who was sought after by thousands of people in Chang'an and earned hundreds of taels of silver every minute, had to endure not only tremendous mental torture but also physical torture when he arrived at the Song Mansion.

Li Nuo stepped forward, grabbed her arm, pulled her up, and said, "Forget it, don't wash it..."

Fenghuang rubbed her slender, white, but red hands from the cold, tears welling up in her eyes. She looked at him pitifully and whispered, "Then can you forgive me?"

At this moment, Li Nuo felt an unprecedented feeling in his heart.

When the lady is angry, he has to coax her.

Li Anning was angry, and he had to find a way to make her happy.

He has always been the one who coaxes others. I never thought that the feeling of being coaxed by others would be so good...

After coming back to his senses, he waved his hand and said in a lighter tone: "It won't happen again..."

Phoenix finally laughed, wiped his tears and said, "Thank you, Master!"

When she walked out of the Song Mansion, a slight smile appeared on her lips.

Children's tempers are so easy to coax...

It would be interesting to have such a husband.

I don’t know what Miss Song is dissatisfied with. The two of them are still innocent until now. Isn’t she really worried that he will be snatched away by others...
