Ji Heng went all the way to Xia Jin's residence, and the concierge was very happy when he saw that he was here, "Master Ji is here?"

Ji Heng didn't say much, "Is Qilang here?"

The concierge didn't expect him to ask this question right away, so he couldn't help being startled, and quickly said, "No, Mr. Xu hasn't been here."

Ji Heng looked at him, but he was a little suspicious, so he said, "Oh. Then I'll go in and talk to your young master. It's cold today, how is he doing?"

The concierge looked a little strange, and said, "The little one goes in and informs."

Ji Heng thought that the concierge was going to go in to report. There was no such thing before, and he was invited in directly. He was very suspicious and thought that Xia Jin was begged by Xu Qilang to lie to him together.

So he went directly into the courtyard and walked towards the inner courtyard, because it was already night, there were several wind lanterns hanging under the eaves of this small courtyard, the wind lanterns were in the shape of octagonal palace lanterns, and the light shining out reflected a place, On the contrary, it makes this place very quiet.

I didn't meet a servant girl along the way, so I followed Ji Heng with Baoqin and said, "If Master Biao really wants to hide, it's really hard for us to find him."

Ji Heng said, "He's itchy."

Baoqin couldn't help smiling.

Ji Heng ignored him, the two of them had already entered the inner courtyard, the door of the main room was ajar, and inside were two lamps wrapped in floor-to-ceiling gauze, and Ji Heng entered the main room and said, "Master Xia, is Qilang right?" With you, don't help hide him, the family is looking for him."

Just after he finished speaking, he bumped into Zhao Zhili head-on.

Zhao Zhili came out from the back room, he just put on a robe hastily on his body, and his hair was down.

Ji Heng stared at Zhao Zhili with this dignified face, and was stunned, while Baoqin quickly hid behind and exited the main room door.

Seeing Zhao Zhili like this, Ji Heng knew that he had interrupted someone's good business, and couldn't help feeling a little strange and embarrassed, but he could only cover it up with a smile and said, "You...are you there?"

Zhao Zhili also seemed a little embarrassed, but he acted very naturally. He had already tied his belt, came over and slapped Ji Heng on the shoulder, and said, "Why are you here at this time?"

Ji Heng didn't see anything, and said distressedly, "I said a few words to Qilang, and he got angry and ran away from home. I came to look for him to go back. Since you are here, it seems that Qilang It's really gone. I have to look elsewhere."

Zhao Zhili frowned and said, "Xu Qilang is not young anymore. It's too disgraceful to run away from home after a few words from you. I'll go find it with you too."

Ji Heng's people were already retreating outside the door, saying, "No need, the spring night is short, spend your time on your own, I'll go first."

As he said that, he had already avoided Zhao Zhili and went out.

Zhao Zhili was a little embarrassed, and wanted to hold Ji Heng back, but he didn't do anything in the end.

It seemed that Ji Heng was really worried about Xu Qilang. On such a cold night, when he ran in, there was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, and his cheeks were also red. He didn't even put on a cloak, so he didn't know if he would be cold.

Zhao Zhili stood there with a sense of loss in his heart, but was soon interrupted by Xia Jin's voice in the room, Xia Jin called him softly, "Your Majesty, is Young Master Ji gone?"

Zhao Zhili went back to the inner room, "Well, I've already left."

Ji Heng returned to the carriage, thinking about where Xu Qilang could go, so he asked the coachman to go to Uncle Xu's mansion in the capital to have a look. The coachman drove the carriage past, but Xu Qilang was not there, so Ji Heng had no choice but to go again. Let's go to Mr. Zhang's house...

There are not many places Xu Qilang can go in the capital, and the city gate has been closed at this time, so he probably didn't go out of the city.

After searching around but not finding Xu Qilang, Ji Heng frowned anxiously, thinking that Xu Qilang's temper was getting bigger and bigger, so he couldn't say anything about him.

I also feel that Xu Qilang is now 14 years old, and it is the time when the boy is the most rebellious. In the future, should he be disciplined strictly or let nature take its course.

After thinking about it, Ji Heng felt that he could only discipline him strictly, otherwise Xu Qilang would not be able to become a talent.

Ji Heng felt that worrying about him was similar to raising a son, so he had to sigh inwardly again in the end.

Baoqin said, "Eldest young master, let's go home first, maybe young master Biao has already gone back."

Ji Heng frowned and said: "It's good to go back, I'm afraid something will happen to him."

As the new year approaches, the law and order in Beijing will be worse. Even if there are more soldiers on patrol at night, accidents still happen frequently in the capital.

What's more, Xu Qilang is riding a good horse, and he is only a 14-year-old boy.

Ji Heng was so worried that his heart ached, thinking why Xu Qilang couldn't be more relieved.

Because he searched for several places that Xu Qilang might go to, but couldn't find them, Ji Heng had no choice but to let the carriage go home.

As soon as he returned to the gate of Ji's mansion, he met a bright boy in green clothes. He stood there, as if he wanted to knock on the door, but he didn't dare to.

It's getting late now, the gate of the Ji Mansion has been closed, even the door of the carriageway is closed.

Liu Ji, the guard of the outer court sitting on the shaft of the carriage, got out of the carriage and knocked on the door, then walked over to him and asked, "Hey, what are you doing sneaking around here?"

Hearing his voice, Baoqin opened the curtain of the carriage to look, and heard the young man in blue bowed politely, and said, "My lord, the villain is here on business, and I want to find Mr. Xu from your mansion." Former Uncle Xu."

Xu Qian is Xu Qilang's servant, Xu Qilang is the same master as Ji Heng in the mansion, his servant is naturally known to everyone, and Liu Ji also knows him, so he said, "Why come to him so late, hurry up Go, or if the master of the mansion finds out, you and Xu Qian can't afford to walk around."

He thought that Xu Qian had some affair with the outside world.

But the young man in Tsing Yi said, "Master Xu Dachuan asked the younger one to come. I didn't find Uncle Xu Qian, but I can't explain when I go back."

When Ji Heng heard it in the carriage, his heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly said, "Liu Ji, let him come over."

Liu Ji was a tall man, although his kind face made people feel full of oppression, he winked at the young man in Tsing Yi, and the young man in Tsing Yi rushed to the carriage.

Holding the piano against the curtain of the carriage, the young man in Tsing Yi looked over at the two headlights on the carriage, and saw a very handsome young man sitting inside. It must be said that this young man in Tsing Yi saw a lot of beautiful men, but he didn't. Seeing such a good-looking one, I couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then heard the other party say, "You mentioned Xu Dachuan, I'm his cousin, and it's the same if you ask me for something."

So the young man in Tsing Yi hurriedly told the whole story as if he was being amnesty.

It turned out that Xu Qilang didn't go to anyone's house he knew, and he ran to Xiaoguishu Street.

Both Daguishu Street and Xiaoguishu Street are places of fireworks.

In the first half of the year, Daguishu Street suffered a fire and burned half of the street, and many people died, but it was rebuilt soon, and the prosperity of the past was restored, and because of the renovation, the partition was added Firewall, business is better.

On Daguishu Street there are mainly brothels, but on Xiaoguishu Street there are mainly brothels.

The Yong Dynasty banned officials from prostitution, which led to the prevalence of masculinity, and there were no fewer brothels than brothels.

That's all, many rich families are worried that their children will have children with women outside the house and disrupt the clan rules, but they would rather their children be good men. Even in some noble families, before the children are formally married, there are child molesters in their homes. , Compared with having a lot of housemates and taking concubines, it is easier to accept, at least it will not make children and mess up the rules.

So before Zhao Zhili married the princess, he said that he was fond of child prostitution, and that if he didn't find a woman, his family ignored him.

But Ji's family is different, there are many rules, absolutely not looking for child prostitutes, even Xu Qilang, Uncle Xu sent him a beautiful woman, but not a handsome boy.

Now Xu Qilang went to Xiaoguishu Street, Ji Heng gritted his teeth angrily, not knowing what to say.

Ji Heng didn't think that Xu Qilang was good at treating Nanfeng badly, but he just thought that the men in the small mansion were not clean.

Xu Qilang rode his peerless horse, Jin Zi, all the way to Xiaoguishu Street, and that horse attracted the envious eyes of countless people. When the old bustard saw him, he thought he was a winner, so he naturally stepped forward to strike up a conversation with him. Pulled into the building, and Jean took good care of his horse.

Xu Qilang was wearing mink fur brocade and jade crown moccasin boots. At first glance, he was from an extraordinary family, and he was young. A boy of this age couldn't resist the temptation. It was the first time he came here, and he might become a regular visitor in the future. The old bustard hastened to entertain with [-]% enthusiasm.

Xu Qilang didn't wear a cloak. Although he was dressed warmly, he rode a horse, blew all the wind, and suffocated all the time. Naturally, he was hungry and cold. This small hall is magnificent, warm and fragrant, and the hosts People are very enthusiastic, so he stayed.

The old bustard introduced the red card Liuxiang to entertain Xu Qilang, so Xu Qilang was taken into Liuxiang's room in a daze. After drinking and having fun, Xu Qilang discovered a problem, that is, he didn't bring silver taels.

The jade crown on the head and the sable fur on the body are all very valuable, and the horse is hard to find.

But he can't mortgage these things here.

Liuxiang is a very sensible person. Seeing that Xu Qilang was drinking to relieve his worries, he knew that he might have run out of the house because he was depressed, and forgot to bring money for a while. This is understandable, so he said, let him The young man in green clothes next to him came to his house to get money, so that Xu Qilang would not be embarrassed in front of the old bustard's mother in the future.

Xu Qilang didn't dare to let his family know that he had entered the prostitution den, so he ordered the boy to find Xu Qian.

Unexpectedly, this young man in Tsing Yi couldn't think of Xu Qilang's whirling thoughts at all, and when he saw Ji Heng saying that he was his cousin, he directly confessed everything.

Ji Heng had already calmed down after hearing what the young man in Tsing Yi had said. He touched his purse, because he was never short of money when he was walking in the palace, and he thought it should be enough for Xu Qilang's overnight expenses. Several people said, "Now let's go to Xiaoguishu Street. Don't let others know about today's matter, otherwise Qilang will be beaten. If someone else finds out by then, I will count on you."

The coachman and Liu Ji both responded quickly. Baoqin is his personal servant, who knows best about keeping secrets. When the young servant in Tsing Yi heard what Ji Heng said, he was a little surprised, and hurriedly took a few people to Xiaogui with a smile. tree alley.

Ji Heng asked him to get into the carriage, but the servant didn't dare to do so before, but after seeing Ji Heng say it twice, he went up.

After getting into the carriage, the carriage slowly headed towards Xiaoguishu Alley.

When the curtain of the carriage was lowered, a luminous pearl on the grid on one side of the carriage emitted a white light. Although the light was weak and not as strong as the candlelight, it was still able to illuminate the carriage quite brightly, which surprised the young man very much.

The mattress in the car was thick and warm, and the wood on the wall looked like good wood, but he didn't know what kind of wood it was. The best he knew was a small sandalwood box that belonged to the waiter Liu Xiang. There is a string of golden nanmu beads on his hand. In addition to the seat in the carriage, there is also a small table that can be put down. On one side of the grid, there are books and other things, which are covered with a faint fragrance. Winding and warm.

Baoqin handed the hand warmer to Ji Heng, and then asked the boy in Tsing Yi, "What's your name?"

The young man in Tsing Yi grew up in the capital, and the Hongjing Pavilion where he was located was a very grand and luxurious gold sales den, and the consumer groups inside were all people of high status or wealth.

He is also very knowledgeable.

He knew that Ji's Mansion was not ordinary, but it was still much worse than the old duke's mansion in the capital. Now that he saw this carriage, he realized that Ji's Mansion was not worse than those extravagant duke's mansions.

He didn't dare to look at Ji Heng carefully, but just took a few sneaky glances. Ji Heng was thinking about something with a sullen face, but his face, under the light of Yingying night pearls, was as warm and moist as the most delicate creamy fat, his eyebrows and eyes were like clouds of smoke from distant mountains, his lips were red and his teeth were white, which made people feel his heart. Bang bang jumping, the boy in Tsing Yi didn't even answer Baoqin's words in time.

Baoqin had no choice but to ask again, "What's your name?"

The boy in Tsing Yi came back to his senses and wondered if Ji Heng would be the eldest son of the Ji family who entered the palace as a companion. It has been rumored in Beijing that he was selected because he was good-looking, so he quickly responded sweetly. Holding the piano, "The villain's name is Bai Zhi."

Baoqin said again: "Is it the Angelica dahurica in the medicine?"

The boy in Tsing Yi nodded, "Exactly."

Baoqin also said, "Angelica dahurica has the effects of expelling wind and cold, opening orifices, promoting blood circulation, promoting muscle and relieving pain, which is quite good."

The young man in Tsing Yi smiled and said, "Master, you are really knowledgeable, and I know that."

Baoqin was stunned for a moment, "What kind of knowledge is this? It's just reading a few medical books. The one who is knowledgeable is my son..."

Ji Heng took a look at Baoqin, stopped talking about Baoqin, and then asked the boy in Tsing Yi, "Do you usually have many customers there?"

Bai Zhi said very complacently, "In our pavilion, there are oirans, the first class, the red card, the second class, the third class, and the last class. Most people flock to this oiran, but they can't see it. The first class also only accepts regular customers. It is possible to pick up some individual customers, but it is rare to pick up regular customers. The number of customers is not too many, but they are not ordinary people, and no one is idle every day."

Bai Zhi felt that she had spoken very humbly. Looking at Baoqin, Baoqin just nodded and said, "What are you?"

Bai Zhi laughed dryly, and said, "If you go back to uncle, I'm just the servant who runs errands in our master's outer room."

Baoqin was stunned for a moment, "Could there be a distinction between inner and outer rooms?"

Bai Zhi said, "Of course there are. Those in the inner room need to be more careful in serving them. The villain is in the outer room, just to run errands and get some things, so he can't get on the table."

Baoqin asked again: "Then how can I serve in the inner room?"

Bai Zhi said, "Here, there are those who please the master, or who are good-looking."

Baoqin nodded and understood, and he went to look at Ji Heng again, thinking that his kindness could be regarded as an insider.
