The moon comes to take pictures

Ning Ruichen carefully held a piece of clean cloth, brocade, with flowing dark lines.

Under his hand is a Bodhisattva statue, the room is not very bright, and the texture cannot be seen, but the carving technique looks very expensive.After wiping this side, I groped on the altar for a while on tiptoe, rubbing the offering plate to straighten the statue of the Bodhisattva, and then slowly bowed down and knelt down.

After Bao'er knocked on the door three times, Ning Ruichen hurriedly got up from the futon, bowed to the Bodhisattva statue again, and then went out.He did not allow the servants at home to intervene in the daily offerings. Bao'er was silent outside, and the master and servant walked out of the courtyard before opening their mouths.

"Master went to the banquet, and he said that people from Beijing came to pay tribute, and all the dignified people should give him face." Bao'er told the truth, but she didn't understand the meaning of paying tribute, and she was not very respectful, she pursed her lips: " There's no one in the yamen, and now it's messed up."

"Don't say it, it's the eunuch who purchased tributes for Long Live's birthday." A voice pierced from outside the corridor, followed by a hurried figure flashing out, quite majestic, Bao'er froze, and saw the man waving again: "Bao'er, come here, I have something to tell you."

Ning Ruichen said in surprise: "Brother." The man nodded slightly, and said relentlessly, "Bao'er."

Bao'er waited beside Ning Ruichen for a while, then called "Master" dawdly, and then walked forward reluctantly.

"I'm going to Suzhou today." Ning Yuquan paused and glanced forward, "You have been with the young master for the longest time. He has been sick and weak since he was a child. You have to take care of him. He needs to take care of everything. Don't be sloppy. Otherwise...the master will peel off your skin."

Ning Yuquan was half of the family, and his words carried weight. Bao'er was frightened and froze, wanting to cry.

Ning Ruichen worried: "I'm going to travel again, does dad know?"

"Father doesn't touch the ground in the yamen, but he doesn't have time to talk to me. The affairs of the Ministry of Industry have always been like this. I'll go early and return early." The eldest brother scared Bao'er to tears, so he had to hold Bao'er to walk around a few times Quan Dang comforted him, seeing Ning Ruichen worried, he said: "Brother, there is nothing to worry about, but you, someone from the palace, let's not cause trouble for dad."

Speaking of this, Ning Ruichen felt guilty: "Brother still trusts me, besides, Dad has been in Yingtian for more than ten years, what could happen..."

That being said, when the elder who was going to the banquet with his father stormed in, Ning Ruichen vaguely knew that something was going to happen tonight.

"Master...Young master, where is the master!" The long tail was sweating, and his ears were red in winter.

Ning Yuquan has been gone for two hours, and he can't find it now.Hearing that, the leader turned pale again: "My God! Something serious happened!"

Ning Ruichen panicked: "Is it my father?"

The chief follower nodded indiscriminately, "Those people were having a banquet in the cardamom booth. They were calling opera singers and playing... It's not enough to sing for a whole day! But something happened in the yamen halfway, and the master had to leave the banquet..." He slowly Slowly stopped, with a frown on his face, "The order is to ask the uncle to preside over, who knows...the group of people are still making a scene right now!"

Ning Ruichen frowned.

Cardamom Pavilion was his mother's old residence before leaving the pavilion. It is a small garden with exquisite surroundings. Wintersweet is in bloom at this time, but people are usually not allowed to enter it.Ning Ruichen probably guessed what was going on, it was just that the people in the palace used Tianyan to suppress him, no matter how upright his father was, he was a courtier after all, thinking of this, his disgust for eunuchs deepened even more.

The long follower crackled and said all this, but he still didn't have a backbone, and he hugged his head helplessly, "The uncle is not here, how good it is!"

Ning Ruichen couldn't help it either, so he could only say: "Don't worry, the people attending the banquet are all officials after all, there are always rules. Take me to the Cardamom Pavilion."

The Cardamom Pavilion is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the scenery is excellent. At this time, the night air drops suddenly, the corner of the eaves is rounded by a white moon, and the long street across the bank is full of lanterns. quiet.

Dead branches slant out in front of the corridor, vines meander, and then go in, the faint sound of pipa strings, it is the place where the group of dignitaries drink and have fun.

Ning Ruichen was still outside the door, and only after he had a glimpse of who was sitting inside, the people in the bar spotted him.

"The virtuous nephew is here!" Chang Xi yelled, full of gangster air, took off his clothes and said that he was the great eunuch guarding Nanjing, but no one would believe him.He was really drunk, his cheeks were burning red, and he patted the table: "Where is your father, tell the uncles to wait!"

As soon as the voice came out, the sound of the pipa stopped. Ning Ruichen didn't have the time to look at it carefully, and was guarded by everyone's piercing eyes, and walked to the wine table step by step.

"Uncle Chang, my father is busy with business, so he called me here to entertain all uncles for him."

Immediately someone patted the table: "Which one of us here is not busy with business, he is the only one..." Before he finished speaking, the person on the side raised his hand, and that person immediately shut up.

Chang Xi smiled and leaned on the wine table: "It's been a long time since I saw my nephew, come here, let's catch up. Look at this—" He raised his hand and pointed at a eunuch in a bullfight suit: "This is from the palace. Uncle has to call Third Brother!"

The eunuch who came to pay tribute in the palace was named Cui Xiang, his temple hair was slightly white, but there were few wrinkles, all eunuchs were like this, and he couldn't compare his age with others.Chang Xi just wanted to make things difficult for Ning Ruichen, depending on how he called the export.

The people at the banquet didn't know about Ning Ruichen, but they all knew that his father, Ning Ji, was a stern general, and how many people he suffered from, they were all waiting to see the joke.

Unexpectedly, Ning Ruichen didn't call him Uncle or Uncle, so he bowed straight, and Wen Tun called out: "Mr."

This honorific title is full of weight, Cui Xiang and Chang Xi didn't expect him to come out like this, they were both startled, but they quickly reacted, and immediately laughed, Cui Xiang grinned, generously: "Okay, What old gentleman, it's Uncle Cui!"

"Third Brother, this is what I told you, the son of our Nanjing Jinyi Wei Ning Commander! Look, you are blessed! This time everyone may meet for the first time, come to get acquainted!" Chang Xi opened his drunken eyes, clapped his hands and said: " Come, nephew, take your seat!"

Before Ning Ji left, he sat in the main seat facing west, which was now empty, and Ning Ruichen didn't even look at it. He had ordered everything on the way, and he glanced outside, and the chief who was guarding outside moved a sheet. New ottomans, at the end.

"Why do you uncles only drink some boozy wine?" Ning Ruichen smiled and didn't pay attention to Chang Xi's unpredictable expression, "I heard that Uncle Chang's family team is here, no matter how you think about it, it's a first-class team. Uncle, don't hide it, let your nephew open his eyes."

"Nephew is free and easy." Chang Xi breathed out alcohol, tilted his body and looked up and down: "You and your father are really different."

That Cui Xiang raised his face, and said: "Your father doesn't like it, and uncle and uncle can't go against his wishes, let them go to cool off."

Others don't know, but Chang Xi's eunuch is the most ostentatious eunuch. Ning Ruichen has seen and heard it before, and knows that this is another blame: "Isn't it just calling my nephew? Uncle Cui is a guest this time. Although my nephew I am ignorant, but I also understand that there is no reason to disappoint customers and return."

It was only then that Chang Xi looked him in the eye, and after a while, with a wave of his hand, the figure behind him moved gracefully.

The strings of the pipa trembled, and Chang Xi's man boarded the waterside pavilion again, with black hair and light gauze, like a cloud of soft mist swept out of thin air.The musicians were playing music, and Ning Ruichen glanced over during the banquet. The beauties all around were made of hibiscus and narcissus. They were dressed in pink and ink, but few of them came out to sing. They all folded their necks and snuggled up to the powerful You drink in your arms.

Ning Ruichen's heart sank.

This is not a family music class, it is clearly a prostitute surnamed Chang.
