Like Flowers Like Dreams, Flowing Water, Childhood Sweethearts, Chaotic Youth Chapter 42
He finally finished speaking and turned to look at Ji Ye.
Ji Ye smiled and said: "No wonder Caisheng said that I am the third one this month. He just listened to Brother Fang and wanted me to be the personal guard? But I still cherish my life, I'm afraid, Your Highness
I have to find someone else.”
Fang Yu said: "Brother Ji, don't refuse in a hurry. Your martial arts are naturally no better than those rotten fish and shrimps. Moreover, the New Year is approaching. Although my three highnesses have neither status nor power, there are some banquet gatherings."
Or is it necessary to be there as usual today, and the Princess of Yu Kingdom will probably be there as well, doesn’t Brother Ji not want to have more interactions with her?"
When Ji Ye thought about it, this was indeed the case. The two of them from the Yu Kingdom were so noble that they might have already lived in the palace. Otherwise, how could they enter the palace and see her again?
This thought hurt my heart, and after thinking for a while, I finally said: "Your Highness is quite good at catching people's minds, so I agree."
A smile appeared on Fang Yu's face as if he had succeeded: "From now on, you and I will often compete with each other, and my marksmanship will improve rapidly."
Ji Ye suddenly asked: "Just now you said that none of the princes in the Snow Kingdom practice martial arts, but why did Brother Fang master this pistol technique?"
Fang Yu lowered his head and looked at the spear on the stone table and said: "Since I competed with Brother Ji today, and then we have to get along day and night, I will not hide it from you. What I am practicing here is the thirty-sixth sword passed down by the Yang family in Zhending City."
The Lu Yang family's marksmanship has been practiced since Caisheng first came to the capital, and he practiced it alone for more than ten years, hiding his skill from others.
But at the moment, it seems that this marksmanship is not very ideal, and he was defeated in Brother Ji's hands with only forty or fifty moves. I just don't know who has extraordinary martial arts at such a young age. Which sect in the south did he learn from?"
Ji Ye thought about it for a while, but he really couldn't tell what sect he belonged to, so he could only say: "Brother Fang's marksmanship is also very exquisite, so there is no need to underestimate yourself. I don't have many sects, and my master only has a disciple like me."
Fang Yu nodded slightly and said, "It turns out it was passed down by a reclusive master."
Seeing Fang Yu telling the whole story about his life experience in front of him, Ji Ye actually wanted to reveal his life experience and secrets for a moment, but he changed his mind and resisted speaking out. After all, he was the only one with him.
Never trust someone you have known for less than a day.
While thinking, he suddenly remembered that the jade flute had not been shown to anyone since he entered the capital city, so he took it out from his arms and handed it to Fang Yu: "Have you seen such a thing before, or seen someone looking for this flute before?"
?”
Fang Yu took the jade flute, examined it, and shook his head: "I am too short-sighted to recognize where it was made. Maybe the masters in the palace can identify something."
Ji Ye's heart darkened, thinking that using a jade flute as a token to find someone would be like looking for a needle in a haystack. If the leader's daughter Qu Ling could not be found within this year, he would probably have to go to the Five Poisons Sect to ask for help.
Then the timely antidote will go to Li Ruolin and let her take it all the way.
While the two were talking, a slim figure walked up from the street. Before they could see their faces clearly, they had already approached and knocked on the courtyard door.
Fang Yu said loudly: "Please come in, I wonder why the girl came here at night?"
The shabby wooden door in the courtyard opened with a creak, and Ji Ye saw that it was the maid Wan'er who was beside Zhang Xuening at noon. At this time, she was wearing a pure white fox fur coat, and she was actually quite dignified and noble.
The maidservant Wan'er entered the courtyard, looked around and saw that there was no one around. She looked up and saw the two of them sitting side by side on the roof. She said, "I didn't expect Mr. Ji to be here. My lady sent me to send an invitation to His Highness the Third Prince.
There will be a gambling party for courtesans in Mingyue Tower in two days, and I would like to invite Your Highness to enjoy it."
Fang Yu's quiet voice came from the roof: "Oiran? But the newly promoted oiran Ye Xiangwan?"
Wan'er lowered her head and said: "The one who returned to His Highness is exactly the one."
Fang Yu said: "Just put it on the stone table."
Wan'er took a few steps forward and followed what he said. She raised her head and took a deep look at Ji Ye, and said, "That slave will leave now." She stepped back and turned around to leave.
When her figure gradually disappeared from the street, Ji Ye turned to Fang Yu and asked, "Isn't the building where this girl belongs is called Xueyang Building? Why is there another Mingyue Building here?"
Fang Yu looked into the distance and said calmly: "This Xueyang Tower is just a restaurant, only used for drinking and hosting banquets, while Mingyue Tower is a brothel, so it is different. Besides, his Zhang family's ancestral business does not stop at this.
Yes, there are more than ten kinds of businesses such as banks and cloth shops. Not only in Shangjing, but also in several big cities in the Snow Country. It is not an exaggeration to say that half of the Snow Country belongs to their Zhang family. "
Ji Ye nodded frequently as he listened, and then asked: "Then why does Miss Zhang Xuening leave the other two favored princes alone instead of fawning over her, and instead treats you so kindly, so tenderly and considerately to the Third Highness?"
He was asking more out of gossip than curiosity.
As expected, Fang Yu said coldly: "Of course it's because of my appearance. She comes from a wealthy Zhang family and has some connections in the court, so she doesn't care about my embarrassing status. However, she has been around since she was six or seven years old.
He often came outside this hospital to harass me, but later he always avoided me when he saw me, so he asked his subordinates to send him food, food, clothing, etc., until now."
Seeing that Ji Ye was indeed right, he didn't know what to say for a moment. Fang Yu happened to suggest that it was still early and that the two of them should have another discussion. Ji Ye gave in and Fang Yu was defeated in the hundred moves.
——————————
For the past two days, Ji Ye was frightened, and he often thought of the two people whose throats were cut and their lives taken away. Fortunately, during this period, there was no abnormality during the day and night precautions, and he gradually relaxed.
After two days of this, I came to knock on the door in the evening and said respectfully: "Mr. Ji, Your Highness has asked me to invite you to leave." Seeing that Ji Ye was not as quick to die as the first two people, his words became more respectful.
After Ji Ye got dressed, he remembered that it was time to go to Mingyue Tower. When he walked out, he saw Fang Yu waiting for him in the courtyard.
The two of them walked out of the courtyard and walked through more than ten streets. Mingyue Tower is located in the southwest of the palace, slightly more remote than Xueyang Tower.
When I went to Beijing at the end of the Youshi period, the night began to appear, but the number of pedestrians on both sides was not reduced at all, which showed how prosperous and prosperous it was. It was the first time in Ji Ye's life that I saw it, and I couldn't stop looking around. Compared with the winter nights in Kuizhou when I was a child.
Street scene, I don’t know how prosperous the capital city is here.
Ji Ye followed Fang Yu as he walked along the road, and a tall building loomed in the distance. It had about seven or eight floors, and each floor was paved with various colored glazed tile roofs. The corners of the four corners were covered with lanterns, which shone on the shiny glazed tiles like
During the day, it is as bright as the Buddha's light on the top of Lingshan Temple. It is really a beautiful palace, magnificent and magnificent.
Ji Ye couldn't help but asked from behind: "That's Mingyue Tower in the distance? It's like a palace, much more grand than Xueyang Tower."
Fang Yu looked back at him, walked side by side with him, and said, "That's natural. This Mingyue Tower is the most famous brothel in the city. All the dignitaries in the city gather here. It is the most luxurious and exquisite building besides the palace.
Naturally, it is not comparable to other restaurants and the like."
Ji Ye asked: "From what you said, Your Highness, I must have visited you often?"
Fang Yu smiled calmly as if he was self-deprecating: "Where can I, a down-and-out prince, get the money to go to a place like this? Although the prince has a thousand taels of silver every month, the officials in the inner government deceive me about my status.
Withholding 99% of the regular money, and then directly withholding all of it, even the money was not issued.
Nowadays, they only rely on their grandfather Fei Ge to send some banknotes. However, the Yang family only engages in martial arts and is not very wealthy. They only have more than a hundred taels of silver every two or three months, which is probably only enough for one night of food, drink and fun.
If it weren’t for this invitation, I would never have come here.”
