==Chapter 4 Acting==
Qin Suizhi looked at the lost Su Ling and couldn't help but frowned and said: "Ah Juan, what's wrong with you? Do you recognize this person?"
Su Ling took a deep breath, quickly regained her composure, raised her head and said calmly: "How could that be? I'm just curious."
Qin Suizhi nodded suspiciously and said, "Everyone here is about to leave, let's go."
Su Ling should be.
While the two were eating, Su Ling was absent-minded.
Qin Suizhi couldn't figure out the little thoughts of his daughter's family. He just felt that she was still thinking of Zhu Ze, so he said helplessly: "Ah Juan, where do you want to go later? My brother will take you there. ”
Su Ling put down the spoon and followed his words: "I heard that the show at Qingfeng Tower is very good and I want to go and see it."
Qin Suizhi looked at her dumbfounded, "The Qingfeng Tower is a mixed bag. Why are you going to that place by yourself?"
Su Ling used retreat as an advance, forced out a smile and said: "If brother doesn't like it, then he won't go."
No matter how Qin Suizhi looked at this smile, it was just a forced smile.
To say that Miss Qin has such an arrogant and indulgent temperament, Qin Suizhi really deserves a lot of credit. He had been doting on Qin Juan unconditionally for a day or two. No, when he saw that she was unhappy, he immediately gave up his principles and changed his tune.
"I'll just take you there." After saying that, Qin Suizhi raised his hand and rubbed his brow bone and said, "Then put on your curtain hat and don't take it off."
Su Ling nodded and smiled, "Okay."
Qin Suizhi sneered.
Dongzhimen of the capital city is the most prosperous place in the Zhou Dynasty.
The streets are bustling with businesses, and the sounds of hawking are endless.
Su Ling looked around and said involuntarily: This capital is indeed much more lively than when the late emperor was in power.
They walked through the last corner of the alley and arrived at the foot of Qingfeng Tower.
Qingfeng Building has three floors. The first floor is a stage and the second floor is a box. Most of the people who come here to drink and watch the theater are dignitaries, martial arts heroes, and some foreign businessmen.
As for the third floor, it is the famous Bird Pavilion in the world.
She only went there once, and it was to buy news about Xiao Yu.
Under the black plaque with gold paint, there is a sentence engraved on it - I know your past life, understand your suffering in this life, and solve the mystery of your afterlife.
She still remembers it vividly.
Su Ling followed Qin Suizhi into the door.
Yu Baiqi, the chief shopkeeper of Qingfeng Tower, saw the stranger coming and immediately took a look.
She had seen most of the prominent dignitaries in the capital, but the young master in front of her didn't look like a prince or aristocrat in his dress, but his appearance didn't look like a common man either. He concluded that he was either the son of a wealthy businessman or he had just arrived in the capital.
As for the girl behind him, Shopkeeper Yu narrowed his eyes.
The dazzling beauty of the robes and the gorgeous beauty of Eryao and Bi, even if they are wearing curtains and hats, they cannot conceal their beauty.
She always felt that the demeanor around him was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't place it clearly.
Looking at the behavior of the two people, Yu Niang guessed that they were brother and sister.
Yu Niang came over with a smile and said, "Are you two here to listen to the show?"
Qin Suizhi nodded, "Yes."
Yu Niang raised her lips and smiled, "Then please come this way."
After a moment, Yu Niang said to the two brothers: "It's a coincidence that you two are here. The April girl who is singing the opera today is a famous actress sent by Guangzhou Prefecture. Not to mention her beauty, she is also good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Not good."
Su Ling smiled and said, "I wonder when it will start?"
Yu Niang said: "In a quarter of an hour."
Su Ling asked again: "Is there any drama to watch?"
Yu Niang said: "Of course there is some, I will bring it to the girl later."
Yu Niang has been among men all year round, and the word charm is engraved on her face. She saw that Qin Suizhi was good-looking and serious, so she couldn't help but joke, "We April girls are not prostitutes in art. No matter how much you like the young master, don’t spend a fortune on him."
One sentence made Qin Suizhi, an unmarried man, immediately blush.
Su Ling couldn't help it anymore and laughed.
After Yu Niang left, Qin Suizhi looked at her sideways and said, "Look at how familiar you are, and ask, have you been here before behind my back?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Ling shook her head quickly.
But my heart couldn't help but thump.
This was the first time she had felt this way since she woke up.
Although she was trying her best to imitate the Qin Juan in her memory, the emotions revealed unconsciously could not be concealed.
Not to mention anyone else these past two days, even Qin Suizhi lamented more than once that she seemed like a different person.
That's it for the Qin family. Even if they find it strange, they won't doubt her identity.
But it was different in the palace.
Her appearance, her voice, her handwriting, and all her habits will be a disaster in the future.
If she entered the palace with this face, others could deceive her, but what about Xiao Yu? How could she guarantee that such a secretive man would not show any flaws after a long time?
Everyone in the palace is a human spirit. Not to mention that she is not Qin Juan at all. Even if Miss Qin is still in this world, those tricks of killing people without blood can still accuse her of being a witch.
If a person lives with a different soul, she will be no different from a ghost, and no one can tolerate her.
What should happen then?
Su Ling was just thinking when she heard drum music playing leisurely.
Smoke rose from the surrounding incense burners. In the mist, a thin white wrist suddenly walked around the blue satin curtain and raised an orchid hand.
Immediately afterwards, a woman wearing a red silk gauze with gold threads and a silver filigree jewel inlaid on her head walked toward the round platform step by step, holding a fan to cover her face.
Su Ling lowered her head and glanced at the script.
Yuntai Biography.
It is about a noble girl from the Hou family who became a prostitute in a brothel to make a living after she fell into disgrace.
Su Ling supported her forehead with her hands and cast her gaze over.
I originally wanted to watch the fun, but as I watched, I became fascinated.
Su Ling has never seen a woman whose eyebrows, eyes, nose, and lips are not prominent, but she is charming to the core. Every frown and smile is charming, and she can freely control her emotions, anger, sorrow, and joy.
She is covered with gold and red gauze, and this is the Qin Tower and Chu Pavilion.
She put on silk and satin, and this was Gaomen's mansion.
You smile lightly when you look back, and cry when you lower your head again.
Su Ling tapped the table with her index finger and curled her lips.
This April girl is really beautiful.
Qin Suizhi saw that she was looking attentively and said silently in his heart: With her playful temperament, if she really enters the palace, he doesn't know what will happen in the future.
Thinking of this, Qin Suizhi clenched his fist.
The reason why he took her to apologize to her father yesterday was actually not just because of the word "filial piety", but also for another reason that he did not say.
He took that oath and was destined not to be able to take the scientific examination and become an official in this life. If she really enters the palace, he will be able to give her nothing but more money.
The only person she can count on is Qin Wang.
Qin Suizhi played with Su Ling for three days. Before leaving, he repeatedly asked: "After I leave, you are not allowed to see Zhu Ze again."
Su Ling nodded repeatedly: "Okay, yes, I understand."
Qin Suizhi said "Hmm" and said, "Then I'll come back next month."
******
Qin Mansion, Beiyuan.
The moon shadow is hazy and the forest leaves are rustling.
Jiang Lanyue sat on a round stool, lowered her eyes and removed her earrings, and whispered to the grandmother beside her: "What are you doing these days, young lady? What did the Zhu family say?"
The old lady whispered: "Master Zhu said that the eldest lady has indeed not sent any letters there recently."
Jiang Lanyue frowned and said, "That shouldn't be the case. Could it be that after dying once, you really changed your temper?"
The old mama laughed and said: "Yinu, it seems that her nature is hard to change. Madam, does she know where the eldest son has taken her to these two days?"
Jiang Lanyue raised her eyebrows and said, "Where?"
The old woman said: "It's Qingfeng Tower. Speaking of which, this young lady is also interesting. It seems that she is not willing to live a happy life. She is a girl who always goes to Qingfeng Tower. What good things can happen to this young master? Why are you letting her go like this?"
Jiang Lanyue sneered: "Isn't it like this since childhood? Qin Sui wants the moon in the sky, so Qin Suizhi has to pick it for her, and my Rong'er, if I don't fight for her, what will happen to her? None."
The old lady said: "Should I tell the master about this?"
"No need." Jiang Lanyue made a three sign with her hands, "Qin Suizhi is gone, and within three days, she will have to reveal the trouble herself. Wouldn't it be better to let her speak out by herself? ”
Jiang Lanyue herself did not expect that it only took Su Ling less than a day to achieve the event she was looking forward to.
Qin Suizhi returned to Qian'an, Qin Wang was going to be on duty every day, and Jiang Lanyue couldn't control her, so Su Ling took the maid and servant to Qingfeng Tower early in the morning.
Unexpectedly, as soon as we entered the door, Qingfeng Building turned into a mess.
"Mother Yu, please make a price. I will definitely take these four girls."
Yu Niang said with a smile: "Four girls do not sell their bodies because of their acting skills. Today they come to Qingfeng Tower to sing and earn a living. Why should Mr. Jiang embarrass a girl's family? If you want to find a confidant, Mr. Jiang might as well go to the Chu Pavilion." Look."
"Besides, if the price is really offered, you may not be able to afford it."
Su Ling frowned.
Which Jiang or Jiang?
Is it the Jiang of Jiang Chengyuan, the Minister of Household Affairs, or the Jiang of Jiang Zhongting, the Minister of Rites?
The man laughed and said: "My father is Jiang Chengyuan, the Minister of Household Affairs. How can I, Jiang Wu, have no money? You just ask for the price."
Oh, it’s the moneyless Jiang.
Su Ling sneered, thinking that your father is so stubborn, it’s strange that you have money.
I think that when she wanted to renovate Kunning Palace, Jiang Chengyuan actually gave Xiao Yu three times! It is said over and over again that the people are poor and the households are poor, so they have to be tight-knit so that they can survive every year.
It means telling her not to be extravagant and wasteful.
For this reason, she also checked the Jiang family's accounts, which were clean and clear, and she had not been greedy for any extra money.
Su Ling turned her head and glanced at the girl in April who was about to cry.
Suddenly I felt that Jiang Wu appeared at just the right time.
Yu Niang smiled and said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, unless the fourth girl nods today, Yu Niang won't be able to raise the price."
"Come here, surround Qingfeng Building for me." Jiang Wu said: "I still want her today. Don't say that I am robbing people in your Qingfeng Building. I will put the money here for you." , just a lot more."
"Wait a minute."
Su Ling took a step forward and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Jiang. Since you can make an offer, I can also make an offer. If you offer a higher price than me, I'll go. On the contrary, you and those behind you will have to pay." Let’s go.”
Jiang Wu squinted at Su Ling's veil and said, "Who are you? Whose family do you belong to? Dare you tell me the rules?"
Su Ling found a table and sat down, her wrists resting on her knees, and said calmly: "Young Master Jiang, you don't have to worry about who I am. Since I'm bidding, I'm talking with money, what do you think?"
Jiang Wu glanced at the martyrdom warrior standing beside him with his arms folded, took a breath and said: "Okay, okay, let's bid, right, fifty taels."
According to Dazhou's current salary level, fifty taels can probably buy two good concubines.
As a starting price, it is not low.
Su Ling answered without even thinking: "One hundred taels."
Although the Qin family is not prominent, the Wen family is extremely wealthy. Especially after Qin Suizhi took over the Wen family, he even brought the Qian'an business to Henan. On weekdays, he often gave Qin Juan money.
She estimated the items and silver taels in Qin Juan's hand to see if there were too many. She could still make up 800 taels.
It’s just that the eight hundred taels are neither too high nor too low. If she can get it together, so can Jiang Chengyuan’s son.
Seeing how disrespectful she was, Jiang Wu couldn't help but pinch her waist and let out a "ha", and then said: "Two hundred taels."
Su Ling immediately added: "Four hundred taels."
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding area immediately became excited.
Jiang Wu's face changed suddenly, he clenched his fist and said coldly: "Five hundred taels."
Let’s see if he doesn’t double.
Su Ling knew something in her mind and said with a smile: "Eight hundred taels."
Jiang Wu's sweat visibly slid down from his temples. He said angrily: "Who are you?!" He looked at the two crooked melons and jujubes behind Su Ling. They didn't look like wealthy people. people.
But if she wasn't a noble girl, this woman's confidence would be too much!
Su Ling said slowly: "Looking at Mr. Jiang's attitude, is it possible that he wants to make a move with me? If he makes a move today, I'm afraid my father will take him to Mr. Xue's house for tea."
Master Xue, that is Xue Xiangyang, the Minister of Punishment, the brother of Concubine Xue today.
"Your surname is Xue? Who are you from the Xue family?"
Su Ling asked instead, "Miss April is still here. Is Mr. Jiang still bidding?"
Seeing this posture, Jiang Wu no longer dared to add any more, or in other words, he didn't think the actor was worth eight hundred taels.
He frowned and said: "You are a girl, why do you buy an actor with eight hundred taels!"
"You are buying it, but I am not. She can stay or leave today as she pleases."
What these words mean is that they will draw out their swords to help when there is injustice.
Su Ling stood up and walked to April, lifted up half of her veil, and said softly: "Fourth girl, do you want to come with me?"
