Outside the window, the drizzling rain rolled up a trace of coolness, outlining a dense smoke painting.
The Tired Snow Pavilion stood in the middle of the lake. Only a small path on the lake could lead to the outside. The two sides of the lake were filled with daffodils. When the dark wind blew, it carried a faint fragrance.
The Tired Snow Pavilion was the most beautiful pavilion in Weiyang Pavilion. It seemed to be isolated from the world, and the immortal wind curled up.
The multicolored clouds scattered, the moon was like a hook, and the curtains rolled up in Weiyang Pavilion. Weiyang Pavilion was famous in the world and was known as the number one pavilion in the world. The most famous was the mellow wine, delicious food, and stunning beauties in the world.
Although Weiyang Brothel was a brothel, it was not an ordinary one. It was divided into two places. One was Rouge Hall, where famous courtesans lived. The girls here did not have a contract to sell themselves. They only needed to pay two-fifths of their monthly income. If they were dissatisfied, they could leave immediately. The second was the City-Toppling Pavilion, which was a place to cultivate women's skills. Any woman who was selected to enter the City-Toppling Pavilion would have the opportunity to enter the palace to perform, or leave the City-Toppling Pavilion. In the future, they would definitely marry into a rich family and have a bright future. Therefore, many young ladies would try their best to enter the City-Toppling Pavilion.
In the Tired Snow Pavilion, a woman in a white dress sat in front of the dressing table, putting a pear purple jade hairpin into her hair. The woman's eyebrows were extremely elegant and graceful, her skin was fairer than snow, and her starry eyes were shining. She was extremely elegant and beautiful, like a daffodil outlined by a faint ink painting, with the charm of Jiangnan's poetry and smoke painting. She was graceful and elegant. The corners of her lips were curled up into a faint smile. It was a kind of beauty that was out of this world. It was pure and elegant, bright and beautiful.
"Miss, Miss Bi is here." The woman in the pinkish-purple embroidered gown was beautiful and graceful. Her elegant eyebrows were calm and dignified.
Lou Huan looked at Zi Yao in a daze. In the past, Zi Yi had also served her like this. Thinking about it, she had left for two years. She came back to her senses and said," Please come in."”
She stood up from the dressing table and put on her veil. She leaned against the couch and casually picked up a book to read.
"Miss." The woman who came in from outside the room was wearing a wide-sleeved green dress with chrysanthemum patterns. She was slender and beautiful, like a chrysanthemum in a green lake, beautiful and beautiful.
Lou Huan put down the book and looked up at her." Luan Bi, are you not happy here?”
Luan Bi bit her lip and shook her head.
"Then why did you leave? Although the girls in Weiyang Restaurant don't have a contract to sell themselves, you can leave at any time, but at least give me a reasonable reason.”
"It's…it's because Dairou said he wanted to marry me, so I wanted to leave. We'll get married when he's in high school.”Luan Bi looked at her pitifully.
"So that's how it is, Dai Lang? Was it that scholar who had been coming here recently?”For the girls in the brothel, they hoped to be able to take care of their husbands and raise their children like normal women and live a peaceful life. Even the girls in Weiyang Restaurant were no exception.
Luan Bi suddenly knelt down and begged," Miss, I really like him. Besides, I'm already twenty-two this year. I don't have time to waste anymore.”
"Luan Bi, do you really believe that he will treat you well? If he was in high school, would he still like a prostitute like you?”Everyone was proud of marrying a girl from the Allure Pavilion, but Luan Bi was a girl from the Rouge Hall. Even if she was in Weiyang Pavilion, she couldn't change everyone's thoughts.
Luan Bi's face sank and turned pale. Her trembling lips quivered." I believe him."”
As soon as she said this, he knew that she had made up her mind. He did not say anything more and waved his hand to let her leave.
After Luan Bi left, Zi Yao stepped forward and softly said," Miss, Miss Bi is very tight on money recently. Even the servant maids serving her have been dismissed. That scholar often comes to ask Miss Bi for money.”
Lou Huan frowned slightly. She thought for a while and opened her red lips." Bring that scholar to me. Don't let Luan Bi know. Then, call Lingxin back and exempt Luan Bi from this month's salary."”
If that scholar really treated her well, this bit of money could be considered a congratulatory gift for them. However, if not…
Why was this matter so worrisome?
She was groggy and unknowingly fell asleep on the chaise lounge.
It wasn't until the afternoon when Zi Yao woke her up that she realized that the sun had already set halfway. The golden setting sun shone through the half-covered bed, creating ripples.
She tidied her clothes and put on her veil. She walked out of the room and walked down the spiral stairs to the main hall of the Tired Snow Pavilion. She saw a man in green standing there. He had the aura of a scholar and was gentle and elegant. However, when she saw his face, Lou Huan was stunned. He had similar facial features, but he lacked the charm.
"Miss."
Lou Huan came back to her senses and shook her head. He had clearly passed away a long time ago, so how could she still remember him? She smiled tiredly and walked towards him." You are the acting young master."”
The man was stunned at first. His eyes seemed to have a magical power that attracted people. They were as beautiful as demonic eyes and as clear as elegant eyes. After a while, he came back to his senses and bowed." I'm Dai Ling."”
He had never seen her before, but he had long heard that the owner of Weiyang Tower was a peerless beauty. It was just that she rarely stepped into the Rouge Hall of Weiyang Tower and almost always stayed in the Tired Snow Pavilion.
There were many rumors about her, and they were all very mysterious. No one knew the name of the owner of Weiyang Restaurant. Other than her trusted aides, even the ladies of Weiyang Restaurant had never seen her before. It was just that the people who came here addressed her respectfully as Miss.
"Young Master Dai, there's no need for us to beat around the bush. You want to marry Luan Bi?"
Dai Ling was stunned. He did not expect her to be so straightforward." Yes, I'll marry her after high school."”
"Then I'll congratulate you in advance. However, if Young Master Dai were to be promoted in the future, would he still treat Luan Bi like he did now? Even though Weiyang Restaurant doesn't have a contract, I still have to be responsible for them.”Lou Huan stared at her, her eyes as calm as water, making her heart flutter.
"Does Miss not trust Luan Bi's judgment?”
"It's not that I don't believe it, but I'm afraid that once a prostitute encounters love, she will lose her sense of propriety. And Young Master Dai, will you accept a prostitute as your wife? Would you let your colleagues laugh at you for having a wife from a brothel?”The world always treated women who had fallen into the dust with colored eyes. No matter how clean and self-loving she was, once she fell into the dust, she would forever be branded with that mark. "If Young Master is short of money, this little bit of goodwill can be considered as helping Young Master. I only hope that Young Master will not provoke Luan Bi.”
Dai Ling took the brocade bag. It was heavy and he did not answer for a long time. Then, he bowed." I'll take my leave first."”
"Ziyao, send Young Master Dai off."
Lou Huan sighed. This person had no pride and was not someone worthy of being entrusted with his life.
He heard from Purple Dress that Dai Ling never came to Weiyang Tower again after that. Things were calm for a few days, and everything was normal.
The night wind blew gently, and Lou Huan's boudoir was even more silent.
The door was gently pushed open. The person suppressed the sound of his footsteps and slowly walked past until he stopped in front of the bed. He paused for a moment and took out a dagger from his sleeve. The back of the silver blade reflected a trace of light through the moonlight that leaked through the window. The person held the dagger with both hands and closed his eyes. He muttered," Miss, I'm sorry. I didn't want to."”
The moment the knife stabbed down, her hand stopped in mid-air and couldn't move. At the same time, the candlelight in the room lit up, reflecting the determination of the woman in green and the elegant indifference of the woman in purple on the bed.
Luan Bi's hands were tightly wrapped by a purple silk. Her eyes stared at the woman in front of her in shock and fear. Her lips trembled, and she was speechless for a moment.
Lou Huan flipped the purple silk in her hand and the dagger in Luan Bi's hand fell to the ground. A pair of clear and bright eyes looked at her, intoxicating yet chilling.
"Impossible. I clearly drugged you. You should be unconscious at this time.”Luan Bi couldn't believe what she was seeing. She had clearly drugged her and had only dared to take action after she had made sure that she was asleep. Why was this happening?
Lou Huan took back the purple silk and smiled. Her words were full of sarcasm." Luan Bi, you've been here for a long time. You should know what kind of place Weiyang Tower is."”
Their every move was under his control. If there were any small tricks, how could he not know? The reason why he set up a trap to lure her here was that he did not believe that she would do this for love.
When Luan Bi saw her, she was filled with fear. The peerless beauty in front of her was like a demonic charm. She had always known that Weiyang Restaurant was not simple. Putting aside the mysterious Qingcheng Pavilion, just the girls in Rouge Hall were different from ordinary women. However, she did not expect this seemingly weak young lady to have such ability.
Seeing that she didn't answer, Lou Huan sighed." Are you still going to marry him because of what happened to Dailing? Luan Bi, are you still going to marry him?”
"You know."
"To make you give up everything and even think of killing me, other than him, what else is worth making you do this?”
"Miss, you know that the best fate for a prostitute is to marry a merchant's wife. When her beauty wanes, I don't know what my fate will be.”Luan Bi's clothes fluttered in the wind, and her words were filled with melancholy.
It was indeed sad that merchants valued profits over separation. "But he's not someone you can entrust your life to. He's just using you now.”
Lou Huan, what do you know?" Luan Bi suddenly raised her voice and collapsed onto the ground." You're only nineteen years old. You're born well and pure. I've been in a brothel since I was twelve. Are you better at judging people than me?”
"Those who are involved are confused. Moreover, what's the difference between me and you?”These words seemed to be said for Luan Bi, but also seemed to be said for himself.
"Different, of course it's different! The fifth daughter of the Qi Dynasty's richest family, the Lou family, tell me, are you the same as us?!”
Lou Huan's calm expression became a little panicked. Her body trembled and her thin figure looked especially delicate under the moonlight." How did you know?”
At this moment, Luan Bi no longer cared about her status. Seeing her like this, she said even more boldly," I also know that Miss is the Seventh Prince's princess consort.”
"Enough, Luan Bi. Since you've made up your mind, I won't stop you. However, if you regret it one day, don't blame me for not reminding you.”Her tone carried a hint of helplessness. She got up and took out a glazed plum blossom hairpin from the jewelry box on the dressing table. She put it on her hair and said softly without caring about the fear in her eyes," You and I are sisters after all. I'll give this hairpin to you."”
Luan Bi's eyes were filled with tears. She actually regretted what she had said to her. She should not have hurt this woman like this." Miss, there's no need. You've already exempted me from this month's salary. You're already very lenient towards Luan Bi.”
Lou Huan smiled sweetly and sincerely." When the time comes, I hope to be able to drink your wedding wine. By the way, I've called Lingxin back. She has served you for so long. You won't be used to it without her."”
"Miss." Luan Bi's heart was filled with gratitude. Since she had fallen into the dust, no one had treated her like this." Miss, after I leave, can you please find a good family for Lingxin?"”
Lou Huan nodded." Go back. Let's pretend that nothing happened tonight."”
Luan Bi turned around and was about to leave, but she stopped after a few steps. She turned around and asked," Miss, why don't you go back?”
"Luan Bi, knowing too much won't do you any good.”Shaking her head, the smile on her lips was filled with bitterness. No one would understand because even she herself did not know why. In the past, it was hatred. Now, the hatred had dissipated, but she did not know why.
Luan Bi didn't ask any more questions. After she left, there was only the creak of the door closing, and the quiet Tired Snow Pavilion fell into silence again.
After being disturbed by Luan Bi, Lou Huan was no longer sleepy. She sat lazily by the window with her arm against the window. The silver moonlight leaked through the window and outlined beautiful ripples on her body.
He raised the wine glass on the table and drank it in one gulp. The sweet and astringent liquid flowed down his throat, leaving a burning sensation.
" Green and purple, my heart is still. Even if I don't go, I won't continue my voice. Green and purple, my thoughts are still. Even if I don't go, I won't come…" The clear and pleasant singing voice sounded leisurely, as if it had touched the softest string in the bottom of one's heart. It was filled with endless longing and lingering sorrow.
