As he walked into the Swallow Return Restaurant, he saw a sea of red and green lights. The bright lights lit up the entire hall as if it was daytime.
There were 18 tables in the hall on the first floor, and each table was 1.5 meters apart.
In front of the hall was a two-meter-tall platform. On it were a few enchanting girls in cool clothes dancing and singing.
"Why is this a little different from what I thought? It's not chaotic at all!”
After entering, Chen Yantang did not see the chaotic scene he had imagined. He could not help but mutter to himself.
"This is just a restaurant. Why would it be chaotic?”
Chen Xuanyi asked in surprise.
Eating and drinking?
"What are those girls for?" Chen Yantang asked blankly.”
"There are people who accompany us to drink, there are people who perform, and there are people who promote."”
Chen Yantang looked guilty.
I'm sorry, Master. I'm not pure enough and misunderstood you. In the future, I'll be your servant.
Chen Xuanyi pulled Chen Yantang and said mysteriously," This isn't the most interesting place. Follow me, I'll bring you to a really interesting place.”
Of course, this is just a place to eat. Am I here to eat? Looking at Chen Yantang, who seemed to be a little restrained, he thought,'Kid, I'll let you broaden your horizons tonight.'
Chen Yantang shook his head with a bitter smile as he watched his master shuttle through the restaurant like a regular customer. He found a small door and walked in. Was this really his master who had not left the mountain for a few years?
The two of them passed through the small door. Behind them were rows of small courtyards. Finally, they stopped outside a courtyard. The plaque on the courtyard door read: Green Cloud Xiaolou.
The courtyard door was open, and two bright red lanterns hung. Inside the courtyard, there was a winding stream and flowing wine cups, which were brightly lit.
A young gatekeeper of about sixteen or seventeen years old was guarding the entrance of the courtyard. He was looking at the two of them with a scrutinizing gaze.
"I'm Chen Xuanyi. I've long heard of Miss Qing Yun's great name, so I've come to pay you a visit.”Chen Xuan spoke politely to the gatekeeper. A few years ago, when he came to Yangui Pavilion with his master, he took a glance at Qingyun from afar and felt that he was as graceful as a swan and as graceful as a dragon. These two phrases were very appropriate for Qingyun. Now that he had come down the mountain, he naturally wanted to taste what he wanted.
The Verdant Cloud Pavilion was the residence of Lady Verdant Cloud, the courtesan of Yangui Pavilion.
The opening fee here was a hundred spirit stones.
There were no less than a dozen courtesans in Swallow Return Pavilion, each with their own merits.
Lady Qing Yun belonged to the first class and was known as the master of poetry and zither.
Two people, two hundred spirit stones." The gatekeeper, who was used to seeing big shots, had a cold attitude.
Chen Xuanyi gritted his teeth and unwillingly took out two hundred spirit stones from his ring. He handed it to the gatekeeper with a pained expression, then turned to Chen Yantang and said seriously,""Remember to return this hundred spirit stones to me in the future!”
After collecting two hundred spirit stones, he let the two of them enter the courtyard.
Laughter and the sound of musical instruments could be heard from the courtyard. The selection of guests had already begun, but since the young man at the gate allowed him to enter, it meant that the courtyard was not reserved, but was for individual guests.
Those who came out to have fun were divided into two modes. One was to book the entire place, and the other was to be an individual guest.
If it was the former, Chen Xuanyi would be doomed to fail today.
The place where the Verdant Cloud Pavilion received guests was on the first floor. The bamboo curtain facing the courtyard was open, and a thin silk curtain was hung to block the peeping eyes from outside.
More than ten guests sat in the tavern, drinking, chatting, and admiring the plum blossoms.
A maid led Chen Xuan and the others in. Everyone turned their heads and looked at the two well-dressed and good-looking young men.
Chen Xuanyi's mind flashed with the rules he had heard about a few years ago. He tried to make his smile more refined and bowed to everyone.
"I am Chen Xuanyi, and this is my companion, Chen Yantang.”
Among the people present, there were cultivators from the sects. There were also itinerant martial artists in the Jianghu, and the rest were ordinary people and small officials in the city. Their statuses were neither high nor low.
Some people shifted their gazes away, some sized him up, and some smiled back.
Chen Xuanyi pulled Chen Yantang and sat down calmly. His eyes were glued to the Courtesan Belle, Miss Qing Yun, who was acting as the " commander."
Her face was full of spring, her eyes were beautiful, her fragrance was of five colors, and her charm was natural.
This woman was really nice…Chen Xuanyi, who had seen her once and could not forget her, was once again stunned.
Qing Yun had a tight grip on her temperament. This Qing Yun girl in front of him had the beauty and elegance of a young lady from a noble family. In terms of clothing, she had a tulle dress that women in this era did not dare to wear.
When Miss Qingyun became the magistrate, she was responsible for hosting the drinking game and was responsible for the atmosphere of the scene. This job was usually done by the talented courtesans. Ordinary women could not do it because it required extremely high literary cultivation.
The drinking game could not be separated from some poetry, which happened to be what Chen Xuan wanted.
In terms of poetry, it's not that I'm targeting anyone, but everyone here is trash.
"Master, why don't we leave?”
Chen Yantang, who was sitting opposite him, tried to persuade him with a bitter face. When had he ever been to such a place? He was very flustered.
If outsiders were to find out that the Third Prince of the Great Chen Empire was visiting brothels, not to mention anything else, his father would probably be able to capture him from the Imperial City and hang him up for ten years.
"What are you afraid of?"
Chen Xuanyi glanced at him and said indifferently.
At this moment, a thin old man in a black robe pushed open the door and entered.
Everyone in the room looked over. After the black-robed old man entered the room, he casually swept his gaze over and was suddenly stunned and froze on the spot.
"Sect Leader Chen, what a coincidence. You're here to eat too?”
"Elder Ma, what are you doing?"
"Haha, I'm here to eat too.”
Chen Xuanyi and Elder Ma looked at each other. Neither of them had expected to meet in such a place. The atmosphere was extremely awkward.
Chen Yantang covered his face at the side. Fortunately, he did not see Vice City Lord Lin, who knew him. Otherwise, he would even have the heart to die.
"You two know each other." Qing Yun asked softly.
This old man was Elder Ma of the Hunyuan Sect. Chen Xuanyi smiled." We've met a few times."”
……
The drinking game continued, and Chen Yantang kept pouring wine and drinking silently to lower his presence. As for Elder Ma, he did not drink, but he could not continue a single line of poetry. He was despised by everyone.
No matter what your identity was, everyone had only one identity in common, and that was the knight-errant with a ladle.
Elder Ma really didn't know what was going on. He was already so old. Why did he come to join in the fun? Was the Courtesan Belle someone you could sleep with just because you wanted to? Chen Xuanyi was secretly pleased. Although the matter of forcefully buying his sect was in the past, the two of them were not considered friends.
Chen Xuanyi did not take a fancy to any of the people in the room. The only one who had some fighting strength was a handsome young man in a sky-blue robe. His words were humorous and he was quite talented. He occupied the limelight in this happy scene and made Miss Qingyun cover her mouth and laugh from time to time.
The young man in the sky-blue robe raised his wine cup and took a sip. He said in a clear voice,"This time, why don't we use Lady Qing Yun as the topic for the drinking game? Everyone can write a poem. There's no limit to the topic, but there's only one rule. The name of Lady Qing Yun must be included in the poem.”
Just as everyone was about to object, they saw Miss Qing Yun smiling and saying,""Young Master, please."
"The wine in the porcelain bottle has gone down the blue clouds, and I'm thinking that I'm lucky to see you."
" This..." Someone was shocked. Who would be able to follow up with this sentence?
"Wonderful, wonderful. I'm ashamed of my inferiority."
"Brother Zhao is truly a genius.”
One by one, no one could match up.
Lady Qing Yun's eyes sparkled as she stared at Young Master Zhao.
Judging from her expression and subtle movements, Qingyun had a good impression of this Zhao guy and admired his talent.
Soon, it was Chen Xuanyi's turn. He raised his wine cup and looked at Qing Yun with tenderness in his eyes.
"I see how charming Qing Yun is."
Chen Xuanyi's magnetic voice rang out in the hall. Everyone was stunned when they heard it. They thought that you had some good poems. I think Qingyun is not only charming, but also charming!!!
After hearing this, Lady Qing Yun smiled slightly. In such an occasion, there were countless people who praised her like this. This poem was really nothing.
Chen Xuanyi downed the wine in his cup and said boldly,""I saw how charming Qing Yun was, so I expected Qing Yun to be like this when he saw me!!!”
Qing Yun's eyes lit up when he heard this. Compared to Young Master Zhao's poem, this line,'I see how charming Qing Yun is, I expect Qing Yun to see me like this.'Not only was he praising himself, but there was also an aura that said that he was the only one who could do it.
Qing Yun stared at Chen Xuanyi, who had finished reciting the poem and sat down. His eyes were filled with tenderness. After a simple summary of tonight's selection event, Qing Yun stood up gracefully, curtsied, and said gently,"This little girl is a little tired. I'll take my leave first.”
The event was officially over.
Next, if Hua Kui Niangzi took a fancy to someone, she would let the servant leave him behind and lead him into the house.
If they didn't like it, the servant would send them off and start the next round of selection.
Everyone waited with both anticipation and apprehension. Time passed bit by bit. After half an incense stick of time, a maid walked over and said in a delicate voice,
"My Wifey invites Young Master Chen to come in for tea.”
The customers shook their heads in pity and sighed. Some of them smiled and congratulated Chen Xuanyi.
Chen Xuanyi had a smile on his face, looking like a victor. Compete in poetry? Humph, is there a dimensional reduction attack?
Seeing that Chen Xuanyi was about to stride into the inner room of the Qingyun Courtesan Belle, Chen Yantang could not sit still anymore. If Third Senior Sister knew that he and his master were really visiting a brothel, she would really skin him alive.
He quickly got up and pulled Chen Xuanyi, who was about to enter the house, and whispered,""Master, if you continue like this, I'm really going to tell Nan Xiang Shijie.”
Chen Xuanyi paused for a moment. However, he remembered that he was the Sect Master of Taixuan Sect, so he did not need to be afraid of his own disciple. Gritting his teeth, he turned around and pushed Chen Yantang's hand away. Glaring at him, he said," Don't talk too much about adult matters. You can book a room in Yangui Building tonight. We will return to Taixuan Sect tomorrow."”
After saying that, he no longer paid attention to Chen Yantang and turned around to enter the inner room of the Qingyun Courtesan Belle. Chen Yantang was left in a mess in the hall…
