Chapter 95: Cowardly the Princess?
"Take my words back, and...don't let me see you again."

The visitor looked blankly at the empty corridor, and weakly shouted: "His Royal Highness, Third Prince."

Lin Qingyue didn't know what happened to Qing Cang after she left, Lin Qingyue found Xiaotao after she left Beautyland, and the two drove to the west of the city in a carriage.

Compared with the east of the city where Lin Qingyue and the others live, the west of the city is more mixed with dragons and snakes, where three religions and nine streams gather in one place, and it is also the place with the highest crime rate in Kyoto.

But it is precisely because of this unique environment that the west of the city has become a place where the tiger hides the dragon.

The person Lin Qingyue was looking for this time was a celebrity in the west of the city.

The teahouse that Xiao Linze mentioned was called Yishun Teahouse. As a teahouse, the name was really not elegant, and the tea drinkers in the teahouse were not literati.

Most of the people who come here to drink tea are idlers who have nothing to do, so they pay a few copper coins for tea and listen to books here to amuse themselves.

Just as Lin Qingyue walked into the teahouse, a young man about twelve or thirteen years old greeted her with a flattering smile on his face.He said skillfully, "Does the guest officer want to drink tea or come to inquire about news?"

Lin Qingyue looked at the young boy in front of her, and said with a smile, "What about drinking tea? What about asking for news?
The boy rolled his eyes and said seriously: "You need to pay five Wen for drinking tea, and a pot of hot tea comes with a plate of peanuts. If you want to inquire about news, you need to pay fifteen Wen, and you will get a pot of hot tea for free." A plate of peanuts."

Lin Qingyue smiled suddenly and asked, "It's both hot tea and peanuts, why is there such a big difference in price?"

The young man chuckled and said, "To tell you the truth, the hot tea and peanuts are worth five Wen, and the extra ten Wen is the money for us to spread the word and rank you."

"Oh?" Lin Qingyue raised her brows slightly, and said with a smile, "So there are quite a few people who come here to inquire about the news?"

"That's natural!" The boy pouted proudly towards the right back and said, "Did you see those people sitting over there? They all came to inquire with Bao. If you want to inquire about information, young master, you must hurry up." It's time, Bao Inquirer has a very bad temper, he will leave as soon as the sun sets, if you can't get any news, you can only ask for breakfast tomorrow, and if you come back tomorrow, you will have to pay another tea money."

Lin Qingyue glanced in the direction the young man was pointing at. Among the group of people were well-dressed people and some vicious people. When they gathered together, they looked like a microcosm of the West City.

"Since your place is a tea house, there should be private rooms, right?"

When Lin Qingyue just came here, she noticed that this teahouse has three floors in total, the first floor is the lobby, Lin Qingyue guessed that the remaining two floors should be used for other purposes.

When the young man heard Lin Qingyue mention the word 'Yajian', his eyes lit up instantly.

"Yes, there are, of course there are private rooms, but the price is a little more expensive."

A pot of hot tea and a plate of peanuts cost fifteen cents. Lin Qingyue had already defined this shop as a black shop in her heart, and she was ready to be slaughtered when she took the initiative to mention "Elegant Room".

"how much is it?"

The young man opened his five fingers slightly and waved them in front of Lin Qingyue.

"50 taels."

Lin Qingyue felt as if someone had shot an arrow in her heart, and she was in pain.

"What does 50 taels include?"

"A private room, a pot of hot tea, and a plate of peanuts."

The corner of Lin Qingyue's mouth twitched, feeling that the 50 taels seemed to buy air.

"Okay, let's lead the way."

The young man's face suddenly blossomed with joy, and he shouted into the teahouse: "A distinguished guest has arrived, one in the private room on the second floor!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes in the teahouse fell on Lin Qingyue almost at the same time.

Under the gaze of everyone, Lin Qingyue suddenly felt a lot of pressure.

The moment she stepped into the private room, Lin Qingyue felt relieved, and looked down the window with lingering fear.

The private room is worthy of being a private room, and the viewing effect is excellent. Standing in front of the window, you can have a panoramic view of everything below.The boy quickly served hot tea, but he didn't intend to leave.

Lin Qingyue thought that the young man wanted to ask for a reward, so she took out a piece of broken silver from her sleeve and threw it to the young man.The young man caught the silver accurately and put it into his arms deftly, but he still had no intention of leaving.

Lin Qingyue suddenly felt strange, and looked back at the young man behind her.

As soon as their eyes met, Lin Qingyue suddenly felt a shock in her heart.

The boy still looks like the boy before, but his eyes are no longer clear and innocent, and the dark light flowing in his eyes gives people an unfathomable feeling.

Lin Qingyue's eyes froze slightly, she took a step back and looked at the boy warily.

He asked sharply, "Who are you?"

The young man laughed, walked to the table and sat down, poured a cup of hot tea for himself in a natural way, squeezed a few peanuts from the plate with two fingers, rubbed off the peanut skins and threw them into himself mouth.

The action was done in one go, obviously a habitual offender.

While eating peanuts and sipping hot tea like no one else was watching, the young man looked up at Lin Qingyue with a smile and asked, "Do you know why the private room in this teahouse is so expensive?"

At the beginning, Lin Qingyue wanted a private room just to buy a clean room. When she heard that the private room cost 50 taels of silver, Lin Qingyue's first reaction was that this teahouse was a black shop. Now that I think about it, maybe this private room is expensive. Expensive.

Lin Qingyue glanced at the peanuts and tea that had bottomed out on the table, she couldn't tell the lie of 'excellent value for money', so she pursed her lips and said nothing.

Seeing that Lin Qingyue was silent, the young man smiled suddenly, brushed off all the remaining peanut skins on his hands, slowly raised his eyes to look at Lin Qingyue, and said: "Everything is fair in this world, those people below pay and pay for it." If you have less, of course you can only be selected, and if you pay more, you will naturally enjoy one-on-one service." The corner of the boy's mouth was raised slightly, showing a playful smile: "I like generous customers."

Lin Qingyue was startled for a moment, looking at the young man in front of her, she suddenly had a bold guess in her heart...

Lin Qingyue stared at the young man, and asked in a deep voice, "Are you just asking?"

Even Lin Qingyue herself felt that this conjecture was a bit outrageous, but the various strange behaviors of the young man since he broke into the house had to make Lin Qingyue think about it.

The corner of the young man's mouth was raised slightly, and he said with a smile: "The eyesight is not bad."

Lin Qingyue's pupils widened suddenly, and she was about to ask the boy about merchants when she was interrupted by the silent Xiao Linze.

"He's not just inquiring."

No?

Lin Qingyue's eyes were suddenly stained with anger, and Xiao Linze's reminder at this time showed that he was [-]% sure that the young man in front of him was not just asking for money.

Lin Qingyue thought about it carefully, and the young man did not admit that he was just 'inquiry'.

It's just that his calm and composed appearance affected Lin Qingyue's judgment, making her mistakenly think that the young man was just asking about it.

"You're not just asking, who are you?"

The boy froze while eating peanuts, and looked at Lin Qingyue with a somewhat astonished expression.

"You...see it?"

Lin Qingyue didn't want to go around in circles with the young man again, so she asked in a cold voice, "Who the hell are you? If you don't say anything else, don't blame me for being rude to you!"

The young man saw that Lin Qingyue was really angry, so he didn't pretend anymore, he stood up and apologized with a smile, "Don't be angry, my lord, I'm not inquiring, but my grandpa is inquisitive." The young man flattered Lin Qingyue with a smile : "Son, wait a moment, I'll go and call my grandpa over here."
