Chapter 487 Entering the Black Shop
After these words, all the women were quiet.

Yun Shaoyang's expression gradually became serious. He looked at the eloquent woman in front of these dancers. She was confident and optimistic.At this moment, her body seemed to be coated with a layer of golden light, which made Yun Shaoyang unable to look away.

"Why can't we choose our own lives? Why do we have to depend on men to live?" What she said was so avant-garde that all women exploded.What she said was right, but she couldn't accept these women who were deeply ingrained in ethics. ;So, many people began to ask: "How can we live without being attached to men?"

"Women can't show their faces, only those in the brothel can."

... all kinds of talking.

Ye Qingchi stretched out his hand to stop them, and then asked: "Yes, I know that due to the law, we can't make money and live like men, but if you are given a chance to choose, you can live like men, would you like it?"

After a long silence, someone began to say: "Yeah, you don't know, I have a cousin who is married to a well-dressed beast, who goes out to drink and gamble every day, and beats her when she comes back. Is such a person worth entrusting for life?"

Because there are too many tragedies for women, many people have resonated with them.

Then a weak voice said: "I am willing." Then more and more voices said: "I am willing."

"Well, girls, I will open a women's hall in the north of the city in the near future. Any woman who wants to be free can go in. In our women's hall, we will teach people to practice martial arts to strengthen their bodies, and we will also teach them poetry and etiquette. The important thing is that in the future I will discuss some business dealings. At that time, women can earn money to support themselves. Moreover, she is free, free to choose a husband, free to marry, and free in personality. Are you willing to come?"

"I am willing." "I am willing too." "I am tired of fighting all day in this prince's mansion."

Ye Qingchi looked at these women who longed for him, and said silently in his heart: "I will do my best to help the women here."

When it was completely dark, Ye Qingchi left Prince Ning's Mansion.Yun Shaoyang insisted on sending her back.Ye Qingchi said: "You are a body of a thousand gold, you should go back."

Yun Shaoyang said: "I'm not so delicate. The women's hall you mentioned today is really good. If I were a woman, I would go in."

Ye Qingchi frowned slightly: "I don't know if the queen mother's reward is big or not. I have not discussed this matter with Yufeng, so I decided on my own. I don't know if he will be angry?"

"If he is not willing, I will pay you to build this women's hall, as long as you are happy."

Ye Qingchi smiled, and was about to refuse when he suddenly heard a familiar voice from a distance: "No matter what you do, I will support you."

When he looked up, he saw Qi Yufeng coming to pick her up alone with a lantern.Ye Qingchi was extremely moved. Such a noble son actually cared about others one day.Ye Qingchi ran over in a hurry, surprised: "Why are you here?"

"I don't trust you, so let's take a look." As he spoke, he patted Ye Qingchi's head.

Seeing the intimate actions of the two, Yun Shaoyang felt a little lonely suddenly.In the past, he would have rushed to the group to be sandwiched between the two, and let Ye Qingchi grab it, but seeing such a scene, Yun Shaoyang suddenly felt that he was so lonely.He turned around and left silently.

When Ye Qingchi turned his head, he only saw a figure going away, he opened his mouth and wanted to call him, but after thinking about it, forget it.He is such an adult, it should be nothing.

……

The night was as cool as water, Ye Qingchi and Qi Yufeng were walking side by side on the way home, feeling the breezy night, Qi Yufeng took a deep breath and said: "I never thought that one day, we would walk on the street like this?"

"Really? It seems that you have liked me for a long time."

"Yes, it's a pity that I can't protect you, nor can I protect your home." With bright eyes, he suddenly turned to look at Ye Qingchi, "But, I can give you a home." Got it, Ye Qingchi is not stupid, so he naturally knew that he married her.However, she always felt that something was wrong now.

Qi Yufeng looked at her expression of embarrassment, sighed and said: "But, now I am not even a young master. I used to have a lot of money, and thought that I would be able to eat and drink for the rest of my life, but I didn't expect that such an unbreakable fortress, which I thought was so impregnable, would be in the future. Others see it as just an egg shell that cannot withstand any wind and rain. With a little force, the wine jug shattered. It was only at this moment that I saw clearly that I was as small as a grain of sand between heaven and earth. I couldn’t change anything , can only float away with the wind.”

"Don't be so pessimistic." Ye Qingchi explained, "A grain of sand falling into the water will turn into a pearl. If it falls in the desert, it can cause a sandstorm. Therefore, even if it is gravel, as long as you work hard, you can still change it. All of this. Even if it cannot change everything, it is enough to shake the earth, mountains and rivers."

"Thank you, Qing Chi." Listening to her comfort, Qi Yufeng said quietly, "Do you know why Empress Dowager Xiao called me to Beijing?"

Ye Qingchi shook his head.

"Because our Qi family is a family of genius doctors, there are many elixir and miraculous medicines passed down from generation to generation in the family. Although some of them have been lost, they can only be found in ancient books. However, this is the craftsmanship of our Qi family after all. Empress Dowager Xiao has recently aged due to her appearance. So we want the imperial physician of our Qi family to refine her a medicine that prolongs her life and preserves her beauty."

Ye Qingchi asked curiously, "Is there really such a medicine?"

"Yes. I read an ancient book when I was a child. It said that Zhao Feiyan used a kind of ice machine pill made by a miracle doctor to be beautiful. She is in her 30s and her skin is still like a baby's."

This is the first time Ye Qingchi has heard that the cosmetics she saw in the modern age can maintain good skin, but if they can turn their 40s into seventeen or eighteen, it can only be plastic surgery.

Qi Yufeng sighed: "However, those are ancient books, and the refining techniques have long been lost. Empress Dowager Xiao insisted on forcing my uncle to refine them."

Ye Qingchi suddenly thought of it: "She is taking people as hostages to threaten your uncle."

"Not entirely. She might want me to refine it for her. Or, the uncle who will succeed me in the future, Empress Dowager Xiao, has a very deep palace, and I can't guess her thoughts for a while. However, I can be sure that , this time we come to the capital, we must be careful, she must have some ulterior secret."

Ye Qingchi changed the subject: "Then we must be more cautious in recruiting troops."

The next day, Ye Qingchi got up early in the morning, just opened the door and stretched, when he saw Qi Yufeng standing at the door smiling and looking at her, his eyes were gentle and handsome.Ye Qingchi greeted embarrassingly: "What are you doing looking at me? Is there something dirty on my face?"

Qi Yufeng came over, patted her on the head, and said: "Aren't you going to build a women's hall? I'll give you the other courtyard in the back. Today I have hired a group of laborers to pack things in the back. You can watch it at home." .”

Ye Qingchi smiled slightly: "Since you have already found someone, it doesn't make sense for me to stare at him. I will go out with you today."

"Do you know where I'm going?"

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be a dilapidated restaurant on the outskirts of the city when we entered Beijing.

"The one who knows me is Qingchi. I can't hide anything from you."

The two looked at each other and smiled, full of tacit understanding.Qi Yufeng prepared a carriage, and the two sat in it and went to the outskirts of the city.

The terrain here is steep and the location is remote. If you can build a stronghold and then hide soldiers among the people, that would be great.

Qi Yufeng brought a large amount of banknotes with him, so he had no choice but to negotiate with the shopkeeper.

The two got off the carriage, only to find that the door was open, but there was no customer.Qi Yufeng felt a little strange, so he said to Ye Qingchi: "You go behind me." The two entered the room, but found that there was no waiter to say hello, only a yawning boss at the counter dialing the abacus.Seeing the two of them, he didn't even lift his eyes.

Ye Qingchi also felt that something was wrong, the tables, chairs and benches here were covered with thick dust, as if no one had lived there for a long time.And some things were broken, and no one tidied them up.

Qi Yufeng said to the shopkeeper: "Hello, is the boss here? I want to buy this shop?"

The shopkeeper pointed to the top, Qi Yufeng and the two felt strange, and at the same time they looked up, a large net bag covered their hood.Ye Qingchi stretched out his hand and was about to strike with his sword.Qi Yufeng suddenly stopped her and said, "Don't do anything yet."

The shopkeeper circled them around, and then looked Qi Yufeng up and down, and saw that he was dressed gorgeously, the jade belt was very beautiful, and even the sachet on his body was extremely delicate.He clicked his tongue and said, "A big fat sheep came today."

Qi Yufeng struggled and said: "You are a black shop? Can you trap the two of us by yourself?"

"I'm alone, you think I'm stupid." The shopkeeper clapped his hands, and immediately came out a few helpers.He said to those helpers: "Let me take care of it, I'll go find our boss."

After a while, a man with a big knife came over. He sat on the table and said to Qi Yufeng and the two: "Hurry up and write a letter to your family to redeem him with money."

"No need, no need, I have money on me." Qi Yufeng hurriedly took out a stack of bank notes and said, "Do you think this money is enough?" The boss's eyes lit up immediately, and he ordered the shopkeeper, "Go and get it."

So the shopkeeper came over and took the money and handed it to the boss. The boss was furious, put down his big knife and started counting the money, and the counting became quieter and quieter. Without raising his head, he ordered: "Kill this little boy!" , the girl stays."

As soon as his neck was cold, the boss felt something was wrong, and when he turned his head, he saw Ye Qingchi holding the Ice Jade Soul Sword on his neck, with a look of contempt on his face.
