Uncle Nine

Chapter 170: Do You Really Treat My Young Master as a Wretch?
Some places, after all, can not go.It doesn't matter if you don't pass, you just have to save your life, that's all.

But no matter how dark it is, there will be dawn.

In the end of everything, there will be retribution.

When Zhao Shuo got up, Xia Yu was still sleeping peacefully.I woke up once in the middle of the night, and fell asleep again in the early morning.When she got up, she couldn't help but smell the fragrance on her lips.

Lifting his lips and smiling slightly, he left quietly.

It's time to get ready to go up.

Xia Yu slept until dawn. Apart from having nightmares, her sleep quality was usually excellent.I don't know when I had this problem, the first thing I did when I woke up was to touch the people around me.

The side was empty, and Zhao Shuo left.

Opening her sleepy eyes, Xia Yu stared blankly at the empty pillow.

Zhao Laojiu is indeed a cat.

The weather is good today, it's time to go out for a walk, otherwise she will be locked up in Prince Rui's mansion, she will almost get moldy.Outside, when Zhao Shuo left, he ordered people to bring out that sycophant parrot as well.At this moment, they are singing in the corridor: Master is a good man——

Going out from the back door comfortably, with Xunmei, Anu, and Luohua walking together, Xia Yu doesn't have to worry about anything.

After a snowfall, the Ten Mile Long Street in Beijing seems to be recovering again.The earlier riots and fighting gradually faded out of people's sight and became part of the memory, being gradually forgotten and ignored.

People live to live.Not to wait to die, but to live.

Xia Yu bought candied haws, one for each person, Xunmei looked at the candied haws in her hand, and didn't dare to say anything for a long time.She has never eaten this thing since she grew up, and she doesn't know what it tastes like.

"Anu, you have one too." Xia Yu stuffed the candied haws into Anu's hand.

Anu frowned, "Anu doesn't need this, Anu's hand only holds a sword."

Xia Yu smiled, "I treat you as a brother, that's why I treat you to eat candied haws."

Hearing this, Anu raised his eyes to stare at her, then suddenly bowed his head, "Anu is a sinful slave, and dare not call you brother and brother."

"I said yes, that is. All brothers in the world, you saved me, you are a brother who has died. Eat!" Xia Yu looked at her with a smile.

Taking a deep breath, Anu hesitated for a long time before accepting it, "Thank you, sir." She said very lightly, very lightly.Hitting her body and imprinting the mark of a sinful slave, no matter who, even the lowest slave, did not treat her as a human being.After a long time, even Anu herself forgot that she is a human being.

No dignity, no ego, not even a name from birth.

She is just a sin slave, an object so despicable that she can be trampled on and slaughtered by others.

If Zhao Shuo hadn't brought her out of the alley, she would have died by now.If you don't starve to death, you should freeze to death, and if you don't freeze to death, you will be killed.

The fate of a sin slave is that life is worse than death other than death.

Holding the candied haws in his hand, Anu finally had faint ripples in his eyes.Looking up at the back of Xia Yu walking forward, that slender woman has a heart of a child.

Although she is a woman with a slender figure, she has a big belly and can tolerate all the injustices in the world.

But he also hates evil like hatred, even if he loves money, he can get it in a proper way.

Suddenly, Xia Yu stopped in her tracks, her pupils shrank suddenly, and she stared fixedly at the high-hanging gold-lettered signboard.Heart skipped a beat in horror.These three words had lingered in her mind countless times. She didn't know the words, but forced herself to remember them stroke by stroke.

Zhao Shuo wrote it once, and she firmly remembered it.

That's right, these three words.

Full of flowers!
Feather eyelashes raised in amazement, holding the hand holding the candied haws, the veins on the back of the hand slightly bulged.How—is it a coincidence?Is it really full of flowers?It's really full of flowers!
Luo Hua couldn't read, so when she saw Xia Yu stopped, she couldn't help but look up, "What's wrong?"

Xunmei gasped, then closed her eyes, isn't the young master illiterate?How can you stare at the signboard, can't you recognize it?After thinking about it, Xunmei laughed hurriedly, "Young master, let's go, there is nothing to see."

Xia Yu looked cold, "Xunmei, it's Huamanlou, right! Don't lie to me, I can recognize these three words."

Hearing this, Xunmei lowered her eyebrows, "I just don't want the young master to bring up the old things again."

After finally getting out, but having to suffer again, Xunmei naturally couldn't bear it.

Luo Hua was slightly taken aback, staring at the three words above in astonishment, so this is Huamanlou?It's a pity that she is just like Xia Yu, illiterate, and can't recognize the words on the top, only to see three golden ones.

"Go in and have a look!" Xia Yu let out a long breath.

"Little Lord?"

"Son!"

Three low calls, in exchange for Xia Yu's nonchalant smile, "What are you doing? Am I the kind of person who can't take it or let it go?" She curled her lips and walked in swaggeringly.

Looking at the facade outside, Xia Yu thought that the place had almost opened for business.But during the day, the girls should be sleeping, so there shouldn't be any guests or servants inside.

Sure enough, when I went in, it was empty inside.When I looked up, there were still dense red silk threads, and the bells were hanging from it as before.

Luo Hua swallowed her saliva, looked up at the red thread on top, her eyes were filled with fear.

Xia Yu stood in the lobby and looked around. The furnishings here were different from the Huamanlou in Daizhou.However, the furnishings here seem a bit strange, and some things are placed rather abruptly, as if they were done casually.For example, the carpet in the center of the hall is actually a high-quality Persian carpet, which is not a good thing that ordinary people can afford.

How could an ordinary brothel use such a good thing.

What's more, it's still in the lobby, a place where everyone can walk, isn't it a waste?

The sound of fine footsteps came slowly, accompanied by the slight ringing of the bell around his waist.Everyone followed and saw a graceful figure walking towards her, a smiling face with exquisite make-up, and a pair of seductive eyes, full of charming bewitchment.Walking and walking, enchanting and indescribable.

"Guest officials are here, what advice do you have?" The woman's voice is like a yellow warbler coming out of the valley.

Xia Yu smiled, "I haven't seen you for a few days, and Ying Niang is getting more and more beautiful. I think all the girls who are full of flowers are beautiful. It's a pity that I didn't come by chance, and I didn't get to see one or two." She stepped forward comfortably , that sloppy look is simply natural, the unrestrained unrestrainedness exuded from the bones, "However, it is also a blessing to see you, Yingniang."

With her fingertips, she gently lifted Yingniang's delicate jaw, and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of her lips.

Yingniang tenderly held Xia Yu's fingertips, "So it's you, son!"

"I'm thinking about you every day, I'm afraid Yingniang, you have a lot of people in your heart, right?" Xia Yu smiled, and reached out to caress Yingniang's heart, "I said, right?"

Yingniang giggled, and suddenly turned around and sat on the table, crossed her legs, turned half of her body and looked at Xia Yu charmingly. Accept it?"

Xia Yu clasped her hands behind her back, "Why don't you smell that domestic flowers are not as fragrant as wild flowers?"

"It's just that I didn't expect Miss Xia to have such a hobby. It's a pity that I, a girl in Huamanlou, only serve men and not women." That's enough, you are not welcome here, please!"

"Have you ever heard a saying that it's easier to invite God than to send God away?" Xia Yu jumped up and sat on the table, with one leg curled up and the other hanging in the air, looking like a rascal, " On the ground in the capital, open such a big brothel, have you asked me what I mean?"

Ying Niang sneered, "Miss Xia is so young, she has such a big voice!"

"I'm not old, but I just have more brothers. There is no gang in Jianghu that I can't get rid of. For example, Eucommia, the leader of the Jiangnan waterway, eats both black and white. Liu Chongyan, the leader of the Justice League in the north, and Tianxia The head of the beggar gang of the largest gang! Those are all my brothers! If you don’t believe me, you can ask around to find out my name, Xia Yu.” Xia Yu looked coldly at Yingniang’s changing expression.

These are all names in the Jianghu, and indeed each of them is a remarkable figure.

Everyone knows that if you offend the government, you can't offend the people of the rivers and lakes. Once you get entangled, it will be endless for generations.Moreover, people in the Jianghu do not follow the rules, staring at you day and night, making it difficult for you to move forward, driving you crazy, and driving you to nowhere.

That kind of torture is what makes life worse than death.

The most frightening thing is that people in the Jianghu talk about morality. Sometimes no matter how much money you have, people in the Jianghu will not accept this.Even if you are in a high cabinet, if they want to find you and kill you, they will be hard to guard against.

"What on earth do you want to do?" Yingniang rolled her eyes coldly, her face not easily revealing.

Xia Yu looked around, "It's nothing, it's just a protection fee. Take people's money to eliminate disasters with people!"

Ying Niang is still hesitating.

"I also know a lot of people in the Ministry of Justice. Mr. Meng, Minister of the Ministry of Justice, and Shen Hao, the servant of the Ministry of Justice, right? I am a regular visitor to the prison of the Ministry of Justice. Shall I take you there?" Xia Yu blinked her big eyes and looked at it with a smile. She said, "The rats there are really big, and the cockroaches are all gangs. Do you want to watch the cockroaches fight?"

Her complexion tightened, Yingniang stared at Xia Yu in disbelief, and hesitantly took out a bank note from her sleeve and handed it over, "Is that enough?"

Xia Yu took it leisurely and contentedly, "Not bad, not bad, she is a good girl who understands the general situation." She jumped down from the table with an innocent smile on her face, "Since you gave it to me, then I will not be disrespectful! Another day I'll come again!"

"Do you really know people from the Ministry of Justice?" Yingniang asked.

"What do you think?" Xia Yu happily put the banknotes into her bag, with a face full of obsession with money, she really looked like a greedy and lustful local snake.

Yingniang smiled, "Everyone who comes is a guest, since you are here, why don't I treat you, I don't know if Miss Xia will reward you, drink a glass of water and wine before leaving. Let's have a good talk."

Keep her?

Luo Hua opened her mouth, and was about to stop it, but Xun Mei grabbed her wrist and motioned her to keep silent.

The young master is not short of money, even if he is short of money, he wouldn't be able to do this kind of thing.What's more, just now, Xia Yu said something, which made Xunmei more certain that Xia Yu might have her own plan.

Xia Yu smiled, "Okay."

A table, a jug of good wine, a few side dishes, the dishes are good.

Luo Hua stared at the small dishes and the jar of wine, praying in her heart, not to get any other things on her, otherwise—her palms were wet, she wished she could taste them for Xia Yu first, lest Xia Yu Yu accidentally hit the trick.

Yingniang poured a glass of wine for Xia Yu, "Our Huamanlou has just come to the capital, and we are not familiar with the place where we live. I hope that Miss Xia can take care of her in the future."

"It's easy to say, easy to say!" Xia Yu lowered her eyebrows and looked at the wine in her glass.

"Our wine that is full of flowers is all good wine." Yingniang smiled.

Xia Yu frowned, sniffed lightly with the tip of her nose, but directly in front of Yingniang, she poured the wine in the cup on the ground, "This daughter's red wine has only been cellared for three years, what kind of good wine is it?"

Yingniang was startled, and her eyes widened instantly, "You?"

"If it hasn't been stored in the cellar for more than ten years, it can't enter my mouth." Xia Yu sneered, "I've drank the Qibuzui, but it's just mediocre. If you have any good wine, just bring it up. There is nothing wrong with people, but they are greedy for drinking."

"Okay." Yingniang stood up, "I'll get it for you."

Xia Yu nodded, "I'll wait."

Seeing Yingniang leave, Xunmei stepped forward quickly, "Young master, I think this place is very strange, I'm afraid it's not a good place."

Luo Hua nodded again and again, "It's not just a strange thing, I feel chills running down my spine. Young master, let's go quickly!"

"How can I leave before I have had a drink?" Xia Yu had her own plan, "Xunmei, write down the terrain here, and draw a topographic map for me when you go back. I always feel that this place is not that simple. It's an indescribable feeling." After thinking about it, she took out a cotton swab from her small bag and stuffed it into her mouth.

"Young master, you—" Xunmei was about to ask, but she saw Yingniang slowly approaching with a white jade jug.

"This wine is a vintage wine, you will definitely like it." Yingniang poured the wine.

Xia Yu took it with a smile, "It really is a good wine." She took a shallow sip, "Unfortunately, I can't drink more when I'm out. Okay, that's it, I'll take my leave first, and come back another day. Remember next time , find some girls for me! I like the girls with thin waists the most, understand?"

Yingniang lowered her eyes and smiled slightly, with a respectful and gentle expression on her face.

Walking out of Huamanlou leisurely and contentedly, Xia Yu went far away, suddenly changed her expression and rushed to a teahouse, quickly took out the cotton block in her mouth and put it into an empty teacup in the teahouse.Xun Mei hurriedly poured a glass of water and handed it over, Xia Yu rinsed her mouth and spit out all the tea.

Luo Hua's face turned pale, "Young master, young master? You, what is this, what's wrong?"

Anu stepped forward, his eyes turned cold, "It was poisoned."

"You really treat me like a bastard, and use this kind of tricks to hang around in front of me. I have been playing with medicine 800 years ago, bah!" Xia Yu handed the cup to Anu, "Go back and hand it over. Give it to Old Man Xin to see what kind of poison it is."
