Chapter 299: Humans Need It, So Does the Qin!
beautiful women," Xiao Yuge said with a curl of her lips."This, no explanation needed. You'll understand later." Qian Tingxuan had a mysterious look on his face."By the way, I heard you had a sweethea..."The rules of Qinfeng Pavilion apply to everyone who enters. Since you are all here in Qinfeng Pavilion, you must abide by our rules. As the previous speaker explained clearly, whoever plays the phoenix-cry melody tonight wins the moon. Tonight, the moon belongs to this young master!"
Not yet Come on, are you blaming her again
Xiao Yu's song looked at him with a puzzled expression, but she just happened to see the hint of mockery in his eyes. Was he playing with her
The man who had offered a million seemed to understand the rules of Qingfeng Pavilion as well. After taking a long look at Xiao Yuge, he turned and left with a flick of his sleeve. The crowd also knew that seeing the Moonless Young Master was hopeless, so they all sighed and left.
"May I ask, young master, your name and family" The leader laughed as he stepped forward, surprisingly polite.
"My surname is Xiao."
"It's Young Master Xiao, the private room has already been prepared. Please, Young Master Xiao!" The head servant had someone bring up the Phoenix Cryqin, then bowed and led Xiao Yuge upstairs.
Xiao Yu's song was invited into a very elegantly decorated room. The strings of beads, like water curtains, jingled with the wind, creating a pleasant sound. The walls were adorned with paintings by renowned artists, and even the flower vase was exquisite. It was clear that the owner of this house had put a lot of thought into its decoration.
"Young Master Xiao, please wait a moment. Young Master Wu Yue will be here shortly!" At that, the host gestured to an attendant who put down the qin and respectfully retreated, closing the door behind them.
Although Xiao Yuge really wanted to take the Fengming Qin with her, this was someone else's territory. Leaving like this would be impolite. Besides, that person was the renowned Wuyue Gongzi of the martial world. Even Leiting Pavilion respected him. He wouldn't do anything too underhanded, right Let him come and see what tricks he has up his sleeve.
At that moment, Xiao Yuge was drawn to one of the paintings. She walked over curiously but couldn't help but be stunned, for the person in the painting was her, and it was painted by Qian Yi'an!
How could Qian Yi'an's paintings leak outside the palace And the person in the painting is wearing women's clothing!
"Seems like Young Master Xiao has been captivated by the people in this painting" A crisp and clear voice came from behind.
Xiao Yuge turned her head abruptly, and saw the Wuyue Gongzi, dressed in a new robe, walking gracefully into the room. With his every step, a fragrance followed him, intoxicating one's heart and mind.
"Rose dew, with a hint of cold sandalwood. The Moonless Young Master indeed has extraordinary taste!" Xiao Yuge, who understood pharmacology, naturally knew about fragrance blending as well. However, few people combined these two scents together, let alone achieving such a refreshing and pleasant aroma.
"It seems Young Master Xiao is a connoisseur." Gongzi Wuyue walked to Xiao Yuge's side and gently touched the figure in the painting: "Young Master Xiao, don't you find her familiar" His gaze towards Xiao Yuge was as if saying, admit it, I know it's you.
"I wonder where the Master of the Moonless Night got this painting from" Xiao Yuge asked back instead of answering. As far as she knew, Qian Yi'an wouldn't let her portrait leave the palace.
"This was obtained from a friend. At the time, I thought the painting of the woman was breathtaking. So, I repeatedly begged him, and he reluctantly agreed. Never did I expect that one day, the woman in the painting would actually stand alive before Wuyue! Wuyue truly is fortunate to have lived three lifetimes!" Wuyue Gongzi looked at Xiao Yuge's eyes, full of astonishment.
"So, you recognized me outside" Xiao Yuge stopped pretending. Anyway, her disguise as a man wasn't very successful. Every time she went out, she was seen through. It's just that she couldn't figure it out. How could Qian Yi'an have such a capable friend outside the palace Wasn't it said that Qian Yi'an never left the palace Which rumors were true after all
"Unexpectedly, the lady herself is more beautiful and moving than in the portrait."
"Alright, since you've already guessed my identity, I might as well be straightforward. I only desire the Phoenix-Singing Qin." She had seen a man like Qian Tingxuan, peerless and extraordinary. It seemed to her that other men were simply unworthy of his attention.
"Don't you find Master Wuyue undesirable" At that moment, Master Wuyue slowly removed the mask from his face.
In white and with black hair, untied and flowing freely in the wind, his refined features were like a painting. His entire aura leaned towards a delicate and feminine beauty. Just wearing a simple white robe, he could be worthy of the phrase "A man as beautiful as jade among strangers, unparalleled in the world." The faint smile on his face, coupled with those seemingly gentle and affectionate phoenix eyes, indeed made him worthy of being called a beautiful man.
However, with Qian Tingxuan as a precedent, no matter how beautiful the appearance is, it's just that in her eyes.
“There is no other gentleman in the world like Master Wuyue. How could I possibly dislike him It’s just that my heart isn’t in this, so how could I dare to provoke him” She didn't dare to provoke men at all. If Qian Tingxuan found out she was visiting Qingfeng Pavilion at night, who knows if he would lock her up with an iron chain
"Miss, are you afraid or worried about something" Without Moon Young Master was indeed a man who had seen the world for many years, he immediately saw through Xiao Yuge's thoughts.
“Ah, right. I'm afraid my husband will get angry, so I came to buy this qin today to give it to him!” Xiao Yuge had no choice but to make up a lie on the spot. Actually, it wasn't really a lie, after all, she did intend to give the qin to Qian Tingxuan.
"Husband Miss is married" Wuyue Gongzi's eyes showed a hint of surprise, followed by some disappointment: "I wonder which young master is so fortunate to marry such a good woman like the miss He must be a dragon among men!"
Xiao Yu Ge unconsciously rubbed her hair: "No, my husband is very ordinary."
"Is that so" Wuyue Gongzi stared at her, pointing to the painting before them. "This painting came from a friend of mine a few days ago. My friend said at the time that the maiden in the painting was unmarried. Since you are the woman in the painting, Wuyue dares to ask, when did you get married Or perhaps, you simply do not like Wuyue"
"No, no, I was just..." Xiao Yuge panicked a little. How could Qian Yi'an talk about her like this to outsiders
"It seems the young lady truly despises Wuyue." Wuyue Gongzi lowered his head dejectedly.
"Don't misunderstand me, I didn't mean to deceive you. I just..." What kind of joke is that She was a pure and innocent girl, how could she possibly come to a brothel
"Since the young lady doesn't mind Wu Yue, then can Wu Yue understand that the young lady is perhaps shy" Wu Yue's lips curled up slightly, taking a step forward and gently encircling Xiao Yuge's arm from behind. He leaned close to her ear: "Perhaps this is your first time here, you're not used to it yet. Once you get accustomed, you won't feel this way."
"You, you, you, what are you doing" The sudden breath on her back startled Xiao Yuge, who hastily pulled away his hand. Her face was flushed crimson, almost red all the way to her toes. It seemed this Qingfeng Pavilion wasn't a place she should have come to after all.ng Xuan's eyes looked at her strangely."Understood, sir."“Alright, I'm going to Nancun now. It seems like everyone around here is watching us. You guys can't stay here too long, or we might arouse sus...
