Meng Yue'er froze.
She had not expected that she had taken such an initiative, yet she was completely rejected by the other party.
Hua Manlou lowered his voice and said, "Brother Su, the Oiran personally invited you, and it didn't even cost money, are you just stupid?"
Su Shi looked at Chen Qingluan for a moment and said with a smile, "But I still have to get rid of the danger to people."
Chen Qingluan's face turned red and she pinched Su Shi's waist with hatred.
Meng Yue'er looked lost and shook her head, "In this case, it is me who has been presumptuous, but if Mr. Su comes again in the future, I will always be open to you."
After saying this, she seemed unwilling to stay long, and turned around and left the lobby.
Looking at that smooth back, Hua Manlou sighed, "What a waste."
Although Chen Qingluan was beautiful, she was not as delicate and beautiful as this Oiran girl.
Under the scrutiny of the crowd, he pulled Chen Qingluan out of the inn.
Hua Manlou looked at the wine glasses on the table, and for a moment, he still felt a little unreal.
"I can't believe I drink with Su Shi!"
"This Shengzi if Demonic path….. doesn't seem to be as scary as the rumors."
Hua Manlou revealed a slight smile.
The air felt cold and dead at this moment inside the originally bustling and noisy brothel.
Su Shi, really came to the Imperial Capital?
This is big news!
Chu Qi's face changed.
"No, this matter must be told to father as soon as possible!"
He didn't care about Scholar, who was sitting on the ground, and got up and walked out of Fengchun House.
In an instant, all the focal points were gone.
Only Hua Manlou was still drinking from the jug.
"A pot of muddy wine and a happy meeting?"1
(TLN: He was referring to the poem Su Shi had composed)
"What a talent!"
On the road.
Su Shi and Chen Qingluan walked side by side.
It is unknown if they forgot or what, but the two held hands and never let go.
After a long time, Chen Qingluan spoke, "Are you really not going to accept that Oiran invitation? This is an opportunity that many people have longed for."
Su Shi shook his head and said, "I have no interest in her."
This was the truth.
He had seen too many beauties.
Zhan Qingchen, Yun Qiluo, Chen Qingluan, Bai Qing... which one of them was not the best beauty in the world?
A smile swept across the bottom of Chen Qingluan's eyes, then hesitated and whispered, "Actually, I'm not as rough as Hua Manlou said."
"I know."
Su Shi nodded, "You look fierce on the surface, but you actually still have a feminine heart."
Chen Qingluan froze for a moment, "Why do you say that?"
Su Shi cleared his throat and said in a low voice, "Last time when I helped you heal, I noticed that you were wearing a pink heart underwent with a cute little rabbit embroidered on it."
"??"
Chen Qingluan's pretty face quickly turned red as she stammered, "You, you pervert! You really have impure intentions!"
Su Shi shrugged, "But you already took it off, I couldn't possibly not see it…."
"You still said that!"
Chen Qingluan was so embarrassed and angry that she raised her arm and snorted.
"Be careful, you are still injured ... don't hit me!"
Zhaotian Palace.
Feng Chaoge looked at the paper in her hand, her eyes, which were always calm, trembled slightly.
"Are you sure this poem is written by Su Shi?"
The female attendant nodded, "Definitely, Meng Yue'er said it was written by Su Shi himself, and the whole thing only took less than a stick of incense."
Who would have thought that the Oiran girl, sought after by millions, would become the ear of the palace?
Feng Chaoge was silent.
Generous, tragic, and soul-stirring.
In just a few dozen words, he had written about the rise and fall of history, and a kind of open-mindedness that sees things as a whole.
Are these really words that a young man could write?
"Right and wrong, success and failure are meaningless."
"But the green hills are still there, the sunset is red for a few times."
Even the strongest dynasties cannot avoid the vicissitudes of history, and in the end, they are just a talk for wine.
Only the green hills and the sunset can last forever.
Feng Chaoge was stunned for a long time and slowly sighed, "I didn't expect that in addition to his cultivation talent, he would have such outstanding literary skills."
The poetry by Li Mu Bai is not bad either.
But in comparison, whether it is patterns or thoughts, it is not at the same level as Su Shi.
"The number one scholar I have handpicked is still not comparable for someone of the Demonic path?"
There was some depression in Feng Chaoge's chest.
"Other than that, is there any other news?"
The female official said, "Although Su Shi came out as the winner, he refused Oiran Yue'er's invitation."
Feng Chaoge shook her head, "Su Shi is different from Chu Qi, a comfort woman will not be able to attract his eyes at all…"
This was completely expected of him.
He also did not expect to rely on a comfort woman to tie up Su Shi.
The female attendant hesitated for a moment and said, "Scholar Li ... has become very close to Chu Qi recently."
"When a scholar is popular, he will naturally be attracted by all parties."
Feng Chaoge said indifferently, "But what good is such a person to me if he is easily swayed?"
The female official lowered her head.
She knew that Li Mu Bai's future would stop here.
As a first-class scholar, he should have a promising future, but unfortunately he was too eager to get in line.
Forming a group for personal gain was something Her Majesty did not like.
Feng Chaoge looked at the poem in her hand.
"If I can have this child, why do I still have to work so hard?"
"Su Shi, what do you really want?"
It didn't even take a day, just a few hours, for the events at Fengchun House to spread throughout the Capital.
It was as if a thunderstorm had risen from the ground.
Like sharks smelling blood, all the forces could not contain their anxiety.
Su Shi was here!
His identity was too special.
He was the Shengzi of Demonic path and Hero of Mankind, clearly a rebel of the rebel group, yet he had been summoned by Her Majesty.
And the words he left behind at Fengchun House were widely circulated in the Capital, and were hailed by all literati and writers as a masterpiece.
Although most people had never met Su Shi.
But he has defeated scholars and become a legendary figure in the hearts of scholars.
"Success and failure are meaningless…."
"Such simple words, but at only twenty, he has such a worldview."
Hua Jinguan, a senior scholar from the Imperial Palace, exclaimed, "This person's talent is truly unrivaled in the world."
Others were also unabashed in their praise.
"My useless son is still dabbling in the obscene world, both at the same young age, but how can the difference be so great?"
"Tell Hua Manlou to hurry back and copy this poem to me five hundred times!"
Compared to the hustle and bustle of the outside world.
The atmosphere inside the Chen Residence was extremely calm.
Chen Wangchuan looked at the two people sitting in front of him and said in a deep voice, "So…"
"Why did you bring my daughter to the brothel?"
Su Shi: "...
1. The poem Su Shi quoted is from Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
A pot of muddy wine and a happy meeting means :
Reuniting with an old friend, no matter how bad the current situation is, is still something to be happy about. Because muddy wine is bad wine.
