Chapter 141 Bad Men and Worse Men
Chapter 142 Bad Men and Worse Men
Li Fengxin hasn't had a good night's sleep for three days since she came back from Yanfei Tower.
During this period, whenever he closed his eyes, he would think of that crazy scene.
I think of that dazzling red dress, that dazzling beauty.
Thinking of the sadness in that song and the loneliness behind those eyes.
Thinking of the other person's god-like face, and the way he sunk in the red mud of the mortal world, struggling hard.
Facts have proved that Li Fengxin, who failed to redeem Wang Wu, was not as calm as he thought.
Since ancient times, talented people have been lonely, and they prefer to be affectionate when seeking spring.
This sentence probably refers to people like Li Fengxin, who are lonely and looking for flowers and willows, but they are still conceited and affectionate.
So Li Fengxin has been really uneasy lately.
Even when drinking tea and eating, I would often sit in a daze for a while.
Because he can't help but wonder whether the Gushe God who fell into the clouds will sink into oblivion.
He ended up in a mess and his lips turned purple.
Even if Yanfei Tower is just a theater restaurant, who can say for sure in this place of fireworks and willow alleys.
I heard that there are some bad guys who like to write a piece of lyrics and music on the girl's white skin afterwards...
The more Li Fengxin thought about it, the more uncertain her mood became.
So much so that when his friends came to visit, he would just sit in the courtyard and drink tea absentmindedly.
"Brother Kong Qi, brother Kong Qi?"
Until the scholar who was the guest reached out and waved in front of Li Fengxin.
Li Fengxin finally came back to her senses.
"Ah, it turns out to be Guanting, why are you here?"
Li Fengxin makes friends regardless of status, so when talking to friends, she doesn't care too much about common etiquette.
However, he is a prince after all.
Therefore, it is indeed quite rare for a guy to be as unconventional as the person in front of him.
"Why am I here?"
Seeing Li Feng's distracted look, the visiting scholar rolled his eyes exaggeratedly.
"Obviously you called me to have tea with you, but you asked me why I'm here?"
The scholar's name is Liu Ji and his courtesy name is Guanting. He is a famous poet and prodigal son in Yangzhou City.
He is talented and full of knowledge. Unfortunately, because his ancestors broke the law and his father was in business, he was not allowed to take the imperial examination. So he could only recite poems and compose poems day and night, and have fun.
He and Li Fengxin met in an accident, and ended up becoming close friends by accident.
"Oh, I remembered that a new batch of Biluochun has indeed arrived at my house recently. I called you to taste it together."
Li Fengxin, who finally found her soul, patted her head suddenly and then said to the servants beside her.
"Xiao Qi, please go and get some new tea from the warehouse. By the way, let the kitchen prepare some snacks, we will use them later."
"Yes, Your Majesty, please wait a moment."
After hearing this, the servant immediately bowed his head and retreated.
Then, in the courtyard where the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant, only Li Fengxin and Liu Ji were left.
"So, do you want to tell me what's wrong with you?"
Watching the servant go away, Liu Jinai sat down on a stone stool carelessly.
"I……"
After thinking about it for a moment, Li Fengxin did not tell her what happened in Yanfei Tower.
So between words, he just shook his head slowly.
"That's all, it's just some private annoyances, and it's not enough to explain to outsiders."
"Yeah?"
Seeing that Li Fengxin had no intention of telling anything, Liu Ji did not delve into the matter further, but changed the subject jokingly.
"Then let me tell you some interesting things to relieve your boredom. By the way, have you been to Sycamore Key recently?"
"Went there once, what happened?"
Hearing a word related to thoughts again, Li Fengxin's eyes seemed to have become darker again.
"Ha, then you must have heard of that white jade girl, right?"
Liu Ji's smile, on the other hand, became even brighter.
"Her recent limelight has been astonishing. Rumor has it that this woman is as beautiful as a fairy, as beautiful as a hundred flowers, shy as Daji. She even has a dress that astonishes Feng Chen's talent and integrity.
Haha, based on what those people said, I feel a little itchy. So, Brother Kong Qi, are you interested in joining me to test the truth of this rumor? I can’t say that you are upset, but it can also make you happy.
It’s a bit of a stretch.”
"I'm just a woman from a brothel. How can I relieve my depression? Guan Ting, don't just believe other people's exaggerations."
Li Fengxin, who didn't mean what she said, pretended to smile calmly.
"And if I can only rely on the dew among these flowers for comfort, then who have I become?"
"Okay, you are noble and awesome. Then I will go by myself and come back to tell you what's right and wrong after I find out the way. But let's talk about it, if I kiss this beauty first because of my personal charm,
You can’t be greedy.”
Liu Ji mentioned this not without any basis.
Because of his outstanding talent and reputation, he is also the best at writing romances, plus his natural handsomeness is comparable to that of Li Fengxin.
Therefore, Liu Ji could always make young women fall in love with him.
Sometimes, you don’t even have to pay to go to a brothel and drink wine.
As a result, Li Fengxin's smile froze on her face. After a long time, she took a deep breath and said.
"Yanfei Tower is a theater restaurant. It's impossible for them to let you get close to Miss Bai Yu."
Although he said this, his hand still clenched the tea cup unconsciously.
Facts have proved that even Li Fengxin cannot deny Liu Ji's ability to deceive girls.
"Yes, I can't get close to Miss Bai Jade."
Liu Ji, who had a leisurely expression, shrugged his shoulders calmly.
"But if Miss Bai Yu wants to get close to me, then they can't stop her."
Although he never has a real relationship with anyone, Liu Ji likes to show mercy everywhere.
The so-called flirting but not flirting probably refers to people like him.
"okay!"
Li Fengxin, who had never seen what those women who were fascinated by Liu Ji turned out to be like in the end, couldn't sit still.
Then, he put one hand on the table and said in a more serious tone.
"I recently wanted to hold a poetry gathering to calm my nerves and find talents. There are a lot of things going on, and you are tired. Come and help me."
"Ah, but I've been quite busy recently."
"What are you busy with? Are you busy visiting Yanfei Tower?"
"Well, besides that, if that white jade girl is worthy of her name, I would also like to write some more poems for her."
"That's enough! All I do is indulge in fireworks every day! Look at you, your eyes are black! What a waste you have become!"
"Hey, hey, hey, just say what you say, you can't slander anyone! I've always been among thousands of flowers, and never let a single leaf touch me, okay?"
"All in all, a real man has his heart set in all directions! Can you make a difference? Can you stop digging into those red candle nests all day long?"
"Good guy, I can't even take the imperial examination, why are you telling me to quit?"
"If you can win the first prize in this poetry competition, I will find an opportunity for you to take part in the imperial examination."
"Is this true?"
"It's hard to chase a horse."
"Okay! Just wait for me. Even if I don't eat or sleep these days, I will still organize the poetry fair for you!"
As a result, the news that Prince Qi's palace was going to hold a poetry festival spread like this.
Therefore, Liu Ji, who had to prepare for both the poetry festival and the imperial examination, no longer had the leisure to visit a brothel.
Today's result was ultimately Li Fengxin's plan.
