Chapter 260: Is the girl going to sell herself?
Rouze soon got the news that Ziyun was coming.
After some inquiries, she learned that Ziyun had simply returned the bracelet that Yinzhen had given her. She couldn't help but secretly curse that this famous prostitute was useless.
Even if you learn all the tricks of the brothel, what good is it? If you can't even attract a man's heart, then it's really useless.
"Fang Chun, what's going on with the people you arranged?"
Fang Chun said: "This is already the best skinny horse in Yangzhou City. If she can't do it, I'm afraid the others won't be able to do it either."
Rouze rubbed her brows.
"Forget it. Just hurry up and arrange this matter. If it doesn't work, there are still Suzhou and Hangzhou."
"Anyway, this time, you must arrange a helper for me."
Rouze has thought it through in the past two years and realized that the person who can truly keep Yinzhen's heart for a long time must be the one Yinzhen likes.
But Yinzhen doted on her too much, so her status could not be too high so that she could control her better.
"By the way, the person you arrange must not be better looking than me."
Fangchun said in his heart.
Although Rouze is already twenty-seven years old, it is not easy to find someone with a beauty like her who is more beautiful than her.
It's okay for her to find it anywhere.
-----------------
In the next few days, Yinzhen also met with local officials in Yangzhou.
What made him feel something was wrong was that no matter who he was sitting in front of, the person sitting with him was always Ziyun.
Is it so easy to invite this top performer from Yangzhou?
Yinzhen quickly realized that the person was coming for him.
However, compared to the first time when she rashly asked Yinzhen to redeem her, she just performed obediently afterwards and had no other thoughts.
Until he left Yangzhou on March 17, Ziyun did not take any other action.
After that they went to Suzhou Prefecture and Songjiang Prefecture, and in early April they finally arrived in Hangzhou.
Hangzhou is already ablaze with colour, with thousands of flowers in bloom.
This is Yixiu's first time in Hangzhou.
The West Lake is indeed very beautiful, just as described in those poems.
But they live in Xixi Gaozhuang.
This was originally the house of Gao Shiqi. Although Gao Shiqi has passed away, his descendants still warmly welcomed Emperor Kangxi and his entourage.
The scenery in Xixi is also very beautiful, and many people travel through it in rowboats.
After a day's rest, they would review the military prowess of the Eight Banners here.
Every time this happened, Yinzhen started to have a headache.
Although his riding and archery skills have improved over the years under Yixiu's supervision, they are still far from up to par when compared with the other warriors of the Eight Cavalry.
Yinreng, Yinxiang and Yinzhen were eager to give it a try.
All three of them have good martial arts skills.
Yinzhen began to feel uncomfortable.
If the third brother and the fifth brother came together, at least there would be someone to accompany him.
Yixiu comforted him: "It's okay. The reason why the emperor values Silang is not because of his riding and archery, but because of his ability to govern the country."
Yinzhen: I feel even more uncomfortable after hearing this. What should I do?
Yinzhen thought about it for half the night and decided to just give up.
Yixiu was right. It was already known to everyone that he was not good at riding or shooting.
If he were to compete for the throne in the future, civil governance would be more important than military prowess.
None of the female members of the family went to the martial arts performance, only Yinzhen went alone.
Sure enough, as Yixiu had expected, Emperor Kangxi did not criticize Yinzhen's riding and archery too much, and even praised him a few times perfunctorily.
Yinzhen knew that he had passed this hurdle.
Yinreng, Yinxiang and Yinzhen went out to drink, but Yinzhen refused.
Yinzhen just felt extremely lonely.
They were a bunch of rough men, all obsessed with riding and shooting, which made him look not that powerful at all.
If you have the ability, compete with him in civil administration.
So even though he knew he should go to such occasions, he didn't go.
"Su Peisheng, the stars are bright tonight, which is quite nice. Boating on the lake under this kind of starlight must be quite interesting."
Su Peisheng had already known about rafting in the West Lake, and when Yinzhen asked him about it, he seemed very confident.
"Fourth Master, there are many people who make a living by boating on the West Lake, and some of them are women. If there are beautiful women, beautiful scenery, singing and dancing to accompany them, it is also a very elegant thing."
When Yinzhen heard about that elegant thing, he became interested.
"Then let's go to West Lake. You can arrange these things."
Su Peisheng rode to the West Lake first to make arrangements, while Yinzhen and other followers followed slowly behind.
At this time, the crescent moon had already hidden in the clouds, and only a pale white corner could be seen faintly.
Beneath the vast and dazzling galaxy is the tranquil lake.
There are several boats floating in the lake, with bright lights on the boats, which contrast beautifully with the stars in the sky.
A small boat stopped at the shore. Su Peisheng got off the boat and bowed to invite Yinzhen to get on.
"Fourth Master, there is only this last ship left today, I have to inconvenience you a little."
"What's the grievance?" Yinzhen felt much more open-minded at this time.
"This can be considered a kind of fate. We came at the right time."
Soon after Yinzhen got on board, he heard the clear and melodious sound of a piano.
The sound of the piano is very beautiful.
Yinzhen himself was an excellent zither player, so he could naturally understand the meaning of the music.
It has a hint of sadness and is not an ordinary song. Instead, it sounds like an improvisation, but the rhythm is also very beautiful.
"Boatman, row the boat over."
When the boatman heard Yinzhen's words, he knew what he meant.
The most famous thing about West Lake is the West Lake boat girls, who are no different from the Yangzhou skinny horses, but are more elegant.
Imagine these literati and these beautiful women boating on the West Lake and having fun. That scene must be extremely wonderful in the minds of men.
Therefore, there are always some literati who rent boats and face the boat girls across the boat, which is more mysterious than boarding the boat directly.
This gentleman today also looks like a beauty hunter.
The boatman secretly curled his lips.
Although some of these women are proactive, most of them are poor women. If it weren't for the need to make a living, who would be willing to do this kind of thing in such a beautiful scenery?
The boatman was a little disdainful, but since he was the one who spent the money, he still rowed over as he was told.
The closer you are to the person playing the piano, the clearer the sound becomes.
At this time, the boatman realized that the person playing the piano should be Miss Xueqing.
Miss Xueqing was not extremely beautiful, but she played the piano very well, so most people who came here came to listen to her music and did not force her to sell her body.
The boatman breathed a sigh of relief.
Miss Xueqing shouldn't sell herself today, right?
