MTL - Rebirth of Glory and Splendour-Chapter 68 reunion
Seeing Wei Chongrong's anger rising, completely immersed in anger, and turning a blind eye to what was happening around him, Dongfang stabbed him with his elbow and reminded in a low voice, "Sir, everyone else is already seated."
When Wei Chongrong was touched by him, he suddenly came to his senses and forced himself to stop looking at the stage, lest the more he looked, the more angry he would become and lose his mind. He took Dongfang and found a place with a decent view and sat down. .
In Baihuayuan's oiran banquet, the seats of the guests are not randomly arranged. Except for those who are proud of their identity like Tuduo, others are based on the previous consumption amount. Wei Chongrong's first impression of sitting in that position is that this is a master who spends a lot of money.
When he came to Zhuxia, Wei Chongrong used his identity as the son of a wealthy South Vietnamese businessman. Although Zhu Xia did not trade with Dayan, they had frequent trade exchanges with Nanyue. Therefore, in the streets and alleys of Yisa City, many people from Dayan could be seen. derived commodities.
The previous collective performance was just the prelude to the oiran banquet, but it was to give the guests a general understanding of the qualifications of the oiran candidates.
The next personal talent show is the highlight, because every oiran candidate must bid on the spot after the performance, and the auction is over. The one with the highest worth is this year's oiran.
According to Wei Chongrong's original intention, he participated in the Hua Kui banquet just to join in the fun. At most, he helped to raise the price in the middle of the way to repay Mrs. Ling Xiao's favor. flower.
But after seeing the familiar figure, Wei Chongrong changed his mind instantly. No matter what the reason for his coming here or what he wanted to do, he had to photograph him, and he couldn't let him continue to mess around.
The order and method of appearance of the oiran candidates have been carefully choreographed. Each has its own characteristics and is very different from the previous ones. Even if everyone here is a person who has read countless beauty, they can't help but shine, waving their silver tickets one after another. Called a high price.
Seven beauties came out in a row. Except for the fifth one, there was a little twist and the auction price soared, to the point that many people were discouraged. However, there were still some people who were still standing still and seemed to be waiting for something.
Wei Chongrong made a general observation and found that most people are just following the trend, that is, as long as the price is within his range, others bid, and he also bids, and does not care about the style and type of the beauty. For these people, Wei Chongrong didn't take it to heart, it was easy to get them, and the bid was above their psychological price, but Tuduo, who was always calm, made him have a bad premonition.
Unlike Dayan, Zhu Xia does not have any requirements for the origin of the concubines in the harem, as long as she is beautiful, the more beautiful the better. Tu Duo's mother was born in a brothel. When she was young, she was known as the first beauty of Zhu Xia.
Tuduo completely inherited the beauty from his mother, and even surpassed it. It is said that his concubine and his subordinates were all wronged and punished because of their fascination with him. The degree of his beauty is determined by This is evident.
Wei Chongrong didn't understand why Tuduo was a great beauty in the country, why he was so keen on collecting beauties. According to what he heard, the second Prince Zhu Xia has come to Baihuayuan to bid for the oiran every year since he was an adult, and every time he can hold a beautiful woman.
If he wanted to see beautiful women, it would be fine if he looked in the mirror himself. She was absolutely stunning in the world. Why would he have to put it in a room. No matter how much he collected, no one could catch up with him. What's the point? It's really incomprehensible.
There are three remaining candidates. The one who is about to appear is already standing on the edge of the stage. She is not the one Wei Chongrong is waiting for.
Wei Chongrong couldn't help worrying that Mrs. Ling Xiao would put his little monkey on the finale. She should not know his true identity. In that case, things would be a bit troublesome. It would be as difficult as plucking hairs from a tiger's head in Zhu Xia's territory and Tuduo.
What's more troublesome is that once Tuduo is offended, it will be impossible to trace Wei Mao's whereabouts by following his line.
Just as Wei Chongrong was grinding his posterior molars hard, a petite and lovely figure came onto the stage. Although his face was covered with a veil, his eyes that looked forward to life still attracted the attention of many people. Seeing him holding swords in both hands, he seemed to want to perform a sword dance.
The music sounded, and the people on the stage flipped their wrists, pulled two sword flowers, and danced to the beat. Although Wei Chongrong was very angry, he had to admit that the choreography of Xiao Maozi's sword dance was very good, neither too soft nor too rigid, and the combination of hardness and softness was just right.
After the dance, there was thunderous applause from the audience, and a few impatient ones were already bidding.
Wei Chongrong made up his mind that he must catch the little monkey back, but he was not in a hurry to bid, but secretly observed who was participating in the auction. Tudu was still sitting like a mountain, which made him feel a little more at ease, and it was best not to have to face him directly.
Everyone's bids were getting higher and higher, and soon surpassed the previous highest price, but fewer and fewer people participated in the auction.
When the last three or four competitors were left, Wei Chongrong patted Dongfang on the shoulder, indicating that he would also participate in the bidding.
Dongfang was watching the drama lively, and when he heard Wei Chongrong's request, he was stunned. They didn't come to see the play, how could they still participate? What the **** is going on? Wei Chongrong didn't have time to explain to him, so he just kicked him so that he wouldn't waste time.
Dongfang's biggest advantage is that he is very strong in execution. Whether he understands it or not, as long as it is ordered by Wei Chongrong, he will do it. So he stood up majestically and shouted out a price that had never been seen this evening.
As soon as his words fell, two previous bidders sat back, and it seemed that they were about to withdraw from the competition.
Wei Chongrong figured it out, if there are no new competitors, at least one round, as many as two rounds, he can succeed.
Sure enough, after Dongfang made an offer, only one person called for a higher price, and Dongfang raised the price again, but he also gave up.
Wei Chongrong snapped his fingers happily, thinking about how to deal with the disobedient little monkey later.
Unexpectedly, things were going to be tough. When the auctioneer asked for a higher price for the third time, Tuduo's entourage stood up and quoted a price that surpassed Dongfang. Wei Chongrong's heart suddenly tightened. He didn't feel bad for Yinzi, but if Tuduo got involved, it would be over.
The young man in white gauze stood on the stage with his sword in hand, his smart eyes turned around, but it never landed on Wei Chongrong.
He was looking at Tuduo, and seeing that he had been calm, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious, but the smile on his face became even sweeter.
Finally, Tuduo's entourage made an offer, and the young man was overjoyed, feeling that the matter was settled, who would dare to rob the second prince.
I don't want someone to eat bear heart and leopard gall, I have to compete with Tuduo. The boy was a little curious, so he turned his eyes away. He didn't know the person who made the offer, but behind him, he saw a person he absolutely didn't want to see at this moment, and his face couldn't help turning pale.
Tuduo is a frequent visitor to Baihuayuan. Usually, as long as he makes a move, others will voluntarily back down, so as not to conflict with him and invite revenge.
It was rare to meet someone who didn't buy his account, and Tuduo felt a little strange, so he glanced at Wei Chongrong.
Although Wei Chongrong was determined to win his little monkey, he couldn't let other people see his thoughts, so when he found Tuduo looking at him, he smiled at him and threw a wink at him to prove himself. The love of beauty is indistinguishable.
Tudu glared at him in disgust and turned his head back. He did not let anyone participate in the next round of bidding.
Seeing that Tu Duo had withdrawn from the competition, Wei Chongrong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but never thought that someone could see his actions clearly.
The beauty who appeared in the finale was dazzling, and Tuduo took him at the undisputed highest price, and the oiran banquet ended successfully.
At the end of the song, everyone dispersed, each returning to his own house. Wei Chongrong asked Dongfang to stare at Tuduo's actions, and returned to the house happily humming a ditty. Although the purpose of getting close to Tuduo was not achieved, the innocence of his little monkey was preserved, which is still a gratifying thing.
Wei Chongrong pushed the door and entered the room. There was no candle in the room, but he had deep inner strength, and he could see at night. He could see clearly through the extremely weak moonlight outside the window. There was a person lying on the large bed. He deliberately increased his pace and walked over slowly step by step.
Hearing his footsteps, the young man not only did not get up to meet him, but turned over and faced him with his back.
Wei Chongrong raised his eyebrows amusingly, thinking that the little monkey recognized him, otherwise he would not dare to be so presumptuous. He walked to the bedside and stood, reached out and patted the boy's slightly flimsy shoulder, but he was ignored at all, but pulled up the quilt and covered his head.
Wei Chongrong shook his head and smiled helplessly, sat down on the side of the bed, and hugged the boy on the bed with the quilt, and said softly, "Little monkey, stop pretending, I know you recognized me long ago. Come, come out quickly. If you don't come out again, be careful of me..."
Before he could finish speaking, Junhua got out of the quilt and asked, "Be careful, what do you want?"
Wei Chongrong held his shoulders and looked at his facial features carefully. When he was veiled before, anyone who looked into Jun Hua's eyes would think that she was a great beauty, only by looking at his face would he realize that this is a childish young man.
"Be honest, who told you to do this? If you don't tell me clearly, be careful I'll spank you!" Wei Chongrong was afraid after thinking about it, Tuduo was vicious and never showed mercy to others, Junhua fell to It is strange that his hands are not eaten and wiped clean.
"You dare!" Jun Hua broke free from Wei Chongrong's restraint and said unconvinced: "Where am I joking, I know that the third son disappeared in Honghe County, and at the same time, the people of the second prince appeared there, so he deliberately I came to Yisa City to inquire about the news."
Wei Chongrong frowned, with disbelief written all over his face, and asked in a low voice, "Didn't you really run out of the house?"
Jun Hua shook his head again and again: "Of course not, I got Daddy's permission. If you don't believe me, you can ask him when you go back." They couldn't go back to Dayan before they found Wei Mao, and Wei Chongrong had no way to verify it. It doesn't matter.
Wei Chongrong looked at him intently, and seeing that Junhua's eyes were so clear that it didn't look like he was lying, he couldn't help sighing that Junqing was really enlightened. When he was Junhua's age, Wei Zhao never let him perform tasks alone, but Junqing was so enlightened. Maybe he didn't expect Junhua to be so courageous.
He thought for a while, and asked in a deep voice, "You didn't come alone, did you?" Wei Mao came out of Yujing and walked all the way to Yizhou. Wei Ming not only sent him to track him, but also notified Ji who was stationed in Yi'an County. Xin sent people to intercept, if Jun Hua came out with people, it would make sense.
Jun Hua nodded, without denying Wei Chongrong's words, his red face showed a little smugness.
Wei Chongrong asked again, "But they don't know your identity, do they?" Jun Hua is the eldest son of the Prince of Changning and the prince of the Marquis of Zhaoyang. Those who know his identity are determined not to let him approach by pretending to be an oiran. Tudor's, because no one can afford the consequences.
Junhua lowered his head and said nothing. Wei Chongrong was right, his father let him go out, but he agreed to participate in the search for Wei Mao, and did not allow him to enter Zhuxia. But he didn't plan to tell Wei Chongrong about these things, saying that he would really spank him.
Wei Chongrong sighed and reached out to rub Junhua's head. He was already here, and it would be meaningless for him to say anything. The most urgent task is to find Wei Mao's whereabouts as soon as possible, and for other matters, it will not be too late to settle after returning to Dayan.
Junhua looked up at him and protested righteously: "I'm no longer a child, you can't rub my head casually any more."
Wei Chongrong smiled and squeezed a hand on his face. The little monkey has grown up, and his face is not as fleshy as he was when he was a child, and it is not as comfortable to hold. It's just, why is his face so hot? Could it be that he was sick? Wei Chongrong couldn't help touching it again, causing Junhua to hide back.
"Brother Rong, don't touch me, your hands are so cold!" Jun Hua shook his head to avoid Wei Chongrong's hand, breathing a little short.
Wei Chongrong had an idea and suddenly understood. He jumped up from the bed, first extinguished the burning incense on the table, and then pushed the window open to let in the fresh air outside. It's all his negligence. In a place like Baihuayuan, how could it be ordinary incense? It must be helpful. The little monkey is young and has no personnel. He has been waiting for him in the room for a long time. The trick is inevitable, but fortunately, the medicinal properties are not strong, as long as it is relieved in time, it will not cause any harm to the body.
Jun Hua was at a loss for a while, and apparently also discovered the effect of incense and the changes in his body. He retracted himself into the quilt, and said with a crying voice: "Brother Rong, don't come here!"
Wei Chongrong came here. Hearing the rustling voice and the panting that Junhua tried to suppress, of course he understood what he was doing, and subconsciously asked, "Little monkey, do you want me to help?"
