Chapter 353: Unparalleled Beauty vs. 718
Qu Xinyue was slightly stunned. General Yan?
Just as she was stunned, Rong's mother suddenly inserted a hairpin with flowers in her thick hair.
The material used for this hairpin is extremely exquisite and it looks exactly like a real flower.
Mother Rong looked at the hairpin that Qu Xinyue had just put on her head, nodded with satisfaction, and urged Qu Xinyue to go out with everyone.
Guiyin Pavilion had already booked three private rooms in a restaurant on the main street where General Yan rode his horse during the parade, so that the girls of Guiyin Pavilion could perform well.
Because Rong's mother urged her so urgently, although Qu Xinyue had some questions for General Yan, she did not have time to ask before she was stuffed into a sedan chair heading to the restaurant.
Sitting in the sedan chair were Yingxiang and a little maid who served her.
Yingxiang was dressed more exquisitely than usual, wearing a light green dress and even a pearl headpiece that she had never seen before.
Yingxiang looks less charming and more pure than before.
Qu Xinyue's eyes flickered slightly. It seemed that this was not just a trip to watch the general return to the capital.
Yingxiang noticed Qu Xinyue's gaze and rolled her eyes slightly.
That day she asked the kitchen to stew chicken soup, thinking of serving it to Rong's mother in the morning to show her courtesy and ease the relationship between her and Rong's mother.
But when I got outside the kitchen in the morning, I heard Rong's mother praising Qu Xinyue.
She said that it was so late last night, but Xinyue was still thinking about her and eagerly sent a bowl of chicken soup to her room. What a good child she is.
Yingxiang, who was standing outside, suddenly felt dizzy in front of her eyes. When she went into the kitchen, there was no chicken soup.
Only then did she realize that Qu Xinyue had intercepted the tool she was about to use to show her affection and gave it to Rong's mother.
Even if she sent chicken soup to Rong's mother again tomorrow, in Rong's mother's eyes it would just be a lack of sincerity and she was just imitating Qu Xinyue's behavior.
From then on, every time Yingxiang saw Qu Xinyue, she no longer maintained the image of the sisters getting along harmoniously on the surface.
She has thought it through now. Since Guiyin Pavilion doesn't value her, don't blame her for looking for someone better. She should plan well for her future.
Yingxiang raised her head and touched the hairpin in her hair, with a determined look in her eyes.
The sedan chair unknowingly arrived at the Huajianfu Restaurant reserved by Guiyin Pavilion.
The waiter of the restaurant had been waiting at the door for a long time. When he saw the sedan chair from Guiyin Pavilion, he hurried forward with a smile to greet them.
The curtain was lifted, and the bustling Yanque Street instantly appeared before our eyes.
Only then did Qu Xinyue realize that she had arrived very late. Not only were both sides of the street crowded with people.
Even the windows of the restaurants, teahouses and eateries along the street were opened.
Behind the window are all beauties dressed exquisitely and gorgeously.
Qu Xinyue's arrival also attracted the attention of other girls.
But when they saw Qu Xinyue's face covered with a veil, they all felt relieved.
I heard that Guiyin Pavilion recently produced a beautiful lady with angelic looks and outstanding talents.
If that beauty also comes this time, they won’t have much chance of winning.
Unexpectedly, the mysterious beauty did not show up.
Instead, it was the goddaughter adopted by Rong's mother who came.
Never mind how they recognized her. Now the fact that the mother of Guiyin Pavilion adopted a disfigured and ugly girl as her goddaughter has become a joke known to everyone in Jinjin Road!
Qu Xinyue ignored the strange looks, she was still confused and could only follow the waiter who led the way into the private room that Rong's mother had already prepared.
There were already several girls from Guiyin Pavilion in the private room. When they saw Qu Xinyue and Yingxiang, they all greeted them.
However, compared to Yingxiang, Qu Xinyue felt that these girls' greetings to her were a bit perfunctory.
Qu Xinyue didn't care as long as no one bothered her.
She walked to the corner, where there was also an open window and no one was there.
When she walked to the window, her view suddenly became wider.
The scenes on the street below can all be seen, and no matter how high you look, you will see crowds of people.
However, Qu Xinyue soon understood why the girls in Guiyin Pavilion gave up this single window.
Instead, they would rather squeeze in groups of three or four behind the windows on the other side.
She turned her head and looked at the private room on the other side, which was only separated by a wall.
The girl on the windowsill opposite is in full view.
The same gorgeous outfit, but looking over here with full of hostility!
"Hey, isn't this the Miss Dong of Guiyin Pavilion? I didn't expect to see you here."
Upon hearing this, all the girls from Guiyin Pavilion in the private room changed their expressions, and some even showed hints of embarrassment.
The words from the other side were full of sarcasm.
They all laughed at Guiyin Pavilion for being stupid enough to support an ugly person as the host's daughter.
On Jinjin Road, being shameless is a sin.
Only those who look better are more qualified to enjoy better resources.
Qu Xinyue seldom interacts with outsiders and doesn't know how outsiders evaluate her, but she is not stupid and can see some sarcasm in other people's eyes.
Qu Xinyue summed it up in two words - sick!
"Who are you from?" she asked.
At least she knew who the person was who disliked her.
The girls next door all covered their mouths and laughed.
"We are sisters from Chun Man Lou."
Qu Xinyue said "oh" and nodded calmly: "It turns out to be Chun 3 Man Lou, three thousand three hundred taels."
Three thousand three hundred taels, in an instant, were like a slap in the face of the girls in Chunmanlou.
The sarcasm towards Qu Xinyue on their faces was replaced by anger.
Three thousand three hundred taels was the total amount of reward Chun Manlou received during the last competition.
They thought they had already firmly suppressed Guiyin Pavilion.
By then, Chunmanlou will become the third largest beauty building on Jinjin Road.
Their worth also skyrocketed accordingly!
But at the last moment of the time decision, Guiyin Pavilion's deep well of ice was rewarded with silver.
In the end, the amount exceeded that of all the beauty houses, reaching as high as nine thousand five hundred taels of silver!
It’s almost three times that of Chunmanlou!
At this moment, cheers suddenly came from the street.
The girls in Chunmanlou no longer cared about being angry with Qu Xinyue, and looked excitedly towards the place where the noise was coming from.
In the distance, a cavalry group was charging towards them with black flags waving.
The horses' hooves kicked up a cloud of dust, and behind them were neatly arranged square formations of armored soldiers.
Although a large group of troops stopped ten miles outside the city, only a few thousand people entered the city.
But at first glance, these thousands of people looked like a long dragon, winding and twisting, with a huge momentum.
The people shouted loudly, tears in their eyes.
It’s not just because the soldiers defended the country and allowed the people to live and work in peace.
Also because among these triumphant soldiers and generals, there are also their children.
They are truly heroes!
When the triumphant procession approached, they saw the people lining the streets to greet them, and they all slowed down their pace.
The horse's hooves clattered on the bluestone slabs, making crisp sounds.
The girls who came here in admiration of the event all blushed with excitement, and their eyes all fell on the person at the front of the triumphant team.
He was wearing a golden cloud armor that seemed to be surrounded by a faint golden light, a red robe and a silver spear, and the hem of his large black cloak fluttered in the wind.
It makes his face look delicate and gives him an oppressive feeling like a god of war.
"Ah-ah-ah-"
The girls who were watching along the way couldn't help but scream.
One hairpin flower, another hairpin flower, and another hairpin flower, countless hairpin flowers were thrown from everywhere like rain.
All of them were thrown towards the young general.
I only hope that the young general sitting high on his horse, surrounded by stars, can catch my flower.
This is not a hairpin thrown, it is clearly a token of love!
Qu Xinyue, who was just watching the fun, said: ???
When the triumphant team got closer, Qu Xinyue could see clearly...
This damn bastard, it was the one who sneaked away from her bed and left without saying goodbye - Qi Yao!
She couldn't help frowning.
Since Qi Yao was the famous young General Yan, why was he seriously injured that night and fled in the dark?
And the people who were chasing Qi Yao were government officials?
Moreover, according to the law, soldiers leading troops outside the city were not allowed to return to the capital without being summoned.
It is obvious that Qi Yao is returning to Beijing today.
So... when Qi Yao returned to Beijing a few days ago, didn't he come back secretly?
The more Qu Xinyue thought about it, the more intriguing this matter became...
At this time, the chattering sounds of the girls from Huamanlou next door could be heard.
The distance was so close that Qu Xinyue didn't even need to listen carefully, the sound was enough to hit her ears.
Extra clear!
"Ah!!! If my hairpin can be caught by General Yan, I will die without regrets!"
"General Yan will soon be having his coming-of-age ceremony! The Yan family has announced that they are looking for a pure girl to teach General Yan about sex..."
"Ahhh~ It is said that anyone who becomes General Yan will at least have a good concubine!"
……
Qu Xinyue narrowed her eyes and felt a low pressure all over her body, as if an invisible black flame was burning.
Very good, teach me about sex? Good concubine?
The corners of her lips curled up in a sneer, and her eyes fell coldly on the young general in the lead.
Qi Yao had become accustomed to the scene of people lining the streets to welcome him when he returned home.
He went to the battlefield at the age of twelve and spent eight years there, with many scars on his body, but he also made great military achievements.
But in recent years, he really doesn't want to be so ostentatious.
Because every time he came back, the girls on both sides of the street throwing hairpins at him became more and more crazy!
Especially this year, the news released by the Yan family is really not the craziest, but only crazier.
Qi Yao gritted his teeth. How could I, Qi Yao, be interested in these vulgar women?
Not to mention accepting the hairpins from these people.
Qi Yao's eyebrows became sharper and his expression became colder.
His back was straight, and his cold aura was fully revealed.
But unexpectedly, it attracted screams from a group of girls.
Fiery gazes are everywhere.
Even if Qi Yao didn't use his eyes to see, he could feel the gazes of these girls who wanted to strip him naked.
Ok?
Suddenly, an unusual gaze stood out among the fiery looks.
Qi Yao frowned slightly. Such a cold gaze... could it be an assassin?
In an instant, Qi Yao's sharp eyebrows suddenly raised, and his gaze instantly caught the eyes that were emitting coldness towards him.
Their eyes met.
One was upstairs, the other was on horseback downstairs on the street.
The wind blew the woman's veil and made the young general's cloak flutter.
Everything seemed to stand still. Qi Yao's face first showed astonishment, then shock, and then turned into panic at leaving without saying goodbye, and confusion at having his identity suddenly exposed.
All kinds of emotions flooded into my mind at once, and then there was only a blank.
He even forgot to kick the horse's belly to keep it going, and just led the team to stop on the street.
This reaction suddenly made the girls guarding both sides of the street even more excited.
The screams were getting louder and louder, and many people were shouting until their voices broke.
The hairpin flowers were scattered like they were free of charge.
No matter who secretly brought extra hairpins, as long as one of them is caught by General Yan, she will enjoy endless wealth and glory.
Qi Yao was embarrassed by the hairpin and even felt inexplicably guilty when he saw Qu Xinyue's angry look.
He was worried that a hairpin would fall on him and someone would take advantage of him.
Qi Yao, who was startled back to his senses by the scream, suddenly became extremely agile.
It seemed that the hairpins coming towards him from all directions were not hairpins, but deadly hidden weapons.
The girls who threw out the hairpins with great anticipation were almost heartbroken when they saw the hairpins fall to the ground and be trampled and deformed by the horses' hooves.
When Qu Xinyue saw Qi Yao dodging the hairpin, her tightly pursed lips slowly curled up.
Suddenly, a cunning look flashed in her eyes. She pulled out the hairpin from her hair and threw it at Qi Yao downstairs.
Qi Yao, who was dodging the hairpin, suddenly stopped!
His eyes were fixed on one of the hundreds of flowers in the hairpin.
Suddenly, he slapped the horse's back, pulled himself up from the horse, rushed forward, stretched out his hand, and decisively grabbed a tender yellow hairpin flower.
It all happened so fast.
The girls who were still screaming "Ahhh" had not yet reacted when they saw their General Yan flying in the air and easily landing on the horse's back again.
And the heroic General Yan was actually biting... a tender yellow... hairpin flower?
No! Whose hairpin is this? Which fairy’s hairpin is this?
Almost all the girls are going crazy!
Someone is actually picking peaches right under their noses?
Moreover, General Yan simply likes the color of light yellow, right?
But no one told them about this?
If they knew that General Yan had a special liking for yellow, they would have dyed their whole bodies yellow!!!
The girls looked at Qi Yao with resentment, and they looked at every other girl within their sight with hostility.
Who is it? Stand up?!
No girl could accept this cruel fact.
Only Qu Xinyue had a hint of smile on her face, and her eyes were moving, which was very moving.
Qi Yao didn't dare to look at Qu Xinyue too directly, for fear of causing trouble for her.
He solemnly placed the hairpin into his arms, and then gestured to the back to speed up.
The team suddenly accelerated, ruthlessly leaving behind the girls' sad and admiring gazes.
Those who can enter the city with Qi Yao are all Qi Yao’s closest subordinates.
At this moment, their bodies were moving forward mechanically and numbly, but their hearts were already excited and restless.
Oh my God, what did they see just now?
The general who always treated men and women indifferently and only distinguished between friends and foes, he he he actually accepted the hairpin? ? ?
And he held the hairpin in his arms so preciously???
At this time, the soldiers were extremely upset.
Just now, they should have looked in all directions and listened carefully to see who the beauty was who had taken their general as her lover.
Just when everyone was curious about who captured Qi Yao, in the private room of Huamanlou next to Guiyin Pavilion.
A girl with pretty features, but with a teardrop mole at the right corner of her eye, which adds an indescribable charm to her appearance, has twisted her handkerchief into a braid.
She saw Qu Xinyue in the private room of Guiyin Pavilion next door throwing out a tender yellow hairpin flower!
