Chapter 38 Huakui Competition

"Yes." Hearing Hu Yimeng's laughter, several maids came to their senses this time and answered in unison.

At this time, Mother He also sent someone to urge Hu Yimeng to leave.

"It's time for us to leave." Hu Yimeng said.

With a confident smile on her face and a few little girl, she followed the steward out of Lianqin's courtyard.

After Hu Yimeng left, Kong Long pushed open Lianqin's door and walked into the house.

After half a month of cultivation, Lianqin's body has almost recovered. Although her palm-like face is getting thinner and thinner, her face is rosy, not as pale as when she was rescued by Hu Yimeng. At this moment, she is leaning against the bedside holding a handkerchief and embroidering.

Hearing the sound of someone pushing the door, Lianqin looked up and saw that Kong Long was coming.

She smiled, put down the needle and thread in her hand, and said to Kong Long, "You're here."

"You still haven't told the truth to Xiao Menger after all, Lian Qin." Kong Long stood in front of Lianqin's bed, with beautiful peach blossom eyes, deeply staring at Lianqin leaning against the head of the bed and said faintly.

"I... don't understand what you're talking about." Lianqin's hand trembled slightly, and she lowered her eyelids, and her long eyelashes covered the look in her eyes.

"Rianqin, you know." Kong Long sighed, "Little Menger treats you like a sister, but you let her jump into the fire pit of He's mother for you. After all, you are an ordinary mortal and can't escape your selfish desires."

"I..." Lianqin's lips trembled slightly twice and wanted to refute, but couldn't find words.

Yes, she is selfish after all, because she clearly knows that if Hu Yimeng wins the first place after the Huakui Competition, what is waiting for him? She also knows what his mother is thinking, but she conceals Hu Yimeng, who regards her as a good sister.

Why did you do this? Do you really want to wait for Hu Yimeng to win the first place in the Huakui Competition, and let her redeem her according to the agreement with Hu Yimeng? Ha ha, Hu Yimeng may believe what He's mother said, but she doesn't believe it. Over the years, she has already seen the true face of the black-hearted old pimp. She has always believed half of what she said and can't even believe it at all. Mother He would never let Hu Yimeng redeem her and set her free. And with her background as a brothel, even if she is away from the Wanhualou, where is her place in the world?

Lianqin knows what she wants to do. She is waiting. She has been waiting. She is waiting for Kong Long to redeem her in order to prevent Hu Yimeng from participating in the Huakui Competition. But in the end, her wait was in the end. Kong Long did not redeem herself for her. She originally thought that she might have overestimated Hu Yimeng's low position in Kong Long's heart, but now she knew that Kong Long was also waiting. He was waiting for her to confess to Hu Yimeng, and he was waiting for her to overcome her selfish desires.

Lianqin smiled bitterly. It turned out that she had done everything, but in the end she lost to herself...

"I will take Xiao Menger away after this Huakui competition. You can take care of yourself." Kong Long glanced at Lianqin, a woman who was extremely kind and gentle in his heart, but in the end, she was just defeated by his desire like an ordinary person. It's just that he shouldn't believe that there are still kind-hearted human beings in this world.

"Lianqin knew it wrong. Can you forgive Lianqin this time?" Lianqin asked Kong Long in a soft voice.

"It doesn't matter if you don't forgive." Kong Long shook his head, turned around and walked out of the door.

"In this case, Lianqin thanked the prince for his care during this period. The prince's great kindness Lianqin will be remembered in his life and will never forget it. Please go well." Lianqin knew that Kong Long, who treated people and looked like a spring breeze, showed that he was determined to leave with Hu Yimeng after the Huakui Competition. It is estimated that he will not come to this Wanhua Tower again in the future. Although there are some regrets that he has not been redeemed by this beautiful son and has been attached to him since then, Lianqin has a new plan in her heart. The happy scene of the brothel, the prince and the flower girl, she and he got together and broke up well.

After witnessing Kong Long leave, Lianqin has been forcing herself to smile and pick up the unembroidered handkerchief again and rubbed it several times.

A lifelike peacock embroidered on the sky blue background, and only a few stitches away from the sparrow's tail can be completed. Lianqin sighed, threw the veil on the small table at the head of the bed, closed her eyes and stopped looking at it.

Hu Yimeng came out of Lianqin's courtyard under the guidance of the steward, passed through the lobby of the Wanhua Building and came to the gate of the Wanhua Building.

A gold and silver edge, decorated with flowers and bright silk, and the soft sedan chair carried by eight strong men in jujube red clothes is placed in front of the door of the flower house.

The sedan chair is open on all sides, so that pedestrians on the roadside can see the beautiful woman in the sedan chair clearly, which is also a propaganda method for Huakui in ancient times.

Hu Yimeng learned from Xiaoyun that before the start of the competition, Hu Yimeng and Lianqin would meet the ladies sent by other brothel in this luxury soft sedan representing the Wanhua Tower, make a detour around the city, and finally stop at the Star Picking Tower next to the East Lake to start the formal competition.

When she walked to the door, Hu Yimeng saw that the peony had got on the sedan chair and was slanting at her. Although she had a charming smile on her face, her eyes were full of hostility.

Today, Peony wears a long skirt embroidered with moon white rolling gold-rimmed and exquisite dark lines embroidered with silver thread. The small semi-full chest exposed outside is even more attractive under the support of moon white. Peony's moon-white skirt is covered with a bright purple satin coat, and the outer shirt is embroidered with various color threads. The blooming peony, the color of the silk thread is particularly bright in the sun, and it also emits a little light, which seems to be an ordinary color line.

The peony is combing a family bun today. A pink peony is inserted in the middle of the bun, and the two strands of hair on the temples are attached to the cheek like a crescent moon. The originally enchanting face of the peony is even more romantic and enchanting.

Peony sat in the soft sedan chair, the painted red nails tightly grasped the veil in his hand, and looked up and down at Hu Yimeng with the charming eyes with some purple rouge on the eyelids.

Although she doesn't want to admit it, she has to say that Hu Yimeng is indeed much better than her and Lianqin after dressing up. It is not an exaguing to say that she is charming and a stunning beauty in the world.

The delicate face, the tall chest, the slender waist, the enchanting posture, the ecstasy eyes, and the breathtaking charm emanating from the inside out. She is not as charming as she has been familiar with the temperament of men for many years. Her charmingness is natural. Looking at it, Peony suddenly thought of a word that could describe Hu Yimeng - Mei Gu Tiancheng. Such a beauty will make both men and women crazy about her in the world.

Peony felt that he had fallen behind before he started the game. How can this not make her feel discouraged?

As soon as Hu Yimeng came out of Wanhualou, she immediately stunned the audience. None of the people present were surprised by her beauty and charming amorous feelings, but no one knew the name and origin of the new flower girl in Wanhualou this year. Some regular customers also began to wonder that they had never seen this woman more beautiful than a fairy in thewan hua lou before.

"Sister Yimeng, you really make everyone wait." Peony stared at Hu Yimeng and said strangely.

Hearing the words of the peony with a gun and a stick, Hu Yimeng smiled and did not care about her. She bowed to the people waiting outside Wanhua Tower. "Yimeng's yard is a little remote, and it comes out slowly, which makes everyone wait for a long time."

Hu Yimeng apologized softly and immediately won the understanding of everyone present, and on the contrary, it made everyone feel that it was their honor to wait for such a stunning beauty to come out.

Hu Yimeng got up and got into a soft sedan chair with the help of Xiaoyun and Xiaoyu.

Hu Yimeng and Lianqin sat in the sedan chair. Under the order of the steward, the soft sedan chair was slowly lifted by eight big men. Then, according to the tradition of the previous Huakui competitions, they first came to the gate, where they merged with the sedan chairs of the Huaqinglou, and then circled around the main streets of Tianji City.

Because last year's Huakui's wife came out in Wanhualou, the sedan chair of Wanhualou was arranged in the first for this year's parade.

Hu Yimeng sat in the sedan chair and looked at the crowd around with a smile.

This posture is a little similar to the float parade of the world she lived in before.

When she passed the door of Tianju, Hu Yimeng's heart suddenly jumped wildly. She felt as if a hot sight was staring at her. She raised her head and looked in the direction of Tianju. She faintly felt that she had won the first place in the Huakui Competition, and then helped Lianqin redeem herself and immediately left Tianji City. There seems to be something going to change in the plan.

Hu Yimeng did not know at this time that the disturbing sight that shot her from the direction of the sky came from Beichen Yeli.

It has been more than half a month since Beichen Yeli came to Tianji City. The investigation of the corruption case of the Wang family's Caoyun is not progressing smoothly. Wang Zhihang has been in charge of Caoyun for so many years. He is indeed a powerful figure. Not only makes the accounts on the surface seamless, but also the evidence found secretly by his subordinates' hard work is just He pointed the finger at the little official under him. As for himself, he was clean as if he had not been in charge of the canal transportation for more than 20 years.

However, although Wang Zhihang is as smart as a fox, so that he can't find any flaws, his only son is a playboy. During the period of filial piety, he recruited prostitutes to travel to the lake for fun. Dayu attaches great importance to filial piety, and he can also do something about this matter, although it will not shake the Wang family. The foundation, but it can also suppress the power of the new generation of the Wang family in the dynasty. He didn't catch the big fish, but just picked up a small shrimp. Beichen Yeli would not be satisfied and even a little annoyed.
