Chapter 436
The beauty of West Lake is so beautiful.
On the lakeside, there are many vendors and tourists, and it is very lively.
Luo Qingzhou and others crossed the road, arrived at the lake, and walked directly to the stone bridge, planning to visit the stone bridge first and then take a boat ride.
There are also many tourists on the stone bridge.
There are groups of literati and poets wearing Confucian robes and holding folding fans; there are also families of old and young who are enjoying themselves and laughing; there are also some young boys and girls who are just beginning to have feelings and are shy to talk.
As soon as Luo Qingzhou and others walked onto the stone bridge, they heard a woman on the boat under the bridge twisting her arms and legs, waving and shouting: "Sir, come up and play for a while, we have a lot of fun on the boat, what kind of Girls have them all.”
Luo Qingzhou didn't look sideways and walked forward quickly to avoid being stepped on again.
Miss Qin Er stopped, stood at the railing, and looked at the boat below.
Nangong Meijiao stopped next to her, looked down coldly, and explained: "That's the brothel's painting boat, where there are women performing arts and prostitutes. This is the favorite place for scholars to go. If you are talented, it is not only free to play there, but you will also be competed by all kinds of women.”
After saying that, she turned to look at someone.
When Luo Qingzhou saw them stop, he didn't dare to move forward, so he had to stop and look at the lake in the distance.
Second Miss Qin turned to look at him and said, "Brother Qingzhou, is Sister Meijiao right?"
Hearing this, Luo Qingzhou looked at her and said, "Second Miss, I don't know either. I've never been to that kind of place."
Second Miss Qin said with a half-smile, "Have you never been there?"
Luo Qingzhou said calmly: "I haven't been there."
He was arrested that time because of something else. He had already explained it to the second lady, and he definitely couldn't admit it at this time.
Nangong Meijiao said meaningfully: "The poem that is most sung in brothels now is the "Shui Tiao Ge Tou" spread from Mocheng. If the talented man who wrote "Shui Diao Ge Tou" came to Kyoto, all the poems in Kyoto would He should be able to play in the brothel for free."
Second Miss Qin looked surprised and said, "Really?"
Nangong Meijiao said: "That man's reputation in brothels everywhere is even higher than that of popular courtesans. Not only in Kyoto, but also in other places. He can go to brothels all over the country for free. Even the courtesans in brothels who claim to be noble, I’m also extremely obsessed with him.”
"How did Sister Meijiao know?"
"Listen to what Xue Yi said."
"How did Sister Xueyi know?"
"I guess I heard what others said."
The two of them sang together, as if they were really talking about other people's affairs.
Luo Qingzhou stood aside, looking at the lake in the distance and thinking.
At this moment, a surprised voice suddenly came from behind: "Hey, isn't this Brother Luo?"
Luo Qingzhou turned around and saw a young man wearing a Confucian robe and a Confucian crown, holding a folding fan and walking over with surprise on his face.
Behind him were three other elegant scholars holding folding fans.
At this time, the three scholars all looked scorchingly at Miss Qin Er and Princess Nangong, with expressions of astonishment on their faces.
Luo Qingzhou was stunned for a moment before he remembered.
The scholar calling him in front of him seems to be named Han Jin. When he got to know the Queen of Yuan in Mocheng, this Han Gongzi and several other scholars went to visit him in the Qin Mansion.
"Brother Luo, don't you remember me? I, Han Jin, went to visit Brother Luo in the mansion with Brother Zhou and the others."
Han Jin came closer, cupped his hands with a smile on his face, and glanced at the two girls beside him.
Luo Qingzhou cupped his hands and said, "Brother Han, of course he remembers it."
Han Jin smiled and said, "I didn't expect that by such a coincidence, Brother Luo would also come to Kyoto. By the way, I'll introduce some friends to Brother Luo."
As he spoke, he pointed at the three men behind him and introduced them one by one: "This is Brother Zhang Jiuyuan from Ningzhou, this is Brother Xu Fangxu from Jiangnan, and this is Brother Shangguanhong Shangguan from Kyoto."
All three of them bowed their hands politely.
Luo Qingzhou also bowed his hands.
Han Jin smiled again and said, "By the way, Brother Luo, there is a poetry meeting on the West Lake today, on the painting boat over there. Why don't Brother Luo join me and go up there to join in the fun?"
Luo Qingzhou declined politely: "I have something to do today, so I won't go."
When Han Jin heard this, he glanced at the two girls beside him and said with a smile: "Brother Luo, these two are..."
Luo Qingzhou said briefly: "My young lady."
As soon as these words came out, Han Jin was slightly startled and asked doubtfully: "Your lady? Didn't Brother Luo marry into the Qin family? These two..."
Luo Qingzhou didn't talk nonsense to him anymore. He cupped his hands and said, "Brother Han, then you go to the poetry meeting. I will also accompany my two young ladies on a cruise."
With that said, he was ready to leave.
When the other three men saw this, they immediately became anxious and quickly blocked their way.
Among them, the fat young man named Xu Fang quickly smiled and said: "Brother Luo, we happened to meet each other today. Let's make friends. Why leave in a hurry. You just want to go on a cruise, so why not come with us to the boat? Let’s have a poetry meeting, the scenery there is much better than on the boat.”
Luo Qingzhou glanced at his eyes and heard him secretly saying in his heart: "It turns out that this kid is a son-in-law, so it will be much easier to handle." No matter what happens today, we must bring these two beauties to the boat]
The tall man named Shangguan Hong also held up his hands and smiled: "Brother Luo, this is the first time we meet, why don't you give me face? Although I, Shangguan Hong, am not a powerful person, I can be regarded as one of the most powerful in the Kyoto literary world. Slightly thin noodles.
Having said this, he raised his chin slightly, looked at the two girls next to him, and said calmly: "My father is... ah..."
"Bang!"
Before he finished speaking, Luo Qingzhou flew up and kicked him directly in the stomach, knocking him to the ground.
The other men's faces suddenly looked astonished.
"Brother Luo, you..."
Just as Han Jin was about to speak, Luo Qingzhou kicked him to the ground with a bang.
"What are you doing? We are all scholars. A gentleman talks but does not do anything..."
The expressions of the other two men suddenly changed, and they backed away while shouting angrily.
Luo Qingzhou still chased after him, kicking them both to the ground again.
His strength was just right.
All four of them were lying on the ground, holding their stomachs, their faces were pale, their mouths were wide open, they were in so much pain that they couldn't speak, and they couldn't curse even if they wanted to.
Luo Qingzhou ignored them and turned to Miss Qin Er, "Let's go, let's take a boat."
At this time, the bookboys and servants led by the four men ran over from the shore not far away.
The man named Shangguan Hong was finally able to speak and shouted angrily: "Beat him, beat him to death!"
Seeing seven or eight strong young men running over, Luo Qingzhou quickly pulled Miss Qin and hid behind Nangong Meijiao, saying, "Princess, it's up to you."
Nangong Meijiao turned to look at him and said, "I don't feel very well today and can't move. Besides, we are all weak women. As a man, shouldn't you protect us with all your strength when encountering such a thing?"
Pearl immediately walked forward and took out the throwing knife from the moonlight room: "Uncle, Miss, don't be afraid, as long as Pearl is here, they won't even think of touching a hair on your head!"
Qiu'er grabbed her and said, "Zhu'er, you will die."
Pearl's face was filled with self-confidence: "It's okay, I'll stab them in the thigh."
Qiu'er could only whisper: "Put it away, now is not the time for you to show off, give me a chance."
Zhu'er was stunned when she heard this and said in surprise: "My uncle is a weak scholar. He can beat scholars. How can he beat those thugs? He will be beaten to death."
Qiu'er still pulled her back and put away the throwing knife in her hand.
"That's the kid! Beat him to death!"
The man named Xu Fang also covered his stomach and shouted angrily.
Seven or eight thugs, sharpening their fists, rushed over from the bridge in a menacing manner.
Other tourists on the bridge panicked and gave way.

"Princess, call your guards quickly."
Luo Qingzhou said quickly.
Nangong Meijiao looked at him coldly and said, "I didn't bring any guards."
Luo Qingzhou said: "Aunt Mu and..."
At this point, he suddenly stopped talking.
A sneer appeared in Nangong Meijiao's eyes: "Aunt Mu and Nanny Jiu? They are both drivers. They have no power to restrain a chicken and are weaker than you. How did you know that they are my guards? "
Luo Qingzhou: "..."
Nangong Meijiao looked at him with a sneer on her face: "Luo Qingzhou, have you ever seen them do anything?"
"No, no..."
Luo Qingzhou denied it.
Nangong Meijiao raised her eyebrows and said, "That's it. Go ahead and stop them for Wei Mo's sake. This is what you should do as a man."
Miss Qin Er also said softly: "Brother-in-law, Weimo needs your protection."
Luo Qingzhou looked at her strangely.
Why does he feel that Miss Qin Er today has been helping Princess Nangong?
Aren't the two of them united?
Seeing the group of people rushing over fiercely, he did not dare to hesitate anymore, fearing that the second lady would be injured in the chaos. When he was about to step forward to stop him, there was a loud "boom"!
The whole stone bridge suddenly shook!
The bridge deck that the group of thugs were running towards suddenly broke and collapsed!
"ah--"
The seven or eight thugs and the book boy who followed them all screamed in fear and fell into the lake below.
"Plop!"
"Plop!"
"Plop!"
There were constant screams and water splashing!
What was extremely coincidental was that only that part of the bridge was broken, and there were no other tourists on that part of the bridge except for the thugs and bookboys.
Tourists standing on both sides of the broken bridge screamed when they saw this scene, fearing that the bridge deck under their feet would suddenly collapse.
Nangong Meijiao and Miss Qin, who were standing at the break, were also startled, their faces turned pale, and they hurriedly retreated.
Luo Qingzhou directly hugged Miss Qin Er's fragile body to prevent the bridge deck under his feet from suddenly breaking.
However, other places were still solid, not even shaking.
Seeing this horrific scene, the tourists on the lakeside also screamed.
The painted boats and pleasure boats that were playing on the lake quickly rowed over, preparing to rescue people who fell into the water and tourists who were trapped on the broken bridge.
"Luo Qingzhou..."
Nangong Meijiao looked at the broken bridge in front of her, with a look of shock and suspicion on her face. She suddenly turned her head to look at him and said, "What's going on?"
Even a warrior in the realm of martial arts cannot break a solid stone bridge with just one kick, right? It's just a pitfall at most.
Could this guy...
Luo Qingzhou saw her staring at him with stern eyes and quickly said with an innocent face: "How do I know that the princess won't suspect that I broke it?"
Second Miss Qin also looked at him and said: "Brother Qingzhou, what a coincidence, just a few of them fell down, so you don't have to fight for it..."
Luo Qingzhou: "..."
Zhu'er also looked at him and said, "Uncle, you must be very lucky."
Qiu'er also looked at him suspiciously.
At this time, the four men who were lying on the ground after being kicked by Luo Qingzhou all got up with pale faces, hurriedly climbed to the railing, waved to the boat and boat below, and shouted for help in terror.
The tourists who were trapped on the broken bridge all shouted loudly at the railings.
Because no one knows whether the stone bridge under our feet will break again.
In addition to the few painted boats, many pleasure boats also came over, taking the opportunity to make money.
Many cruise ships throw ropes upward for people on the bridge to tie to the railings and then hang down along the ropes.
"Brother Qingzhou, what should we do?"
Miss Qin Er looked at the cruise ship below and asked softly.
She was not afraid or anxious, because she knew that her brother Qingzhou would definitely not let anything happen to her.
Luo Qingzhou looked at the broken bridge again and said: "We can only slide down along the rope. The bridge will definitely not be connected for a while. Second lady, don't be afraid, I will carry you down later."
Zhu Er quickly said: "Uncle, what should we do?"
She only knows how to throw knives, but not anything else.
The distance between the top of the bridge and the bottom is quite high.
Luo Qingzhou looked at her and said, "Don't be afraid. Just hold on to the rope and slowly slide down. It doesn't matter if you fall into the water. There is a boat below to rescue you."
Then he said to Qiu'er: "Qiu'er, don't worry, I will carry you down later."
Pearl: "..."
Qiu'er suppressed a smile and said, "Thank you, uncle."
Luo Qingzhou lay on the railing and looked down at the ship.
Miss Qin Er whispered from the side: "Brother Qingzhou, have you forgotten Sister Meijiao? She is not feeling well and cannot go down alone."
When Luo Qingzhou heard this, he glanced next to her and whispered: "Second Miss, men and women don't have sex. I can't hold her. Let Aunt Mu rent a boat to pick her up."
Nangong Meijiao looked at him coldly.
Luo Qingzhou pretended not to see it, lowered his head and continued to look at the ships below.
A tall and beautifully decorated boat slowly approached. It was covered with light gauze and the women in gorgeous dresses waved their handkerchiefs and shouted sweetly: "Young masters above, the servants are here to pick you up."
Luo Qingzhou took a look and said: "Second Miss, the boat is relatively high, we can drop directly to the second floor, otherwise..."
Before he finished speaking, Miss Qin, Nangong Meijiao next to her, Qiu'er and Zhu'er all looked at him meaningfully.
Luo Qingzhou continued: "But it will definitely be expensive... let's take a small boat..."
"Uh-huh!"
A rope was thrown up and flew towards him.
Luo Qingzhou subconsciously stretched out his hand, caught it, looked down, and saw a awning boat parked below, with a young girl in Tsing Yi standing on the bow holding a bamboo pen.
The girl had an ordinary appearance, a slender figure, and a pair of bare white jade feet. There was a red rope tied to one of her ankles, and there seemed to be a bell hanging on the red rope.
"Sir, I have one tael of silver per person, do you want to come down?"
The girl in green clothes on the boat raised her head and shouted in a clear voice.
Luo Qingzhou glanced at her delicate feet and silently tied the rope to the railing. Then he turned around and said, "Second Miss, I will carry you down."
Second Miss Qin said: "Brother Qingzhou, you are so expensive."
Nangong Meijiao on the side sneered: "Weimo, for some people with foot fetishes, they are willing to pay no matter how expensive it is."
Luo Qingzhou said: "..."
