Love Affairs in Chang'an - Chapter 224

Chapter 224 A Clever Rabbit Has Three Burrows
Walking on the streets of Xiangyang City, Old Nine Zhou kept muttering in a low voice. Qin Mubai asked, “Zhou Laojiu, what are you pouting about?”

“This lowly person is still puzzled. How did the general grasp the meaning of those few words? It’s too strange. If it was this lowly person, he wouldn’t be able to think of that’lonely fireworks in Chuiyang Alley ‘, which refers to the little widow’s Xu Liang Clan’s home.” Zhou Laojiu said, “What if … what if there’s a mistake?”

“What can we do? Let’s go in and have fun!” Qin Mubai smiled and said, “I didn’t bring any troops to capture her. Besides, I’m just guessing that the location is here. As for whether the little widow is a member of the Waterghost Party, I still have no decision. It will depend on the situation at that time!”

“No, we’re here! General, this is it!” Said Zhou Laojiu, pointing to a tall house in front of him.

“Heh, it really is a big family.” Qin Mubai looked up and down and waved his hand, “You go back. Remember, you mustn’t tell anyone what we talked about today. Even if you’re asleep, you should keep your mouth shut. Don’t talk in your dreams and let the wind leak out. Understood?”

“Understood, understood!” Old Nine Zhou nodded his head and bowed, “General, this lowly person’s words are engraved on my bones. I will never forget them!”

With that, Zhou Laojiu left.

Qin Mubai walked to the door and observed it carefully. The door was tightly closed. He forcefully pushed it, and as expected, it was locked from the inside.

He frowned and pondered for a while. Then, he walked along the wall of the courtyard and arrived at the backyard. Sure enough, he smelled a strong fragrance of gardenia flowers. Beside a wall, willow trees were planted inside and outside, and the branches were connected to each other as if they were one.

Qin Mubai raised the corner of his mouth and smiled. He quickly climbed up a willow tree, climbed up a branch, and landed safely in the courtyard.

At this moment, he couldn’t help but think of Chen Yan and thought to himself, If Chen Yan was here, it would be convenient and quick. She has a unique skill in qinggong, flying up and down like a civet cat … I haven’t seen her for a few days, I really miss her a little.

Qin Mubai cast aside his distracting thoughts and sized up the courtyard.

He had cleaned up quite cleanly. There were about sixty to seventy willow trees in a small willow forest where he was now. It was about the place where the host usually rested and took a walk, and there was also a stone path. There were also stone stools and chairs in the forest, and the environment was quite quiet and elegant. A circle of gardenias had been planted outside the forest. At this moment, the flowers were blooming, and one could smell a strong fragrance of flowers from afar. Further ahead, there was an artificial stream with a wooden bridge corridor, and the pavilion building was quite elegant.

“This host has some taste and will enjoy it.” Qin Mubai brushed off the dirt on her clothes, cut her hands behind her back, and walked leisurely towards the courtyard like she was on a patrol. She casually picked a gardenia flower in her hand, sniffed it, and praised its fragrance endlessly.

Qin Mubai couldn’t help but be a little disappointed that he didn’t encounter anyone along the way. He muttered to himself, “I managed to climb over the wall and pick a flower. It’s really a scenery that the host didn’t come to welcome me.”

He walked to the small wooden bridge and went straight along the corridor. After passing a stone arch, he arrived at the front courtyard. He saw a two-storey exquisite small building. In front of the building, there was a willow garden and rockery with flowing water. It was quite quiet.

“There should be someone here, right?” Qin Mubai shouted angrily, “Hey, someone, catch the thief!”

With this shout, there was finally a movement. Upstairs, a window was pushed open. A fifteen-year-old girl said in panic, “Where is the thief?”

Qin Mubai raised her head and smiled, “What do you think?”

“You, how did you get in here! Who are you?” The little girl panicked. She pointed at Qin Mubai and cried out, “Someone, catch the thief! Catch the thief!”

He shouted several times, but no one answered.

Qin Mubai curled her lips and said, “Looks like there’s no one else in the manor’s courtyard. Save your strength and don’t shout your throat out.”

“Humph!!” The little girl snorted heavily and pulled up the window with a bang.

“Eh? Interesting!” Qin Mubai couldn’t help but laugh. “I’m a thief. Close the window. Did I steal everything outside?”

No one responded.

Qin Mubai curled her lips in puzzlement and looked around. A large copper pin was fastened to the door of the upstairs building. Qin Mubai fiddled with it a few times. Unless this similarly sturdy door was removed, it was impossible to break through the lock and enter.

After walking around the courtyard and observing the surroundings, there seemed to be no one else in the house other than the little girl who was upstairs just now.

Qin Mubai couldn’t help but shake his head.

So he went downstairs and said, “Willow trees in Sunset Alley, lonely fireworks. Since you invited me here, why don’t you show yourself?”

After waiting for a long time, the window upstairs finally opened again. This time, half of the figure of a charming young woman was revealed. It was as if she had just woken up from her sleep. She only hastily put a pink cloth over her shoulders and neck to cover her full chest. She did not even wear her underwear. She gently crossed her hands in front of her chest and looked at Qin Mubai angrily.

“Where did this prodigal disciple come from? Aren’t you afraid of the imperial punishment for climbing over a wall in broad daylight?” The woman scolded sternly.

“So you already knew that I was here, and you even knew that I had climbed over the wall.” Qin Mubai smiled and said, “Hua Niangzi, you are indeed more elegant. How tempting!”

The woman (Lady Hua) frowned slightly when she heard this. Her expression suddenly became somewhat blurry and ambiguous. A charming smile appeared on Zhiyi’s face as she said, “Do you know who I am?”

“Of course. The girl’s name is like thunder.” Qin Mubai said.

“So you’re here to have fun with me?” Hua Niangzi smiled charmingly and leaned against the edge of the window. His pair of big eyes looked at Qin Mubai carefully. Suddenly, he smiled and said, “You’re really handsome. Tell me, where are you from, what do you do for a living, and why are you here?”

Hold a candle to the sun!

Qin Mubai couldn’t help but curse in his heart. He could only suppress his frustration for a moment and replied with a smile, “I, Qin Mubai, am from Chang’an. Come to Xiangzhou to be an official. Be a good official.”

“Oh, another one from Chang’an, yet another official! He’s still an official!” Hua Niangzi giggled and said, “What’s wrong with my cabin these days? It’s missing the wild bees and butterflies, but it’s only capable of seducing the phoenix!”

Hearing this, Qin Mubai knew that she was referring to Pang Fei. He knew that Pang Fei had also fallen here!

“Young lady is so charming. I dare say that the subordinate of Chang’an who came with me is so fascinated by you that he can’t go home, right?” Qin Mubai sneered.

“Him!” Lady Hua supported her orchid fingers and giggled with her red lips half covered. “He’s so weak that he doesn’t want to go back. He’s the biggest official I’ve ever seen. He’s actually your subordinate. Tell me, how big is your official? Will he scare me?”

“You talk too much nonsense!” Qin Mubai knitted his brows and said in a deep voice, “Don’t beat around the bush. Tell me, what do you want?”

“What, what!” ‘”Why are you so emotionless? Do you want to flirt with me like this upstairs and downstairs? Let me tell you, I’m not an ordinary brothel girl. No matter how big your background is and how much money you have, you won’t be able to make me happy.” Hua Niangzi asked in shock.

“Alright, alright!” Qin Mubai took a deep breath and helplessly shook his head with a smile, “Tell me, how can you be satisfied?”

“Hehe, that’s right!” Hua Niangzi’s orchid fingers gently wiped over a cloth made of thin milk yarn, gradually reaching his chest from his shoulders. The half-exposed cloth was tightly attached to her body, almost exposing her plump breasts without a doubt. She could see two small nipples protruding out of her chest, which were somewhat hazy and even more seductive and fascinating.

Qin Mubai looked up and couldn’t help but shake his head and tsk, “You’re really a beauty. You’re really fascinating.”

“Is that so?” Hua Niangzi smiled even more charmingly and said softly, “You’re so handsome, your body seems to be quite sturdy, and you’re a young and promising official. Originally, I liked young masters like you the most. Unfortunately …”

In the midst of the battle, Lady Hua’s expression changed. She shouted in a deep voice, “But you hate you very much!”

With a “bang”, she suddenly closed the window and disappeared.

Qin Mubai was stunned for a moment, “What the hell is this thief doing?”

After waiting for a while, there was still no movement upstairs. Qin Mubai couldn’t help but be a little suspicious, “Could it be that my judgment is wrong? Did I find the wrong place?” … No, she also hinted that Pang Fei had come yesterday, and that he wasn’t happy to go home now. Wasn’t she hinting that he had been captured by her? ”

Qin Mubai was puzzled, so he could only walk around the manor to see if he could find any clues. When he walked into the willow forest again, he discovered that there was a person standing beside a stone table and chair with his back facing him.

Qin Mubai smiled coldly and walked over.

It was the figure of a man, tall and sturdy. He wore a black cloak that covered his head, and there was not a trace of skin on his entire body.

Qin Mubai walked behind him and said, “Your Excellency invited me over. Why are you so slow to show up?”

“Qin Mubai is indeed very smart. He didn’t disappoint me.” The man’s voice was somewhat blurry and strange. Only when he turned around did he realize that he was wearing a ferocious ghost beast mask that covered his neck.

“Hide your head and show your tail, why don’t you dare to show your true colors?” Qin Mubai sneered.

“This question is insignificant. Don’t think wrongly. I’m not a big shot, nor am I the Cao Master of the West River Cao, Cao Song, you’re looking for.” That person’s voice was very calm, and he could not hear any emotional fluctuations at all.

“Then what are you doing here?” Qin Mubai asked.

“Of course I’m here to help you.” As the man spoke, his sleeve lightly trembled and he threw something onto the ground with a dingdong sound. So it’s a bunch of keys.

“This is the key to the door of Lady Hua’s small building. Go upstairs!” “Tonight, you have to work hard. If you are a good man in bed, perhaps you can find some answers you need.”

Qin Mubai raised his toes and the key jumped into his hand. He asked suspiciously, “Are you guys playing so many tricks? If you have the conditions, just mention it. I don’t want to waste time.”

“That’s not up to you.” The man said, “It’s like entering a labyrinth. You can’t go in circles if you want to.” All right, I know what you’re thinking. You want to take me down now and see my true colors, don’t you? You’d better save it! I know you’re pretty good, but right now, I don’t know how many pairs of eyes are staring at you. As long as you make a slight change, I’m afraid some heads will land on the ground. That’s not good! ”

Qin Mubai grabbed the key in his palm and smiled coldly, “Don’t worry, I’ve always been very calm. I’m not interested in fighting with you for a long time.” You’re covering your face like this because you don’t want me to know who you are. It’s because I know you. Wait, one day, I will know who you are. At that time, I will tear off your mask and the skin on your face. ”

When Qin Mubai said this, a smile still appeared on his face. The black-clothed man couldn’t help but tremble slightly. He forced himself to calm down and laughed loudly, “Don’t be so smart. You don’t know me. Alright, you go quickly! By now, Hua Niangzi should have cleaned up and is already waiting for you in bed to enjoy himself!”

“Hahaha!” The black-clothed man laughed loudly and left.

Qin Mubai looked at his back and sneered, “Laugh loudly and pretend!” Do you think I don’t know that you are more afraid and timid than me? –Still bad, trapped! Just now, Hua Niangzi deliberately teased me. He should be stalling for time. Just now, the moment I left the building, something must have happened inside!

Who cares, if he comes, he will break through! If the sky falls, it’s nothing more than that. Let’s see what they can do to me!

Qin Mubai returned to the door of the small building and used the key to unlock the lock. Sure enough, it was unlocked. When he pushed open the door and entered, he immediately smelled the unique smell of powder in a woman’s boudoir. The room was a little dark, so the lights were lit. It was also the type of eight glass lamps hanging from the roof, the expensive luxury used by wealthy families. This lamp oil was mixed with spices, so the room was filled with a refreshing fragrance.

The furnishings in the room were also neat and elegant, and the furniture looked rather high-end. No matter how one looked at it, it did not look like the furnishings of a private prostitute’s home.

There was no one in the hall on the first floor, and a staircase appeared at the corner. Qin Mubai did not think about it and directly went upstairs. His footsteps were deliberately heavier, and he stepped on the stairs with a loud noise.

“This servant has been looking forward to you for a long time. Why did you come here, unwilling man?” Suddenly, she heard a giggle coming from upstairs.

“Is that so?” Qin Mubai walked up to the second floor and smiled. “Are we very familiar?”

“We’ve known each other for a long time, so of course we’re ripe.” Hua Niangzi lay on the side of the couch. His jade body was half naked, and a scarlet brocade was draped over his buttocks. His upper body was naked, with only the pink cloth covering it slightly. Yu Feng was about to reveal himself, his congealed skin was reflected by the red powder bedding and cloth, and was coated with a layer of orange light, which was exceptionally blurry and attractive.

Qin Mubai did not conceal her gaze. She scanned her entire body and clicked her tongue. “It is indeed tempting. At this moment, I really want to take off my clothes and lie on you. I’ll talk about it after I’m free and easy.”

“Then hurry up and come. What are you waiting for?” Lady Hua stretched out an arm with a few circles of jade rings on it. She gently waved her finger at Qin Mubai and moaned charmingly, “Hurry up, stinking man, let’s see if you have the ability to make me want to die!”

Qin Mubai curled her lips and shook her head, “Forget it, I still want to live a few more years!” I knew it was a pink skeleton, but I still rushed forward. Aren’t you tired of living? Furthermore, although you are tempting, you are still a bit inferior to my woman. If they found out that I was cheating on a coquettish, cheap, and scorpion-hearted widow, they would definitely castrate me. It’s not that you blame me for being dissolute, but that you hate me … too bad taste! ”

“You’re so cheap!” Hua Niangzi’s face instantly changed again. His expression was as solemn as a knife. He pulled on his clothes and put them on his body. He said coldly, “This old lady thinks highly of you, a pretty little man. She wants to have fun with you and then deal with you, but you talk so much nonsense!”

“Let’s get down to business. This man just happened to come to Heavenly Sunflower today. He’s not interested in women.” Qin Mubai said coldly without the slightest bit of anger.

“Nonsense, how could a man come from Heavenly Sunflower!” Hua Niangzi was clearly annoyed. His apricot eyes widened and he quickly put on his clothes. He also revealed a bit of Kong Wu Qi.

Qin Mubai raised the corner of his mouth and smiled, “You are not the real Flower Lady.”

Lady Hua was slightly stunned, “How can I see it?”

“Hua Niangzi is born and raised in xiangyang, elegant, generous slender and weak. Unlike you, you are born with thick feet and strong martial arts. Obviously, you possess martial arts skills. Although you try your best to pretend to be gentle and charming, you are more flirtatious. In your bones, you don’t have the gentle and lovely taste of a woman from the Jiangnan region. Although your accent is very similar to that of a native of Xiangyang, there is no doubt that you are from the north, “Qin Mubai said.

“Hmph, the little man really has some eyesight. He’s not an ordinary person.” “Yes, I am indeed not Lady Hua, but is this important? You are clearly not here to look for her. Isn’t the person you want to see me?” Lady Hua said coldly as she put aside her legs and glanced at Qin Mubai.

“Are you Cao Master Song?” Qin Mubai asked.

“Heh! You’re such an idiot!” Mistress Hua sneered once again with contempt, “Master Song Cao would be so stupid to come see you personally? If he were as stupid as you, he would probably have died a long time ago.”

“Then you’re his lover.” Qin Mubai smiled.

“Glib tongue!” Lady Hua snorted angrily.

“From your tone, it seems that there are no more than forty, but thirty-seven to eighty.” Qin Mubai smiled and said, “Why does she still look like a seventeen-or eighteen-year-old girl? Not to mention, I almost lost control of myself and was tricked into bed by you.”

“I have the Yang Gathering and Yin Nourishing technique! To tell you the truth, I can really raise you!” Hua Niangzi coldly smiled. “Let me tell you the truth. I respect you handsome young man. If you obediently have fun with me today and make me feel at ease, I will chat with you and tell you some things you want to know. Otherwise, not only will you not hear anything, you will also die on the spot.”

“Then you rape the corpse.” Qin Mubai said calmly, “I would rather wield my saber from the palace than sleep with an old witch like you.”

“You! You’re courting death!” Mistress Hua angrily scolded, then suddenly let out a deep roar, and her figure charged forward like a knife.

Qin Mubai could only feel a flash of light in front of him. Obviously, the old woman had even pulled out her blade. He hastily withdrew and dodged, and a cold wind swept past his face. Hua Niangzi’s martial arts skills weren’t weak. He didn’t even use a single move. He shook his arm and wiped it horizontally towards Qin Mubai’s neck.

Qin Mubai was quick-witted as she shouted, not retreating, but moving forward. She sliced out the wrist that was holding the saber with her palm.

At this moment, he had perfectly utilized a contingency attack to suppress the enemy!

Lady Hua was obviously shocked. She didn’t expect Qin Mubai to react so quickly. She was also so bold. With a step, she suddenly retreated and leaned backwards. She was like a ball of willow catkins that leapt onto the roof and sat on the beam of the house.

Qin Mubai looked up and smiled, “Old witch, you’re gone. I saw you have a sore on your white butt.”

“Little thief, I will tear your mouth and dig out your eyes.” Mistress Hua cursed angrily as she loudly scolded Qin Mubai. She leapt down from the roof like an eagle pouncing on food. Her eyes revealed a fierce glint as a sharp dagger flickered with a cold light and shot straight into Qin Mubai’s eyes.

Qin Mubai sneered and dodged with a light movement. “Enough, don’t play anymore! You better show yourself!” He shouted.

Lady Hua’s avatar took a few wrong steps and stood to the side. She held a sharp blade in her hand and crossed her chest. She coldly looked at Qin Mubai and said, “What nonsense are you talking about?”

“Do you want to continue playing?” Qin Mubai sneered impatiently. “Just now, you suddenly changed your face and angered me. It was just to buy some time and let me in. Furthermore, the little girl who opened the window before has also disappeared. Could it be that there is no third person in this room other than you and me? I don’t believe it. If there is, then the other person is the one I really want to see!”

Lady Hua’s expression changed slightly and she slowly put down her saber, “You are indeed smart!”

“Gong, gong!” A few applause suddenly came from behind the bed. A man wearing a black cloak walked out and said in a similarly low and vague voice, “General Qin, you are indeed extraordinary. I am very satisfied. Only smart people are worthy of being my opponent. Congratulations, General Qin, you have passed. Now, we can get down to business!”

Qin Mubai shook his head and sighed, “It’s really tiring to deal with you people! Are you tired of using your Ghost Domain tricks? Just sit down and talk it over. Is that okay?”

“Of course not.” The black-clothed man said, “If it weren’t for the cunning rabbit, where would we come from? If there weren’t three caves, how could we live to this day? General Qin, please take care of some of them! This is just our habit.”

“Cut the crap!” Qin Mubai shouted in a low voice, “Let’s talk about it. What do you want to do before you’re willing to let him go?”
