Shen Shen Shen doesn't pursue men, only money

Chapter 122 Let’s go drink

Without waiting for Zhu Yanxiao's answer, she turned around, lifted her skirt, and confidently walked out of this room that gave her countless memories and passions. But the moment she turned her head, tears rolled down like beads that had broken off the string.

After all, she still loved him deeply. That's why she couldn't stop crying.

Zhu Yanxiao really wanted to hug Shen Shenshen's back, but in the end he just sat down dejectedly, his thoughts were confused, he had never felt like this before, his heart was sour and painful, he couldn't breathe.

The servants of Heyin Tower saw Second Miss Shen coming down the stairs with red eyes, and the Prince was not behind her. They immediately understood what had happened between the two.

Lu Hen had been waiting at the stairs on the first floor, his face full of worry but he didn't dare to ask.

"Let's go, Greenscar."

The master and servant walked out of Heyinlou one after the other. Shen Shen stood beside the carriage, watching the bustling crowds coming and going on the most prosperous street in Dongxiang.

When I came out, I accidentally glanced at the water leak in the hall on the first floor. It was almost noon. If I went home at this time and in this state, my mother would worry about me again. Now I really didn't feel like talking or listening to scolding. After thinking for a while, I asked the driver: "Uncle Zhao, is there a wine shop nearby where I can drink in the store?"

"To reply to the Second Miss, there are two. However, few women would go to a tavern."

"Uncle Zhao, let's go to whichever restaurant has a private room."

"Second Miss really wants to go?"

"Well, let's go." After saying that, he got on the carriage.

Lu Hen followed behind without saying a word. He followed the young lady into the carriage and changed the handkerchief that was covered with snot for her.

The driver had already seen the second young lady's red and swollen eyes, but he didn't expect that she would go to the wine shop to drink because of her sadness. When Uncle Zhao whipped the carriage, he raised his hand and quickly made a few special gestures to the Feidaowei near the Heyin Building, and then drove the carriage to the wine shop.

After Shen Shenshen left, Zhu Yanxiao sat alone in the private room, staring at the hairband that accidentally fell from the back of his head to the front. The black hairband was crumpled by Shen Shenshen, just like his current mood. Looking at the crumpled hairband, he even forgot the habit of tapping the table with his index finger.

All the servants, guards, and waiters outside the house knew that the two masters were quarreling, and no one dared to come to the private room to disturb the masters.

After sitting for about a cup of tea, Zhu Yanxiao returned to his usual demeanor and walked out of the private room. Xingyun and Liushui immediately followed him from outside. The two of them were behind Zhu Yanxiao. I winked at you, and you winked at me, but neither of us dared to speak.

"Speak." Zhu Yanxiao walked down the stairs as if he had eyes on his back.

"Ahem, Prince, that, that." Liushui said with gritted teeth.

"If you hesitate again, you will be punished." He went downstairs and was walking quickly through the hall to the outside of the building.

"My Lord, the Fei Daowei guarding the rooftop just now sent a message saying that the spy planted in the Marquis' Mansion gave intelligence that the Second Miss Shen..." Liu Shui didn't have the courage to call the Crown Prince's Consort anymore. He looked up and saw that the Crown Prince had no intention of stopping him. Before the Crown Prince could open his mouth to punish him, he said in one breath: "Second Miss Shen did not return to the Marquis' Mansion, but went to the Huaqing Tavern."

"A tavern? As the Crown Prince's consort, she goes to a tavern? This is absolutely ridiculous. Does she still have this Crown Prince in her eyes? Why didn't you stop her?" Zhu Yanxiao's emotions finally exploded and he reprimanded the two guards.

Xingyun and Liushui felt very aggrieved: Second Miss Shen was going to the wine shop, how could they, as servants, dare to stop her? But they lowered their heads honestly, looking like they were being taught a lesson.

"When did it happen?" His voice was a little nervous.

"About a quarter of an hour ago. Don't worry, my lord. The guards of the Marquis' Mansion have been following Miss Shen Er. She will not be in danger."

"Guards of the Marquis' Mansion?! Humph! If there is any danger, you will all come to me with your heads raised."

Without waiting for the two guards to admit their mistakes, Zhu Yanxiao and his men jumped onto the roof of Heyin Building and headed towards Huaqing Tavern. The Feidao guards standing guard in various places saw their master personally jumping towards the direction where Second Miss Shen was heading, and they all jumped up and followed.

Huaqing Tavern is located on Baicang Avenue, just two blocks away from Heyinlou on Zhuque Street.

The wine shop is not very big, it is an antique two-story building, and you can tell at a glance that the owner has great taste and character. On one wall of the shop hangs a large ink painting of an exquisite teapot, and under the painting is a small tea table that can seat four people, so that guests who don't drink can also drink tea here.

The other two walls of the first floor hall are all covered with wine jars. The densely packed wine jars fill the walls, and the aroma of wine is everywhere. There are four square tables neatly placed next to the two wine walls in the hall. The most unique thing about the wine shop is that there is a guqin in the middle of the hall. Many guests get excited after drinking and improvise to play the guqin. The guqin is more flavorful when paired with fine wine, and even drinking becomes an elegant thing.

As soon as Shen Shenshen stepped into the wine shop, he fell in love with the atmosphere here. It was similar to the bar where he drank in his previous life. A very perceptive servant immediately stepped forward and said with a smile: "My dear guest, are you buying wine or looking for someone?"

"Drinking. Is there a private room?"

“Um…” The servant looked Shen Shen up and down for a few times and said uncertainly: “Just one distinguished guest?”

"Yes, one person. I have plenty of money. Lead the way."

"Yes, yes, yes. Please follow me to the second floor." When the servant heard that there was silver, he did not ask any more questions and led the way to the second floor.

The environment on the second floor of Huaqing Tavern is also quite good. The private rooms are not ordinary private rooms, but three large open rooms, one in the east, the other in the south. A large gauze curtain is hung in the middle of the open room, separating the room into two independent rooms. Flowers, birds, fish and insects are painted on the gauze, and people on both sides of the room can see each other's vague silhouettes through the gauze curtain.

The advantage of this design is that it is extremely elegant. When a breeze blows outside the window, the gauze curtains sway slightly, and the painted flowers, birds, fish and insects seem to sway and move as well. It looks like a poetry and painting club, but not like a tavern.

If there are many people drinking, you can pull up the gauze curtain to turn it into a large room that can accommodate ten people.

The disadvantages are also obvious. There is no sound insulation. If one table of guests speaks louder, the other table can hear what they are talking about. Many times, two tables with the same topic become one table, and there are also two tables that have conflicts and fights.

It was still early and there were no guests in the private rooms.

Shen Shenshen found a private room with a window on the east side and sat down. She asked Luhen to wait at the tea table downstairs. The guards of the Marquis' Mansion were also guarding downstairs. Shenshen was not afraid that the drunk lecher would come to trouble her.

"Waiter, what's the best wine here?"

"My dear guest, for women, peach blossom wine is the most recommended. It is slightly sweet and not too strong. The flavor of the wine is a mixture of the fragrance of peach blossoms and fruits."

"What about the liquor?"

"Strong liquor? That's our store's signature drink, called Henian Green Liquor. A hundred years ago, it was presented to Your Majesty by Mr. Chen Sheng, the richest man in the capital."

"Then bring me a pot each of peach blossom wine and crane-year green wine. I'll try them first." She threw out a tael of silver and said, "The extra is yours."

The servant smiled and said, "Thank you for the reward, sir. I will bring you some wine right away."

"Do you have any snacks? I haven't eaten yet."

"Then I will prepare four dishes of appetizers for the distinguished guests?"

"Yeah. Come on."

"Okay. Please wait a moment, my dear guest."

The servant put away the silver, turned around and went downstairs to leave.

Sitting at the table, tears were still flowing. I stood up and stood in front of the window, feeling the breeze of Juyue, looking up at the sky, and calming myself down.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door, and the servant came in and said, "Dear guest, the wine and food are here."

"Put it on the table." Shen Shenshen looked out the window and answered calmly without turning back. She didn't want to be seen crying by a stranger servant.

After the wine and food were placed on the table, the waiter said, "Dear guest, please enjoy your meal. If you need anything, please call me."

"Yeah. Go down."

When Shen Shenshen heard that there was no movement in the room, he sighed, sniffed, gently wiped the tears from his face with his index finger, and turned around with red eyes.

As soon as I looked up at the table, I suddenly found a handsome man sitting quietly at the table.

His long jet-black hair was tied up high with red brocade, and he wore a golden crown on the high ponytail. He wore a sky-blue robe embroidered with gold thread and a red belt embroidered with gold thread. His clothes were extremely complicated and luxurious, but this extreme luxury just brought out his handsomeness.

The man was looking at her with concern.

"Hai Bi? Why are you here?" Shen Shenshen couldn't believe his eyes.

"The tavern is the property of the Duke of Yunsheng. The Zhaixing Tower is next to the next two shops. I happened to be in the Zhaixing Tower today. The carriage of the marquis's mansion was recognized by the servants of the Zhaixing Tower, and they reported it to me." Looking at Shen Shenshen, he sighed.

"As a result, I saw Second Miss Shen in this state."
