Chapter 61 Horse Racing
Ming Jin frowned, feeling that what this person mentioned must not be a good thing, "I would like to hear the details."
"We found a corpse. The corpse was abandoned in a deep ditch on both sides of the official road. He had only been dead for a few days. The most important thing is that he was naked."
He wanted to see Xie Mingjin's reaction, but he heard someone from the Xie family muttering: "Ah, rape and murder?"
Zhuang Wuxue and Ming Jin both looked over, and Xie Zhichun and Xie Mingdai, who each covered Xie Mingyue's mouth with one hand, looked ugly.
Zhuang Wuxue's eyes swept over them, his expression unclear, but his eyes were so dangerous that both Xie Mingyue and Xie Zhipuru trembled. However, Xie Mingdai glanced at him coldly, not afraid, but took the opportunity to scold Xie Mingyue.
"That person is a man, and he is a martial arts practitioner."
Zhuang Wuxue's eyes were so meaningful.
It’s me, the secret guard of the Xie family!
"It's not my invitation. Today's heroes are the horses in the arena and all the gentlemen from aristocratic families. There may also be many brothers and sisters. It looks like there is still some time. How about you sit down and have some tea?"
Yao Guang smiled, waved his hand, and motioned for everyone to sit down. He also specially invited Ming Jing to sit next to him. He was not overly warm and approachable, but he also clearly respected Ming Jing's status.
Ming Jin sat down, Shaoyao was a little surprised, but also breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that the princess is easy to talk to. She does not make things difficult for her girl as expected, nor does she use the banquet king's engagement to humiliate her.
The people raised in the Great Northwest are extraordinary.
Not only Shaoyao was surprised, but Xie Mingdai, who was accompanying Lin's daughter on the other side, was also very surprised. She secretly thought that she had miscalculated. If so, wouldn't it make her feel embarrassed in front of Xie Mingjin?
No, she guessed it right. Today is definitely a game, because she discovered one thing - there is no noble lady here who is familiar with Xie Mingjin, even if she is at odds with her, there is no one who is familiar with her, which means she is on the same level as her.
None of the noble ladies came.
Why? To avoid Ming Jin, or... to avoid Yao Guang?

As Yao Guang said, when it comes to the racecourse, the horse racers are naturally the most important. Even from a certain distance, the girls can see many handsome men from aristocratic families on the racecourse.
However, it is still early for the game to start, and the ladies are too reserved to watch all the time, so there is another stage on the platform here to give the ladies a cover.
But today, most of them are young girls with a general interest in opera, so today they are invited to sing and dance.
The music of the harp and the flute, the singers and the singers, were really moving, even though all the ladies were distracted, they soon regained their concentration and came back.
Ming Jin's eyes immediately retracted and fell on the stage, his eyebrows slightly deepened, as if he was concentrating on it.
"The princess returned to the capital for the first time, and she was able to invite such an outstanding song and dance. It's really impressive."
"This song and dance is good. I will definitely use it when I have a banquet at my house someday. Could you please introduce it to Your Majesty the Princess?"
Singers and dancers are naturally despicable, but they are also a monopolized resource. Some are even supported by one party and used exclusively by one party. Others can borrow them, which can be regarded as a manifestation of maintaining connections.
Yaoguang was generous and decent in dealing with Luo Luo, which made thoughtful ladies like Xie Mingdai convinced that this princess was really good.
"This is the first show. The finale is the highlight. You guys can't be more proud of it."
"Do you like Ming Jin?"
Yao Guang smiled brightly, and the girls responded and watched with real attention. However, Ming Jin narrowed her eyes and smiled at the deep meaning of Yao Guang's turned head.
"The songs and dances specially chosen by the princess are naturally good. Looking at them now, I like them very much."
Yao Guang smiled even more.
Each performance was indeed exciting, and even the young men who were busy training on the field came to watch it from time to time. However, due to the height of the stage, they could only hear the sound and could not see anyone.
Time passed and the fruit plate on the small coffee table next to Xie Mingdai was half empty. During the last scene, water mist was released from behind the scene. Some noble ladies were surprised, but some knowledgeable people understood that this was the backstage of the song and dance.
The background is cynical, I'm afraid it's someone blowing smoke and vapor. The fog effect is indeed hazy, but it's definitely not the protagonist. I'm afraid the protagonist is...
There is the sound of flute and piano, and then, in the curl, a solitary figure comes like a lotus stepping on the water. It is bright yellow and orange silk yarn, red, green and yellow Dunhuang color. It is the scorching red sun, the yellow sand and the lonely wall, and even the green trees of the desert.
, seemingly transparent but not transparent, with a graceful and snow-white waist, dancing with light and shadow, like a demonic snake crossing the mountains and sea, or like an immortal descending to earth to dance in Dunhuang, so exotic, so fascinating.
Everyone was stunned, and at the same time their faces turned red.
Ming Jin was also a little surprised, but she was more restrained and just watched the end of this beautiful dance quietly.
The beautiful thing is that after the dance ends, the fog just dissipates.
Only then did everyone see clearly what the dancer looked like.
In fact, they had been addicted to it before, and they also assumed that this woman must be a stunning beauty, but the fact is that reality is always crueler than speculation, but it may also be better.
When they saw this person clearly, they were shocked and then came to their senses, and then they were shocked again.
No matter whether a noble girl from an aristocratic family is beautiful, as cold as a fairy, or as dignified and self-possessed, she is beautiful, but she never has the bone-deep sultry charm of the woman in front of her.
Because this is something that aristocratic families avoid.
The air of dust.
You can get pleasure from flirting, but you won't get respect.
"This woman..." The daughter of the Grand Master's Mansion couldn't help but ask. She was suspicious because she vaguely guessed who this person was. The Mingdai mother clan sitting next to her came from the Grand Master's Mansion, but she
I have been in Wuling all year round and didn't know much about it. Seeing my cousin hesitate to speak like this, I couldn't help but frown.
Yao Guang smiled, his eyebrows broadened.
"That's right, it's Yang Wu, the head of the brothels and courtesans in the capital."
The daughter of a brothel!!!
The girls were shocked, all of them were ashamed, and the eyes of the people in the stands also became very contemptuous.
Yao Guang didn't care about other people's attitudes. This attitude was normal anyway. She just turned to look at Ming Jin, "Ming Jin, what do you think of this kind of singing and dancing?"
Only then did everyone realize, brothel, Xie Mingjin... Banquet King!!
It turned out to be waiting here!
Princess Yaoguang would actually suppress Ming Jin in this way?
Just to step on the latter's head to gain fame among noble ladies and integrate into the aristocratic circle of the capital?
Xie Mingdai was suspicious, but she couldn't bear to see Ming Jin being humiliated like this.
She was about to speak, but Ming Jin had already spoken.
The woman on the stage, Yang Wu, lowered her eyes and stood still, without changing her posture, just waiting for the dispatch of any of these nobles who could destroy her by raising their hands, but she also knew that she was vaguely dragged into a plan.
Chapter completed!
