Chapter 192: Qingyue's Mind
Under the night, the lights of the Tongque Tower are as bright as day, singing and dancing, and many bamboo silk drum instruments are still ringing. Of course, this is mainly on the second floor, like the room on the third floor and the wing building on the house. The lights have long been dim, leaving only a red candle, swaying, and the candle turns into ashes and tears have dried up.
In those rooms where you can lit a candle, the pink curtains covered the bedding inside. Men and women laughed, panted heavily, the bed swayed, and the rain swayed.
This is Tongque Tower. Many young and beautiful women can stay overnight as long as they give enough money, and sleep here for a while, feel comfortable and be romantic all night.
However, the popular actresses and Kui in Tongque Tower are in this ranks. If you want to become guests of the curtain, you cannot just be rich. You must also have status, talent, outstanding character, and be deeply loved by the actresses, so you have hope of staying overnight. Once you stay overnight and have fun, such actresses will often fascinate the nobles and have already taken them back to the house to be concubines.
Qiao Qingyue just drank with some noble children and court officials tonight and left the table. She returned to her own building, but she had not yet drunk enough.
The twin maids served the eldest lady in the shower and changing clothes, and cooked ginseng soup to understand wine, sobered her, cleared her throat and warmed her stomach.
After taking a shower, Qingyue sat on a wooden couch wrapped in plain clothes and asked, "How is the news inquiry?"
Zhitong replied: "I have already found out when I returned to my little lady. After General Xiao was captured, he was in a depressed state and was tortured. In addition, he was exhausted from the boat and car. He was old and had already suffered from wind and cold on his way back to the capital. Now he was imprisoned in the prison of Dali Temple. His condition worsened and he was probably not alive for a long time."
Qingyue sighed that the two generals of the Southern Chen Dynasty had fallen into this scene. Not only did they lose their reputation in their later years, but they were defeated and captured, but they were also humiliated and beaten. Once their will was decayed, their condition worsened, and the hero was about to die.
Zhitong said angrily: "It's all Luo Cheng's fault. If it weren't for him, the Han army wouldn't have been defeated so quickly, and General Xiao wouldn't have been captured. This young man is so powerful that he has to be eliminated!"
Zhiyun nodded and agreed: "Yes, General Xiao, the son of Mr. Xiao Shiluo, has brought a group of people from Jiangnan to avenge his father and assassinate Yang Su and Luo Cheng!"
The twins, every word, was like a double act, and the cooperation was extremely compact.
Qingyue shook her head and said, "What does this have to do with Luo Cheng? Both sides fought and each was their own leader. It was Yang Liang's rebellion and the imperial army sent to pacify it. Morally, the imperial army and horse still occupied the truth."
The twins were stunned. Unexpectedly, the eldest lady they served would help Luo Cheng get rid of the relationship.
Zhitong stood aside and asked, "Miss, do you think if there was no Luo Cheng in the imperial army, could Yang Su successfully quell the rebels?"
Qingyue said: "Yang Liang was very talented and had no experience in commanding the army, and was also a little cunning. He was a master who was difficult to support. Relying on him to fight against the court is just like the rebellion of the Seven Kings of the Han Dynasty, which was difficult to work. General Xiao had no intention of succeeding this time. He just wanted to push the war longer so that the remnants of the Northern Qi and the soldiers and civilians of the six towns could respond to the Great Sui Dynasty. However, the Gao family's royal family was too slow to respond, and Yang Liang was urged by the imperial army to clean up and wiped out. It cannot be said that it was Luo Cheng's courage and achievements. This was a rebellion without victory."
Zhiyun complained indignantly: "Oh, those people from Gao are too incompetent."
Qingyue shook her head and said, "The Gao family of Northern Qi was destroyed because of his incompetence, killing loyal ministers and being licentious. It was even more useless to rely on the descendants of the royal family. Only the descendants of Lanling King had several outstanding juniors, but it still took several years of experience and growth. It seems that the Sui Dynasty would continue to be consolidated and irreversible. Unless Yang Guang digs his own grave, he will rely on the old royal family such as Chen, Qi, Xiao, and Zhou, which will not be enough to shake the Sui court."
Zhitong asked again: "What does the Jiangdong League mean to support the Chen clan to restore the country?"
Qingyue looked a little cold. She looked at the moonlight on the window frame and sighed and said, "The power of the rivers and lakes is not enough to fight against the court. She can only use her spear and attack her shield. Do you know why King Zhou was destroyed back then? Because Daji is here, our Nanchen and Xiao family have already installed people in the palace, which will gradually affect the political situation. If you want to destroy it, you will make it crazy in the first place!"
"Then how do we deal with Luo Cheng and let him grow?"
"Young Master Xiao Shiluo brings someone to assassinate him. Will we help?"
Qingyue thought for a moment and said, "This Luo Cheng is just a vanguard general, which is not enough to affect the fate of the Great Sui Dynasty. Emperor Wen of Sui killed many famous generals. He has never seen any king who really likes and trusts military generals. However, Luo Cheng is a talented person and outstanding civil and military. If he can win over it, it may be of great use in ten years."
Zhitong said, "But Xiao Yiyi is already very close to him. I just got the news of a secret spy. I found Xiao Yiyi put on a dress and entered the back door of Yanyu Tower. I went to meet my lover again. Even the fifteen-year-old boy was not spared. This Xiao fox really knew how to use methods, and probably had already confused Luo Cheng."
Qingyue thought for a while and said, "In a few days, I will personally send a post to invite him to go out for a autumn outing and try it out. You don't have to worry about it. Young Master Xiao, let them go. There is no accurate information. If they want to assassinate Luo Cheng, there is no chance. After all, this is a capital city, and a strong dragon cannot defeat the local snake!"
"I understand." The twin maid nodded.
Qingyue waved her hand and asked the two girls to put on the bedding and left the room. She got into the bed curtain and gently touched the silk bedding. She thought to herself that Xiao Yiyi had found a young hero. Where is my lover? (To be continued.)
