"I just need to be careful, but the origin of this girl needs to be hidden. Don't let others know easily that she came from Miaojiang..." Suddenly, Zhu Huanyun suddenly mentioned this.

"Why?" Sheng Yunting was stunned, a little puzzled.

"You may not understand. Ordinary people have too deep prejudice against them..." Zhu Huanyun shook his head slightly, his voice faintly, and gently stretched out his hand to stroke the girl's little head, "This is for her own good..."

"Okay." Although Sheng Yunting didn't understand much, he still listened to her and nodded in agreement.

"Come on, two masters, today's banquet will satisfy you? I don't know much about your Buddhist principles. If there are any shortcomings, just say it!"

At the wine table in the private room, the county magistrate who had already changed into casual clothes was saying happily, then turned his head and looked at the shy lady beside him, stroked her handsome hand, and smiled happily: "Today is a happy day. The two masters don't have to be restrained, eat casually and play casually. Alas, you sit down together, there are no assassins here, so you sit down together to eat together!"

He pointed to the Captain Jin and his subordinates standing next to him, and shouted half-jokingly.

"yes!"

The few people also sat down immediately, and the dining table became much more lively.

At this time, the door of the private room was opened from the outside, and the waiter took a few pots of wine and walked in.

When the county magistrate saw this, he immediately showed dissatisfaction and shouted loudly: "What are you doing? Didn't you see two masters here? What does it look like when you come in with wine? Get out quickly!"

"Sir! You misunderstood." The waiter was startled and quickly bowed to the wine pot and said, "This is vegetarian wine, which is different from ordinary wine. In the past, some monks would ask for two drinks when they passed by, and they were quite famous in this area. So the little man guessed that maybe the two masters would also like it..."

"Oh?" The county magistrate couldn't help but look back at the two Zen masters when he heard this, "I wonder what the two masters think?"

"No need." Zen Master Huaisheng immediately shook his head and refused, "My brothers and I can't taste the wine, so I thanked the donor for his kindness."

Wine is wine, so where is there any meat and vegetables? He doesn’t want to break the precepts just to quickly sip. Not to mention that the senior brother is right next to him, he must be more cautious...

"Let's wait!"

Just as the waiter was about to withdraw, a low voice suddenly came from beside him, which made Zen Master Huaisheng stunned. He turned around and looked at his senior brother who had spoken for the first time since he had just started. He couldn't help but secretly guessed in his heart.

"Does the senior brother suddenly want to drink? This is not great. Should I dissuade me? But I can't control my senior brother, and at worst I can break the precepts with him?"

But of course the fact is not as ridiculous as he guessed. The senior brother called the waiter not to taste the vegetarian wine at all.

Zen Master Huaihong turned his gaze to the half-open door, and the focus seemed to be in the lobby. After thinking for a while, just when the waiter was a little nervous and thought that he had annoyed the master, he finally asked again: "Who is that young master?"

"Young Master?"

The waiter was stunned and turned around and looked at the master's gaze. He happened to see a young man in a luxurious robe, a slim woman and a dirty little girl going out from the gate.

Such a strange combination is really hard not to notice.

After a moment of thought, he quickly replied: "That is Sheng Yunting, the third son of the Sheng family. He is quite kind-hearted on weekdays. This time he came here, he seemed to be bringing that little beggar to dinner."

"The third son of the Sheng family... Sheng Yunting?"

Zen Master Huaihong muttered to himself softly, slowly closed his eyes, and chanted a scripture softly, which made others confused.

"What's wrong with this?" the county magistrate asked in confusion.

"It's okay, it's just a habit of senior brother." Zen Master Huaisheng was also a little surprised, but he was already used to the style of senior brother, and quickly smoothed out the situation and said he could start eating.

...

In the bustling street market, Sheng Yunting had no idea that he had been noticed. He spent some extra time to send the girl back to the mansion and asked someone to take care of her, and then he went out with confidence to continue shopping with Zhu Huanyun.

There are still many interesting places in the world that I haven’t been to, so I have to hurry up.

The people around him gradually smiled, as if some knots were untied, and their smiles became more and more beautiful, making people feel excited unconsciously...

When night fell, Sheng Yunting, who had been wandering around and forgot time, ran to the river bank panting and asked the boat owners here anxiously if there were any free boats, but unfortunately he got a negative answer.

"Young Master, you're late. There is news tonight that the courtesan who hasn't appeared for a long time will play a dance. Someone has rented all the boats away. At this moment, it's hard to find a bamboo raft."

The old boatman sighed and shook his head slightly, and pushed the oars hard in the anxious urging sound, carrying the last boat full of guests slowly drifting away on the water, leaving only a circle of ripples gradually spreading under the blurred moon shadow.

"I'm so stupid!" Sheng Yunting, who was a little annoyed, squatted down dejectedly, looked up at the red lanterns hanging on the river surface, and the music began to play on the boat that shone on the fiery red surface. The graceful figure was already looming. At this time, it was too late to find the boat.

I could only squeeze on the river bank like others and wait and perform from a distance.

In fact, he had already made plans. After all, if he wanted to visit the beautiful scenery of Yuanyang City, the performance of the pleasure boat at night was definitely an indispensable part. And if he could meet the performance of the courtesan, it would be the best!

But for some reason, the courtesan did not show up a few days ago, and it was not until today that he accidentally got news, so he wanted to wait to bring her over tonight and take a boat to watch the performance comfortably and comfortably.

However, unexpectedly, it was because I encountered that girl in an emergency before, so the subsequent plans were delayed for a while. Finally, when I arrived here in a hurry, there was not even a ship left!

"If I had known, I would have asked the servants to book a boat for me earlier!" Sheng Yunting felt a little disappointed, feeling that he was too stupid to mess up his plan.

If I have to wait for the next time, I don’t know when I will meet the courtesan again in a good mood to perform.

If I have to wait for a long time, wouldn’t I regret it even more!

But at this moment, the girl beside her asked curiously: "Do you really want to watch this show? Do you really like that courtesan?"

"Actually, I don't like it very much..." Sheng Yunting looked up slightly, his eyes a little confused. "I just think that no matter how exciting this performance is, if I didn't watch it with you, I always feel like something is missing..."

"Since that's the case..." The girl Qian walked forward to him, leaned over and looked at him slightly, and suddenly tilted her head and smiled, "Let me help you."
