PFC Chapter 348 Night Journey
Chapter 348 Night Journey
Having just arrived in Beijing today, the Tang family members were tired from the journey, so they did not plan any other activities. After having dinner and chatting for a while, they went back to their respective courtyards to rest.
Tang Yichen still had official business to attend to, so he was in the study dealing with documents. Chen Yu came in with a midnight snack, placed it on his left hand, and stood there, hesitant to speak.
"What's wrong?" Tang Yichen said indifferently.
"The second young lady went out." Chen Yu said, "The servant guarding the gate said someone was waiting for her outside. She left with Song Yi and no maid."
"That man is dressed in black clothes and riding a tall horse?"
"How do you know, sir?"
"You also know that person." Tang Yichen put down the brush in his hand, picked up the exquisite little bowl, and ate the wontons.
Chen Yu thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "Could it be the master from the Song family?"
"Who else could it be but him?" Who else could let Yinyin go out so late except him?
No wonder I didn’t eat much just now. I guess I was waiting for him with an empty stomach!
Little heartless.
The heartless boy was being seduced by the night view of the capital at this moment, and his bright eyes were looking at everything here curiously.
Song Ruize accompanied her, and Song Yi led the horse from behind.
"There are several night markets in Beijing. Let's go to the East Market today and then go to other places another day." Song Ruize said.
"Okay!" Qin Huiyin pointed in the opposite direction. "It looks good there. I want to go there."
It is the most luxurious restaurant in the entire night market and a den of luxury that combines various entertainment activities. If you stand on the highest floor, you can take in the entire night view of Dongcheng.
Song Ruize took Qin Huiyin into the 'East Building'.
As soon as I entered the door, the shopkeeper there came to greet me.
"I'm sorry, sir, we are fully booked today."
Song Ruize took out a token and said, "Ask your boss if it's full."
The shopkeeper took the token and walked to the backyard.
"Brother, since the house is full, forget it." Qin Huiyin knew very well that the capital was not a small county town, and there were many nobles here who were not to be trifled with.
Originally, she wanted to see the luxurious restaurants in the capital so that she could learn from them when she started her own business. Since the restaurant was fully booked, there was no need for her to come here today.
"That's okay, just wait a moment." Song Ruize said, "I have some connections with the owner of this restaurant, so it shouldn't be a problem to ask him to arrange a private room for me."
When the shopkeeper came out again, he was indeed even more enthusiastic. He took them to the highest building here and arranged a room with the best view.
"This wing is reserved for the boss, and it will only be opened to entertain important guests. The boss said that when Sir Song comes in the future, just bring him here and stay."
"Thank you." Qin Huiyin said, "I was just having fun and had to come here to take a look. I'm sorry to have caused you any trouble."
Not long after, the waiter brought a variety of food.
"I don't think I've ordered yet."
"These are our signature dishes, please enjoy them young ladies." The waiter said, "Dear guests, please enjoy your meal."
After the waiter left, Song Ruize poured the brewed flower tea into an exquisite glass cup and placed it in front of her: "Try it."
"Brother, you are so awesome. Even such a big boss gives you face." Qin Huiyin said.
"I just took over half a year ago. His East Building was involved in a murder case, and I stepped in to help them clear the suspicion. Since then, I have become friends with the owner of this East Building. However, I don't usually like to join in the fun, so I have never set foot here. Today is my first time here."
"Then I've got a great deal." Qin Huiyin stood in front of the window, looking down at the entire East City. The candlelight was indeed like stars, bright and beautiful. "The capital city is really different."
Song Ruize walked over, stood beside her, and looked at the beautiful scenery of East City.
He had been in Beijing for more than two years, drifting like duckweed. Tonight, looking at the beauty of the capital again, the feeling was different, as if I had felt its bustle and beauty for the first time.
'Donglou' is a city that never sleeps, and the guests here almost live a life of drunkenness and debauchery, so it is closed during the day but not at night.
Qin Huiyin and Song Ruize had a midnight snack and enjoyed the beautiful scenery of East City. When they thought it was almost time, they left the East Building.
Song Ruize did not send her back to the Tang family, but took her to the Song residence.
Qin Huiyin spent her first night in Beijing at the Song residence.
The next day, Song Ruize got up before dawn. After packing up, he went out and stopped when he passed the door next to him.
He called over the servants who were passing by, gave them a few instructions, asking them not to disturb Qin Huiyin's rest, and then strode away.
Now Jiang Qibin and others have also entered the military department to serve. Although the official position is not high, but at least they are captains, in charge of dozens of people.
Chen Yong came over and whispered, "Last night, the thieves from West City robbed a few of us again. The crime originally happened in our East City, but the thieves hid in West City, and those sons of bitches in West City caught them and robbed us again. Boss, West City is always so shameless and despicable. We can't just sit there and wait for death."
"The West City Commander is jealous of our Brother Ze and is always looking for trouble with us," Jiang Qibin said. "He has a strong backer, and we're grassroots, so how can we shake him?"
"We can't shake it, but there are people who can." Song Ruize said calmly, "Isn't Commander Nancheng a very useful chess piece?"
"Yes, the commander of Nancheng is the younger brother of the empress in the palace. Although he is brave, he is not wise, has a dull mind, and is undoubtedly a fool. If we let them fight, we can reap the benefits." Zhou Jinyuan said.
"Qingnan, you don't have to go anywhere these days. Follow Yinyin and build the store she's about to open. From what I've seen so far, it would be best if it were located in our East City."
If she opened it in East City, his people would be able to look after it at any time. If she opened it in other areas, all kinds of "filial piety" would be enough to make her lose a lot of money.
"Don't worry, Brother Ze, I will take care of this matter." Jiang Qingnan said.
When Qin Huiyin woke up, the sun was already high in the sky. She didn't eat breakfast and hurried back to the Tang residence.
Xia Ruwan was waiting for her at home. Seeing her come back, she said sourly, "Did you have fun last night?"
"I just went out for a walk to get familiar with the road so that I can take you out to play tonight." Qin Huiyin came closer. "I haven't had breakfast yet. I'm starving."
"It's this late, why bother eating breakfast? Just have lunch with it." Xia Ruwan said, "Our mission these days is to familiarize ourselves with the environment of the capital. I just asked Aunt Li, and she said she's been to the capital before and isn't interested here. We'll take your sister and brother out for a walk, and buy your brother a gift for his new master."
Qin Huiyin asked Zhilan to call Tang Luwu and Tang Yixiao over, and they went shopping together.
The capital city is very big. If you visit one area a day, it will take several days to see most of it.
