Chapter 73 Liao Kingdom Spy
Liu Xianglan laughed very heroically, without any awareness of hiding her teeth.

Zhang Qinghe covered her forehead and said, "If your previous mother saw you like this, she would make you stand in the corner as punishment."

Liu Xianglan said with a smile: "Sister Qinghe, do you know why I want to become the most beautiful woman in Jiujiang Tower? It's just so I can laugh when I want to laugh and cry when I want to cry.

If I want to laugh but can't, and want to cry but can't, what's the point of being an Oiran?"

Zhang Qinghe was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's true."

Liu Xianglan smiled and said, "Tell me, Sister Qinghe, you seem to be very worried today, what happened?"

Zhang Qinghe asked, "Sister Xianglan, do you know Jiangyou Sulang?"

Liu Xianglan nodded and said, "I've been hearing all about him recently, how could I not know? Yes, I heard that Su Yun came to our Jiujiang Building last night and went to Lihua Garden..."

Liu Xianglan looked at Zhang Qinghe and said with a smile: "...Sister Qinghe, are you afraid that Sister Lihua will take your top spot?"

Zhang Qinghe shook her head and said, "It doesn't matter whether I'm the top star or not, I just feel uncomfortable."

"Uncomfortable?" Liu Xianglan's beautiful eyes showed a strange color, "Sister likes this Jiangyou Su Lang?"

Zhang Qinghe smiled bitterly and said, "How can we talk about liking or not? People like us are not qualified to like others. I just like his lyrics."

Liu Xianglan laughed and said, "What are you talking about? What do you mean people like us are not qualified? If I like someone, I dare to love him even if he is the emperor. If I don't like someone, even if he carries a thousand pounds of gold to find me..."

Liu Xianglan hesitated for a moment: "...Tsk, it's too much, I still have to take it."

At this moment, Zhang Qinghe finally couldn't help laughing, and pointed at Liu Xianglan and said breathlessly: "Can't you have a little backbone?"

Liu Xianglan couldn't laugh, and said quietly: "I don't need anything else, but I still need money. Many mothers-in-law and sisters are sick and need medicine, and many little brothers and sisters need food and drink. It's impossible without money."

Zhang Qinghe couldn't laugh anymore and was silent for a while. Then he said, "Sister, I'll give you a thousand strings of cash for use first."

Liu Xianglan shook her head and laughed, "I still have money. I'm just saying that if someone really offers that much money, I won't be able to refuse it, haha."

Her beautiful eyes turned, and there seemed to be autumn tears flowing in them. Although she was wearing plain peasant girl's clothes, in an instant she was more beautiful than any other woman in the world.

She smiled and said, "Sister, Su Yun has only published three poems so far, two of which were written last night and today. Before that, only one poem, Linjiangxian, was circulated. Did you fall in love with him just because of Linjiangxian?"

Zhang Qinghe patted Liu Xianglan and said angrily, "How can love be so exaggerated? I just think Linjiangxian is well written. Although it is about men's affairs, it is also true for us humble women.

No matter whether you are a hero or a famous prostitute, it will all be in vain. In the end, you will still have white hair as a fisherman or woodcutter on the river bank, accustomed to watching the autumn moon and spring breeze.

If you and I can still happily meet again decades later, by then, all the past and present events will just be a joke."

Liu Xianglan clapped her hands when she heard this and was delighted: "Sister Qinghe is indeed the most proficient poet in the Three Gardens. You have been able to interpret this."

Zhang Qinghe nodded and said, "This poem touched my heart, but it didn't matter at the moment. It wasn't until I heard last night that Su Yun went to Lihua Garden that I felt very uncomfortable. I don't know if it was jealousy or something else, but I felt very uncomfortable anyway."

Liu Xianglan thought for a moment and said, "Sister Qinghe probably thought of Su Lang as her confidant, but he went to show his affection to other women, so she must be very uncomfortable.

But sister, don't worry. It seems that Su Lang looks down on Li Lihua. You see, he wrote the lyrics last night and ran away. Even if we caught him, we couldn't invite him back. Today, I heard that Master Zhang went to invite him again, but he couldn't come back either.

So, sister, Su Lang has no interest in Li Lihua at all, you can rest assured. "Zhang Qinghe sighed and nodded, "I think so. I feel much better after talking to you. Okay, I'm going back. I have to start working again soon."

Liu Xianglan smiled and said, "That's good. I'll give you one thousand strings of cash for the medical treatment."

Zhang Qinghe rolled her eyes at Liu Xianglan and said, "I just gave it to you but you didn't want it. Now you come to ask me for it again?"

Liu Xianglan said sternly: "Of course I don't want it if you give it to me for free, but I want the income from my hard work to be justified."

Zhang Qinghe smiled and said, "I'll have someone bring it over later."

Upon hearing this, Liu Xianglan stood up and saluted, saying, "I would like to thank Sister Qinghe on behalf of those old sisters and the poor children. I will tell them that this is a gift from Sister Qinghe."

Zhang Qinghe shook her head and said, "I don't care about these. I'm leaving."

Zhang Qinghe stood up and left. Liu Xianglan walked her to the side door. After the side door was closed, Liu Xianglan stood there for a while, looking thoughtful. Then she chuckled and said, "Jiangyou Su Lang, quite interesting."

She turned and walked back to her own courtyard. At this time, a young man appeared in the hall. The young man had a stern face. He sat on a chair with his legs crossed, playing with a jade Pixiu ornament.

Liu Xianglan asked, "Did you hear everything?"

The young man smiled lightly, his expression a little ferocious, and said: "I heard it, he is just a playboy, there is nothing to pay attention to."

Liu Xianglan shook her head and said, "Li Chang praised him for his talent, so he should not be underestimated."

The young man laughed and said, "Xia Song has never been so arrogant, and Han Qi is not surprising. The whole river is filled with dragon and tiger chariots, and they are still talking about military strategies.

He is just a corrupt scholar. Even if there is another Han Qi, he will be as cowardly as this one."

Liu Xianglan shook her head and said, "We are not in a position to judge Han Qi's achievements and demerits throughout his life, and Li Chang was just making a metaphor. He may not be like Han Qi. If he is really powerful, he will be a threat to the Liao Dynasty after all."

The young man sneered and nodded, "Okay, I'll kill him right away."

Liu Xianglan shook her head and said, "Killing is only the worst option, don't just kill people when you encounter problems.

First, you should collect all the information about Su Yun, including what he did in Meishan, Bian Jing, all the way south from Bian Jing, and in Huangzhou.

As for how to deal with it later, I will naturally decide."

The young man shrugged indifferently and nodded, "Okay."

Then he staggered over the backyard wall and disappeared.

Liu Xianglan snorted, walked to the bookshelf, pulled out a thick book, turned the pages, and found a hole inside with a scroll.

Liu Xianglan took out the scroll, spread it out, and carefully wrote: Su Yun of Meizhou, Su Lang of Jiangyou, is extremely handsome and good at writing poems. Li Chang, the Xiantai of Huaixi, said that he has the ability of Han Qi.

On the scroll, there are densely packed names and introductions of people.
