Quick Transmigration: Leisure

March 17th, Bianjing (Kaifeng).

It was noisy early in the morning, and the news was spreading very fast. If there isn't a capable person to handle it, it might turn into a farce that's hard to control.

The person who led the inspection team to Feihua Pavilion was very familiar with Panlan. The instructions they received were not very detailed. They only said that someone had taken advantage of the chaos of hanging up the plaques last night, mainly to check the flower plaques.

Xia Youmi, disguised as Panlan, gathered everyone together, except for Mi Ye, who was on sick leave.

Even Zhou Yin was there. She stood at the head of the line, her bewildered eyes meeting the inspector's gaze, showing no remorse whatsoever, just as she had during countless inspections before.

After confirming the contents of the roster, Xia Youmi invited everyone away for tea, and then went to wake up Mi Ye.

However, the other party was dragging his sick body around, touching a large bag of reward money, so the inspector still gave Panlan face and allowed Xinrong to invite her to take a look at it in person.

Only a minor official with distinctive features followed her, and as they went back and forth, Xia Youmi lay there, revealing her pale and ashen face.

It really startled people, and they secretly sighed that it was a real pity.

They were listed on the same day, but the buyers were different, and this one even paid an extra tael of silver.

But the older sister, Zhou Yin, seemed perfectly fine, as if she hadn't suffered at all, while the younger sister looked like she was about to pass away at any moment.

No wonder Panlan looked worried.

The accusers sent them on a trip, probably hoping to take the opportunity to suppress Feihua Pavilion, so that they would close the building again and take back all the silver that had just been deposited.

黑，

What a dark heart.

Their subordinates were not happy to see a large amount of silver taken away at once, as this was like draining the pond to catch all the fish.

Even if the money doesn't end up in their pockets, they'd rather come back every now and then to collect a little bit, at least it's a long-term business.

The more popular Feihua Pavilion becomes, the more comfortable those with good relationships will feel.

Realizing he had been used, the inspector didn't linger and happily took his second reward back to his residence.

The pimp politely saw him off.

Before the opening hours, the girls went back to their rooms one after another, except for Zhouyin, who was called "Mama" and waited outside the door.

Seeing that everything was going smoothly, Xinrong entered the room tremblingly.

inside the door,

It was Xia Youmi, who had changed her appearance once again, and was repairing the innermost layer of the "Panlan" mask.

Xinrong was startled and immediately knelt down.

Xia Youmi didn't say anything. Although she wasn't enough to frighten anyone into trembling, since she had been chosen, it was essential to prepare her demeanor beforehand.

If you are too kind.

She might be obedient at first, but once she gathers evidence or her ambition grows, she might start to push her luck.

Xinrong felt uneasy for a while before taking the initiative to explain the situation outside.

Like the Xia Youmi plan

When Pan Lan appeared, she first entertained the inspector, showing no concern whatsoever about Zhou Yin's disappearance. The inspector, however, had already returned to his room, and Xia Youmi hadn't summoned him.

If it's the same as the original text, then she's arguing with Wen Ziji about whether she'll be punished by her mother.

They didn't apologize first; they were just waiting to see how Panlan reacted before offering their explanation.

then,

Xia Youmi instructed the pimp to give him a second reward after his departure.

Finally, it was clearly stated what Xinrong should do.

She removed the outermost layer of Panlan's mask, leaving behind the second layer of Miye's appearance, with Panlan's makeup underneath as a makeshift solution, naturally appearing ashen and bluish-gray.

Hidden under the covers, unable to see her palms, Xia Youmi would prevent Mi Ye from appearing if it wasn't an old acquaintance, and would simply disappear on the spot.

Fortunately,

There was no situation where Panlan was harassed.

Realizing the raid was pointless, the inspectors left with their men, while the next group of inspectors who were supposed to follow were distracted by the matter at the Zhao residence.

This mask,

Xia Youmi was a bit clumsy using three layers for the first time, and the bottom was a little stuck to the corners. Every year, Ruihua has been thinking about readjusting the proportions. Xia Youmi said that there won't be many opportunities to use the thousand-layer routine in the future, and only when Mi Ye disappears from the public eye can the logic be made.

For a long time,

"Come on, learn how to handle this," Xia Youmi whispered to Xinrong.

"Yes!" Xinrong's eyes lit up with joy.

It's difficult to make a disguise, but it's very easy to destroy. It's just afraid of fire. You can simply collect it, throw it into a fire pit, and burn it clean. The ash left behind is similar to that of spices.

The scent was prepared by Xia Youmi, but it wasn't noticed today because of the rush.

If it were the kind that sings during the day, it would definitely give itself away if it pounced on the sniff.

Or, someone like Fu Miao'an, who specializes in investigating cases, would never overlook the similarities and differences in smells.

Therefore,

You can't use multi-directional flashes too often.

After giving Xinrong a few more instructions, Xia Youmi returned to Panlan's room through the secret passage and let Zhouyin in.

Xia Youmi turned her back to her through the curtain, avoiding eye contact.

Zhou Yin knew she had done wrong, and she lowered her head, waiting for Pan Lan's scolding and punishment.

There was silence.

"Mother... how is Miye?" Zhouyin took the initiative to start a conversation.

Xia Youmi looked disappointed. She followed Panlan's habit and held the jade stone to play with it.

"Let's go."

"Mom!" Zhou Yin looked up, puzzled as to why Pan Lan was scolding her unlike usual.

"Move back to the courtyard. From now on, you don't need to hang the sign anymore. You can leave whenever Wen Ziji redeems you." Xia Youmi spoke slowly, each word deliberate, pointing directly to the truth.

"Mom, I..." Zhou Yin was unable to explain. Having already reached a mutual understanding, she would no longer accept customers, and her mother taking down the sign could be considered an act of granting her wish.

No amount of flattery seems to have any meaning.

After leaving the room, Zhou Yin planned to go see Mi Ye. But as usual, Xin Rong stopped her and gave her a word of advice, which her mother had given her: "You can't have both sisters and outsiders."

The meaning behind the words,

Just like what Lord Wen pointed out.

The younger sister chose to stay at Feihua Pavilion, but she was destined not to belong to this world.

Zhou Yin's thoughts were in disarray, and he couldn't utter a rebuttal.

Wen Ziji, who was supposed to be observing from outside the pavilion, had already been summoned away by a major event at the Zhao residence.

Aside from a few people, almost no one cares about Feihua Pavilion.

The west and east sides of the city were filled with a clamor like the wind as Zhao Yuanqing died on his concubine's bed.

A key minister of the new emperor.

At his age, being able to be on par with Old Master Wen shows that Zhao Yuanqing has a promising future.

Unfortunately, their good days had just begun when they collapsed so rashly.

Zhao Yuanqing has a reputation for bringing misfortune to women.

It's not that they say it's a daughter, but that all women are doomed.

Whether it was his mother, wife, or cousin, without exception, anyone with a close relationship to him died young.

See here,

He couldn't find a suitable wife, and his only children were several sons born to concubines, none of whom were very capable.

The inner quarters are improper, but the outer quarters are quite satisfactory.

The shrewd officials, having just been won over by the new emperor, showered the Zhao family with benefits.

result,

They spread their shameful deeds in such an indecent way.

It's as if they've torn the new emperor's face off.

"Quickly! First, search the Zhao family's treasury and retrieve the silver I bestowed upon them!" The new emperor's first reaction was that the silver couldn't be given to Zhao Yuanqing for nothing; he wanted to get it back to win over people's hearts.

Anyway, since Zhao Yuanqing's mansion was unoccupied, the emperor didn't care about taking it for free.

This time,

Coroners and patrol officers from Kaifeng Prefecture were everywhere.

The illegitimate sons, concubines, and other household members who had fled or seized power were causing chaos.

Passersby were gleefully throwing dirty water at him, and even the emperor sent imperial guards and eunuchs to collect the silver.

There was constant laughter and merriment, and no one was sad.
