Chapter 32: Hello [Happy Lantern Festival to everyone]

At this time, the noise in the brothel was gradually known to guests from other places. As a result, a group of people didn't even care about the people around them when they were doing it. They just came out of the room with a coat on and looked towards the Yunyan River with their heads tilted.

After Peng Qing jumped into the Yunyan River, the other party never showed up again, but the onlookers continued to discuss it with unabated enthusiasm.

For a while, both sides of the Yunyan River were extremely lively. People who didn't know thought that the imperial examination had been moved up, and the Yunyan River Brothel Alliance was going to introduce a new courtesan in advance.

Princess Hongxia, with her feet on the railing, looked at the calm lake. After a long while, the people who were watching on both sides of the river bank had almost dispersed, and she didn't see anyone coming out, so she gritted her teeth in hatred and turned away.

However, at this moment, the madam of the brothel stood up with an apologetic smile and said, "Princess Hong...Princess Hongxia, look at the losses I have suffered..."

Luo Hongxia turned her head and glared at the madam, then said coldly, "Go ask Peng Qing for it!"

The madam kept smiling, but a cold light flashed in her eyes. She said, "Look at what you said. This injustice has its perpetrators. It's you who broke so much of our furniture and ruined the fun of so many of our guests."

Luo Hongxia choked, looked at the mess below that she had smashed, gritted her teeth and said, "Tell me, how much!"

The madam held up two fingers and said, "Not much, not much, just twenty taels..."

"Twenty taels of silver? I'll ask my servants to deliver it to you later!" Luo Hongxia raised her eyebrows and said.

Although twenty taels of silver was a lot, it was still within Luo Hongxia's tolerance. However, the madam's next words made her feel cold all over.

"No, no, it's twenty taels of gold."

Luo Hongxia's eyes widened, and she lost her composure. She shouted, "Gold? Four hundred taels of silver, are you robbing me?"

Facing the questioning of Princess Luo Hongxia, the madam did not panic, but spread her hands and said leisurely: "I didn't make a blind offer, these are all top-quality goods with good documentation! Even if I go to the government, I will have something to say!

Why, as a member of the royal family, you wouldn't demolish someone's brothel without compensation, right? Then I can only report the truth to my boss."

At this point, there was an added threat in the madam's words, and when Luo Hongxia heard that the other party was going to report this to the so-called boss, her expression instantly turned ugly.

Obviously, she couldn't afford to offend the owner behind this brothel.

"You..." Luo Hongxia gritted her teeth, and her straight waist finally collapsed. She said with humiliation: "Twenty taels of gold, the day after tomorrow... the day after tomorrow I will send someone to deliver it!"

The madam then smiled and complimented Luo Hongxia, "Hehe, I knew that Princess Hongxia, as a royal family, would not embarrass us common people. Then I will wait for good news from the princess."

"Humph!"

Faced with the madam's hospitality, Luo Hongxia snorted in disgust, waved her sleeves and walked down the stairs.

After Luo Hongxia left, the madam immediately changed her demeanor. She spat at Luo Hongxia's back and said with disdain, "Bah! What a thing! You really think you are a princess just because I call you princess? Who are you showing off your serious face to? You deserve it that your man has to come to our Yihonglou every day to have fun!"

Just as Luo Hongxia came downstairs and was about to ride her red horse to leave, the customers who had not yet left the brothel suddenly discovered something on the river surface, and shouted in surprise: "It's the Prince Consort!"

"The Prince Consort has shown up!"

"Wow, you've been holding your breath for a long time. Your Majesty, did you practice the Turtle Breathing Technique? Hahaha..."

"Hey, Princess, your man is out!"

Someone who wanted to watch the fun opened the window and shouted to Luo Hongxia who was about to leave: "Hey, your man is swimming towards the other side now!"

Luo Hongxia instantly became furious and whipped the horse hard on its butt. The horse, in pain, ran away carrying Luo Hongxia.

After getting on the bridge, Luo Hongxia immediately saw the gray-haired figure swimming towards the other side of the river. She immediately shouted angrily: "Peng Qing!!!"

When the man in the river heard Luo Hongxia's voice, he paused, as if he was looking back to observe the distance, and then swam towards the shore at a faster speed.

Seeing this, Luo Hongxia squeezed the horse's belly hard, and the horse neighed and ran away. At this speed, the consort named Peng Qing would probably be caught by Luo Hongxia not long after he swam ashore.

So after Peng Qing got ashore, he covered his private parts and looked around. He saw a pile of baskets near the corner, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Just as he was about to hide, he saw many passers-by watching him. So he immediately scolded them fiercely: "Behave yourself! If you dare to expose my whereabouts, I will make sure that you will live a life worse than death in Yundu City!"

As soon as these words were spoken, many passers-by immediately turned their heads and walked away quickly as if they had not seen anything. However, Peng Qing found that there was still a pair of eyes looking at him with interest.

It's like watching a monkey.

"What are you looking at? I've never seen anything this big!"

Peng Qing pointed across the street at Zhang Wei, his threat obvious. Then he immediately hid in the basket pile.

Less than half a minute after he hid, a beautiful figure riding a tall horse caught up with him.

“Ouch—”

Luo Hongxia pulled the reins and began to look for Peng Qing everywhere.

At this time, Zhang Wei finally saw the true face of Princess Hongxia, who was slapped by the evil slave of the Yang family but had to swallow her anger.

There is no doubt that Luo Hongxia is very beautiful. She is not inferior to the most beautiful woman Zhang Wei has ever seen, his sister Jun Qiu.

She is about twenty-three or twenty-four years old, and even without makeup, she has an alluring charm that can captivate the whole country.

What is most unforgettable is her eyes.

Her eyes were not as gentle as Liang Junqiu's, but rather sharp, giving people a sense of aggression. If she looked at people sideways, she would appear even more arrogant.

The slightly upturned corners of her eyes make the whites of the left and right sides of her eyes appear, which is truly a three-white drooping eye.

As for the figure... I won't mention it. Zhang Wei couldn't help but look at the pear-shaped buttocks. Riding on a horse, the shape of the front and back is very prominent.

Zhang Wei couldn't help but wonder when he saw it.

Princess Hongxia looks like this. Are you, Peng Qing, crazy for going to a brothel to look for prostitutes? Isn't this better than the prostitutes in the brothel?
Or is it that domestic flowers are not as fragrant as wild flowers?

Seeing that she couldn't find any trace of Peng Qing, Luo Hongxia could only ask for help from passers-by around her. She asked, "Where did that beast Peng Qing go? If anyone can tell me, I will send him..."

Luo Hongxia couldn't continue talking halfway, because she suddenly remembered that she was not well off financially at the moment. But the words had already been spoken, so she could only grit her teeth and pull out a hairpin from her head.

"This hairpin is a royal tribute, worth at least a hundred taels! It's yours." Luo Hongxia said, holding a phoenix hairpin inlaid with jadeite.

However, even though Luo Hongxia had said this, the passers-by around her still didn't give her face.

"Hehe, Princess Hongxia, no one knows where the prince consort has gone."

"Yes, it's not convenient for outsiders like us to interfere in your affairs."

"Princess Hongxia, let me tell you about this. As someone who has experienced this, I think this is your fault. If you didn't beat the Prince Consort every day, he wouldn't have come to a place like this, right?"

"Hahaha……"

The rude ridicule from the crowd made Luo Hongxia's pretty face turn blue and red, and her hands holding the reins began to tremble. "You...you guys..."

"Ugh, cough, cough..."

At this time, a sudden coughing and vomiting sound came into Luo Hongxia's ears from the street. Looking in the direction of the sound, she saw a young man in gorgeous clothes bending over and coughing.

However, when she looked over, the young man immediately returned to normal, weighing a piece of gravel in his hand and throwing it into the sky.

The gravel drew a parabola and accurately hit the pile of baskets on the opposite side.

whoosh...pop!

"what!"

A scream of pain came from the basket, and Peng Qing fell to the ground with his head covered, and a pile of white flesh was exposed to the air.

"Which bastard threw the stone?" Peng Qing stood up and cursed, holding his head and grabbing the rubble.

Then he saw Luo Hongxia, with a frosty face, looking at him coldly.

The street fell silent for a moment.

Seeing Luo Hongxia dismount and lift the reins, Peng Qing's face suddenly changed and he shouted, "Wait, Hongxia, please give me some face outside...ah!"

Snapped!
The horsewhip was swung out without any mercy, directly hitting Peng Qing's white flesh.

In an instant, Peng Qing's pampered skin was torn open, revealing a large wound.

"Peng Qing, you are so brave!"

Luo Hongxia cursed, but at the same time she felt unsatisfied, so she swung the whip again.

"Ah! Luo Hongxia! You really don't give me any face at all! Ah!"

Peng Qing was whipped so hard that he grimaced but he dared not resist and could only jump up and down to avoid the beatings. However, even so, he still received a lot of beatings.

It would have been fine if he hadn't said anything. As soon as he said it, Luo Hongxia got even angrier. She pointed at Peng Qing's nose and cursed, "Face? Do you have any, you loser?! Get back here! If I hear you fooling around and talking nonsense again, I'll cut off your three legs with my own hands!"

"you……"

Peng Qing pointed at Luo Hongxia with a look of defiance, but when he saw the other party's whip raised again, he finally succumbed to reality.

After beating and scolding Peng Qing, Luo Hongxia turned around and thanked Zhang Wei: "Thanks, it's yours."

After saying that, she handed over the jadeite phoenix hairpin in her hand.

Peng Qing, who hadn't left yet, also reacted when he saw this. He pointed at Zhang Wei and said, "Okay, it's you... You stinky boy, you're so idle, aren't you meddling in other people's business?"

Without waiting for Zhang Wei to speak, Luo Hongxia whipped the horsewhip, making a crisp sound that scared Peng Qing.

"roll!"

Luo Hongxia scolded, and Peng Qing left with his head down unwillingly, but before leaving, he still glared at Zhang Wei fiercely. That expression seemed to be saying, "Just wait and see, kid!"
After Peng Qing left, Zhang Wei did not take Luo Hongxia's jadeite phoenix hairpin, but said: "No need, I'm just taking revenge. After all, he scolded me first, and..."

At this point, Zhang Wei's expression was a little strange, but he still said frankly: "Besides, this hairpin is actually not that valuable. Although it is called a royal tribute, it is obviously used by the subordinates to deceive the Ministry of Internal Affairs for kickbacks. I can get you three of these for ten taels."

"Well……"

Luo Hongxia's hand holding the emerald phoenix hairpin froze in mid-air, and her pretty face turned red. Zhang Wei could clearly read the emotion of embarrassment on her face.

After shaking his head and laughing helplessly twice, Zhang Wei turned around and left with Zhang Da. Before leaving, Luo Hongxia couldn't help asking, "Thank you. By the way, what's your name?"

"Just call me a good person..."

Zhang Wei replied without even turning his head and walked away in a carefree manner.

In his opinion, this matter was just a matter of convenience because he saw that Luo Hongxia was pretty, and he didn't take it too seriously. It didn't cost him anything to help, and he got to watch a good show for free.

As for the son-in-law Peng Qing, Zhang Wei didn't take him seriously either.

What kind of background could a consort who could easily bully an unpopular princess have? If he really dared to cause trouble for him, Zhang Wei would simply go all out and make Princess Hongxia a widow.

It is extremely easy for a cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining to kill an ordinary person.

Looking at Zhang Wei's departing back, Luo Hongxia held the hairpin and said to herself with a strange look on her face: "? Is there any family with a good surname in Yundu City?"

……

After returning from the Ten Miles Fireworks and Romance Vengeance, Zhang Wei asked Zhang Da to ask for a few days off for him, and sent letters to Zhang Hui and Shi Xin of the Imperial Academy respectively, saying that he had been injured by drinking at the classmate party and needed to recuperate for a while, so don't worry about Yunyun. Then he left Yundu in secret and went to Chuyun Market again to buy spiritual materials.

Mr. Zhang was the first one in the Imperial College to ask for leave and skip classes at the beginning of the school year.

In the market town, Zhang Wei easily purchased all the materials and equipment he needed for refining equipment with his money. He couldn't wait any longer and directly rented a yard in the inn in Izumo market town and started his first refining journey!
"Success or failure depends on this one move!"

Looking at the pile of materials in front of him, Zhang Wei took out his long knife again, stroked the blade gently, and said, "I hope my idea is correct."

Then Zhang Wei chanted a spell with his left hand, and the long sword in his right hand began to burn with flames. Under the scorching heat of the spiritual fire, the entire long sword began to turn red at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then slowly softened.

"Silver is the network, gold is the node, and the center stone is the transmission core..."

Zhang Wei silently recited the material formula of the Qinggang Sword. At the same time, he used his spiritual power to lift pieces of spiritual materials, melted them with the fire of spiritual power, and slowly integrated them into the reshaped iron embryo.

This step is the most critical, and there are strict requirements on the order of input of spiritual materials. Any disruption of the order will lead to the failure of the final magic weapon.

At the same time, this step also places extremely high demands on the quality of the weapon refiner, because it requires the weapon refiner to take into account multiple spiritual materials at the same time. The difficulty of working on multiple fronts is comparable to that of an alchemist refining several furnaces of pills at the same time.

However, Zhang Wei discovered that with his obviously unique spiritual awareness, this step might be difficult for other weapon refiners, but for him... it seemed to be no big deal?
With his spiritual awareness, he could easily grasp every change in the spiritual materials when refining the magic weapon, and then easily make corresponding adjustments.

With this talent, the centering stone was integrated into the iron embryo, and then the silver turned into a network, and the gold particles acted as nodes for the transmission of spiritual power...

When the last kind of spiritual material specially used for rust prevention turned into a thin film and wrapped around the surface of the iron embryo, Zhang Wei suddenly closed his palms.

Spiritual power gushed out instantly, like a pair of big hands tightly grasping the magic weapon embryo, and then just like kneading plasticine, the magic weapon embryo slowly changed into the shape of a sword!
"Change it!"

Zhang Wei shouted in a low voice, and the sword-shaped embryo instantly made a strange buzzing sound. Then the red surface due to the high temperature instantly faded away, and was replaced by a cold light mixed with silver threads and golden spots!

A three-foot-long sword appeared in front of Zhang Wei!

"Success!"
