Chapter 487 Underneath This Smile Lies the Dark Side of the City

If Wu Ge directly said that Lu Yongjun pushed him, no one would believe it.

On the contrary, everyone will think that Wu Ge has just returned to the officialdom, so he is cautious and wants to push his colleagues to step down.

Only slowly, and then grabbed Lu Yongjun's braid.

On this day, the fifth princess had just finished praying to the Buddha from the temple.

He was riding a carriage to the mansion.

Over the years, she has gone to the temple to burn incense and worship Buddha every month.

The one who prayed was naturally hoping that the boy in his heart could live in peace.

However, these days, it's not like she hasn't heard people say that Wuge is back.

That's why she went to the temple today to thank the Buddha for his protection.

Unfortunately, everything has changed.

When the boy came back, she had no face to see him, nor could she see him.

A while later, when passing a cloth shop, she asked the driver to stop.

It's almost March now, and summer is coming soon, and it's time to buy some cloth for the house.

When the maids and eunuchs came out holding the bought cloth, they bumped into the man coming out of the opposite restaurant.

With just one glance, the fifth princess recognized each other.

Isn't that... the boy she's been thinking of?

But she raised her head to look at the plaque of the restaurant, and saw that there were three large characters sprinkled with gold on it: Lichunyuan.

Even she who seldom goes out knows that this is the most famous brothel in the capital.

For a moment, her heart throbbed with pain.

I had no choice but to comfort myself that he was just passing by on errands and would not be so depraved.

But her gaze swept behind Wuge, followed by two beautiful and enchanting brothel girls.

Seeing this scene, she turned around and left immediately.

But a masculine man's voice came from behind: "Hey, isn't this the fifth princess?"

The voice made the fifth princess tremble, and she, who had always known etiquette, had no choice but to turn her head and pull a forced smile at Wu Ge.

However, she tightly gathered the handkerchief in her hand, not daring to raise her head at all.

Wuge walked in front of the fifth princess, knelt down on one knee, clenching his fists to support the ground, and only got up after hitting him a thousand times.

"Princess, long time no see." His voice was low and hoarse.

It was a sad voice that could never be healed after the heart was torn apart.

The fifth princess was startled by his voice.

The boy's voice has not changed, but his voice is no longer sunny.

Instead, there is helpless sadness and heavy desolation.

She raised her head, and the boy's face was within easy reach.

Just seeing it from a distance, she couldn't control her emotions.

Now when I look up, I can see his handsome face that is finely crafted.

With a straight nose and perfect curvature of his lips, he was holding a slight smile.

It's just that this smile is completely different from before.

Speaking of the previous Wuge, the smile is sunny and handsome, it seems that the sunshine can suddenly push away the darkness from the clouds.

So now, his smile reveals a touch of alienation, and a touch of gloom.

It seems that under this smile, there is an extremely dark side of the city.

What did he go through?

It seems that it is so familiar, but so strange.

Facing the most familiar stranger, the fifth princess' eyes turned red unconsciously.

Those bright and clear phoenix eyes were lightly covered with a layer of mist, as if they would collapse at any moment, tears streaming down their face.

"Hey, princess, why did my eyes turn red when I saw it? If someone else sees it, they will say that I bullied you." The corner of Wuge's mouth raised a playful smile.

Those eyes that were slightly alienated lightly swept over the little woman.

She was wearing a light pink flag dress with plum blossom embroidery on it.

There are two small combs on the head, and a few pearl flower hairpins are pinned in the hair.

At this time, in his eyes, she no longer had the elegant and graceful appearance of the past.

It's a pitiful look of meeting an old lover, recalling scenes of the past, and turning red when seeing each other.

The fifth princess heard and saw his indifference.

She shrugged her nose, pretending to be indifferent and said: "It's nothing, it's windy in spring, and the sand got into my eyes."

"Sometimes the wind is so strong that it can not only blow the eyes of popular people, but also cover people's eyes with a layer of fog, making it difficult to recognize people." He said, and glanced at an oiran beside him.

The two oirans beside him fell into his arms together.

He also hugged left and right unceremoniously, just like a playboy.

Seeing this, the fifth princess endured the pain in her heart, and persuaded her: "You have just returned to the capital now, and you have become the governor of the capital. If you want to marry a wife, many daughters in the capital may step on the threshold, so why should you?" Looking for these will ruin your reputation."

She spoke the truth.

Even if it is impossible for her and Wuge, she still hopes that he will live well.

Instead of being a philanderer, willing to degenerate.

In these years, every time there is a famous lady Jiji in the capital, she will pay attention to it.

Seeing a beautiful and talented woman, I fantasized about whether she would become his wife if he returned to Beijing, and then felt a throbbing pain in my heart.

But Wuge smiled contemptuously, and even lowered his head and smiled charmingly at the oiran on the right.

Then he raised his head, looked at the fifth princess, and said indifferently: "What's wrong with the brothel girl? Du Shiniang sank the treasure chest in anger, and jumped into the rolling waves. Su Dongpo's confidant in adversity, Wang Chaoyun, accompanied him through the most difficult days. In my eyes, some famous ladies are not as good as brothel girls."

The fifth princess was stunned.

She really couldn't believe that such an unbelievable sentence was actually uttered from the mouth of that well-behaved man with good character.

"I've seen a brothel woman who secretly asked people to bring money to her family for medical treatment. I've also seen a gentle, virtuous and virtuous lady in front of others, and an arrogant and domineering lady who beat her maid to death when she turned around. "

Having said that, he paused slightly, looking at the fifth princess with piercing eyes.

He said coldly: "I have seen that kind of woman who kept saying that she would wait for the man to come back, but ended up saying it better than singing, and turning around, she was unwilling to be lonely and get married."

Looking at the young man in front of him and listening to what he said, the fifth princess was heartbroken.

Obviously he didn't even dare to touch her before.

Now, in broad daylight, in front of everyone, he hugged two brothel girls.

He had changed, completely, inside and out!

At this time, the maid next to the fifth princess finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Do you know, my princess wants to..."

"Okay, don't talk about it." The fifth princess stopped it in a timely manner without waiting for the maid to explain.
