After hanging in Huaqing Pond where Yang Guifei and Tang Minghuang took a mandarin duck bath, Zhuang Rui and his entourage returned to the hotel, the bathhouse used by Tang Minghuang and Yang Guifei has long become a place of interest, no matter how rich you are, you also want to take a bath there.

Of course, the hot springs of Huaqing Pond are not the only one, next to the Huaqing Pool Scenic Area, there are dozens of hot spring bathing centers of all sizes, such as the five-star hotel where Zhuang Rui lives, the name is Huaqing International Hot Spring Hotel, as the name suggests, in the hotel, there is the premier hot spring spa project of Huaqing Pool.
The hot springs in the hotel are generally divided into indoor hot springs and outdoor hot springs, with indoor hot springs being separate for men and women and allowing everyone to meet each other in good faith, while outdoor hot springs are bathing suits and men and women are in the same hot spring pool.
Zhuang Rui asked everyone's opinions, can see beauties in public, especially the beauties will wear very few clothes, of course the men are clamoring to go to the outdoor hot spring, and even Xiaolei, the girl, wants to soak in the outdoor hot spring, at the moment everyone bought a swimsuit and entered the locker room, and came to the hot spring area after changing clothes.
The hot spring area of the hotel occupies a large area, almost the size of a football field, distributed with one or two dozen large and small pools, in which many pavilions and pavilions have been built, planted with a variety of precious evergreen plants, the pool water is full of mist, steam, making the whole hot spring area like a fairyland.
After walking in, Zhuang Rui found that there was a delicate wooden sign on the edge of each pool, which explained in detail the efficacy of the pool water, beauty, fitness, weight loss, etc., and next to each pool, there was a wisp of sandalwood to drive away the sulfur smell of natural hot spring water.
However, after looking around for a while, a group of old men were slightly disappointed, Xiaolei had not come out to change her clothes, probably because the current climate was not the time to soak in the hot springs, and in the huge hot spring area, it seemed that just a few of them seemed to be very deserted.
The weather in Shaanxi in May is still a little cold, a little unbearable to stay on it for a long time, Zhuang Rui found a largest pool, saw that the effect written on it is to eliminate fatigue, and immediately reached out to test the water temperature, turned his face to everyone and said: "Yes, I will say a few, let's go down......"
Although the ability in Zhuang Rui's eyes can help him relieve his physical fatigue, he is still a little nervous during this time, and after sinking his body into the water, especially when the water outlet hole behind him beats Zhuang Rui's waist like a massager, the comfortable Zhuang Rui almost moaned.
"Hey, I said you two boys are hanging around or something, why don't you hurry down?"
Zhuang Rui leaned his head on the edge of the pool, and when he opened his eyes, he found that only Peng Fei and Dr. Ren had gone into the water, not counting Xiao Lei, who had not yet come out, and the two graduate students were wandering around.
There was a laughter more than ten meters away: "Hehe, Brother Zhuang, go down immediately, there is mist everywhere, let's observe clearly......"
"Damn, I've never seen a woman? It's not stripped naked, but there are more ...... in the swimming pool and the beach in summer."
Peng Fei muttered angrily, but his eyes were looking at the two boys, saying that Peng Fei also loves life, he had imagined that he could meet a few foreign girls, and he was quite disappointed after coming in.
"Why are we so unlucky, this ...... It's just us, oh my God...... Where's the beauty?!"
Among the graduate students who carried out field archaeology with Zhuang Rui this time, there was a Tianjin man named Xiao Jia, who had a very lively personality, and after coming back from a circle around the hot spring area, he went down to the pool with a depressed face and exaggerated screamed, with the Tianjin dialect that the people of the whole country wanted to laugh at, so that the silent hot spring area was full of laughter.
Peng Fei has a good relationship with the cheerful Xiao Jia these days, and scolded with a smile when he heard the words: "You kid, it's good to have a hot spring bath, what's the matter, you still want to enjoy the treatment of Emperor Tang Ming, and give you the whole Yang Guifei?"
"Brother Peng, Yang Guifei is here......"
Suddenly, Xiao Jia's eyes looked at Peng Fei's back a little dullly, and he looked like a pig brother, and the corners of his mouth barely drooled.
"Also...... It's really Yang Guifei, I didn't see it, Xiaolei's figure is so good......"
Peng Fei turned his head, but it was Xiao Lei who changed into a swimsuit and walked out of the locker room, Xiao Lei, who originally didn't look like a mountain dew, put on a swimsuit, and immediately revealed her figure, the slightly plump white skin was really a little similar to the portrait of Yang Guifei I saw in the morning.
After Xiao Lei walked to the hot spring area, she was also attracted by the scenery here, stood there and stopped, and Xiao Jia, who was anxious, shouted loudly: "Xiao Lei, this way...... This ......"
"Stinky boy, are you so anxious? Xiao Lei can't look down on you......" Peng Fei smiled and slapped Xiao Jia on the head.
"Hey, there's someone in the back?"
Xiao Jia's eyes were sharp, and he suddenly found that behind Xiao Lei, three more women came out.
Compared with Xiao Lei's relatively conservative swimsuit, these three women are wearing bikinis, and it is estimated that the combined pieces of cloth on their bodies are a little more than Xiao Jia's swimming trunks, and the snow-white skin dazzles the eyes of many men, and even Dr. Ren can't help but take a few more looks.
After Zhuang Rui glanced at it, he turned his gaze, lightly hit the water in the lower pool with his hand and splashed it on several people, and said, "Don't stare at others, it's rude ......"
Although these women are in good shape and their appearance is also superior, the makeup on their faces is a little too thick, Zhuang Rui doesn't like this type very much, but at this moment in his mind, he is fantasizing about what it will be like if Miss Miao wears a swimsuit?
"Zhuang ...... Brother Zhuang, she ...... They don't care......"
Xiao Jia's stumbling words interrupted Zhuang Rui's conjecture, Zhuang Rui frowned when he heard this, and then raised his eyes, and sure enough, as Xiao Jia said, those women saw the men in the pool looking at them, but they began to make a gesture around their heads, and kept throwing flattering glances at a few people, and Xiao Jia's laughter was about to flow down.
"Damn, you can't be a little longer, this ...... At first glance, she is a young lady, Xiao Jia, quickly wipe your mouth, shame on you......"
As soon as Zhuang Rui turned around, Xiao Jia's mouth really drooled, and Zhuang Rui couldn't laugh or cry when he saw it, these women designated as the young ladies brought by some guests, otherwise they wouldn't be so debauched, but then again, just in terms of body and appearance, the quality of the young ladies who are now engaged in this ancient industry is getting higher and higher.
In our country, the earliest origin of prostitution, probably embryonic in the era of King Xiang of Zhou, Qi State Guan Zhongzhi set up a female Lu, that is, its initiator, can be regarded as the first generation of chicken heads, since the beginning of the "female Lu", to the Tang Dynasty, it is considered to have reached the peak, divided into two kinds of prostitutes and prostitutes, the so-called "Beili", "Pingkangli" and "Jiaofang".
Jiaofang was originally an official art rehearsal institution, which was in charge of haiyu acrobatics and teaching court folk music, among which highly skilled artists could often perform for the emperor, starting from Tang Gaozu and later established in the Song, Jin, Yuan and Ming dynasties.
When he arrived at the time of Ming Wuzong, he recruited all the outstanding artists of the teaching workshop into the palace and performed in the court all the year round, and the teaching workshop outside the palace was difficult to maintain due to the loss of excellent artists and began to decline, so that it later merged with the surrounding brothels, so that after the teaching workshop arrived in the Ming Dynasty, it became a brothel.
In addition to the above, there were also official prostitutes in ancient dynasties, most of whom belonged to the status of slaves, and most of them were criminals, family members of criminals, human traffickers or prisoners of war, and they were not paid. Since they have no personal freedom at all, there is no possibility of changing their status, except for a very small number.
For example, Zhang Chuchen, the wife of the Tang Dynasty general Li Jing, was the courtesan of Yang Su, a powerful minister of the Sui Dynasty, and the daughter-in-law of Han Shizhong of the Song Dynasty, the famous anti-gold heroine Liang Hongyu, was reduced to a Jingkou camp prostitute due to the decay of the family road, that is, the official prostitute managed by the state and county governments.
At the beginning, the ancients called the women engaged in this profession, most of them were called Qinglou women, Fengchen women, and the names in various places were various, such as Beijing local dialect called Secret Menzi, Hangzhou local dialect called eating leg rice, Hunan native language called putting on the plate, before the liberation of the northern Jianghu dialect called prostitute horses, and after the Northern Song Dynasty, the consumption level of relatively low level of erotic places was uniformly called Sister Yao.
For a long time after the liberation, this kind of profession that has been inherited for thousands of years has disappeared for a time, but since the eighties, with the men who love life, the pursuit of quality of life, the sublimation of spiritual life, and the call of the broad masses of the people, this profession has rejuvenated in various places.
It's just that the title of "Miss", which was a bit of a petty bourgeoisie before liberation, was given to this professional practitioner, and the society was a change in color, and those ten-year-old girls would rather be called "big sister" when they were old, rather than be called Miss by others.
Of course, this profession is the same as in ancient times, it is also divided into three, six, nine and so on, just like Li Shishi in the Southern Song Dynasty, Chen Yuanyuan in the early Qing Dynasty, Xiao Fengxian in the late Qing Dynasty, and the so-called four famous prostitutes Qin Huai Bayan, these are the oiran in the "Miss", which cannot be compared with those women in the eight major alleys in Beijing before the liberation.
Zhuang Rui often goes out with Ouyang Jun on some occasions in Beijing, and the quality of the young lady there is much higher than that of the women in front of him, not only with good looks and figures, but also with high culture, at the very least, he will never make such a move to seduce men in public.
A little funny looked at the "young ladies" who were fascinated by the two junior brothers of Xiao Jia, Zhuang Rui was about to say something to wake them up, and three or four men came out from the exit of the men's locker room next to him.
