Chang'an City, Pingkangfang. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"The southern and middle songs are the best ladies, and the qualifications of the northern songs are very average."
"Worthy of a regular customer, huh?" Jing Ci stared at Li Chen meaningfully.
Li Chen didn't care, and continued: "But let me tell you, Chen Er's family has a lady named Qiaoxi, who is not only pretty, gentle and virtuous, but also specializes in poetry and books, and her reputation is resounding throughout Chang'an City. β
"Is it that powerful? I haven't heard of it. β
"You have been in Chang'an for less than a month, so naturally you haven't heard of it. Besides, you are a woman, how can you ever hear of the famous name that Qiaoxi knows. β
"Oh, look at your spirits. What's wrong with the female stream, I'm a female streamer, don't go to the brothel all the time? β
"The women of the Yang family are really strange people." Li Chen couldn't help but shake his head and muttered.
Jing Ci smiled, "What, you didn't grow up in the Yang family?" Aren't all the Yang family people you come into contact with? β
"I grew up in Lingnan."
"Lingnan?" Jing Ci was surprised, wasn't that barbaric place a place of exile, "I thought it was ...... You grew up in the Yang family. β
"I made sins in my last life, and I had such a mother." Li Chen's expression was quite cold.
Jing Zi pursed his lips, he had heard that Yang Shouyan's first husband was the grandson of Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan, the prince of Guangping County, how could he fall into such a situation...... Come to think of it, the decline of the descendants of the Li family is all related to the Great Sage Empress Zetian.
The branches and leaves of the royal family, but they grew up in Lingnan, which is really pitiful.
He has hatred for his eldest sister, but the eldest sister loves him so much, it seems that he is a mother and son who are enemies.
"You hurry up and prepare some poems, so that when you can see Qiaoxi, you will know that you can't match the poems, and you will lose my face." Speaking of Qiaoxi, he immediately returned to activity.
"Qiaoxi Qiaoxi, you know Qiaoxi, I want to see what kind of corner she is."
When turning the corner, Jing Ci suddenly found that Fang Nian, who had been following him, was gone.
"Fang Nianβ"
Jing Ci couldn't stop looking left and right, and saw that there was no figure of her around, so she turned the horse's head and walked back, where did the girl go? You won't be abducted by human traffickers, will you?
"Hey you-" Li Chen hurriedly turned the horse's head and followed, quite helpless, "Qiaoxi is important, how can there be a reason for the master to find a slave and maid, the cheap maid will naturally run back if she loses it, let's go, don't worry about it......"
"Drivingβ"
After not taking a few steps, Jing Ci finally saw Fang Nian's back from a distance...... When she approached, Jing Zi Lerma stopped in front of her.
"What to do?"
Fang Nian heard the master's voice, and hurriedly put away the bulging oiled paper in his hand, "Fourth lady...... No, Shiro-kun, I'm ......"
"What's in your hand?"
"It's nothing ......," Fang Nian immediately hid the oil paper behind him.
Jing Ci looked behind Fang Nian...... Pancake shop.
"What are you buying so many pancakes for?"
"I, I ......"
"Even if you're hungry again, you won't be able to eat that much." There are at least a dozen of them in the oiled paper.
"No......" Fang Nian lowered his head and had to confess, "I'm afraid that Shiro-kun will be hungry when I go back...... Those lowly slaves always withhold food from our yard...... The slave knew that she was wrong, and asked the four ladies to punish her. β
Fang Nian said and looked up at his master, and when he saw that his master didn't react, he knelt down with a puff, "The slave doesn't dare anymore, Shiro-kun will forgive the slave once." β
Seeing Fang Nian's face full of nervousness and guilt, Jing Ci was quite sad, as the master of the first courtyard, she made the slaves and maids who followed her worry about food and clothing, even if it was wrong...... It's also her fault.
"It's so stupid," Jing Ci stretched out his hand to help Fang Nian up, staring at her, "Don't worry, I won't let you go hungry." β
Fang Nian was stunned, Siniang not only scolded her, but also said this...... Her eyes were red, she nodded violently, she would definitely listen to Siniang in the future, and believe Siniang...... This is the master who treats her as his own......
"What are you rubbing! The hour has been delayed by you...... It's really ......" Li Chen, who came with him, kept urging, "Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up ......"
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Chen Erjia.
The so-called brothel is actually similar to an ordinary house, and there are several entrances. Through the hall through the courtyard, the hall is spacious. There are many flowers in the courtyard, and the clear water is strange and mountainous, which is quite gorgeous. What surprised Jing Ci the most was that there were a few clusters of bamboo in the corner.
"Ouch - I have been looking forward to Chen Lang for a long time, why haven't you come to Chen's mother for so long, I thought something had happened to you, but I was worried about death."
Before anyone saw it, they heard it.
After a while, I saw a plump woman with heavy makeup waving a pu fan and greeting her with a bright face, this person was the old bustard Chen Er.
"Ye has been busy lately, and he came here when he has time, how is Qiaoxi lately?"
"Okay! You know that you are thinking about Qiaoxi. Yo, you also brought a groom-kun? The old bustard paid attention to Jing Ci, looked at it a few times, and his smile suddenly froze, "Li Lang, you don't know the rules of Mother Chen, we don't accept female guests." β
"Today, the master is here to pick up Qiaoxi, don't talk nonsense." Li Chen glanced at Jing Ci, and the two walked straight in.
"Hey, hey......" the old bustard wanted to stop.
Jing Ci threw out a small amount of gold, and the old bustard took the money and stretched out his hand back, thinking that he was worthy of being a heroic Yangfu person.
"Fourth aunt, you are really generous." Li Chen was overjoyed, this was a matter of giving him a long face.
"Let's go, go and see your bridge."
"Hey, hey, Li Lang......" The old bustard chased after him again, with a sad face, "Qiaoxi is having a banquet in the backyard, and he can't pull out for a while." β
"What? Didn't I say that I wouldn't let Qiaoxi pick up customers! The lord's money was given for free? β
"Ouch, look at what you're talking about...... Your little money is enough to support Qiaoxi for three or five days at most, and it's been a few days, and if you don't pick up customers, our Chen Erjia will have to drink the northwest wind. The old bustard twisted his waist and pretended to be pitiful.
"Come less!" Li Chen rushed to the backyard.
Jing Ci looked at Li Chen's impulsive appearance and shook his head helplessly. This temperament is like Yang Shouyan's own son. She hurriedly followed, this house not only has several entrances, but also is equipped with a cross-courtyard.
At the corner of the backyard, the voices of people are boiling, the rough voice is mixed with coquettishness, laughter bursts from time to time, the smell of wine is faintly wafting, and the smell of smoke and willow is rushing towards you.
More than a dozen men sat in front of several cases, laughing and chatting heartily. A woman with a charming face attached to the banquet, wearing gold and silver, smiling and smiling, very charming. There are dice, order flags, chips and other things on the table.
A crystal clear jade jade bracelet was placed on the side of the case, which was so luxurious.
"This poem Xu Saburo is not right, punish wine, punish wine, punish ......"
"Yes, yes...... When punished. β
"Next is Liu Lang......"
"Ouch-" The woman in the table suddenly screamed.
Everyone looked up, only to see that the woman's wrist was grabbed by the man who suddenly rushed in, and the man's face was full of anger.
"Let it go, what are you doing!" The woman held the flask in one hand and struggled on the other hand, her eyebrows were furrowed, and she was very pitiful.
"Who are you? Such rudeness. Someone at the banquet asked loudly.
"Qiaoxi, didn't you promise me not to pick up guests?" Li Chen yelled at the struggling woman.
Qiaoxi, who frowned, looked left and right, and said as if coaxing while struggling, "You go back first, and then talk about ...... later."
