Chapter 46: The back of the Spring Festival Building
"Miss Li'er, it's man-made, I see that Miss Li'er must not be willing to fall into the lowly status, Xiao Ke thinks that he still has some ability, maybe he can help the girl get out of the sea of suffering?" Ye Guan was also suddenly kind, and felt that he was destined for Miss Li'er, so he still hoped that she would tell her troubles. (ps, in ancient times, prostitutes in brothels that could open during the day were generally sold voluntarily or by their parents, and they had a public identity.) Only those who are half-hidden are secretly or coerced by outsiders. )
"Childe, the ancestor of the slave family once did a flower exploration in the Hongwu Dynasty. Later, he was an official in the court of Emperor Xiaochou, and was killed after the martyrdom of Chengzu, and the men of the family were all punished, and all the female dependents were enslaved in the sect. It's been more than 100 years. Li'er sighed and told her story.
"Emperor Xiaoshu?" Ye Guan didn't figure out who it was for a while, so he was a little puzzled, but Zhu Qinglin heard the identity of Li'er, but he was quite embarrassed, and quietly pulled Ye Guan's clothes and said, "Emperor Xiaoshu is Emperor Jianwen." ”
"It's him!" Only then did Ye Guan understand why Li'er said that her identity was difficult to get out of her lowly status. It turned out that his ancestor was Zhu Di's enemy and the courtier of Emperor Jianwen, who was usurped by Zhu Di!
Ye Guan also understood why Zhu Qinglin was embarrassed, Zhu Qinglin's ancestors were martyred, and Li'er's ancestors were ministers who cut down the feudal domain or finally established Emperor Wen, in the final analysis, Li'er can have today, and Zhu Qinglin's ancestors also have a "credit".
"Childe knows, so Childe's kindness and mercy are understood, but Childe's life experience is very involved, so I don't bother Childe." Li'er sighed, but still showed a smile on Ye Guan, hoping that Ye Guan would be relieved.
"Miss Li'er, Tie Xuan's wife and daughter have all been dismissed from the lowly status, is the identity of the girl's ancestor even greater than the identity of the military department Shangshu who stopped Chengzu's army in Jinan City?" Ye Guan saw that Li'er was sad but still had to smile at people, and suddenly felt extremely unwilling, so he couldn't help but ask.
"The concubine's original surname is Huang, and her ancestor is the teacher of Emperor Jianwen and the main strategist of the feudal clan - Huang Hanlin. Therefore, in the past hundred years, the wives and nephews of those former ministers of Jianwen have long been pardoned, but our Huang family has never been able to get out of the lowly status. Men are born to be handymen and teapots, and women are born to be courtesans and maikos. After old age and decay, it can only be rationed to those miscellaneous servants and big teapots who are also lowly people......" When Li'er said this, she could no longer hold back the grief in her heart, her eyes were full of tears, and she choked up and couldn't utter a complete word.
"No wonder, no wonder, it turns out that her ancestor is Emperor Jianwen's adviser - Huang Zicheng!" When Ye Guan heard this, he understood why many descendants of Jianwen's former ministers had been pardoned over the years, but the family of Li'er could no longer be pardoned, it turned out that she was a descendant of Huang Zicheng. Zhu Di hated him to death, and Zhu Di's descendants did not dare to pardon this group of people at will, so they could only carry the reputation of being a lowly person from birth, until they returned to nothingness again after a humiliating life......
By the time Ye Guan recalled the identity of the beautiful woman, she had long since disappeared.
"Miss Li'er, I will definitely do my best to help you get out of the sea of suffering." Although Ye Guan didn't see Li'er, he still made a promise to the place where Li'er was standing just now.
"Let's go, the combing of that Oiran is about to begin, let's go and finish this case first, and I'll help you pay attention to Miss Li'er's affairs." Zhu Qinglin explained to Ye Guan softly for the first time, but Ye Guan was still immersed in what happened just now and didn't notice it.
Ye Guan nodded, and went to an independent courtyard house in the direction indicated by Li'er. The two of them went out of the back door of the ** building, and there was just a courtyard across the street, and there were two big teapots with green hats guarding the door at the door.
Ye Guan took the lead and went up the steps, and the two big teapots consciously bent over and asked with a smile: "Are the two guests here to participate in the Liu family's combing party?" ”
"Well, yes, my son wants to come and see everyone Liu." Ye Guan nodded.
"Dare to ask the son's high surname, and let us be bitter and ha, and let us be bitter haha and make you happy?" A tall, lanky teapot asked tentatively. They didn't recognize Ye Guan, so it was not easy to determine whether Ye Guan's identity was enough to go in, but they couldn't say it directly, so they could only pick up some nice things to say.
"Hehe, the two of them have no grade and no rank, Bai Ding identity, but they have a little money, so they want to go in and join in the fun, maybe they can get a beautiful woman." Ye Guan concealed his identity as a Jinyi guard, and only said that he and Zhu Qinglin, who was dressed as a man, were both rich sons.
"Oh, it's Tao Zhugong's student, disrespectful. I wonder how much money this boy brought? "Hearing Ye Guan say that he is not an official, those big teapots are not as polite as just now, although Tao Zhugong is a huge rich man in the Spring and Autumn Period, the businessmen of later generations also call Tao Zhugong Fan Li the ancestor of the merchant industry. But in terms of the roots of this imperial city, with a few dollars, he is really not a nobleman. Therefore, these big teapots, who are accustomed to seeing dignitaries and dignitaries, also despise it, and directly ask for money.
"My son came in a hurry, so he brought a few thousand taels of silver." After Ye Guan finished speaking, he immediately glanced at Zhu Qinglin, Zhu Qinglin was quite unhappy that Ye Guan treated him as a small servant, but there was no way, who called the money his own, and it was still on himself, so he had to take out a few silver tickets that were exchanged nationwide and show them to those big teapots.
"The businessman really has a lot of money, and the small ones are also stained with luxury, I hope to make more money in the future, son, please come in." The big teapot saw that Zhu Qinglin could take so many silver tickets, so he didn't embarrass Ye Guan, and bent over with a smile on his face to let Ye Guan and Zhu Qinglin in.
"Well, come, reward you, and go on." Although Ye Guan had never visited a brothel, he also knew the importance of tipping, so he took out a tael of silver from his bosom and handed it to the tall and thin teapot. The big teapot turned out to be rewarded, and the look on his face was even more respectful, and he made a gesture of please, and let Ye Guan and the others in.
As soon as Ye Guan and the others entered the door, the two big teapots hid the smiles on their faces, and when Ye Guan and the others walked to the center of the patio, the two big teapots were put together and said in a contemptuous tone: "Hey, can we Liu everyone buy it with a few rotten money?" He is really a rich man in the countryside. I think that with money, I can do whatever I want. Let people like them go into the courtyard of the Liu family to comb up, it is really dirty this place. But this kid is generous, and rewarded us with a silver tael, although we can't climb high in Liu, but later, we will also find a kiln sister who can see it, and be happy? One of them squinted his eyes and said, both of them are cheap, and they love to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, so they haven't found a wife in their thirties, and even those kiln sisters of the same age are unwilling to marry such people, so these two bachelors often take money to those secret prostitutes to fill the uncle for a while.
"Yes, in this Beijing city, no official dares to go to such a place where dignitaries and dignitaries gather, I really don't know whether to live or die. Let's go, today I had the pleasure of glancing at everyone Liu, oops, my heart, has been fluttering, you said that it would be nice if our brothers were those big officials, then the little girl didn't just beckon! Another big teapot also looked down on Ye Guan and the others who were disguised as rich people, and at the same time envied the officials who went in.
"Yo, Master Lu, your old man is here! Please come in, everyone Liu has been waiting for you for a long time, and the little ones think that everyone Liu can only walk sideways in this city of Beijing by relying on you, and only the talent of everyone Liu can be worthy of your identity as a supervisor of the imperial history. The tall and thin teapot saw a sedan chair supervising the imperial history coming slowly, and immediately hurried a few steps, came to the sedan chair and bowed to the characters in the sedan chair.
"Liuzi, you kid is getting better and better at talking. Lord is in a good mood today, come and reward him with a tael of silver. The people in the sedan chair listened to the voice about thirty or forty years old, and seemed to be a frequent visitor to the ** floor, and the flattery of the big teapot named Liuzi seemed to be very useful, so he didn't open the sedan curtain (Liuzi's identity can't let a powerful superintendent Yushi open the sedan curtain) But he still let people reward Liuzi with a tael of silver.
"Thank you for the reward, when the villain goes home, he will immediately move the ancestral tablet aside, and put the two pieces of silver you rewarded in the center, which is brought from the nobleman's house, which is a good thing that we sluts can't think of." When the sixth son saw a sedan chair driver directly throw out a tael of silver, his eyes immediately narrowed with a smile, and he bent down while holding the two pieces of silver in both hands, and led the way with his head in front of him, leading the sedan chair that was only four or five meters away from the courtyard.
Although the sedan chair was not an official sedan chair, it was just a small sedan chair carried by two people, but the superintendent still didn't even get off the sedan chair, and directly asked the sedan chair driver to carry the sedan chair into the courtyard. (PS: During the Ming and Qing dynasties, there were strict regulations for all kinds of people to ride in sedan chairs.) Only a certain grade can take an eight-lift sedan chair and a four-person sedan chair, and low-grade officials can only ride a small sedan chair carried by two people, and the drapery on the outside of the sedan chair and the decoration of the top of the sedan chair have strict requirements. Lower, then there is only horseback riding and walking. It's not like what is depicted in some TV dramas, not only military officials and wealthy businessmen and civilians can ride in a sedan chair or a four-person sedan chair, then it's the same as now when you drive a private car with an armed police or public security license plate, being caught is not a fine, and playing the board and exile are definitely indispensable. )
Seeing the superintendent Yushi enter, the sixth son and another big teapot all gathered together and looked at the one or two silvers with bright eyes, and one of them said: "Sixth brother, I will give three taels of silver, and I don't want the rewards of those guests in the next month, you can exchange these two taels of silver to me." ”
"Phew, are you the kind of fool who only recognizes money when you are your sixth brother? Not to mention that these two pieces of silver carry the nobility of those officials and masters, that is, we can't occupy the nobility, and they are also the objects that the lord will show off in this session in the future, and I want to buy it for three taels of silver? You're fucking confused, aren't you? Next time, be smart, say more good things to those officials, maybe you can also bump into great luck. Liuzi didn't give his companion face at all, but sarcastically mocked him mercilessly.
"Then will you go to find Sister Yao'er later?" The junior was disgraced by the lesson of the sixth son, so he could only change the topic.
"the fart, Lao Tzu will put the ancestral tablet aside when he goes home, put the two pieces of silver on the desk, and worship with incense every day, hoping that one day the master can leave such a green hat industry." The sixth son seems to have put all his hopes on the two pieces of silver rewarded by the imperial history, and he didn't even have the heart to go to the secret prostitute he wanted to go to.
