Yaoqin knew very well in her heart that Qin Xianglian was sitting on the ground with her, pretending to cry poor in front of her, and she was very disgusted with her in her heart, so she turned around and asked, "How much do you want?" Make an offer, and I can give it to you now. Qin Xianglian wanted to talk to her, but the turtle husband pulled her behind and said, "Niangniang, don't give too much, just give a ransom money." Qin Xianglian was about to get angry with him when she heard this, but she heard Gui Gong continue: "As long as you like it, we often send people to the palace to sing songs for you to relieve your boredom, and you often come to us to see if you are fine, the big guys are looking forward to you." ”

Qin Xianglian suddenly understood what Gui Gong meant, what is the use of you giving him more money, what he wants is to have a relationship with King Qi, it is completely different, with a lingering incense hall without a political background, it is impossible to rely on the long-term stability of the gangsters to run it, let alone compete with other Qinglou, although the best way is to form a pair with high-ranking officials, in the name of poverty alleviation, and often give gifts to high-ranking officials, free orders and other bribes, and after a long time, it will naturally be safe.

In this era, the gangster is the official government, but the official government is also divided into large and low, for example, Jiankang Mansion can manage the Liuxiang Pavilion, but the Jiucheng Terracotta Division, which is one level higher than Jiankang Mansion, can also manage him, and even Jiankang Mansion, and the Liubu and Yushitai, which are one level higher than the Jiucheng Terracotta Division, can also manage this small Qinglou, as long as they are willing to intervene. Gao Huan is the same existence as the emperor, and the Yushitai and the Six Divisions have to look at his face to act, so Gui Gong knows very well what Yaoqin's identity is, as long as she is happy, she will blow a pillow wind in Gao Huan's ear, who would dare to bully them in the Lingering Fragrance Pavilion?

Although Gu Gong has no knowledge, he has also seen scenes over the years, so compared to Qin Xianglian, who wants money from death, he has a farther vision and a bigger goal. But it can't be said that there is anything wrong with Qin Xianglian asking for money when she dies. The woman's father died when she was three years old, and her mother left her to remarry, and at the age of nine she was sold by her uncle to the landlord's family as a servant, and later the old housekeeper of the landlord's family defiled the poor child one night in the summer when she was eleven years old.

At the age of thirteen, she was pregnant with the housekeeper's child, but the housekeeper refused to admit it, and the landlord was afraid that she would affect his reputation, so he sold her to a cloth merchant who went to Jiankang to do business. The cloth merchant also liked her very much at first, but he was very angry with her and the housekeeper's child, and sent the child to the nursery several times, but each time Qin Xianglian secretly picked her up, and the eldest lady in the cloth merchant was a short-tempered woman, who often abused and beat her, and did not give her mother and son food.

In the winter of the age of fourteen, Qin Xianglian escaped from the cloth merchant with her child in her arms and came to the banks of the Qinhuai River, which was prosperous at that time, she was attracted by the high-class prostitutes who wore red and green, she was attracted by the delicious dishes on the table, and she was awakened by the hungry cry of the child in her arms. Her first pick-up was a butcher who sold meat in the south of the city, the man was full of beard and meat, and there was a smell of sweat and pork on his body, especially when the stinky mouth came up to kiss her, she almost didn't vomit from the butcher's bad breath.

That time, the butcher had been doing it for more than an hour, and if it hadn't been for the bustard's knock on the door, he wouldn't have finished his business. Qin Xianglian got the first money she got in exchange for her body, a pitiful tael of silver. But she looked at the two pieces of silver and felt very satisfied, if only in the countryside in the past was enough for her to live with her children for a month or two, but when she went out, she found that one or two pieces of silver could not survive in Jiankang City at all.

She started to make money by picking up customers, sometimes four or five a day. Some of them are young lads, but it's okay. Some were bad old men in their fifties and sixties, which reminded her of the old housekeeper of the landlord's family. My heart was filled with disgust and disgust. Qin Xianglian felt nothing shameful about selling her body to make money, she also knew that she looked a little good, and in the days when she went to the landlord's house in the countryside, there were even a few domestic maids who did not hesitate to fight in private in order to be nice to her.

So now life is difficult, she is a little girl with this child, there is no way to survive, only to sell her body to make money. Luckily, when she was twenty years old, she was raised by a coal merchant from Shanxi and began to live a canary life, and she felt that it was much better to concentrate on serving one man than to serve different men every day. Moreover, the coal merchants in Shanxi are very good to her and her children, and every time they come to the house where she lives (bought by the coal merchants), they give her mother and son gifts.

It wasn't until she was twenty-five years old that the coal merchant began to gradually stop coming, and she learned from her subordinates that the coal merchant had a new love, and she was disgusted with her old age, so she pretended to be hard and moved out of the stockade and returned to her dirty fireworks and willow lane. But the child learns some bad things every day with her ears and eyes.

When the coal merchant found her, he didn't mean to persuade her to go back, but when he left, he left a bag of silver, about 1,000 taels, and said to her: Find a reliable man to marry, so it is good for the children. But Qin Xianglian was competitive in her heart, and she also felt that those men were unreliable, so she took the thousand taels of silver and started her own flower boat on the Qinhuai River.

The first two girls she bought earned her a lot of money, and she earned back the capital in a year. This made her more devotive, sold the flower boat, and bought a house in the most remote corner of the area, named the Dark Fragrance Museum. The girls under his command are dressed up like everyone's ladies, and those talented people who have heard the wind and come to linger on it.

But the good times didn't last long, the stupid ruffians who collected protection money didn't come, but the officials of the government came to her dark incense hall every once in a while to sit, and the business couldn't be done, so she could only ask someone to go to the Taishou of Jiankang Mansion, and even spent a thousand taels of silver to pay two girls for a month, so that those errand servants stopped patronizing.

But the guests didn't dare to come, and she couldn't think of any way to pull the guests back, at this time the turtle came to the door to find a job, saying that he could help her pull the guests back, Qin Xianglian was suspicious to cooperate with him, and I didn't know what method the turtle Gong used, and gradually the guests came back, and her business was growing stronger and stronger in the "care" of the Taishou, and finally the shotgun changed to buy a house in the most prosperous area, and changed the name to Liuxiang Pavilion, which means that men will linger and be happy for these fragrant women.

Qin Xianglian's own life is like this, and even so, her life is thousands of times luckier than that of many women. Now Yaoqin and Liu Ruyan seem to continue the tradition of the Lingering Fragrance Pavilion, and they have carried forward this tradition, no matter how good Cui'er is, she can't compare to these two wealthy and powerful people. So as long as Yaoqin is happy, even if she wants to take her son away, Qin Xianglian can only endure the pain and cut her love.

Cui'er is young, but she is a clever ghost, very good at pleasing people, and knows how to please others at a young age, regardless of whether the other party is a man or a woman. As soon as she arrived at Yaoqin's house, the servants from inside and outside liked this little girl very much.

In the evening of that day, the attendant came in to report that Gao Huan was almost in Jiankang, and asked Yaoqin to prepare to welcome the king. Yaoqin was lying on the couch bored at this time, and when she heard that her sweetheart was coming, she immediately cheered up and dressed up, and took out the most beautiful clothes, intending to give Gao Huan a different self.

Men sometimes fall in love with different types of women, but for a woman who is good at dressing up and grooming herself, men always love to play and never get tired of playing, not low, and never get tired of looking at them. Yaoqin's characteristic is not that she looks a little good, but that she feels different fresh and exciting every time she gives Gao Huan, sometimes she is a dignified and elegant lady, sometimes she is a lively and lovely little jasper, sometimes she is a charming young woman with graceful demeanor, and sometimes she is a young girl who wants to refuse and welcome.

Gao Huan is fascinated by her, he is not a man who likes women, but she is a woman who can make Gao Huan like herself, such a woman is indeed very attractive. The word fox is obviously derogatory, we can only say that Yaoqin has a charm that no man can resist, and her gestures will make your mind be taken away by her.

Gao Huan came to Jiankang this time to solve the problem of Hou Jing and Xiao Duo, and secondly, to completely assign Southern Liang to an administrative region of Wei, or a vassal state, and take advantage of the Turkic and Western Wei civil strife to solve the problem of Southern Liang. Gao Yue and Gao Longzhi had already received the news that he was coming to health, so they made preparations early.

Taicheng, in Xiao Daoquan's palace, a group of people are playing a game, but everyone is like a dumb person without a trace of joy, but Xiao Daoquan and the queen are having a lot of fun, the two of them are trying to shoot arrows, so that the palace maid who made a mistake has an apple on her head, kneeling a hundred meters away, Xiao Daoquan got up and stood at the door of the main hall with a bow and arrows, facing the palace maid who was trembling in the distance. The queen mother behind her was excitedly clapping her hands and cheering: "Your Majesty can't shoot, Your Majesty can't shoot." ”

Xiao Daoquan held his breath, and then as soon as he let go, the arrow from the string shot directly into the palace maid's eyebrows like lightning, and the palace maid died on the spot, and everyone present changed their complexion when they heard it. The queen jumped up excitedly and shouted: "Haha I won, I won, replace me, give me the bow and arrow!" The attendant eunuch carefully took the bow and arrow from the puffed Xiao Daoquan's hand and handed it over to the queen.

The queen took the bow and arrow and said very happily: "Give me a live target, hurry up." Two sergeants walked slowly with a prisoner, Xiao Daoquan looked at the prisoner and asked, "What crime did this person commit?" The sergeant bowed and replied, "Your Majesty, this man is a thief." Xiao Daoquan nodded and said, "Then bring him over." The prisoner was taken to the dead body of the palace maid, and he was frightened when he saw the miserable death of the palace maid, and immediately shouted loudly: "Your Majesty spares your life, the villain is just stealing a little melon, fruit and vegetables in the market, the crime is not to death, Your Majesty spares your life." ”

The queen pouted dissatisfiedly and said, "Your Majesty, he is always moving around, I can't aim, how can I shoot an arrow, it's too unfair." Looking at the queen's coquettish appearance, Xiao Daoquan immediately had a kind of heroic manhood to save the beauty, and said loudly to the warrior: "Let him be quiet for me, the queen can't aim," The warrior over there stepped forward and hit the back of the prisoner when he heard this, and the thief passed out honestly on the spot. The samurai placed the apple on top of his head and quickly turned away.

With a whoosh, the bow and arrow in the queen's hand flew out, and instead of hitting the apple, it hit the man's chest, perhaps stimulated by the pain, and the prisoner stood up screaming again and again, but his hands were helped back, and he could not pull out the arrow inserted in his chest. The queen over there was very angry and complained to Xiao Zheng: "Your Majesty, this is not fair, I was just disturbed by him dangling, and I have to shoot an arrow." ”

Xiao Daoquan smiled and said, "What, the queen, you want to play Laipi, I don't agree." But the queen pouted, looking unhappy, threw her bow and arrows on the ground, and sat down in a puff and ignored him. The prisoner over there was still screaming, and Xiao Daoquan was bored by the screams, so he said loudly: "Give him the pleasure, don't let him scream again." When the samurai heard this, he drew his knife and went up to the thief's vest and stabbed it.

Finally quieted down, Xiao Daoquan and the queen were both very satisfied, but the surrounding eunuchs and palace maids were already pale and bloodless. Since Xiao Daoquan settled in Taicheng, he has either drunk and hunted every day, or killed innocents indiscriminately like now, and the methods are cruel and full of tricks, sometimes those people are tortured into inhuman form and let them survive, and the entire palace seems to be full of screams and shouts, making people dare not go out at night. I am afraid that I will encounter an evil ghost who died unjustly on the way. (To be continued.) )
