Volume 1 Once a Son of Heaven and a Courtier 092 Selling art is not selling one's body

Zhao Chengxiao was stunned when he heard this, and he also lowered his voice and said to Qiu Yizhi: "I have heard that Gongzi knows some people in the Tianzun Sect, but I didn't expect it to be true. How? Could it be that this Tianzun Sect also opened a brothel in Luoyang City? ”

Qiu Yizhi nodded and said, "That's right, the power of the Tianzun Sect is so great and the depth of cultivation is far beyond the imagination of outsiders. Therefore, if I want to save my father-in-law now, I am afraid that I can only rely on them. ”

"But it was the prince of Youyan who sent troops south to Henan Province to quell the rebellion, and the Tianzun Sect and the prince said that there was a hatred against the sky? How could they agree to help? Zhao Chengxiao was puzzled.

Qiu Yizhi waved his hand and said confidently: "Okay, I have my own way." With that, he strode towards the Warm Fragrance Pavilion.

When Qiu Yizhi came to the Nuanxiang Pavilion, it was already unitary time, and it should have been the most lively time in this flower street. The emperor died, the capital Luoyang had an explicit order to stop all entertainment activities, the brothels on the street had been removed from the colorful silk brocade and closed to customers, and a rather neat and wide street was only sparsely walked by a dozen people.

Seeing this situation, Qiu Yizhi said "not good", but through the window paper, he saw that the light was faintly revealing in the Warm Fragrance Pavilion, and he knew that someone must be in this Pavilion, so he was a little relieved, and stretched out his slap and knocked a few times on the door of the Warm Fragrance Pavilion.

Sure enough, someone stayed at the door, and when he heard the knock, he pushed the door out and asked, "May I ask what this guest officer is doing?" ”

Qiu Yizhi had never been questioned like this when he had entered the brothel of the Qinglou several times before, so he was stunned for a moment, and his eyes rolled and said: "Come to your Warm Fragrance Pavilion, what did you say you were here for?" ”

The one who greeted Qiu Yizhi was the turtle prince in the Nuanxiang Pavilion, but he was also very vigilant, and looked around with his head probed, and said: "Now that the emperor has died, everyone in the capital is not grieving. It's the same when we do the kiln business, how can we still have the heart to have fun? If this guest officer doesn't look for someone, please go back! ”

This hint from the turtle lord is obvious, and Qiu Yizhi listened to it and said: "I owed a romantic debt here a month ago, and now I have a lot of money, and I just want to pay off my mother's account." ”

The turtle prince listened to Qiu Yizhi's words like a veteran in the Fengyue Field, and reported Gu Erniang's name, but after all, he was not a familiar face in the Warm Fragrance Pavilion, and he still refused to rest assured, and asked: "The son said that he was repaying the debt, but do you have any credentials?" ”

"Credentials? I only heard that the moneylender has an IOU in his hand, how can there be a reason for the person who repays the money with a voucher in his hand? Qiu Yizhi retorted.

"The little one can't stand it. Don't hide it from this guest officer, we who are in the skin and meat business, look cheap, but we are also afraid that Wang Fa will be ruthless. If you are caught by the patrol soldiers or the persuasion of the good division of the city without permission, you will be convicted of a big disrespectful crime, and if you send it to the vegetable market, it will be a knife, and this head will not grow......"

The turtle was chattering endlessly, Qiu Yizhi turned around and took out an object from the baggage that Zhao Chengxiao helped him take, handed it to the turtle and said: "You take this to Gu's mother, if she doesn't accept the customer after seeing it, I will leave immediately, and I won't bother you to be verbose." ”

The turtle man took the things, rubbed them up and down, left and right, and after not talking much, he turned around and went to the warm incense pavilion, and did not forget to close the door when he left.

In the blink of an eye, the turtle man pushed the door in again, respectfully handed the thing back to Qiu Yizhi, and said with a smile: "The son is really a distinguished guest, and the little one can see it at a glance." No, Gu's mother asked the little one to arrange to serve the guest officer first. Just now the little one who has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, please don't be surprised......"

Qiu Yizhi was in a state of turmoil, and when he heard him finish, he waved his hand and said, "Okay, you don't have to say a few words, take me to see Gu's mother." As he spoke, he reached out and took out a piece of gold the size of a little thumb from the bag held by Zhao Chengxiao and handed it to him.

This turtle prince took the gold, immediately closed his mouth, and led Qiu Yizhi and Zhao Chengxiao to the second floor with a smile, pushed open a door and said, "Childe, please go in and rest." ”

Qiu Yizhi entered the door, and Zhao Chengxiao was about to follow in, but was pulled by the turtle and said, "You can't go in this guest officer, we have never had such a rule in the Warm Fragrance Pavilion." If you want to rest, go to the next room. ”

Zhao Chengxiao listened, looked at Qiu Yizhi, and asked, "Palace...... Son? ”

Qiu Yizhi nodded and said, "It's okay." Oh, by the way, you leave your luggage, go out and gather a few of your brothers, and immediately come to this warm incense pavilion to meet and make peace, there must be no mistake! ”

Zhao Chengxiao knew that the current situation was critical, and he no longer hesitated, put the burden on the table in the room, turned around and left quickly.

Seeing this, the turtle prince smiled again: "It's still the child's understanding, please rest here." With that, he withdrew.

Qiu Yizhi saw that the room was elegant and clean, so he settled down and sat on a chair to close his eyes and recuperate. But as soon as he closed his eyes, the door was pushed open again.

Qiu Yizhi opened her eyes and saw that it was not Gu Erniang who pushed the door in, but a purple-clothed woman who was about twenty years old, holding a pipa in her hand, gently covering the door, then turned around Tingting and stood in front of her, and said, "Childe, what tune do you want to hear, and wait for Jiang Zi to play for the public." ”

When Qiu Yizhi heard this, she knew that she was sent by Gu Erniang, so she asked, "The girl was called by Gu's mother to wait for me?" I still admire Gu Erniang's thoughtfulness in my heart, knowing that I am in the green building, if there is no fireworks woman to accompany her, it will inevitably be a little strange, and it is easy for people to recognize their identity.

The woman named Jiang Zi said, "Don't misunderstand, Childe. The little woman is a performer who doesn't sell her body......"

Qiu Yizhi nodded and said, "That's just right." It's just that the sound of this lute is too irritable, and I am tired and sleepy under it, and I can't use it. The girl doesn't have to bother to play, just sit here. As he spoke, he took out a small gold bar the size of the same as the one he had given to the turtle from the baggage on the table, and threw it to Jiang Zi.

Jiang Zi took the gold bar, her cheeks turned red for a moment, and she put the reward on the chair with her lute, but she reached out and pulled open the placket of her clothes, and took off the light veil she was wearing one by one.

Qiu Yizhi was shocked when she saw it, hurriedly turned away, and asked, "Girl, what are you doing here?" ”

The woman chuckled softly: "In this Warm Fragrance Pavilion, you and I are alone in the same room, what else can we do?" ”

"Girl, aren't you a performer?" Qiu Yizhi peeked and saw that Jiang Zi had taken off only a red belly pocket.

Jiang Zi listened to it and smiled: "What kind of performance is not selling oneself, it's just a gimmick to ask for more money." Childe is so generous, don't say it's a body, the slave family even sold his soul to Childe! ”

When Qiu Yizhi heard this, he was already desperate, and he hurriedly said with a back face: "Girl, you misunderstood, misunderstood......"

Jiang Zi still didn't give up: "Don't be shy, the slave family has more literati and elegant guests, I guarantee that the son is satisfied!" ”

Qiu Yizhi was about to refuse, but he heard a woman's voice outside the door: "Qiu Gongzi is in the house?" The slaves are coming in! ”

"Mother Gu, come and save me!" Qiu Yizhi heard the woman's voice, and hurriedly shouted almost for help.

Gu Erniang thought that there was some danger in the room, so she hurriedly kicked open the door, but saw that her own Oiran in the room was standing by the bed half-naked, while Qiu Yizhi was shrinking in the corner of the room. Gu Erniang is an expert in the courtyard, and she can see the reason at a glance, so she covered her mouth and smiled: "Since the son doesn't have this Yaxing, you still don't want to retreat?" Childe's reward is indispensable to yours, what are you doing standing here stupidly? ”

Jiang Zi listened to the old bustard's words, bit her lower lip, said "yes", then reached out and held the small gold bar tightly, picked up the pipa and the clothes she took off to cover her chest, and hurriedly retreated.

Gu Erniang saw Jiang Zi leaving the room, and laughed again, and said, "The slave family has seen so many men, but they can't even touch the temperament of the son. On that day in the palace, in the face of the powerful eunuch Wang Zhonghai, the prince was still talking and laughing, but Jiang Zi, such a soft and weak woman, actually scared the prince into this appearance. ”

"Alas! Let Gu's mother smile! Qiu Yizhi scratched his scalp and said.

"Hahahaha!" Gu Erniang spoke with a three-point smile first, "But it is rare for a son to behave like this, no wonder I teach the saint to ......."

"What's wrong with Miss Wen?" Qiu Yizhi hurriedly asked.

Gu Erniang knew that she had missed her mouth, so she laughed again: "It's okay, it's just the gossip of the slave family, don't take it to heart!" ”

Qiu Yizhi sighed and said, "Now that I am not giving up, how can I still have this leisure?" ”

Gu Erniang listened to this and said, "Childe is talking about the prince of Youyan, right?" The prince had something bad this morning, and he was arrested on the street, and the slave family also heard about it. It's no wonder that Childe is worried. ”

As soon as he mentioned this, Qiu Yizhi's brows furrowed again, and he said, "I am here, just for this matter, and I have to ask Gu's mother to help me a few things." ”

Gu Erniang replied with a smile: "The slave family is just an old bustard, where is there any ability?" If the son can't do it, how can the slave family do it? ”

Qiu Yizhi said: "Mother Gu is too modest, isn't it all up to you to visit the palace that day?" The two things that I asked Gu's mother to do below, although it is difficult for others to reach the sky, are just a gesture for you. ”

"What's the matter?" Gu Erniang was finally aroused by Qiu Yizhi's interest.

"Find two people." Qiu Yizhi said, "One is my brother Chi Lianghong, Gu's mother is a well-known figure in the rivers and lakes, there must be a way to find my brother." The other is even simpler, it is the Holy Maiden of your sect, Miss Wen! ”

When Gu Erniang heard the names of these two people, she smiled and said, "Childe has lifted me." This Wei Chi hero came and went without a trace, where did the slave family find it? There are also saints and nobles, even if the slave family sees her, they may not be willing to appreciate it! ”

Qiu Yizhi listened and repeated: "As I have already said, this matter is just a gesture for Gu's mother, and it is only up to you to think if you can do it or not." I might as well say that if I want to find these two people in the next, I will try every means to save Youyan Wang Ye from the prison of the Criminal Department. At that time, the imperial court will inevitably send troops to attack the Youyan Palace, and the Youyan Mansion will naturally not sit idly by. At that time, the world was in turmoil, and your sect would definitely have an opportunity, so please consider it more often. ”

Qiu Yizhi's words revealed an undisguised murderous intent, which made Gu Erniang, a master who is good at using secret weapons and being good at poisoning, gasp when she heard it, and was silent for a long time before saying: "This matter is very important, and it is not up to the slave family to have the final say." Please also ask the son to be restless for a while, rest here, and wait for the slave family to discuss with the holy woman, and then give the son an answer? ”

Qiu Yizhi is a very shrewd person, Gu Erniang only said a word, and he guessed that Wen Lingjiao was still in Luoyang City, so a hanging heart lowered half an inch and said, "Mother Gu, let's do something." I haven't had lunch yet, so is there anything I can eat here? ”

Gu Erniang said with a smile: "If the son starves to death in our Warm Fragrance Pavilion, it will really become a joke, and the slave family will order the following to prepare food!" Then he turned and walked out the door.

"Wait!" Qiu Yizhi suddenly said sharply, "Mother Gu, there is still something to ask for advice below." Excuse me, the big eunuch Wang Zhonghai was poisoned by Gu's mother that day? ”
