Chapter 226: Timidity
It has not yet come out of the New Year, and the night view of Chang'an City is still beautiful and dazzling. The big red lanterns hanging in front of each house are dazzling, and when you stand on the street and look at it, the lanterns on both sides of the street form two red dragons. Not long after the darkness fell, children in new clothes laughed and played in the streets. According to the custom of the Great Sui, no matter how children play in the New Year, they will not be scolded by adults.
Walking down the street, it is not uncommon to see women stuffing candy into the arms of children they don't know. But there is no need to worry that this is a trafficker with bad intentions, although there are occasional cases of children being trafficked. But because the Great Sui admired filial piety and benevolence and the court's heavy code, this kind of crime that everyone spurned rarely happened.
If you have many children, you can pass them on to others to raise. If the two families negotiate, they can also spend money to buy the child. However, they must report to the government, and from time to time the government officials will check on the life of the purchased children, and if there is abuse, the government will forcibly return the child to the biological parents, and the adoptive parents will be severely fined, ranging from flogging to prison, or sending them to the frontier.
For those who steal and sell children, the government has always had only one punishment, and that is to kill without mercy.
Children with fireworks and sweets in their hands running freely up and down the street, occasionally lighting a firecracker and throwing it on the ground. The adults who were taken aback would not scold angrily, because in the concept of the people of the Great Sui. The first month of the year was originally a time for children to have fun, and after the holiday of the Great Sui School was to be put down on the second day of the second month of February, children could play crazy for a whole month.
The reason why it is the second day of the second month of February is because this day is the day when the dragon raises its head. In the Great Sui, the people regarded the second day of the second month of February as the departure of winter and the arrival of spring. The rain god Dragon King, who has slept for a whole winter, will wake up and send the first expensive spring rain to the earth.
Of course, this is just a custom.
In fact, according to the records of the Great Sui Star Observatory Qingyu Division for so many years, only the second day of February in the fifteenth year of Shenzong had rain.
The shops were all open, and the smell of wine and meat in the restaurant overflowed into the noses of the people passing by. Dressed in new clothes, the shopkeeper stood at the door and warmly greeted the guests who came and went.
On the opposite side of this restaurant is the Crescent Tower, one of the most famous green buildings in Chang'an City. The fame of this building is second only to the two green buildings under the name of Wu Yiyi, the richest man in the Great Sui, and it can also be regarded as a golden signboard in Chang'an City. Although the business of the red sleeves has made all the Qinglou transactions a lot colder, this New Year's month, even the most angry Chang'an men will not be stingy with the pocket money in their hands, so the business of the Xinyue Mansion is particularly prosperous.
The red sleeve move has the beauty of the red sleeve move, and the green building has the temptation of the green building.
It's not a shame for men to visit Qinglou in Chang'an City, unless someone's mother-in-law is too fierce. At the gate of the Crescent Building, there were four young men in green clothes and soap boots, all of whom were young men with clear eyebrows. Those nobles from big families have good male style, and the value of these little girls is sometimes not lower than that of the red girl.
Fang Jie, who had deliberately changed into a brocade robe, walked to the door of the Crescent Moon Building and took a closer look at the four little guys. found that their standing posture was very stable, and it was estimated that they had learned some superficial fist and foot kung fu. Before he came, he had already seen the terrain around the Crescent Tower clearly, and it was already his inherent habit to find a way out.
This kind of local solution is not afraid of meeting any acquaintances, and those really famous adults dare not show their heads. Even if they came to the Qinglou, they would go in quickly, and directly find the girl they were good with, and they were anxious about Wushan Yunyu. After all, they are all people with status, if they are played in front of the civil and military officials in the imperial history platform, even if the emperor only reprimands them, they will not be able to get off the stage.
Moreover, Fang Xie changed his appearance slightly, and the mustache that Shen Tianfan carefully glued under his nose was very realistic. made him look a lot more mature, and the slightly tacky brocade robe on his body was padded with something, which made his figure look fatter.
The little guy at the door greeted Fang Xie warmly and asked if there was a familiar girl. Fang Xie smiled and shook his head, and generously rewarded some scattered silver. The little guy who got the silver worked harder, led Fang Xie into the door, and introduced the beautiful Jiao Jiao who loves flowers and flowers in the building as he walked. Fang Xie pretended to be attentive and looked around to see if there was anyone he knew.
"Look, Childe, you should be coming to our Crescent Tower for the first time, and I don't know what type of girl you like. Is it more lively or gentle? The girls in our building not only have ladies from the south of the Yangtze River, but also foreign races from the Western Regions. If the son is willing to spend more silver, there will still be a peerless beauty of the Northern Liao people waiting for him. ”
The little guy pointed upstairs and said, "The son is noble, why don't you go upstairs to find a private room and then slowly pick a girl?" I asked my mother to lead the girls to the private room to meet you, and whoever I chose stayed to serve you. It's not that I'm bragging, all the girls in our building are very capable, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Poetry, elegant tight. If you want to listen to music, the southern and northern tunes are also at your fingertips. ”
Fang Xie nodded and said, "Okay, you can lead it upstairs." ”
The little guy knew that he pulled a gold owner again, and hurriedly led him up to the second floor, and shouted in a clear voice while going upstairs: "Listen to Yuxuan, your mother welcomes you!" ”
This is the first time Fang Xie has walked into the Qinglou, whether it is in his previous life or in this life. In my previous life, I always longed for this kind of place, but I didn't have the courage, but now that I finally walked in, Fang Xie always felt a little strange. Maybe it was because of the thinking of his previous life, and he actually had a feeling of being a thief in his heart.
The second floor is full of private rooms, and the sound of singing and laughing comes from the door from time to time as you pass by. Fang Xie listened carefully, discerning whether there was a familiar voice.
Just when he was paying attention to these things, the little guy in front of him stopped: "Childe, this is Tingyuxuan, please come in." ”
……
……
Pushing open the door and entering, Fang Xie found that the layout in the room was very elegant, without a trace of kitsch. At the entrance are hangers and washbasin racks, where guests take off their robes and clean their hands. There was a fire in the house, and the temperature was suitable. In order not to make the guests feel that the smell of charcoal in the house is too strong, sandalwood is also specially lit.
Fang Xie didn't take off his robe, because there were still things hidden inside.
He walked inside and noticed that the space behind the screen was not very large. A fine mahogany bed, a table, two chairs, and nothing else. The landscape paintings hanging on the walls show that they are copied, and the painting style is a little rougher.
Fang Jiexin said that no wonder the voices of the people inside could be heard when they passed by the door, it turned out that the layout of each room was so small.
He sat down, and the old bustard, who was dressed quite hot, walked in with a smile. Hush the cold and asked for warmth, as if Fang Xie was a relative she hadn't seen for many years. Fang Xie was a little uncomfortable with this attitude, but he deliberately looked relaxed. The bustards are all people with extremely poisonous eyes, and it is natural to see that this handsome boy with a mustache definitely does not come to this kind of place often.
She smiled and said a few polite words, then stuck to Fang Jie's shoulder and asked, "Childe gives me a general direction, and I can choose the right girl for you." ”
"Is there a ......?"
Fang Xie thought for a while, lowered his voice and said, "Pureer, well-behaved?" She will do whatever I say, and the body is the best, that ...... It's better not to have too big breasts, you know? ”
He found that he was really not suitable for entering this kind of place, obviously acting, but when he said these words, his voice trembled slightly, as if he was a thief. The bustard likes this kind of slightly shy guest the most, generally speaking, this kind of guest will not have any excessive requirements, and he is generous.
The old bustard covered his mouth and said with a smile: "Childe is really good at enjoyment, I understand what you mean, it's just looking for tenderness, right?" If the son is willing to pay a good price, there are still a few beautiful and handsome people in the building. At the age of fourteen or fifteen, it is a good time for the buds to bloom. The body is delicate and soft, and it is the most ecstasy. ”
Fang Xie wanted to refuse, visiting the Qinglou was originally to do business, if he harmed a little girl who didn't bud again, wouldn't it be a sin. But after thinking about it, even if she didn't do it, the girl would have been taken advantage of by that rude and barbaric guy. And if you refuse, it's obvious that the play is a bit fake.
"It's okay, it's up to my mother to arrange."
Fang Xie took out a silver ticket from his cuff and handed it over, the old bustard looked down at the amount on the silver ticket and was quite satisfied, then turned around with a few polite words, and ordered someone to bring rare fruits and some delicate snacks. These fruits are not locally produced, they should have been trafficked by merchants from Eastern Chu from the other side of the sea. Ordinary people are reluctant to buy and eat, and the price of a plate of fruit is enough for a family to eat for half a month.
After the bustard came out, Fang Xie was a little more steady. The previous conversation was even more tiring than fighting with Prince Yi. He couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly, and said in his heart that he had been in this world for almost seventeen years, how could he still be so uncomfortable. He remembered the teasing eyes of Shen Tian Fan before, and his face flushed slightly. The heart said that even Shen Tianfan could see that he was timid, and he was really a failure in this regard.
He pinched a fruit and put it in his mouth, knowing that this thing was called musk fruit, the size of grapes, but he had never seen it in his previous life. The fragrance is fragrant, and if it is well preserved, it can even be stored for several months without rotting. The taste is slightly sweet but not greasy, and it is called musk fruit by the Sui people because of its special aroma.
After sending two into his mouth, the old bustard led a little girl with slightly red cheeks and walked in with a smile.
"Quick, I've seen Childe. He is your benefactor tonight, you have to serve well, if the son is benevolent, you will be easier to live this time, maybe you will be comfortable again. If you don't serve well, your son will be rude and you will suffer. ”
The little girl looked fifteen or sixteen years old, about the same age as Wu Yinyu. The body is petite, and it is also to the shoulders of Fang Jie. It looks a little thin, and the thin but sleek shoulders make people like it, especially the slim waist is really a good hand. Although the breasts are not too small, they are just like steamed buns, so they can barely hold up the clothes. Because she was thinner, her buttocks were not as plump and round as the woman's. But it looks very tasteful, and this slightly green is the most lovable.
She hung her head and didn't dare to look at Fang Jie's eyes, and blushed and hummed to salute Fang Jie. Willow leaves have curved eyebrows, big eyes, slightly pointed jaws, and a straight nose, but it is indeed a beautiful embryo.
The old bustard said that the son should be more merciful to our girl, but don't let the girl faint in pain, and then left with a smile. When he went out, he didn't forget to throw a wink at Fang Jie.
As soon as the old bustard left, Fang Xie seemed even more cramped than the Qingqi man. He opened his mouth but didn't know what to say, so he had to smile awkwardly.
Although this Qingqi man is not very old, he has been training in the Crescent Tower for many years. Naturally, he could see at a glance that Fang Xie was not that kind of villain, so he was also a little relieved. They were all sold into the Qinglou at a very young age, and they were deliberately kept because they looked beautiful, taught them piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, taught them how to please men, and sold them at a good price when they grew up. She knew that she would not be able to pass this hurdle sooner or later, and she was just looking forward to meeting a gentler man for the first time.
Seeing Fang Jie's eyebrows and clear eyes, he seemed to be even more shy than her. She knew that she was lucky, and if she met someone with a rough personality, she might have come up and tore her clothes at this time.
"Or... Shall I sing a song for Childe first? ”
The little girl hesitated and asked.
Fang Jie, who was already at a loss, nodded immediately when he heard this: "It's okay...... Let's sing a song first. ”
He subconsciously wiped the sweat from his forehead, and his back was also wet.
"It's so hot in this room......"
He said awkwardly.
"Hot?"
The little girl has been specially trained for so many years, and she knows the hints in the words of many guests. Generally speaking, when it comes to heat, it is time to get to the point. She said in her heart that this person was so strange, so she said that she couldn't help listening to the music again? So she moved a few steps forward with a red face, squatted down in front of Fang Xie and said softly: "Then I will first ...... for my son."
"Ahh
Fang Xie was so shocked that he jumped up.
"Isn't it a rap song? Why are you undressing again? ”
