"You... Did you get it down yourself? Situ Yilan looked at him in surprise.

Ning Que spread his hands helplessly, "I think I finally walked down last time."

Situ Yilan smiled. "The rules of the college state that new students will be divided into different groups when they enter the college. There are always people from other states or countries who have never been to Chang'an. Today's meeting is for everyone to go out shopping, drinking, and chatting. Our group wants to get together. Wu Cai and I grew up in Chang'an, and today we are responsible for leading you around. This gathering was supposed to take place a few days ago, but we postponed it because you were on sick leave. We don't want to bother you upstairs, so we're here to wait.

Ning Que looked at the young man beside him and found that she had taken off her student robe and changed into a light purple dress. She doesn't look as strong or fierce as she wears an archery robe, but rather feminine.

Although he couldn't wait to rush back to Lin 47th Street and tell Sangsang about his amazing experience today, he knew that he couldn't avoid the party. What's more, his classmates in classroom 3 had already waited and postponed the meeting date. In any case, he must be involved. "No problem," he said.

Situ Yilan smiled heartily: "Your frankness is really good. You are not like Chen Zixian, who ran away under the pretext that there was something at home. We all know him hanging out in gambling dens.

After Ning Que heard Chen Zixian's name, he stiffened slightly. He knew she was talking about their classmate, the son of a wealthy businessman, not the old man who couldn't close his eyes next to a pile of firewood.

Situ Yilan looked at the students around her and shouted clearly, "Does anyone have a specific place they want to go?" Or the Chang'an food you want to try? If not, I will make a decision.

The foreign students smiled and said they had no objection. Her shining black eyes turned her head to look at Ning Que. "Shall we go have a drink?"

"I have no objection," he said.

Situ Yilan looked at his face and teased: "Chu Youxian said that you don't have to spend money to go to the Red Sleeve Mansion. Why don't we go there? I'm sure you don't have any objection to that.

Ning Que was taken aback. He would have liked to say that he did object, but she had already turned around and announced their destination. Hearing this, the excitement of the crowd rose significantly.

One of Gushan's students shook his head and said, "It's not easy to witness the best song and dance troupe in the world. This study abroad trip in Chang'an is really worth the trip!

A student from the capital of the Great River Kingdom said seriously: "It's not bad at all, I must take a look at Emperor Tang's favorite dance troupe."

A former captain from Hangu said, "Of course, everyone has to write something nice to commemorate the event."

All students nodded in agreement. They all look like young men and women of art, but everyone knows that these students are not really interested in singing and dancing, but the famous Scarlet Women. Instead of writing poetry, they wanted to tangle over the sheets of a brothel. Although they couldn't let themselves go, Situ Yilan and the other ladies of the famous family followed, wandering among the seductive scents of perfume and powder, there was nothing to laugh at.

Ning Que grabbed Chu Youxian tightly and exclaimed, "Can a woman ...... Into a brothel?

"In Chang'an, there is no place where these women can't go. The House of Red Sleeves is a dance troupe recognized by the Royal Palace. If they want to see singing and dancing, no one can say anything. Che Youxian explained.

A hand came out of the hole in the shelf. A slender student slowly crawled out. It is none other than the acclaimed genius Wang Ying. He looked at the crowd and timidly asked, "Can I go with you?"

The crowd looked at the 14-year-old boy and then looked at each other. Situ Yilan bit her lip, her eyes wandered around, and then she said, "Wang Ying, you can't go." You're from Room Four.

...

...

The great Don always oscillated between simplicity and strength, freedom and romance. More precisely, people live on the boundary between the two. People who grew up in Chang'an talk about simple state affairs and free and romantic literature. There has never been any conflict between the two. The most serious officials of the court could go to the bar after the court to play a song for the blind girl. The woman chatting in the alley can wipe away her tears after talking about the border war.

That's why brothels in Chang'an are different from any other brothel there. It's not promiscuity, because sometimes people can indulge in politics, war, dance, and music at the same time. With the exception of officials who scoff and lead a life of criticism of others, it is a great place for any government official or wealthy businessman to hang out.

Speaking of brothels, of course, let's talk about the Red Sleeve House. The Bamboo Courtyard has never had a signboard, but people in Chang'an and the Tang Dynasty know that the place itself is a signboard. It is forever known for the secret romance between the former emperor and his wife. Its glorious past shines through the building's silent façade. The House of Red Sleeves shines as brightly as ever. Tonight, it was very romantic, and the singing and dancing were very peculiar. Tonight, no one will sleep, seduced by the atmosphere of this place. Tonight... The place is getting a bit messy.

As the more than twenty male and female students of the academy crowded into the brothel, some shy, some proud, the patron's expression, which consisted of wealthy merchants and court officials, froze slightly. After recognizing some of the schoolgirls in cross-dress, they left in a hurry.

In the liberal city of Chang'an, it is not uncommon for girls to cross-dress. It is also not uncommon for father and son to patronize the same woman. But it's awkward to have two generations gathered in the same place. However, it is interesting to note that even in the midst of embarrassment, the older generation will always make way for the younger generation. Just like now.

Situ Yilan gathered everyone into a seat. She looked at the figure who hurried out the door, very similar to her fourth uncle, and had to bite her lip to stop the laughter from pouring out. She straightened her skirt and sat down, calling the manager. "I know we can't keep this place, but if we all sit in the antechamber and watch the song and dance, it should be fine, right?"

The manager had long recognized who she was and did not dare to offend her. He smiled bitterly and said, "Miss Situ... Or do you want me to call you young master? It will do what you say.

"You're an interesting guy." Situ Yilan's eyes rolled at him, and she threw him a piece of gold leaf while saying, "Bring the wine, fruits, and food." A rich man will pay today. Also, let Miss Lu Xue accompany me. You said she entered the palace when I came last year. She can't be here today, can she?

The manager couldn't hide the inconvenient look on his face, and smiled with difficulty, "She is not in the palace today, but Your Majesty has planned a grand banquet to celebrate the return of the princess." The ladies are tired of practicing. Miss Lu Xue is the lead dancer and has been off for a month. Whether she wants to come down or not is really up to her.

Dew Drop is one of the best ladies in the House of Red Sleeves. But Lu Xue's status is very different. She was the lead dancer of the song and dance troupe, and it is rumored that the queen once praised her. If she doesn't want to, no one can let her drink with the customers downstairs.

Situ Yilan is just a young girl. She's just curious about drinking and having fun in brothels and doesn't want to be accompanied by girls who are indiscriminate with some girls. Lu Xue was different, so when she heard that she was resting, she was a little unhappy.

Ning Que lowered his head and walked into the Red Sleeve Mansion with the others. He and Che Youxian manipulated to the most hidden place, eavesdropping on Situ Yilan and the manager, while pondering who would settle the bill that night. After a while, he looked at Che Youxian sympathetically and said, "She said that a rich man paid for it today." Looks like you're going to pay today. This is your job as the richest man and landlord in Chang'an.

Che Youxian shook his fan and said sarcastically: "Obviously, the rich man who paid tonight is surnamed Ning."

After speaking, he stood up and yelled at the manager playfully: "Hua Shao, don't look down on us, look at who is sitting next to me." Why don't you hurry up and get Lu Xue and Dew Drop here.

When the housekeeper named Hua Shao heard a cry, he suddenly thought of a certain young man who often appeared in the Red Sleeve Mansion in the thirteenth year of Tianqi. His heart tightened, and following the source of the voice, he saw that the person beside Young Master Chu Zhu was none other than the wicked man who didn't pay after meeting one of their girls. His body stiffened, and his expression became ugly. He lamented that they hadn't seen each other for a long time, and it was better not to see each other again.
