Shuying Pavilion is a rising star of brothels in Beijing. Mother Qiongniang used to be a smash hit top brand, and after saving enough money, she redeemed herself and came out to work alone. In a few years, it was impressive.

She's bent on making a difference, and she's put a lot of effort into it. Her sparse shadow pavilion is titled with the poem "sparse shadow horizontal slope water is shallow, dark fragrance floating moon dusk", so there is a plum forest in the garden, and there are plum blossoms everywhere in the building. There are not many girls in Shuying Pavilion, but they are all trained by Qiongniang to play and sing, and they can also write and ink. These girls are not easy to see, and the guests who enter the door and give a reward to the tea boy are twenty taels of silver. The banquet cost two hundred taels of silver, and the girl only came out to sing a few songs. If she wants to stay and say a few words, it will not only be a matter of silver, but the girl must be in a good mood and be able to look at you well. It's just that the old men in Beijing eat this set the most, and they squander a lot of money in Shuying Pavilion, just to eat the girls' eyes. If any of them are invited to sit in the girl's room, they will definitely be shown off everywhere as a good story.

Qiongniang knows that men are all cheap bones, and she doesn't want to put her wife and concubine at home, and she loves to go to the brothel to stick a hot face. As long as she has the shelves of Shuying Pavilion to the fullest, she has a lot of money in her pocket, and she can't help but laugh every day when the museum is closed.

However, it is inevitable that the tree will attract wind, and recently other brothels have sent turtles and slaves to disturb them. She has found a few ordinary nursing homes to guard in the courtyard, but if there are dignitaries and nobles who invite the girl out to accompany the banquet and sing songs, these farmers will not be useful. You have to find someone who can do it, and the appearance is not obscene and dirty. Standing far behind the girl in this way makes the Shuying Pavilion unique, worthy of the large amount of silver spent by the guests.

At this time, Qiongniang sat in the Taishi chair. There was a young man standing in front of him, it was Fang Zhongjin, who had changed his name to Chen Afu. He looked a little better than Qiongniang asked. The person is tall and straight, with a face like a crown of jade, and it is rare to have a bee waist and ape back, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, although handsome but not manly.

Qiong Niang secretly admired in her heart, what skills does this Qingsha Gang Boss Yang have, where did he find such a young man? Just looking at the appearance, Qiong Niang has already decided in her heart that it is him.

"You're here just in time, there's a banquet today. You will follow Qing Huan to the Han Palace. You helpers should have told you what to do. I'll just tell you what not to do, and it's the most taboo to be unclean when you go to a big family. Keep your body clean, your hands and feet clean, and your mouth clean. Do you remember?" Seeing the young man in front of him, he said, "You go and change your clothes first, and then follow me to see Qinghuan." ”

A moment later, Fang Zhongjin returned to Qiongniang in a tall black suit. Qiong Niang's eyes lit up, nodded with satisfaction and took him to Qinghuan's house.

If the girls in Shuying Pavilion are all Yaochi fairies, then Qinghuan is even the Nine Heavens Xuannu. She has an extraordinary status in Shuying Pavilion, and even Qiong Niang has to coax her for three points. Qing Huan easily didn't come out of Shuying Pavilion to sing, but it was because King Han sent someone to invite him that he was willing to come forward this time.

Qiong Niang led Fang Zhongjin into the house. There was a woman sitting in the room, she was beautiful, but her expression was indifferent, it was Qinghuan. She was letting someone put on makeup at this time, and suddenly heard a knock at the door, which turned out to be her mother Qiongniang bringing a young man in. Everyone in the room stopped what they were doing and looked at the young man in a daze.

Qiong Niang said: "Qinghuan, Lu'er, you all hurry up, don't let King Han wait for us." This young man is a newly hired bodyguard named Chen Afu. If you have anything to do, just greet him, don't wronged yourself in the Han Palace. As he spoke, he said to the little girl who was putting on makeup for Qing Huan: "Lu'er, help me take a good look at it." He nodded meaningfully to the girl named Lu'er.

Lu'er was a little girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, and she had big eyes that were as flexible and beautiful as a fawn, and her skin was unusually fair, and she seemed to have some freckles on her nose. Her hair was slightly yellow and curly, her nose was straighter than normal, her eyes were deeper than normal, and she was actually a mixed-race girl. It's just that her Han blood is deeper, and everything is different. She winked playfully at Qiongniang. Qiongniang also took Fang Zhongjin and left Qinghuan's house.

Lu'er was quick with her hands and feet, and helped Qinghuan finish her makeup. It only looks dignified and beautiful, and it turns out that there are some flaws on the face that are also covered up. She took care of herself in the mirror, and gave two taels of silver to Lu'er with satisfaction, praising her for her unparalleled craftsmanship. Then he took the personal maid out of the house, and naturally went to the Han Palace.

A little girl in the room saw it and said, "Good girl, Sister Lu'er, you have only been painting makeup for an hour, and you have two taels of silver." I serve Miss Qinghuan here every day, and it's only two taels a month. ”

Lu'er hid the silver and said, "Of course, my craft is worth two taels of silver." If you give me two taels, I will cover you and look like a fairy out of the dust, no worse than the sisters here. ”

The little girl stuck out her tongue and said, "If I really have a big deal, I must ask you to put on makeup even if I don't eat snacks for a month." Then he asked, "Mom asked you to look at this young man, what do you think?"

Lu'er said: "I think it's good, it's him." ”

The little girl chuckled and said, "Sister Lu'er, you are known for not loving beautiful men, it seems that the sons of the past are not beautiful enough." Now that you really meet a good-looking person, you nod so quickly. ”

Lu'er blushed and said, "What are you talking about?" I really saw that his character was good, so I asked my mother to keep him. When the usual man sees Qing Huan, there are no more than two things, either staring at her, and he can't wait for his eyes to fall off. Or pretend to be sanctimonious, but you can't help but peek. He was the only one, although he also saw Qinghuan when he walked into the house, he was like seeing an ordinary person. Naturally, such a man will not mess around. Not to mention ......"

"What's more!"

Lu'er didn't answer, but what she thought in her heart was that this man saw Qing Huan as if he were an ordinary person, and he was not surprised to see her, a person with human blood, let alone a look of disgust or dislike. This is the first time in her life. No matter how you look at this person, he is not an ordinary gang disciple, who is he?
