Outlaws of the Marsh

Chapter 405 Said that the servant wanted to see him (please subscribe!)

...

Once you become a prostitute, combing becomes an inevitable procedure.

The so-called clean men are actually just a deceptive joke. There are very few real clean men.

The relationship between prostitutes and courtiers is as subtle as money and banknotes—money is not necessarily a banknote, but a banknote must be money.A prostitute may not have been a prostitute, but a prostitute will always become a prostitute in the end.A guest usually treats a courtier no differently than he treats a prostitute.In other words, Qingguan people are a kind of high-level prostitutes, people who need to pay more to be bought.

Before grooming, the madam will generally try to create opportunities to enhance the popularity and reputation of the prostitute.

After combing, the madam will be eager to make money, and urge the prostitutes to do as much business as possible as soon as possible.

The time when a prostitute "combs" is too early at the age of 13, which is called flower testing; at the age of 14, it is called flowering; at the age of 15, it is called picking flowers.

Ordinary prostitutes, at the latest at the age of 15, will comb their hair. Unless they are famous, such as Li Shishi and Zhao Yuannu, they can only delay a few years, but only a few years. Their fame can stand for them for a while, but it can't stand for them for a lifetime. There will always be dignitaries and dignitaries they can't afford to offend to groom them.

Hua Xiangrong has already gained some fame, which is not difficult to see from the overcrowding of the building today - many of them came here with the idea of ​​grooming Hua Xiangrong.

Hua Xiangrong's combing ceremony is undoubtedly the finale of today's show, so it is naturally impossible to stage it directly - if it is staged too quickly, it will make the building lose a lot of money.

In addition to playing tea circle, there are also performances such as singing, dancing and musical instruments.

Many people listened with gusto and immersed themselves in it, but Li Yan was so sleepy.

This can't be blamed on Li Yan, he didn't like these things in the first place, besides, the current music is too monotonous for Li Yan, who has been bombarded by the music of later generations.

Seeing this, Li Zhu and Fang Xuedu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, the governor really just took a look, it's not a good way!"

Not long after, a servant girl came to Li Yan's table, and then bowed to Li Yanyingying, saying: "This official has invited you."

Yan Qing helped Li Yan answer, saying: "I don't know why my sister is looking for my master?"

The maid said: "My wife is here to invite you."

Yan Qing was very different at first, then the vigilance flashed in his eyes, and then he asked calmly, "Which lady is your master?"

The maid said proudly, "Master Zhao."

Yan Qing confirmed with some disbelief: "But Zhao Xingshou?"

The maid said, "Of course."

Zhao Yuannu wanted to see him, which really caught Li Yan by surprise!
Li Yan smiled and said, "Lead the way ahead."

Zhao Yuannu's one-time donation of 100 million yuan made Li Yan appreciate her very much. Besides, it's not interesting to listen to monotonous music and unimpressive dances here. Why don't you go and see Zhao Yuannu? what to do.

Seeing that Li Yan was going, Yan Qing hurriedly said to the maid: "We all want to see Master Zhao, we don't dare to ask extravagantly, we just hope that we can see Master Zhao from a distance and be satisfied. One hundred taels of gold and silver, I want to give to my sister."

It's rare for people in brothels to be unfavorable, and besides, Yan Qing's hands are thousands of taels of gold and silver, so she can't help but be tempted.

The maid replied happily: "I will tell the lady in a while, you choose three or four people to enter with the officials, and the others wait in the ear room."

Yan Qing said: "Thank you sister."

Li Yan said: "The senior officials, the two military advisers and Xiao Yi, come with me."

There's nothing to say about that.

Chai Jin and Yan Qing are frequent visitors to the party, and they understand the ways of the brothel, and it would be embarrassing not to take them with them.

Lu Junyi and the others are martial artists, not suitable for such occasions. Moreover, Li Zhu can defeat Lu Junyi by virtue of martial arts alone, and Fang Xuedu can also win a [-]-point match with Sun Anzhan (while Sun An and Lu Junyi have a [-]-point match regardless of victory or defeat). Hua Rong was afraid that Lu Junyi would lose, so he shot an arrow; Xu Ning later came to break Sun An's horse's leg. After Sun An fell from the horse, Yang Zhi and Lu Junyi needed to come to capture Sun An alive. The strength of Fang Xuedu also shows the strength of Fang Xuedu.), Therefore, with Li Zhu and Fang Xuedu guarding, Li Yan's safety must be guaranteed. Besides, Lu Junyi and others are waiting in the ear room, and they are divided into two groups. He could rush over to rescue Li Yan in a matter of minutes.

A group of people went straight to the door of Zhao Yuannu's room. The maid lifted the green cloth curtain, raised the mottled bamboo curtain, and led everyone into the middle door.

Li Yan looked around, and saw a bowl of mandarin duck lanterns hanging on the wall, and a Boshan bronze incense burner on the rhinoceros skin incense table below. Celebrity landscape painting, under which there are four rhinoceros skins.

Seeing that no one came out, the group of people turned into the courtyard, and there was another big guest seat, with three exquisitely carved beds of fragrant nanmu, covered with purple brocade mattresses of falling flowers and flowing water, hanging a jade shed with good lamps, and displaying strange antiques.

The maid goes into the room.

Not long after, Zhao Yuannu came out accompanied by two maids.

Before the person arrived, Zhao Yuannu's crisp voice came out first, "I will be a hero in life, and I will be a hero in death. I still think of Xiang Yu, and I refuse to cross Jiangdong... This poem is dignified and dignified, it penetrates people's chest, and points directly to people's spine Bones, high officials are very bold."

Li Yan cupped his hands and said, "My lady is absurd."

Zhao Yuannu came to the front, and said politely: "A senior official is too humble. I have seen thousands of good poems, and none of them can compare with this five-character poem of a senior official... I wonder if this poem has a name?"

Li Yan said: ""Summer Quatrains"."

Zhao Yuannu asked Li Yan and others to sit down.

Li Yan and the others were also polite, and sat directly at the guest seats on the left.

Zhao Yuannu also sat down on the right, accompanied by the host.

The maid brought tea, and Zhao Yuannu poured tea with Li Yan, Chai Jin, Li Zhu, Fang Xuedu and Yanqing himself.

After tea, Zhao Yuannu said, "Whose poems do you like the most?"

Li Yan said: "I'm not good at this, let's talk about something else."

Zhao Yuannu was at a loss!
For one thing, Zhao Yuannu didn't expect that Li Yan, who could write "Summer Quatrains", was not good at poetry, or didn't like poetry!
Secondly, Zhao Yuannu didn't expect that Li Yan's aura was so strong that she didn't dare to disobey it. This was something that had never happened before!
Fortunately-

Zhao Yuannu is also a woman who has seen the world!

Zhao Yuannu smiled and said, "Then I don't know what the officials are doing?"

Li Yan said: "Soldier."

Zhao Yuannu asked in surprise, "Soldier?"

This really doesn't blame Zhao Yuannu's poor eyesight. Having been in a high position for a few years, Li Yan's military temperament has faded a lot. In addition, Li Yan has no armor on him, so it is really difficult to judge that he is a soldier.

Li Yan smiled and said, "Not like?"

Zhao Yuannu said: "It's not like...you have been on the battlefield?"

Li Yan said: "I once killed hundreds of enemies with my own hands in a single battle."

Zhao Yuannu naturally didn't believe it, and said with a smile: "Since the general has such abilities, why didn't he go north to recover Yanyun's homeland?"

Li Yan said: "I'm going."

As soon as Li Yan said this, the expressions of Chai Jin, Li Zhu, Fang Xuedu, and Yan Qing all changed!
Zhao Yuannu tentatively asked, "The general belongs to the Liangshan Army?"

Li Yan said: "Exactly."

Hearing Li Yan's admission, Zhao Yuannu asked, "Is the governor ready to go north?"

Li Yan said: "It is possible."

Zhao Yuannu was overjoyed, and said: "My family knows that the governor is very human, how can he run a dog?"

Li Yandao: "Even if the governor doesn't send troops to attack Liaoxi capital, it won't be a camp. He may have his own considerations."

Zhao Yuannu was silent for a while, and said: "He is the great hero in the heart of the slave family. Who else would he give up for the Han people to recover the former land of Yanyun? So the slave family hopes that he will go north."

Li Yan was a little speechless: "You..." - for a while, Li Yan didn't know what to say.

Zhao Yuannu said again: "Can the general see the governor?"

Li Yandao: "We meet often."

Zhao Yuannu was overjoyed and said: "Then, general, can you send a message to the governor for the slave family, saying that the slave family wants to see him?"

Li Yan said with a smile: "What do you see him doing? Do you play the qin and flute for him?"

Zhao Yuannu blushed, and said softly, "Yes."
