As a sweetheart in the palm of your hand

Chapter 129

Jin Qiu Shuo Shuo,

"In the yamen, there are ten in each building, and there are some who are raised by officials in Xiyan Hutong, counting one and only 23. Where else are they going?" Fang Wu counted carefully, counting with his fingers. , the long eyebrows slightly raised.

She was sitting in front of the table, flipping through the girls' music books that she brought back from Bai Xi yesterday.

There are a total of 25 thick notebooks, indicating that there are a total of 25 listed for business in the building.

In this building, most of the girls who have passed the Ming Road in the government are selling their art but not their bodies, but if any official unanimously buys the girls' first night with a lot of money, it is okay, but most of them will be raised in Qiyan Hutong afterwards, and rarely Some were taken back as concubines.

Because Daman's concubine has no children and cannot be included in the family tree, she may not even be buried in her husband's tomb. Even Liang Qian is like this, let alone a lowly concubine with a happy family background?It's too humble, and most officials are unwilling to let these people get started.

One is face, and the other is irresponsibility.

"What?" Ye Zhuqing turned her head and frowned.

Fang Wu emphasized, "Let me tell you, I'm short by two girls." She stressed the accent as if she was afraid that people would not understand.Each word, resounding, broke through the door of the heart as if with edges and corners.

"No wonder. No wonder you want to kill the bustard. Prostitutes are ruthless. Even the sisters who get along day and night may not know how many girls are in this building and who is missing. But the bustard is different. Every girl in the building is carefully selected by her." It was carefully selected, she naturally knows it." Ji Xuan immediately reacted.

"It's really a cover-up. One step is not in vain. It seems that our previous guess is correct. The other party must be familiar with the situation in this building, and we must find out. It is the two girls who are missing." Fang Wu said, looking To the yamen servant on the side.

The yamen servant understood, bowed to salute, and led the rest of the people out with sticks.

"In my opinion, the other party is not only familiar with the situation in the brothel, but also probably very clear about the strictness I have on the musicians." Ye Zhuqing said, grabbing a wolf and howling: "Where the steward brothel is, the music collectors are very strict." If you want to get rid of your nationality, all the officials need to submit documents to the Ministry of Rites. The brothel, the Ministry of Rites, and the inner court of the palace, Shang Lexuan, all have to take care of it. If you don’t want to get rid of your nationality, the woman’s offspring cannot be raised in her husband’s house. , following her husband’s surname, let alone recording it under her own name.”

He came sentence by sentence, and it seemed that every sentence was telling a person's life.

"If you don't bring it back, you will raise it outside, and if you have children, you will not be able to enter the family tree. If you have serious business at home, it will be a good thing to sue the yamen for three to five years. There is nothing wrong with taking an official and losing your life. That's right, Hutong Most of them don't even know who they are serving." Ye Zhuqing continued.

Daman is not a scholar, farmer, businessman, but a royal, aristocratic, official, good, agricultural, late, and happy family.

For ordinary people, it is best to be a noble family, but it needs to be bestowed by the royal family.

"So, these two girls are not mediocre." Ji Xuan nodded and followed in agreement.

"Naturally. If it's mediocre, can you provoke the other party to take such a big risk and let these two get out of trouble?" Ye Zhuqing asked back, her eyes seemed to say that what Ji Xuan said was just nonsense.

For some reason, Fang Wu saw three points of contempt and three points of jealousy in those eyes.

In a short while, I heard the sound of torsos and the girls' screams, and they were pushed in by the yamen servants one by one and stood in one place.

I saw a pair of eyes pitifully looking at them sitting behind the table not far away.

Fang Wu raised her head with scrutiny, as if she wanted to put aside their hearts and look at the flesh and blood inside, but she couldn't see it, and lowered her head again.

He took over Howl from Ye Zhuqing.

Then I found a blank piece of paper, looked at the faces of the girls, and carefully selected them one by one. I still can't believe every word the girls said.

Naturally, only face-to-paint comparisons can be made.Fortunately, the painters of Daman and the officials of the Ministry of Rites are not bad, they are dereliction of duty, and with a little effort, they can be corresponded with.

It didn't take long for Fang Wu to copy out the ten people in the yamen on the blank paper, and even took out the music books.

"Girls, which officials have you met during your daily reception?" Ye Zhuqing looked over one by one and asked.

For some reason, Fang Wu seemed to see some girls winking at them, trying to do something.

However, the girls looked at each other, and no one was the first bird.

Fang Wu nodded to Ye Zhuqing, and interjected, "I think you don't want to live in a fixed place either, and help the government settle the case, although there won't be any major changes. Maybe you can get some money to redeem yourself?"

Fang Wu knew very well what it was like to live without a fixed place and to be displaced. These girls had food and clothing, and some even caused paintings and calligraphy themselves, but as long as they had money, anyone could buy them and dispose of them at will. In business, they can't have a second word, and even the slightest conflict will be beaten and kicked.

But where she put her words, those girls didn't care, as if they were invulnerable and unbreakable, they didn't care about a few cars of money, or even redemption.

In fact, redemption is nothing, as long as they are happy.Even after redeeming himself, he was remembered by the government that day, and he had to pick up guests and make fun of others.It's just that not everyone who has money can do it.

So what Fang Wu said was not attractive.

"Which family is this lady from, and she can sit in the court. Why don't you recommend my family to the officials of the Yi family, so that the family can have a retirement home. Then what should I say to you?" One of the girls made a noise. Neng Neng stepped forward and leaned over to Shangfang Wu, and said such a sentence in a voice that made his bones crumble after hearing it.

"I know I'm humble, so I don't dare to expect too much. I just want a safe place to stay, and I can follow and serve you every day." The girl was stunned when she saw several people and continued.

But no one spoke.Fang Wu was taken aback. She never knew that she could act like this before the court and openly seek glory. What is this?
Because I am good enough, is it worth an official self-destructing the Great Wall and self-destructing prospects?
"Please think carefully before speaking. This is a government office, and you cannot speak nonsense." Ye Zhuqing rolled up several books and knocked on the table to remind.

"I asked you a question yesterday, but what you said was quite different. Please tell me whether you are in the same brothel or not."

Ye Zhuqing said fiercely.

"This pleading says that the robbers came into the house and insulted you and asked you to do so. But this pleading also says that you colluded with so-and-so to offend the local government. , That's why I made this bad move. Can any of you tell me what's going on?"

Ye Zhuqing took out the paper, turned it in front of the girls, pointed to the black and white paper and said.

Fang Wu couldn't see what was written on the white paper from his own direction, and he believed that he might not be able to see clearly from the girls' direction, but Ye Zhuqing's words were clear enough that it didn't matter whether he could read them clearly or not.
