The brothel is a mysterious place for most people. It has a special charm that makes men want to pry out the secrets inside. Even if they already know the situation inside, it is difficult to refuse the mysterious color. Once

I lingered over and over again.

Zhou Yu is relatively unfamiliar with such a place, that is, he only knows that he has seen pigs running around. It is indeed his first time to visit such a place sincerely.

The buildings of brothels often have unique styles to highlight their differences and characteristics. For example, various eye-catching signboards are hung on the gates, or lanterns with obvious styles are used to attract customers. Of course, there are many people standing outside the door.

Women in costumes and courtesans from various families can also play a big role.

As soon as you enter the door, you will see a well-arranged inner courtyard. In the center of the inner courtyard is a hall, and on both sides are semi-hollow private rooms covered by gauze curtains. Zhou Yu also took a deliberate look and found that it was really hard to see the inside from the outside.

I could only vaguely see the figure but couldn't see the details.

But if you sit inside, it must be a different kind of scenery. From the perspective of a designer and a man, Zhou Yu can only give a thumbs up and say something awesome. This is simply a comparison of the man's qualities.

Be careful and careful.

The layout on the second floor is slightly different. There are also private rooms surrounding the tic-tac-toe in the inner courtyard. There are no hollow decorations on them but pure tulle blocking. People inside can clearly see outside and even more clearly.

Seeing the stage between the first and second floors, but you can still only vaguely see the dim figures in other private rooms, it really tickles your heart.

Perhaps because of the presence of Ma Shun, the Madam directly took Zhou Yu and others to the best seats on the second floor. As for the third floor, it was no longer a place to drink.

The first floor has tables but no beds, the second floor has tables and beds, the third floor has no tables but beds. As for the inner courtyard, there is no table at all. The layout of this brothel can be considered exquisite and high-end and elegant.

The old bustard was also familiar with Ma Shun, and when he found out that Ma Shun was not the main person in this group, he secretly screamed, but when he worked in such a place for a long time, he may have seen more ghosts than people.

Naturally, she has a face that is calm at all times, and not to mention other people, this old bustard has also received many high-ranking officials. After all, as the top, most elegant and unique brothel in the capital, it is also a place where many officials like to come and have fun.

.

After Zhou Yu entered the private room, he sat on the main seat. When he sat down on the soft chair, he could feel that it was also carefully designed. Needless to say, it was comfortable. If it were a top-notch brothel, even the guests would sit there.

If you feel uncomfortable, it definitely cannot be called the top class. Sitting on it will make people feel very relaxed, but other than that, it will make people feel empty.

Glancing at Ma Shun, who was standing aside with a red face, Zhou Yu chuckled softly: "My prince is already here, Sir Ma, so you don't have to worry about it. Let's have fun and drink today. Being happy is the most important thing.

"

Ma Shun twitched the corner of his mouth twice, but he could only cooperate and said: "I would rather obey my order than I should be respectful. I would also like to ask the Crown Prince to allow me to make arrangements."

"go."

Ma Shun glared at the smiling madam: "Come out with me!"

When Ma Shun took the madam out, Cheng Jing whispered something in Xing'an's ear and drove Xing'an out.

Zhou Yu was quite relaxed, leaning back on his chair and watching the singing and dancing on the stage, with a faint smile on his lips: "Big companion, do you think there are many court officials who look like dogs in the daytime in the private rooms of this brothel? This table

How much money will be spent on drinks?"

Cheng Jing smiled bitterly: "Old minister, I don't know."

"That's not right." Zhou Yu chuckled and joked: "If you are not honest, I don't believe you have never been to a place like this before."

Cheng Jing was helpless: "Old minister, I really don't know. I never had the chance to come to this place before."

"Yeah." Zhou Yu nodded lightly, sighed and shook his head: "My wife and children are fine at home."

"Thank you for your concern, your majesty. My wife and children are all fine." Cheng Jing replied, as if he felt what Zhou Yu was thinking, and said: "I didn't blame your majesty, I only blamed myself for not being clear about things at the beginning.

However, the late emperor has shown extra mercy to his old ministers."

Zhou Yu paused and said: "It's okay if you don't blame me. You have taken care of me since I was a child and taught me how to read and understand things. I think that after so many years, I haven't done anything for you, but you are always taking care of me.

Now that everything is on track, I will draw up a decree tomorrow to recruit your son Cheng Kai to the palace as a companion, and to enter the Zhanshi Mansion to receive the first and sixth grade Fu Cheng."

Cheng Jing's eyes widened: "Your Majesty, isn't this inappropriate?"

Zhou Yu said: "There is nothing inappropriate. Zhan Shifu is an official of the emperor. I can appoint anyone I want. What's more, Zhan Shifu is in charge of the internal affairs of the emperor and princes. Those left by Baozong should be replaced."

They all have to be replaced, I need more trustworthy people around me."

Cheng Jing originally wanted to refuse, but as soon as Zhou Yu's words of rejection came out, he was blocked and couldn't say anything anymore. He could only say helplessly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, I understand."

"Um."

Although Cheng Jing is now a eunuch and Zhou Yu's chief steward, Cheng Jing was once a true Jinshi and a true scholar.

It was just that not long after Xuanzong came to the throne, he was implicated in a rebellion case. Cheng Jing, who had just been assigned to serve as a subordinate to King Zhu Jixi of the Jin Dynasty, unfortunately took the blame. He was so unlucky that he was implicated without knowing anything. He was originally regarded as an accomplice.

Everyone should be executed, but it is unjustifiable that Cheng Jing just arrived and was executed without knowing anything.

At that time, Xuanzong was prepared to sentence him to eternal exile in the army. But in fact, did Xuanzong really not know that Cheng Jing was implicated? He knew it, but so what. After he took office, he couldn't figure out what was going on. Is he really ignorant or just pretending to be stupid?

?But no matter what, Xuanzong still knew in his heart that this guy was more implicated, so he was not prepared to execute him but let him go into the army.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But Cheng Jing thought that the exile would harm his descendants, so he just wanted to die, so he wanted to die. Xuanzong was Zhou Yu's cheap father. After thinking about it, he thought it was too

Yes, so Cheng Jing became

The eunuch was sent to Prince Yin's Mansion, where he was taught how to read and write by Zhou Yu. From then on to this day, he became Zhou Yu's general manager. You must know that with Cheng Jing's current vision and knowledge and the things he has come into contact with, he will

There is no problem if it is thrown into the cabinet.

So Cheng Jing has children and a wife, and Cheng Jing’s son is also a very knowledgeable person. If we calculate the time, he will also be admitted to Jinshi two years later, and he is also a talent that can be reused. This is the key

My own people and direct descendants can use it with confidence.

After a while, Ma Shun returned to the private room again. When he saw Zhou Yu sitting down and Cheng Jing standing, he did not dare to sit down. Instead, he stood on the other side, standing on the left and right with Cheng Jing as if they were guardians.

Written by Zhou Yu.

"What are you doing standing up? Sit down." Zhou Yu waved his hand for both of them to sit down and asked, "Where's the wine? Why haven't you brought the wine?"

Ma Shun glanced at Cheng Jing, as if to confirm the expression on Cheng Jing's face, and responded in a low voice: "It will be delivered right away."

This guy still remembered that Zhou Yu had called himself the Crown Prince just now, so now he was very consistent with this title, and reminded him in a low voice: "Master Prince, brothel people are talkative. If word gets out and people know about it, Prince Master, there may be ministers here when you come here."

The court is talking nonsense."

Zhou Yu waved his hand boldly: "It doesn't matter. As long as you don't tell me, no one will know. The most I can do is let Prince Xiang teach me a lesson."

Ma Shun was speechless, and then asked: "Master, why don't you just listen to a little song and watch a performance?"

"No, my prince comes here once in a while, so of course I want to drink and chat. I also want to see this unique Zuixianju in the capital...is it called this, right?"

"yes."

Zhou Yu said: "By the way, I also want to see how the oiran in Zuixianju, who has become quite famous recently, is doing. Will there be any students who will comment on poems today?"

Ma Shun smiled bitterly, how could he not know that Zhou Yu had never heard of Zuixianju's name, and he didn't even know who the oiran was, but he just wanted to see it.

"The official knows."

Ma Shun shook his head and walked out of the private room door again. Not long after, someone brought drinks and food, and then the woman Yingying Yanyan was brought into the private room.

There was a performance on the stage downstairs, and the escorts in the box were also performing. Zhou Yu really just watched the performance and had a drink, clapping his hands from time to time but not too deeply.

High-end brothels like this have to pay more attention to talents and social interaction. Simply put, they are all about relationships, while low-end brothels are more purely about flesh and blood business.

Just like Chunxi, Ma Shun's old friend, he probably showed up when Ma Shun came. On weekdays, he would only perform on the stage in the atrium and not accompany anyone else. After all, there is only one

Ma Shun could bring enough money to her and the brothel without having to apologize to others. Even if the relationship goes further, Chunxi might be taken out of this place by Ma Shun and become a concubine.

But as long as you have the money to talk to whom you want to talk to, it's a small problem. Let alone the Spring Festival, no matter how many summers, autumns and winters are, it doesn't matter. Not long ago, Ma Shun was the kind of person who had both money and power. Just like this recently

I have indeed kept a low profile these days and haven’t been to a place like this for a long time.

Slowly, the sounds inside and outside the box gradually became quieter. Ma Shun understood what was going on and quickly explained to Zhou Yu: "It's time for the oiran performance."

"Oh?" Zhou Yu nodded and said, "You have to take a closer look. I heard that the oiran is quite beautiful and talented. Many literati and dignitaries come here because of her reputation. I don't know if I can hold it down based on my reputation.

The others will have a kiss tonight."

Ma Shun and Cheng Jing are both vigilant people, and as soon as Zhou Yu said these words, they understood the true meaning.

This is to see who is so unlucky that he happens to meet him.

Several women in the box who were performing as escorts and chatters also burst into laughter. The woman sitting next to Zhou Yu smiled sweetly and said: "My lord, oirans don't normally serve in the court, but with their status as nobles, they might be able to make oirans."

Maybe even willingly."

Zhou Yu smiled and put his hand on the other person's chin: "What about you."

The young woman's face suddenly turned red, she lowered her head and said timidly: "If you like it...I can do that too."

Zhou Yu laughed and pointed towards Ma Shun at the woman beside him: "Remember to reward me later."

Ma Shun nodded repeatedly to indicate that he had taken note of it, glanced at the people around Zhou Yu and said: "Everyone who is with the prince is clean, even if it is the first time today, he is accompanying the prince."

Zhou Yu nodded lightly without comment and looked towards the stage without any expression.

The woman in a purple dress finally walked onto the stage in anticipation. Under the candlelight, she was like a blooming cloud, exuding unparalleled charm. Her eyebrows were like stars, the waves were like wild waves, her figure was graceful and swaying, and her makeup was even more exquisite and elegant.

She is charming and has a very special charm that makes people miss her every time she moves.

Even Zhou Yu couldn't help but look twice at the oiran who came out when he saw him for the first time, not to mention that the others must be even more unbearable. On the contrary, this guy Ma Shun curled his lips as if he didn't care at all.

Zhou Yu asked Ma Shun with some surprise: "This girl is considered a beauty, but you don't like her?"

"The chin is raised too high, the eyes are shiny, and the breasts are too small. She is not the kind of woman who would turn towards her man." Ma Shun shook his head honestly and said, "I like plump, well-behaved, gentle and obedient women."

"Yeah." Zhou Yu nodded lightly and looked at the person who was already sitting down, holding the pipa and preparing to play. She was clearly performing for everyone, but from her actions, what she was about to do now seemed like charity.
