Qingxuan Tower, located three miles away from Qingshan Palace, is where Liang An knew about the book collection from a doctor at the medical clinic.

But after actually arriving here, Liang An was shocked to find that this place was not a library, but a brothel dedicated to literati and poets drinking flower wine.

No wonder when I asked about this place on the road, the passers-by had expressions on their faces that said I understand...

After being speechless for a moment, Liang An glanced at Li Zhaoxun, who was motionless beside him, and then walked into Qingxuan Tower.

The pharmacist at the medical center told him that there are two places with a large collection of books on this street. One is the Honghua Poetry Society. Unfortunately, after he went there just now, he was disappointed and found that although the Honghua Poetry Society had many books, they were all poetry collections.

Works like this, and they are all new. I touched them all around and found no experience points. The other one is the Qingxuan Tower in front of me.

As soon as they entered Qingxuan Tower, a beautiful woman with gorgeous makeup walked over, with a smile on her face and bowed her head: "Oh, you two gentlemen, my dear, I am being polite. Do you have an appointment, or are you here to support me temporarily?

ah."

Two gentlemen?

Glancing at Li Zhaoxun's full beard, Liang An smiled and said: "I heard that your Qingxuan Tower has a rich collection of books. I wonder if you have any ancient books here? If not, you can also let me see your collection."

The beautiful lady Ai Niang glanced at Liang An in surprise and said with a smile: "Young master has really come to the right place. We have a collection of books here, including many ancient books. We will never let you go home disappointed."

Liang An felt happy and said, "Take me to see it."

"This way please."

Under the leadership of Ai Niang, the two came to a noisy courtyard. The courtyard was full of literati who talked loudly and played the game of hut. There was also a beautiful girl walking among them, talking and drinking.

But Liang An didn't even look at the literati and Mei Ji, and his eyes were fixed on the corridors surrounding the courtyard.

The corridor here has been specially added with many grids, and each grid is full of books. In addition to the corridor, there are several rooms around the courtyard. Through the open door, you can see the layout of the study room inside, which also houses a collection of books.

Quite a few.

"Yan Paradise here is where our Qingxuan Tower books are stored. Most of the books on the market can be found here, and the beauties here are also full of poems and books." Ai Niang smiled at Liang An with ambiguous eyes.

: "I wonder if the young master has any girls he is familiar with? If not, my beloved mother will recommend a few for you to ensure your satisfaction."

Liang An waved his hand: "That's not necessary, girl. How much money do you need to read here? I'll leave after reading it. Master, if you are interested, you can have fun while I read the book first."

Ai Niang wanted to say something more, but she saw that Liang An had already walked directly to the corridor, reaching out to touch the books one after another, as if he was looking for the one he wanted to read.

Seeing this, Li Zhaoxun smiled bitterly and said to his wife: "My eldest young master likes to read, so you don't have to worry about him. We will pay the money as normal."

Ai Niang was stunned immediately.

Going to a brothel just to read? Who would believe this!

But the fact is right in front of you...

There are actually people in this world who like books more than women. It’s really a big world and there are all kinds of people.

Thinking to herself, Ainiang smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, we have seen people who love books. I will say hello to the girls and ask them not to disturb the young master. I wonder if you need..."

"I don't need it either. You can go and do your work." Li Zhaoxun waved his hand.

Ainiang saw that he was a little impatient, so she said goodbye with a smile and left. Anyway, Li Zhaoxun had already said that the money would be paid, and it was okay without entertaining, so she was happy and relaxed.

Touching the rows of books, Liang An suddenly felt a pain in his hand, which was a sign that he had gained experience points. The pain was unusually weak, not much when he thought about it, but he still felt happy.

It’s good to have a beginning! This means he’s not in the wrong place.

Instead of taking out the book that made him feel stinging and taking a closer look, Liang An continued to touch other books.

What he needs now is experience points, not a certain book. Even if the book may have good content, he doesn't have time to read it. It is only right to get the experience points and go home to practice the Record of the Setting Sun!

"Who am I asking? Isn't this Brother Liang? Are you here to drink wine too?"

Suddenly, a slightly drunken voice sounded, interrupting Liang An who was touching the book.

Liang An felt that the voice was somewhat familiar, and turned around in surprise. He was surprised to find that the person who made the voice was Hong Wohu, the eldest son of the imperial family, who had come to Qingshan Palace a few days ago to see his artistic conception.

Frowning slightly, but quickly hiding it, Liang An smiled and said: "It turns out to be Brother Hong. Unfortunately, I'm not here to drink wine. I just heard that there are many books here and wanted to borrow them. I'm not good at other things.

Only books are hard to put down, especially ancient books."

Hong Wohu was stunned for a moment, and then he looked unbelieving: "Come here to read? Brother Liang, please don't fool me. These are just useless books, what's there to read?"

Liang An smiled bitterly and said, "I don't want to either. It's just that I didn't bring many books with me when I came to the capital this time, and I didn't want to read them. I happened to hear that Qingxuan Tower has countless books, so I came directly. I didn't expect that this place was actually a brothel.

.”

Seeing Liang An's helpless and serious look, Hong Wohu was a little stunned: "Do you really just want to read a book?"

"Why did I lie to you?"

Hong Wohu looked at Liang An as if he had seen a ghost.

Immediately, he laughed: "Is there any beauty in the book? Besides, reading the book is the same any day. I happened to meet, Brother Liang, why don't you come to our place for a drink? Your deeds are passed down in our Taihao Palace.

It's open, everyone wants to get to know you."

With that said, he stretched out his hand and pulled Liang An towards the courtyard.

There is a table in the courtyard with two people holding the beauty in their arms and looking over here. They must be the friends he mentioned.

Liang An suddenly had a headache.

He was afraid that this would affect his experience point collection, but he didn't avoid it.

"Everyone, this is Brother Liang, the son of Liang Lesheng, whom I mentioned before, and Zhao Ling'er's cousin."

Pulling Liang An to the table, Hong Wohu introduced enthusiastically: "Brother Liang, these two are the sons of imperial physicians, Wu Mian, Wu Qinwei, and Nangong Jian, Nangong Tianxing."

Liang An raised his hands and bowed: "It turns out it's Young Master Wu and Young Master Nangong..."

After some polite greetings, they all got to know each other. Hong Wohu said with a smile: "Guess what Brother Liang is here for? To read! This is the first time I have seen someone come to a brothel to read. Alas! Brother Liang

, you really don’t know the style, there are countless beauties in Qingxuan Tower, how can you come here just to read a book?"

Liang An smiled bitterly and could only find a sentence he had heard in his previous life to excuse himself: "There is a beauty like jade in the book."

"What a saying. There is beauty in the book. Brother, you are a real scholar!" Someone from the table next to him suddenly praised.

Liang An and others looked at the sound, and saw that the person who made the sound was a handsome young man, holding a folding fan in his hand, sitting upright, with an elegant temperament.

Seeing Liang An and others watching, the young man folded his folding fan, bowed and smiled and said, "I'm so young, I'm so rude, I'm so rude, please forgive me."

Liang An was about to speak modestly when he suddenly noticed that the expressions of Hong Wohu and the others suddenly changed.

"Mi Jinyu? Are you Mi Jinyu from the Chen State Mission?" Hong Wohu said in a deep voice.

"Exactly." Mi Jinyu smiled and nodded.

Hong Wohu's face turned even more ugly: "What are you doing here? I remember that the envoy has not yet received permission to go out. Aren't you afraid of being blamed by the higher-ups for doing this?"

"That's my business too, what does it have to do with you... Who are you?" Mi Jinyu looked at Hong Wohu with a puzzled look.ωωw..net

Hong Wohu's eyes widened, and he was about to speak, but he saw a flash of light in Mi Jinyu's eyes, and he felt a chill all over his body, as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake.

Liang An, who was still wondering why the expressions of Hong Wohu and the others suddenly changed, suddenly frowned.

He found that a poisonous snake-like artistic conception emerged from Mi Jinyu's body and was acting on Hong Wohu, and he was also implicated a little bit.

That poisonous snake-like artistic conception of inquiry made him feel cold all over, as if there were greasy reptiles swimming around his body. Unconsciously, he also unfolded his own artistic conception of inquiry.

Mi Jinyu's eyes immediately turned to Liang An, her eyes filled with surprise and fear.

Suddenly, he put aside his questioning mood, clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Brother Liang is so capable, I admire him."

Liang An saw that he had taken away the Wenxuan artistic conception, and also removed his own Wenxuan artistic conception, and said lightly: "You are not bad either."

"Isn't it just good? Haha, I've had enough to drink today. Let's take my leave first." Mi Jinyu said with a smile, stood up and left, leaving Liang An stunned for a while.

What did this do?

Liang An raised his eyebrows and looked at Hong Wohu: "Brother Hong, who is he?"

Hong Wohu had not yet recovered from Mi Jinyu's questioning mood. His breath was short and his expression was ugly, but he still answered Liang An's question:

"He is the contestant sent by Chen Guo's Shinto Palace this time. We Yu Guo and Chen Guojin have a civil and military competition every year. Wen is represented by the Hanlin Academy of the two countries, and Wu is represented by our Taihao Palace and their Chen Guo Shinto Palace.

.”

After saying this paragraph, Hong Wohu gradually recovered, but his face was still ugly: "Mi Jinyu provoked more than a dozen fellow apprentices when he came to Taihao Palace with Chen Guo's envoy half a month ago. Fortunately, he won and then let go.

Haikou said that there was no one in Yu State, which made several lecturers want to beat him. Unfortunately, the Chen State envoy said that this is a competition between our younger generation, and the lecturer's action was to bully the big and small, otherwise how could he be so presumptuous!

"

Liang An raised his eyebrows: "Is there no younger generation in Taihao Palace who can defeat him?"

Hearing this question, Hong Wohu's face turned even darker: "Yes, quite a few, but it's a pity that he wasn't there when he came. Afterwards, the senior brothers and sisters went to find him, but he disappeared behind closed doors."

Liang Andeng was a little speechless. Mi Jinyu's approach was really unreasonable, and she was completely cheating.

Wait, he left just now, didn't he think that I would fight with him?
