Chapter 135 Broth
Chapter 1,35 Brothel
Emperor Jingtai’s encouragement is better than anything else. For Ding Zicai, his current life has suddenly become brighter. Moreover, the emperor actually came here in person, and he could see how much he attached it to this matter!
Of course, I suddenly had the courage in my heart. No matter what difficulties I encountered, I must complete this task this time!
When Jiang Lang and Emperor Jingtai came out of the palace, it was already dark. Looking at the night view around him, Emperor Jingtai suddenly didn’t want to go back!
Jiang Lang asked at this time: "Your Majesty, are you going back to the palace now?"
"Don't go back to the palace first, well, accompany me around, go back and change this official uniform first, it looks so conspicuous!"
Emperor Jingtai said, patting the folding fan in his hand gently, and he had no intention of going back. It was rare to come out once, so he naturally had to stay outside for a while!
Seeing that Emperor Jingtai was so interested, Jiang Lang nodded immediately, so he asked the carriage to carry him and Emperor Jingtai back to his home first, put on a set of clothes, then went out, and asked, "Emperor, then where are we going now?"'
Emperor Jingtai pondered for a moment before saying, "Why go there last time!"
“Where did last time?”
Jiang Lang pondered for a moment, and suddenly remembered the time he met Emperor Jingtai in the brothel. Did he say he planned to go to the brothel? After pondering for a while, he asked: "Master, do you say you want to go there?"
Emperor Jingtai lowered his voice and said, "Shh, whisper, don't call me the emperor now, call me young master, I, oh... no, I rarely come out for a while, and I will go around and relax!"
When Jiang Lang saw that it was absolutely impossible for the emperor to go back so easily today. Forget it, let’s go with him!
Then nodded and said, "Then, young master, let's go!"
Of course, I didn't forget to bring some money on it. It was too embarrassing that the emperor of the court and the manager of the East Factory went to the brothel without money on it.
The two of them came to the brothel that was originally. It was indeed a big brothel. When night came, it became the most lively place in the capital. Now, with no night entertainment, this brothel is not a good choice for rich people. Hehe, flower wine, listen to the song, it is a day of being a god. Of course, the prerequisite is to have money, no money, even if heaven has nothing to do with you!
"Two young men, please, please, I wonder if there are any familiar girls?"
The turtle man who was greeting at the door quickly asked with a smile!
"No, pick two good-looking guys. I don't lack that little money!"
Emperor Jingtai said this, and then looked inside, looking excited!
When Jiang Lang saw this, Emperor Jingtai became a regular customer here. He only met him once. He didn't know how many times he hadn't met him. However, it was not a good thing that the emperor liked to visit brothels, especially when an emperor of the Qing Dynasty went to brothels and died of syphilis. This matter should not happen to Emperor Jingtai!
But in a blink of an eye, Jingtai Emperor has not been long since this time, and it doesn’t matter whether he is infected or not!
Emperor Jingtai didn't know what Jiang Lang was thinking, so he walked in casually, and shouted loudly at this time: "Young master, the girls are picking up customers!"
With this shout, several girls immediately surrounded him and said in a sweet voice: "Young Master, your son!"
Emperor Jingtai is also handsome, and he is walking in front, so the three girls all put it on, hoping to rub themselves into it, and said in unison: "Young Master, choose my family!"
"Let me serve the young master!"
...
Emperor Jingtai laughed, hugged and said, "Everyone comes, everyone comes!"
What place was Jingtaidi at this time? He was like an old client!
Jiang Lang understood at a glance that this happened. Although the emperor had the so-called 3,000 beauties in the palace, those who could enter the palace had to choose the daughters first. At the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang stipulated: "All the princes, concubines, concubines, concubines, concubines, concubines, and concubines, should be carefully selected as good girls, and those who advance would not accept them. Therefore, concubines and empresses were often collected by the people." Later, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered officials in Zhejiang, Jiangxi and other places: "People women are over thirteen years old, under thirty years old, women over thirty years old, and under 40 years old without husbands, are willing to enter the palace to prepare envoys, and each gives money to the Taoist expenses and send them to the capital, and women are used to prepare six palaces, while women are charged with six palaces." Liushang is an ancient official title, with the official signature, responsible for the control of emperors' affairs. During the Ming Dynasty, all the Ming Dynasty ordered the elected women to enter the palace.
Those who can enter the palace are either ladies or jasses in the small family. Those who can be given the emperor as their wives are all famous families. They have been trapped by all kinds of rules and regulations since childhood. They are all just like rules. Even if they are sleeping with the emperor, they are pretty and dare not cheat at all. After all, there are people outside every time. Once there is something wrong, there will be no chance next time. So although there are 3,000 beauties in the harem, and although they are all as beautiful as immortals, when they come on this bed, there is no difference between this immortal and a dead person. Emperor Jingtai is also a man. If this continues, what else will there be interest there!
But the women in this brothel are different. In addition to the commissions every day, their income is largely due to the rewards from customers. Only when the customer is satisfied will there be more rewards, and they will continue to look for themselves next time. Although it is also for life, they are relaxed and very bold in this regard. Moreover, they have countless people and know how to please men. To please men, it is not just to please them in bed. Even drinking and drinking is a means of flirting. They have a deep understanding of men. They are both bold, but they maintain a certain degree of reserve. The kind that wants to eat but is not easy to eat easily for a man is the most exciting thing!
But the palace is different. No matter when the emperor goes to the concubine's palace, he faces the same kind of rules and rules. He has no way of experiencing such stimulation as a brothel woman. For the current Emperor Jingtai, the brothel is simply a fish, and he is a cat. There are cats that do not steal fish. The same is true for Emperor Jingtai. After tasted the first stimulation, he wanted to be the second and third time. However, he is the emperor, so he dare not come out openly. Moreover, since ancient times, it is not so easy for the emperor to leave the palace, so it is rare to come out once, and it is like a hungry cat seeing a fish!
Seeing Emperor Jingtai like this, Jiang Lang couldn't help but sigh in his heart, turned his head and said to Gui, "Arranging a private room!"
Of course it is impossible to sit in this hall. Who knows if those ministers will come to visit this brothel this night?
Although this faint sentence was said, there was a majesty in Jiang Lang's words that could not be violated. The Turtle nodded quickly and led the way in front!
"Let me serve the young master!"
A female voice came timidly, unlike the young master who seemed very frivolous in front of her. The young master in front of her felt an invisible feeling on her body, as if there was an invisible wall passing through him, and the momentum on her body made people feel a little chill and dared not approach her.
This person has seen many times, and the woman knows that the person in front of her is a big man, so she seems a little timid when she speaks, for fear of annoying him!
Jiang Lang turned his head and saw that 7 should be one of the women who came here together just now. He shook his head and said, "No need!"
It’s not that Jiang Lang is not close to women, but that he is a little disgusted from the bottom of his heart.
A look of disappointment appeared on the woman's face. Jiang Lang felt a little moved, and took out a ingot of silver and said, "You go and arrange someone to prepare some wine and food for us. This is a reward!"
Even in the brothel, the money was given because others did things and were well served, which was a tip. If they didn't do any money, it would be a bit like giving. So this woman was asked to prepare some wine and food. After all, the two of them were still empty now. Of course, this was just Jiang Lang's idea. As long as he thought he was doing it right, it was the matter of others!
The woman took the money and nodded, "Yes!" After that, she hurriedly went to ask someone to prepare the wine and food, and the money for the wine and food was calculated separately.
Jiang Lang followed Emperor Jingtai toward the building. Compared to Emperor Jingtai who was hugging him left and right in front, Jiang Lang seemed a little lonely!
But all this was seen by people, that was Ruxue. As the red card of this brothel, the one who could pick up customers was naturally very picky, but sometimes when he came out, he was just saying hello. When he came out with the madam, he saw Jiang Lang walking upstairs. At first, he thought he had read it wrong, but after looking carefully, he couldn't help but laugh: "It's him! He actually came!"
"He? Is that young man from that family here?"
The madam couldn't help but ask strangely, and then looked at her eyes, but she didn't seem to see anyone. She couldn't help but say, "Daughter, who is here? Look at your happiness!"
Ruxue's face surging a hint of blush and she muttered: "I really didn't expect that he was coming!"
After saying that, he turned his head and said, "Mom, I will also go on stage to perform songs later!"
The madam couldn't help but say strangely: "What's wrong with you? Didn't you go on stage today? I just asked you not to go, why are you... now...?"
"Okay, okay, stop asking, I'm grateful for your kindness in raising you, so I figured it out, that's OK!"
Ruxue said quickly, walking inside, she had to dress up well.
"What a gratitude, I think it's a rippling heart!"
The madam muttered for a moment, looked up and saw a regular customer, and smiled and said, "Master Huang, you are here again, this Dongmei is waiting for you!"
Jiang Lang didn't know that he had been seen by an acquaintance. After coming to the room, he sat opposite Emperor Jingtai. Soon, the wine and food were served. The three girls would just take one chopstick, and I fed Emperor Jingtai with a glass of wine. Emperor Jingtai was not polite, hugging him left and right, and he didn't have to hold the chopsticks by himself. Of course, his hand was not idle. He was somewhat disqualified from an emperor in front of a minister, but now he would think so much, just drink well and enjoy the blessings of all people!
Jiang Lang didn't ask anyone to pour wine, so he poured it himself and didn't envy the good things on the other side.
"Wang Aiqing, isn't drinking alone too boring? How about finding a girl to accompany you?"
Emperor Jingtai said with a big tongue, after drinking a few cups of yellow soup, I forgot everything, and I still think it is normal!
"Wang Aiqing, this young master's name is really strange!"
One of the girls smiled and said, of course they would not think that the emperor called his minister when he called him a minister, but the young master who looked a little arrogant in front of him was named Wang, and his name was Aiqing! It sounded strange that this name really sounded!
Emperor Jingtai also reported it at this time. Then he realized that he had almost made a mistake without realizing it. However, the woman said this and laughed and said, "Yes, his name is Wang Aiqing. I thought this name was strange at the beginning, hahahaha!"
Such a mistake was over, and Jiang Lang just laughed it off!
At this time, the originally noisy bottom suddenly became very quiet. Jiang Lang couldn't help but wonder, and pushed open the window, and then he found that the room he was staying at was the best location of the brothel, and opposite was the stand of the brothel. Ruxue, dressed in pink clothes, was sitting there, singing: "The river goes east, the waves wash away, and the eternal heroes. To the west of the old building, the humanity is the red cliff of Zhou Lang of the Three Kingdoms. The rocks penetrate the sky, the waves slam the shore, and thousands of snow are rolled up. The country is like a painting, and there are so many heroes at the moment. I remember Gongjin that year, Xiao Qiao was first married, and his heroic hair was born. The feather fan and the scarpment were gone. The mast and oars were destroyed in the smoke. The homeland was wandering, and the passion should laugh at me, and I had a bright hair long ago. Life is like a dream, and a bottle will be poured on the moon in the river."
The last time she sang the same lyrics by Su Dongpo, but the thoughts in the lyrics "When will the bright moon come?" were sung to the fullest, but now she sang "Nian Nujiao, Chibi Nostalgia". A bold and unrestrained lyrics were sung from a woman's mouth, but there was a trace of woman's weakness in this boldness, which made people feel pity!
While singing, Ruxue couldn't help but look at Jiang Lang's location. Seeing that the adult was looking at her, she was suddenly filled with joy. It was sweeter than eating honey. However, this was just her own feeling. She also knew very well that even if it was possible, she had no chance of that adult. The three beautiful wives in other people's family were all princesses, and at the same time, they were of high status and power. How could they look down on brothel women like her!
Thinking of this, she was somewhat sad. After the song ended, she sang in a low voice: "Red and crisp hands, yellow wine, the spring scenery of the city willows. The east wind is evil, the joy is thin, and the sorrow is a few years of separation. Wrong, wrong, wrong! Spring is as thin as the past, people are thin, and the tears are red and the silk is shining through. Peach blossoms fall, the idle pond and pavilion, and although the mountains are still there, brocade books are hard to read. Don't, don't, don't!"
After singing, she did not stop, but continued to sing: "The world is weak, but human feelings are evil. The rain sends the dusk and the flowers are easy to fall. The morning breeze is dry, and the tears are broken. If you want to write down your thoughts, you can talk to the sideways. It is difficult, difficult, difficult! People have become different, but today is not yesterday. The sick soul is always like a swing cable. The horns are cold, and the night is late. I am afraid that people will ask, so I swallow my tears and pretend to be happy. Conceal it, conceal it, conceal it!'
No one is unfamiliar with these two poems. The first one is Lu You's "Chaitoufeng", and the second one is from his cousin Tang Wan. Lu You originally married his cousin Tang Wan as his wife. The two have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, with deep affection. After they got married, the couple was very loving. However, Lu You's mother did not like Tang Wan, so the two were forced to separate. Later, Lu You married another Wang family, and Tang Wan also remarried Zhao Shicheng of the same county. Ten years later, the 25th year of Shaoxing (1115) ) In spring, Lu You, who was thirty-one, went to Shenyuan in the southeast of Shanyin City to visit and met Tang Wan by chance. Out of politeness, Tang Wan treated each other diligently with yellow wine and food. Lu You was mixed with emotion and said, "I felt sad for a long time" and wrote this poem on the wall of Shenyuan. After Tang Wan saw it, she also wrote it. Soon, Tang Wan died of sorrow. Forty years later, Lu You was in his seventies and still missed Tang Wan, and revisited Shenyuan, and wrote two poems "Shenyuan".
And Ruxue also responded to this word and couldn't help but sigh for herself!
It was originally a very sad poem. If you were to sing like this, the entire brothel was suddenly shrouded in such a sad atmosphere!
"It's like snow, how can you sing this 1 in a great day"
The madam couldn't help but complain, what should this brothel sing be happy? What kind of lyrics should be sung? How can people sing such things that people want to cry after hearing it? This customer comes to the brothel to seek happiness, and that is not to come to seek crying. Wouldn't this push the customer out of the door?
After singing, Ruxue immediately got off the stage with her qin in her arms, and after a while, someone shouted loudly: "Okay!"
Then, the shouts were filled with all kinds of shouts!
They didn't know what Ruxue was feeling now. Perhaps this cheering should make a smile for them, but they didn't know that their cheering was just like mocking him for Ruxue, which made Ruxue, who had already gone down, feel like he was hard to find a soulmate!
The madam couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief at this time!
But at this moment, suddenly a panic came from the door, and a group of people rushed in, and then someone shouted loudly: "Miss Ruxue is there, my master is here!"
But this tone has no intention of asking for help, it is like a group of evil thieves!
The guests at the door avoided each other, but seeing these people being fierce, they could only dare to be angry but not speak out at the moment!
The madam was also a person who had seen the world. She smiled and greeted her and said with a smile: "Several guests, why are you so angry? Girls, arrange a seat for the masters and serve wine and food!"
Chapter completed!
