On the most prosperous long street in Beijing, two plainly dressed men wore hats and looked like quacks.
At the feet of the emperor, this dress is more eye-catching than a satin dress. Pedestrians could not help but look at them more, but saw the two of them turning around in the same place, not knowing what they were looking for.
"Uncle, please ask for directions."
The shorter one grabbed a passerby casually with a weird low voice, "Where is the hometown? Isn't it on the busiest street in Beijing?"
The uncle passerby took a look at the person in front of him. "He" was wearing a heavy hat, which made people really hard to see, but his hands were very tender.
The uncle could not help contemptuously.
With such tender hands, the martial arts are not so good at first sight. As soon as he ran to the capital, he wanted to go back and forth to the township. It was obvious that he was not a serious person!
His tone was frivolous, and he slowly said, "Zhuxiang is the most famous brothel in Beijing. Can it be put on the main road for you to see? No matter how famous it is, it is just a brothel!"
Yaolan's scalp tightened, and he thought that this uncle was still showing up, and hurriedly took out a piece of silver from his sleeve to give him, "Uncle trouble me, we still have important things to do."
Important matter
Be anxious!
The uncle's eyes flicked over the silent man again, and the silver in his hand was unbelievable. These two people from the rivers and lakes were quite generous in their shots.
The contemptuous expression on his face suddenly turned into a smile, "It's simple, do you see that alley? It's inside."
He pointed his hand. It turned out that the so-called commuting to the hometown was indeed on the busiest street in Beijing, but naturally it was not on the bright side, but in the alley.
Yaolan thanked the uncle, took Yufu towards the alley, and said as he walked: "Your Majesty, do we need this dress when we go in later? Wouldn't it be too strange?"
Yufu was helpless, and the voice came from under the hat, with a deliberately low voice, "What can be done? If you show your face, do you look like a man or I look like a man?"
The folk customs of Beili are open, and it is not uncommon for women to swagger through the city, but places like the township must be regarded as an outlier.
In order to hide their faces, they can only pretend to be people from the rivers and lakes.
Seeing Yaolan's worried face, Yufu leaned into her ear and said something like this, and Yaolan immediately rejoiced.
The place in front of you is like a cloud of visitors, even more lively than Yushan Building.
Not yet approaching, they smelled a strong powdery scent, and the voices of the women standing outside the door were so soft that they were tingling.
Yufu and the other two had not yet approached, and the sharp-eyed woman saw the bulging purse on their waist and twisted her body to greet her.
Before getting close, Yao Lan quickly stretched out a hand, with a large hard spindle above it.
"Find us a private room to drink and talk, and you didn't tell you not to come over."
Her voice was very low, and the woman in front of her was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously took the silver in her hand, but her mind hadn't turned around yet.
How can anyone come to the brothel not to find a girl, but to talk for drinking
Why not go to a restaurant if you want to drink and talk
Coming to the township is the most famous brothel in Beijing. Even the girl standing at the door welcoming guests has some knowledge. Seeing that they are both dressed up, they stopped asking more, thinking that they might have something secret to discuss.
They have seen a lot of important officials from the DPRK who came to and fro to the village to cover their eyes and talk about things they didn't know.
"Okay, two guest officials come with me, please go upstairs!"
The woman who had collected the money escorted them in with a smiley face. When she was talking, she touched Yaolan's hand by the way, and suddenly withdrew her hand like an electric shock.
This man's hands are thinner and slippery than hers!
She felt weird for a while, Yaolan felt even more uncomfortable than her, and she couldn't help getting goose bumps on her back after being rubbed by a woman.
Looking at the wiping girl's gaze again, Yaolan was afraid of revealing her stuffing. Suddenly, a hand was stretched out in the oblique stabbing, holding a piece of silver larger than before, "Girl, take the silver and collect it. Tossing the silver is fine, and tossing the life is fine."
Yufu's voice came from under the hat, and it was pressed very low in order to be more like a man's voice. It was terrifying in the woman's ears, with a strong threat of threat.
The woman nodded hurriedly, led them to a private room on the second floor and retreated.
Yaolan stepped forward and fixed the door fork of the private room, turned around and nodded to Yufu. Only then did Yufu relax and take off the hat, sighing with relief.
"Although this hat can cover your face, it can affect your breathing."
"Who said no?"
Yaolan also took off the hat and gasped for breath, "It's too scary. If people here find out that we are two women, that would be terrible!"
"I'm not worried about this."
Yufu looked out through the window on the other side of the private room, "I'm only worried about being discovered. The dignified lady of Beili ran to the brothel. That is the story of being laughed at for several lifetimes."
Haven't been discovered yet, Yaolan burst into laughter on her own, "Yeah, yeah, is this too funny?! Hahaha!"
Yu Fubai glanced at her and suddenly noticed an abnormal movement outside the window.
"Strange, the private room opposite was just what I saw for a while. Seven or eight people have entered, all of them young men. Isn't it too crowded in a room with so many people?"
Yaolan also looked up and saw that there were more than seven or eight people in the private room opposite, it seemed that there were at least a dozen people.
She suddenly thought of something bad. "Could it be that some people have such special tastes and like a dozen people together..."
Yufu raised her eyebrows and looked back at her, "Yaolan, you have broken your studies."
This was clearly what Gu Shubai said about her at the beginning, and she used it as Yaolan again, and Yaolan looked aggrieved.
Who is Zhu, who is Mo, and who is closest to her
Yu Fu had no time to think about it, so he just stared at the other side, "Go, let's go over and see what the hell is doing over there."
She vaguely saw familiar faces from the young princes who had just entered, and she couldn't remember where she had seen them, let alone who they were.
If they want to find Gu Shubai, they can't stay here all the time, it's better to go to the other side to try their luck.
Yaolan hurriedly put on the hat, her entire face covered under the black gauze of the hat, "Will we two go over like this, will it be eye-catching?"
Jade helped his chest, "What's the use of the people outside watching? The people in the room can't see us."
makes sense.
The two slid out of the private room to face the other side while the outsiders were not paying attention. Suddenly, Yufu heard Yaolan yell.
It turned out that she was walking behind Yufu, did not adjust the shape of the hat, and temporarily covered her eyes without seeing the way, and hit a man.
"How do you walk?"
The man seemed to have drunk a lot of alcohol. He looked up and saw that Yaolan was not tall and dressed in rugged linen. He suddenly cursed unceremoniously.
It was a trivial matter, but Yaolan exclaimed and forgot to cover up her original voice.
Yufu secretly said in his heart that it was not good, and indeed someone who watched the excitement said: "This seems to be a girl, and her voice was very small when she screamed. How do you dress up as a man?"
When the drunk heard this, he became interested and stared suspiciously at Yaolan. Yaolan remembered the silver strategy Yufu had said, and hurriedly took out a piece of silver from his sleeve and handed it to the drunk-
Money can make ghosts grind, as long as you have money, many things can be settled without opening your mouth.
It's a pity that the drunk is not a brothel girl, and the people who come here to amuse themselves are not short of talent, not to mention that his curiosity has been aroused, and now he wants to know whether the person in front of him is a man or a woman.
Yao Lan was unprepared for a while, and the hat was lifted by the drunk. The hat that hadn't been worn before was lifted and flew away, and Yao Lan was so scared that he covered her face.
However, it was too late, and everyone could see her woman's face clearly.
The drunk man stepped forward with a smile, and Yufu raised his hand to stop him, "This is the lady who is down. The daughters of Jianghu are not strict. I want to come to the most famous town in Beijing to go and take a look. I also ask this adult not to care about her. ."
Just now, Yufu hadn't spoken, because he felt that the man in front of him was very familiar, and when he looked closely, he discovered that this was a low-level official of the Hanlin Academy.
Although his position is low, the Hanlin Academy is an institution that can often be in the imperial front, so Yufu recognizes his appearance.
When she said that, the drunk stood straight up and straightened his collar. "If you have a vision, you can recognize the official as a court official. As she is a woman, the official doesn't care about her anymore."
Yaolan breathed a sigh of relief and walked to Yufu to wait to leave. Suddenly, the drunkard said again: "This official is only a caregiver with you as a husband. You said, how should your wife be compensated for hitting the official?"
An imperial court official, drank too much wine and made no mistakes, Yufu was also regarded as an eye-opener.
Looking at the people around him, most of them were on the side of the drunkard, but it was because I heard that he was a court official, so I didn't dare to offend him.
It is commonplace in the world to respect Luoyi first and then respect others. Since Yu Fuda was born, Jin Zun Yugui has been held in the palm of his hand. This is the first time I have experienced this feeling.
She didn't get annoyed and smiled, "How much compensation do you want?"
The drunk put up a thick finger, and Yufu smiled and said, "One thousand taels?"
There was a sound of air-conditioning around, and most of the drunk's wine was scared by her to wake up.
He just wanted to say one hundred taels, but he didn't expect that this quack man in front of him was so generous, and his mouth was only one thousand taels!
Isn't it the person in charge of some big gang
The drunk rubbed his eyes and confirmed that the clothes she was wearing were all ordinary fabrics, and quickly said, "Why don't you blame me? Can you have a thousand taels of silver?"
Seeing more and more spectators gathered around because of the "one thousand taels", Yufu suddenly remembered the serious things that came here today, and did not want to entangle the drunkard.
She leaned in front of the drunk, opened a corner of the hat, and said with her own voice: "Master Li, come to the Imperial Study Room tomorrow morning, I will give you the one thousand taels of silver."
Lord Li suddenly sat down on the ground, looking at Yufu with a look of horror, who had already rearranged the hat.
Although it was just a glimpse, he was absolutely right, the man in front of him was your majesty!
No wonder she knows who she is!
"You... Minister..."
Master Li said that he was busy to kneel down and salute, Yu took a step forward, with an imposing manner, "Well, I will give you a thousand taels and never break your promise. I will send someone to your house tomorrow. Go!"
Naturally, Lord Li did not dare to expect this thousand taels, but it was thought that Yu Fuyi would pretend to come back and forth to the hometown. There must be something important to do without revealing his identity. He would die very ugly if he exposes her identity.
Thinking of this, he bowed his hands and hurried downstairs.
Some guests familiar with him laughed loudly, "Master Li has always been so timid and fearful, thinking that these two people from the Jianghu people are not ordinary backers, and they scared him like this. If I want to say no matter how powerful they are, they are also in white clothes. What's so terrible. Look at him and the mouse and see the cat, as if the minister met his majesty!"
Those words made the people present laugh, and Yaolan almost couldn't help laughing. The protagonist who took into account the joke was right in front of him, so she could barely hold it back.
Yufu didn't speak for a while, and continued to walk forward, and suddenly turned to Yaolan and said: "What do you mean by a mouse meeting a cat, and a minister meeting your majesty, I'm very scary?"
Yaolan shook her head hurriedly, "It's not scary, it means that your Majesty is a deterrent. Your Majesty is beautiful and benevolent. He treats Taifu Bao's family in every way, and is so good to the maids who serve by his side. He also does his best to subordinate generals like Yan Zheng. Grace... How can it be scary?"
Yufu was better after hearing these words, and waved to her, and the two of them went smoothly outside the private room they were paying attention to.
There was a vague voice from inside.
"Your Majesty is very concerned about the affairs of the Ministry of Households. Except for Xue Bi who accepts bribes and corruption, he will be severely punished. Those who buy official posts through Xue Bi and the officials will not be condoned."
The man's voice was a little strange, Yufu couldn't tell who it was.
The head suddenly became silent in the room, there was a faint tapping of wine glasses, and the rubbing of the cloth, it seemed that everyone was waiting for something awkwardly.
It took a while for someone to break the silence, "But for those of us who were jinshi last year, they have served in the DPRK for less than a year, and the positions they hold do not matter. Of course, except for Gu Hanmo, the commander of Gu, and Liming Li, the deputy commander of the military. In addition to the talents who perform important positions, our literary works are only a four-rank!"
The fourth-ranked scholar is the No. 1 in literary studies, and now he has been practicing in the Imperial Academy and is a talent that Yufu values very much.
As soon as this statement came out, everyone agreed.
"Yeah, even if some of us spend money to make some tricks, but it is a seventh-rank change to a sixth-rank, won't your Majesty let this little thing go?"
"Yeah, let me be honest with you, I don't believe anyone with a little money did not participate in this event! Everyone is young, who is willing to stay in that low-minded position?"
Yufu listened to the conversation inside and snorted with anger, "I heard no, this group of people who are so happy with their achievements. I have just entered the official position at a young age, and I just want to step up to the sky. How can it be so easy?"
Such people do have them, but they need to show extraordinary talents, so they may suffer suspicion and suspicion.
For example, Gu Shubai.
Yaolan suddenly thought of Gu Shubai, and said softly, "Your Majesty, there doesn't seem to be the voice of the eldest son here, shall we continue to listen?"
"Naturally listen."
These people are discussing what she is most concerned about at the moment. Gu Shubai and they ran back and forth to the hometown. They must have something to do with this matter, so she naturally wanted to listen.
Then, there was a burst of ambiguous laughter, which was quite tacit.
People who can come and go to the hometown for recreation, naturally have some money in their homes. Who knows that Xue Bi is willing to lag behind
I'm afraid that most of these people in the house are involved.
At this time, the voice heard at the beginning said: "This is the truth, but your Majesty will be liquidated next. The problem is not as simple as we thought. Let me tell you the truth. In fact, I have already voluntarily surrendered and admitted to Xue Bi. Bribery."
"what?!"
There was a rustling noise in the room, and someone said angrily: "I thought everyone was pitying each other to find a way. So you are here to play our words? You want us to surrender to you, don't you?"
"Calm down, everyone. If I really have this heart, how can I come single-handedly? I have already asked the Dali Temple sent an officer to catch everyone with me."
The excitement in the voice eased a little, and the man continued: "I have kindly come to share with you my solution to this matter. I can surrender and confess and be lenient, and so can you naturally."
When everyone heard this, they were all eager to move, "Didn't you still say that your majesty will be severely punished? Why do you now say that you can be frank and lenient?"
The humanity said: "It depends on the severity of the plot. I listened to the commander Gu. I had some friendship with him when I took the imperial examination last year. He said that your Majesty will severely punish those who have serious plots and actively bribes, but the plot is lighter and threatened. If you are lured, you can take it lightly. Think about it, if everyone is sent off, the new power of the court will be reduced by half? Your Majesty will not make this kind of loss-making business."
When everyone heard this, they became excited, "I! I am! The people under Xue Bi's hands came to me on the initiative. If they don't give me money, I will say that I won't give Xue Shang a letter. I'm also helpless!"
"Me too! I only gave ten thousand taels of silver, and he didn't have to transfer me to an official position. This was purely for not wanting to cause trouble to respect him. I should be treated lightly like this?"
Yufu listened outside the window, and couldn't help but snorted softly, thinking about something lightly—
She never said it.
