Chapter 63 Searching for a confidant in the Sanjiang Pavilion
Pingkangfang is a gathering place for Goulan, with both government-backed Jiaofangsi and private brothels.
Various grades are also fully opened for entertainment and entertainment for princes, grandsons, children of nobles, wealthy businessmen, traffickers and footmen.
For example, Zui Xiaoxiang, whom Zhao Xun visited before, is the leader among private brothels in Pingkangfang.
It's just that this time Zhao Xun plans to change his taste.
Although Jiaofangsi offers prostitution for free, the categories are too single and boring. High-end brothels have high-end melodies and the girls there will talk to you about life and ideals as soon as you go there. Platonic love is fruitless.
Even if you eat delicacies from mountains and seas every day, you will eventually get tired of them sooner or later.
This time Zhao Xun went to a little-known ordinary brothel - Sanjiang Pavilion.
The reason why he didn't go to those head hooks was not because Zhao Xun couldn't afford the money, but because he wanted to keep a low profile.
Zhao Xun is now considered a celebrity. Countless courtesans who are popular in brothels want to please Zhao Xun, just to get a poem and a half from Zhao Xun.
But Zhao Xun also knew that poetry should not be spread too widely, otherwise it would be worthless.
Of course, the reason why Zhao Xun chose this seemingly ordinary Sanjiang Pavilion among hundreds of Goulan tile houses was largely because of its name.
As a liberal arts student with an academic background, Zhao Xun has also written Internet articles. Like millions of fellow Internet writers, Zhao Xun has a yearning for the name Sanjiang.
There was a popular saying in the circle at that time: Sanjiang abused me a thousand times, and I treated Sanjiang like my first love.
A proper dog-licking gesture.
Although Zhao Xun was very devout, there were too many monks and too little rice. Zhao Xun tried his best to get the recommendation from Sanjiang, but he never tired of it and jumped around repeatedly on the road to success.
When Zhao Xun saw the name Sanjiang Pavilion again in the Zhou Empire, he felt extremely friendly.
Recalling the experience of writing online articles in his previous life, Zhao Xun felt a little self-deprecating.
It was as if the editor shouted "Authors, the article has been written", and Zhao Xun and the others would rush towards Sanjiang Pavilion like crazy.
Well, it tastes like that.
Just think of it as a tribute to that lost life.
Zhao Xun had a very Buddhist mentality and followed Jia Xingwen and Wangcai into Sanjiang Pavilion.
As soon as he entered Sanjiang Pavilion, Zhao Xun felt that the brothel was very elegantly decorated and the atmosphere was very unusual.
"This bamboo is a plus."
Chang'an is truly in the north, and the north is not suitable for growing bamboo, but Sanjiang Pavilion seems to have maintained the bamboo very well, and there is no sign of yellowing or decay at all.
"Brother Mingyun, you seem to be very satisfied with Sanjiang Pavilion."
The reason for prosperity is a little unclear. In terms of luxury, this Sanjiang Pavilion is not as good as those first-tier brothels or even some second-tier brothels.
But Zhao Xun seems to have a special liking for Sanjiang Pavilion. Why is this?
"You don't understand, whether you go to Sanjiang Pavilion or not, your life is completely different."
Zhao Xun smiled bitterly and shook his head. It was impossible for Wangcai to understand what he meant.
"The water of the three rivers is clear, so I can wash my tassel; the water of the three rivers is turbid, so I can wash my feet."
Zhao Xun chanted casually, attracting the attention of all the scholars.
"The poems recited by this brother are wonderful. The water in the three rivers is clear, and the water in the three rivers is turbid...it makes people think, it makes people think!"
"Of course, clear water and turbid water are all natural laws. However, humans are independent from the outside and should not be affected by clear water and turbid water."
Zhao Xun saw that these scholars were quite enlightened. He nodded slightly and concentrated for a moment and said: "The saint is not stagnant in things, but can move with the world."
After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and climbed up the stairs, leaving several scholars behind muttering what Zhao Xun had just said.
…
…
Sanjiang Pavilion is three stories high.
The first floor is a place for ordinary scholars to drink and have fun. There is only a lobby and no elegant rooms.
The second floor is where girls live their daily lives. If elegant people come, they can have tea and listen to small songs.
As for the third floor... the entire third floor is actually an attic, belonging to only one person, and that is the oiran of Sanjiang Pavilion - Han Miaoyi.
Although Han Huakui is not as good as those top brothels, he is still considered a leader among second-tier brothels such as Sanjiang Pavilion.
Listening to Han Miaoyi playing the piano costs fifty taels of silver, which is a whole year's expense for an ordinary family.
His ability to attract money is far unmatched by other singers in Sanjiang Pavilion.
Of course Zhao Xun is not short of money. Fifty taels of silver is just money for a meal to him.
The key is that after so many meals with Wangcai, it's time for Zhao Xun to show off.
Otherwise, Wang Cai would not think too much about it, and Zhao Xun would definitely feel embarrassed.
As brothers, there is a relationship between people, so having sex for nothing is always not a good idea.
Hearing that Duke Chengguo and his entourage were coming, the old bustard smiled as brightly as a peony in full bloom.
"Hey, young master, what kind of wind has brought you here? If you want to come, don't ask someone to inform you in advance. Let's ask Miaoyi to prepare in advance. Miaoyi slept late yesterday and just woke up.
, it will take some time to freshen up, young master, let’s drink some tea and calm down for a while.”
Zhao Xun was so proud of the spring breeze that he would not care about these things.
"Can."
After uttering a single word, Zhao Xun sat down.
Naturally, the madam took care of him carefully. Tea, water and snacks were all available, but he only had to feed Zhao Xun himself.
After about a moment, the embroidered door of the attic opened slightly, and a maid who looked like a maid came out.
"Young Master, my young lady invites you."
The term "miss" is originally used to address ladies of the family, but in Goulanwashe, the leading courtesans are often called this way.
This is just like a brothel woman calling her madam mother, it is an industry term.
Zhao Xun nodded, and Wang Cai and Jia Xingwen walked into the pavilion one after another.
The women's boudoir is a place that ordinary people can rarely touch, but the women's boudoir in a brothel is different.
Even those innocent hustlers who don't sell their bodies can't turn away customers.
Everything is for survival.
Zhao Xun followed the maid into the pavilion, and saw a flower and bird screen in front of him.
The room is obviously filled with incense, and as soon as you take a good sniff, the aroma pours into your spleen and stomach, making you feel refreshed.
Walking around the screen, Zhao Xun immediately saw a young woman kneeling in front of the piano.
This person was wearing a lake blue skirt, which made the skin on his chest appear slightly plump. But except for the ridge on his chest, his overall figure was long and slender, with slim shoulders and a slim waist, which made him very attractive.
If you look closely, you will see that this woman has a duck-oval face, her cheeks are plump, and her nose is filled with goose fat.
A pair of bright eyes, matched with red lips and white teeth, is an unforgettable sight.
This woman is obviously Han Miaoyi, the leader of Sanjiang Pavilion.
It can be said that Han Miaoyi is not the kind of peerless beauty who would captivate the whole country, but she is very lovable.
She combines the aristocratic temperament cultivated in the Zhou Dynasty with plumpness as a beauty and the delicate, charming and pitiful sentiment of later generations of women. Few people can look away from her after seeing her.
Zhao Xun is no exception.
"I have always heard that Miss Han has superb piano skills. I wonder if I will be lucky enough to listen to a piece of music today."
