"This dress is too revealing. I want to change." Mu Xuanyi shook her head. She couldn't cover anything except pulling off her gauze clothes.
"This is how our Yihong Mansion is. Which girl goes to elect the oiran and doesn't wear less clothes, so that the guests can like her."
"If you wear too much, you will appear different from others. What will you do if your identity is revealed by others?"
The madam used righteous words to coax Mu Xuanyi, but this time Mu Xuanyi did not fall for the trick and just shook her head.
"It's precisely because everyone wears so little and I wear the same, it inevitably makes me look tacky."
"Have you ever heard of a word called the beauty of abstinence?" Mu Xuanyi saw the confusion on the Madam's face and hooked her hand.
"You said that everyone who comes to the brothel really likes the women from the brothel to throw themselves into their arms? For men, what they can't get is the best."
"If there was a girl in a brothel who looked like ordinary people in her clothes, but she was sitting on the stage, just like everyone else, waiting to be bid and selected, do you think it would arouse everyone's interest?"
Compared to bluffing, Mu Xuanyi has never lost.
Soon, the madam was doubtful by what she said, so she agreed to her request and gave her a pair of normal clothes for her to wear.
She is naturally extremely beautiful, not to mention the careful dressing and grooming. She can attract everyone's attention just by standing there, not to mention that when she is on stage, the group of men below are all eager for success.
As soon as Mu Xuanyi appeared on the stage, she received cheers from many people, so that among those who made bids, she was chosen the most.
The madam laughed from ear to ear as she listened to the bidding one after another.
How much money do you need to earn? Only a fool will let go of the money tree that comes to your door.
In the end, the highest bidder was the so-called Wang Yuanwai in the town. Wang Yuanwai, who was full of fat and had a greasy smile on his face, paid 500 taels of silver to buy her first night.
"Qiangwei, why don't you go quickly and thank you, Mr. Wang?"
In a town like this, five hundred taels was already a huge amount of money. The old madam grabbed Mu Xuanyi and dragged him to the front of the king.
Mu Xuanyi raised her head, looking even more dignified, with a trace of dissatisfaction on her face: "I was originally a woman from an official family. Even if I live in the world, I shouldn't have to spend my first night in such a dirty building. If Wang Yuanwai is really sincere,
, then take me back to your home."
There was no flattery in her words, and she was reserved and proud. Wang Yuanwai was so fascinated by her appearance that he couldn't help but agreed, and took her back to his home that night.
——
Feng Yunxian had almost recovered from his injuries, and the first thing he did was take people to the lair where he had told him before.
Mu Xuanyi never concealed anything from him. He already knew where Yunzhen's lair was, but he had never taken the time to do so before. Now that the other party was bullying him, he was determined not to let it go.
Yunzhen didn't expect that the other party would come so quickly. He was caught off guard and beaten to a pulp by Feng Yunxian's people, and he himself was nowhere to be seen.
Dong Changqing looked at the miserable situation in front of him and clicked his tongue: "This is your biological brother."
"I am an only child."
Feng Yunxian just said these words and went to the dungeon without changing his expression.
There are still many women imprisoned in the dungeon. After careful checking, Feng Yunxian found no trace of Mu Xuanyi, so he ordered people to release them all. Those who could go home should go home, and those who could not find another place to arrange. In short
They will no longer be locked up.
After arranging all this, he began to follow Mu Xuanyi's traces.
After many rounds of investigation, he finally locked in on a location, which was Yihong Building in the small town.
Especially after knowing that someone had spent a huge amount of money to buy her first night, Feng Yunxian's face was even more ugly, and he wished he could lead someone to destroy this brothel right now.
"She must have been abducted, otherwise why would she come to a place like this or sell herself as an oiran?"
Dong Changqing was always paying attention to his situation and quickly patted his back to comfort him.
"Seal this brothel."
In the end, Feng Yunxian did not go on a killing spree, so he said this and went to Wang Yuan's wife's house with a knife.
Only when he got there did he learn that Wang Yuanwai had accidentally fallen off a cliff a few days ago and had died. As for the others, they had no idea where the woman who was brought back by Wang Yuanwai that night had gone.
"Is it possible that she is still safe now?" Dong Changqing asked cautiously from the side.
Feng Yunxian just glanced at him briefly and then looked away.
The soldiers and horses he brought had no intention of leaving, but simply stayed here. Every time they saw a person, their identity would be verified, and they would dig deep to find the person.
"Brother, even if you really want to check your identity, you should find someone of about the same age! You can check a child who is only a few years old. How can she pretend to be a child?"
This kind of search went from here to the county, and then to the nearby city. Fengyun behaved like a plow, and Dong Changqing almost went crazy following him.
He felt that Feng Yunxian must have gone crazy. He didn't even recover from his own injuries but went out to cause trouble everywhere. It would be strange if he didn't leave any sequelae.
"Our wedding is half a month away, and I will find her." That was the auspicious day that the two of them chose for a long time, and Feng Yunxian would never let this time be changed by anything.
Neither people nor days can change.
Dong Changqing sighed heavily: "Didn't His Majesty also think about you? I was afraid that you would be in a bad mood because you lost the love in your heart, so I gave you a few more girls. It would be better for you to just run away."
Regarding Dong Changqing's words, Fengyunxian didn't raise his head: "If you can't protect even that one, what's the use of having more?"
"Sir, do we need to check this batch of vegetables even if they are shipped into the city?"
The officers and soldiers following him were miserable. They were checking people's identities all day long, and they were already numb.
"Forget about checking people, don't use the vegetables, right?" Dong Changqing thought deeply, feeling that it was very unlucky for these soldiers to be brought here by Feng Yunxian.
"That's all."
Feng Yunxian's eyes fell on the batch of vegetables and he shook his head.
Perhaps he has been too arrogant recently and shouldn't demand so much from other people.
"You guys should rest first and continue the investigation after a while."
He believed that given Mu Xuanyi's feelings for him, if he knew he was looking for him, he would definitely show up.
Unless she was tripped up by something, or...she was deliberately hiding from herself.
Thinking of the days when she was taken away and imprisoned, and when she entered a brothel and became an oiran and was auctioned off... Feng Yunxian couldn't help but feel pain in her heart.
