"It's not easy! I finally got another chance to win the lottery."
For this one hundred taels of silver, Jia Yun manipulated everyone in the Ningguo Mansion and even beat Jia Zhen violently. It was not easy.
However, now that the promised one hundred taels of silver has been put into his pocket, his heartache has been settled. Now Jia Yun can even walk with a lot of relief.
Seeing this, Jia Qiang quickly said: "Brother Yun, Brother Rong invites us two to listen to music at Jiaofang Si Goulan tonight. Will you go?"
"Go, I must go." Jia Yun was stunned when she heard this, and immediately agreed with joy in her heart.
As the saying goes, "Don't take advantage of the bastard."
Jia Yun is not a moral saint who does not want to eat the beauty of the world. Therefore, she will definitely go to Jiaofangsi for free.
...
Night falls.
There is no doubt that this is the best time to go to Jiaofangsi.
During the day, the girls are sleeping and resting. Only at night can the girls be energetic and recruit the dignitaries who go to the Jiaofang to seek romance.
There are many alleys in the north and south of Dongsi Archway in Shenjing. It was a red light district in the Yuan and Ming Dynasties.
But it's no ordinary brothel.
"The capital advocated that the East Courtyard should be affiliated with the East Courtyard, and the West Courtyard should be affiliated with the Jiaofang School. This is still the legacy of the Yichun Courtyard in the Tang Dynasty. The East Courtyard uses the harp, and the West Courtyard uses the pipa, borrowing the honorary relatives to avoid the disturbance of nobles traveling."
It can be seen that this is an official brothel affiliated to the Jiaofang Division. The prostitutes are skilled in music and skills, and most of them serve the powerful and royal relatives. This can avoid the intrusion of ordinary brothels.
These prostitutes are proficient in music, can play the harp, pipa, etc., and are good at singing and dancing. This is different from ordinary prostitutes.
Jiaofangsi is an official brothel, subordinate to the Jiaofangsi of the Ministry of Rites.
Leji is an official brothel, affiliated to the Jiaofang Department of the Ministry of Etiquette. Except for recruiting some women, most of them are businesses that cost nothing and make huge profits.
For example, if an official in the imperial court commits a crime of corruption, he or she may use it to make some compensation. Political prisoners like Yongle deal with political opponents, and they try to make the political opponents as embarrassed as possible.
There are also those who are sent to the Jiaofang Bureau, including the wives and daughters of the defeated during the war, or the women of the people who were kidnapped during the war. This also costs no money.
Now that the world is peaceful, there are naturally few wives and daughters of defeated captives. Most of the romantic women in Jiaofangsi today are the wives, daughters and children of some criminal officials.
Even an old woman in her fifties or sixties would not be sent to the Jiaofang Department just because she was too old.
However, this type of old woman has long since aged and is no longer able to serve others with her beauty. She can only do some simple jobs, such as washing clothes, and teaching young people who have entered the Jiaofang Department.
young woman.
Generally, the women who come out to receive guests in Jiaofangsi are mostly well-educated and versatile women. In terms of class and taste, they are undoubtedly more beautiful and charming than ordinary women from brothels.
Of course, this kind of place is also a gold-selling cave, so don’t come in if you don’t have money.
Even with a status like Jia Rong's, she can't come here often for entertainment when her money is tight.
It's just that today Jia Rong unconscionably squandered a thousand taels of silver belonging to Jia Qiang's independent family. Therefore, he was generous and planned to treat Fengliu to Jiaofang. Otherwise, he would not be willing to spend so much money and take it with him.
Jia Yun and Jia Qiang went to this place to have fun.
People from wealthy families naturally know the wonderful uses and benefits of silver, and they also know that silver is rare.
Especially now that the Ningguo Mansion is sitting on nothing and has no money coming in, the money in the treasury can no longer withstand the lavish and wasteful use of these people. The importance of money needs to be counted on every penny. Laihua is far less luxurious than it was back then.
At the gate of Ningguo Mansion, Jia Qiang, Jia Yun and Jia Rong discussed setting out together to the Jiaofang Division located in the West Academy of Shenjing.
The women here are especially good at playing the pipa.
The winding path leads to a secluded place, with its own romantic and charming sound, which is touching.
When we arrived at Jiaofangsi, we saw two red lanterns that had been hung high.
The red lanterns here will burn all night and will not be taken down until dawn the next day.
The door is guarded by a servant, unlike other brothels where prostitutes stand outside to solicit passing customers.
After entering the gate, what you see and hear is more elegant.
"The big strings are as noisy as the rain, and the small strings are as loud as whispers.
Noisy and jumbled bullets, big and small beads falling onto the jade plate.
The orioles in Guan Guan are talking about the slippery bottom of the flowers, and it is difficult to go under the ice of the Youyan Spring.
..."
The extravagant sound of the pipa, accompanied by the singing of the singer, makes me feel more elegant.
The people who could come to this place for recreation were all high-ranking officials and dandy boys. Most of them were hawks and dogfighters. Under the teasing of these romantic women, the smell of alcohol was rising, and a lot of money seemed to fall from the sky. The raindrops were pouring out, and money was poured out desperately.
When the fight gets more intense, the fight becomes red-faced, and the fights between rich and handsome men are even better than other places.
But Jia Rong and two others did not pay attention to these people. Instead, they each ordered someone to choose a woman to accompany them and went to the private room. Seeing that it was still early, they were not in a hurry to do anything.
Besides, the three of them are not impatient people, and there are not many opportunities to come to this place for recreation. If they can watch and listen for a while longer, they will all be earned.
Jia Yun sat upstairs, watching people coming in from time to time. There were also people on the stairs upstairs, supported by beautiful women, gradually walking upstairs, opening a private room, and going to have fun.
People who can come to this place for recreation cannot be considered saints, and they cannot even live a peaceful life.
As long as there is a slight chance, you will take advantage.
Seeking pleasure and having fun is nothing more than this.
Jia Yun was sitting and sipping tea when she saw several beautiful women with slim waists. They opened the curtain from the outside and walked in gracefully.
After the three women came to the side of everyone, they were as soft as boneless, clinging to the three people. They had a pair of autumn-like eyes with a hint of charm, stretched out their jade hands, and fair skin. , the orchid body fragrance makes people feel swaying and unable to control themselves.
"Uncle, come here, let me feed you a drink."
The delicate, soft and charming voice made Jia Yun's mind slightly shaken, but she also drank fine wine, listened to the sound of the pipa, and enjoyed this rare life.
I thought to myself, "These are the days of the gods!"
.....
The next morning.
Jia Yun and others went home respectively.
After last night's affair, we are now considered brothers in the same trench, and our relationship is a bit closer.
Jia Yun recalled the wonderful things yesterday, felt happy, and decided to have a lottery.
"lottery."
As the krypton gold roulette started, one character after another passed before the eyes, and finally stopped, becoming an unopened card.
