The capital is at the foot of the emperor, where countless officials, gentry, and students come and go, and businessmen from the richest come and go. There are many people who come several times a year.
As for the brothels and houses, they were divided into three, six or nine grades because of the huge amounts of money these people spent, and all of them made a lot of money.
This is one of the best, not only for its geographical location and good internal environment, but also for the beautiful and versatile girls there, and also for the fact that it has a backstage that can be considered a protective umbrella in the capital.
Baihuafang is such a gold-selling cave. It is located in a prosperous area of the capital, not far from Prince Qi's Mansion. It has three floors facing the street, although it is only three floors. In this capital, because there is an imperial palace, there are various confidential yamen and buildings outside the palace.
, unless it is a franchise, the highest level can only be three levels.
But the three-story Baihuafang occupies a large area. If you enter from the front door and want to walk around inside, it will probably take a while, not to mention that after entering, you may be greeted by thousands of charming people every few steps you take.
The woman's soul was seduced and her feet were blocked.
This type of place is very popular, with many people coming and going, and the true identity is not even traced. It is the most suitable for gathering intelligence, and it is also very suitable for meeting dangerous people in the capital.
Especially when it comes to the demon race, this brothel and Chu pavilion can also block some of them.
"If you are not of my race, your heart must be different!"
At this time, in a room on the third floor that had not allowed outsiders in since Baihuafang opened, King Qi was standing blankly in front of the window, looking at the busy traffic downstairs with a solemn expression.
There was still an aura left in the room from the bad conversation just now, condensing the unhappiness shared by both of them.
"Here comes." Suddenly, King Qi turned around and shouted. A man in Tsing Yi came in from outside the door and bowed his head respectfully: "Your Majesty."
"Go and bring the specially collected stack of books and documents here." King Qi ordered expressionlessly.
The man in Tsing Yi immediately responded and quietly withdrew again.
While waiting, a young girl came in, served King Qi tea respectfully, and then quietly withdrew.
Anyone who likes to spend a lot of money to win the Oiran will recognize that this girl is the rising star of Baihuafang who won the Oiran last year. She is usually cold and affectionate, and is excellent at piano and chess. Although she cannot compare with the real talents and talented women, in the brothel Chuguan
In the circle, he is definitely outstanding.
But in front of King Qi, she was quiet and respectful, just like an ordinary maid.
King Qi just glanced at him, there was no movement, and he drank tea quietly.
Although Qi also likes beauty, since he was a prince since he was a child, and now he is a prince, he has always enjoyed the best, and naturally so do women.
The princess came from a wealthy family, and the concubines also came from a good family. Even the well-known concubines were the daughters of at least seventh-rank officials. He would never give a woman like this a brothel an extra glance.
But externally, he has a reputation of being generous and not rejecting beauties. He is no different from the rich and powerful. He relies on frequent visits to Baihuafang.
Except for a few people who knew that this was the property of King Qi, most people did not know.
Not to mention the secret passage.
The Prince of Qi's Mansion was originally the palace of the previous dynasty and was given as a reward to the King of Qi. It was the King of Qi who found the records and found out the secret passage, so he built Baihuafang at the exit of the secret passage.
"Your Majesty, the things have been brought." After a while, the footsteps came again, and the voice of the man in green who had just left was heard outside the door.
The King of Qi ordered him to come in, and when everything was put on the table, he waved his hand to order him to go down.
"Should we cooperate with it?" King Qi's eyes flashed with annoyance, and he forced himself to sit at the table and flipped through the books and documents that he had read more than once.
After he became an adult and started to have his own power, he ordered people to collect these. Some of them were sent to him by the demon clan to show their sincerity.
He had read it once, but every time it gave him a different feeling.
In order not to affect his already unstable mood, he now tries to rarely touch these things. But today, after seeing the messenger of the demon clan, King Qi's mood became turbulent again. He had to find something to calm himself down.
Check your mood, otherwise, I'm afraid it will be difficult to make a decision.
Some of the relevant books were official histories of previous dynasties, some were unofficial histories, and some were handbooks and diaries written by ancestors that some people kept privately. Now the King of Qi was looking through them quickly.
Because he had read it more than once, he could quickly find some of the content he wanted to read without having to look through it carefully.
"What is the relationship between the Dragon King and Emperor Wei Shizu?" When he turned to the Dragon King part, even though he had seen it more than once, King Qi still couldn't help but think about this idea again.
"There are unofficial legends that the current dragon girl of Panlong Lake Water Mansion is the child of the previous emperor and Dragon Lord. If so, who is a boy and who is a girl? Could it be that Wei Shizu was a woman disguised as a man? No, this is impossible
, that means the Dragon Lord is a female dragon?"
No matter how I think about it, I feel that neither possibility is possible.
King Qi didn't believe anyone.
The dragon girl at the bottom of Panlong Lake is more likely to have no blood relationship with the royal family of the previous dynasty. The rumors that spread like this were probably made by people who were dissatisfied with the previous dynasty at the time.
After all, this kind of erotic news, because the dragon king and dragon girl were considered gods in the previous dynasty, gave the human emperor at that time a layer of mystery.
However, the emperor who is known as the one emperor for eternity may not be happy with the smooth weather and peace that his rule has brought, but he has been labeled as "selling himself to seek treatment."
"However, the most bizarre thing is the prophecy in Qingnang's poem about the concubines of the previous dynasty seizing power." Tapping one of the documents with his fingers, complex emotions flashed in King Qi's eyes.
When I lower my eyes and read this prophecy again, I still can't help but feel that under luck and destiny, even the emperors in the world are just like ants.
"The pomegranates are blooming, the plum trees have roots and buds. There is three feet of snow in the palace, and the concubines will conquer the world." Muttering this prophecy, King Qi thought that even though the previous dynasty had obtained these four sentences, the country was still destroyed in the end.
.
"If you only take this prophecy literally, it will easily go astray."
"During the previous dynasty, many concubines were killed because it was predicted that they would seize power and become emperor. As long as they were intelligent and talented or came from a military background with the support of military power, no matter whether they had children or not, five or six of them died of illness."
"This is someone who has been dying of illness for many years. At least he is wearing a veil of shame. However, the famous Cold Palace Skyfire Case of the previous dynasty almost tore off the mask, and there are still different opinions."
At that time, the two concubines were arguing and each had their own opinions. Because they were both beloved concubines and refused to give in to each other, they finally came to the emperor. As a result, they were both thrown into the cold palace in a rage by the emperor. The purpose was to make them reflect on themselves. Soon after, they
There was a fire that broke out in the middle of the night and could not be put out, burning the cold palace to ashes.
The emperor, who had been interceded by the empress dowager and was ready to agree to release the two concubines, was furious and ordered a thorough investigation. As a result, many concubines including the noble concubine, De Fei, and Lan Concubine were implicated.
These concubines were all condemned to death.
Although the evidence is conclusive and irreproachable, the rumors that these concubines were all killed by the emperor because of the prophecy have never stopped secretly.
Even if a group of people were killed because of this, the rumors still could not be suppressed.
