Li Yihai immediately understood that this person was the madam of this brothel. He also understood the reason why the madam was not very afraid: anyone who could open a high-quality brothel in the capital had the support of a big shot.
Li Yihai suddenly felt a surge of anger in his heart: 'We fought desperately for the Ming Dynasty, and we didn't have much pay all year round; you are just staying in the capital in peace, and you are so well-dressed and well-fed!'
Li Yihai said loudly: "In response to the order of Mr. Yin of Tianfu, no one can stop the illegal activities of brothels and establishments!" As he spoke, he walked up again.
Seeing that they were so resolute, the madam probably had a strict order from above, so she didn't dare to go against it, but she said with a hidden smile: "If you want to check whether there are any hidden criminals in our Huancai Pavilion, you can come over during the day.
If you bump into an official of the dynasty or a distinguished disciple this late at night, I'm afraid Mr. Fu Yin will be very upset."
Li Yihai sneered and said: "The officials we are investigating are the officials of the current dynasty! In the 17th year of Hongwu, the late emperor issued a strict order that officials of the current dynasty were prohibited from hanging around brothels. We are here to inspect on the orders of Lord Fu Yin."
Sister Han Yue suddenly misunderstood, thinking that His Majesty was determined to punish officials for sleeping in prostitutes. Although she was very angry, she did not dare to stop him anymore, and stepped aside to comfort the frightened female courtesans and servants.
In the house, Huang Muling heard Li Yihai's words and said in panic: "What can we do?" Although he told his father that he would go out to play with friends tonight, he did not say that he was coming to the brothel Chu Palace! His family's tutoring was very strict.
If his father found out about this, he would be beaten when he returned.
Lu Chenglin was also a little scared, but he was still calm and said: "It's nothing. They are checking the officials of the current dynasty, not the descendants of the nobles. The Emperor Taizu's decree at that time also strictly prohibited officials, not the nobles who have not yet become officials."
"It's just," he turned to Zhang Xian and said, "Brother Zhang is in trouble."
Sang Chengbi also said: "Yes, Brother Zhang, what should you do? Even if His Majesty lets you off lightly, Mr. Huining will..."
Zhang Wen actually doesn't care much about family affairs, but he said to each of his sons: "I don't care what you do on weekdays, but if I hear that you are doing anything illegal, I will catch you and give you a good meal."
Beat me!" Therefore, his sons never dared to break the law or bully others outside.
Zhang Xian himself is also a little scared. Although he has some abilities, he is still young and has no experience in such things and does not know how to do it well.
It was Cao Shou'an who thought quickly and said: "Brother Zhang, this is the only time you can give me your fourth brother's name. The fourth brother is not an official now, and you are about the same age as the third brother, so you can get by."
"It's just that after you go back, Third Brother, you still have to tell the truth to the old Marquis. I'm afraid you'll still have to learn a lesson."
The "fourth brother" he refers to is Zhang Wen's fourth son Zhang Quan, who is seventeen years old and three years younger than Zhang Xian and has not yet become an official.
Chang
.
Seeing that he finally had a relatively appropriate solution to Zhang Xian's problem, Lu Chenglin breathed a sigh of relief; but then he was secretly angry.
He invited these people here today not because he had money but no place to spend it, but for a purpose.
Since Yunxi succeeded to the throne, he has not paid much attention to the princesses of the previous generation. Many of the princes-in-law have no serious duties. His father Lu Xian is now just an empty-headed prince, serving as a careless governor in the Youjun Governor's Mansion.
That's all.
So the father and son were a little anxious. Although they didn't care about anything, they also knew about Yunxi's plans that were not hidden from anyone in the court. They knew that there would be at least a big battle to be fought in the northwest in the next few years, and there might also be a battle against Annan, and also against Annan.
Mongolia will definitely have small wars, but it may not be possible that there will be no big wars.
In these wars, many military generals will definitely stand out and become new nobles. If these people remain in idle positions and cannot make contributions, they will gradually become marginalized in the future. After his mother passes away, no one will remember their family.
.
Therefore, he has been trying to make friends with the sons of the princes and uncles who are more important at the moment and those who are capable even though their families are a bit outdated. Sang Chengbi and Cao Shou'an are people who are relatively capable even though their families are not very important.
.
He finally got acquainted with Zhang Xian, and today he invited him out to have a drink together, and at the same time, he also helped Huang Muling clean up his dust. Although Huang Muling's father was only the governor general, he was a powerful governor general.
It is rumored that His Majesty recently wants to appoint Huang Xuan as the left prime minister of the Song Dynasty, which is also worth making friends with.
But Ying Tianfu Yamen's inspection tonight ruined all this. 'Damn Huang Huai, it's not a good day to choose, I have to inspect the brothel Chu Palace today!' Lu Chenglin thought in his heart.
A few people tidied their clothes, packed up their things, and left after recording their names. Now they were not in the mood to continue having fun.
"We can only make an appointment another day. I'm afraid they haven't been in the mood in the past few days. They will wait ten days to make an appointment. But Huang Muling has just arrived in the capital, so it's better to meet him early, even if I am the only one with weight." Lu Chenglin
Keep thinking.
After a while, Li Yihai brought two people to the private room. Li Yihai opened the door and took a look. When he saw their clothes, he knew that they were descendants of the Xungui family. After taking a closer look, he immediately recognized Sang Chengbi.
.His father, Sang Jing, served as the commander of the Yulin left guard two years ago, and Sang Chengbi also served in the army, so he knew him.
Li Yihai subconsciously performed a military salute, but immediately realized that his action was not appropriate. He stood up straight, coughed and said: "Several young masters, at the order of Mr. Yin of Tianfu, checked whether there were any officials of the dynasty in Xiancai Pavilion.
, please also ask some gentlemen to report their names."
When Lu Chenglin and the others saw the leader who came in was a man who was missing his forearm, they knew that he was a disabled veteran transferred from the Twelve Guards. Then when they saw him subconsciously performing a military salute, they became even more confident and felt instantly.
Relaxed a bit.
They are different from those officials of the current dynasty. The officials of the current dynasty have nothing to do with the guards. The policemen transferred from these guards will definitely not sell their face. On the contrary, the retained government officials may be more relaxed when inspecting.
They are just the opposite. Their families are all in the military, which has a certain deterrent effect on the policemen who came from the guards, but it is of no use to the government officials. So they are more relaxed at this time, thinking that even if someone recognizes Zhang Xian, they will not tell him.
real identity.
Sure enough, I don’t know if they recognized it, but they had no reaction when Zhang Xian wrote the word ‘Zhang Quan’.
After they all wrote down their names, Li Yihai said: "Young gentlemen, let's go now."
Lu Chenglin and the others really wanted to leave. They were not in the mood to continue having fun now. But when he heard what Li Yihai said was wrong, he asked, "Why, do you still have something to do?"
Perhaps because they are all noble sons, Li Yihai explained: "Master Fu Yin arranged for us to send out such a large battle, not just to investigate officials staying in brothels."
