Just as Fan Xian often said, no matter what happens, life will always continue
When time slowly crept into the fourthcalendar, there was notfamily property case, which had caused such aAfter the palace treasury opening, the various royalThe officials were still secretly collecting silver, and the people of Suzhou were still discussing matters of country, hoesSince the Ming fa, both sides had repeated this for too long, and it gradually lost its original feeling of freshness and exciteovernment to watch becaation er in thisof the court became once every three days and now, the court had not opened for six days
Song shi+ren and Chen Bochang, with the help of their respective powers, were still buried in piles of ancient paper andlaws in search of evidence beneficial to the family and Xia Qifei had alreadyfamily knew they couldn't allow the imperial envoy to put all their attention on the fathened their spirits and began to e the palace treasury business that was certain to be a cost this yearThey only hoped they could li how to run a businessWith his swift change, he had beco familyThe route to the North that had been used by the Cui family had already h the various provincial security h he had Fan Xian behind him to help, it was still a complex job
The day before he left Suzhou, Xia Qifei, with the identity as the Seventh young nan athering of powerful figures, and there was an endless strea in their wealth and noble airThey frankly stole 70 percent of the noble air in Suzhou
All of this noble air gathered at the place Xia Qifei invited his guests—the Suzhou branch of the Baoyue Brothel
Although delayed by many days, the Suzhou branch of the Baoyue Brothel finally opened for businessThe building had originally been the Ming family's Zhuyuan Restaurant, which was in the liveliest area in Suzhoushi+ Chanli had taken the 50,000 liang silver and cleaned up everywhereAll levels of the governiven Fan Xian plenty of face and waved their hands to allow theo aheadOnce the renovations were done, it was supposed to open for business at onceHowever, because some issues arose, it was delayed
An issue had been that the Baoyue Brothel did not have a presentable girl to headlineIn this world, everything needed the effect of a brandAlthough shi+ Chanli had bought some prostitutes from the bosses in the ro through Jiangnan as the lead role
Without a lead role to support the endeavour, Baoyue Brothel, which wanted to nan, definitely did not dare to open like thisSo they had delayed until Sang Wen reached JiangnanUsing her jianghu position in the profession, they hu dou's Baoyue Brothel taxed herself in body andprostitute fro River as well as a West Lake beauty that the Great Prince had taken froirls to Suzhou two match with those famous musiciansOnly then did shi+ Chanli have the confidence to officially open for business
Tonight, Xia Qifei laid out a feast for the giant nan on the second floorThe red lanterns were strung higher, and theof the Baoyue Brothel a beautiful start
They didn't widely invite guests for the first day of the opening, since they only invited the richest people in Jiangnan to co ht of the to the prostitute to e Diandian, as no more than 16 years oldShe had a natural romantic airBetween her still childlike brows floated soul-stealing charm, but there was also a hidden thread of coldnessThe an her career, she stole the attention of tens and thousands in the field of loveShe was said to be—after Yuan Men and Si Lili, who had becoend of the brothels—the one with the irls in a lead role
However, Liang Diandian hadn't even had tihtUnwillingly on her side, the Baoyue Brothel forcefully sent her to SuzhouShe couldn't help but feel unhappy in her heart, but knowing the background of the Baoyue Brothel, she couldn't really fight itAfter she arrived in Suzhou, the first thing she did was sign a contract, a novel idea for her, with Sang WenWhat surprised her was that the contract seemed to benefit her…how could there be such a brothel owner in the world?
The other beauty from West Lake was different to the wohtly sunken without any sense of it bulgingRather, it was the intense outline that deepened the allure of her faceHer slightly dark skin did not appear to be rough, rather, it had the mysterious beauty of a black pearlFurtherure was very full, rounded in the front and perky at the backIt doht flavor of the local woins were evenDiandianThis West Lake beauty, Ma Suosuo, was a princess of one of the West Lake tribes
When the Great Prince led the army on an expedition to the West and completely defeated West Lake, no one kne est tribe, to show his sincerity in surrendering, presented his precious daughter to the Great Prince, with soeUnexpectedly, the Great Prince was a rough bloke and considered his ene the Great Princess of Northern Qi, it became even more inconvenient to have the West Lake beauty stay in hisa lead role in his opening of a Jiangnan brothel, he urgently sent her to Baoyue Tower and then Suzhou
As these two girls were traveling fro of Baoyue Brothel, the Eight Bureau had helped Fan Xian advertise sufficientlyAlthough the Eighth Bureau did not havethese two ladies into peerless beauties that could only be found in heaven and certainly not on earth was an easy taskshi+ Chanli coordinated with the ruuesses that circulated around the irls e
The trip was for nothing but reputation and to let those lascivious people of Jiangnan catch a gli the way, there were countless lechers following the carriageAll around the carriage, the green plans were flattened by countless pairs of male feet and horseshoesThe so-called trip was nan knehat kind of girls the Baoyu Brothel now had, and their appetites had been whetted
…
…
At the opening, the two headlining girls did not couests with identities such as thefae to have them co obediently and quietly in a rooently raised bowls and cups, feeding the young man food and alcoholIn front of hiirls' hearts, they would not dare show it at allThey didn't even dare to use the tricks they were most proficient at to bewitch men
Their existence in this world depended solely on their appearances and their ability topeacefully and quietly between thehts…everyone knew that Sir Fan junior had a crystal heartThere was nothing in this world that he did not know, and there was not one person he couldn't see through
Fan Xian shook his head, indicating to the two girls beside him they didn't need to serve hiirls beside hinan, did not cause hi the first to experience them, was definitely a lieHowever, his mind was indeed not on hed, wondering how could this 16-year-old girl be so alluring? Her watery eyes seemed to be able to talkThis ued hi the action in Liang Diandian's eyes, Fan Xian knew the girl was just being a professional and currying favor fro his head back to see that West Lake beauty, Fan Xian's heart began to cry out bitterly
The slave was once a West Lake princess, and now she was helplessly stuck on this roadMa Suosuo had probably already accepted her fateIn this world, wooods in the hands of htShe had been sent by the Great Prince to Jiangnan, so Baoyue Brothel did not see and owner shi+ were also not cruelSir Fan in front of her was also very prettyIt see hard labor and being watched coldly by the prince's wife
Fan Xian sighed sorrowfully at Sang Wen sitting opposite hi a bully?”
Sang Wen was startled, then opened her slightly wide mouth and chuckled”Suosuo is naturally very beautifulOnly, you haven't ht nowThe Great Prince is not purposely deceiving you”
Fan Xian huffedIn his previous life, he had seen countless western beauties and was once an avid fan of AdjaniOf course, he was able to see as attractive about this West Lake beauty…however, the Great Prince was someone who feared neither the heavens nor irl to SuzhouIt was clear that months after the Great Princess of Northern Qi doed herself into a lioness of HedongThe Great Prince had sent Ma Suosuo to Suzhou because he wanted to protect Ma Sousou's lifeSince it was so, it h the Great Prince had no romantic interests in this West Lake beauty, he did have a thread of pity
Under these circureet guests? He probably had to look after her carefully in case the Great Prince suddenly becairl in his drunkenness and waking up to the sound of horns in an army camp, he then came to ask hi to let theuests?” shi+ Chanli walked inHe had probably had sohtly red, and his words were slightly unsteadySe stared directly at Fan Xian
Fan Xian furrowed his brows and thought for a bitHe turned to glance at Liang Diandian's thoughtful expression and knew that if he really did look after Ma Sousou, he would have to co hi our nauests”
He so out and play a piece and dance a little or sohtly startled and bowed down at the same time as Ma SousouMa Sousou was not yet faratefulness for Fan Xian still shone out froood as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as stolen, stolen is not as good as not able to be stolen, not able to be stolen is not as good as have people able to see it every day and feel their hearts itch but not be able to touch[JW1] …have the Jiangnan men endure for a few days and learn what it is like to distantly see but not closely touch”
He finally said to Sang Wen and shi+ Chanli, ”Men are a very base kind of animalIf you can understand this point, this business will be easy to run”
Hearing these words, shi+ Chanli was a bit e Wen, on the other hand, covered herBailing and his old friendsWith these , our reputation will be even better”
Fan Xian closed his eyes and waved his hand
Liang Diandian took Ma Sousou's hand and rose to bow sincerely to Fan Xian, and then was led out by Sang Wen
Fan Xian had shi+ Chanli come closerHe then said in a low voice, ”Keep an eye on Ma Suosuo and casually put the word out to let them all know that she is the Great Prince's…woets back to Jingdou?”
”I want to let others know that ood” Fan Xian licked his dry lips and took a drink froht alcoholHe s their hands…most importantly, why should ipe the butt of their fah his nose and said, ”I came with the Great Princess all the way south, of course I know she isn't a kind oneThe Great Prince is certainly very relaxed and also knew that in this world only I…the Great Princess would give some face tooSince I have to put in the effort, of course, sacrifices had to be ht, I anan while you brother princes are in Jingdou taking care of family mattersHe felt the injustice in his heart
…
…
The Suzhou branch of the Baoyue Brothel was not only used for si moneyIt was purely Fan Xian's own business, and it shouldered the heavy responsibility of becoence systemDeep in his heart, he could never fully trust the Overwatch CouncilWhether or not he could have the Overwatch Council was, in the current situation, still dependent on the word of the E renovated, the brass pipes had already been laid down like in the old building in JingdouThe people his father had sent to be responsible for collecting the intelligence reports were hidden fro before the girls ca had becoradually louder, yet the rooely silent
He rose and went to the toilet behind the bed to empty himself, then he adjusted his internal breathHe took off the coo labeled as ”work clothes” fro it on, he found it still fit wellIt looked like this half a year of noble living had not caused his figure to rapidly go out of shape
He strangely sat down againAfter confir he had taken half a year hiatus from, Fan Xian finally pushed open thein the rooly into the outside wall in the dark of night, and he slid like a gecko into the darkness below
After the zhenyi in his body had exploded and caused an to be careful about this use of zhenqiWithout being in the necessary circu to push the zhenqi to his pal it backThis kind of trick took up too round, and hethe back door of the Baoyue BrothelHe pushed opened the door and walked outHe saw the carriage that had long been waiting for hi Zi Yue sat in the driver's position with a straw hat on his head hiding eHe lifted a corner of the curtain and peered out alertly
Fan Xian flashed into the carriage and gently said one word, ”Go”
…
…
”Sir, how is your injury?” Gao Da did not fear Fan Xian's cold gazeHis highest command was to protect Fan Xian's safetyBefore he received confirer
Concerning Fan Xian's strange injury, the people under heaven could not agree on one explanation, but oThere were only a few people who knew the truthEunuch Hong was one of them, except the Emperor had Fan Xian very coldly h he had originally been fooled by Fan Xian, he had been constantly beside Fan Xian these few months and realized that the commissioner's zhenqi situation was completely different than when they were in Northern Qi
Even with Haitang giving hiree his injury had recoveredNo else knew, including Haitang
He lowered his head and said in a quiet voice, ”I'm fine” Then he quickly added, ”Have you confir Zi Yue nodded”After she escaped frodou, she had stayed in Suzhou the entire tiWe had also not expected the Jiangnan officials to offer her protection in secret…so it was not until a few days ago that we confirmed it”
A sliver of a cold s faive sonan officials still do not attach much ier GuardHearing these words, he furrowed his brow slightly and said, ”Young overnment to apprehend her…after all, the Ministry of Justice's cases are neverhi to the PalaceHe shook his head and said, ”If we inforainAfter all, she is one of the Second Prince's and Hong Cheng's personThe Ministry of Justice's wanted posters have no affect on herIt is not easy to catch her openly”
”Should have brought more people,” Gao Da furrowed his brows and said”Since she is running away under orders, she must have aces with herIt will not be easy to catch her alive”
”We are not catching her alive, we are just killing her” Fan Xian leaned against the back of the chair and closed his eyes to restl”I don't need her to defeat the Ming fa fa of the Baoyue BrothelNo one should be expecting us toeven less that…I will personally act”
