"Where is Fang Shihao now?"

"It's still in the south of the city. It's gone after noon today and hasn't come out yet."

"It's still the same place to listen to the Xiangxiaoxiu?"

"Yes. It's not very lively, but the dignitaries and nobles in Taiyuan City like to run there." Sun Zikong got close to Chu Huan, his voice was very low. "Tingxiang Xiaoxie is the best building in Taiyuan Mansion. Every girl in it has been carefully selected. He is different from ordinary buildings. He does not attract customers on the street. If he doesn't have enough status, he can't even get in."

"But you're in." Chu Huan said with a smile.

Sun Zikong smiled, his face full of unfulfilled feelings, "This is all the money given by the master. The so-called identity is silver. Where, the money represents your identity. First, pay ten taels of silver for tea and water, and the expenses inside are calculated separately. I have found out that the girls inside all start picking up customers at noon, and their dressing is different from ordinary girls...!"

"you mean?"

Sun Zikong sighed: "Master, if a man doesn't go there, he will be in vain."

Chu Huan sighed: "I just hope you haven't forgotten your errands."

"How can that be?" Sun Zikong whispered: "Fang Shihao, the commander of the Imperial Guard, left his backyard and did not take a carriage. After he went to the street, he hired a carriage and then went to the south city. When he left, he disguised himself and wore a very ordinary dress. If the master had not painted his portrait to me, I would have thought that he would be the dignified Imperial Guard."

"Then what?"

"He entered through the side door of Tingxiang Xiaoxie. It seemed that someone was waiting for him inside." Sun Zikong said: "He seemed to be afraid that others would see him, so he sneaked..."

"Then what?"

"I was afraid of alerting the snake, so I didn't follow through the side door, but went in through the main door." Sun Zikong said: "I originally wanted to inquire about Fang Shihao from Miss Yuluo, but Miss Yuluo seemed to know nothing about it, and even did not know that the command of the Imperial Guard had been to Tingxiang Xiaoxie."

"What is Miss Yuluo?"

Sun Zi Kong blushed, "It was arranged by Mama Yang..."

Chu Huan laughed and then said solemnly: "Apart from this, there is no other news?"

"Yes." Sun Zikong also said solemnly: "Although Yu Luo didn't know that Fang Shihao was in and out of Tingxiang Xiaoxie, she knew that there was only one person living in the back garden of Tingxiang Xiaoxie."

"who?"

"Tingxiang Xiaoxie's top brand Wu Waer...!"

"Wu Wa'er?" Chu Huan was stunned, "This name is very strange."

Sun Zikong showed a strange look on his face, and Chu Huan frowned and said, "What's wrong?"

Sun Zikong said awkwardly: "Master, the origin of this name..." Hesitated, and a lustful look appeared on his face, but he still leaned closer and said: "I heard that Wu Waer is not old, but...but he is very skilled, especially when he is excited, it is like crying, so...so I got a name like Wu Waer...!"

Chu Huan glanced at Sun Zikong with a strange look, locked his eyebrows slightly, and said softly: "If what you said by Miss Yuluo is true, then is Fang Shihao just looking for this top card with a voice that sounds like a crying cry?"

Sun Zikong shook his head, "I can't be sure, but when I enter the side door, I go through the back garden. Unless Fang Shihao is not looking for a girl, he must be looking for Wu Waer. However, it is said that Wu Waer's price is extremely high, and she will have to play the piano for fifty taels. If she dances, she will add another hundred taels. If she wants to spend the night, she won't even think about it if she doesn't have three hundred taels of silver."

Chu Huan was stunned. The price was so high that it was indeed a bit incredible.

Although Fang Shihao was the commander of the Imperial Guard, his annual salary should not be very high. In fact, the salary of the Qin bureaucrats was not high overall. Although Chu Huan was the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and was already a high-ranking official, his monthly salary was less than 100 taels. Generals like Fang Shihao could only have a lower salary.

Sun Zikong seemed to think of this and whispered: "Master, Fang Shihao's mansion looks very ordinary, not a rich family. A few hundred taels of silver a night may not be a big deal for those rich businessmen, but it should be very difficult for Fang Shihao. If there is no other source of wealth, he would not be able to afford it." He blinked and asked: "Master, do you think Fang Shihao has enough money and withholds military pay, and wants to investigate him?"

Chu Huanqi said: "Do you still know how to deduct military pay?"

Sun Zikong said proudly: "Soldiers are not as easy as civil servants to get money. If they want to get money, they can only deduct military pay or get empty salary, except for fighting and robbing spoils."

Chu Huan laughed and said, "Then do you think Fang Shihao is deducting military pay?"

Sun Zikong knew the importance of it. Even in front of Chu Huan, he asserted that a dignified commander withdrew military pay without any evidence. This was a serious crime. He dared not say much, but just smiled embarrassedly.

But Chu Huan leaned on the chair. After a long time, she smiled at Sun Zikong and said, "Wu Waer... I really want to see what kind of beauty Wu Waer is..."

Sun Zikong hurriedly said, "Master, if you really want to see her, I will get up early tomorrow and go there to do it for you first..."

"Why have to wait until tomorrow?" Chu Huan had already stood up, "I want to see this Tingxiang Xiaoxie now!"

Sun Zikong said with a bitter face: "Master, it's so late. You will definitely not be able to see Wu Waer when you go there at this time. Now that Wu Waer may be in Fang Shihao's arms..."

Chu Huan glanced at him and said lightly: "There is always one that suits me if you are red and green willows."

Sun Zikong didn't dare to say much, but he was thinking in his heart that the charming beauties in the mansion didn't see how close you were to them. Why did he come to Taiyuan? Instead, he was filled with spring?

"By the way, what should I do with the guys locked in the backyard?"

"Let him stay there." Chu Huan said, "Maybe it will be available when it will be used." After a pause, he said, "Tomorrow, you will go to the inn to see if Ma Zheng and the others are back. Xuanyuan Sheng should have arrived. They were two days later than expected. I'm afraid they were delayed on the way. If you hear any news from them, report me immediately...!"

...

...

Tingxiang Xiaoxie is located in the south of the city. From the outside, it does not look like Chunlou, but rather like a wealthy house with a wide manor and pink lanterns hanging on the door. When Chu Huan came here, it was already midnight.

Although it was late at night, Tingxiang Xiaoxie was not deserted. There were a series of horse-drawn carriages in front of the door. The drivers who drove the carriage wrapped in cotton jackets and gathered together to talk dirty jokes, while their owners experienced the real warm fragrance of nephrite in the garden.

The entry fee of ten taels of silver is of course a drop in the bucket for Chu Huan now. Although the entry fee is indeed very expensive, when you enter the garden, you will know that you get what you pay for. This place is indeed different from ordinary brothels. Located in the garden is a small courtyard with red lanterns. Although the sound of orioles and swallows come from time to time, it is hard to think that this is a spring building.

When Chu Huan came out, she did not dress up deliberately, wearing a very ordinary cotton robe, but even so, the madam who came up with her was still smiling. Looking at her expression, she seemed to have seen the most handsome and heroic man in the world. "Where did this young master come from? Look at you, what tricks do you want to play with?"

Sun Zikong had already come forward and asked, "Mom Yang, do you still know me?"

The mother Yang was still staring at Chu Huan's face, and didn't even see Sun Zikong's face. Then she smiled and said, "I know, how can I not know you? Is this master a familiar girl, or a different taste?"

Sun Zikong coughed twice before asking, "Is that... Miss Yuluo empty?"

"Yu Luo?" Yang's mother smiled, "Are you talking about the down-and-out Miss?"

"Yes..." Sun Zikong said with a bit of an embarrassment.

Chu Huan said strangely: "What a down-and-out lady?"

Before Sun Zikong could explain, Yang's mother had already smiled and said, "It turns out that this young man is not familiar with us. We have all kinds of girls here, including down-and-out noble ladies, nuns in the temple, Taoist nuns in the martial arts temple, chivalrous women in the rivers and lakes, gorgeous ladies, widowed pretty daughter-in-law, honest and obedient village girl...!"

Chu Huan was stunned and couldn't help but say, "Where is this?"

Sun Zikong hurriedly said, "Master, that's all fake, all girls pretend to be...!"

Chu Huan was stunned, but he realized in an instant that no wonder the cost here is very expensive, but it turned out to be unique. He actually played role-playing in the garden. It seemed that the owner of Tingxiang Xiaoxie was really business-minded.

At this time, I realized that the girl Yuluo that Sun Zikong liked was playing the role of a down-and-out rich lady.

Chu Huan laughed and asked, "I heard that there is a red card in your garden with a voice like a doll crying. I wonder if I can see you?"

Mother Yang immediately shook her head and said, "Young Master, I'm really sorry. The baby has been feeling uncomfortable these days and cannot meet guests."

Chu Huan's face remained unchanged and said with a smile: "I just want to sit with the baby girl for a while and never disturb her for too long..." There were already two ingots of gold in her hand, "Can mom make a convenience?"

When Mother Yang saw that the gold was not worth a lot, she still said helplessly: "Young master is considerate. The girl is in poor health. Let's take a break early. Even mothers cannot be wronged. There are so many girls in our garden...!" He pointed to a courtyard not far away, "It's a farmhouse and it's also a very good girl in our garden. You might as well go see her. I promise she will be able to serve the young master well and will not disappoint you."

Chu Huan knew that it was useless to persevere. It seemed that it was really difficult to see Wu Waer, and smiled and said, "I just hope she can talk to me more."

"As long as the young master is happy, she will accompany you until tomorrow morning." Mother Yang said with a smile on her face.

Chu Huan said nothing more, threw the gold in his hand to his mother, took another ingot to Sun Zikong. Yang's mother smiled and pointed to the yard and said, "Young Master, just go, she is waiting for you there, you will have fun tonight."
