This Northern Song Dynasty is a bit weird

Chapter 21 The Dying Man
Looking at Uncle Qi's slightly awkward expression, Lu Sen smiled and said, "Old Qi, you know the brothel very well."

"It's all hearsay, it's all hearsay, those places are the gold-selling caves, where can we servants afford to go."

When Uncle Qi spoke, his face was righteous.

Naturally, Lu Sen wouldn't believe it. He continued to ask, "What do I need to prepare to meet a famous sister like Zhao Xiangxiang, or are there any taboos?"

Uncle Qi became curious: "Lu Xiaolang hasn't visited the brothel or drunk flower wine?"

"I admire it quite a bit, and I'm about to set foot on it for the first time." Lu Sen smiled.

hiss!
Uncle Qi first took a breath, and then touched the back of his head angrily: "Yeah, this is not easy to handle."

He regrets it a lot now, and he knew that he shouldn't have told about Zhao Xiangxiang.In front of him, Lu Xiaolang has never visited a brothel. What a good young man he is, and how well he matches his little lady.

If the two of them really succeed in the future, after the little lady became a wife, and then heard that her own official visited the brothel for the first time, it was the experience that she heard from herself, and it is estimated that she would stab herself ten or eight with a long spear. The blood hole came out.

I feel scared thinking about it.

So he felt that he had to save himself: "Why don't the villain ask for Lu Xiaolang for you, just go home and wait for the news?"

Lu Sen shook his head: "Thank you Lao Qi, don't bother, just tell me what taboos and rules you have."

"Actually, there are not too many rules. You are either very powerful and they dare not refuse at will, or you can write poems and write lyrics to get the eyes of famous sisters." Uncle Qi saw Lu Sen's serious expression, so he had to say: "As long as famous sisters Children like to set some strange rules, such as Zhao Xiangxiang, who is not talented, and who is not handsome... Lu Xiaolang should be able to meet her, and someone who is more handsome than you in Bian capital is probably not born."

Lu Sen was stunned for a moment and asked, "Can't you have a lot of money?"

"Hahaha." Uncle Qi laughed: "Scholars, peasants, businessmen, businessmen are contemptible. Rich people may be able to bully ordinary people, but in our Bian capital, even young ladies will not raise their eyebrows to look at them. Throw it away. Money... they do throw money in brothels, but they're just helping others pay for alcohol."

Lu Sen understood.

Rich people go to brothels only to spend the night with ordinary prostitutes, while famous prostitutes can only be enjoyed by literati and high officials.

Even rich people want to meet famous prostitutes, and they have to pay for prostitutes to go to the wing of the famous prostitutes, so that they can meet and pass the eye addiction.

This is of course because businessmen are not welcome, and another reason is that the status of famous prostitutes in the Zhao and Song Dynasty is a little abnormal.

The main one is Concubine Liu De, who, as a geek and wife of others, just became the queen, and finally became the queen dowager under the curtain.

It's a legend.

Affected by this, the literati ministers of Zhao and Song Dynasty all looked at the famous prostitutes a little higher.

Therefore, courtesans have the confidence to look down on all social classes except literati and high officials.

Knowing that Zhao Xiangxiang's money is not easy to use, only power, talent and appearance are useful, Lu Sen handed over to Uncle Qi and said, "Thank you Lao Qi for telling me, I will ask you for a drink after this matter is over. Xiaojiu, thank you very much."

"Lu Xiaolang is very polite."

Leaving Tianbo Yang Mansion, Lu Sen turned a few corners in the street and came to the entrance of Nuan Yu Pavilion.

Warm Jade Pavilion is the name of a painting boat.

It was noon now.

Many painting boats are docked on the shore, but the 'Nuanyu Pavilion' is the largest and tallest, and Lu Sen saw it at a glance.

The ship is divided into three floors, and red veils are hung between the deck corridors on each floor.

Many of the young ladies who have woken up have looked out sleepily from the windows in the corridor.

Lu Sen appeared at the door of the Nuanyu Pavilion. It was still early and there were not many passengers. The Nuanyu Pavilion seemed a little deserted.

But there was still a middle-aged woman who was quite flirtatiously dressed came up and said with a flattering smile: "Oh, this young man is so handsome. I have lived for more than 30 years, and I have never seen such a handsome man. You came so early, yes Which girl in our pavilion did you fall in love with?"

This old bustard looks okay, with powder on his face, a little beauty, even the crow's feet at the corner of his eyes can't be covered.

As she said that, she also came over and stuck it to Lu Sen's side.

And greeted Lu Sen and walked in.

Although the Nuan Jade Boat is the largest painting boat in the Bianshui River, it is not really big.

It's about 35 meters long and [-] meters wide.

Although it has three floors, in order not to be overturned by strong winds, the height of each floor is only three meters, and the center of gravity should be kept as low as possible.

In addition, this painting boat does not actually start, it just stops on the shore as a special 'broodhouse'.

Because it is not suitable for navigating in river water.

Lu Sen is 1.8 meters tall. When he entered the painting boat, the ceiling was a little close to his head, so he felt a little oppressed.

Stepping on the red cloth blanket, Lu Sen came to a round wooden table in the main hall and sat down.

The old lady looked at Lu Sen from the side, and felt more and more that the short-haired young man in front of her was really rare and handsome. She couldn't help but wondered in her heart. Then she threw off the handkerchief in her hand, put one hand on Lu Sen's shoulder, and asked: "Guanren, do you want to listen to the ditty first, or go directly to the girl you like?"

The lady also usually calls the benefactor an official. After all...you have to do that, and it seems reasonable to call the official.

Lu Sen put his right hand on the table, and nodded lightly on the table with four fingers: "I'm looking for Zhao Xiangxiang."

"Sister Xiangxiang." The old bustard looked at Lu Sen's face and sighed, "Your face does meet Sister Xiangxiang's conditions. The officials wait a moment, and I will inform Sister Xiangxiang."

The old lady went upstairs, twisting her waist.

At this time, a young lady yawned and sat on the second-floor aisle of the main hall. When she saw someone below, she subconsciously looked at it and couldn't help but exclaimed, "Wow, what a handsome official."

She shouted so loudly that everyone on the second floor seemed to hear it.

At this time, the ladies were very leisurely when it was time to start work, and when they heard the screams, they came out to watch the fun.

After a while, there were a dozen or so women who were half-dressed, lying on the second floor and looking down.

Then everyone was amazed.

"It's really handsome. If he likes me, he doesn't need to charge me."

"The skin looks better than our women's. It is estimated that they are from an aristocratic family. There is no shortage of women. The female workers and maids in the family are in trouble."

"Could it be that the family style is stricter and come out to have fun?"

"It's amazing to come during the day."

Lu Sen glanced up at them, then looked back.

If it was really a young man named Lang Chu, he would have blushed like a monkey's butt when he saw these white-and-white temptation scenes, and he would even be at a loss.

However, Lu Sen's heart did not fluctuate.

There is no way, since he was a child, he has accepted the beatings of the Internet world, forcing him to watch some pornographic advertisements every day, and he can't shut it down if he wants to.Over time, I have been able to see the strangeness, and my heart is like water.

Although the young ladies upstairs had a lively discussion, they actually knew that the young man below had a dirty temperament and was definitely not an ordinary person. , did not come down to 'find' fun.

Soon the old prostitute came down from the third floor again, she smiled: "Sister Xiangxiang just woke up not long ago, she didn't want to see people, but I said a lot of good things to you, and she agreed. How can you thank me, official."

"sorry to bother you."

Lu Sen stuffed one or two pieces of silver into the opponent's hand.

This time, the prostitute immediately raised his eyebrows and smiled: "The officials are really generous."

Then she led the way with great energy and took Lu Sen to the third floor.

Money is not everything, but it can solve most problems and disputes.

The air was filled with a strong fragrance. The two stopped in front of a room. The old bustard called in a high-pitched voice, "Sister Xiangxiang, I brought someone here."

"Understood, please come in."

"Have fun." The old man flattered and swept the silk scarf on Lu Sen's chest, then twisted his waist and left happily.

Lu Sen pushed the door in and closed the door gently.

After all, it is a ship, and there are many girls here, so this room is definitely not too big.

A double red bed, with a silk tent falling down, vaguely, you can't see what's inside.

Then there is a dresser on the left side, a rug in the middle of the room, and a low table on it.

There was a woman sitting at the table. The silk robe was neatly dressed, but it was a little more exposed.The fragrant shoulders and long neck are as round as white jade, and a pink tube top is eye-catching.

The woman is very beautiful, her hair is not tied up, it is just scattered straight.

It looked like she had just woken up, and it had a coquettish smell.

Lu Sen walked over and sat cross-legged across from the woman.

When the woman first saw Lu Sen, she was a little stunned. When he sat down, she couldn't help but say, "I thought Mi Niang was talking big, but it turns out that she is really a rare and handsome young man."

Mi Niang is the old prostitute who just left.

Everyone has been young before, and the prostitute was born very beautiful when she was a girl.

"Miss Zhao Xiangxiang?" Lu Sen sat cross-legged, staring into each other's eyes.

"It's me." Zhao Xiangxiang looked at Lu Sen again and said with a sigh, "Young man, your temperament is out of this world, and you shouldn't be involved in this worldly land. When you go home, find a noble woman and become your own son."

Zhao Xiangxiang really felt that a young man with such a clean aura in front of him should not come to drink flower wine.

This place will stain him.Even himself, the feeling will stain him.

Lu Sen was about to speak, but at this moment, there was a sudden cough on the bed behind Zhao Xiangxiang.

He coughed several times, his voice was low, and it was obviously a man.

Zhao Xiangxiang got up immediately, went to the bed in a hurry, lifted up the silk curtain, and in the flowery quilt, there was an old white-haired man who was covering his mouth and coughing constantly, looking very uncomfortable.

"Guanren, take your time, don't cough hurt your heart and lungs."

Zhao Xiangxiang sat on the bed, lifted the old man up with a distressed face, made him rest on his legs, and patted the old man's heart lightly.

Lu Sen got up and walked over, looking at the old man carefully.

Although the other party is very old and even looks sick, but looking at his face has a romantic air, thinking that when he was young, he was also a romantic and suave person.

Seemingly sensing the sight of an outsider, the man opened his eyes, looked at Lu Sen, and smiled: "Xiangxiang, you are really lucky, this young man is more handsome than I was when I was young, and he seems to be a boy. , make a lot of money..."

Having said that, the old man coughed again.

Zhao Xiangxiang was a little annoyed, but seeing him coughing, she rubbed his chest and massaged him distressedly: "Lang Jun, don't say a word, don't be angry, concubine is fine!"

The old man coughed several times in a row, and after getting better, he smiled with difficulty: "Xiangxiang is not annoyed, it's me who's wrong, it's me who's wrong."

Lu Sen looked at it and thought it was very interesting.

This elder sister Zhao Xiangxiang hides an old man in the room. Seeing that the relationship between the two should be the kind that Lang Youqing concubine intends, she came to pick up the guest again. This is really... Lu Sen couldn't help shaking his head.But then, he suddenly thought of something and raised his eyebrows slightly.

Zhao Xiangxiang looked at the old man who was so sick that he had no strength, and sighed, then turned to Lu Sen and said, "This official, you have also seen it. Although my man is here, although I can meet you, it is inconvenient. If I do other things with you again, I am afraid that Langjun’s illness will attack you, can you ask the official to come back at a different time!”

Lu Sen ignored Zhao Xiangxiang, but clasped his fists and asked the old man, "Is the old man Liu Sanbian, Liu Duntian?"

Liu Sanbian, Liu Jingzhuang, Liu Yong... Lu Sen had read a lot of words from the person in front of him.

Liu Duntian is his official title... just like Bao Zheng called Bao Longtu.

The old man was stunned for a moment, then coughed twice, and said with a smile, "You guessed it. Which son is the young man?"

Zhao Xiangxiang sighed.

"The surname is Lu Mingsen, a person outside Fang."

Liu Yong and Zhao Xiangxiang were both stunned.

"Help me up." Liu Yong exerted a little effort, and with Zhao Xiangxiang's help, he sat up against the head of the bed and stared at Lu Sen again, his already yellow eyes showing some surprise: "Lu Xiaolang came to Nuanyu Pavilion. Looking for Xiangxiang doesn't seem to be greedy for Fengyue?"

"Indeed. Uncle Liu, you guessed it right."

Lu Sen nodded and said his intention again.

After listening, Liu Yongman said with admiration: "Xiao Lang, you have a good personality. Now there are not many people who are willing to avoid trouble for your servants. Xiangxiang, just help him and make a line for him."

"But I helped him, what if the talks between the two sides collapsed?" Zhao Xiangxiang said sadly, "I'm a joker, at most I'll ruin my body and beggars a few times, but in case they get angry at Lang Jun, your body can't hold it."

"Anyway, the dying person..." Liu Yong smiled and said indifferently.

"Lang Jun, please don't talk about this sad thing, I feel sad." Zhao Xiangxiang lowered her head and wiped away her tears, she was really sad.

well!Liu Yong sighed deeply.

Lu Sen thought about it, took out a handful of lettuce from the system backpack, and handed it over: "Try it, it tastes pretty good."

There are a lot of cooked food in his system backpack, as well as several freshly picked vegetables, which are spare materials.

Anyway, the things in the system backpack will not be corrupted, so bring some.

This lettuce appeared very abruptly.

Liu Yong was stunned, and Zhao Xiangxiang was also stunned. They didn't understand where Lu Sen took out the lettuce.

And... come to the brothel and bring a handful of lettuce, what kind of quirk is this?
Zhao Xiangxiang was then a little annoyed: "Lang Jun is weak and short of breath, and it is not good for eating raw vegetables. Lu Guanren, you are trying to harm him."

"Try it, it tastes really good." Lu Sen smiled and blinked at Liu Yong, and said, "Anyway, it's not a loss for a dying person to eat food. In case of a symptom, the cough might get better."

If you say that your vegetable leaves can add a small amount of health and relieve Liu Yong a little bit of pain, most of these two people will not believe it, but will think that you are a magician.

Then I thought about kicking people out.

So... it's better to provoke them.

Zhao Xiangxiang raised her eyebrows upside down and was about to get angry.

But Liu Yong laughed twice, it seemed a little heroic, but soon the laughter turned into a series of coughs.

After coughing, he panted and said in a hoarse voice, "The lettuce looks very watery, come and give me a few bites. I have been drinking medicine all this time, and my tongue is so bitter."

Zhao Xiangxiang begged: "Lang Jun, you need to take care of your body. The doctor has told you not to eat raw vegetables."

"It's okay." Liu Yong stretched out his hand: "Lu Xiaolang is right, anyway, people who are about to die. I still want to drink now, what's wrong with eating two mouthfuls of green vegetables."

Lu Sen handed a handful of lettuce leaves to Liu Yong.
