Ji Qingzhou has been wearing inner servants since entering the palace, and has no chance to wear other clothes.
But today when he goes out of the palace to go to the Jiaofang Division, it is impossible for him to wear a whole body of servants, that would be too outrageous.
Fortunately, after the salary was paid last month, someone from Tuda made new clothes for him, and Ji Qingzhou found them out and changed them into them today.The clothes were plain white with light gold threads on the corners. It looked ordinary, but when worn on Ji Qingzhou's body, it added a lot of color, and made the young man look like a scholar.
"Huh!" Qin Zheng's eyes lit up when he saw Ji Qingzhou, and he said, "You have to be more careful when you wear this dress to Jiaofang Si."
"Why?" Ji Qingzhou didn't know why, and there was a bit of confusion on his face.
Qin Zheng said: "But it's not bad for you to change your clothes. Just by standing in the Jiaofang Division with this face, the girls and boys there will lose their color a lot. Those who don't know may think..."
"Qin Zheng." Li Zhan's voice sounded coldly, and Qin Zheng had to shut up after hearing the words.
Ji Qingzhou looked up at Li Zhan, and saw that Li Zhan was wearing a blue robe today, with a white jade hair crown tied on his head. He looked like a tree facing the wind, and seemed to be a little more heroic than usual.
"It's too plain..." Li Zhan looked at Ji Qingzhou, turned around and walked to the table, took out a sapphire hairpin from the wooden box, raised his hand and pinned it on Ji Qingzhou's hair.The sapphire hairpin was of excellent quality, don't let the boy's black hair instantly add a bit of extravagance to the boy, and at the same time make him look not as ignorant and young as before, but a little more mature.
"It's much better." Li Zhan looked at the boy for a moment, then said.
It was only then that Ji Qingzhou realized that Li Zhan was afraid that he would look too young and would go to the Jiaofang Division to be interrogated.
Last night, Ji Qingzhou asked the people in Yinghui Pavilion about some things about Jiaofangsi, and he knew that it was different from ordinary brothels, and the patrons were usually people with official positions in the capital, so there were quite a lot of rules.Among other things, people who are too young will definitely not be able to enter.
"Let's go, I've got the carriage ready." Qin Zheng said excitedly.
"You don't need a carriage, you can walk." Li Zhan said.
"It takes at least two cups of tea to walk from the gate of the palace to Jiaofangsi. Don't you think it's tiring?" Qin Zheng said, "It's a hot day, and I'm sweating all over when I walk there. It's annoying to the girls."
Li Zhan glanced at Qin Zheng and said, "You stay in the palace today and study with His Majesty."
"Ah?" Qin Zheng said with a look of surprise: "You are visiting the Jiaofang Division, why don't you take me with you?"
"En." Li Zhan responded lightly, and said to Ji Qingzhou, "Let's go."
Ji Qingzhou hurriedly followed behind Li Zhan, Qin Zheng didn't give up on following, but Li Zhan stretched out his hand and took the badge away.
"You take my badge, how can I get in?" Qin Zheng said.
"That's why I let you stay in the palace." Li Zhan waved to him without looking back.
Qin Zheng looked resentful, but he could only accept his fate, and honestly went to Fu'an Palace to find the little emperor.
When the two of them left the palace, Ji Qingzhou knew that Li Zhan was not joking when he said not to take a carriage.
It was approaching noon, and the sunlight outside was quite dazzling, but Li Zhan seemed very comfortable. Walking on the bustling long street in the capital, he looked like a nobleman, completely different from his unsmiling appearance in the court.
"My lord... Is it wrong for us not to bring guards?" Ji Qingzhou said worriedly.
It was the first time for him to leave the palace so swaggeringly after crossing over, and he was alone with Li Zhan, without Dong Dong by his side.Ji Qingzhou couldn't help but think of many plots in the film and television drama, for fear that he would meet another assassin or something. If Li Zhan was assassinated, his life would probably be lost.
"Change your name." Li Zhan said.
"It's... Young Master." Ji Qingzhou hastily changed his address.
Hearing this, Li Zhan stopped and looked at him with a faint smile in his eyes.Although Ji Qingzhou's clothes are plain and clean, her human temperament is not compromised at all. Standing in front of Li Zhan, she doesn't look like a servant at all.
After a while, Li Zhan said, "Call me brother."
"Oh..." Ji Qingzhou had no choice but to say: "Brother, we don't bring guards..."
Li Zhan heard that he had been struggling with the issue of the guards, and laughed and said: "In broad daylight, can we two big men still be eaten?"
"I'm worried about Wang... brother's safety." Ji Qingzhou looked around with a very cautious expression.
It's no wonder that he went out of the palace twice before, one was to go to the other garden, and the other was to see the old prince, and he was accompanied by guards from the palace everywhere.But today Li Zhan is alone, and only brings Ji Qingzhou, who can't lift his hands or shoulders, so Ji Qingzhou will naturally be a little nervous.
Isn't that what they do on TV?
The emperor made a private visit in micro-service, and was ambushed and attacked by people from heaven/earth/hui or some kind of flower/hui...
"It's only when you're so nervous that you attract attention. Be normal." Li Zhan whispered in Ji Qingzhou's ear.
Ji Qingzhou took a deep breath, followed Li Zhan honestly, and then had time to look around.
The scenery of the capital is not very new to him. He has been to the film and television city several times before, and he has also been to the ancient town with that kind of cultural theme. The feeling is somewhat similar to the present.Even the juggling stage on the street seemed familiar to him... But after thinking about it, what he transmigrated into was a book. Isn't the world constructed in the book just like those film and television dramas?
After all, the author has never been to ancient times, and his imagination of ancient times can only be based on his own cognition.
When the two of them crossed the street, a juggler on the stage was playing with fire, holding a wooden stick in his hand, and a ball was poked on the wooden stick. He sprayed on the ball, and the ball caught fire, causing the crowd to applaud .
Ji Qingzhou looked really boring and unattractive in this scene.
A moment later, the stick in the juggler's hand turned into a long/whip, and the whip/whip brought the fireball with it, and then swung it towards them.Ji Qingzhou was startled when he saw this, pulled Li Zhan back, and shouted: "Be careful."
Seeing that with such a pounce, the two of them were bound to fall to the ground, but Li Zhan took a step back, stretched out his hand to wrap around his waist, and stood firmly behind him.And the long whip with the fireball brushed by the onlookers elicited a burst of exclamation, and then took it back.
Ji Qingzhou: ...
I thought it was a scene of escorting in a crisis, but who would have thought that the clown was actually himself.
"I... I thought..." Ji Qingzhou scratched his head in embarrassment, with a wonderful expression.
Li Zhan's eyes fell on the young man's face for a moment, with a faint smile in his eyes, then he raised his hand to help Ji Qingzhou straighten the messy collar, and whispered in the young man's ear: "You were the one Want to protect me?"
"I thought that person was an assassin." Ji Qingzhou whispered.
The smile in Li Zhan's eyes grew stronger, and he said in a low voice, "There are hidden guards following, don't be suspicious."
Hearing this, Ji Qingzhou subconsciously raised his eyes and looked around, finally heaving a sigh of relief.
After he relaxed a little, thinking of the previous scene, he only felt a little more awkward.
The Jiaofang Division is two streets away from here. Ji Qingzhou kept an eye on the storefronts on the side of the road while walking, and finally saw the medical clinic that Tu Dayou told him at an inconspicuous street corner.The medical clinic didn't even have a serious frontage, it just hung a wooden sign on the corner of the street, with a broken line drawn on the wooden sign, and an arrow at the end of the broken line, indicating to go inside.
That is to say, the medical clinic is not on the street, it has to turn into an alley.
Ji Qingzhou thought to himself, how to avoid the regent and go to the medical clinic?
Seeing the young man looking around, Li Zhan was a little absent-minded. His eyes fell on the food stalls on the street for a while, and the noodle restaurants on the side of the road for a while.
Li Zhan raised his eyebrows, thinking to himself, is he hungry?
"Want to eat?" Li Zhan asked.
"Yeah." Ji Qingzhou answered absent-mindedly, and then realized.
However, Li Zhan had already led him into a noodle booth by the side of the road, and asked for two bowls of noodles.
Ji Qingzhou wanted to say that he was not hungry, but when he smelled the scent of noodles from the neighbor, he immediately swallowed his saliva.
"You didn't often eat on the side of the road before, did you?" Li Zhan looked at the boy and asked.
"It's not..." Ji Qingzhou remembered that he used to eat barbecue on the side of the road, but since Ji Qingzhou in the original book came from a scholarly family, he probably had never done such a thing as eating noodles on the side of the road, so he said: " I haven't eaten much...it smells delicious."
Sitting on a bench by the side of the road, Li Zhan looked at the streets with people coming and going, and said, "I haven't eaten much before... Sometimes when I think about it, the days of rich food and clothing have been passed for a long time. It’s also very boring, but I’m looking forward to this kind of fireworks.”
Ji Qingzhou secretly thought, isn't this a high-end Versailles?
But Ji Qingzhou thought about it again, Li Zhan was exhausted all day long, and he had never even talked about love in the original book, which is quite pitiful when he thinks about it.Outsiders may think that the status of one person under one person and above ten thousand people is enviable, but if you really think about it from Li Zhan's perspective, maybe his life is really boring.
"If brother likes...we can go out and hang out often in the future." Ji Qingzhou said.
Li Zhan was startled when he heard the words, and looked at Ji Qingzhou with a somewhat unclear look in his eyes.
"Come on, two bowls of noodles." The waiter came over with hot noodles and said, "Two gentlemen, take it easy."
Ji Qingzhou took the chopsticks and handed them to Li Zhan before he started eating.
That side is very strong, and although the taste is not as good as Xiao Shan's craftsmanship, it is not bad.Ji Qingzhou buried his head and ate half of the bowl in one breath, but when he looked up, he found that Li Zhan hadn't eaten all the time, so he just looked at him fixedly.
"Why doesn't brother eat?" Ji Qingzhou asked.
"It's enough to see you eat." Li Zhan said with a faint smile.
Ji Qingzhou was a little embarrassed, and was about to put down his chopsticks, but Li Zhan pushed his bowl of noodles over and said, "It's all for you. I see that you have eaten less recently, and your stomach is always growling. ..."
"Uh..." Ji Qingzhou said with some embarrassment: "I'm afraid of getting fat if I eat too much."
"There's nothing wrong with being fatter." Li Zhan stretched out his hand to squeeze his wrist, and said, "In case you are skinny now, those who don't know think Yinghui Pavilion can't take care of your food."
Ji Qingzhou was a little helpless, but he was really not full at the moment, so he didn't refuse, and ate Li Zhan's side as well.
When Ji Qingzhou was full, Li Zhan took him to a teahouse diagonally across the street.
The decoration of the tea house looks low-key, but very elegant.
As soon as they entered, a waiter came up to greet them, and Li Zhan said, "I have an appointment with the young man who just came in."
Hearing this, the man took the two of them up to the second floor.
Ji Qingzhou looked surprised, and then realized that Li Zhan brought him here to eat noodles to wait for someone...
Sitting in the private room on the second floor was a young man in his twenties. The young man was dressed in an apricot-colored gown. He looked gentle and elegant, and his appearance was outstanding, with a bit of a scholarly air.
"My lord." Seeing Li Zhan coming in, the young man got up and saluted.
Li Zhan waved his hand to indicate that there is no need to be too polite, and then said to Ji Qingzhou, "This is Chizhou, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple."
Ji Qingzhou didn't expect that Li Zhan would introduce this person to him, so he hurriedly bowed to him, and introduced himself: "Yinghui Pavilion, Ji Qingzhou."
"So it's Young Master Ji..." Chizhou was stunned when he heard the words, but didn't say much, and poured tea for Li Zhan and Ji Qingzhou with his own hands.
Ji Qingzhou wanted to take the teapot, but was stopped by Li Zhan, signaling him not to restrain himself.
When Chizhou saw that Ji Qingzhou and Li Zhan came in together, he knew it well, and didn't dare to let Ji Qingzhou do it.
"My lord's orders have already been verified by the officials. The jade, silk, tea, and even rouge and gouache bought by the palace in recent years are all as the lord expected, and they have been sucked out of them." Chi Zhou said. Said: "The price of all the utensils purchased in the palace has always fluctuated. Although the internal servants have supervision, they will not go into the details just because of small discrepancies, so no one has reported this matter."
Li Zhan said: "Or someone found out, but thought it would be better to have less than one thing, so they didn't mention it."
Chizhou glanced at Ji Qingzhou, and said: "The hands and feet are all moved outside the palace. The internal servant doesn't know who stretched out the hand behind him, so naturally he dare not offend easily, but it is reasonable."
Ji Qingzhou was confused, which meant that Li Zhan asked Chizhou to investigate the purchases in the palace. Chizhou found out that there was something tricky in it, and the main people involved were people outside the palace.But the Secretary of Internal Affairs is also responsible for his negligence, but Chizhou saw him present, so he smoothed things over.
Ji Qingzhou secretly thought, this matter is also a secret, right?
Li Zhan is going to punish someone, who is it...
No, such a confidential matter, why did you say it in front of him?
"Don't act rashly, just make a file of what you have verified and send it to Yinghui Pavilion. Don't alarm anyone, and don't let anyone know that you are doing this." Li Zhan said.
"Aren't you impeached in the name of Dali Temple?" Chizhou asked.
Li Zhan said: "Wait a little longer, the time has not come yet."
Chi Zhou nodded and asked, "How long will it take?"
"At the end of June..." Li Zhan said.
When Chizhou heard the words, he didn't make another sound.
At the end of June... Ji Qingzhou thought about it, and always felt that there was something profound about this day, but he didn't think clearly for a while.
Li Zhan talked about some details with Chizhou, and Ji Qingzhou listened silently, sweating coldly while listening.
Although he didn't know who Li Zhan was going to punish, but according to Li Zhan's deployment and arrangement, if Li Zhan used Chizhou's hand to attack, the other party probably wouldn't be able to fight back.
The two talked for a long while, and Chizhou responded to Li Zhan's orders one by one, and then got up to leave.
"Wait..." Li Zhan stopped him suddenly.
"What else does the lord want?" Chizhou asked.
"Borrow the waist card for use." Li Zhan said.
Chizhou didn't know why, but he took off his badge and handed it to Li Zhan.
"Let's make up another one, this one is reserved for me." Li Zhan said.
Chizhou didn't ask why, he saluted him, nodded slightly to Ji Qingzhou, and then left.
After Chizhou left, Li Zhan handed the waist badge to Ji Qingzhou, and said, "Take it and use it, the Secretary of Jiaofang is quite polite to the people of Dali Temple."
Ji Qingzhou took the waist card and realized that Li Zhan borrowed it for him. It was to let him go shopping in the name of Chizhou...
It was almost dusk when I came out of the teahouse.
Li Zhan didn't stay this time, and took Ji Qingzhou directly to Jiaofang Division.
Ji Qingzhou was a little apprehensive along the way, and didn't understand why Li Zhan took him to see Chizhou.
Li Zhan noticed Ji Qingzhou's uneasiness, and whispered in his ear: "After Chizhou's dossier is delivered, you can help me check the internal servants. Since you want to play, then play with the bottom line, it will be interesting. ,Right?"
Ji Qingzhou turned to look at Li Zhan, and saw the man's eyes were deep, and there was a smile on his face, but there was a fierceness that could not be ignored.Ji Qingzhou secretly rejoiced that he was standing on this boat, otherwise... he would definitely die a miserable death.
Moreover, Li Zhan actually entrusted him with such an important matter, which Ji Qingzhou did not expect before.
After the two arrived at the Jiaofang Division, someone came to check the badge.
The visitor saw that Ji Qingzhou was holding the badge of Dali Temple, and invited him in very politely.
Ji Qingzhou came to this kind of place for the first time, and only then did he know that the Jiaofang Division of the Dayu Dynasty is quite complicated, like a high-end club in modern society, and it is a membership system, ordinary consumers cannot enter.It's just that their membership cards are waist cards, and only high-ranking officials in the court can "consume" in Jiaofangsi.
And there are quite a lot of tricks in this Jiaofang Division. There are singing and dancing performances to satisfy those guests who just want to enjoy their eyes, and there are also projects themed on poetry, books, rituals and music to satisfy those more refined literati. Of course, the most popular It is still an indescribable project, and the service providers are both male and female, and they are very considerate.
Ji Qingzhou doesn't understand anything, and doesn't know how to find someone.
Could it be that the bustard was called over and asked directly where my sister was?
Fortunately, Li Zhan seemed much calmer than him, so he called a leader's mother over and asked a few words in a low voice.That mother was very knowledgable, she guessed Li Zhan's preferences as soon as she heard Li Zhan's words, and said, "Our Jiaofang Secretary only recruited a few new girls this year, and one of them really meets the requirements of the young master. ..."
"Just what?" Ji Qingzhou asked nervously.
"It's just that our Jiaofang Division is a place that abides by the rules. Girls under the age of sixteen are not allowed to pick up guests. The new girl happens to be born today, so I have to follow the rules in a while. Can the young master win the girl's favor? , then it depends on the young master himself." The mother said.
Li Zhan chuckled lightly when he heard the words, and threw a piece of silver to the other party.
The mother immediately beamed with joy, and said: "The best private seat tonight, I will reserve it for you first."
After the man left, Ji Qingzhou asked: "The person she said is..."
"The Secretary of Jiaofang is not allowed to recruit people privately. Among the people sent in this year, she is the only one who is under 16 years old." Li Zhan said.
Ji Qingzhou breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the words, and asked, "Then what is the rule she said?"
"The one with the highest price gets it." Li Zhan said succinctly.
Ji Qingzhou understood in an instant that this was tantamount to an auction...
Fortunately, they came at a good time, if they wait until tomorrow, it will be too late.
Thinking of this, Ji Qingzhou couldn't help but glance at Li Zhan, secretly thinking that Li Zhan specially asked him to come here today, did he already know about it?
"We'll have to wait a while, you're too nervous." Li Zhan glanced at Ji Qingzhou, got up and said, "Is this your first time? I'll show you around."
Ji Qingzhou secretly thought that I, an eunuch, have nothing to see in this kind of place, but he thought that he would have to rely on Li Zhan for a while, and he couldn't refuse, so he got up and followed Li Zhan to the second floor of Jiaofangsi.
"Young master is so handsome..." When a girl saw Ji Qingzhou, she leaned over and reached out to pinch his face.
Ji Qingzhou dodged embarrassingly, and seeing those girls were all handsome and cute, he couldn't help feeling a little sorry for what happened to them.
Most of the women who can be used as official prostitutes are women from rich families. They used to grow up in rich clothes and rich food, but now they are reduced to this point.Of course, Ji Qingzhou's regret has nothing to do with family status, even if a woman from a poor family has suffered so far, he feels very sorry.
Ji Qingzhou is good-looking and looks very friendly, and the girls passing by will take advantage of him half-truthfully.Seeing that shy look, everyone became more and more serious, teasing him one after another.
However, Ji Qingzhou now has no desires or desires, and his heart is open and frank. Apart from being a little embarrassed at the beginning, he also relaxes later, and frequently greets the girls who are friendly to him.
Li Zhan was speechless, so he had to block Ji Qingzhou behind him and walked quickly through the corridor.
"They are all..." Ji Qingzhou walked behind Li Zhan, just about to start asking questions, but Li Zhan stopped, turned around and hugged Ji Qingzhou, then pushed him to the railing, holding his neck with one hand Push him against the railing.
Ji Qingzhou was taken aback, only to feel that Li Zhan approached him suddenly, with the posture of intending to kiss him.
Ji Qingzhou's mind was blank, her heart was pounding, her hands subconsciously grabbed Li Zhan's clothes, but she didn't know whether to push him away.
Ji Qingzhou's first reaction was, the lord won't be hit by another trick, he wants someone in public, right?
Ji Qingzhou's face turned pale with fright, but he was pressed against the railing, and he didn't dare to struggle for fear of falling.
"Don't move, I have acquaintances." Li Zhan said in a low voice, leaning on the young man's neck.
Li Zhan's warm breath fell on the young man's ears, causing the young man to breathe disorderly.
It was only later that Ji Qingzhou realized that since this is the Jiaofang Secretary, and the guests who come here are all officials, there must be those who go to court every day. Li Zhan should have a high chance of meeting acquaintances here.He didn't think of such an important matter in advance, Ji Qingzhou couldn't help being a little annoyed when he thought about it, and secretly thought that he was too careless.
At the same time, Ji Qingzhou heard a man and a woman making fun of each other.The two passed by Ji Qingzhou and Li Zhan while teasing and laughing. The woman couldn't help smiling when she saw the two men hugging each other.
Ji Qingzhou was afraid that the man would stick his head over to look, if he and Li Zhan were recognized, wouldn't that be a disaster?
Thinking of this, Ji Qingzhou put his arms around Li Zhan's neck, and moved his head closer to Li Zhan's neck.

"Yeah." Ji Qingzhou answered absent-mindedly, and then realized.
However, Li Zhan had already led him into a noodle booth by the side of the road, and asked for two bowls of noodles.
Ji Qingzhou wanted to say that he was not hungry, but when he smelled the scent of noodles from the neighbor, he immediately swallowed his saliva.
"You didn't often eat on the side of the road before, did you?" Li Zhan looked at the boy and asked.
"It's not..." Ji Qingzhou remembered that he used to eat barbecue on the side of the road, but since Ji Qingzhou in the original book came from a scholarly family, he probably had never done such a thing as eating noodles on the side of the road, so he said: " I haven't eaten much...it smells delicious."
Sitting on a bench by the side of the road, Li Zhan looked at the streets with people coming and going, and said, "I haven't eaten much before... Sometimes when I think about it, the days of rich food and clothing have been passed for a long time. It’s also very boring, but I’m looking forward to this kind of fireworks.”
Ji Qingzhou secretly thought, isn't this a high-end Versailles?
But Ji Qingzhou thought about it again, Li Zhan was exhausted all day long, and he had never even talked about love in the original book, which is quite pitiful when he thinks about it.Outsiders may think that the status of one person under one person and above ten thousand people is enviable, but if you really think about it from Li Zhan's perspective, maybe his life is really boring.
"If brother likes...we can go out and hang out often in the future." Ji Qingzhou said.
Li Zhan was startled when he heard the words, and looked at Ji Qingzhou with a somewhat unclear look in his eyes.
"Come on, two bowls of noodles." The waiter came over with hot noodles and said, "Two gentlemen, take it easy."
Ji Qingzhou took the chopsticks and handed them to Li Zhan before he started eating.
That side is very strong, and although the taste is not as good as Xiao Shan's craftsmanship, it is not bad.Ji Qingzhou buried his head and ate half of the bowl in one breath, but when he looked up, he found that Li Zhan hadn't eaten all the time, so he just looked at him fixedly.
"Why doesn't brother eat?" Ji Qingzhou asked.
"It's enough to see you eat." Li Zhan said with a faint smile.
Ji Qingzhou was a little embarrassed, and was about to put down his chopsticks, but Li Zhan pushed his bowl of noodles over and said, "It's all for you. I see that you have eaten less recently, and your stomach is always growling. ..."
"Uh..." Ji Qingzhou said with some embarrassment: "I'm afraid of getting fat if I eat too much."
"There's nothing wrong with being fatter." Li Zhan stretched out his hand to squeeze his wrist, and said, "In case you are skinny now, those who don't know think Yinghui Pavilion can't take care of your food."
Ji Qingzhou was a little helpless, but he was really not full at the moment, so he didn't refuse, and ate Li Zhan's side as well.
When Ji Qingzhou was full, Li Zhan took him to a teahouse diagonally across the street.
The decoration of the tea house looks low-key, but very elegant.
As soon as they entered, a waiter came up to greet them, and Li Zhan said, "I have an appointment with the young man who just came in."
Hearing this, the man took the two of them up to the second floor.
Ji Qingzhou looked surprised, and then realized that Li Zhan brought him here to eat noodles to wait for someone...
Sitting in the private room on the second floor was a young man in his twenties. The young man was dressed in an apricot-colored gown. He looked gentle and elegant, and his appearance was outstanding, with a bit of a scholarly air.
"My lord." Seeing Li Zhan coming in, the young man got up and saluted.
Li Zhan waved his hand to indicate that there is no need to be too polite, and then said to Ji Qingzhou, "This is Chizhou, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple."
Ji Qingzhou didn't expect that Li Zhan would introduce this person to him, so he hurriedly bowed to him, and introduced himself: "Yinghui Pavilion, Ji Qingzhou."
"So it's Young Master Ji..." Chizhou was stunned when he heard the words, but didn't say much, and poured tea for Li Zhan and Ji Qingzhou with his own hands.
Ji Qingzhou wanted to take the teapot, but was stopped by Li Zhan, signaling him not to restrain himself.
When Chizhou saw that Ji Qingzhou and Li Zhan came in together, he knew it well, and didn't dare to let Ji Qingzhou do it.
"My lord's orders have already been verified by the officials. The jade, silk, tea, and even rouge and gouache bought by the palace in recent years are all as the lord expected, and they have been sucked out of them." Chi Zhou said. Said: "The price of all the utensils purchased in the palace has always fluctuated. Although the internal servants have supervision, they will not go into the details just because of small discrepancies, so no one has reported this matter."
Li Zhan said: "Or someone found out, but thought it would be better to have less than one thing, so they didn't mention it."
Chizhou glanced at Ji Qingzhou, and said: "The hands and feet are all moved outside the palace. The internal servant doesn't know who stretched out the hand behind him, so naturally he dare not offend easily, but it is reasonable."
Ji Qingzhou was confused, which meant that Li Zhan asked Chizhou to investigate the purchases in the palace. Chizhou found out that there was something tricky in it, and the main people involved were people outside the palace.But the Secretary of Internal Affairs is also responsible for his negligence, but Chizhou saw him present, so he smoothed things over.
Ji Qingzhou secretly thought, this matter is also a secret, right?
Li Zhan is going to punish someone, who is it...
No, such a confidential matter, why did you say it in front of him?
"Don't act rashly, just make a file of what you have verified and send it to Yinghui Pavilion. Don't alarm anyone, and don't let anyone know that you are doing this." Li Zhan said.
"Aren't you impeached in the name of Dali Temple?" Chizhou asked.
Li Zhan said: "Wait a little longer, the time has not come yet."
Chi Zhou nodded and asked, "How long will it take?"
"At the end of June..." Li Zhan said.
When Chizhou heard the words, he didn't make another sound.
At the end of June... Ji Qingzhou thought about it, and always felt that there was something profound about this day, but he didn't think clearly for a while.
Li Zhan talked about some details with Chizhou, and Ji Qingzhou listened silently, sweating coldly while listening.
Although he didn't know who Li Zhan was going to punish, but according to Li Zhan's deployment and arrangement, if Li Zhan used Chizhou's hand to attack, the other party probably wouldn't be able to fight back.
The two talked for a long while, and Chizhou responded to Li Zhan's orders one by one, and then got up to leave.
"Wait..." Li Zhan stopped him suddenly.
"What else does the lord want?" Chizhou asked.
"Borrow the waist card for use." Li Zhan said.
Chizhou didn't know why, but he took off his badge and handed it to Li Zhan.
"Let's make up another one, this one is reserved for me." Li Zhan said.
Chizhou didn't ask why, he saluted him, nodded slightly to Ji Qingzhou, and then left.
After Chizhou left, Li Zhan handed the waist badge to Ji Qingzhou, and said, "Take it and use it, the Secretary of Jiaofang is quite polite to the people of Dali Temple."
Ji Qingzhou took the waist card and realized that Li Zhan borrowed it for him. It was to let him go shopping in the name of Chizhou...
It was almost dusk when I came out of the teahouse.
Li Zhan didn't stay this time, and took Ji Qingzhou directly to Jiaofang Division.
Ji Qingzhou was a little apprehensive along the way, and didn't understand why Li Zhan took him to see Chizhou.
Li Zhan noticed Ji Qingzhou's uneasiness, and whispered in his ear: "After Chizhou's dossier is delivered, you can help me check the internal servants. Since you want to play, then play with the bottom line, it will be interesting. ,Right?"
Ji Qingzhou turned to look at Li Zhan, and saw the man's eyes were deep, and there was a smile on his face, but there was a fierceness that could not be ignored.Ji Qingzhou secretly rejoiced that he was standing on this boat, otherwise... he would definitely die a miserable death.
Moreover, Li Zhan actually entrusted him with such an important matter, which Ji Qingzhou did not expect before.
After the two arrived at the Jiaofang Division, someone came to check the badge.
The visitor saw that Ji Qingzhou was holding the badge of Dali Temple, and invited him in very politely.
Ji Qingzhou came to this kind of place for the first time, and only then did he know that the Jiaofang Division of the Dayu Dynasty is quite complicated, like a high-end club in modern society, and it is a membership system, ordinary consumers cannot enter.It's just that their membership cards are waist cards, and only high-ranking officials in the court can "consume" in Jiaofangsi.
And there are quite a lot of tricks in this Jiaofang Division. There are singing and dancing performances to satisfy those guests who just want to enjoy their eyes, and there are also projects themed on poetry, books, rituals and music to satisfy those more refined literati. Of course, the most popular It is still an indescribable project, and the service providers are both male and female, and they are very considerate.
Ji Qingzhou doesn't understand anything, and doesn't know how to find someone.
Could it be that the bustard was called over and asked directly where my sister was?
Fortunately, Li Zhan seemed much calmer than him, so he called a leader's mother over and asked a few words in a low voice.That mother was very knowledgable, she guessed Li Zhan's preferences as soon as she heard Li Zhan's words, and said, "Our Jiaofang Secretary only recruited a few new girls this year, and one of them really meets the requirements of the young master. ..."
"Just what?" Ji Qingzhou asked nervously.
"It's just that our Jiaofang Division is a place that abides by the rules. Girls under the age of sixteen are not allowed to pick up guests. The new girl happens to be born today, so I have to follow the rules in a while. Can the young master win the girl's favor? , then it depends on the young master himself." The mother said.
Li Zhan chuckled lightly when he heard the words, and threw a piece of silver to the other party.
The mother immediately beamed with joy, and said: "The best private seat tonight, I will reserve it for you first."
After the man left, Ji Qingzhou asked: "The person she said is..."
"The Secretary of Jiaofang is not allowed to recruit people privately. Among the people sent in this year, she is the only one who is under 16 years old." Li Zhan said.
Ji Qingzhou breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the words, and asked, "Then what is the rule she said?"
"The one with the highest price gets it." Li Zhan said succinctly.
Ji Qingzhou understood in an instant that this was tantamount to an auction...
Fortunately, they came at a good time, if they wait until tomorrow, it will be too late.
Thinking of this, Ji Qingzhou couldn't help but glance at Li Zhan, secretly thinking that Li Zhan specially asked him to come here today, did he already know about it?
"We'll have to wait a while, you're too nervous." Li Zhan glanced at Ji Qingzhou, got up and said, "Is this your first time? I'll show you around."
Ji Qingzhou secretly thought that I, an eunuch, have nothing to see in this kind of place, but he thought that he would have to rely on Li Zhan for a while, and he couldn't refuse, so he got up and followed Li Zhan to the second floor of Jiaofangsi.
"Young master is so handsome..." When a girl saw Ji Qingzhou, she leaned over and reached out to pinch his face.
Ji Qingzhou dodged embarrassingly, and seeing those girls were all handsome and cute, he couldn't help feeling a little sorry for what happened to them.
Most of the women who can be used as official prostitutes are women from rich families. They used to grow up in rich clothes and rich food, but now they are reduced to this point.Of course, Ji Qingzhou's regret has nothing to do with family status, even if a woman from a poor family has suffered so far, he feels very sorry.
Ji Qingzhou is good-looking and looks very friendly, and the girls passing by will take advantage of him half-truthfully.Seeing that shy look, everyone became more and more serious, teasing him one after another.
However, Ji Qingzhou now has no desires or desires, and his heart is open and frank. Apart from being a little embarrassed at the beginning, he also relaxes later, and frequently greets the girls who are friendly to him.
Li Zhan was speechless, so he had to block Ji Qingzhou behind him and walked quickly through the corridor.
"They are all..." Ji Qingzhou walked behind Li Zhan, just about to start asking questions, but Li Zhan stopped, turned around and hugged Ji Qingzhou, then pushed him to the railing, holding his neck with one hand Push him against the railing.
Ji Qingzhou was taken aback, only to feel that Li Zhan approached him suddenly, with the posture of intending to kiss him.
Ji Qingzhou's mind was blank, her heart was pounding, her hands subconsciously grabbed Li Zhan's clothes, but she didn't know whether to push him away.
Ji Qingzhou's first reaction was, the lord won't be hit by another trick, he wants someone in public, right?
Ji Qingzhou's face turned pale with fright, but he was pressed against the railing, and he didn't dare to struggle for fear of falling.
"Don't move, I have acquaintances." Li Zhan said in a low voice, leaning on the young man's neck.
Li Zhan's warm breath fell on the young man's ears, causing the young man to breathe disorderly.
It was only later that Ji Qingzhou realized that since this is the Jiaofang Secretary, and the guests who come here are all officials, there must be those who go to court every day. Li Zhan should have a high chance of meeting acquaintances here.He didn't think of such an important matter in advance, Ji Qingzhou couldn't help being a little annoyed when he thought about it, and secretly thought that he was too careless.
At the same time, Ji Qingzhou heard a man and a woman making fun of each other.The two passed by Ji Qingzhou and Li Zhan while teasing and laughing. The woman couldn't help smiling when she saw the two men hugging each other.
Ji Qingzhou was afraid that the man would stick his head over to look, if he and Li Zhan were recognized, wouldn't that be a disaster?
Thinking of this, Ji Qingzhou put his arms around Li Zhan's neck, and moved his head closer to Li Zhan's neck.
