[Main Wenshu] Beifeng Nanzhi

"Have you made a decision?" Zhuge Shenhou asked her this way when Zhui Ming brought Qi Qi back to Shenhou Mansion in the evening.

"I want...to stay in the capital." Qi Qi replied.

This answer seemed to be beyond Zhuge Shenhou's expectations, but Zhui Ming, who was still standing beside Qi Qi at the moment, showed a thoughtful expression, he seemed to want to say something, but swallowed it again.Zhuge Shenhou twirled his beard, observed the expression in Qi Qi's eyes, and found that there was a firmness in this girl's harmless eyes like a bird, and the will of a person with this expression is not easy to be shaken.

It's just that he thought that with a character like Qi Qi's, he should love mountains and forests more than fame, and he didn't know what drove her to make such a decision.

Although he was a little confused, he didn't ask, and it was the same when he asked Zhui Ming about these things later. He just followed the care in the random letter and said, "Your master said that if you choose to stay in the capital, you have to know Some people are so sophisticated, she bought property in the capital a few years ago, and now it can help you get familiar with the environment of the capital, and if you make good use of it, you can also use this to gain a firm foothold."

Since casually intends to be a worldly expert who teaches apprentices, the issue of food and clothing is naturally an element that she needs to consider.She doesn't like a self-sufficient life like farming, so she bought some shops. Although Qi Qi doesn't know much about them, she has heard about them, but she didn't expect such shops to exist in this capital where every inch of land is expensive.

"I don't know what type of industry it is?" Qi Qi asked curiously.

Zhuge Shenhou showed a helpless smile, and he replied gently, "She asked you to be the boss of Zhuyuexuan."

Qi Qi didn't react yet, but Zhui Ming was so startled by the answer that he almost jumped up, "What? Zhuyuexuan?"

"It's Zhuyuexuan." Zhuge Shenhou sighed, "My junior sister has been daring to think and act since she was a child, so it's not surprising that I made such a decision."

Seeing their reactions, Qi Qi was even more confused. She looked at Zhui Ming, waiting for an answer from this fellow who knew the culture of the capital very well. Zhui Ming also sighed. Lane is famous."

If the name "Zhuyue" is still confusing, the word "firework" is very directional. Qi Qi's complexion changed, and he said cautiously, "Is... a brothel?"

"There are some differences. Zhuiyuexuan claims that the kabukis in it are performing arts and not selling their bodies, but there are always dignitaries staying there, and the women there will also be bought to be concubines... But if you want to achieve the goal of understanding the three religions and nine streams in the capital, To get a firm foothold in the capital, besides going to a certain force, the fireworks venue is indeed the best way. It’s just..." It’s surprising that Master Shuran dared to take this road.Although Zhui Ming didn't say the rest of the words, his expression had already expressed his heart clearly, and he sighed again, "You may not be used to this kind of life."

Qi Qi didn't immediately express her determination. Suddenly, the young man who coughed several times during a meal and whose eyes seemed to be burning with cold fire appeared in her mind. She knew from Zhui Ming that he was Su Mengzhen, the owner of the Golden Wind and Drizzle Tower who was fighting openly and secretly with Liufenbantang in the capital.

She has never seen such a seriously ill person, because such a person either died of the disease, or was unable to recover from the disease. A patient like him is easy to have the idea that it is better to die immediately when he is sick. The owner of Su also ran to the room with the fire to eat a bowl of wontons.

She didn't know what a huge force was supporting this landlord Su to live like this. Is it love?Is it because he loves the career he wants to do now so much?

"No matter what, go to Zhuyuexuan tomorrow to have a look." Zhuge Shenhou said, "If you regret it..." The thin old man smiled, "I will not tell my junior sister about it."

Qi Qi nodded.

The task of taking Qi Qi to Zhuyuexuan was naturally taken over by Zhui Ming. When he was investigating cases, he often had to go to this type of place to deal with this type of people, so he was familiar with it.It's just that this time, because there is a young girl by his side, when he responds to those girls with heavy makeup, he will inevitably receive some meaningful looks, which makes him a little uncomfortable.

"Here we are," he said, and stopped.

Qi Qi was already suffering from a bit of a headache from the smell of makeup along the way. She rubbed her temples, raised her head, and happened to see the signboard of Zhuyuexuan. , but in line with Zhuyuexuan's claim of being a "clean lady".Zhui Ming led Qi Qi into the Yue Yue Xuan, and a salty scent came to them, separating them from the red and green outside.

"Why is the third master free to come here today?" It is noon now, and it is the time for these amusement places to rest, so the little maid who came to receive her was a little tired, but when she saw Qi Qi I couldn't help being surprised, "Master? Why did you bring a little girl to us?"

This servant girl herself was only fifteen or sixteen years old, so it was a bit strange for her to be called "little girl".However, thinking of her sophistication, this sense of disobedience gradually disappeared.Although she is about the same age as Qi Qi, she knows and experiences much more than Qi Qi.

Qi Qi looked at her, and a fear suddenly appeared in his heart.

Am I going to be like her?Will I become like her if I stay here?

This fear was fleeting, so neither the little maid who caused her fear nor the life chaser beside her noticed it.

"Is Huaniang here?" Zhui Ming asked.Before seeing the random letter yesterday, he had always thought that the head of Yueyue Xuan was Meng Huaqiu whom he was familiar with, but now he knew that there was someone else in charge of this top brothel in Beijing.

"If something unfortunate happens at my door, then I won't be here; if someone wants to date and cheat for drinks, then I won't be here either." Despite saying this, Meng Huaqiu still walked down. She has a slender figure, her raised eyebrows are sharp yet charming, her eyes are full of smiles and vigilance, even if she looks closely, her face is only middle-aged and she is already in her 40s and [-]s At her age, no one who sees her thinks she is not beautiful just because of her poetic posture.What's even more rare is that she is not only beautiful, but also smart, and her martial arts are decent. The men who come to Zhuyuexuan, no matter how big an official or how famous they are, can follow her rules.

To create such a character, you only need to spend a little bit of effort.

Her eyes turned around Qi Qi's face, and then fell on Zhui Ming. She covered her mouth and laughed, and said, "It's just that the old tree at the door has sprouted today. I think it's Something good was going to happen, so no matter how much I was worried about something that would 'keep me out', I came down."

Zhui Ming clasped his fists and said, "Today's event is not a happy event, but it is also a big event. I wonder if Hua Niang has ever heard the name Random?"

"Of course I've heard of it." A light flashed in Meng Huaqiu's eyes, and she turned her head. This time she looked at Qi Qi carefully, and there was more warmth in her eyes. After a while, she sighed With a voice, "So you have grown up so much. Do you remember? I hugged you when you were young."

Qi Qi naturally didn't remember, but when she looked at Meng Huaqiu, she felt a similar emotion to when she saw Qi Hongju, maybe because she also had kindness towards her.But she really didn't remember this person, so she was a little worried that her kindness and tenderness had been given to the wrong person, so she said, "I'm Qi Qi."

"I know." Meng Huaqiu said with a smile, "You are a casual disciple."

Because casually has no reputation in the Jianghu, is not considered a hero, and has no "title", and is too old to be called a "girl", and it is difficult to become a "madam" if she has not married all her life. However, her martial arts background is extremely high, Therefore, the title of her is the most difficult to determine. When talking about her, people who are not in Zizaimen call her by her first name.

Anyway, things like respect are not piled up by titles.

Qi Qi was inexplicably relieved. She showed the voucher that she had given in the letter at will, and after completing some handover work, she was considered to have settled down here completely.Zhuiming helped her carry some luggage and then left, leaving only Qi Qi and Meng Huaqiu.

"Most of the other people in the building are resting, so let me briefly introduce the situation." Meng Huaqiu said, and led Qi Qi upstairs, "Although it has been hard these few years, we can still break through in the Yueyue Pavilion. A little fame...but soon more than a little reputation."

Qi Qi didn't understand what she meant.

Meng Huaqiu smiled mysteriously. When she passed a room around the corner, she stopped and knocked on the door, "Miss Shishi, can I come in?"
