Chapter 284 Red Light Street
"You two have a lot of work to do today, so being petty is disrespectful."
Princess Ankang said to the two officials.
Yu'er also cooperated and handed them two pieces of broken silver.
The weight of silver taels is not much, that is, three taels per person.
But Princess Ankang had inquired before, and their monthly payment was just like this.
Of course, in addition to the monthly salary on the surface, their official uniforms can also earn them a lot of money.
But from a mental point of view, Princess Ankang's gift was already very generous.
They were just accompanying Princess Ankang around today, so their errands were a bit boring.
But one day's worth of boring errands can be exchanged for a month's worth of money, and both officials are happy to do so.
However, they knew that Princess Ankang had an extraordinary status. Although they were tempted, they did not dare to accept her for a while.
Seeing their hesitation, Princess Ankang immediately said considerately:
"I have learned a lot of interesting knowledge from you two today, so this should be a thank you gift from me."
"Please don't despise the courtesy, both of you."
Seeing that Princess Ankang had already mentioned this, the two detectives did not dare to refuse any more, so they immediately handed over their hands and thanked them:
"Thank you, Miss, for the reward."
After receiving the reward, the two officials were even more pleased with Princess Ankang.
After walking together for a day today, they discovered that although this young lady had an extraordinary temperament, she had no sense of superiority at all, and her attitude towards them was also very easy-going, which was completely different from the young masters and ladies they had met before.
In the end, I gave them such a thoughtful gift, how could I not make them feel good about it.
Princess Ankang and Princess Yuanan left the Wannian County Government Office accompanied by the recording eunuch and the colorful eunuch.
Princess Yuan'an looked at Princess Ankang, looking a little thoughtful.
When she dismissed the two officials today, she didn't give them any rewards.
Originally she was not willing to investigate the case, so she just walked around casually during the day. Although she also visited the case, she mostly inquired about the oiran parade tonight.
It’s not that Princess Yuanan doesn’t understand this, she just doesn’t think it’s necessary.
It's just a minor official difference between two county governments. I may never see him again in this life, so why bother so much.
After all, Princess Yuan'an is the Queen's legitimate daughter. She has always met people who are either rich or noble, so her horizons are exceptionally high.
This cannot be said to be her fault, but a habit that is innate and has been developed for a long time.
It is difficult for ordinary people to win the eyes of Princess Yuanan.
Wannian County Government Office is not far from Dongshi, and it only takes a quarter of an hour to walk.
And now it's getting dark, but the flow of people on the streets continues unabated.
These are people who have been busy for a day, rushing to go home to eat, and rushing to spend a lot of money.
Most of the people who came out of the bustling Fangshi went home.
In the opposite direction, people rush to start the nightlife.
In bustling markets like those, buying a house there is not cheap.
Moreover, it is not very convenient to live in that kind of place, because there is no quiet time from morning to night.
And compared to selling residences, it is obviously more profitable to convert them into shops.
Therefore, there are not many people living in the markets near the East Market. Most of them are people who come to work and consume.
Princess Ankang and Princess Yuanan also followed the flow of people to Dongshi.
The two handsome young men quickly attracted the attention of many people.
Especially some of the ladies who were playing together could not take their eyes off Princess Ankang and Princess Yuanan.
Their appearance, as well as the majestic guards behind them, deeply attracted these young ladies who were young and ignorant of the world.
Someone on the road saw through the two princesses' cross-dressing, but no one told them. Instead, they watched with great interest the other ladies who were obsessed with these two ladies disguised as men.
People are committing nymphomaniacs, there is no need to burst this bubble, just to make people unhappy.
As long as there is no harm, a little illusion can bring great happiness, and it is worth it.
And those with a little experience can quickly see through the clumsy disguises of Princess Ankang and Princess Yuanan.
None of them have systematically learned the skills of disguise.
This is a university subject, and Manager Shang has shown his skills in front of Li Xuan before.
The parade of oirans is a famous sight in the capital. It will inevitably make some girls curious about what these oirans who make men linger look like.
In addition, the atmosphere in Daxing is relatively open, and girls with better family conditions can go out to play together even at night.
Of course, they will be accompanied by guards.
When they are together, it is also to concentrate the power of the guards and give them a greater sense of security.
After all, few women are successful in martial arts, and they will inevitably suffer losses when encountering conflicts.
When it comes to an unreasonable dandy, the family backgrounds of several girls combined can be enough to defeat him.
However, due to the special ethos of Daxing, if a man bullies a weak woman in public, he will be attacked by a group and then handed over to Wuhou who patrols the streets.
This is not a matter of punishment or not, the main issue is humiliation.
Anyone who does such a thing will be laughed at for the rest of his life.
Of course, this is when the other party is a weak woman.
If the woman is also strong, she can compete fairly and resolve disputes, and outsiders will never interfere.
But regardless of the outcome, both sides will be applauded and encouraged.
In the final analysis, martial arts are promoted in Daxing, and there is no distinction between men and women.
As long as you have the ability, no matter you are a man or a woman, you can go on stage and show off your arms.
But if you use your power to bully others, you will never be tolerated by people of the same class.
Forget it once or twice. If you do it every day, it will only make people look down upon you.
No matter how many times you have heard this kind of thing, it is more tangible to experience it yourself.
Li Xuan lay on Princess Ankang's shoulder, curiously looking at the endless flow of people, feeling the so-called great atmosphere.
At least, Li Xuan felt that the atmosphere in the capital was quite relaxed. Everyone looked like the country was peaceful and the people were at peace, and there was no such gloomy mood.
When they came to the East Market, the bell heralding the closing of the market sounded. It seemed that they had arrived at the right time.
Today's Dongshi is obviously different from yesterday.
The main street that runs through the east and west gates is filled with beautiful red lanterns, making the entire sky bright red.
Along the way, a gorgeous stage was placed at the entrance of every brothel, and it was still being decorated in a hurry.
These stages will later carry oirans from each family for a grand parade.
Each stage has its own unique style, each has its own merits, and obviously has its own theme.
The Dongshi Street intersection, which is about to close, is much busier than the one they visited yesterday, and the street is almost blocked by people everywhere.
There are still many people going into Dongshi.
"It's so lively!"
Even though she had seen Dongshi in the daytime, Princess Yuanan couldn't help but exclaim.
Princess Ankang also looked at the crowd of people in front of her with bright eyes.
They were guarded by Hanai Tai, so they squeezed out a space in the crowd.
Princess Ankang and Princess Yuanan did not suffer any crowding at all.
They walked along this red light street and watched it like a leisurely stroll.
Tonight, every brothel tried their best to decorate their homes beautifully.
There are even more vendors on the road than during the day.
I'm afraid because today is the day when oirans parade through the streets, they specially opened an extra stall for the evening.
Judging from the flow of people tonight, they are probably willing to work overtime.
As long as you make more money, what does it matter if you work one night?
Princess Ankang and Princess Yuanan walked along the red light street and saw the bustling East Market at night.
Just from what passers-by were saying, it would take half an hour before the oiran parade could start.
"Sister, why don't we find a place to sit for a while."
Princess Yuan'an shouted in Princess Ankang's ear.
The surrounding sounds are too noisy. If you don't shout, the other party can't hear what you say.
Princess Ankang nodded and began to look for a suitable place to take a rest and use it as a place to stay tonight.
No matter how energetic they are, they can't play in the streets all night, so they have to find a place to sleep in advance.
There are so many people in Dongshi tonight. If we don't make arrangements early, I'm afraid there won't be anywhere to sleep.
They searched along the street, but they all felt that something was not suitable.
The young ladies soliciting customers on the road are much more enthusiastic than during the day.
Because of this enthusiasm, the fabric on their bodies also decreased a lot.
Princess Ankang and Princess Yuanan were blushing when they saw her on the street.
Moreover, these young ladies in cool clothes were enthusiastic towards everyone along the way, but they turned a blind eye to Princess Ankang and Princess Yuanan.
Li Xuan knew that the two girls were too clumsy in disguising themselves as men, and these sharp-eyed young ladies noticed it.
Some places are not suitable for receiving female customers, so they simply do not solicit them.
They also tried to follow them into some busy places, but they were politely invited out, saying that it was not convenient for them to be invited in.
Their family members knew about their own affairs, and they also knew that their disguise was not hidden from others, so it was not easy to get entangled too much.
When she reached the crossroads of Dongshi, Princess Ankang's eyes suddenly lit up, she pointed to a store in front and said:
"Yuanan, what do you think of that house?"
Everyone looked in the direction Princess Ankang pointed, and saw a sign with flying dragons and phoenixes.
【Hu Yulou】
"Hey, isn't this a place?"
Apparently Princess Yuanan was also impressed by the name on the sign.
I heard what Zhao Si said before that the conflict between him and Hou San was because they both fell in love with a new Hu Ji in Hu Yulou.
And the Hu Yulou mentioned by Zhao Si should be this one.
"How about giving it a try?"
Princess Ankang suggested.
The two of them are also afraid of being rejected now, and they don't know if this family will accept them.
As a result, Princess Ankang and Princess Yuanan received a warm reception as soon as they walked to the door of Hu Yulou.
A group of blond-haired and blue-eyed Hu Ji, wearing transparent gauze, surged up like a tide and surrounded Princess Ankang and Princess Yuanan.
These Hu Ji originally wanted to stick their dazzlingly white bodies on them, but they were stopped by the eunuchs in colorful clothes.
These orchids had obviously also received distinguished guests with escorts. They followed the rules and did not dare to go forward. Instead, they gathered around a few steps away and greeted them with yawning eyes.
"What two handsome gentlemen!"
"You two gentlemen, would you like to come in and play games together? Our bed in Hu Yulou is very soft."
"If you two gentlemen like to be quiet, there is a private room prepared for absolute quietness."
The orchids all spoke fluent Mandarin, which made Li Xuan feel confused.
Li Xuan had heard that there was a vast Western Region to the west of Daxing.
That's where these Orchids come from.
There are many tribes in the Western Regions, just like these Orchids in front of me, some have blond hair and blue eyes, some have wheat complexion, and some have white hair and silver eyes...
If you were to distinguish them by the color of their pupils, you could probably count a few of them among these orchids.
Therefore, they are also called Semu people by the people of Daxing.
What's even more outrageous is that the physical characteristics of these Hu Ji are somewhat different from those of the Daxing women. All of them have exaggerated curves, which makes the two girls silently feel inferior.
Neither Princess Ankang nor Princess Yuanan noticed that their eyes had been glued to the breasts and buttocks of these Hu Ji unconsciously, and they could not move away.
It seems that the appeal of some things is unisex.
Thank you all book friends for your monthly support.
I’m used to big screens, and I’m almost going blind when I look at a mobile phone screen!
