"Stop talking nonsense, just answer whatever I ask!"
Being disturbed by this old bustard, the county magistrate couldn't save his face and quickly ordered the old bustard to stop talking.
"This is Shangshu Kang from Xianyang, and this is our Crown Prince of Great Qin! These are here for the case of missing women in our county. If I ask you anything later, you must answer truthfully!"
"Kang Shangshu? His Highness the Crown Prince?"
Knowing that the two people sitting in front of him were both important people, the old bustard's face visibly froze, and he quickly knelt down and defended himself, "Your Highness the Crown Prince, Master Shangshu, our Xiangmanlou is a serious place, and we do business in an upright manner. , The price is clear and the transaction is fair, but I have never done anything deceptive or deceptive, so you must be aware of it!"
"Last time Ruyu escaped, I did beat her up, but that was because she had a wild man, and she wanted to run away with that wild man, without even giving her a penny to ransom her body! But I just gave her a simple lesson. , not injured at all!”
"And Bai Shao, it was his uncle who sold him in. She couldn't think of it and hit a wall!"
"Then there's Qiu Tao...!"
"Bangdang..."
Before the county magistrate could interrogate him, the madam turned pale and took the initiative to explain everything.
But these things have nothing to do with what they want to ask.
Perhaps seeing the impatient expressions on Kang Anping and Ying Feiyu's faces, the county magistrate quickly knocked on the wood to tell the madam to shut up!
As expected, the madam was so frightened that she trembled all over and almost fell to the ground!
"Are my words falling on deaf ears? I have already said, whatever you ask, you will answer! If you don't ask, don't speak!"
The magistrate shouted sharply.
"Yes, yes, Mr. County Magistrate, just ask!"
This time the madam knew it. She was not sent here for that or anything, but to interrogate him.
"I'm asking you, do you know a man named Mr. Kuan?"
The county magistrate asked with a serious face.
In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on the madam.
She is the only clue they can find. Once she says she doesn't know him, they really don't know what to do!
Perhaps we can only carefully check the names of all the people in the county one by one!
"Master Kuan...?"
The madam frowned and began to think.
"Oh! Are you talking about Brother Kuan?"
After thinking for a long time, the madam suddenly realized.
"Well, that's about it. Tell me quickly, what does this person named Kuan do?"
Seeing that she did not deny it, the county magistrate quickly questioned her.
"Ouch! Sir, who's surnamed Kuan? His surname is Feng, and his name only has the character Kuan!"
The madam waved her fragrant handkerchief and corrected him with a smile.
After doing it for a long time, she was not asking about the brothel. This way, she felt much more relieved!
"Feng Kuan?"
Kang Anping muttered softly and looked at the county magistrate.
The county magistrate shook his head slightly and said that he did not know this person at all!
"What is your relationship with Feng Kuan?"
It was Ying Feiyu who spoke this time.
"Your Highness, what kind of relationship can I, an old woman, have with that Feng Kuan? It's just a business relationship!"
The madam said with a relaxed expression.
"Business relationship?"
"Yes, he often comes to our Xiangmanlou, and sometimes he sells a group of girls to us. It's just a business relationship...!"
The old madam sat on her knees on the ground, waving her handkerchief, and said: "You also know that in our profession, we need more girls, and they need to be fresh. Nowadays, people's lives are getting better and better, and those who sell girls are really... Too little, and Feng Kuan happens to be doing this, so I will buy the girl from him!"
"oh?"
The county magistrate, Kang Anping, and Ying Feiyu looked at each other.
It seems that they are looking for the right one, it should be Feng Kuan!
Otherwise, it wouldn't be such a coincidence. It just so happens that Feng Kuan is also in the business of reselling girls!
"Do the girls you bought have contracts?"
Ying Feiyu asked suspiciously.
"Your Highness, you are wronging me by saying that. It is true that Yan Sanniang is engaged in the business of Goulan Vashe, but it is absolutely legal. All the girls have contracts of prostitution!"
The madam held the fragrant handkerchief in her hands and kept patting her towering chest to reassure her.
"Are those girls obedient?"
"Hehe! It's strange to say that this is why I am willing to buy the girls from Brother Kuan...er...Feng Kuan! Each of them looks like someone who has been trained, very obedient and well-behaved, much better than the ones I usually get here in pieces. The girl is more obedient!"
The madam seemed to be calling Brother Kuan smoothly, and when he opened his mouth, it was Brother Kuan.
But when she thought that the guy might have committed a crime, so she was brought to the government for questioning, she immediately changed her story and called him by his real name!
"now it's right!"
Everything was as Ying Feiyu guessed.
After those girls were kidnapped by the beasts in the mountains, they were sent to Feng Kuanna. After some education, they were sold to brothels everywhere!
Those who are disobedient will either be rewarded to those in the mountains, or thrown into the valley!
"Go and bring over all the deeds of prostitution that you have sold throughout the building, especially those who bought the girls from Brother Kuan!"
Kang Anping said with a cold face.
"Uh... Sir? I want to ask, what happened to Kuan... uh... Feng Kuan?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the two government servants were about to take the madam back to get the contract.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to get up, the madam did not forget to gossip and asked Kang Anping!
"Bangdang..."
"Have you forgotten what I just said? Didn't I tell you? Just answer the questions, and don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask!"
There was another sound of knocking on the wake-up wood, and the county magistrate shouted sharply.
"Hmph! If you don't ask, don't ask. I don't know what I know! What a denigrate person! When I went to our Xiangmanlou a few days ago, I didn't have this attitude. I almost grinned to my ears. It’s…!”
The madam twisted her waist and followed the yamen servant out, muttering dissatisfied.
The black line on the county magistrate's forehead is very embarrassing!
He really can't control these people.
If it were ordinary people, they would be so frightened that they would be trembling with fear. They would not dare to talk nonsense anymore and would be obedient!
But these people are like dead pigs who are not afraid of boiling water. No matter what you say, they will ignore it.
If you can restrain yourself a little bit, that will be considered as giving you face!
"Hey, His Royal Highness, Prince Kang, Shangshu, these people are used to being in the Goulan. What they say cannot be counted, cannot be counted, hehe!"
The county magistrate looked at the two men with a smile on his face, fearing that they would say something bad about him when they returned.
He is already at this age and will retire in a few more years.
When the time comes, I will take my pension and go back to my hometown to take care of myself.
But we must not make any mistakes at this time!
Especially when it comes to a brothel madam like Yan Sanniang, he will be furious to death!
