During the Yunzhou Dynasty of the previous dynasty, Jiaofangsi was not divided into the east courtyard and the west courtyard.
This kind of separation situation is due to the fact that after the founding of the New Qin Dynasty, a large number of family members, criminal officials, war criminals, and children of rebels from the previous dynasty were sentenced to the Jiaofang Division.
Before the accident, most of them were wealthy and well-educated. Many of them were good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and were proficient in poetry, lyrics and songs.
On the contrary, the knitting girl is at best unsatisfactory in terms of popularity, and has basically no skills in society.
Even if women live miserable lives, as long as they gather together, they will be troubled anyway.
Some are trying to seduce Shangguan, some want to inform, and some want to contact the hidden forces of the former dynasty, and more are forming gangs, forming various large and small circles to exclude and fight each other.
The Ministry of Rites was extremely annoyed with managing these women, and even wanted to ask the father-in-law and female officials in the palace for advice.
After all, they are not the stern and stern men from the Ministry of Justice. They are a little more gentlemanly, and they are often deceived by women. They know that there is a trap, but they also jump to let them cheat...
Later, it was divided into two, and those with higher status, good looks and talents were concentrated in the east courtyard.
These women are arrogant and arrogant. Even if they want to form gangs and cause trouble, they will not easily get close to others. Therefore, they all stand on their own but have no one under them, which makes them much easier to manage.
Those with worse conditions in all aspects are often not so reserved and noble, and are more willing to accept the reality. As long as they can survive, prostitution is not unacceptable in a life of debauchery and drunkenness.
After all, they have come to this Jiaofangsi, and they have become a member of the music family. They are untouchables. How long can they be stubborn? Most women quickly accept the reality after crying for a while.
Girl Hanchan is different from them. Her father died young after being demoted.
Widowed, bullied by her tribe, and living in a difficult and helpless life, she joined Leji and became a singing prostitute at the age of fifteen.
In the West Courtyard, Miss Hanchan is one of the few people who now have the opportunity to join the East Courtyard.
Just joining the East Courtyard may not be a good thing, and with the support of Dr. Wenli and others from the Admonition Courtyard, Miss Hanchan is very popular in the West Courtyard, and her life is comfortable.
Wen Li once wrote a poem "Huansha Stream·Han Cicada" for Miss Han Chan: The autumn rain is empty, the maple leaves are sparse on the mountain, and the willows are left in the dusk clouds, and the wild geese are walking alone. The long wind blows the dream into the corner of the sky. The cicadas on the jade pillow are startled by the dawn, and the bright moon shines through the closed window. Who accompanies the shadow court late at night?
The girls in Qinlou and Chuguan will be worth a lot if a talented man writes poems for them.
Wen Wenli is always a bit older, and he is considered an old talent, but his reputation is not small, which naturally makes Miss Han Chan more popular.
So every time he came with gentle courtesy, even though Miss Hanchan was tired of him having to talk about poetry and songs for an hour before going to bed, she could only greet him with a smile.
Middle-aged and elderly people always like to talk about a lot of things before getting down to business, and there is nothing that can be done about it.
What makes Miss Han Chan even more grateful is that whenever gentleness and politeness fail to boost his power, he likes to show off his prestige in Jianyuan.
He talked about which one he was planning to impeach, which government affairs he was planning to oppose, and who he was drinking and chatting with... which gave her a lot of knowledge.
Last night, the gentle and courteous eldest son came, but Miss Hanchan did not receive him. He lied that he was ill, but in fact he was lying in the arms of Wei Liangzai, the guard of Langya Palace.
This man was by no means gentle and courteous. He didn't talk about any poems or songs with Miss Hanchan at all, but he was like an ox hitched to a rake in a paddy field, vowing to plow the field.
Afterwards, he and Miss Han Chan exchanged a couplet, saying, "Two dates will be ripe in front of Miss Bai's grave." Miss Han Chan looked at the two taels that he had finally become honest with, and giggled and said, "Huang Xianggong's brows are at a loss." Wei Liang was shocked. Zai said that the girl's talent was as good as Ming Shiyin's.
Miss Hanchan didn't even dare to say anything. Ming Shiyin was a well-known Qingke counselor, and the couplets he made for fun were just a coincidence.
"Sir, I heard that Miss Shengjun is meeting guests behind the curtain in the east courtyard tonight."
When she woke up in the morning, Miss Hanchan had a restful night's sleep. She slept as soundly and happily as she had ever slept before. Fortunately, she hadn't forgotten the business yet. She drew circles on Wei Liangzai's chest with her fingers and chatted casually.
"Meeting guests behind the curtain?" Wei Liangzai frowned slightly. He knew that he was listening to politics behind the curtain, and that was the current Queen Mother.
This Jiaofang Sidongyuan actually has a curtain hanging down to see guests, which is really unheard of.
If Wen Wenli wants to cause trouble, he might get involved in a book saying that Fu Anshu is alluding to the Queen Mother who listens behind the curtain. It is not impossible.
"That's her style..." Miss Han Chan didn't know who this girl Sheng Jun was, and she was also a little curious, "Haven't you heard of her reputation these days?"
"No. I'm not interested in her reputation, I'm more interested in your screams." Wei Liangzai burst out laughing.
"Ah... you are so bad. Haven't you heard enough last night?" Girl Hanchan's face was full of shyness, and Miaoman's soft body was nestled tightly under the brocade quilt:
"The slave family just wants to know, is a woman like Miss Shengjun, who no one has even seen what she looks like, really more attractive to people?"
"It's just a gimmick." Wei Liangzai dismissed it:
"When I buy a pig, I have to poke it twice to see if it's alive."
Miss Hanchan couldn't help but turn her head and looked up at the grilled roof with flowers, trying not to laugh out loud.
It's really funny. Men may be interested in this kind of aloof and seemingly otherworldly girl, but Girl Hanchan won't like her.
She has already entered the Jiaofang Department, and she still thinks that she is a wealthy lady, but what about the ladies of the world?
But it's funny, but Miss Hanchan still has to help Miss Shengjun say something nice:
"The slave family has heard that all the dignitaries in the city have already heard about it. Mr. Fang will also come..."
"Master Fang likes to go wherever there is excitement, but he doesn't like to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion and be fucked by his wife..."
Wei Liangzai coughed lightly. The relationship between the prime minister's office and the prince's office was good, so it was better not to chew on the eldest son behind his back.
Besides, if there is an evil wife in the family, as a man, you should feel sorry for her and feel the same, and you should not talk about her behind her back.
"Master Rong will also go."
"Mr. Rong?" Wei Liangzai smiled.
Of course he knew that Mr. Rong couldn't go.
The prince's actions were not deliberately concealed from his subordinates. Wei Liangzai knew the prince's plan last night. Wei Liangzai did not participate simply because he had other tasks.
Last night, he was ordered to go to a prostitute, and he had an affair with Miss Han Chan. He then used some tricks to make Miss Han Chan sleep soundly, and then left the Sixi Courtyard of Jiaofang.
After meeting up with several other guards who were also ordered to stay with prostitutes, they followed the plan and killed the cruel officials in the West Prison who abused the palace guards, and then returned to the embrace of the girls in the West Courtyard.
As for why we chose the expensive West Courtyard instead of an ordinary brothel similar to Huancai Pavilion, it is of course because the girls in the West Courtyard are of official background after all.
If they are needed to testify in the future, their testimony will be more credible than the girls in ordinary brothels.
"What happened to Mr. Rong? He has his own courtyard, but he is also a frequent visitor to the Jiaofang Division. If he is interested in Miss Shengjun, the girls in the East and West courtyards all think that he has a chance to win Miss Shengjun's favor." Wei Liang heard that Zai smiled with disdain, and Miss Hanchan quickly lifted up Rong Qingshu.
Miss Hanchan knew very well that only by promoting Rong Qingshu, whom Wei Liangzai looked down upon, could she achieve her goal and inspire the generals.
As for why Wei Liangzai, as the palace guard, looks down on the children of the Rong family, this is not what Miss Hanchan needs to worry about.
"How do I feel..." Wei Liangzai glanced at Miss Hanchan suspiciously, as if this girl wanted to join in the fun.
But his thoughts quickly turned away, because he thought that if the old prince was here in the past, the old prince would definitely have participated in the grand event. I wonder if the young prince is interested?
