The abolition of private prostitution went very smoothly, at least in the capital.
Led by the Hanlin Academy and the Ministry of Civil Affairs, regulations prohibiting private establishments of erotic establishments were written into the Dayong Law.
The water of private prostitution is very deep. It is child's play for Lingchan to let the young general who came back from the border handle this case. The relationship in the capital is complicated, and the relationship between masters and disciples, in-laws of various aristocratic families, is complicated. However, Fu Wenzhang's investigation went extremely smoothly, and no encounter was encountered. If there were any obstacles, within half a month they had identified all the private prostitutes in the capital, controlled their purchase channels, and began to organize the gradual release of these poor girls back home.
Tantai played a big role in creating clear and clear ideas.
But fundamentally, this is the country of Emperor Qianhua, and this court is Emperor Qianhua's official voice. Even if you are dissatisfied, you must pretend to be convinced to avoid being liquidated by Emperor Qianhua.
In addition, those who were allowed to have a little more respect were the people under the Crown Prince and King An. For some reason, they also gave the green light to Fu Wenzhang's various actions. Not only did they not hinder him, they even provided more help.
That case that should have been very difficult was completed easily in Fu Wenzhang's hands.
Many people saw the different potential in Ling Chan and offered her an olive branch overtly or covertly. Even the Queen summoned Ling Chan for the first time after she entered the palace as a noble concubine.
Chan was so happy that she went away in a daze.
The queen was kind to her, kind-hearted, kind, gentle and considerate, which made Lingchan wonder what year it was.
When she returned to the Pearl Palace in the evening and saw the emperor, the first thing Ling Chan did when she opened her mouth was to show off to the emperor that she and the empress had reconciled their relationship.
"My queen is finally willing to see me! It's so great!"
The emperor pinched her smiling face and laughed at her, "Does she want to reconcile with you? She is interested in the power in your hands."
He looked at Ling Chan's fair and pink face and wondered how could there be such a silly and cute little girl in this world?
He taught her patiently, "These people are vicious dogs in human skin. They will rush up and bite you when they smell food. They are all good at talking and performing, but you can't believe any of them." People are lying to you.”
"Just to let you transfer your rights to them."
"The Queen was very kind to me before, when I was a poor orphan," Lingchan said.
"But you are no longer an orphan now. You have something in your hands that she covets even more."
"I think," Lingchan curled her eyes and smiled, innocently and innocently, "The Queen was so kind to me in the past, and I should also be nice to the Queen now."
"I know what you gave me is precious, a treasure that many people want,"
She paused and seemed to be organizing the words, "But since I can't use it completely independently, it's not impossible to share it with others."
Emperor Qianhua laughed at her naivety, "You foolishly want to share it with others, but you don't know that others just want to take away all your things and leave nothing to you."
"Nothing that can be taken away from me truly belongs to me."
Lingchan bent her eyes and smiled, still looking innocent and pure, "No matter how hard I hold on and don't let go, someone will always take it away."
She stretched out her hand and held Emperor Qianhua's palm, "I can have these rights not because I am smart, capable or knowledgeable, but because I have His Majesty's preference."
"But His Majesty does not favor them," Lingchan said firmly.
"As long as His Majesty is by my side, they can't take away my things."
Lingchan said, smiling sweetly, looking at the emperor with her beautiful almond-shaped eyes, which were full of trust, simple and clean, like a clear spring where the sun could shine directly to the end.
"……Um."
Emperor Qian Hua lowered his head and unconsciously tightened his fingers, encircling the white and tender fingertips in his palm.
"Is there anything you particularly like or want?" Emperor Qianhua suddenly asked.
"I like Your Majesty the most! I want Your Majesty to always like me!"
"You can say nice things to me."
Emperor Qianhua smiled and held her in his arms, burying his chin on Lingchan's white shoulder and neck, and sighed, barely audible.
"Little liar."
Emperor Qianhua has seen too many people, and everyone is invisible in front of him. He can see through the bright and dark thoughts at a glance.
Many people lied to him, but few people could lie to him. The only one who could lie to him and make him happy was this one.
…
"Your Majesty," the girl in her arms seemed to be embarrassed and lowered her voice shyly, "Although I just said that, I still want to do a good job in abolishing private prostitution!"
"Of course you can." Emperor Qianhua smiled.
"Someone gave me an idea and said that I should go out and see those miserable women. I think what he said makes sense."
"You want to leave the palace?"
Ling Chan nodded anxiously, but felt a little confused, "I'm afraid he is a bad person and wants to do something bad for me..."
"He probably didn't expect you to think this way." Emperor Qianhua chuckled, feeling doting and helpless at the same time, "He is submitting a petition to you. Such a person is different from the Queen. At best, he is nothing more than an ordinary person. As a retainer and staff member, since you have some skills, you can use them boldly."
"As for your safety after leaving the palace." Emperor Qianhua said in a single voice: "Don't worry."
"No one can harm my concubine in my capital."
What he said was plain, but it made people feel an unparalleled sense of confidence and confidence. He is not talking big words, but he really has control of this country.
…
The carriage slowly left the palace.
This is a gold-covered carriage, embroidered with gold thread and a pattern of two dragons playing with beads, and sapphire rings hanging from the four sides, criss-crossing each other as the carriage moves forward.
In front of the carriage, there are six white horses pulling the carriage, with no trace of color on their bodies. They are strong and handsome.
This was Emperor Qianhua's carriage, which he used to support Ling Chan. It was an emperor-standard ceremonial guard that originally had eight horses. Ling Chan felt it was too high-profile, so Emperor Qianhua had to reduce the number of horses pulling the carriage by two.
Fu Wenzhang followed on horseback. He wanted to take Lingchan to visit the prostitutes who had been arranged together.
Most of those with minor injuries, those with families to return to, and those with lovers and families... have already found their own homes and left, while the remaining prostitutes were placed together in one of the largest private prostitutes.
The people around the prostitute were temporarily relocated, and my brother had already led his soldiers to carry out preliminary renovations on the prostitute's house. Although it was not as prosperous and gorgeous as before, it gave everyone a solid bed to sleep on.
The gold, silver, treasures and expensive furniture that were once everywhere were sold off in exchange for funds to house prostitutes.
In order to ensure the safety of these poor little girls, Fu Wenzhang's troops could only patrol and defend the outside, but were never allowed to enter the resettlement area inside.
It was empty at the moment, except for the footsteps of Lingchan and Fu Wenzhang.
