"Ah Li is right. With the Imperial Jade Seal, you will have the so-called fate of the heavens. What's more, it is said that the Great Ancestor of the previous dynasty's treasure house contains the secret books of the Great Ancestor of the previous dynasty and the treasures left behind when the country was founded. "Mo Xiuyao smiled faintly. In the eyes of those people, the most valuable thing was not the treasures, but the Great Ancestor's Art of War. Who dared to compare the Art of War with the Mohist army? Originally, there was also Jhennam Of Gojoseon who was known as the West-Hill God of War. However, since Jhennam Of Gojoseon was defeated by Princess Ding, in the eyes of the West-Hill soldiers, the Mohist army was simply Jhennam Of Gojoseon's nemesis. Jhennam Of Gojoseon was invincible throughout his life, but he was defeated by the Mohist army again and again. It was understandable that he was defeated by Mo Liufang. After all, the Prince Ding Mansion had a long history and Mo Liufang was a genius of a generation. However, it was unreasonable that he was defeated by Princess Ding. A teenage girl from a scholarly family could defeat Jhennam Of Gojoseon who had experienced hundreds of battles. If she was not a natural nemesis, then what was?
Speaking of the Imperial Jade Seal, Ye Li could not help but frown and ask, "Will Tan Jizhi come to the northwest this time?"
Mo Xiuyao nodded and said, "Shu Manlin is still in Ruyang. Unless Tan Jizhi doesn't want her anymore, he will definitely come."
"Shu Manlin?" Xu Qingchen raised his eyebrows and smiled. He did not know when the Saintess of Nanjiang came to the northwest. Ye Li smiled and said, "I forgot to tell you. Speaking of which, you and the Saintess of Nanjiang are old acquaintances. Previously, the Saintess of Nanjiang mentioned you to me. Do you want to meet him?" Xu Qingchen rubbed Ye Li's head helplessly, ignoring Mo Xiuyao's displeased look. She smiled and said, "Forget it. I'm sure she doesn't want anyone else to know that she's here." The Saintess of the Southern Border was not allowed to leave the Southern Zhao Imperial City. If the people of the Southern Border found out, then Shu Manlin's position as the Saintess of the Southern Border would come to an end.
In Ruyang City, people came from all over the place to participate in the grand event. This city, which was originally not very famous in the northwest, suddenly became bustling and lively. Many foreign peddlers had appeared on the streets, peddling various goods from the Pass, Western Hill, Northern Army, and Southern Zhao to the pedestrians. The various inns, restaurants, and teahouses in the city were also filled with people. It was not only the envoys from the imperial court who entered the city every day. There were also merchants from various places, swordsmen from Jianghu, and even travelers. The entire Ruyang City appeared to be unprecedentedly lively and prosperous.
Concentrated Fragrance Pavilion was a newly opened singing and dancing establishment in Ruyang City, but in less than two months, it had become the number one singing and dancing establishment in the northwest. But Concentrated Fragrance Pavilion was completely different from ordinary brothels. The girls of Concentrated Fragrance Pavilion only sold their skills and not their bodies. Rather than calling it a singing and dancing establishment, it was better to call it a restaurant. Because not only were there the most beautiful girls, there was also the best wine and the most delicious wine. Here, you could find girls to listen to music and dance, but you could not have girls accompany you to drink, let alone other services. Therefore, Concentrated Fragrance Pavilion not only entertained male guests, but also female guests.
But people had this kind of temperament. The more you were not allowed to do something, the more you would think she was the best. After all, listening to music, drinking wine, and admiring beauties was the same. Going to a brothel and drinking tea at Concentrated Fragrance Pavilion, the latter was more elegant. Moreover, the beauties in Concentrated Fragrance Pavilion were genuine beauties. They didn't have the heavy makeup and coquettish voices of those in brothels. Each and every one of them wore the same style and color of clothes as they served dishes in Concentrated Fragrance Pavilion. As for those who performed music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, singing and dancing, they were the beauties of beauties. Not to mention these barren lands without many beauties in the northwest, even the scholars and poets from Jiangnan would be intoxicated.
Ye Li sat in a wing room on the second floor of Concentrated Fragrance Pavilion, leaning against the window and looking outside. It was already night, but all of Ruyang City was brightly lit like it was daytime. There was a high platform across from Concentrated Fragrance Pavilion. It seemed to be playing some kind of arena game. There was a flow of people downstairs, and it seemed to be more lively than during the day.
"It's so late, wang fei, why have you come out?" Yaoji was wearing a red robe. Her beautiful face had recovered seventy to eighty percent. She did not look as beautiful as before, but people felt she was more gentle and moving. Pushing open the door and coming in, Yaoji leaned against the door and asked with a smile. Ye Li smiled faintly and said, "I had nothing to do, so I came out to see. You've managed Concentrated Fragrance Pavilion well. " Yaoji curled her lips and said, "Yes, it's good. I have to thank you for your kindness, wang fei. Otherwise, it would be a pity for so many beauties in Concentrated Fragrance Pavilion to become prostitutes."
Ye Li looked at her with a faint smile and said, "Who said that beauties must open brothels? There are many brothels under Tianyi Pavilion. It's not worthwhile to open another one. Besides, Concentrated Fragrance Pavilion may not earn less than your Qingcheng Lane, right? "
Yaoji nodded and said with a smile, "You're right, wang fei." Concentrated Fragrance Pavilion's expenses were extremely high. Even Yaoji, who used to run the number one brothel in the capital, couldn't help but be speechless. However, business was very good these days. In less than half a month, they made a lot of money. Therefore, there was one thing that was right. People … were born to be cheap!
"Remember, if you want a girl to accompany you, tell them to go to those brothels by themselves. The Concentrated Fragrance Pavilion only provides the best wine, the best dishes, the most pleasant tunes, the most beautiful dances, and the most exciting talent shows. Nothing else! "Ye Li ordered as she watched the scene downstairs. Yaoji nodded and said, "Yaoji understands. Speaking of which … today, Prince Li, the Seventh Prince of the Northern Tribes, and the Crown Prince of Xiling Jhennam Of Gojoseon all came to Concentrated Fragrance Pavilion."
Ye Li smiled and said, "Concentrated Fragrance Pavilion has risen too quickly. It would be strange if they didn't come. Don't pay attention to them. Do what you need to do. "
Yaoji covered her mouth and smiled, "Now I believe that wang fei said Concentrated Fragrance Pavilion exists to make money. But it's lively these days. When these people leave … "Ye Li smiled and said," Don't worry. This time, many people came and won't leave. In the future, more people will come. This will require Concentrated Fragrance Pavilion's efforts to tell those rich people the benefits of living and doing business in Ruyang City … "
"Yaoji understands." Yaoji walked to the window and curiously followed Ye Li's gaze. "What is wang fei looking at?"
Ye Li pointed at the arena not far across the street and asked, "What's going on there?" Yaoji smiled and said, "Setting up an arena. These days, not only are there many merchants coming to Ruyang, there are also many young masters and martial artists. That arena has been set up for two days, but the champion seems to be from the Northern Tribes. If you win, the prize is a treasured knife studded with gems. Fifty taels of silver once. These two days, the champion has earned a lot of money. "Compared to a treasured knife studded with gems, fifty taels of silver was naturally nothing. But if no one could win, then the champion didn't need to pay any cost. Fifty taels of silver was enough for a normal person to live for two to three years.
Ye Li was curious, "What arena is so difficult?"
Yaoji said, "Archery."
"Archery?" Ye Li raised her eyebrows in surprise. It seemed that the champion of the Northern Tribes was very confident in his archery skills. One had to know, what kind of place was Ruyang now? It was where the Mohist army was stationed. Half of the Mohist army's elite Black Cloud Cavalry were stationed outside Ruyang City. And all of the Black Cloud Cavalry could be said to be one in a hundred master archers. Yaoji looked outside and suddenly smiled, "Wang fei, are those the young generals of the Mohist army?" Ye Li looked outside and saw that a few young generals had squeezed to the front of the crowd. It was Yun Ting and the young general called Chen Yun who had fought with Ye Li in the Mohist army camp. It seemed that the two had a good relationship now. Ye Li stood up and smiled, "Let's go and see what's so special about the Northern Tribes master archers."
