After resting for a day, Huarong dressed neatly the next day. Waving his expensive bone fan, he left with his three lackeys.
"Lai Jiu, is the news accurate?" Huarong asked.
"Boss, don't worry. Our Se Clan owns several properties in Yangzhou. The news can't be wrong. Although the Family Lou's headquarters is in the town of Family Lou, the Family Lou is a big family. They also have a residence in Yangzhou. That Young Master Lou is one of the top debauchees in Yangzhou. How could he be willing to return to town?
Huarong chuckled. "Let's go. Let's meet this famous debauchee of Yangzhou."
The three of them smiled wretchedly. They recalled their glorious deeds in the capital, as well as the grand occasion where they were beaten black and blue by their boss.
They were very familiar with the favorite places of debauchees. Even if Jinling was replaced by Yangzhou, they would be able to find the right place.
"Young Master, the one in blue in front is the young master of the Family Lou." Lai Jiu specially brought a shopkeeper to act as a guide and identify the person.
"Okay, you can go back now." Lai Jiu said mysteriously.
The shopkeeper didn't like to come to a place like a casino. After receiving the order, he dashed away as if there were demons and ghosts chasing after him.
Huarong crossed his arms and rested his bone fan on his chin. He shook his head and sighed. "Lou Yiyang is a person of high status. I didn't expect him to have such a nephew."
"Boss, your father's poetry is …"
"Pa, pa, pa." The bone fan continuously hit Lin Heqing's head. "Is my poetry not good? How many times would you have been able to leave the closed door if it weren't for me? "
"No, I'm saying that your father's poetry is good. You're also good. Just because you like to come to a casino doesn't mean you don't know how to write poetry." He didn't say the last sentence. He only complained in his heart, 'When did you get rid of your double standards?'
Huarong ignored him and waved his hand. "Go, invite the most famous courtesan in Yangzhou for me. Today, this young master will teach this Young Master Lou what style is."
"Boss, it's not easy. The famous prostitutes in Yangzhou are all talented and virtuous." Lai Jiu was in a difficult position.
Lin Heqing slapped Lai Jiu on the shoulder. "Boss, do you think it's a problem to invite a famous prostitute?"
Poor Lai Jiu had just been beaten by Huarong's bone fan, and now he had to endure Lin Heqing's punches and kicks. The most important thing was that he had to fork out the money. He was wailing endlessly in his heart.
"You feel wronged? Where are the most famous courtesans? "Lin Heqing asked.
"Jiangnan," Lai Jiu said, feeling wronged.
"Boss invited the most famous prostitute, aren't you basking in his glory?"
"Yes." Lai Jiu immediately felt wronged and said that the money was worth it. He didn't lose out even if he was beaten. The Gu Clan's appraisal: Stupid.
Lai Jiu's father sneezed a few times in Jinling. He touched his nose and said hatefully, "That stinky brat was bullied by that person from the Gu Clan again!"
"My poor son. Mother will find dozens of beautiful women for you. Even if you are bullied outside, you will still have a tender home at home." Lai Jiu's mother sniffled. She was heartbroken.
The three of them turned back and went to Yangzhou's largest brothel — Miaoyin Pavilion.
As soon as they appeared at the door, the brothel keeper's discerning eyes immediately saw that these four people were of noble birth and had high social status. They were definitely fat sheep!
"Oh, the four young masters look unfamiliar. Did you come to Yangzhou to play?" The brothel keeper's body was greasy and almost stuck to Huarong, who was walking in front.
Zhang Xiaotian and Lin Heqing didn't let her touch their boss. They immediately pushed her away, "Call your top courtesan to come out and accompany our boss."
When the brothel keeper heard this, she calculated in her heart. It was another group of people who came because of her reputation. She rolled her eyes and said in a voice that made people's hair stand on end, "Young master, you may not know, but our Ruyi has a bad temper. As her mother, I can't control her. Do you want to find other girls? We have other girls here who are good at many things. Mei 'er, Shan' er, Qing 'er, Zhuo' er, come quickly. "
The brothel keeper called a group of girls over in one breath. All of them were gorgeously dressed and fragrant. Huarong retreated three meters. Lin Heqing and Zhang Xiaotian were also a little disgusted. However, Lai Jiu had already started to hug the girls left and right. He wasn't picky at all.
Huarong shook his head with a firm attitude. He took out a piece of gold from Lai Jiu's money bag and said, "Tell these vulgar girls to get lost. I want to see the top courtesan."
The brothel keeper took a big bite of the gold. "Oh, it's real gold! Young master, please wait for a moment. "
She tucked the gold into her bosom and swung her way up the stairs.
Huarong followed her upstairs. Most of the upper floors were rooms. Decadent sounds could be heard, making people blush and their hearts beat faster. Except for Lai Jiu who couldn't wait, Huarong, Zhang Xiaotian, and Lin Heqing were indifferent. It wasn't the first time they came to this kind of place. It was too inexperienced to be unable to control themselves after listening to some sounds. For regular customers like them, they wouldn't even bat an eyelid if they didn't see the celestial being.
They followed the brothel keeper to a room that was decorated differently from the other rooms. Looking at the window, it seemed that they could see the surging river. The door was open. From the door, they could see that the brothel keeper was talking to someone. The brothel keeper deliberately blocked the person's face. Only the hem of her skirt could be seen, which made people's imaginations run wild.
"My daughter, these young masters look like gentlemen. Do you want to meet them?"
"Mother should know my rules. I won't meet them if they don't meet the requirements." The voice was charming and sounded like the sound of nature. Huarong was excited when he heard it, let alone the three men. If Lin Heqing didn't stop him, Lai Jiu would have rushed over.
Huarong waved his bone fan and said calmly, "I wonder what the lady's rules are."
"Oh, why is the noble lady here? Someone, do you know how to do things? Hurry and invite the noble lady to have tea! "The brothel keeper immediately turned around. The courtesan hid behind the screen and didn't even give them a chance to meet.
The brothel keeper blocked them and quickly closed the door. "Young master, please forgive us. Ruyi's rules are not difficult. You just have to compose a poem. If she likes it, you can meet her."
The three men looked at Huarong. Huarong smiled. "May I ask mother, what kind of flowers does Ruyi like?"
"Peony."
Huarong heard this and thought that she was indeed ambitious. Living in a brothel, he thought that peony was very ambitious.
Unfortunately, if she liked bamboo, orchid, and plum, Huarong might copy a good poem for her. She liked peony … so she couldn't remember too many poems. She only remembered a few lines, such as only peony was the true beauty of the nation.
However, there was one poem that she remembered clearly.
"Bring me a brush and ink." “
The brothel keeper quickly ordered someone to bring the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone. Huarong didn't hesitate and quickly finished copying a small poem. "Please send it to Ruyi."
The brothel keeper also used to be a famous courtesan. She was literate. Looking down, the poem was not bad, but … she shook her head and ordered someone to send it to Ruyi.
"Young master, in our Miaoyin Pavilion, besides Ruyi, there are also Ruhuan, Ruqing, and Ruliu. They are all ranked among the top ladies …"
Before she finished speaking, a maidservant came over and said, "Mother, the ladies invite the young masters in."
"What?" The brothel keeper was shocked. That kind of poem could work?
