Chapter 036 Beauty
When Su Qingqing was still a general, whenever she returned to Beijing, she would visit the Broken Red Tower.
It was not for the purpose of listening to the music, but the Broken Red Tower was where she collected intelligence on various forces in Kyoto.
This place is a mixed crowd of good and bad people, and it is where information flows the fastest.
Unfortunately, even so, she couldn't defend against the black arrow that suddenly shot at her on the battlefield.
Taking a deep breath, Su Qingqing walked up the stairs, fanning herself with a folding fan.
At the entrance of Suihonglou, there were lowest-level prostitutes who greeted and sent off guests. When they saw the guests coming, they would rush to them enthusiastically and say, "You two are unfamiliar. Is this your first time in Suihonglou? I promise to satisfy you."
A strong smell of powder hit her face. Su Qingqing lifted the chin of a prostitute with her folding fan and threw a piece of silver to her. "Who is the top prostitute?"
The prostitute took the silver and said happily, "We have three top prostitutes in Suihonglou who are equally famous. One is good at singing and dancing and her name is Fuyu, one is good at playing the piano and chess and her name is Yingliu, and one is good at calligraphy and painting and her name is Chunjiao. I wonder which one you two gentlemen like?"
The three top stars are still the same three top stars.
Su Qingqing smiled and said, "What if I choose both?"
The prostitute giggled, half of her face covered by the round fan in her hand. "Not to mention that I have enough money, our three sisters may not be free at the same time. Take today for example, Sister Fuyu and Sister Yingliu both have someone in their rooms. Sister Chunjiao..."
As she spoke, she looked uncertainly at her companion.
The companion was about to respond when Jixiang quickly threw a piece of silver over.
The companion immediately took the call with a smile on his face, and said in a sweet voice, "Sister Chunjiao has accepted the invitation from the eldest son of the Su family, but the eldest son of the Su family may not come."
That's an interesting thing to say.
What I mean is, she is free now, and if you have too much money to spend, you can go find her, but since the eldest son of the Su family is here, you have to give up your position.
After she finished speaking, the prostitute laughed and said, "Except for these three sisters, the other girls in our Shattered Red Mansion are not bad either. The two gentlemen are not as good as..."
As they were talking, they led Su Qingqing and Jixiang inside, and they happened to meet the madam of the Broken Red Tower, Madam Du, who was walking over with a smile on her face. A prostitute stepped forward and said cleverly, "Madam, these two are strangers, and they want to see our sister Chunjiao."
Mother Du looked Su Qingqing up and down with her charming eyes, and said with a smile, "What a coincidence. Miss Chunjiao is free now. Hurry up and take the two gentlemen up. But I have to explain the rules here to you in advance. The girls above the second rank here are not allowed to sleep with you. If the two gentlemen have other interests, they can go to the Jiaoxiang Courtyard in front."
Su Qingqing nodded with a smile and glanced back vaguely.
She had stood outside the door for long enough, so the people who were secretly following her outside should have clearly seen her enter this den of brothel.
Waving the fan, after Madam Du had finished speaking, Su Qingqing said to Jixiang and left, "Go ahead, don't make the beauty wait anxiously, you can do everything slowly, it would be a sin to miss the beauty's smile."
Jixiang smiled and followed her master.
Mother Du was about to turn around to greet the other guests, but when she heard these words, her whole body suddenly froze. She turned back in surprise and looked at the backs of the two young men.
Mother Du knows a lot of people, how could she not see that those two people just now were women disguised as men!
Just that sentence...
When the general was here, they always liked to say this.
Her heart trembled violently, and Mother Du tried her best to control her emotions. She still walked around the lobby on the first floor with a smile on her face as if nothing had happened, and then returned to the house without leaving any trace.
The three top girls of Suihonglou divided the third floor equally. Each of them had a room that was ridiculously large, a large suite with one inside and one outside.
This also resulted in the entire third floor being quiet except for the occasional noise .
The maid led Su Qingqing and Jixiang to the door of Chunjiao's room and knocked softly, "Sister Chunjiao, guests are coming. "
Soon, footsteps were heard in the room, and the door was opened. The person who opened the door was not Chunjiao, but a little girl of about eleven or twelve years old. She glanced at Su Qingqing and Jixiang, then said to the maid unhappily, "Sister has accepted an appointment with Master Su today."
The maid explained respectfully, "The two young masters knew about this, and they just wanted to take advantage of Sister Chunjiao's free time to catch a glimpse of her beauty, and mother agreed."
The little girl then turned sideways unhappily and made way for Su Qingqing with a pout.
Jixiang looked at her in surprise, gently tugged at Su Qingqing's sleeve, and said in a low voice: "Master..."
Su Qingqing knew what she was going to say, so she tapped her head with her fan and turned to the little girl and said, "Please tell Xiaoyuer that I have admired Miss Chunjiao for a long time."
The little girl was surprised that this person actually knew her name, and she stared at Su Qingqing with wide eyes.
"How do you know my name? You are not a frequent visitor to our sister Chunjiao's place. This is probably your first time here at Broken Red Mansion. You know that our sister Chunjiao has an appointment today, but you still want to spend money. Tell me, what is your purpose!"
"Fish must not be rude!"
A scolding voice came from the inner room, followed by the jingling of jewelry and the rubbing of clothes. Chunjiao came out of the inner room with a coquettish look on her face.
Jixiang's eyes widened.
It looks so beautiful!
Su Qingqing glanced at Jixiang and saw that he looked like he was about to drool, and she couldn't help laughing.
After knocking on Jixiang's head again, Su Qingqing turned to Chunjiao and clasped her fists, "I have heard of Miss Chunjiao's great name for a long time. I am fortunate to meet her today. It is a blessing for me."
Chun Jiao smiled and said, "Sir, you are embarrassing me."
As he spoke, he stood up and made a gesture to lead the way, pointing his finger towards the low table in the outer room, "Sir, please take a seat. What kind of tea do you like?"
Su Qingqing sat down and said, "Pour boiling water into the Longjing , add two pieces of frost sugar and three daisies. If you are willing, it would be even better if you can give me a drop of rose wine."
Chunjiao's hand trembled as she was about to pour tea, and the teapot that was originally held steadily in her hand fell to the ground with a clang.
A pot of hot tea spilled all over the floor, but she didn't even notice the heat at her feet, her eyes fixed on the young man in front of her.
Su Qingqing had a smile in her eyes and let her watch.
Jixiang looked sympathetic. This girl was so pretty, but it turned out she was not in good health. No wonder she was unhappy to receive two guests a day. She couldn't even hold the teapot steadily to pour water, and she would be exhausted if she received one more guest.
Sick beauties have a unique flavor.
Xiao Yuer was startled and rushed to Chunjiao, "Sister, are you okay?"
Chun Jiao stared at the person opposite her without moving her eyes away, and patted the back of Xiao Yu'er's hand, "Go play at the door."
Xiao Yuer was startled and turned to look at the two young masters.
In the past, only when General Su came would her sister Chunjiao let her go to the door to play. She said she was playing, but in fact she was just guarding the door.
Why let her go now?
With a question mark in his mind, Xiao Yuer said nothing and just walked away. His unrestrained little figure seemed to be shouting: I am an emotionless goalkeeper!
