Zhou has always felt guilty about Hui Niang. From her insistence on setting up a tablet for Hui Niang, to her careful care for Lu Xier, it can be clearly seen that Zhou has always cared about Hui Niang, a good sister. .

Chen Xi could not face the incident of Lu Xier entering the door.

But as Zhou said, Lu Xier is not young now. She is a seventeen-year-old girl who is not sick or ill and has a marriage contract. Even if she is a concubine, she will be treated preferentially when she enters the Shen family. However, after waiting for a few years, she still has not been able to enter the Shen family. Naturally, Zhou is not happy.

My good sister's daughter, you are a child, and you are a child. Why didn't you marry me and have a few fat grandchildren earlier?

Chen Xi did not give Zhou a chance to mess around and said, "Mom, I have my own arrangements for Xier and Xiaowen's entry. You have no other effect than causing me trouble! The situation in the capital is unclear now, and the situation in the northwest is also unknown. With the uncertain prospects, I will not change my current life easily!"

"Don't worry, I will explain to them, but it is definitely not now. Even if you force me, it's useless!"

Chen Xi said everything straightforwardly and clearly told Zhou to stop this idea as soon as possible.

Zhou looked at Chen Xi with disbelief: "You little brat, you really have a hard wings. You don't listen to your mother's words? If someone else raises an engaged little girl, he would rather marry you soon. You're good, you're at home and spend time together. Do you really think they are your own sisters? Don't think about it, your Aunt Sun was so nice to you at the time..."

Zhou's mouth was a broken jar, and it kept sprinkling water. Chen Xi didn't want to hear Zhou continue and said loudly: "Please pack everything at home. We will set off for the capital in two days."

"It's almost two years since we left the capital. After we arrived in Beijing, we have to repair the house. Mom goes back and prepare well, don't leave anything behind. We probably won't go back to Huguang in a short time! I'm on business and won't come back tonight."

...

...

Chen Xi was in a bad mood and went out of the Governor's Mansion, planning to spend the night outside tonight.

Since he served as the governor of the two provinces, Wuchang Prefecture and even Huguang, Jiangxi have always regarded Chenxi as the most respected. Local military and political power are in control. Even if the two provinces and three departments have to do anything, they must first ask Chenxi for instructions. On his own territory, Chenxi feels the sense of accomplishment that everything is in control.

But at this time, Chen Xi was filled with loss and was about to leave Huguang. His previous hard work was over and he had to start working hard again in a new place.

Behind Chen Xi, there were old brothers who followed him around the country, the palace guards who had gone south from the capital, and the elites who had drawn their protection from the firearms camp.

Ma Jiu asked, "Sir, where are you going?"

Chen Xi was in a daze. Hearing this, he looked back at Ma Jiu and said, "Brother Jiu, you go back to accompany your wife and children first. I just went out for a walk. I will go to the Dusi Yamen early tomorrow morning, and then go to the firearm camp. There are still many things to arrange!"

"yes!"

Ma Jiu respectfully accepted the order and left.

After Ma Jiu left, Yunliu hurried over and brought the latest information from the capital.

"grown ups……"

Yunliu was about to say something, Chen Xi waved his hand: "Let's not talk about it for now. How many places are there in Wuchang Prefecture except for the Jiaofangsi?"

Yun Liu was very surprised. She didn't understand why Chen Xi suddenly asked about this and replied respectfully: "Sir, there is a total of Jiaofangsi and eight Qinlou in Jiangxia City, but there are many private brothels that have never been counted..."

"Um!"

Chen Xi nodded, "Take me to a place, I want to drink."

Yunliu was even more strange. Chen Xi actually wanted to drink "flower wine", which was very different from Chen Xi she had known before.

But Yun Liu has always followed Chen Xiyan's advice. In her opinion, since Chen Xi ordered this to do so, there must be his reason. Even if she really went to drink flower wine, it was not a big deal in her opinion.

Yunliu reminded: "Sir, if you drink, the Jiaofangsi is more suitable. Those who come and go are all officials and gentry, not as complicated as Qinlou."

Chen Xidao: "I'm just drinking, and going to Jiaofangsi will inevitably mobilize all the troops... Find a relatively quiet place, just arrange it, I may stay there tonight, and I won't go back to the Governor's Mansion for the time being."

Yun Liu bowed: "Yes, sir, I will arrange it for you!"

...

...

With Yunliu taking care of everything, Chenxi doesn't have to worry about choosing the right place.

Yunliu is responsible for collecting information. Qinlou Chuguan has always been a place for information distribution. Yunliu has been installing people in Qinlou in Huguang, Jiangxi and other places. Because of the background of the Governor's Office, the bosses of those places of love have to act according to Yunliu's expression.

Yunliu is like the great butler of Chenxi. In addition to intelligence, he is also responsible for logistics supply. The connection between the three religions and the Governor's Office is all based on Yunliu.

Yunliu has always appeared as a man outside. When Chenxi arrived at the place arranged by Yunliu, it was dark in the night, but at this time, people were still walking around on the street, and lanterns were lit one after another, and many businesses continued to open their doors.

"Sir, under your governance, Wuchang Mansion will not close its doors at night, and the people will live and work in peace and contentment! In the past, there were very few night markets in Wuchang Mansion, but after you took office, the city was prosperous in the morning and evening, and the business of wine shops and teahouses at night was not much worse than during the day. Because the city gates were closed until the hour of Hai, it was not too late for the people to go out of the city after visiting the night market." Yunliu said.

Chen Xi nodded slightly, a little absent-minded, and then Yun Liu took him into a yard where there was no door plaque.

After looking around, Chen Xi found that the Qin Building was very small, but it was just a two-story building, much smaller than the Tingzhou Prefecture Jiaofangsi.

At this time, someone greeted him. He was a man in his forties with a stubborn face and a Confucian robe. He looked like a scholar.

The man smiled and greeted: "Customer, please come upstairs."

Chen Xi didn't say anything, Yun Liu said coldly: "Prepare a few girls, both good and good, and can hold up the table. If you can't satisfy my son, you won't have to start this game!"

Yunliu was full of official voice. The middle-aged man originally wanted to come forward to show his attention, but when he heard this, he turned around and left. Chen Xi and Yunliu went upstairs together. A thirty-year-old woman on the upper floor welcomed Chen Xi to an elegant small hall, opened the door, and lit a few candlesticks inside.

Chen Xi walked into the room and Yunliu asked, "Young Master, the south is mostly ground mats. If you are not used to it, someone will change the tables and chairs for you."

Chen Xi shook his head: "No need to be so troublesome. This is great. I am from the south myself. I don't care so much about it. I have people to prepare wine and food. I didn't have dinner when I returned home before, and I am a little hungry now."

Yunliu asked: "Does someone prepare a guest room for adults?"

Chen Xi looked at the hall: "It's good here. It can be drunk and full, and it also has entertainment programs. If you are tired, you will lie down and sleep until dawn... It's just that the weather is a little cold, so I have someone to send you some bedding."

This sentence is a bit desolate. The governor of the two provinces is like a homeless stray child, which makes Yunliu feel incredible.

But Yunliu did not dare to raise objections. Since it was Chen Xi's instructions, she obeyed the order and tried her best to make Chen Xi feel more comfortable at night.

...

...

Good wine and food, and even more beautiful women.

Under the red candle, Chen Xi drank glass after cup.

Yunliu didn't know where Chenxi was sad, but she just knelt beside Chenxi and kept pouring wine. Chenxi's eyes were blurred, and she seemed to be drunk after drinking a few glasses of wine.

Yunliu said: "Young Master, it's not too early, you should go home..."

Chen Xi held the wine pot in his hand and said, "When I arrived at this place of fireworks, I was drunk and dreaming, and suddenly realized that I was so small that I was almost powerless to change the world. It would be better to be drunk... pour wine!"

Yun Liu filled the wine glass again, and Qinle stopped at this time. The girls had never seen a "polite" guest like Chen Xi. When they arrived here, they didn't ask for the women, but just drank there. With their experience in dealing with people, of course they knew that such people were either a junior brother who didn't know the etiquette of the festival, or they really had some sorrow and needed to drink to drown their sorrows.

Chen Xi picked up the wine glass and drank it all. Yun Liu poured wine for Chen Xi, but she felt extremely distressed... Chen Xi was her leaning on her. Seeing Chen Xi like this, she seemed to feel a little sad. She wanted to persuade Chen Xi but didn't know where to start.

Yunliu asked, "Young Master, should you let the girls come and accompany you?"

Chen Xi raised his head, looked at the women, and shook his head slightly: "Let them continue to perform, just drink, there is no fun, and it will be much better if you have more entertainment. Stay here to accompany me today!"

Yunliu was slightly surprised when she heard Chen Xi's request and whispered: "Sir, this...is a little inappropriate. I... I'm busy for a day and haven't washed it..."

Chen Xi smiled and hugged Yun Liu into his arms. The instrumental music in the room was obviously confused. Obviously, the women were surprised by the scene in front of them. One man actually hugged another "man" into his arms. They immediately understood why after the guests came, they just listened to the music of the piano without doing anything to them.

However, the girls' panic was only temporary and soon returned to normal.

Chen Xidao: "There is no need to go back. Let's prepare everything for you, and come over after washing up... The eyes seem to be blurry, but it seems that this state looks more charming to you."
