Although the prostitute culture has been born in the progress and development of society, it has lasted forever in the long river of human history. Its vitality is not as good as many other splendid cultures. The reason is very simple. To apply a classic saying from Zhu Yinglong that time and space, the market determines everything, and existence is reasonable.

"Young Master, it seems that this is your first time to come to our Meixiang Tower?" Zhu Yinglong and four others looked up at the gorgeous facilities in the Meixiang Tower, the ladies with national appearance, and all kinds of dignitaries. They suddenly had a woman in her thirties and dressed in a pretty beautiful manner.

"Madam, who is?" Zhu Yinglong asked hurriedly.

The woman giggled and said, "It's still a lady. It's the first time I, Li Zhenli, have heard of the word "Madam" when I heard her say this!" Everyone around laughed loudly when she heard her say this.

Zhu Yinglong suddenly felt embarrassed and felt a little hot on his face. Xu Ruying glared at Li Zhenli, her words clearly included her.

After everyone finished laughing, Li Zhenli also stopped her laughter and said, "Young Master, don't mind. It may be the first time you have come to such a place. I don't know the rules here. I am the owner of this Meixiang Building. If you don't dislike me, let it go, and just call me Aunt Li."

Li Zhenli's continuous slapping and slapping suddenly relieved Zhu Yinglong's embarrassment, and her tender face turned red and called "Auntie Li".

There was another burst of laughter around him.

"Young Master isn't a local, right?" Li Zhenli greeted.

"No, I've lived in the north for a long time and went to the south of the Yangtze River for the first time." Zhu Yinglong replied vaguely.

"How did the young master know that I am from Meixianglou?" Li Zhenli asked.

Zhu Yinglong could not resist the scent of the half-hero Xu's body, and dodged repeatedly, and said with awkward smile: "I heard of it, I heard of it on the road."

"What do you feel when you come to my Meixianglou for the first time?" Li Zhenli asked with a smile.

Zhu Yinglong had already had a little resistance to Li Zhenli's enthusiasm and said, "Miss Li is a garden full of spring, with beautiful flowers and even more beautiful people!"

"Oh, young master, your mouth is so sweet. I'm afraid that the aunt, the girl in Meixiang Building, will be kidnapped by your sweet words!" Li Zhenli said with a charming look.

Zhu Yinglong felt a chill all over and said, "Auntie Li is too rewarded, I'm just telling the truth."

"Since it's your first time to visit Meixianglou, then the aunt will make the decision for you. How about choosing a few beautiful girls for you?" Aunt Li said enthusiastically. She had been careful that these four people had a lot of money and had a hundred taels of silver at one's own move, so she came over to greet him in person. Otherwise, in the outfits of Zhu Yinglong and the other four, she probably wouldn't even look at her eyes.

"Is Aunt Li so troubled?" Before he finished speaking, he felt a strong pain on his waist and eyes. Zhu Yinglong naturally knew what was going on, so he forced himself to finish his words.

Li Zhenli led Zhu Yinglong and the other two into a gorgeous private room, accused him of guilt, and went down to greet the girl to accompany the guests.

"Why are you going to come to such a place?" As soon as she sat down, Xu Ruying asked with an unhappy look on her face.

It is not good for a woman to be jealous. For the sake of family harmony in the future, you must not spoil her jealous problem. Taking advantage of her guilt to herself now, she knocked out her problem, so she said coldly: "Why didn't you ask when you came in just now?"

"I thought it was really a big banquet here, and it was a treat!" Xu Ruying didn't know that the brothel had a variety of ways to do business, and said aggrievedly, "Tell you, you are not allowed to be flirted with the girls here."

"Okay, I have my own sense of responsibility." Zhu Yinglong said lukewarmly.

After a while, four beautiful and charming southern beauties came in one after another. After saluting the four, they sat next to the four under the arrangement of Li Zhenli and greeted warmly: "These four girls are the most popular girls in my Meixianglou. They are not with ordinary people. The four of them have seen the Yanzhi from the north and must have never seen the southern beauties. Today, this is the first time that the four young men have come to my Meixianglou, so they will accompany the four young men, so they will definitely let the four have fun!"

If this is really the first time in the newcomer, I can fool you, but I have to fool someone who has seen him for hundreds of years, although it is the first time I have entered a brothel. He sneered a few times: "Miss Li, although it is the first time we are here in your Meixianglou, we have not seen the market. These girls are also considered top-notch. If you say that they are the most popular girls in your Meixianglou, we don't believe this. If you open the door to do business, is it just that fooling customers?"

Li Zhenli's face suddenly looked ugly. She thought that these four young men were just the first time they entered a brothel, so she didn't know so much. She found a few girls who were attracted to her and fooled them. She took them away and slaughtered them hard. Anyway, they were leaving tomorrow. Maybe they would not come to Nanjing City next time. Then she knew that someone had come up and exposed her lies, but after all, she had seen strong winds and waves, so she immediately changed into a smile and apologized: "I am negligent, so I will invite the most popular girl to you." After that, she turned around and wanted to go out.

"No need." Zhu Yinglong called Li Zhenli and said, "We are not here to have fun, we are here to inquire about Aunt Li."

Li Zhenli looked at Zhu Yinglong with surprise and said, "Who is it? Please say it, my son, I will definitely say it if I know it."

"I know Aunt Li adopted several orphans. I wonder if one of them was named Li Xiang?" Zhu Yinglong had already confirmed that Li Zhenli was the Aunt Li who adopted Li Xiangjun. He wanted to meet this passionate and talented woman among the eight beauties of Qinhuai. Although he knew that Li Xiangjun was only six or seven years old at this time, although Li Xiangjun was a lowly person, he was a fierce woman. Among the eight beauties, Zhu Yinglong admired the most was her loyalty, so he entered the Meixiang Building to meet this fierce girl.

Li Zhenli stared at Zhu Yinglong with wide eyes and thought to herself, this man is gentle and gentle, how could he like that kind of thing? Li Xiang is the most beloved of her adopted daughter. How could such a man betrayed? She said coldly: "No!"

Zhu Yinglong did not pay close attention to Li Zhenli's expression. Hearing the word "no", he was quite disappointed. Could it be that Li Xiangjun has not been adopted by her yet? Since she could not see Li Xiangjun on this trip, it would be meaningless. So he pulled Xu Ruying and the other three to stand up and clasped their fists at Li Zhenli and said, "Since that's the case, we won't be able to disturb us." Xu Ruying also took out a silver note from her arms and put it on the table.

"Slow down!" Li Zhenli also called Zhu Yinglong out at the same time and asked, "Young master, I don't know what you are looking for Li Xiang, but I'll ask you to come to Meixianglou again in the future. Meixianglou will not welcome the four of you from now on!"

If Li Zhenli didn't call Zhu Yinglong, he might have left like this. Her words like "warning" made Zhu Yinglong suspicious. She turned around and said to Li Zhenli: "Miss Li, we were going to leave tomorrow, but your words changed my mind. We will come again tomorrow."

"What do you guys want?" Li Zhenli said softly, Li Xiang was a piece of flesh in her heart.

"We just want to see this Li Xiang, that's all!" Zhu Yinglong seemed to hear the strong protection of Li Xiang in Li Zhenli's words, and his tone naturally became gentle.

"Take it seriously?" Li Zhenli asked in surprise.

"A gentleman's words are as good as a horse. Do we have any other purpose?" Zhu Yinglong said inexplicably.

"Okay, come with me." Li Zhenli lowered her head and thought for a while, and decided to make a decision.

Under the leadership of Li Zhenli, the four of them walked through the second entrance and came to the third entrance courtyard. They pushed open a room with lights in the room and called inside: "Xiang'er?"

"Godmother, why are you here?" A little girl with pink makeup rushed into Li Zhenli's arms and said coquettishly.

When Zhu Yinglong and the other four saw it, they were indeed a beauty, with curved eyebrows, a pair of smart eyes, pink faces, and a nervous look at the four of them, and asked, "Godmother, who are these four brothers?"

Is this Li Xiangjun among the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai who are famous for ten years later? Zhu Yinglong had an impulse to take her away, but reason told him, no, their trip was very dangerous. Isn’t it cause trouble to bring a little girl by his side? But Zhu Yinglong seemed to fall in love with this little girl at first sight. This is not a love between men and women, but the kind of love between brothers and sisters. He really wanted to have such a cute sister. Unfortunately, in the original time and space, his sister unfortunately fell into the water and died, which became his permanent pain. So when he saw Li Xiang, he remembered that because of his negligence, his sister accidentally fell into the water and died. Therefore, his eyes turned red in an instant. He opened his arms and said to Li Xiang: "Xiang'er, right? Come and hug me!"

Li Xiang looked at Zhu Yinglong, then looked at her godmother Li Zhenli, and found that her godmother nodded. Then she walked towards Zhu Yinglong and called out timidly, "Brother."

"Okay, be good, from today on, my brother will be your relative. If you have my brother to take care of you, no one will bully you, okay?" Zhu Yinglong said from the bottom of his heart.

"Okay, Xiang'er has an older brother." Xiao Xiangjun was very happy and clapped her hands excitedly.

Li Zhenli really believed that these four people had no malice towards Li Xiang, but on the contrary they were very doting on her, but how could the four of them know Li Xiang? Could it be that they are really Li Xiang's relatives? But when she adopted her, she was all dead, did not Li Zhenli not understand this problem until she died.

The four of them teased Xiao Xiangjun for a while and found that Xiao Xiangjun was not only awesome, but also proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and also had extraordinary attainments at a young age. Zhu Yinglong liked it even more. An idea came to his mind to take Xiao Xiangjun as his sister.

"Xiang'er, brother is leaving for a while. Will you come to pick you up and stay home in a few days?" Zhu Yinglong no longer cares about Qin Huai Bayan now. He is reluctant to let her stay in the fire pit with such a cute sister.

"Young man, please wait!" Li Zhenli hurriedly inserted it in and said, "Xiang'er is my goddaughter, she can't go with you. Besides, she is not at the age of taking off her lowliness, and the Ming Dynasty ruled that she can only stay in Meixianglou now."

Zhu Yinglong's expression was stunned. He didn't expect that Xu Ruying also liked Xiao Xiangjun very much, so he naturally tried his best to instigate him to take Xiao Xiangjun away. Anyway, she was already a rebel from the Ming Dynasty, so she was not afraid of the Ming Dynasty rules at all.

Zhu Yinglong considered that it would be an unwise move to take Li Xiang away now, so he had to use the method of "combing" at the suggestion of Li Zhenli. According to the fashion at that time, if a guest was in love with a prostitute, he would only invest in a grand ceremony and give the brothel a large sum of money, and the prostitute could serve the guest specifically. This set of procedures was called "combing". The funds required for combing vary depending on the name of the person who combed the combing. A large number of handsome Fengliu scholars must be invited to combing, and a generous gift to the brothel.

Li Xiang is not out of the box yet, so there is no need to invite any celebrities. A very simple ceremony is enough, leaving a considerable amount of silver, so that Xiaoxiangjun can only serve Zhu Yinglong alone in the next ten years until he redeems himself and gets rid of the bad family. Of course, according to Zhu Yinglong's idea, it will be enough for less than two years. By then, he will be the 95th, and it will be a saying for Xiaoxiangjun to get rid of the bad family.

To prove his future meeting, Zhu Yinglong wrote Du Mu's "Bai Qinhuai" on a white handkerchief: "The smoke is covered with cold water, moon is covered with sand, and the night is built by a restaurant near Qinhuai. The businesswoman does not know the hatred of the country's destruction, and sings the flowers across the river." He also gave it to him, and used his private seal "Seal of Shadow Dragon" on it.

But I knew that after years of separation, ten years of turmoil, one day, thousands of things were plagued by everything, and I couldn't remember it. One was looking forward to it, and waiting for ten years. Because at that time, Zhu Yinglong used the method of "combing" to prevent her from receiving customers after she left the house. After Li Xiangjun became sensible, she had a heart for Zhu Yinglong, the brother who had only met once, and was even more precious to the white lion. So she saved enough money to redeem herself and then went north to find her husband thousands of miles away, leaving a story of eternal style. The matter was detailed.
