Chapter 284 Red Light Street

"Thank you for your help today. This is just a small token of my respect."

Princess Ankang said to the two runners.

Yu'er also stepped forward and handed them two pieces of silver.

The silver was not much, only three taels per person.

But Princess Ankang had inquired before, and their monthly salary was just like that.

Of course, in addition to the monthly salary, their uniforms can also earn them a lot of money.

But from the heart, what Princess Ankang gave was already very generous.

Today, they just accompanied Princess Ankang to visit everywhere, and the job was a little boring.

But a boring job for a day can be exchanged for a month's salary, so the two runners are happy.

However, they knew that Princess Ankang was of extraordinary status, and although they were tempted, they didn't dare to accept it for a while.

Seeing their hesitation, Princess Ankang said sympathetically:

"Today I have learned a lot of interesting knowledge from you two, so I will take it as a thank you gift."

"Please do not despise the small gift."

Seeing that Princess Ankang had said this, the two constables did not dare to continue to refuse, and immediately bowed their hands and thanked:

"Thank you for the reward, Miss."

After receiving the reward, the two officers looked at Princess Ankang even more favorably.

After walking together for a day today, they found that although this young lady had an extraordinary temperament, she did not have the feeling of being superior at all, and her attitude towards them was also very easy-going, which was completely different from the young masters and young ladies they had met before.

In the end, they were given such a thoughtful gift, how could they not feel good about it.

Princess Ankang and Princess Yuan'an left Wannian County Court accompanied by the eunuch who recorded and the eunuch in flowery clothes.

Princess Yuan'an looked at Princess Ankang and seemed a little thoughtful.

When she dismissed the two officers today, she did not give any rewards.

She didn't want to investigate the case in the first place. She just walked around casually during the day. Although she had visited the case, she mostly inquired about the parade of the courtesan tonight.

It's not that Princess Yuan An didn't understand these things, but she just felt that it was unnecessary.

They were just two small officials in the county government. They might never meet again in this life. Why bother so much?

After all, Princess Yuan An was the legitimate daughter of the queen. She had always met people who were either rich or noble, so her vision was particularly high.

This couldn't be said to be her fault, but a habit that she was born with and developed over a long period of time.

It was difficult for ordinary people to catch Princess Yuan An's eye.

Wannian County Government was not far from the East Market, and it only took a quarter of an hour to walk.

And now it was getting dark, but the flow of people on the street did not decrease.

These were people who had been busy all day, rushing home to eat and rushing to spend money.

Most of those who came out of the bustling and lively market were going home.

Those in the opposite direction were rushing to start their nightlife.

It is not cheap to buy a house in those prosperous markets.

And it is not very convenient to live in such places, because there is no quiet time from morning to night.

And compared to selling houses, it is obviously more profitable to convert them into shops.

Therefore, there are not many people living in the markets near the East Market, most of them are people who come to work and consume.

Princess Ankang and Princess Yuanan also followed the crowd to the East Market.

The two handsome young men soon attracted the attention of many people.

Especially some young ladies who were traveling together, looking at Princess Ankang and Princess Yuanan with their eyes fixed.

Their appearance, as well as the majestic guards behind them, deeply attracted these young ladies who were in love and ignorant of the world.

Some people on the road saw through the two princesses' disguises, but no one said it. Instead, they watched other young ladies with relish and were fascinated by these two young ladies dressed as men.

People are just crazy about flowers, there is no need to burst this bubble, which will only make people unhappy.

As long as there is no harm, a little illusion can bring great happiness, which is worth it.

And those who have a little experience will soon see through the clumsy disguises of Princess Ankang and Princess Yuanan.

They have not systematically learned the skills of disguise.

This is a big question, and Shang Zongguan has shown his skills in front of Li Xuan before.

The parade of courtesans is a famous landscape in the capital, which inevitably makes some girls curious about what these courtesans who make men linger look like.

In addition, the atmosphere in Daxing is relatively open, and girls with better family conditions can go out to play together even at night.

Of course, they will have guards around them.

When they go together, it is also to concentrate the power of the guards to give them more sense of security.

After all, few women are successful in martial arts, and they will always suffer losses when encountering conflicts.

When encountering an unreasonable playboy, the combined family backgrounds of several girls can help to hold him back.

However, due to the special atmosphere of Daxing, if a man bullies a weak woman in public, he will be attacked by a group of people and then handed over to the patrolling martial arts officer for punishment.

This is not a question of whether to punish or not, it is mainly a shame.

Whoever does such a thing will be laughed at for the rest of his life.

Of course, this is when the other party is a weak woman.

If the woman is also strong, she can fight fairly and resolve the dispute, and outsiders will never intervene.

But no matter who wins or loses, both sides will applaud and cheer.

In the final analysis, Daxing values ​​martial arts, and there is no distinction between men and women.

As long as you have strength, whether you are a man or a woman, you can go on stage to fight.

But if you bully others by taking advantage of your power, you will never be tolerated by people of the same class.

It’s okay once or twice, but if you do it every day, it will only make people despise you.

This kind of thing, no matter how many times you have heard it, it is more real to experience it in person.

Li Xuan lay on Princess Ankang's shoulder, curiously watching the endless stream of people, feeling the so-called Daxing atmosphere.

At least, Li Xuan felt that the atmosphere in the capital was quite relaxed. Everyone looked like a peaceful country, without the kind of gloomy mood.

When they arrived at the East Market, the gong sounded, indicating the closing of the market. It seemed that they came at the right time.

And today's East Market was obviously different from yesterday.

The main street running through the east and west gates was full of beautiful red lanterns, reflecting the whole sky red.

Along the way, there were gorgeous stages at the door of each brothel, which were still being decorated in a hurry.

These stages will carry the courtesans of each family for a grand parade.

Each stage has its own style and merits, and obviously has its own theme.

The East Market, which is about to close, is much more lively than the one they visited yesterday, and it is almost impossible to get through the streets.

Even so, there were still many people going into the East Market.

"It's so lively!"

Even though she had seen the East Market during the day, Princess Yuan An couldn't help but exclaim.

Princess Ankang also looked at the crowded crowd in front of her with sparkling eyes.

Beside them, there was a lady in flower clothes guarding them, so they squeezed out a space in the crowd.

Princess Ankang and Princess Yuan An did not suffer any crowding at all.

They walked along this red light street leisurely and watched.

Tonight, every brothel did its best to decorate itself very beautifully.

There were even more vendors on the road than during the day.

Perhaps because today is the day for the Oiran to parade, they specially opened stalls at night.

According to the flow of people tonight, they are probably willing to work overtime.

As long as they make more money, what does it matter if they work overtime for one night?

Princess Ankang and Princess Yuan An walked along the red light street and saw the prosperity of the East Market at night.

Just listening to the talk of passers-by, the parade of the courtesan will not start for half an hour.

"Sister, why don't we find a place to sit for a while."

Princess Yuan'an shouted in Princess Ankang's ear.

The surrounding noise was too noisy. If she didn't shout, the other party couldn't hear what she said at all.

Princess Ankang nodded and began to look for a suitable place to rest and use it as a place to stay tonight.

Even if they were energetic, they couldn't play on the street all night. They had to find a place to sleep in advance.

There were so many people in the East Market tonight. If they didn't arrange it early, they might have no place to sleep.

They searched along the street all the way, but they all felt that it was not appropriate.

The young ladies soliciting customers on the street were much more enthusiastic than during the day.

Because of this enthusiasm, they also had less cloth on their bodies.

On the street, Princess Ankang and Princess Yuan'an blushed.

Moreover, along the way, these coolly dressed young ladies were enthusiastic towards everyone, but they just ignored Princess Ankang and Princess Yuanan.

Li Xuan knew that it was because the two girls were too clumsy in dressing up as men, which was seen by these sharp-eyed young ladies.

Some places were not suitable for receiving female guests, so they did not solicit them directly.

They also tried to follow them into some lively places, but were politely asked out by others, saying that it was not convenient to invite them in.

Family members know their own affairs, and they also know that their disguises did not deceive others, so it is not good to entangle too much.

When they walked to the crossroads of the East Market, Princess Ankang suddenly brightened up and pointed to a store in front and said:

"Yuanan, what do you think of that store?"

Everyone looked in the direction pointed by Princess Ankang, and saw a sign with flying dragons and phoenixes.

[Hu Yulou]

"Hey, isn't this the place?"

Obviously Princess Yuanan also remembered the name on the sign.

I heard from Zhao Si before that the conflict between him and Hou San was because they both fell in love with a new Hu girl in Hu Yulou.

The Hu Yulou mentioned by Zhao Si must be this one.

"Why don't we give it a try?"

Princess Ankang suggested.

They were both afraid of being rejected now, and wondered if this house would receive them.

As a result, Princess Ankang and Princess Yuan'an were warmly received as soon as they walked to the door of Hu Yulou.

A group of blonde and blue-eyed Hu girls wearing transparent gauze surged up like a tide, surrounding Princess Ankang and Princess Yuan'an.

These Hu girls wanted to stick their dazzling white bodies to them, but were stopped by the eunuchs in flowery clothes.

These Hu girls had obviously received distinguished guests with guards before, and they did not dare to move forward according to the rules, but gathered a few steps away and greeted them.

"What handsome young men!"

"Young men, do you want to come in and play some games together? The bed in our Hu Yulou is very soft."

"If you like quietness, there are private rooms available. It's absolutely quiet."

The Hu Jis all spoke fluent Mandarin, which made Li Xuan feel a little confused.

Li Xuan had heard that there was a vast Western Region west of Daxing.

These Hu Jis came from there.

There are many tribes in the Western Region, just like these Hu Jis in front of him, some with blonde hair and blue eyes, some with wheat skin, and some with white hair and silver eyes...

If you distinguish them by the color of their pupils, I'm afraid you can count quite a few of them among these Hu Jis.

Therefore, they are also called Semu people by the people of Daxing.

What's more, these Hu Jis have some physical features different from those of the women in Daxing, and their curves are exaggerated, which makes the two girls feel inferior.

Princess Ankang and Princess Yuan'an didn't realize that their eyes were already unconsciously glued to the breasts and buttocks of these Hu Ji, and they couldn't move away.

It seems that some things are attractive to both men and women.

Thank you for your monthly ticket support.

I'm used to the big screen, and I'm almost blinded by the mobile screen!
