After rebirth, she was forced into marriage by the sickly prince

Chapter 80 80, Investigate Du Niang

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

Now, let's talk about Xiao Qiyu's side.

The person he was looking for, "Du Niang", was in Wangchun Tower.

Wangchun Tower is a large ecstasy cave in Tiandu, under the name of Jiaofangsi.

The girls here are all official prostitutes, and most of them are the daughters of criminal officials who are imprisoned by their fathers and brothers, or the wives and concubines of criminal officials.Most of them are familiar with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and each of them has some color.

The girls in Wangchun Tower are also divided into three, six, and nine classes.

Lowly girls, whether they are traffickers or pawns, have to serve.

Noble girls can perform arts for the emperor, and even just perform arts without selling themselves, and can earn a lot of gold and silver every day.However, as long as you live in a lowly place for a day, you can only stay in this ghost place and serve others with love.

For them, it is extremely difficult to get rid of citizenship - it is not something that ordinary powerful people can do well.

Opposite Wangchun Tower, there is an ordinary tea shop.

The tea pile business is thriving, and merchants keep coming and going. Here, you can not only buy tea, but also taste the best tea soup, and you can also do the tea and pastry business of Wangchunlou.

At noon that day, a lot of purple chrysanthemums were hung on the second floor of the tea pile. They were neatly arranged in a row, which was very beautiful and attracted many people to watch.

The servant girl Jiaojiao in the Wangchun Building saw it, her eyes flashed, and she immediately went to her girl and said, "The tea leaves are gone, girl, I should go to the opposite side to buy some. Give me some money!"

"Bring a pack of pastries along the way." The girl waved the round fan and gave the money.

Jiaojiao thumped down, exited the Wangchun Tower, crossed the not-so-wide street, got into the tea pile opposite, and called out crisply: "The shopkeeper, buy tea."

There are many tea guests sitting on the tea pile, some are cracking melon seeds, some are chatting, it is very lively.

The shopkeeper was a middle-aged man in his forties, smiling like a Maitreya Buddha, he came over and asked, "Excuse me, what kind of tea do you want?"

"Three taels of Xinbi Luo, four taels of Xingui, five taels of scented tea...these are beautifully wrapped, and my girl wants to give them away. In addition, I will also order a bag of sweet-scented osmanthus cakes. If you want the freshly baked ones, you must have teeth."

"Xingui is still frying, osmanthus cake is still steaming, why don't girls go inside and wait?"

The shopkeeper let the person into the inner room, pressed a mechanism, and let the person enter a secret room.

Candles were lit in the secret room, as bright as day.

Jiaojiao came to a screen, and there was a person standing behind the screen, she only saw the tall figure of that person.

"I pay homage to the ghost-faced gentleman."

Jiaojiao respectfully made a big gift to that person.

The man put his hands behind his back in the center, and asked deeply:

"I want to ask you something, is there someone named Du Niang in your building?"

"Have."

"What is your identity in the building?"

"Du Niang is a second-class geisha, she only plays music for some respectable masters, and occasionally receives guests."

"What does she look like, what kind of guests does she pick up every month, what's so special about her?"

Jiaojiao lowered her head, thought for a while, and then respectfully said: "You are pretty and talented. She is the empress of the criminal officer, and I am a young lady. For the past two years, every other month, Du Niang will receive a senior lady. A not-so-good-looking gentleman. On this day, she only received him. I heard that the gentleman intends to redeem her from his low status, but he hasn't saved enough money..."

"But it's called Lu Dazhi?"

"It's a man surnamed Lu. I heard that he works in water conservancy. He works in the fifth prince's mansion... It's a pity that the fifth prince is clean. If he wants to redeem Du Niang, he can't do it in a year or so."

Jiaojiao recalled it for a while, and reported everything she knew.

The person behind the screen is none other than Asuo.

　Second watch.See you tomorrow.
