Chapter 421

Capital·Baihuafang

The capital city is at the foot of the emperor, there are not many officials, gentry and students coming and going, businessmen from the wealthy side even come and go, and there are many people who come several times a year.

As for the brothel and Chuguan, because of these people's spending a lot of money, they are divided into three or six grades, and everyone earns a lot of money.

This first class is not only because of the good location and internal environment, but also because the girls inside are beautiful and versatile, and there is a background behind them who can be regarded as an umbrella in the capital.

Baihuafang is such a gold-selling cave. It is located in the bustling area of ​​the capital, not far from Qi Wangfu. , unless it is licensed, the highest can only be three floors.

However, the Baihuafang on the third floor occupies quite a large area. If you enter from the front door, if you want to go around inside, it may take some time. The woman was hooked out of her soul and stumbled her feet.

This kind of place is full of popularity, there are many people coming and going, and the real identity is not even pursued. It is the most suitable for collecting information, and it is also very suitable for meeting dangerous people in the capital.

Especially when it comes to the Yaozu, the Qinglou Chuguan can also cover one or two.

"For those who are not of my race, their hearts must be different!"

At this time, on the third floor, in a room that Baihuafang had never let outsiders in since its opening, King Qi was standing in front of the window, looking at the busy traffic downstairs with a solemn expression.

In the room, there is still the smell left by the unsatisfactory conversation just now, which condenses the unhappiness that both of them have.

"Come here." Suddenly, King Qi turned around and shouted, a man in Tsing Yi came in immediately outside the door, and bowed his head respectfully: "My lord."

"Go, send the specially collected stack of books and documents here." King Qi ordered with a blank expression.

The man in Tsing Yi responded immediately, and quietly backed out.

While waiting, a young girl came in, served tea to King Qi respectfully, and then retreated quietly.

Anyone who likes to spend a lot of money to hold oirans will recognize that this girl is the rising star of Baihuafang, which won the oiran last year. She is usually cold and affectionate, and she is excellent in piano and chess. In his circle, he is definitely outstanding.

But in front of King Qi, she was quiet and respectful, no different from ordinary maids.

King Qi just rolled his eyelids, and there was no movement, drinking tea quietly.

Although Qi also likes beautiful women, he has been a prince since he was a child, and now he is even a prince. He has always enjoyed the best, and women naturally do too.

The concubine came from a wealthy family, and the side concubine was also from a good background. Even the well-known concubines were the daughters of at least seventh-rank officials. He never gave a look to such a brothel girl.

But to the outside world, he has the reputation of being bold and not rejecting beauties, no different from the rich and powerful, relying on frequent visits to Baihuafang.

Except for a few people who know that this is King Qi's property, most people don't know it.

Not to mention secret channels.

King Qi's mansion was originally the mansion of the previous dynasty, and it was rewarded to King Qi. It was King Qi who found the records and found out the secret passage, so he built Baihuafang at the exit of the secret passage.

"My lord, here are the things." After a while, the sound of footsteps came again, and the voice of the man in Tsing Yi who had just left could be heard outside the door.

King Qi ordered him to come in, waited for everything to be placed on the table, and waved him down.

"Should we cooperate with it?" An irritability flashed in King Qi's eyes, and he forced himself to sit at the table, flipping through the books and documents that he had read more than once.

These were all collected by him after he started to have his own power as an adult, and some of them were sent to him by the monster race to show their sincerity.

He didn't know if he had read it once, but every time it gave him a different feeling.

In order not to affect his already unstable emotions, he now tries to seldom touch these things as much as possible, but after seeing the emissary of the Yaozu today, King Qi's mood was once again turbulent, and he had to find something to calm himself down Take a moment, otherwise, I am afraid it will be difficult to make a decision.

Some of the relevant books are official histories of previous dynasties, some are unofficial histories, and some are handbooks and diaries written by ancestors that some people kept in their own possession. King Qi is now flipping through them quickly.

Because he has read it more than once, some of the content he wants to read can be found quickly without having to look through it carefully.

"What is the relationship between Lord Long and Emperor Wei Shizu?" When he turned to the part of Lord Dragon, even though he had seen it more than once, King Qi still couldn't help but think about it again.

"There is an unofficial historical legend that the dragon girl in Panlong Lake Water Mansion is the child of the former emperor and the dragon king. If so, who is male and who is female? Could it be that Wei Shizu is a female disguised as a male? No, this is impossible. , that means the Dragon Lord is a female dragon?"

No matter how you think about it, both of them are impossible.

King Qi didn't believe any of them.

The dragon girl at the bottom of Panlong Lake is more likely to have no blood relationship with the royal family of the previous dynasty. Such rumors should be rumors made by people who were dissatisfied with the previous dynasty at that time.

After all, this kind of scandal, although the Dragon King and Dragon Girl were considered gods in the previous dynasty, cast a layer of mystery on the human emperors at that time.

However, the emperor, who is known as the one emperor through the ages, may not be happy with the foundation of good weather and peace in the world brought about by his ruling, but he is labeled as "selling himself to seek medical treatment".

"However, the most bizarre thing is the prophecy in Qing Nang Poetry about the concubine's seizure of power in the previous dynasty." Finger tapping on one of the documents, complex emotions flashed in King Qi's eyes.

When looking down at this prophecy again, I still can't help but feel that under the luck and fate, even the emperor of the world is just like an ant.

"The pomegranate blooms, and the plum tree gets its roots and shoots. The snow in the palace is three feet, and the concubine wins the world." Muttering this prophecy, King Qi thought that even though the previous dynasty got these four sentences, the country was still destroyed in the end. .

"If this prophecy is only understood literally, it will easily go astray."

"During the previous dynasty, because it was predicted that the courtiers and concubines intended to seize power and proclaim themselves emperor, many concubines were killed, but those who were intelligent and talented or who came from a military background with military power support, no matter whether they had children or not, five or six of them died of illness successively."

"This person died of illness one after another for many years. At least he was wearing a cloak of shame. However, in the famous Lenggong Tianhuo case in the previous dynasty, the mask was almost torn off. There are still different opinions."

At that time, the two concubines were in dispute, and each insisted on their own opinions. Because they were both favorite concubines and refused to give in to each other, they finally made a fuss in front of the emperor. As a result, both of them were thrown into limbo by the emperor's anger. A big fire broke out in the middle of the night and could not be extinguished, burning the Lenggong to ashes.

The emperor, who had been pleaded by the queen mother to agree to release the second concubine, was furious and a thorough investigation led to the involvement of the noble concubine, concubine De, and concubine Lan.

These concubines were all given to death.

Although the evidence is solid and irreproachable, the rumor that these concubines were all killed by the emperor because of the prophecy has never stopped in secret.

Even if a group of people were killed because of this, the rumors could not be suppressed.
