Datang: Hiding private money, exposed by Xiao Sizi

Chapter 586: Noisy! Let’s go!

Han Min said: "Sir Qin is a prime minister with a broad mind, so he won't be so fussy about a few meals."

Qin Wenyuan couldn't refute this.

It seemed that if I said anything more, I would really be hungry.

Wang Xiaohua watched the two people bickering with a smile.

She ate the meal Qin Wenyuan had prepared and watched the two of them bickering. Suddenly, she felt that life seemed more beautiful and peaceful than ever before.

The person you like is right in front of you.

I can also eat the meals he prepared for me.

You can also see your favorite person quarreling with your good friends.

It seems that all the good things in this world have arrived at this moment.

"very nice."

Wang Xiaohua said softly.

Full of wine and food.

Wang Xiaohua stood up and went to clean up the dishes.

Han Min's face was flushed red from drinking.

He looked at Qin Wenyuan and said with a smile, "Sir Qin, this Miss Wang is really nice. I think she is also interesting to you. Why don't you consider it?"

Qin Wenyuan smiled and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Xiaohua is grateful to me for giving her a new life and wants to repay me. There is no mess like you think."

is it?

Han Min always felt that what Lord Qin said was a little wrong.

He discovered it while eating just now.

Wang Xiaohua had a strong desire to possess the dishes cooked by Lord Qin himself.

Except for the few bites she ate at the beginning, Wang Xiaohua ate them all.

At first he thought Wang Xiaohua might be hungry, but when he saw that Wang Xiaohua finished Qin Wenyuan's dish and didn't eat any other dishes, he knew that something was wrong with Wang Xiaohua.

Then he secretly followed Wang Xiaohua several times.

He found that Wang Xiaohua would always look at Qin Wenyuan inadvertently.

All of this indicates that Miss Wang has some special feelings for Lord Qin.

It’s just that Lord Qin is usually so smart, why is he so dull now?

Han Min couldn't figure it out, but seeing that Qin Wenyuan didn't have such an idea, she didn't say anything more.

He looked at Qin Wenyuan and asked, "Sir Qin, will you go directly to the Dali Temple to take up your duties next, or will you take a few days off?"

Qin Wenyuan thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, let me rest for a few days."

"Your Majesty has spoken, so you should take a good rest for a few days!"

Han Min said, "You were in danger every step of the way in Nanzhao. After finally returning to the Tang Dynasty, you were quickly involved in a case and never got a rest."

"Although you are very capable, Master Qin, even the most capable people need to combine work with rest."

"Not getting enough rest and being too tired are not good things."

Qin Wenyuan nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm not to the point where I feel uncomfortable if I don't work."

"But I do have some things to do."

"So I'll take advantage of these few days of rest to do it."

Han Min asked curiously, "What is Lord Qin going to do?"

Qin Wenyuan smiled and said, "Go to a house, and then go to the rouge shop."

"To a house? To a rouge shop?"

Han Min blinked.

Very confused.

He didn't quite understand what Qin Wenyuan meant.

Qin Wenyuan smiled and said, "Don't think too much about it. These are my private matters. I don't need to bother you."

When Han Min saw that Qin Wenyuan characterized the matter as a private matter, she knew that Qin Wenyuan did not want her to follow him.

He nodded sensibly: "Okay, I understand."

"But if Lord Qin needs anything, just let me know. I may not be able to help you much in other places, but I can still do a lot of things in Chang'an City."

Qin Wenyuan smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, when have you ever seen me being polite to you?"

Han Min smiled innocently.

Qin Wenyuan stretched lazily.

Seeing that Wang Xiaohua had already packed up and returned, he said, "It's getting late, you all should go back."

Han Min has long been accustomed to going back to sleep after eating.

So he naturally said goodbye to Qin Wenyuan and Wang Xiaohua and left.

After Han Min left, Lu Qinwenyuan looked at Wang Xiaohua and asked, "Have you found a place to live?"

Wang Xiaohua nodded and said, "There is an old woman who rents out a house near the Dali Temple. I asked the price and it's not expensive. The old woman lives alone now. She has two houses in a yard. In order to reduce some pressure, she rents out one of them."

"The environment and everything else were pretty good, so I rented it."

........................

Qin Wenyuan nodded slightly and said, "You have a lot of experience in the martial arts world, so I trust your judgment. If you think it's okay, then stay."

"Do you have enough money? If not, I can ask the Dali Temple to advance you some salary."

Wang Xiaohua shook her head and said, "Don't worry, sir. Although I have given most of my money to the poor over the years, I still have to survive, so I have saved some. Although the amount is not much, I can still pay the rent."

Qin Wenyuan knew Wang Xiaohua's character. She was not the kind of person who liked to rely on others.

So since Wang Xiaohua refused his help, Qin Wenyuan didn't say anything more.

He said, "According to the schedule, the others will arrive in the next two days. Please pick them up for me and take them to Dali to take up their posts. I have already informed Mr. Chu, and he will make arrangements for you."

Wang Xiaohua understood that Qin Wenyuan was going to investigate the clues found in Beidou Temple at that time.

She nodded directly and said, "Don't worry, Master Qin. I will help them settle down properly."

The next day.

Qin Wenyuan didn't open his eyes until it was bright.

He looked at the piercing sunlight coming in through the window, feeling the warmth on his body, and Qin Wenyuan smiled slightly.

He hadn't had such a peaceful sleep for a long time.

Ever since leaving Chang'an and heading for Nanzhao years ago, Qin Wenyuan has been burdened with one burden after another.

Now, back home.

It was as if all the shackles were released in an instant.

Although my home is small and shabby.

But this is the only place where Qin Wenyuan can feel free from any pressure and relax.

It's a pity that Changle is not here. He went out of the city to take charge of the tea business. Alas, it's a great pity.

He slept for a full five hours.

Now, it's almost noon.

Qin Wenyuan stretched and stood up refreshed.

Get dressed and wash up.

Qin Wenyuan walked out of the house.

He came to a small stall and ordered a naan and a bowl of mutton soup. While eating, Qin Wenyuan chatted with the stall owner.

This is Qin Wenyuan's regular dining place. In the past, when he didn't want to cook, he would come here to drink a bowl of steaming mutton soup and eat a large portion of baked naan.

That feeling is so exciting.

"Master Qin, I also went to the Dali Temple yesterday to watch you solve a case. You are really amazing. You can solve cases like a god. You solved a case from ten years ago easily."

The stall was not busy at the moment, so the boss sat on Qin Wenyuan and spoke with a smile.

Qin Wenyuan smiled and said, "It's not that great, it's just that leaves have their specialties."

"For example, your baked naan and mutton soup. I have tried many other places, but none of them are as good as yours."

“So you are also very good in the baked naan and mutton soup industry.”

When the stall owner heard what Qin Wenyuan said, he immediately smiled.

While wiping his hands, he said, "Master Qin is really good at speaking. He is indeed well-read. I am a rough man. Although I understand some principles, I can't express them. Master Qin explained them clearly in just a few words."

Qin Wenyuan smiled and said, "It's never too late to study."

The stall owner shook his head and said with a smile, "I'm old and I really don't have the energy. But my son was praised by a teacher a few days ago. He said he has a chance to become a juren. If he is lucky and works harder, he may become a jinshi and become a real official."

Qin Wenyuan said: "Congratulations. Among the scholars in the Tang Dynasty, there are very few who can become Juren. Your son has surpassed many people."

"If he can really become a Jinshi, then I am also looking forward to becoming a colleague with your son."

Qin Wenyuan has always been very kind to these lower-class people.

He is not arrogant and even cracks a joke occasionally.

It is very popular among the people.

When the stall owner heard this, he became even happier.

He said, "Your Excellency has not been here for a long time. I am treating you to this meal. Please do not refuse."

Qin Wenyuan shook his head: "No, it's not easy for you to run a small business. As an official, I can't add to your burden..."

The stall owner repeatedly declined, but Qin Wenyuan was firm in his attitude, so he had no choice but to say, "I went into the mountains a few days ago to get some mountain products. I'll give this to you, Master Qin. This is my gift to you, Master, you can't refuse it anymore."

"If you refuse again, I will no longer do business with you, my lord."

Qin Wenyuan had no choice but to say, "Okay, then I'll try your other cooking skills."

The stall owner grinned and said, "Okay, please wait a moment, sir."

As he said that, he hurried into the kitchen to fry some mountain products.

Before long, he had fried a whole plate of mountain products.

The stall owner was afraid that Qin Wenyuan would have to wait for a long time, so he hurried out with the mountain products.

But when he came out, he found that Qin Wenyuan was gone.

Originally, there were some copper coins on the table where Qin Wenyuan ate.

He counted them and found that these copper coins were worth more than the money for the baked naan and mutton soup.

He knew that Lord Qin had left the money from speculating in mountain products for himself.

Lord Qin clearly didn't eat his own mountain products, but he left money for himself...

This made the stall owner feel suddenly warm inside.

How could he not respect and love such a Qin Wenyuan and such a Lord Qin?

Qin Wenyuan was already on the road a street away from the stall.

He looked at the graceful girl in front of him, a smile appeared on his face, and he said: "Your Highness, you are much earlier than the agreed time."

Kanglefang is located on the south side of Chang'an City. Among the 108 blocks in Chang'an City, its area is considered large.

Apart from the high-end neighborhoods where royal relatives, nobles, and court officials lived, Kangle Village was the largest.

At the same time, Kang Le Fang is also the most popular place.

At night in Chang'an City, there are some places without curfew, so you can have fun all night long.

Among them is Kang Le Fang!

The two of them walked leisurely for two quarters of an hour and finally arrived at Kanglefang.

As soon as they arrived at Kangle Square, they could clearly feel the popularity of this place.

There are currently millions of people in Chang'an City, which can be said to be a truly giant city.

With such a large population, the entire Chang'an city is very lively.

As they walked along, they could also feel the popularity and bustle of Chang'an City.

But compared with the bustle in Kanglefang, the difference between that kind of bustle is really huge!
Inside Kanglefang, there were exquisite buildings on both sides of the street.

Brothels and teahouses stood on both sides of the street.

When walking on the street, you can clearly smell the fragrance of various rouge.

At the same time, you can hear the sweet voices of the young girls.

Women dressed in colorful clothes stood in the attic, waving their handkerchiefs and winking at passers-by on the street, trying to attract some customers for themselves.

And often, many men were easily dragged away.

However, Qin Wenyuan's purpose was not here.

He was going to look for the house left behind by Goddess Beidou, so naturally he didn't want to waste time here.

So he nodded very cooperatively and said, "Okay."

In Kangle Square, each functional area is separated independently.

In other words, the brothels and gambling houses were concentrated together.

So once you leave the area of brothels and theaters, you will never encounter other brothels and theaters again.

Now, they reached the gambling area.

Compared to the previously bustling brothels and theaters area, the gambling house was obviously a little quieter.

However, this desolation is relative.

Compared to other places in Chang'an City, this place is still very lively.

But compared to the sweet laughter of those girls and the hesitation of many men who were unable to move and standing there, the noise here was a little quieter.

But as we went deeper into the gambling area, the noise of "betting big or small" became louder.

Qin Wenyuan watched as some people were thrown out of the gambling house and some were beaten up for making trouble because of losing money. He said calmly, "In this world, people's hearts are never satisfied."

"Wine, sex, money and anger are things that always confuse people's minds."

“Not everyone can get out of it and stay sober and calm.”

"In fact, the vast majority of people will indulge in wine, sex, money and power."

"So, it is very difficult to stop these things. Once the court does not allow it, then all of this will be hidden underground."

“When that happens, it will be much harder to manage.”

"So, since we can't completely cut them off, why not control them all together and have the court conduct strict control."

"In this way, we can increase revenue for the court while also controlling the scale and compressing the influence to the limit."

A plain wooden door was closed.

Behind the gate is a place that looks like a courtyard.

There are three houses on the front and left.

They are the main house, wing rooms, woodshed and warehouse.

This house looks quite old.
