The empress is also very hot today

65 The Return
Soon, everyone in Chengjing heard that the Zuixiang Pavilion, an industry run by King Qi Tianzhe of Liang, was completely destroyed by a fire, leaving nothing left.

Zuixiang Pavilion has not been established in Chengjing for a long time, only less than five years, but in just five short years, Zuixiang Pavilion has become the most profitable industry in Chengjing. It's just that the person who opened it is Liang Wang, the younger brother of the current emperor, and Zuixiang Pavilion is a brothel, and the girls inside are famous for their beautiful water spirits.

It is said that most of these girls were captured by Qi Tianzhe in Chengjing or other cities. Some were robbed in the street, and some were directly exterminated. Only by doing their own worth can they be left in the cabinet by the bustard. If they end up with no one to patronize, their fate will only be worse.

If one can seek one's death, it would be a pleasure, but one's fate is often brought up to make people shudder.

Faced with this kind of thing, people dare not speak out.

Moreover, Zuixiang Pavilion has a large number of customers visiting it every day. The interior is rotten and luxurious, and there are wine pools and meat forests. Ordinary people can't imagine the darkness in it.

But now, a big fire has been burning for a full day, even if the guards and servants all over the city in Liang Wang's mansion ran to put out the fire, it was of no avail. A huge and luxurious Drunken Fragrance Pavilion, which was originally in good shape, has completely become ruins.

There is no intact tile inside.

"Have you heard that the Zuixiang Pavilion was completely burned down by a fire?"

"I've heard, it's said that it was the wrath of the gods, and that Qi Tianzhe himself was burned to death!"

"It was well burned, how could this Qi Tianzhe not be burned to death, it's a pity that he didn't burn all those fellows who visit the kiln all day long!"

"Hush... Keep your voice down, everyone in Chengjing is in danger now that something like this happened, be careful not to be overheard."

"So what if you hear it, Qi Tianzhe is full of crimes by robbing civilian girls. I heard that many thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls were brutally exterminated because they were taken in by him. It's his fate that such villains don't get burned to death! "

"Haha, since such a happy thing happened, why don't we have a hot pot meal together?"

"Okay, let's get the hot pot out of the water and go?"

Since then, people have started to talk about it. They dare to say it now because they dare not say a word to Liang Wang on ordinary days. The whole city is his eyes and ears. All of them were wooed out, and they became a whispered conversation piece after dinner.

……

At the same time, at the city gate in the north of the city.

Because of the fire in the brothel Zuixiang Pavilion and the fact that Liang Wang Qi Tianzhe was almost burned to death in Chengjing, the whole Chengjing was completely messed up, and people like Jiang Tae Kyung would often hang out with the guards Among them, when they have nothing to do, they will seize the passing convoys for interrogation.

Jiang Taijing would order them to strictly guard against people entering and leaving, and even gave a death order. If they saw a carriage from Taichang Mansion, no matter what it was transporting, they would stop it and check it.

In fact, they are also in a dilemma. The masters of the two houses are masters they can't afford to offend. If you help one person, you are offending the other person. However, Qi Tianzhe was violent before, and the emperor moved his capital. His power and power are even more powerful , these city guards absolutely dare not offend him.

But now after a big fire, the situation has changed. For a whole day, no one from Prince Liang's Mansion appeared among the guards.

"Bah! Yes!"

The officers and soldiers guarding the city spat in the direction of Zuixiang Pavilion and said viciously.

time flies.

A few hours later, the sun was shining, and two carriages arrived at the north city gate, one behind the other.

Watching the two carriages approaching, the defenders wanted to come over and ask for a check. The leading soldier came over immediately, "What are you doing?"

"My lord, I have some business to go out of the city." The man driving the carriage smiled honestly.

"In this carriage of yours...are you carrying people or goods?"

The man driving the horse in the first carriage smiled. He was none other than Dahai, one of the three who followed Ran Tong from the manor to Chengjing. Aqiang and Houzi stayed in Chengjing to run the hot pot shop, he was responsible for transporting the people in the carriage back to the manor.

In the carriage behind him, there were seventeen girls covering their mouths and not daring to speak out.These girls had nowhere to go, some of their families were ruined, and some were sold to Zuixiang Pavilion by their parents. They were afraid that they would be retaliated by Qi Tianzhe if they stayed in Chengjing. Qi Tianzhe's life and death were unknown, and they were still afraid of Qi Tianzhe and the Liang Palace.

Now there is a place for them to go, even if the road ahead is bumpy, even if the end is barren, it is still a hundred times better than this prosperous place.

This is an extremely important mission. Originally Dahai Aqiang and Houzi were scrambling to be the horsemen for this mission. For no other reason than to return to the manor, the three of them almost got into a fight, so they drew lots. The decision is made by God!
If it weren't for Abu bringing the eldest lady back early this morning, the three of them might really fight.

"My lord, please wait a moment."

Dahai, who won the lottery, was always in a good mood. He smiled and took out the documents from his arms, and handed them to the officers and soldiers.

This is the customs clearance document of the Taichang Mansion.

Glancing at the document, the soldier was a little hesitant, but at this time there was no one from Liang Wangfu, and he didn't dare to offend Shangguan Yuce at will, so he ordered someone to open the city gate.

"Thank you, sir!"

"Hurry up and go."

The soldiers hurriedly urged, they didn't want to get involved with Liang Wangfu, and they didn't want to offend Shangguan Yuce.

The two carriages walked out of Chengjing one after the other, and embarked on the way back to the manor.

"drive!"

Dahai drove the carriage out of the city gate, and when the city gate was closed, he poked his head out and yelled at the carriage behind.

"Master Abu, please ask the leader...Miss, should we speed up or move forward slowly?"

On the carriage behind him, Abu, who was driving the carriage, knocked on the carriage.

Ran Tong actually heard the voice of the sea, and she told Abu with some embarrassment.

"Let's go quickly, and we'll talk about it when we get to Youzhou."

Ran Tong recalled what happened yesterday in the ruins of Zuixiang Pavilion, and now she is a little embarrassed to talk to Abu.

Then Ran Tong heard what Abu said with his not-so-fluent Central Plains accent and Dahai driving in the carriage ahead.

Afterwards, the two carriages finally set foot on the road back to the manor.

"drive!"
