It is understandable that Wang Pang did not know that Jin Lian would have feelings. Although Wang Pang's title is not low, he has not been in the officialdom for a long time. [High-quality update] What's more, Wang Pang was appointed by the late Emperor Renzong, and most of them were idle jobs.In this way, he seldom hangs out in the officialdom, so naturally he doesn't know many things, such as the Golden Lotus Club. When Wang asked about it, Hou Shuxian pondered for a while: "My lord, you were in Manchuria yesterday. Could it be that Chun Yuan met someone from the Golden Lotus Society?"

"Exactly! It was the people from the Golden Lotus Club who revealed the news to Yang Yizhen about the prince going to Dali. There is a woman named Lin Xiuxiu, who is said to be the descendant of Li Yu and his concubine Miao Niang in the Southern Tang Dynasty. She has always been dissatisfied with this dynasty. So I want to use Yang Yizhen's power to hold the prince hostage."

Hou Shuxian was taken aback for a moment: "Why did the prince never bring up such a big matter, how will the prince and the crown prince deal with Lin Xiuxiu?"

Wang Pang shook his head: "I didn't think about how to deal with it at the time, and I saw that the crown prince felt pity for Lin Xiuxiu, besides, what big things can these women with the strength of a chicken do?! In front of Yang Yizhen last night, I couldn't even It was said that Zhao Xu was the crown prince, so Lin Xiuxiu was only asked to use the power of the Golden Lotus Society to help me find out the whereabouts of my son. As long as they are no longer enemies of the court, I think or can find a way to resolve this matter!" [

"Oh, oh!" Hou Shuxian frowned, and he shook his head lightly, thinking that it was a bit inappropriate for the prince to do so.Wanting to assassinate the prince is a big deal, not to mention that Hou Shuxian knows more than Wang Pang knows. "My lord, if you do this, you won't be afraid that others will say that you are acting for your own sake, so the prince's safety is a trifling matter?"

It's not that Wang Pang hadn't thought about this question. He said with a smile: "Mr. Hou, this Jinlian Society is definitely not as simple as Yang Yizhen said. Any descendants of Li Yu are all nonsense. If that's the case, I'm afraid it's too late to hide my identity." I suspect that they are just testing the court's bottom line by claiming this. And this Lin Xiuxiu is definitely not the leader of the Golden Lotus Society, I think there are other things behind it."

Hou Shuxian nodded: "My lord, I don't know exactly what the background of Jinlian will be. But it's not what Yang Yizhen said..."

"Oh?" Wang Pang frowned and listened carefully.

"My lord, in the Song Dynasty, there were official prostitutes, also known as camp prostitutes, who belonged to the imperial court, the imperial army, and local government offices. They coached and performed singing and dancing. When there were celebrations hosted by the government, official prostitutes usually performed on the spot. Greeting new officials When taking office or receiving past officials, and even officials having banquets, they are often invited to accompany the banquet, or perform songs and dances to add to the fun."

Wang Pang scratched his head, and he had some impressions in his mind that wherever he went, there was a reception, and sometimes there would be singing and dancing to add to the fun.Let’s just say that on the day when I first arrived in Yongzhou, there were performances by singers and dancers at the banquet in the palace.Usually, I am relatively numb to these things, and I thought it was a specialized group like the so-called "Art Troupe" later on.

Hou Shuxian went on to say: "As far as I know, official prostitutes are specially set up by the imperial court. There are some rich families who confiscated their homes and their daughters are prepared to be prostitutes, and some are trained as prostitutes since childhood. Official prostitutes are not just beautiful. All official prostitutes are designed to cater to The needs of civil servants are all poetry, calligraphy, and painting. The Golden Lotus Society that has sprung up in recent years is a club dedicated to cultivating high-ranking official prostitutes. It is unknown who runs it, but Golden Lotus will send a lot to various teaching workshops Girls of the right age. And once these official prostitutes get old and look bad, the Golden Lotus Society will be responsible for recalling them.”

It's kind of interesting, kind of like a training school for prostitutes.However, these official prostitutes all relied on the Golden Lotus Society. Even if the so-called "retired" returned to the Golden Lotus Society, they would use their opportunities to contact officials during official performances or escorts to get a lot of information.Thinking of this, Wang Pang nodded and smiled: "I understand. Regardless of whether what Yang Yizhen said is true or not, even if I gave Jin Lianhui a favor for this matter, it also left me with a false public interest. Mr. Hou, what are you worried about? That's not it?"

Hou Shuxian nodded hurriedly: "Exactly!"

"Isn't that just right? I'd like to see who is behind the Golden Lotus Society, haha. Thank you sir for reminding..."

Hou Shuxian shook his head, stood up and said, "Oh, my lord, you are really a newborn calf, why don't you worry about it. Just enjoy yourself, I will go to work..." Saying salute and farewell, he shook his head and went to the palace go outside.

Looking at his leaving back, Wang Pang fell into deep thought. If it was really like what Hou Shuxian said, then the background of the Golden Lotus Society cannot be underestimated. But since there is such a background, how could he tell Yang Yizhen about the prince's trip?She also thought of that Lin Xiuxiu from last night, a woman from a brothel, who quickly calmed down after undergoing a sudden change. I'm afraid that things inside are not as simple as they seem.

Wang Pang made up his mind that Lin Xiuxiu must be dealt with in this matter, and the truth must be dealt with one by one. Wang Pang took a deep breath and looked up to see that there were only a few guards standing outside the gate of the hall. There is no one else but myself.He stood up, and a maid came in and asked, "The princess asked if the prince would go back to the palace for dinner?"

"No, let's send lunch to the study!" Wang Pang said, and walked out of the main hall to the study at the back.It was almost noon at this time, and the weather in July and August was a bit hot.Except for the chirping of cicadas, the whole palace was extremely quiet.Wang Pang's study room is in a courtyard to the east of the garden. The guards at the gate of the courtyard saw Wang Pang's respectful salute, and Wang Pang nodded and walked towards the main room.

There are three north rooms in the front of the courtyard, and two side rooms in the east and west. The main room and the side rooms are connected by a corridor.At this time, there was a person sitting in the corridor in front of the ear room. Seeing Wang Pang entering the yard, he hurriedly greeted him. He asked excitedly, "My lord, you are back. What can I do today?" ?”

The person who spoke was Jia Xian. Yesterday he heard that he could come to the palace to work with the king. This kid was so excited that he didn't sleep well all night. He came to the palace early in the morning.

Seeing Jia Xian sitting in the corridor waiting for him, Wang Pang asked, "Why are you here?"

Jia Xian said naively: "Brother is ordered to study, I'm afraid to disturb him, so I just sit here and wait for your order."

brother?Wang, who was listening, was a little surprised. Looking towards the anteroom, the people in the room had already heard someone talking outside and opened the door.One is that Cai Jing stood awkwardly at the door, and Wang Pang laughed, knowing that Jia Xian must have misunderstood that Cai Jing was also his student.But Wang Pang also guessed more or less, it must be that Cai Jing put on some airs of the old man next to Wang Pang again. [

"Yuanchang! You settle down in Jia Xian's residence first, and then let him listen in the study."

"Yes!" Cai Jing answered with a bow.

The two watched Wang Pang enter the study, and Jia Xian leaned over to Cai Jing. Before Jia Xian could speak, Cai Jing said with a straight face: "Did you hear that? Master asked you to listen to the matter in the study. Is there anything you don't understand in the future?" Just ask me first."

"Hehe, good! Brother, please take care of me!"

Cai Jing looked at Jia Xian, the two men were about the same age, and he was very happy to hear Jia Xian call him a senior brother, but Jia Xian dared to raise opinions with the prince, but he himself did not dare.This somewhat made Cai Jing a little envious, and hearing that Jia Xian was very good at settling accounts, Cai Jing was really worried that Wang would not take him seriously with Jia Xian by his side in the future.He led Jia Xian outside, and said as he walked: "In the future, if you have any opinions with the prince, you must ask me first. Also, I heard that you are good at settling accounts?"

"Where, what I use is all trivial skills, but my senior brother's knowledge and handwriting are excellent, which I can't match." Jia Xian said what was in his heart, and he also talked about Cai Jing's heart, so he relaxed. , took Jia Xian and walked out: "I will take you to meet the princess first, and then let the steward of the inner palace settle you down!"

As soon as the two of them walked to the garden, they saw Zhang Ping walking towards them with a person. Cai Jing immediately dropped Jia Xian and went to meet them: "Brother He, you are back!"

"Haha, yes, Yuan Chang, why is your belly round again? Didn't you eat less delicious food here!" Seeing the foodie Cai Jing, Xie Libo couldn't help but pat Cai Jing's stomach, and joked with a smile .

"No way! You don't see that the prince has arrived in Yongzhou, and he has no time to look for delicious food, let alone us, who are so busy every day. By the way, the prince is in the study, and I will take you there. "He said excitedly following the impeachment bowl, Zhang Ping turned back to the courtyard of the study, and left Jia Xian aside again.

Xi Libo is no outsider to Wang Pang, and everyone in the family knows that this is Wang Pang's sworn brother.Zhang Ping knew that Wang Pang had finished his business and had already gone to the study, so he hurriedly brought him to see Wang Pang.Jia Xian was really envious of Cai Jing's greeting and the affectionate appearance of the two people. At the same time, he didn't know where to go, so he had to follow back to the study yard. Seeing three people joking and entering the study, Jia Xian had no choice but to be honest. Sitting on the porch waiting for Cai Jing to come out.When can I be like Cai Jing and Cai Yuanchang, and become the right arm of the prince!

Jia Xian took Cai Jing as a benchmark, and sat in a daze on the porch; next to Wang in the study, just neatly stacked scrolls, documents and letters on the case.The top one is a letter from the capital. When passing the garden just now, Wang Pang still remembered the scene of the children in the capital mansion playing football in the garden. Although the palace in Yongzhou is more generous than the palace in the capital, it is less The excitement and vigor of the capital mansion.Especially thinking of that little guy Tong Guan, I don't know how the kid is doing with his studies, he was about to open the letter to read it.Then I heard talking and laughing in the yard became lively, mixed with the loud sound of impeaching bowls.

During the discussion just now, Wang Pang also mentioned to Mr. Hou that he would almost leave by himself after Xie Libo came back.Wang Pang stood up and greeted him: "Brother He, you are finally back!"

"Hehe, isn't that right! Let me tell you, this time I brought back not only the merchant ships from Korea, but also Japanese slaves and Ryukyu. All I have to worry about all the way back is how your business in Yongzhou is going. If our first shot is fired, and foreigners will come to Yongzhou to do business in the future, then Yongzhou will be lively."

Wang Pang smiled and let the impeachment bowl in, Brother He came back just in time!Everything is ready for the Yongzhou market, and you are the only thing missing. "
