Different from the entanglement of the Ye family, Jiang Li is much easier. At least in the eyes of the servants of the Ye family, this second Miss Jiang is not used to anything at all. It seems that since she won't get anything from staying in Lizheng hall, she might as well leave. Besides, what she should know will always know, and she can't be in a hurry for a while. At this moment, she has more important things to do.
"Girl, where are we going now? Don't go too far. This is your first time to Xiangyang. Later, Zi lost his way and didn't know how to get back. We didn't take a carriage before we went out."
Xiangyang is no better than Yanjing. The noble lady of Yanjing decided to go out without a carriage. But in Xiangyang, whether to take a carriage or not depends on your preferences. It is also common for young ladies to go out on the street. It can be said that the folk custom is simple. Although they will be laughed at in Yanjing City, Jiang Li still likes this feeling here.
Very free.
"Nothing." Jiang Li said with a smile, "let's just walk along this street."
Tong'er didn't doubt him, but Bai Xue felt something wrong. Although she said she was just walking casually, Jiang Li's footsteps were clearly firm, as if she was determined to go somewhere. And Bai Xue has a feeling that Jiang Li is very familiar with Xiangyang. Just like the farmers they serve, they know where to plant food and where to plant fruits, and they won't be confused.
But tong'er said that Jiang Li was the first time to return to Xiangyang, and others said so, so it was probably his own illusion. Bai Xue shook her head and cleaned up the strange feeling in her brain.
But this intuition in my heart was soon confirmed.
After walking for a while, Jiang Li stopped.
"Girl?" Tong'er then stopped, thinking that Jiang Li was tired after walking, and hurriedly said, "are you tired? The maid helped you rest your feet?"
"No," said Jiang Li, "let's go in."
"Go in?" Tong'er looked forward in surprise. It seemed that there was only the courtyard door of an ordinary family in front of him, and he couldn't see anything special. Tong'er said: "... Girl, is this someone else's house? Where are we going in? Does the girl know the people inside?" She thought, how can Jiang Li know the people in Xiangyang? Apart from the Ye family, Jiang Li and Xiangyang have no intersection at all.
"It's not someone else," Jiang Li answered unexpectedly. "This is the back door of Xihua building."
"Cherish, cherish flower building?" Tong'er stammered and asked, "what is this place? A restaurant?" She vaguely felt that the name didn't sound very serious.
Jiang Li said with a smile, "it is the most famous brothel in Xiangyang."
Tong'er and Bai Xue were completely stunned.
……
"My Lord, Miss Jiang Er went to Xihua building."
As soon as this word came out, Lu Ji didn't swallow a mouthful of tea in the pavilion, "poof" spit it out.
Opposite him, the beauty in red was quick in eyes and quick in hands. "Pa" unfolded the folding fan and fanned all the tea sprayed by Lu Ji back, with a trace of disgust flashing in her eyes.
Poor Lu Ji, choked half to death by his saliva, and was doused by the tea bag that Ji fan came back. Half of his body was wet, so poor. I want to know when the handsome and elegant green shirt scribe fell to such a point. If Kong Liu's big old man was here, it would be another good laugh.
But Lu Ji didn't care about his embarrassment at the moment, but asked Wen Ji, "what you said is true? Did she go to Xihua building?"
"Indeed." Wen Ji said flatly, "and Miss Jiang Er walked in through the back door of Xihua building."
"Is there any difference between the back door and the front door?" Lu Ji was puzzled.
"Xihua building is the most famous brothel in Xiangyang. The guests inside are all noble people in Xiangyang. Noble people enter from the front door. If you have family members in your family, go to Xihua building to find someone, and then enter from the back door."
Lu Ji suddenly realized that it was so, understood. In short, the men came in through the front door, and the women who came to find their husband came in through the back door, in order to save face for the men. Speaking of it, this Xihua building is really considerate. No wonder it will become Xiangyang men's favorite brothel.
"But how does she know to go through the back door?" Lu Ji asked, "what did the Ye family tell her? Didn't the Ye family all stay clean and don't go to the brothel chuguan? Besides, she is a big miss. How did she talk about the brothel with the Ye family? Isn't she still very strange to the Ye family?"
Lu Ji is really confused. It's no wonder that no one can figure it out. The first thing for the first daughter of Yanjing city to come to Xiangyang is to go to the brothel and know the rules. It's incredible to enter through the back door.
Ji Heng didn't care about Lu Ji, but said quietly, "who is she going with?"
"Miss Jiang ER and her two servant girls, no one led the way."
Ji Heng: "then you observe, is she looking for it intentionally or accidentally passing by?"
"My Lord, my subordinates thought that she found it by herself." Wen Ji hesitated for a moment and said as he thought, "Miss Jiang Er seems to be no stranger to the road of Xiangyang. Lizheng hall is not close to Xihua building, but she still found it. She didn't go anywhere else until she found Xihua building."
"This..." Lu Ji tried to find a suitable explanation for Jiang Li's behavior. He said: "Miss Jiang er's memory has always been outstanding. At the beginning of the six arts school examination, her 'calligraphy ceremony' was the top. It is said that she returned to Beijing to study for only a few days, and it is impossible for her to remember."
"No." It was Wenji who denied him, and Wenji said, "even if she has the ability to never forget everything, from Yanjing to Xiangyang, and when she first came to a strange place, she will show vigilance and caution, and a sense of strangeness. But Miss Jiang Er didn't at all. She was very relaxed and bold, and seemed to have more than a blade to swim in Xiangyang."
When Wen Ji said this, he couldn't help recalling the picture when he lurked in the dark and followed Jiang Li. Jiang Li doesn't travel alone, but has two servant girls. It's precisely because the two servant girls around her are more different from Jiang Li's lattice. She is almost integrated with the streets of Xiangyang. She is like a Xiangyang person who grew up in Xiangyang. This sense of familiarity and intimacy is even more obvious than her in Yanjing city.
"She even knows the rules of the back door of the flower house. Of course, she can't underestimate it." Ji Chen smiled: "Jiang Li has been trying to return to Xiangyang, maybe for this. Wenji," he said calmly, "your people killed Jiang Li, and see what she did in Hualou and who she met."
"I also want to see what kind of surprise this Miss Jiang Er can bring us." He said with a smile.
