Since she had shown her face in front of others, she would probably be forced to receive a guest. She really couldn't believe that the old procuress wouldn't let her receive a guest. Now that the Ninth Princess had left, there was no one left to protect her.
When she heard that the Brothel Keeper had rejected everyone's request to meet them, she couldn't help but be shocked. The Brothel Keeper had actually made such a big promise, this was something she had never expected.
The song finally ended, and the people dispersed. Little Sister Li was so stunned that she couldn't fall asleep. She heard the faint sounds of laughter in front of her, and she kept feeling that all of this was like a dream.
"Little sister, are you asleep?" The bawd's voice sounded at her door.
Li Jun was like a hedgehog as she raised her guard. She put the scissors back into her sleeve and walked slowly to the door. When she opened the door, she saw that the old procuress was the only one there.
The old procuress smiled and entered the room, "You haven't slept yet? I knew you couldn't sleep, so I came to talk to you. "
"Mom, if you have anything to say, just say it." Little Sister Li said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.
The bawd looked at Li Jiayi for a while before sighing, "The wind and rain tower's water is very deep, and one can't do anything one wants. You have today to thank a single person, so you'll have to depend on yourself in the future."
Little Sister Li's heart skipped a beat. "What is Mama saying? I don't understand."
"It doesn't matter if you truly don't understand, or if you are just pretending to not understand, today I will make you understand." The old procuress looked at Li Jun shrewdly and slowly raised her teacup to taste her tea.
"As long as you don't leave the Wind and Rain Tower, your brother will also not leave. So, you deliberately approached the Ninth Prince, hoping to use your own body in exchange for freedom, right?"
Little Sister Li was silent. Just when the old procuress thought that she wouldn't answer, she raised her head and looked straight at her.
"I suspect that this pavilion belongs to the Ninth Prince, because other than his wife who can come and go as she pleases, I've never seen or heard of a woman from the Shangguan family who was sold here leaving alive."
The bawd couldn't help but to have a whole new level of respect for Li Jun. No one had thought of her like this before. She could be said to be the closest to the truth.
"I didn't expect you to be so smart, I've underestimated you in the end." The bawd put down her teacup and looked at her again.
"Even the most brainless person would become the most shrewd one in this kind of place." Little Sister Li smiled bitterly. She would rather be that brainless Little Sister Li. Unfortunately, time could not reverse itself.
"However, you are wrong. The reason why the ninth princess was able to leave the Wind and Rain Tower and come and go freely is because of the Ninth Prince. It is largely because of her hard work." The old procuress said earnestly.
Little Sister Li looked at her in disbelief.
The old procuress sighed. She knew the whole story very well. Other than the fact that the Wind and Rain House was a royal property, she did not care about anything else.
"You should know as well that the ninth princess and the ninth prince first met in my Wind and Rain Tower. The ninth princess was still a virgin at that time, and was the only descendant of the university." You should know as well that the ninth prince first met the ninth princess and the ninth prince first met in my Wind and Rain Tower.
"The Tenth Prince really likes the Ninth Prince's wife. So, he started a dispute with the Tenth Prince. In a fit of anger, the Tenth Prince gave him some medicine." The old procuress said vaguely. Sister Li had been in the brothel for so long, so she naturally knew what the medicine was. She was so embarrassed that her cheeks were flushed.
"You know Ninth Prince's body, how can he resist the medicine?" "At this point, the ninth princess ignored her own innocence and helped the ninth prince remove the medicinal properties from his body." The old procuress couldn't figure this out. The last thing she could think of was that the Grand Scholar must have mentioned the Ninth Prince to her daughter so often that she had already fallen in love with him. This explanation was the only reasonable one.
"So it's like that." Little Sister Li could not help but exclaim.
The old procuress glanced at Little Sister Li. "The Ninth Prince keeps saying that Xiaoyu is his wangfei. We can stop a sinner's daughter, but how can we stop her?"
Although the truth wasn't too different, it didn't affect the integrity of the story.
The old procuress smiled. "Later on, although the ninth princess entered the Wind and Rain Tower, she made a contract with this old one in advance. This old one cannot force her to do anything, her body is free, and she helps this old one earn more silver.
The old procuress looked at the pensive Little Sister Li, "You should understand this very well. Do you know how much money I've made today? It's double the amount I've earned in the past? Do you know why I didn't ask you to accompany me? Because the Ninth Princess once said, the value of your Ice Dance is far higher than the value of you sleeping with others. "
Little Sister Li was slightly angry, but she could not flare up.
"Do you think that this old woman's words are vulgar? Actually, this is a vulgar place, and everyone would expose their ugly side here. I have only seen one person who looks the same, and that's the Ninth Princess. Even you think that you're amazing, but you're nothing more than a vile person with a set behind your back."
After the old procuress finished speaking, she stood up and patted the dust off her non-existent body. "It's a shame that the ninth princess helped you out like this. You actually want to fight over her most treasured object."
There was only one person the bawd admired the most, and that was Fishy. She knew what Li Jun was thinking, but she still preferred to pull her over. If it was her, she would have done well to not add insult to injury.
"If she really wants to help me, then she should take us siblings and leave." Little Sister Li shouted.
The old procuress looked at Little Sister Li in pity, "Just you? Do you think everything will be fine once you leave this place? I dare to bet with you, without the Ninth Princess, even if you leave the Wind and Rain Tower unscathed, you would come back on your own in three days, begging me to take you in. "
Looking at the unconvinced expression on Sister Li's face, the bawd laughed contemptuously, "You better believe it or not. If you're not that noble, you'll find out from other girls why Yue Hong is obedient to me."
Yue Yuehong was one of the more important girls in the Wind and Rain Tower. She was beautiful and had a sweet mouth, but she was also the most lovable.
Little Sister Li was puzzled.
The next day, when she heard about Yue Hong, her complexion changed. She did not expect Yue Hong to be the most beautiful woman in the capital, the most aloof and aloof.
Little Sister Li couldn't help but want to see Yue Hong. She was a woman that was doted on by thousands of people, how could she willingly stay in the Wind and Rain Tower?
Moon Red was a multi-talented individual, but he had one thing in common. His health was not very good, and he rarely saw guests, not to mention the ladies in the building. Li Jun thought that she would not meet him, but she unexpectedly invited him in.
Little Sister Li was anxious. What should she say when she sees the moon's redness?
"You wanted to see me because you wanted to know why I would rather stay in the brothel than leave." Yue Hong pruned her moon-red flowers, put the scissors to the side, glanced at Little Sister Li.
Little Sister Li did not expect her to be so straightforward, so she did not know what to say.
