On the other side, Meng Fangxuan had changed his clothes and arrived at the brothel.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and a trace of playfulness could be seen in his eyes. His entire demeanor was that of a ruffian, and he looked just like a popinjay. Moreover, he had even made some modifications to his face. Even if he was an acquaintance, he might not be able to recognize that this was the son of the King's Manor.

Meng Liangxuan stood near the brothel, feeling extremely repulsed.

"Sir, please come in!" The biggest brothel in Qing He County was indeed different. Even the woman outside the door was not ordinary, not to mention the woman inside.

At this time, a woman couldn't hold the guests back. She saw the light in his eyes so she pulled his arm and leaned against his body: "Dear guest, don't stand outside. Let's go inside!" As he spoke, he tried to pull him in.

Meng Ling Xuan choked on the pungent rouge and pushed the woman away. With a look of contempt, he teased her, "With your looks, it's not even enough for me to look at you, woman!" With that, he strode into the brothel without even looking at her.

Very soon, someone came to greet him, and he knew at a glance that it was his mother.

His mother looked at the woman who had followed him in after she was pushed aside. The fierce look in her eyes urged her to leave unwillingly.

Indeed, it was as he had thought. Everything that had just happened at the door had been seen by others.

The mother's graceful figure swayed as she smiled and said, "The guest is a stranger. These girls don't understand anything, so don't bother with her."

Meng Ling Xuan raised his eyebrows and pretended to be surprised, but his mind had already wandered around. He lifted his mother's chin and blew into her ear. "I'm a stranger," he whispered, "but money can make a difference. Don't bully me."

His mother laughed softly at his actions, her eyes beaded with tears, and with a hint of indignation, she pushed Meng Lianxuan away. Her eyebrows twitched as she asked, "How could that be?"

Seeing her actions, Meng Ling Xuan felt like he was about to vomit from last night's meal. However, thinking about his purpose here, he held himself back.

He thought about the rumors he had heard before and said frivolously, "I've heard that you were once the number one beauty of this brothel. I wonder if you would be able to meet the current number one beauty?"

She immediately put on a welcoming smile and said, "I didn't expect young master to be so clear, just that the first and second beauties have already been taken care of. It would be better to look for the third beauty, that would also be a peerless beauty, with her back facing the crowd and her mesmerizing eyes moving around, I guarantee that young master will not disappoint you, what do you say?"

"I heard that the number one beauty and the second beauty are worth ten thousand taels of silver. I'll double their price!" Let them accompany this Young Master! "

After he finished speaking, he slapped the banknotes that he had purposely changed onto the table. His unconcerned actions shocked the mother.

Go get help. They seemed to be hidden, but all of them had fallen into Meng Ling Xuan's eyes.

He lowered his eyes and a dark light flashed across his eyes as he thought about the owner of this brothel. Considering the official position in Qing He County, no one had the money to buy the number one and second beauties, unless … As soon as he finished his thoughts, he disguised himself as a popinjay.

Soon, the person sent by her mother appeared beside her and whispered in her ear, "The lord has agreed to leave!" Meng Fanxuan's kung fu was high, so naturally, he had caught the two words, "Lord".

His mother turned around and smiled at him. "The number one beauty is free right now. How about I bring you up there?"

Although Meng Ling Xuan didn't know who they were talking about, he knew that there would be a lot of people involved. His eyes darkened, but he pretended to be happy as he followed them upstairs.

On the way upstairs, he bumped into a person. It was a County Magistrate of Qing He County.

"You can't walk and look at the road!" Meng Ling Xuan seized the initiative and grabbed the collar of the other party, shouting loudly.

The magistrate didn't expect such a thing to happen, and pointed at his nose with a face full of grievance, "Do you know what you're doing? "But I …"

Before he could finish his words, his mother interrupted him and said with a laugh, "Two guests, just give your mother some face and let it pass!"

With that, she signaled him with her eyes to leave. Although the magistrate was dissatisfied, he turned around and left.

Seeing that the magistrate had decisively left, Meng Ling Xuan's heart sank. A mother who could speak like that, what role did she play in that? Was she the same as the Liu Niang he had previously investigated?

On the way up, he saw many Qing He County officials and women from the brothels pulling each other along. They had a dazed look on their faces; they were drunk to the point of being confused.

Soon, he was assigned a bright room with a screen in between.

"Young master, wait here. The number one beauty will be here soon." After she finished talking to him, she closed the door and left.

Meng Ling Xuan sat at the round table. Upon seeing the wine jug and the two wine cups, he understood that there might have been two people here just now. He wondered if anyone had been observing him from behind the screen just now.

"Hmph, this brothel still hasn't taken away its items. Do you want me to use something that others have used before?!" In truth, he was secretly observing the screen behind him.

He wasn't sure if it was just an illusion, but he felt something move there.

"I wonder if there is a beauty who can change her clothes behind the screen. Sniffing is not bad too!" There was a lewd smile on Meng Ling Xuan's face as he stood up and looked at the screen with his burning gaze.

Sure enough, he immediately felt that the person behind the screen had gone into chaos. "Dong!" Someone had obviously jumped out of the room.

Meng Ling Xuan walked behind the screen. With a serious expression, he stared at the open window, and said with regret, "This beauty actually didn't leave behind any clothes. What a pity."

However, because of this, he discovered that the water in the brothel was much deeper than usual. Since no one was watching him, he had to leave this place as well. He couldn't gather the information he wanted here.

He softly opened the door and followed his instincts to the backyard. The interior was so large that he almost lost his way.

"How much do you think these things are worth?" Two rough voices resounded in the small room.

He flew up to the roof in a flash, quietly lifted off the rubble, and looked down.

There were several women lying inside, and some of them looked very familiar.

"This is not something we should know. We only need two people to send them over!" A brawny man said as he patted the short man's shoulder.

"Ai, if I could have a taste of them, I would be satisfied. It's such a pity to be their slave!" The little man sighed as he touched the skin of one of the women.

"One is missing, I don't think they know?" The short one seemed to be asking for the big guy's opinion, but was pushed back and didn't dare to say anything else.

"Humph, don't think too much. I won't be able to protect you when the time comes!"

"That's true. If we don't work as prostitutes in our own country, we'll have to make a trip. How troublesome!"

"Yeah, if I were here, I could spend some money to show off. That would be the taste of the storm!" After saying that, they let out a "tsk tsk tsk" sound.

Hearing this, coupled with the deal he had seen at Lady Liu's place, Meng Ling Xuan naturally understood what was going on. He didn't expect to discover so many things on this trip, so he left in disgust.
