Chapter 230: What are you afraid of if you’re not sleeping with them?

Inside the hall, after the maidservants served the tea, Jiang Jiuchu turned to Song Fuge and said, “Thank you, Brother Fu, for saving me last time.”

Song Fuge chuckled softly, “Chuer has already repaid me with her life. I can’t bear Chuer’s repeated thanks. Chuer, please don’t say thank you again. Besides, I was willing to do it myself.”

“Brother Fu is always worthy of it,” Jiang Jiuchu said, then asked with a puzzled expression:

“I wonder what Brother Fu wants from me this time?”

Song Fuge twirled the teacup on the coffee table, then raised his eyes to look at Jiang Jiuchu, “I heard that the Fifth Prince came to your residence to look for you. Is he interested in you?”

“I was thinking that if he is interested in you, and if he ascends to that position one day, he might force you into the palace.”

“So, I wanted to ask, would Chuer be willing to leave Kyoto with me for a while? I happen to be going to the Southern Kingdom. When the overall situation is settled, if he doesn’t succeed, you can return to Kyoto.”

Jiang Jiuchu looked at Song Fuge in surprise. She didn’t expect his information to be so well-informed, and that he could make such accurate predictions based on Shi Xiu’s two visits.

“Brother Fu…”

Her words suddenly stopped, then she said with a smile, “Brother Fu is one year older than my brother, how about I call you Brother Fu from now on?”

After she finished speaking, she continued, “Brother Fu, please don’t plan for me anymore. I don’t want to trouble you again. He won’t come looking for me for the time being. As for the future, if he succeeds, then it is fate.”

Song Fuge’s fifty percent hope instantly plummeted because of Jiang Jiuchu’s words.

He looked at the person he had been dreaming of, seemingly finally confirming that he was no longer her Brother Fu, but just… Brother Fu.

“Okay, Brother Fu respects you. If you need anything in the future, just go to Mo Feng Pavilion to find me.”

“Okay,” Jiang Jiuchu nodded, watching Song Fuge’s departing back, lost in thought for a long time.

“Hey, Jiuchu, who is he?” Xiao Li asked as she stepped into the hall.

“He’s a friend of my brother’s, he saved me when I was little,” Jiang Jiuchu explained roughly, then got up and walked outside.

Xiao Li immediately took Jiang Jiuchu’s arm, “I see, it’s really a pity we didn’t meet sooner. If I had met him earlier, what would Shi Yuanchen have been?”

Jiang Jiuchu was a little speechless, and looked at Xiao Li and said, “Princess, have you forgotten that you are here for a diplomatic marriage and are going to marry a prince?”

“Oh right, I really forgot.” Xiao Li shook her head and complained, “This princess’s life is really bitter.”

“Although you are here for a diplomatic marriage, you have the freedom to choose, so it’s not considered bitter.” As they spoke, the two of them left the mansion gate.

West Magpie Street, at the entrance of Yunqing Pavilion, Jiang Jiuchu looked at the plaque in front of her with a look of horror, and swallowed.

“Xiao Li, do you know where this is?”

“Of course I know, I’ve been here several times.” As Xiao Li spoke, she grabbed Jiang Jiuchu’s arm and pulled her inside.

“Come on, men can go to brothels to find someone to relieve their worries when they have troubles, why can’t women?”

“Wait…” Jiang Jiuchu stopped Xiao Li from pulling her, seemingly suddenly understanding the crux of the problem between Xiao Li and Shi Yuanchen.

“You said you’ve been here several times?”

Xiao Li thought Jiang Jiuchu didn’t believe her, and patted her chest confidently, “Of course, Shi Yuanchen brought me here! You can ask him if you don’t believe me, would I lie to you?”

After she finished speaking, she whispered into Jiang Jiuchu’s ear, “Let me tell you, it’s a waste to be a woman if you don’t visit a male brothel in this lifetime.”

Jiang Jiuchu was shocked when she heard this. Shi Yuanchen brought her here? Okay, she didn’t understand again.

“Um, I’m not going, you go yourself!” Jiang Jiuchu said, trying to pull her wrist back from Xiao Li’s grasp.

“Don’t! You’re such a killjoy, are you afraid?” Xiao Li held onto Jiang Jiuchu tightly, her good sister should share both blessings and misfortunes together.

She didn’t drag her over before because of that damn crown prince, but now, ha… she’s not afraid.

“Even an unmarried princess like me isn’t afraid, you’re divorced and don’t plan to marry again, what are you afraid of?”

“Let me tell you, they are very talented, they can play the flute and the zither, especially the dancing, it really danced into this princess’s heart.”

“What? Dancing?” Jiang Jiuchu was shocked when she heard this. Playing the flute and zither was not uncommon, but dancing…

Uh… she couldn’t imagine the scene.

“Of course, come on, let’s just listen and watch, we’re not sleeping with them, why are you being so cowardly?”

“Heh…” Jiang Jiuchu awkwardly twitched the corners of her mouth, and looked around. Fortunately, there weren’t many people around. This Xiao Li was really a ‘heroine among women’.

“Hey, don’t look, this Yunqing Pavilion is built at the very end of the street, there aren’t many pedestrians passing by, no one will see our Miss Jiang, if you dawdle and don’t go in, don’t blame me if you run into an acquaintance.”

“Let’s go boating on the lake! Or we can go to my Jade Shop for a while,” Jiang Jiuchu felt that Xiao Li’s grip was really strong, and she couldn’t pull it back no matter what.

“Boring, let’s go…” Before Xiao Li could finish speaking, two men and two women waiting inside the door saw this scene. Two of the women exchanged glances, then walked over with a smile and took Jiang Jiuchu’s arm, saying with a smile:

“Miss, please come in quickly, our Yunqing Pavilion has had many handsome young masters recently, all of them are very talented.”

“Hey, hey, don’t pull, don’t pull, I’ll walk myself,” Jiang Jiuchu was dragged and pushed by the three of them.

Inside Yunqing Pavilion, a madam in charge saw Xiao Li, and her eyes lit up instantly. After all, this was a generous customer.

“Yo, Miss, it’s been a long time since you’ve been here, Madam thought you were married!”

As the madam spoke, her gaze fell on Jiang Jiuchu, and she looked her up and down with a smile, “Wow, Miss is not only as beautiful as a fairy, but Miss’s friend is also stunningly beautiful.”

“Of course, this princess… this young lady’s friend is naturally good-looking, this is called birds of a feather flock together.”

The corner of Jiang Jiuchu’s mouth twitched, thinking that Xiao Li’s inappropriate four-character idiom was indeed appropriate because she and Xiao Li had entered this Yunqing Pavilion.

Xiao Li waved her hand and directly took out a thousand tael silver note, “As usual, I want the biggest private room here, and handsome men, I want the best-looking ones, preferably you can invite your male courtesan here.”

As she spoke, she glanced at Jiang Jiuchu and said to the madam, “This is my sister’s first time here, the first impression must be good, otherwise there will be no next business.”

Jiang Jiuchu’s mouth twitched, still thinking about a next business? However, she had seen firsthand today how those men spent a fortune in brothels.

The madam in charge looked at the silver note in her hand and said with some embarrassment, “That… this Yun Gongzi is not easy to invite! Girl…”

“Stop.” Xiao Li raised her hand to interrupt the madam’s words, “This young lady understands, male courtesans! The price is naturally different.”

As she spoke, she took out another thousand tael silver note, “Like this… is it okay now!”
