Xia Xue's cheeks flushed red, she was too embarrassed to look up, she held the young lady's hand tightly, wishing it would be their turn right away.
Jun Shutong squeezed Xia Xue's hand and asked her to relax.
"What you uncles said is totally unreasonable. Everyone loves beauty, so why can you men see it, but women can't?"
"I heard that Miss Ruyan is talented in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and is also a rare beauty in the world. Who wouldn't want to see such a talented beauty?"
"Besides, this is in public, not in some shameful and dirty place. Why can't women come?"
"Aren't your relatives, friends, and wives at home all standing back and watching?"
As soon as the last sentence was spoken, some people in the three rows immediately began to look around, fearing that they would be caught by their own tigress.
Even two people in the front line left immediately, so Jun Shutong and the other person moved two steps forward.
The men who were teasing the master and servant stopped talking. Two of them looked back, quickly left the team, and immediately hid in the crowd.
Emperor Shunde, who was in the crowd, also saw Jun Shutong. Under the cover of his guards, he quickly moved closer to Jun Shutong and stood behind him.
[This stinky smell, why is it so familiar, System, do you smell it? ]
[Host, I have no physical form and cannot smell.]
Jun Shutong looked around and saw the fat body, and his brain suddenly froze.
[System, please take a quick look at the person behind you. Is he the emperor?]
[It's the emperor, host, you read it right. ]
Emperor Shunde pretended to look up at the sky: [Are you so surprised? If you can come, why can't I? Humph, you're surprised by something you haven't seen before.]
The emperor is here. This Miss Ruyan is so charming that she must see her beauty today no matter what.
[Host, not only has the emperor come, but many ministers from the court have also come.]
【Ah, why are they all here? 】
Jun Shutong screamed in his heart, what was going on? Most of the officials in the court came to watch the brothel girls dance?
Lord Li: [What, they are here too?]
Lord Wu: [I thought they wouldn't come.]
Lord Zhang: [Your Majesty is here. Should I go up and say hello? But Your Majesty is wearing casual clothes, so he probably doesn't want to be recognized. Forget it, I'll just pretend I don't know him.]
Lord Qi: [Why is that old man here too? I have to hide and be the last one in line.]
Little did they know that most officials thought the same way. They had too many acquaintances and were afraid of being embarrassed if they met anyone, so they all moved to the back.
Unexpectedly, everyone thought of the same thing, so the back of the VIP road was filled with officials from the Dayu Dynasty.
Jun Shutong rubbed his forehead to keep himself awake.
[No, what day is it today? The emperor is leading all the officials to see the top courtesan? That's too ridiculous.]
He originally thought that he was the only one who secretly came out to see the beauty, but unexpectedly most of the officials in the court came. Jun Shutong could even imagine the expression of the historian holding the pen.
However, she was still worrying too much, because the historian was also standing behind her, and at this time, he was still chatting about trivial things with other officials, looking very pleasant.
Finally, the people in front walked in one by one, and the next one was Jun Shutong and the other one's turn.
"Miss, why don't you let Jun Yi go in with you? I'll be waiting for you outside."
"Don't you want to see what the legendary oiran looks like? Junyi and the others are going in too. Don't worry, it will be our turn soon."
Jun Shutong patiently persuaded Xia Xue, who tried to look inside with a nervous mood.
This is a temporary platform. It is not very long but very wide, at least hundreds of meters wide. It was probably built according to the terrain.
The platform was surrounded by colorful oilcloth, with a ten-meter-wide gate facing the street. Every five meters outside, a big man stood with a knife.
If you want to see the performance, you can only squeeze to the main gate. You can't get in without buying a ticket.
"Madam, are you coming in with your child, or are you coming in alone?"
Xia Xue was a little panicked and quickly said: "Together, together."
"Okay, ten gold coins for each of you. You can find a seat close to Miss Ruyan's dance and make an appointment to meet her next time. Servants and maids will serve you snacks and tea. Have a great time, madam and young lady."
After he finished speaking, the man stretched out his hand and gestured for people to come in.
[Wow, this is an ancient version of a concert!]
VIPs have seats and snacks and tea.
Now she finally understood why they said they were dancing for free. The ten-meter gate was blocked by a group of people, and the people behind could only look at their heads or backs.
So, people who want to see it but can't can only queue up to buy tickets and get seats once they enter.
Jun Shutong even wants to kowtow to this boss. He has such a great business sense.
The two walked in for a few dozen meters and saw a stage in front of them. The back of the stage was separated by silk cloth. They could faintly hear people talking inside. This was probably the backstage.
"Madam, please come this way. You and your child can sit inside to avoid being bumped by passersby."
"Okay, thank you, bro."
"You're welcome."
Xia Xue walked in holding Jun Shutong's hand. Another servant immediately brought tea and snacks and placed them on the table, and also considerately put a pot of warm water.
"Miss, will Madam really not be angry if we come to a place like this?"
Xia Xue looked around nervously. Many seats were filled with people. There were very few women. Apart from the maids serving, the rest were men of various ages.
