This incident did not have any impact on Qin Yuesheng and his party. They continued to eat and drink as usual.
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Du Beilun was the first to stand up and say, "It's almost time for the selection of the most beautiful woman. Let's go and take a look outside."
Above the second floor of Tianxian Pavilion, the central area is transparent, and you can look down and see the scene below while standing in the corridor.
When Qin Yuesheng and others came to the corridor outside the wing room, they saw that Tianxian Pavilion was already bustling with activity. A large number of merchants' sons were standing behind the handrails of the corridor, looking at the many courtesans and masters standing on the high platform on the first floor.
"Yuesheng, I've already chosen the sixteenth one on the left. Don't pick the same one as me." Du Beilun couldn't help but remind him.
Qin Yuesheng looked in the direction he indicated and saw a woman in a light blue dress. She had a delicate figure and gentle features, and she had a pitiful temperament.
In Tianxian Pavilion, only the top courtesans are qualified to wear red and purple, the court ladies are qualified to wear blue, and the common people are qualified to wear green. This is used to divide the classes of the women in different brothels. The wild prostitutes who can only stand at the gate to welcome guests are the most miserable.
"Oh, have you all chosen your people?" Qin Yuesheng asked the other young masters.
Led by Lu Juncheng, these people announced their chosen targets one after another, so as to avoid choosing more than one and overlapping targets, which would ruin the fun of gambling.
After they all said who they had chosen, Qin Yuesheng glanced at the many beautiful women on the platform. They were all very young, at the peak of their beauty. Standing there was like a hundred flowers competing for beauty. Whether it was peony, lily, or daffodil, each had its own outstanding and charming features.
After searching for a while, Qin Yuesheng finally pointed to a cold and beautiful woman standing on the edge of a high platform. She had a hot body and heroic features. She was wearing a blue dress and was a prostitute who only sold her art and not her body.
"It's her. Please help me remember it. I'm afraid I'll forget who I chose later." Qin Yuesheng said lightly.
Du Beilun took a few looks and couldn't help but wonder, "Hey! How could this woman come to the Oiran Convention? It's simply unbelievable."
Qin Yuesheng glanced sideways: "Do you know him?"
"Of course I know her. This girl's name is Murong Yuhan, the only daughter of the Meixue Twins. Back then, the Meixue Twins were murdered by the notorious Bloody Hand Butcher. Having no parents and no way to make a living, she came to Tianxian Pavilion to work as a prostitute, making a living by playing the zither and painting for others."
On the surface, the Oiran Competition seems to be a competition to select a new Oiran, but in fact there is an unspoken rule, that is, no matter whether or not a woman wins the title of Oiran, all women who participate in the competition must offer their bodies to the sponsor who has paid the most money in the process of winning the title.
It doesn't matter who this person is, a dying old man, a smelly beggar, or a demented young man, as long as you attend the Oiran Conference, you must accompany him. Otherwise, the rules of Tianxian Pavilion will be ruined.
Murong Yuhan has been chaste for many years. She has been a chaste prostitute and never allows customers to touch her body. Many people have spent a lot of money to ask her to make an exception, but they have all failed.
Over time, everyone watched the beautiful girl grow into the graceful and mature girl she is today.
No one expected that Murong Yuhan, who had remained a virgin for many years, would actually come to participate in the Oiran Conference.
Doesn't this mean...
"Yuesheng, hehehe." Du Beilun smiled slyly: "How about we switch?"
"Okay." Qin Yuesheng nodded. "If you help me gather information about the four coffin bearers, I'll give this woman to you."
Du Beilun's face changed when he heard the voice, and he instantly lost the desire to speak again.
If he loses the fight with Qin Yuesheng for Murong Yuhan, he will only lose money. But if he goes to find the four coffin bearers, he may even lose his life. He naturally knows which is more important.
After a lively sound of gongs and drums, the Oiran Conference hosted by Tianxian Pavilion finally officially began. A plump and attractive old procuress walked up to the platform, waving a round fan. Her back showed narrow shoulders and broad hips, high and perky breasts, and a slender waist. This figure alone was worth fifty taels of silver.
"Gentlemen, tonight is the day of our Tianxian Pavilion's April selection of the Oiran. I believe everyone is already familiar with the rules and regulations, so I will not waste any more words. The Oiran Competition officially begins."
As soon as the madam finished speaking, a large number of maids in their early teens came with flower baskets. Each of them had a board with pens and ink hanging on their chest for registration.
This was not the first time that Qin Yuesheng came to Tianxian Pavilion to participate in the Oiran Competition, so he certainly knew how to play this game.
Anyone who pays a deposit, whether it is a minimum of ten gold or more, will have a maid standing beside you. Tonight they will be responsible for registering and receiving the deposit you give, and then calculate it together.
The women vying for the title of the most beautiful woman would take turns to display their talents on the stage to win the smiles of the guests below and attract the interest of the guests upstairs to spend a fortune on them.
At midnight, all the maids returned and began to tally up the amount of money each received. The highest-paid maid would be named the new top courtesan of Tianxian Pavilion. While the process was supposed to select a new top courtesan, it was actually a disguised money-making scheme. It went without saying who benefited the most from the entire process.
But many people just like this. They spend money to help the brothel girl they admire debut as a top courtesan. Firstly, it makes them happy, and secondly, they may have the chance to marry her in the future. This is how ordinary people play.
For a young man from an aristocratic family like Qin Yuesheng, playing this kind of game is all about fighting to the end, investing money, and investing hard. In the end, no matter whether the target of his investment can win the most beautiful woman, he can still enjoy a night of passion. Isn't that wonderful?
