Encouraged by a group of newly recruited underlings in the army, Zhang Yun took Qin Zheng to Zui Fang Lou, the best brothel in Luoyan Town behind Luoyan Pass.
This was Zhang Yun's first time visiting an ancient brothel.
Zuifanglou was not a large establishment, and its clientele consisted mostly of border soldiers, so the prices were not high.
When Zhang Yun arrived, he immediately ordered the entire Zui Fang Lou restaurant to be booked for three days, declaring that everyone should drink until they were completely drunk.
The madam of Zuifanglou learned from her lover, a military officer, that Zhang Yun was of noble status, so she immediately sent out all the girls in the brothel for him to choose from.
When the girls in the building heard that the young men coming downstairs were all more handsome than any girl, and that he was the young master of the Northwest Prince's Mansion, they all came out in droves, their eyes fixed on him as if they wanted to rush up and devour him.
Zhang Yun took a step back, feeling the gaze.
Zuifanglou was, after all, just a brothel in a small border town. In fact, the girls in the brothel were not as beautiful as a second-class maid in the royal palace.
Moreover, Zhang Yun himself is gay, and he came here purely out of curiosity.
His gaze swept across the crowd, and he suddenly noticed several men dressed as women. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why are there men here?"
The madam said with a fawning smile, "Young master, you don't know, but some military officers have a taste for this."
Zhang Yun understood immediately.
He glanced at them a few times, then pointed to a man who bore a slight resemblance to Qin Zheng and said, "He'll do. Go wash up and change into men's clothes to serve me. I don't like the smell of women's cosmetics."
"Yes!" the madam quickly replied with a smile.
The man chosen by Zhang Yun bowed with undisguised joy and went to change his clothes, while the others watched him leave with envy and jealousy.
After Zhang Yun finished choosing someone, he smiled and looked at Qin Zheng beside him, saying, "You should also choose one. Pick whichever you like, don't be shy."
Qin Zheng stared at the departing man with a gloomy expression, but when Zhang Yun turned to ask him a question, his face broke into a gentle smile.
Upon hearing Zhang Yun's words, he narrowed his eyes slightly: "Really, you can choose whatever you want?"
"Of course!" Zhang Yun nodded.
"What if I want the person you choose?" Qin Zheng asked.
Everyone in the room gasped upon hearing this.
Who exactly is this person?
How dare he try to snatch someone from the heir of the Northwest Prince's Mansion?
Just when everyone thought the young prince would get angry and severely punish the person in the next second, they saw that the young prince was not angry at all. Instead, he looked at the person with an incomprehensible tone.
"But... he's a man."
"So what?"
Qin Zheng countered with a question.
So what!
You, a straight man, go to a brothel and pick up men?
Report: One of the main characters here is out of character (OOC)!
"If you like him, then you can have him."
After saying this, Zhang Yun even began to suspect that Qin Zheng had been possessed.
This little incident did not affect the atmosphere because of Zhang Yun's magnanimity.
After everyone had chosen their waiters and taken their seats, the kabuki performers began their show.
After a few rounds of drinks, the atmosphere became even more lively.
Zhang Yun sat alone in the main seat, sipping a drink, but her gaze kept drifting towards Qin Zheng's table, her heart filled with indescribable complex emotions.
Since he didn't see anyone he liked afterward, he didn't ask anyone to accompany him, and his side was empty.
Suddenly, he saw Qin Zheng holding a wine glass, walking towards him and sitting down next to him.
Zhang Yun immediately straightened up.
Qin Zheng leaned closer to him and said, "A-Yun, are you angry that I took your man away? If so, how about I keep you company?"
As he spoke, he poured Zhang Yun a glass of wine, picked it up and brought it to Zhang Yun's lips, staring intently at his lips, which were glistening with moisture from the wine.
Zhang Yun stared at him for a while, then opened her mouth and drank the wine he offered before saying, "What are you talking about? Why would I be angry with you over this? I just don't understand why you would call someone a man. Don't you only like women?"
"Oh?" Qin Zheng raised an eyebrow and moved closer to him, their legs touching under the table.
"Who told you, Ah-Yun, that I only like women?"
"Do I even need to hear about this? Someone like you, you're obviously..."
Zhang Yun suddenly shut his mouth at this point.
Under the table, Qin Zheng's hand, which had been close to him, covered his thigh and began to touch him through his clothes!
"What is it?" Qin Zheng asked with a smile.
Zhang Yun's breath hitched, his Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and he said in a low voice, "I think we need to talk."
Then, without waiting for Qin Zheng to speak, he pulled him up.
Zhang Yun smiled and said to the crowd at the table who were looking at them, "This young master is not a good drinker, so I'll be leaving first. Everyone, have a good time, and the bill for these three days is on me!"
"Young Master is mighty!"
The crowd cheered, and flattery filled the air.
The fact that the two of them were practically flirting up there didn't seem strange to these people.
For a prince like Zhang Yun, having handsome young men and beautiful maids serving him personally was often a romantic and elegant affair.
Back in the military camp, they had already guessed that Qin Zheng was the young master's favorite male concubine because of his handsome appearance and the fact that he shared a tent with Zhang Yun.
At this moment, it's just that the speculation has turned into confirmation.
They even thought that Zhang Yun was very strict with himself, not even taking women into the military camp, and only bringing a servant to relieve his lust.
This also explains why Qin Zheng dared to snatch the person the prince had chosen earlier; it turns out he was jealous and throwing a tantrum at the prince!
Judging from the way the young master hurriedly left with that rabbit-faced young master, he probably had his fire stirred up under the table and was eager to release it!
Zhang Yun pulled Qin Zheng upstairs in a hurry, found an empty room at random, went inside, closed the door, and locked it.
He turned around and looked at Qin Zheng with a serious expression, saying, "Have you figured out that I like men?"
Qin Zheng: "!!!"
Seeing that he was stunned and didn't speak, Zhang Yun continued, "Don't worry, I won't hurt you. You don't need to do this just to please me!"
After a long silence in the room, Qin Zheng asked in a slightly trembling voice, "Why won't you harm me?"
Zhang Yun said, "You don't like men anyway. I treat you like a good brother, how could I possibly make things difficult for you?"
What if I just like men?
"Stop messing around, I know you like women."
Qin Zheng frowned, grabbed his hand, and pulled him into his arms with a sudden force, face to face with him: "A-Yun, I like you."
After saying that, she lowered her head and kissed his lips, which were so close to hers.
Zhang Yun: "!!!"
Qin Zheng put one arm around him and pressed the back of Zhang Yun's head with the other, deepening the kiss.
So sweet, too sweet, I want more...
Zhang Yun was kissed by him for a long time, almost to the point of being unable to breathe, before he finally let go.
Qin Zheng pressed his forehead against his and said in a low, husky voice, "Now, do you believe me?"
Zhang Yun nodded, her face flushed red.
He believed it! He completely believed it!
Seeing Qin Zheng about to kiss him again, he quickly reached out and blocked his mouth, "Wait a minute, let me catch my breath! When did you start liking me?"
Qin Zheng's mouth was covered, but his eyes were wide open. Zhang Yun saw his own face reflected in his dark, bright eyes, and his heart nearly jumped out of his chest.
He gently licked the palm of his hand, and Zhang Yun realized that he was still covering the other person's mouth, so he quickly let go.
"The first time you took me out of the manor, the night we slept in the pit, I fell in love with you."
"What you're saying..."
Zhang Yun was about to criticize his way of speaking, but then her attention was drawn to the content, "Holy crap, you were already gay... and liked me back then?"
His shocked expression was so adorable that Qin Zheng couldn't resist giving him a kiss on the cheek. "Yes."
“I know I am of lowly status and not worthy of you, and I did not want you to know, but Ah Yun, why did you have to seduce me…”
At this point, Qin Zheng's smile, which had been lingering since the beginning, widened even further.
He kissed his cheek again, saying, "You actually told me you like men."
While being teased by him, Zhang Yun's mind wandered as she recalled the events of the past few months in the army, and suddenly she realized!
No wonder he always felt that this guy was acting gay lately; it turns out he was trying to seduce him!
Damn it, he thought Qin Zheng was only doing all that to please him! He kept a tight rein on things and didn't dare cross the line, but it turns out they were going in the same direction!
"You bastard...why didn't you say so sooner!"
Zhang Yun suddenly cupped his face in her hands, looked at the handsome face she had longed for, and kissed him fiercely.
He kissed her very hard, as if to release the pent-up frustration of the past few days.
Qin Zheng was completely stunned by his kiss.
Qin Zheng only snapped out of his daze when his lower back hit the table behind him, and then kissed her back without backing down.
The two kissed passionately, all the way from the doorway to the bed.
"uh-huh……"
Zhang Yun pinned Qin Zheng down.
“Ah Yun…”
Qin Zheng's hand slipped inside the unbuttoned clothes.
Zhang Yun trembled uncontrollably, her body went limp, and she lay panting in his arms.
The young man's delicate, fair face was flushed with an alluring blush, and his peach blossom eyes were brimming with moisture, making Qin Zheng feel hot all over and his mouth parched.
Qin Zheng held his body, but felt the fire burning even more intensely.
Zhang Yun licked his lips and chuckled softly, then said in a hoarse voice, "Want some...?"
"want!"
"..."
Half an hour later, Zhang Yun put on his clothes, sat up, and shook his hands.
Stallion male protagonists are simply inhuman!
Suddenly, someone hugged him from behind. Qin Zheng rested his head on his shoulder, like a well-fed dog, rubbing his lips against the back of his neck with a satisfied expression.
"I'm hungry. I didn't eat enough. Could you go out and get me something to eat?"
Zhang Yun felt ticklish from his rubbing and raised her hand to push his face away.
"Yes!" Qin Zheng immediately got up, got out of bed, dressed, and went out.
After Qin Zheng left, Zhang Yun's mind gradually took over, and he began to think.
This is so dreamy!
Qin Zheng actually likes him too!
While he was excitedly rolling around on the bed, Zhang Yun suddenly heard the sound of the bedroom door being pushed open.
Zhang Yun immediately stopped her childish behavior, quickly straightened her clothes, and got off the bed.
"You're back so soon?"
He walked around the screen blocking the bed, only to see that the person who came was not Qin Zheng, but the male prostitute who had previously looked somewhat like Qin Zheng.
"Your Highness, I saw you rushing upstairs with your attendant brother, probably without time to prepare, so I brought these things." The young man placed the items he was carrying on the table.
Zhang Yun looked up and saw a box that looked like it was for holding rouge and a picture book on it.
What is it?
Curious, he picked up the picture book first, opened it, and took a look—
Good heavens! An 18+ adult comic book!
He instantly understood the function of the other thing.
Zhang Yun closed the book, put the picture album back, and felt a little hot.
"Cough cough..."
Zhang Yunqing coughed twice. "Find me a locked box and pack all this up. I'll take it with me when I leave... Oh, and this is a reward for you."
Zhang Yun had left all his money with Qin Zheng, so he casually picked up the jade pendant tied to his belt and placed it on the tray.
The young man was puzzled as to why the prince was not using him now, but upon seeing the promise of a generous reward, he put all his questions aside and happily agreed.
He carried the things and went outside again.
The young man went out and had only taken two steps when he saw Qin Zheng, carrying a food box, walking towards him.
He quickly lowered his head and obediently curtsied.
Qin Zheng walked past him without a care, but after taking only two steps, he suddenly stopped.
He shouted, "Stop!"
The male prostitute stopped and turned to face Qin Zheng.
Qin Zheng walked up to him, reached out and picked up Zhang Yun's jade pendant from the tray, "Where did this come from?"
His imposing manner was terrifying, and the young male prostitute took a step back in fear, saying, "This was a gift from the young master! If you don't believe me, you can ask the young master yourself."
"Why would he reward you with this?" Qin Zheng didn't doubt him.
"I gave the young master some things he wanted, and he rewarded me with this jade pendant," the young man said, his eyes darting around.
After all, in his mind, these things were meant for Qin Zheng, and he felt somewhat awkward doing them in front of the person in question.
"What is that?"
The young man blushed and handed the things he was carrying to Qin Zheng, then explained dryly, "The young master didn't say he would use them now. He only bought these things and told me to put them in a locked box so he could take them with him later."
Qin Zheng naturally recognized what was on the plate.
He quickly flipped through the picture book and found that there were several poses he had never seen before. He took a few more glances at them and wrote them down.
After looking at it, Qin Zheng put the picture book back, picked up the box again, opened it, and smelled it.
Qin Zheng suddenly couldn't help but chuckle. He said, "I remember this stuff can be made into something with a fragrance."
When the young man heard that Qin Zheng was so knowledgeable, he knew he had met a true professional, and he immediately felt less embarrassed.
He gave a forced smile: "Brother is right, but only wealthy families can afford that. I'm short of money and can only afford the most ordinary one."
Qin Zheng took out a few silver notes from his pocket and weighed them down with the book.
"Go to town and have someone buy the best quality jade and pack it in a box. The rest is your reward money, but I'm taking this jade pendant."
Zhang Yun can be insightful and meticulous at times, but at other times he can be careless and sloppy.
He was wearing a four-clawed dragon pendant, a privilege reserved for members of the royal family. Giving it to a courtesan with no background like him was only inviting trouble for him.
The male prostitute dared not disobey, and besides, he preferred cash to a jade pendant whose price was unknown.
