Acai got off the carriage first, then came over to help Luo Lan get off the carriage.
She looked up and saw that they were now in a dark alley.
She looked around and frowned at the officer,
"Where is this?"
A policeman came forward to open the back door, and saw the woman named Fengjie walking out with her beautiful figure.
When he saw her, Luo Lan realized that they were being sent to a brothel.
She half-closed her eyes and looked at Feng Jie, who claimed to have a good relationship with her, and laughed at herself.
"You want us to come to Xiangyue Tower? To receive guests?"
Her words were so direct, her eyes were so determined, and her expression was so calm, all of which made Fengjie stunned for a moment.
The woman in front of her made her feel cautious and not to underestimate her.
She knew that she couldn't treat this woman as contemptuously as she treated other women.
She chuckled and took two steps forward.
"This young lady is obviously not an ordinary person. How dare I let you entertain guests? My Xiangyue Tower is currently in need of someone who can play the zither and dance. I wonder if the young lady understands these things?"
Dancing and playing the piano were naturally no problem for her, but as the queen of Daning Kingdom, how could she let these lowly men who came to visit the brothel appreciate her dancing?
After a moment's hesitation, she nodded slightly in order to gain Sister Feng's trust.
"I can't dance, but I can play the piano a little."
Fengjie knew at a glance that the woman opposite must be someone who is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
However, before she knew her identity, she didn't dare to act rashly.
"May I ask your name, young lady?"
Luo Lan's shrewd eyes flickered a few times, and then she opened her red lips and replied calmly:
"Blue Dream..."
Sister Feng frowned slightly and nodded slightly.
"Lan Meng is as elegant as her name suggests. It's a pleasure to meet you."
Although Luo Lan disdained a woman like Feng Jie, he still politely returned the greeting.
"Sister Feng from Yilan County, I heard that she and the current Empress are like sisters? My apologies..."
Hearing this, Sister Feng did not deny it. She was just stunned for a moment, then waved her hand.
"Miss Lan Meng, you are so polite. Please come in."
She was so polite to Luo Lan that everyone present was a little surprised.
You know, Fengjie is a very powerful person in Yilan County, and there are not many people who can be praised by her like this.
Luo Lan was not polite and immediately took A Cai and went directly into Xiangyue Tower through the back door.
Sister Feng took her to a spacious room on the second floor.
"Miss Lan Meng, this room is clean and bright. I think it's okay for you to live in it."
Luo Lan glanced around the place. Although the decoration was very prosperous, it was a bit tacky.
She nodded lightly.
"Very good, thank you Sister Feng for taking care of me."
Her calmness is the biggest grudge in Fengjie's heart.
She and the man beside her did not panic at all when something happened. Even when the man was taken away from her, she did not make a fuss. This is completely against common sense.
"Miss Lan Meng, there's an Oiran Contest at Xiangyue Tower tonight. I know you're not interested in attending, but could you please play the qin for the grand finale?"
Luo Lan couldn't help but sigh in her heart, this Feng Jie is indeed not an ordinary person. She can see that she is not interested in the so-called Oiran Conference. It seems that she has to be more careful when facing her in the future.
She nodded immediately and freely.
"Yes, but I have to wear a mask."
She didn't want to explain any more. Fengjie hesitated and nodded in agreement.
"Okay, I'll do as you wish, young lady."
Luo Lan is probably the first person to receive such preferential treatment when he first arrives at Xiangyue Tower.
…
Leng Yu, who was sent to the mine, was not so lucky.
As soon as the four of them arrived at the mine, they were taken into a room and the officers threw some clothes on the ground.
"Change your clothes. Once you enter here, no matter who you were before, you will have to do hard labor here."
Looking at the clothes thrown on the ground, the scholar picked up one, looked at Leng Yu who was hesitating, and handed it to him.
"Brother Liu Si, although this dress isn't as bright as the one you're wearing, it's clean. Now that we're here, we have no say in it. Put it on!"
Leng Yu frowned, took the smelly clothes from his hand, and smiled bitterly.
"I have no choice, what else can I complain about?"
The other two people were shaking the clothes in their hands and cursing non-stop.
"Damn it, the world is really going downhill. Everyone says that Daning State has a wise ruler, but he allows the queen to harm the people. This is really... beautiful women are the root of all trouble!"
The scholar glanced towards the door and then said "hush".
"Big guy, you dare to say such words? Aren't you afraid that someone will hear you and beat you to death?"
The big man snorted.
"Being beaten to death is better than being tortured to death. I think there's no way we can return from this place."
Another thin man also sighed,
"With my current health, it's unlikely I can make it back alive. We four came here together, so let me tell you this: if I can't make it back, whoever of you makes it out alive has to go see my mother for me..."
The scholar changed his clothes, shook his head and sighed.
"Live one day at a time! If you can't even protect yourself, what's the point of thinking about other things?"
Leng Yu held the clothes in his hand without moving. He looked at the three men who were determined to die, and snorted solemnly.
"Don't be discouraged. Perhaps things will turn around soon. This is the kingdom of Daning after all. The emperor will clean up the pests here sooner or later."
