Chapter 11: Since ancient times, there has never been a prince or official in Xianpinju who married a man...

Ji Zhiyang searched for a long time before he found the place where the flute sound came from, but there was no one there.

He must have heard it right, the song was 'When Will the Bright Moon Rise'.

Are there other time travelers in this world?

Ji Zhi frowned in thought when he suddenly felt his arm being tugged.

"Zhi Yang, what are you looking for?" Jiang Wang asked in confusion.

He ran away in a hurry when he heard the sound of the flute just now. Could it be that he knew the person who played the flute?

Ji Zhiyang looked up in a trance and shook his head blankly: "Nothing."

Am I overthinking it?

...But no matter how much I think about it, this song shouldn't appear in this world.

Jiang Wang said, "Do you know the person who played the flute just now?"

Ji Zhiyang hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't know him, but the song sounds familiar."

There is a kind of intimacy that comes from meeting an old friend in a foreign country.

Just like at this moment, although Ji Zhiyang was not sure whether the flute sound belonged to a person who came from another world like himself but whom he had never met, this did not hinder the joy and excitement that surged in his heart.

Seeing him like this, Jiang Wang stopped asking. The two walked for a while and were about to reach Xianpinju when Jiang Wang suddenly stopped and turned around in panic.

Ji Zhiyang was surprised: "What's wrong?"

Jiang Wang stretched out his hand to hold his shoulders, pulled him back a long way, and whispered: "Don't turn around!"

"Why, why?" Ji Zhiyang was puzzled, but still nodded obediently.

"The prince is behind me." Jiang Wang coughed lightly and said in a low voice.

"What?" Ji Zhiyang was stunned, then realized something and turned his head suddenly.

I saw two men in gorgeous clothes walking towards Xianpinju behind me.

The man on the left is handsome and elegant, while the man on the right looks evil, wicked and cold. The two of them walk gracefully and are quite eye-catching.

With no guards or servants following her, she seemed particularly relaxed, exuding a sense of dignity and elegance.

Ji Zhiyang's eyes widened - the one on the right was Gu Huai, and whose young man was the one on the left? He looked quite handsome!

But...why are you and Gu Huai together?

Where are they going?

Could it be that we are going to Xianpinju?

Wait...could the person next to him be the male prostitute from Xianpinju?

No! He is a prince, and he is so brazenly walking with a male prostitute in broad daylight?!

But this male prostitute... has an extraordinary appearance and temperament, and can indeed be called a top-notch quality.

All sorts of messy thoughts popped up in Ji Zhiyang's mind, and he couldn't help but stare at the man in a daze.

Such a face, even if only used as a vase, would be of considerable value.

However, if he liked her so much, why didn't Gu Huai marry her into the palace?

Jiang Wang lowered his voice and reminded: "Don't look at it."

"Ah?" Ji Zhiyang came back to his senses and quickly averted his gaze.

The two of them stood there motionless in tacit understanding, pretending that each other did not exist, and quietly watched the two people leave.

After they walked into Xianpinju, Ji Zhiyang finally couldn't hold back and asked in a low voice: "Is the person next to the prince a male prostitute from Xianpinju?"

Jiang Wang looked around, a little worried: "Luckily I wasn't discovered. If my brother saw me going to Xianpinju, I would be in trouble when I get home!"

Ji Zhiyang's mouth twitched slightly. Why does this sound weird?

Jiang Wang glanced around again and whispered, "The one next to the prince is the Third Prince. I don't know why, but a month ago, the Third Prince suddenly fell in love with going to Xianpinju and wanted the prince to accompany him almost every day."

Ji Zhiyang was stunned.

It is true that birds of a feather flock together. Gu Huai likes male prostitutes, and the Third Prince also likes them. They are indeed brothers, and neither of them is easy to deal with!

Ji Zhiyang sighed and asked, "Since he comes every day, he must be sincere. If that's the case, why doesn't the Third Prince marry him?"

Jiang Wang seemed to have heard a joke: "What are you talking about? Although there are men who marry men, they are ordinary people. Since ancient times, there has never been an example of a prince or official marrying a man."

He paused, leaned close to Ji Zhiyang and whispered in his ear: "Officials can only secretly buy a male pet and hide it at home. Xianpinju is just a place for officials to have fun. Moreover, the Third Prince is of noble status, how could he marry a male prostitute!"

Ji Zhiyang was a little confused. What did he mean by not being able to marry a man? Why didn't he mention alpha, omega, or beta?

This world...something feels a little off.

The people around me don’t seem to have pheromones…

And this male wife...

Why does this other world feel so strange?

Jiang Wang pulled him to the door of Xianpinju.

Ji Zhiyang looked up and saw a huge plaque hanging in the middle, with three large characters "Xianpinju" written on it in the shape of a flying golden dragon and dancing phoenix. The plaque sparkled in the sunlight like a gem.

The two walked in. The interior of the store was exquisitely and elegantly decorated, and the air was filled with a faint aroma of wine. On the left side of the counter, there was a man sitting alone with a musical instrument, his back looking lonely.

The store was full of guests, all of them were young men dressed in fine clothes.

Sitting next to them were one or two extremely handsome male prostitutes.

The male prostitutes spoke in sweet voices and served tenderly, which made the young men intoxicated and wanted only to indulge in their beauty.

Ji Zhiyang's gaze wandered across the faces of those male prostitutes, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this is worthy of being Xianpinju, every male prostitute here is extremely handsome and can be called the best.

I don’t know if these men are the first-class ones that Gu Huai mentioned.

Seeing the male prostitute snuggling in the young man's arms in a fawning manner, with an undignified look of flattery, made him feel a little nauseous. He could not help but turn his head away and secretly look around to find Gu Huai's figure.

Jiang Wang noticed his actions and whispered, "Don't be afraid, the prince should be in the elegant room upstairs, we won't run into him."

Ji Zhiyang nodded.

As they took a step forward, they saw a man walking down the stairs.

He was dressed in a white robe, with his long hair half tied up and half loose, a jade belt around his waist, his eyebrows and eyes were as delicate as a painting, and he looked like a banished immortal, ethereal and unpredictable, yet extremely handsome.

Ji Zhiyang was stunned. If those male prostitutes just now were first-rate, then the man in white who was coming downstairs at this moment was undoubtedly the top-grade one, capable of killing the so-called first-rate ones in seconds.

Ji Zhiyang could no longer think of any words to describe his beauty. He was like an immortal walking on the moon, as if he could fly back on the wind at any time, leaving only a streak of brilliant and stunning color in the world.

This was a beauty unlike any he had ever seen before, so beautiful that she seemed otherworldly, so beautiful that it could take one's breath away and make one's heart tremble.

Jiang Wang also stared at the man blankly, without blinking, his eyes fixed on the man's face, unable to move away at all.

The man in white came straight over with a faint smile on his face: "This is the first time for you two gentlemen to come here."

His voice is clear and pure, like the gurgling of a mountain spring, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

Ji Zhiyang was in a daze for a moment before he came to his senses.

Jiang Wang gradually regained his composure and coughed lightly to cover up his embarrassment: "Yes, it's my first time here."

"Please go to the second floor." The man in white extended his hand to lead the way. "The upstairs room is spacious and comfortable, and it is isolated from peeping outsiders. Please feel free to drink."

The two followed him upstairs.

The man in white brought them to an elegant room on the second floor. The room was decorated simply and elegantly. A set of tea sets was placed on the table, and incense was burning beside the table.

These things may seem ordinary, but they exude a sense of luxury and nobility.

Ji Zhiyang couldn't help but look at him.

"My name is Yun Jin, and I'm the owner of Xianpinju." Yun Jin introduced himself and asked with a smile, "What kind of wine would you like to drink?"

Ji Zhiyang turned around and looked at Jiang Wang.

Jiang Wang rubbed his hands a little nervously and said, "We want to find... two... two..."

The door was pushed open, Yun Jin took the wine pot from the servant and said with a smile: "It is OK to just drink wine in Xianpinju. If the two gentlemen want to listen to music, I can arrange it."

He poured wine for the two of them, "This is peach blossom wine, sweet and mellow, you two can try it."

He was very polite in his speech and gentle in his attitude, leaving nothing to be desired.

Knowing that it was their first time, he did not treat them differently and even poured wine for them personally.

Why not let male prostitutes accompany them? Do you think they can't afford it?

Ji Zhiyang picked up the wine cup and took a sip. The wine was smooth in his throat, with a long aftertaste.

I took another sip and it was sweet and smooth, leaving a long-lasting aftertaste.

Jiang Wang quickly followed suit and picked up the wine cup.

They were halfway through their drink when a servant came in and whispered, "Boss, the prince wants you to come over."

Yun Jin waved to the servants: "I understand." He stood up and said with an apologetic smile: "Excuse me for a moment."

Then he left the room.

After the servant closed the door, Jiang Wang immediately said impatiently: "So he is the owner of Xianpinju. He is really a handsome man as others said."

While admiring the beautiful scenery outside the window, he said: "Such a beautiful woman, but she wants to be a male prostitute. What a pity."

Ji Zhiyang remained silent.

Jiang Wang suddenly approached Ji Zhiyang and said in a mysterious voice, "Zhiyang, you heard it just now. The prince called him. What do you think the prince called him to do?"

Ji Zhiyang's mouth twitched slightly. Who would know?

Anyway, he guessed that Gu Huai must be different from them and came here just to drink.

Ji Zhiyang took a sip of wine and asked, "Why didn't Boss Yun find a male prostitute to accompany us just now?"

Jiang Wang chuckled: "Maybe it's because we're here for the first time, so we're a little shy. I heard that Yun Jin is different from the previous owner of Xianpinju. After he takes over the management of Xianpinju, he doesn't have to accept guests unless they are willing."

This made Ji Zhiyang a little surprised.

This person is different from others, and actually seems to be out of touch with the world.

She was completely different from the brothels he had seen in books and TV dramas.

Yun Jin left the elegant room and came to the door of the quiet and elegant pavilion at the end of the corridor. She raised her hand and was about to knock on the door, but heard a charming voice coming from inside the room.

"My Lord, are you serious about this?"

"Of course." The deep and magnetic voice was full of temptation. "This king never lies."

The charming male voice sounded again: "Then I will trust you for once. I will do whatever you want tonight."

Yun Jin stood there in a daze, his eyes dimmed, his hands hanging at his sides quietly tightened, and a hint of self-mockery appeared in his eyes.

Suddenly, a deep voice sounded: "Who is eavesdropping on me at the door?"

His voice was icy, like the frost and snow in the cold winter month, chilling to the bone.

Yun Jin's heart skipped a beat and he gasped a few times as if he was frightened.

The man in the house seemed to have noticed something and his tone softened: "Come in."
