Ying Wuji never expected that after staying at home for almost two days, he would become famous throughout Jiangcheng.
He almost brought the entire Yihong Pavilion to bankruptcy with his own efforts.
It's really unpleasant to hear it outside.
He grinned: "By the way, Miss Wu, you said that Miss Hua Chao has a different identity, what is the situation?"
This Huachao girl was famous throughout the entire Jiangcheng, and the sound of her stringed instruments was like heavenly music. Although she was just a singer, she attracted many princes and nobles.
However, Ying Wuji used to be very self-disciplined and did not know much about the affairs of brothels. He specially sent Bai Zhi to inquire about it, only to find out that Miss Hua Chao was not a person in the brothel, but was invited to play music in Yihong Pavilion with a large sum of money.
Usually the music is played behind a screen, and only true literati and scholars can go behind the screen and catch a glimpse of her beauty.
It’s probably the status of a top female star in the previous life.
But the "difference" mentioned by Wu Shuangxu is definitely not this "difference".
Wu Shuangxu looked a little serious: "Do you know who Miss Hua Chao's father is?"
Ying Wuji raised his eyebrows: "Who?"
Wu Shuangxu's voice was a little low: "Many years ago, a singing girl came to Jiangcheng with a young daughter, claiming that they were the wife and daughter of the current prime minister when he was in exile. At that time, she was famous in Jiangcheng, but in the end, the singing girl clarified her relationship with the prime minister, left Jiangcheng to sing for a living, and finally died on a rainy night fourteen years ago."
Ying Wuji's mouth twitched: "You don't mean to say that this Hua Chao girl is the illegitimate daughter of the singer and the prime minister?"
Under his gaze, Wu Shuangxu nodded: "Although it's just my speculation, it should be almost correct! There was a case that implicated Miss Hua Chao. It was clearly a death sentence, but in the end she was not hurt at all. According to my estimation, not many people in the entire Jiang City know about this."
Ying Wuji sucked his teeth, this story was too bloody.
Bai Zhi at the side couldn't help but ask: "Since the Prime Minister is willing to protect her, why is he unwilling to admit that she is his daughter? Why did the singer change her words?"
Wu Shuangxu shook his head and said, "I don't know why she didn't want to admit it. But there are signs that the singer changed her words. Although the prime minister is second only to the emperor in Li, he is from a poor family. The reason why he can hold the position is because his wife's family, the Wei family, is behind him. Under such circumstances, it is impossible for him to allow a singer to enter the house."
Bai Zhi suddenly realized: "So he's a gigolo!"
Ying Wuji frowned, according to the information he had learned, the prime minister was a very resourceful man. Even if his current achievements were achieved with the support of his wife's family, it could only be said to be a powerful combination.
Now the key question is not whether the prime minister is a gigolo, but why the person playing the piano is the prime minister's illegitimate daughter?
He looked serious: "So this case is related to the Prime Minister?"
Although the diplomatic relations between Li and Gan are good, it does not mean that there are no other voices in the court. The prime minister often mentioned the threat theory of Gan State, believing that Gan State, which governs the country with the legalist and military strategists, is a country of tigers and wolves, and will become a major threat to the world in time.
Could it be that...
Wu Shuangxu's eyes darkened slightly. "I'm not sure, but even if the Prime Minister wants to harm you, it's unlikely that he would let his illegitimate daughter do it herself. However, the Feiyu Guards forbade their subordinates to investigate this matter, which is most likely because of Miss Hua Chao."
Ying Wuji stared at her: "This matter involves a lot of things, do you want to investigate further?"
"check!"
Although Wu Shuangxu looked solemn, he still did not hesitate at all: "Since I promised to help you find the truth, there is no reason to go back on my word. After we enter Yihong Pavilion, I will act separately from you, and I will appear again when you get close to Miss Hua Chao!"
"Okay! Thank you!"
“No need!”
The two discussed the details again. Wu Shuangxu handed Ying Wuji a wake-up talisman and took twenty taels of silver from him. Then he left with the sword in his arms, looking like an ordinary Mohist swordsman.
Bai Zhi grabbed Ying Wuji's sleeve and said, "Sir! Miss Wu dared to get involved in such a big matter. Does she have other intentions towards you?"
Ying Wuji smiled and rubbed her head: "Don't worry! As long as we are poor enough, no one can take advantage of us!"
Bai Zhi was stunned for a moment: "Sir, what you said makes a lot of sense!"
Not long after, another short and strong young man came running over in a hurry.
This person was Wu Dan. He was also in disguise, but his disguise skills were far inferior to Wu Shuangxu's. One could recognize him without a second glance.
Wu Dan saw Bai Zhi and said, "Brother Wuji! How can you bring your own girls to a brothel?"
If there is one more person, I have to spend twenty more taels. How many fewer times do I have to go to the brothel?
Ying Wuji put his arm around his neck and said, "Stop talking nonsense! We are here to listen to music today. Don't be reluctant to part with your small fortune. I will help you make a lot of money in a few days. And don't call me brother Wuji in the future. It's too formal."
"What's that called?"
"Call me Brother Black Chicken!"
"Brother Black Chicken!"
The two brothers walked arm in arm across the river, staggering across the bridge.
Because the truth has not yet been revealed, the seven famous prostitutes of Yihong Pavilion have all been detained, and business tonight is obviously much worse.
But a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Even so, it is still one of the busiest brothels in Jiangcheng. The noise can be heard from a long distance away. The madam leads a group of beautiful women to go upstairs and downstairs, soliciting customers in a charming or shy manner, which makes the talented men passing by dazzled.
But unexpectedly, after the two brothers arrived, the place became much quieter and everyone looked over.
Ying Wuji was a little unhappy about being stared at: "Why are they looking at us?"
