Reborn: The First Rank "Madam"

C166 – First Time in Brothel

Minister Lee sat for a while and fell asleep with his eyes squinted. Ke Cheng got his servants to help him rest in the inner room and started to deal with the documents seriously.

On the first day that Zuo Shaoqing arrived, Minister Lee didn’t bother to assign any duties to him. Ke Cheng casually threw a key to him and asked him to first look at the records that were processed by the Ministry of Works in the past.

Zuo Shaoqing knew he didn’t want to be separated, so he didn’t say much. He took the key and went to read the documents alone. When he saw that the room was full of bookshelves, he felt that this arrangement wasn’t bad.

Wandering through the papers all day, Zuo Shaoqing’s days were quite comfortable. At first, the officials of Ministry of Works were worried that this person was someone who loved to mess around. After watching from the sidelines for a few days, they realized that this person was a well-behaved and kind-hearted youth.

Zuo Shaoqing had an advantage in facial features. When people smiled at him, it was easy to arouse a man’s good impression, especially when he had a son. Zuo Shaoqing could not help but compare him with the monkey at home.

With such a comparison, it would be impossible to not praise Zuo Shaoqing. Which fourteen-year-old kid could hit the jackpot? Which family’s child could become a fifth-grade official at the age of fourteen?

Thinking about this, everyone’s wariness towards Zuo Shaoqing became weaker and weaker. Some people even went home to educate their own son using Zuo Shaoqing as an example.

However, such an example obviously wouldn’t succeed because as long as his son retorted, “Does father want to marry his son as his daughter in the future?” All of the lords were left speechless.

However, this didn’t stop Zuo Shaoqing from softening his relationship with everyone. Other than a few Methodists who paid special attention to traditional morals, the other big and small officials gradually started to get along with Zuo Shaoqing.

On this day, Zuo Shaoqing looked at the files for the whole day. He rubbed his sore eyes and looked up from the pile of papers. Seeing that it was almost time for him to leave, he started to pack his stuff and locked the door, preparing to go home.

Just as he walked out of the yamen, he saw a figure running towards him in a hurry. Zuo Shaoqing was stunned for a moment because of the person’s slovenly appearance, so he didn’t dodge in time and bumped into him.

At this moment, quite a few officials also walked out. When they saw this scene, they exclaimed and rushed over to help Zuo Shaoqing up.

This person was not some ordinary coarse skin and thick flesh master. Gold was expensive, but what if he messed up Master Lu and blames the entire Ministry of Works would not be good.

Zuo Shaoqing wasn’t delicate to the point that he would fall apart if he was hit by someone. He stood up and patted the dust off his clothes, and before he could open his mouth, he heard the other party ask in an unfriendly tone: “Where did the baby come from?”

The two officials who were supporting Zuo Shaoqing stopped their movements and bowed to each other, “Vice Minister Liang, this is the newly appointed coach of Ministry of Works, the top scholar for this year’s imperial examinations.”

That person thought that the introduction should be clear enough. Who knew that Liang Qi was even more outdated than those scholars who did not listen to outside news. He frowned as he looked at Zuo Shaoqing, “This year’s Imperial Examinations are all dead? A milk baby actually took Kui away from me. “

Zuo Shaoqing’s eyebrows twitched as he jumped from “So this is Liang Qi Vice Minister Liang” to “So Vice Minister Liang is this kind of person”.

He let out a bright smile and saluted: “Vice Minister Liang is too kind, I am already 14 years old.”

Liang Qi scratched his messy head and mumbled something in a low voice. Then he pulled one of the officials and asked, “Has everyone dispersed?”

This was obviously not the first time that the official had interacted with Liang Qi. He squeezed his eyes and replied, “Minister Lee and Vice Minister Ke have already left, the rest have also left for a part.”

Just as they were talking, a few officials walked out and saw Liang Qi obediently bowing to them. They then saw Vice Minister Liang saying in a loud and boisterous voice, “Don’t be too polite, since everyone is here, let’s have a good night’s fun …” Damn it, after being cooped up in the house for so many days, my entire body has started to smell. “

Zuo Shaoqing took a step back and could not keep his smile on his face. No wonder he said what a weird smell just now.

However, everyone else was already used to it. Especially when they heard that Liang Qi was going to treat them, they all agreed with a smile, “How embarrassing, every time we let Vice Minister Liang spend his money!”

“Stop talking nonsense. Since when have you guys not enjoyed yourselves to your heart’s content?”

The others all explained, “That’s because Vice Minister Liang’s salary is the highest.” It would be a waste if he didn’t kill him.

Liang Qi waved his hand and left the yamen. Leading his men, he walked in another direction. After a few steps, he found Zuo Shaoqing was still standing there. He pulled him back and asked, “Why aren’t you leaving?”

Zuo Shaoqing noticed that everyone’s expression immediately changed. They cautiously stared at Wu steel holding his hand. Some of them even wanted to say something but hesitated.

Zuo Shaoqing thought: It’s rare to see this person, so it’s fine to have a meal with him, so he took his hand away and said: “This official will leave by himself.”

Liang Qi rubbed his hands, that slippery touch reminded him of his old sweetheart. However, the other party was a white and tender girl. He laughed mischievously and asked obscenely, “Do you know what’s good for you?”

Zuo Shaoqing’s mouth twitched, “Why would Lord Liang ask that?”

Liang Qi put his arm around Liang Qi’s shoulder and led him two steps forward, “It’s boring if you didn’t go to the place we’re going, so of course I have to ask. You can’t just sit on the side while everyone else is having fun, can you?”

No matter how stupid Zuo Shaoqing was, he knew where they were going. Seeing his colleagues wink at Liang Qi, he heroically nodded his head.

Someone suddenly felt bad and came over to pull Liang Qi, reminding him in an obscure tone: “Vice Minister Liang, Director Zuo is still young, why don’t we meet another day?”

“Hey, didn’t you hear him say that he already knows about people? Little what? There might even be a few concubines hidden in the room! “

The official’s expression turned strange as he thought to himself, “He doesn’t know if the other teenagers had a beautiful wife or a beautiful concubine when they were 14 years old, but they definitely wouldn’t have one.”

Seeing that Liang Qi did not understand, he was just about to remind him again when Zuo Shaoqing interrupted him: “Ladies and gentlemen, you worry too much. It’s rare to see Lord Liang, I also want to join in the fun.”

Unable to refuse, the group could only bring this troublesome colleague of theirs along.

When they stood outside the most famous building in the capital, Zuo Shaoqing looked at the luxurious decorations, listening to the laughter and jokes coming from inside. Third Master Zuo, who was going to visit the brothel for the first time in his two lives, suddenly had a thought of retreating.

If Master Lu knew that Ye Zichen went up to the brothel, he would probably write down the letter and divorce him!

Liang Qi mistakenly thought that he was shocked by the magnificence of the Spring Breeze House and proudly boasted: “How about it? Not bad, right? This building was designed by myself. It is definitely one of the most unique brothels in the capital. “

Zuo Shaoqing chuckled. He thought to himself, “A third rank official like you actually designed a blueprint for a brothel, is this really worth showing off?”

Business has spread throughout the entire Great Yang, and the girls inside are all slim and had all sorts of flavors. Rest assured, this is my first time here, so I’ll definitely pick a fresh and tender son for you!

Hearing this, the surrounding officials’ eyes twitched. Some of them even thought of sending someone to Duke Zhen Manor to report this. Otherwise, if Master Lu was caught red-handed, they, these ‘accomplices’, would end up in a worrisome situation.

Before they could move, a well-dressed woman walked out, and approached Liang Qi while twisting her small waist, “Yo, Lord Liang, how long has it been since you last came here? Is there a new relationship? “

Liang Qi touched her butt and snickered: “What are you joking about? In the entire capital, which girl could compare to our flower maiden? “

The flower lady pouted playfully, “If you’re the only one with such a sweet mouth, then why are you still standing at the door? “Hurry up and go in. I’ve already prepared hot water for you to wash.”

Liang Qi went up and gave her a kiss shamelessly, “If you dare to complain about my stinky smell, I’ll make you cry and beg for forgiveness later.”

Zuo Shaoqing began to look down on this Vice Minister Liang more and more. He thought that if Lu Zheng came to find him in a while, he would blame it on Liang Qi. Who asked him to bring such a pure and innocent him to a brothel?

The Great Yang forbade officials from whoring. As soon as Zuo Shaoqing entered the door, he saw a few court officials he knew, each of them being unrestrained and unrestrained. They were very different from their usual seriousness, and his heart felt that these officials’ wives and concubines were not worth it.

There were also people who accidentally saw Zuo Shaoqing in the crowd. They shook their dizzy heads and thought, “They must be seeing things. How dare Wife of Duke Zhen come to this kind of place?” Aren’t you afraid that Master Lu will hack him?

Zuo Shaoqing looked around curiously until he sat down in the spacious and comfortable room. He was still a bit uncertain as he thought, “I really went to the brothel!”

Liang Qi and the others had come quite a few times, and most of them were old friends, so they didn’t need to pick anyone. They just asked Hua Niang to call them over, but when they got to Zuo Shaoqing’s side, Hua Niang exclaimed: “Hey, Lord Liang, why did you bring such a young child over? “Don’t you dare harm my good, proper child!”

It was unknown whether that flower lady didn’t know Zuo Shaoqing or didn’t recognize him. Most people would feel numb even if they saw him. No one would think that the dignified Wife of Duke Zhen would go to the brothel.

Zuo Shaoqing smiled shyly and sat on the side without saying anything. He was already too daring to come in. If he really dared to ask for a woman, then the Spring Breeze House would close down tomorrow.
