The cycle of history is nothing more than the going round and round of human nature.

When faced with an imperial envoy sent by the emperor, as long as he is not an official like Hai Rui, the routine of dealing with it will basically not change - keep the superficial accounts in order, and then secretly give money, beautiful women, and valuable things to the imperial envoy. Minister, I hope that when the imperial envoy meets the Holy Spirit, he will not reveal the problem even if he does not say a few nice words.

This is similar to the folk method of dealing with the Stove Lord.

During the Chinese New Year, people often worship the Stove Lord with the following words: God will say good things, and the lower world will be safe.

Li Yan didn't know who Shen Yue was, but the way to deal with him was obviously normal secular methods.

Hearing the sweet sound of silk bamboo and smelling the scent of rouge, Shen Yue suddenly said, "Is the brothel in the capital nearby?"

Lin Lingsu was stunned for a moment, thinking to herself why Shen Yue was asking this?

He was different from Li Yan. Li Yan believed that Shen Yue was just a corrupt official who looked very upright, but he knew that this man would never be greedy for money or sex.

Instead, Li Yan smiled knowingly and thought, "You may seem smart, but you still have a fox's tail. If you had just arrived in the capital, how would you have known that the brothel was approaching?"

He and Shen Yue had similar guesses, secretly thinking that this person didn't know anything, but the Holy One sent this person to collect the land. No need to ask, the Holy One must give this person some benefits.

This is called corruption by order.

Money and sex do not separate families. If Shen Yue is greedy for money, he will naturally be lustful. He will take him to a famous brothel in the capital, where he will be drunk and lustful. If he falls into it, he should give in to his fancy. At that time, the crisis will be unsolved. untie.

Li Yan was extremely skilled in this routine.

Even though he thought this way, Li Yan still pretended to be confused and said, "Mr. Shen is really a wise person. Although he is the first to come to the capital, he still has a vivid understanding of the major events and minor sentiments in the capital."

He didn't know that Shen Yue really came to the conclusion through observation, so he said with a smile, "Come out of the palace and approach Panlou East Street. After crossing the bridge, there are north and south sloping streets, and there is Taishan Temple inside."

Seeing that Shen Yue did not intend to enter the temple of Jing Nian for a look, but seemed to want to go to the Mi Mi Building to investigate in detail, Li Yan finally said: "There are brothels on both streets, Mr. Shen, would you like to take a look?"

Shen Yue nodded, "If it doesn't delay the land acquisition, you can go and have a look."

"Don't delay, don't delay."

Li Yan saw that Shen Yue looked like a member of the same profession and secretly said, "I guarantee that everything will be done properly and will not delay Mr. Shen's report to the Holy One."

He put his head out of the car and gave instructions, and the driver drove across the bridge and into the street with ease.

In order to be on the safe side, Li Yan smiled and said, "Does Mr. Shen have a place that he likes?" He was sure that Shen Yue knew the way, and secretly thought that if Shen Yue liked any singer, no matter what, he would buy it with a lot of money and give it to Shen Yue.

But it was Shen Yue who caught the princess's eye and seemed to want to become a quick son-in-law. Then he went straight to the brothel to have fun, which seemed a bit too wanton. Since ancient times, Li Yan rarely heard of such a dissolute person as Shen Yue.

But Shen Yue is not afraid, and Li Yan is certainly not afraid either.

Shen Yue muttered, "If you want to go, of course you have to go to the best place."

Li Yan understood even more, "Mr. Shen is absolutely right. There are so many brothels in the capital, both good and bad. With Mr. Shen's talent, the best place is suitable for Mr. Shen's status."

As if meeting a close friend, he said with a selective barrier: "But the best thing is that there are two places."

Generally speaking, the barrier to choice is due to lack of money. However, Li Yan's barrier to choice seems to be because the two places are exceptionally good and both are holy places for men in the capital.

Shen Yue humbly asked, "Which two places?"

"The first place is naturally the master's hall." Li Yan's eyes flashed, as if he was hiding something unsaid.

Lin Lingsu suddenly said, "I'm afraid the Master's Hall is not as good as Nian Nujiao."

Li Yan then smiled and said, "Yes, if Mr. Shen is interested, Niannujiao is definitely a great place to go." As he spoke, he glanced at Lin Lingsu, secretly wary.

Lin Lingsu, however, remained calm.

Shen Yue read a different flavor.

Teacher's Hall?

Master Li?

Few people ask about official history, while unofficial history confuses people's minds.

It seems to be like today's situation. Since ancient times, the unofficial history and romantic affairs of emperors and generals have always received a lot of attention.

According to legend, a secret story between Li Shishi and Zhao Ji is naturally very popular.

Li Shishi was a famous prostitute in the capital, but Zhao Ji still had three thousand people in his harem, so he dug a tunnel to lead to Li Shishi's residence, and later generations knew about it.

What about the person involved? Do you know?

When Shen Yue saw Li Yan and Lin Lingsu's expressions, he thought to himself that this was probably true.

Li Yan definitely knows that Li Shishi and Zhao Ji are having an affair, so he mentioned Shishiguan on purpose just now, but in fact there is a hidden agenda. You, Shen Yue, are equal to the Holy One, but what if they are women? Can we still be harmonious?

Shen Yue has met many people who show respect on the surface but hide evil intentions.

Li Yan wants to take Shen Yue to the ditch!

Lin Lingsu saw through Li Yan's intentions and suggested to Shen Yue not to go to the Master's Hall and instead choose Nujiao to avoid complications.

Shen Yue's heart was like a mirror, and Li Yan acted like a normal person and gave instructions to the driver. After a while, the car stopped in front of a building on the long street.

It is said to be a brothel, but in terms of decoration style, it is only magnificent and luxurious. The front of the building is decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and it looks like a wedding ceremony. It must be to cater to the man's psychology of being a groom.

As the afternoon passed, the prosperity of the Song Dynasty in the capital was no less than that of modern times. Afternoon tea was naturally served, and there were not many people coming to Nian Nujiao, a brothel.

What hinders most men from entering is usually not time, but money.

Shen Yue stood in front of the building and saw the men entering the brothel, dressed in fine clothes and looking extraordinary. He knew that in contemporary times, this place would definitely be a top club.

When Li Yan arrived in front of the building, the greeter standing in front of the door looked surprised, but he still came forward enthusiastically and said, "What kind of wind brought Mr. Li here?"

There is no way to welcome guests without being surprised.

Li Yan's official position sounds nice - a general manager, but he is actually a eunuch. Eunuchs are usually rarely here, for no other reason. No matter how many women you find to accompany you, it will only make others laugh secretly.

Some eccentric eunuchs like to find other ways, and most of them smuggle girls from brothels into private houses. Naturally, no one pays attention to what they do. Scenes like Li Yan's swaggering arrival in a carriage are really rare.

Of course, eunuchs also visit brothels, but most of them just accompany customers, so this incident somewhat hurts their self-esteem.

Since Li Yan became the general manager of Da Nei, he has actually not set foot in this place.

Despite being surprised, Li Yan could still calmly say, "Is Niannu here?"

The guest smiled and said, "Master Li, you are joking. This is Nian Nujiao, so naturally Nian Nu is here. Master Li, please come inside."

In front of the monks, I don't scold the bald donkey. In front of the eunuchs, with my position of welcoming guests, I don't dare to call the manager, so I can only cover it up with the title of "sir."

Li Yan saluted Shen Yue and said, "Mr. Shen, please go first."

The guest almost knelt on the ground.

Of course he knew Li Yan's status. If Li Yan conquered the land here, no one would dare to object. Li Yan was well-known in the capital for his arrogance and domineering, but how could such a person be so polite to a young man?
