Chapter 27 Spring Warming Pavilion
Many people confuse prostitutes and brothels, including Chen Mo. Before coming to Luoyang, he didn't quite understand the difference. There is also a brothel in Dangli, opened by the Tang family. Tang Yuan also invited Chen Mo, but at that time Zang Hong
Worried that Chen Mo would go astray and indulge in the Wenwen Village, he issued a strict order not to allow Chen Mo to step into it. Therefore, although Chen Mo wanted to understand, he had no way out.
After arriving in Luoyang, Cao Cao invited Chen Mo to a brothel several times. It was only then that Chen Mo understood the difference between a brothel and a prostitute.
Prostitutes are engaged in the business of selling flesh and blood. They have been around for a long time. Brothels have been around for a long time. However, compared to prostitutes, brothels are much more elegant.
In terms of the source of customers, most of the people who go to prostitutes are prostitutes, while most of those who go to brothels are scholars, and the sisters-in-law among them are not the kind of women who sell themselves. They are not proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but most of them are
There is a person who specializes in speaking elegantly, and the scholars are not here for physical pleasure, but mostly to be polite.
Moreover, the brothel is private and not open to the public. Even if you have money, you cannot enter without someone inviting you. Of course, you still have to spend the money you should spend. Most of the time inside, you can listen to music and dance, and if you like it,
Your sister-in-law can invite you to drink, but if your sister-in-law doesn't want to, you can't force her to drink.
Chun Nuan Pavilion is said to be the Yuan family's family property in Luoyang. They usually invite celebrities or high-ranking officials. Cao Cao was able to bring him here. It seems that the Cao family is not as isolated as he imagined.
The sound of silk and bamboo was like gurgling water, flowing between the buildings, making people happy physically and mentally. Cao Cao groped his long beard and admired the graceful figure of the woman on the dance floor. He shook his head and said with a smile: "Benchu, I haven't seen you in the past few years. Spring is warm."
But the pavilion has become more and more prosperous."
"In such a quiet place, why would Meng De mention such mundane things, defeating Yaxing in vain." Yuan Shao, who was sitting at the top, had not yet spoken, but Yuan Shu beside him said with some dissatisfaction.
"How come there are so many refined and vulgar things in this world? I still remember when you put chickens in your eagle's den." Cao Cao said with a smile.
When Yuan Shu heard this, his face darkened, but his aura became a bit weaker: "How do you count the ridiculous things you did when you were a child? Besides, it wasn't your idea?"
But at that time, Yuan Shu had a pair of eagles at home. Cao Cao wanted to see if the eagle would eat the chickens if they were put into the eagle's nest and the chicks hatched. Yuan Shu actually did it.
"Okay." Yuan Shao couldn't help laughing when he thought of the way the mother eagle stared at the chick for an hour after it hatched. He turned to look at Cao Cao and said, "But, Meng De, you said that an eagle is also like a human being."
Normally, how would you feel at that time?"
"I guess the male eagle and the female eagle will have a fight." Cao Cao laughed.
"Vulgar!" Yuan Shu glared at Cao Cao fiercely, but couldn't help but laugh.
When the three of them started, they were accompanied by three others, but they were not as relaxed as Cao Cao.
"I remember that you were the one who encouraged us to steal our newlywed wives." Yuan Shu looked at Cao Cao angrily and snorted: "Do you know what happened to that woman?"
"I didn't do anything." Cao Cao smacked his lips, thinking about the ridiculous things he did back then, and he felt a little ashamed. However, after that, he returned to his hometown, and he really didn't care about what happened next, so he couldn't help but ask: "
How's it going?"
"I was kicked out of my husband's house, and I threw myself into a well out of anger. Fortunately, my family rescued me in time, but..." Yuan Shu sighed, and seeing some regret on Cao Cao's face, he shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I'm here to help you."
I brought her family to Runan and helped her find a new home. She is from a poor family, but for her, it is considered a high achievement."
"Thanks to the highway for this, otherwise Cao Cao might have regretted it for a long time." Cao Cao said solemnly to Yuan Shu.
"Hey, you were the one who came up with many of the ridiculous things we did back then, and we were the ones who got a bad name. I deserve this gift!" Yuan Shu didn't want to pursue it, otherwise he wouldn't have dealt with Cao Cao's aftermath, but for Cao Cao
He accepted this gift gladly.
"Mengde, you invited us to have a banquet here this time, saying that you would recommend talents for us, but you don't know where they are?" Where the three of them started, a scribe asked with a smile.
"Come on, this man is a disciple of Zang Ziyuan. I met him on the way. Although he is young, he has a strong mind and a photographic memory. He also has unique insights in the art of war. He is a rare talent. This time he enters Luoyang.
, worshiped as a boy, although he is young, we hit it off as old friends, and we treat him like brothers." Cao Cao said with a smile.
"Tongzilang? Brother?" Yuan Shao and others were stunned for a moment. No matter how old a boy is, he will usually not reach the top. In other words, he is only nineteen years old. Cao Cao is already thirty-four this year.
He is considered a brother to a teenage boy? And Zang Hong and the others know that, even though he is younger than Cao Cao, Cao Cao is considered a brother to his disciples? Yuan Shao couldn't help but ask: "How old is he?"
"Fourteen." Cao Cao said calmly.
"I thought you were ridiculous before." Yuan Shu looked at Cao Cao seriously: "At fourteen, I am no older than my son, and you are only one year older than Ru Zi'ang. You and he are considered brothers? If you meet Zang Ziyuan in the future, you should
How to match it?"
"Everyone has their own thing to do. Why not? Don't look at this kid. He is young. He has learned as much as you and me." Cao Cao waved his hands nonchalantly. He really liked Chen Mo, but he really didn't care about his talent.
Being buried was just a joke at first, but now, Cao Cao is ready to surrender his identity and ask Chen Mo to help him.
"Since I have been worshiped as a young boy, why don't I see him show his fame at these times?" Yuan Shu asked with a frown.
"Today's Taiyuan College is no longer the Taiyuan College you and I used to have. There are talents but no one. Even if you have the talent to help the world, it is difficult to become famous. Since this person is a disciple of Ziyuan, what is his background?" Yuan Shao asked.
"The Chen family of Huaipu, after Chen Xiegong, their ancestor Chen Qiong was the younger brother of Taiwei Chen Qiugong. However, his family fell into decline and his reputation is no longer visible in the world." Cao Cao said with a smile.
"Pangzhi'er." Yuan Shu shook his head and laughed when he heard this. If he were a descendant of Chen Gui or Chen Yu, he would still sell him some face, but Chen Qiong? Cao Cao guarantees that he is indeed a person, but he is no longer a nobleman, even from a humble family.
I'm afraid it's just barely possible.
Although Yuan Shu just said it casually, Yuan Shao on the side looked unhappy. He was also a commoner, so even though he knew that Yuan Shu's words were not directed at him, he was instinctively disgusted.
"Since he is recommended by Meng De, there must be something special about him, as long as his family is clean." Yuan Shao shook his head and said, "What's more, he is still a disciple of Ziyuan, so he should be seen."
There was some element of anger, but when Cao Cao spoke, he was a disciple of Zang Hong, and Yuan Shao was really curious about the young man who could be admired by both of them.
