********

A gorgeously decorated carriage drove slowly on the spacious street, leaving deep ruts on the snow on the street, which was covered with heavy snow in the blink of an eye.

The carriage was covered with thick felt, a low table was placed in the middle, and there was even a charcoal stove covered with a copper cover in the corner, emitting heat.

There is a copper pot on the low table, and there is warm wine in the pot.

The warm wine enters the throat. Although the wine tastes sour, it also dissipates the coldness all over the body.

Du He smiled and said: "Fang Er, the injury is healed?"

Fang Jun touched the back of his head and said, "It's almost good, but there is still some pain."

But I thought in my heart: What's the matter? He fell to death, otherwise how could I occupy the magpie's nest?

Cheng Chubi was a little angry: "It's all Chai Lingwu's fault. He was the one who whipped your mount that day, causing you to fall off the horse. This man is so bad!"

Fang Jun was shocked, is there such a thing?

He always thought that the horse crash incident was an accident, and there was nothing special in his memory, so he didn't care about it.

But Cheng Chubi was a simple and honest person, and he was best friends with Fang Yiai. He spoke very little but never went into unnecessary detail. Every word he said had a purpose. If he said it happened, it must have happened.

Fang Jun thought to himself that when he had time, he would ask Cheng Chubi what he knew and take precautions as early as possible.

Du He said, "Ling Wu just made an unintentional mistake. Don't take it to heart, Fang Er. And you, Cheng Chubi, don't talk nonsense. Did you see Chai Lingwu whipping Fang Er's horse with one eye?"


Cheng Chubi scratched his neck and blushed: "I never tell lies, I just saw it with my own eyes!"

Du He wanted to say more, but Fang Jun waved his hand: "That's the end of the matter. Anyway, it's not a serious problem for me, so there is no need to pursue it."

Cheng Chubi then snorted angrily.

Du He was a little embarrassed, so he laughed and said: "I heard that 'Zui Xian Lou' has recently introduced a gentry named Li Xue. It is said that she has a beautiful appearance, a graceful figure, and is also very smart. She is good at playing chess, calligraphy and painting. The dignitaries in Chang'an are flocking to them, and I will introduce the two worthy brothers to you later!"

Among the three, Du He is the longest, followed by Fang Jun, and Cheng Chubi is the youngest.

In terms of their relationship, Fang Jun and Cheng Chubi are closer, perhaps because they share the same problem. Both of them are simple-minded and silly...

As he spoke, the carriage paused lightly and stopped.

The three of them got out of the car after the charioteer adjusted the curtain, and found that they were in front of a brothel called "Zui Xian Lou". A waiter at the door had already come to greet them, and they were waiting for the distinguished guests to get out of the car.

The Prime Minister's son and the young master of the Duke's family have similar status and age, so they usually get along well.

However, the treatment after entering the hall is absolutely different.

It is said that although Du He was also the prime minister, Du Ruhui died in the fourth year of Zhenguan. Although His Majesty Li Er's favor was never cut off, and even Princess Chengyang, the legitimate daughter of Empress Changsun, was proposed to be married to Du He, the popularity was still not good enough. On the first floor, they are inferior to Fang Jun and Cheng Chubi, whose fathers both hold high positions.

But the truth is exactly the opposite.

As soon as he entered the lobby, Du Hena was like a star holding the moon, with his head raised and chest raised like a victorious "fighting chicken", and he was taking a figure-eight step at his feet, feeling proud. The fact that Du He was so favored by his sister was definitely not only related to his status as the prime minister's son. Look at the smiling faces of these beautiful girls, it is a kind of love from the bottom of my heart.

Fang Jun and Cheng Chubi were like two followers, almost ignored...

There is a kind of abnormal aesthetic taste in Chinese history: the "yin and yang inversion" of men's and women's clothing and accessories is considered beautiful. Women often wear men's clothing, while men "wear women's clothing." Especially some celebrities in the upper class pay too much attention to their appearance. It once became a fashion to use facial makeup, lipstick and other female cosmetics to cover your hair.

This kind of abnormal aesthetic taste was undoubtedly the most severe among all dynasties in the Sui, Tang and Five Dynasties!

She is simply an ancient sissy and a transvestite...

There were indeed many "boys" among men during the Sui, Tang and Five Dynasties periods.

Wu Zetian's male favorites Zhang Yizhi and Zhang Changzong brothers are typical "white faces". The "Old Book of Tang" says that the Zhang brothers were "painted with powder and vermilion, and their clothes were exquisite and embroidered." Zhang Changzong was even praised as "People say that Liu Lang's face looks like a peach blossom. If you think about it again, you think a lotus looks like Liu Lang, and a non-Liu Lang looks like a lotus." The man's oily hair and pink face, and his makeup to look like a modern "sissy" probably have a lot to do with the preference of "white faces" by powerful ladies of the Tang Dynasty such as Wu Zetian and Princess Taiping.

Wu Zetian’s criteria for selecting beautiful boys to accompany her are “white and beautiful men”...

Since the ladies of the upper class like "pretty faces", both the government and the public are imitating them. Men have beauties, put on women's makeup, and decorate in novel ways, which has gradually become a fashion.

During the Sui, Tang and Five Dynasties, it was also popular for fashionable men to "scent their clothes". The custom of using incense to diffuse clothes probably started in the Han Dynasty and became very popular in the Tang Dynasty.

During this period, it was also popular for men to wear hairpins. Hairpins are originally a kind of decoration that ancient women wore on their buns or crowns. The hairpins were made of flowers, flowers, or silk. Du Mu once wrote a poem: "It is difficult to laugh in this world, and I must return home with my head full of chrysanthemums."

Can you imagine a hunky-backed man with an ass on his head?

The picture is so beautiful that I dare not look at it...

Although it is now the Zhenguan period, the prosperous age has emerged, and the social atmosphere has gradually become extravagant and exaggerated. The golden horse and iron horse of the founding of the early Tang Dynasty are already a thing of the past. The trend of fun and enjoyment is prevalent, and all kinds of weird "trends" are becoming more and more popular.

Although it has not yet reached the stage where men wear flowers, it is not far away. At least in the world's aesthetics, "pretty faces" are regarded as beautiful.

Du He, who has clear eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, echoes the current aesthetic values. In Fang Jun's opinion, his slightly "girly" temperament is very popular.

Fang Jun actually looks pretty good, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a generous smile. Although he is not tall, he is strong and straight. Although his skin is a little dark, it is full of a healthy luster. He will be regarded as a sunny and beautiful boy in future generations. Posting a photo can attract countless fans.

But in this era, he has become a country man, vulgar, and looks like the bottom of a pot...

Cheng Chubi completely inherited the genes of his father Cheng Yaojin. He was a rough-looking man, even worse than Fang Jun.

So as soon as they entered the gate of Zuixian Tower, the beauties in the lobby were all swarming with smiles and greeting Du He, the pretty boy. However, Cheng Chubi with a rough face and Fang Jun with a simple smile ignored him.

Fang Jun and Cheng Chubi have strict family control, and rarely set foot in such romantic places. They don't recognize you as the young master of the Prime Minister's family or the son of the Duke's family...

Du He has a prominent status and is a frequent visitor to the brothel, so his treatment is very different.

Fang Jun and Cheng Chubi were inevitably depressed. Fang Jun even thought that Princess Gaoyang looked down on him, could it be because Bian Ji was a pretty boy and he did not meet her aesthetic standards?

At this moment, a sneer reached everyone's ears.

"I never thought that Fang Er would miss such a romantic place? Haha, but you have to prepare enough money for whoring. Du Er can handle the accounts just by relying on his reputation. For a rough guy like you, I'm afraid the price of my sisters' overnight stay will be high. Twice..."

The hall was silent at first, then burst into laughter.

Those girls, while covering their mouths and smiling, secretly glanced at Fang Jun with their eyes.

How could someone who could be ridiculed by His Highness King Qi be an ordinary person? I just don’t know whether this dark boy is that adult’s son. Although he looks decent, he is a bit too dark, but his body is strong. He must have good endurance after turning off the lights and rolling on the bed...


Fang Jun frowned and looked around.

As soon as I looked up, I saw a group of teenagers standing at the end of the stairs on the second floor, all dressed in gorgeous clothes and arrogant.

I'm just thinking about how to find trouble. Which dear would give me a pillow when he sees me sleeping?

By the way, why did Fang Jun change his mind and follow Cheng Chubi and Du He out?

The purpose is very simple, just to tarnish your reputation!

Didn’t ancient people pay great attention to reputation? Can’t reputation be used as a credit card?

Well, my reputation is not very good, and if I completely ruin it, I don’t believe that the wise and mighty Majesty Li Er is willing to marry his daughter to a gangster!

The purpose of this trip is to visit the brothel and then find trouble and fight! Not only that, but he also wanted to make the matter bigger and make it known to everyone in Chang'an City. It is said that it is easy to destroy but difficult to build. It is not easy to cultivate one's moral character and raise one's aspirations. Isn't it easy to tarnish one's reputation?
