Visitors are guests. No matter whether the two shopkeepers enter the brothel to show off their drunkenness or to be vindictive, they are all welcome to the brothel shopkeepers, especially when the two shopkeepers are drunk and generous. Neither of them can see that the other is richer than themselves, even if the other party

If he takes a fancy to a sow, he will spend money to get rich, and he will put the sow into his arms.

There are several brothels in Pingkangfang that have actually done this.

While the two of them were drunk, they found a fat and ugly girl who usually couldn't sit on the stage, and forcibly boasted that she was the courtesan of the brothel. After the two shopkeepers got drunk, their IQ and aesthetic level seriously dropped, and they impulsively exchanged words with each other.

The fight started, and staggering amounts of money were spent. In the end, Hao Donglai, who usually had a relatively rich net worth, came out on top. He proudly hugged the fat girl and entered the room, while Shi Daxing, who was drunk, beat his chest and feet and cried bitterly, as if he had lost his true love.

.

As for the expression on Hao Donglai's face when he woke up the next day when he looked at the fat girl next to him with a contented face and snoring like thunder, no one knew. He wanted to commit suicide but was afraid of the pain, wanted to kill the fat girl next to him but was afraid of being sued, and his heart surged.

I have the feeling that I spent money but was cheated by others, which is probably the case with conflicting and complicated emotions.

However, once people get drunk, they often forget their lessons and change to a brothel the next night to continue drinking and fighting for wealth.

Hao Donglai and Shi Daxing spent most of their nights in a brothel after coming to Chang'an, which is very consistent with their characters as rich but spiritually empty.

Tonight, the two shopkeepers moved to a new brothel. They were drinking heavily. When they were greeting each other's female elders by pointing their noses, the officer from Wannian County suddenly rushed in. The leader stood at the door with his knife pressed and shouted loudly.

He asked: "Who is Hao Donglai and who is Shi Daxing?"

The two shopkeepers drank to their seventh degree and seemed to be drunk but not drunk. Seeing that the servants looked like they were coming with bad intentions, they both wisely kept their mouths shut. The two incompatible people had a tacit understanding at this moment and did not even make eye contact.

, the knees gradually bent, and the body became shorter in the crowd.

Seeing no one answered, the leading officer shouted: "Anyone who has nothing to do with it will go out immediately. We are only going to ask Hao Donglai and Shi Daxing, two businessmen from Shuzhou, hurry up!"

A group of guards were guarding the door, and the guests in the brothel panicked and walked out the door one after another.

Hao Donglai and Shi Daxing also walked out with frowning eyes among the crowd, and they walked very low-key. The two of them bent their knees and dwarfed themselves by a large amount in the crowd, slowly taking small steps.

After all, the two of them were too naive. The Wannian County police officers were obviously well prepared. The leader unfolded two paintings in his hands. They were exactly what Hao Donglai and Shi Daxing looked like. Every person who left the brothel had to be carefully scrutinized by the police officers.

Identified until the officers found the two shopkeepers walking on their knees among the crowd.

One of the two shopkeepers was fatter than a pig, and the other had a ferocious face. They were very recognizable, especially when they were walking on their knees in the crowd, just like two sesame seed sellers jumping around under the crotches of the crowd. The guards immediately noticed it.

They then laughed and pointed at the two of them.

"It's them, take them down!"

The two shopkeepers looked desperate. The guards stepped forward and put chains on their necks. They were lassoed like wild horses on the grassland. Looking at the guards who were roping them, it turned out that the men roping the horses were strong and powerful.

The two shopkeepers complained repeatedly, and until now they still haven't figured out what happened. Since they came to Chang'an, they have always abided by the law and have never done anything illegal. If they insist on setting up a crime, at most they will just

When I was in a brothel, I was a little arrogant and disturbed the market price of the brothel. I will be caught for this?

The officers were ordered to take people away, but they ignored their complaints and led them away in chains.

Shi Daxing was shocked and frightened. He turned around and looked at Hao Donglai with a fat face. He suddenly became angry and kicked Hao Donglai... motionlessly.

"It's all your fault! He's as fat as a pig and can be recognized at a glance, otherwise Shi would have run away long ago!"

Hao Donglai was furious: "You are handsome, but your face looks like a wanted document from the government. How dare you blame me? Bah!"

Shi Daxing was too lazy to pay attention to him and smiled at the officer: "May I ask you, officer, what on earth have we committed and why are we being arrested?"

The officer looked at them coldly and said: "I have been ordered to take the person. If I want to know what happened, I will go back to the county government office and explain clearly."

Gu Qing was sitting alone in the room, preparing the second issue of the gossip newspaper.

From the beginning of a painting, the whole process depends on making up. The essence of gossip is not whether it is true or not, but whether the process is wonderful and whether it can fully satisfy people's desire to peek into other people's privacy.

This time, the headliner on the front page is Li Guangbi. As for the content...

Well, it is said that he is henpecked, and is beaten by his mother-in-law three times a day, and occasionally has a midnight snack. The title should be eye-catching, "Surprise! Why did General Li Lang scream in the middle of the night? Why did the Li family frequently invite doctors from Chang'an? Who translated Yuefu's Desolate Song,

Weeping every night until dawn..."

Gu Qing drafted the title and nodded with satisfaction. With such a hot title, at least two thousand copies of this issue of the gossip newspaper would have to be printed.

As for Li Guangbi’s reaction after seeing this issue of the gossip newspaper, it’s not important. For the rapid advancement of journalism and culture, it is worth being hung up and beaten by him. Who has never paid a price for his success?

Gu Qing has also thought about the content of the next issue. In the next issue, he should praise Concubine Yang. The allusion of "the moon is shy of the flower" can be used. The concubine will be photographed so that her flowers are trembling. Even if Gu Qing does not get any benefits for the time being,

At least it's easy to be forgiven when you say something wrong.

Gu Qing's mouth sometimes reacts faster than his brain. He is always worried that one day he will blurt out something he shouldn't say in front of Concubine Yang, such as the idiom "the ring is fat and the swallow is thin"...

After finishing arranging the content of this issue of the gossip newspaper, Gu Qing suppressed the written content with a paperweight, and was about to ask Hao Donglai and Shi Daxing to take it out to print the newspaper, when Gu Qing was stunned.

It seems that the two shopkeepers have not been seen since yesterday evening. The chastity of these two people is basically equal to a negative number. As for chastity, their chastity value is very unstable. Sometimes it is a positive number, sometimes it is a negative number. It changes quickly, but the peak value

It was very short. The two of them went to the brothel in Pingkangfang almost every night. They often came back drunk in the middle of the night, but they never stayed overnight. What happened last night? How high are these two?

A hint of uneasiness rose in his heart, and Gu Qing sat there uneasily for a long time before finally giving up and sighing.

Having just arrived in Chang'an, he is timid in everything he does. Gu Qing lacks information channels, lacks connections, lacks everything, and wants to do something. However, after all, the emperor is surrounded by dangers, so Gu Qing can only choose to stay dormant, and he doesn't know where his wings are.

It takes time to be strong.

There was a gentle knocking sound at the door. Gu Qing stood up and opened the door. Standing outside the door was a woman dressed in men's attire. She was about twenty years old. Her hair was tied into a men's bun and she wore a belt around her waist.

Holding a sword, she looks heroic, a typical image of a chivalrous woman.

The chivalrous girl was very polite. When she saw Gu Qing, she clasped her fists and saluted, and then said: "Mr. Gu, I am an attendant of the Twelve Mother's Mansion. The Twelve Mother sent me to report that the two Shuzhou businessmen who came to Chang'an with you last night

She was taken away by Wannian County policemen in a brothel and is now in the Wannian County jail."

Gu Qing was startled and his face suddenly turned cold: "What's going on? What did the two of them commit?"

"The reason why Wannian County suddenly arrested people is unknown. Twelve Niang said that it may be related to the gossip newspaper that Mr. Gu recently ran..."

"How did Aunt Li know that I was the one who ran the gossip newspaper?"

"The Twelfth Mother is very well-informed in Chang'an. She knows all the things that the first-rank officials don't know. Since Mr. Gu came to Chang'an, she has been paying close attention to your every move. The Twelfth Mother told Mr. Gu to be careful in case of trouble.

Don't be impulsive, she is asking someone to ask Wannian County Magistrate Chen Wensheng that there should be a result before dark today."

Gu Qing's face was ashen and he slowly shook his head: "I'm afraid we won't be able to wait until dark. The two of them have no backers in Chang'an. The police officers will not be polite to them after entering the prison. If they wait until dark, they will probably have to collect their bodies."

The female attendant was stunned for a moment, and then said anxiously: "Mr. Gu, please don't be impulsive. The Twelve Mothers are working on this matter, and there will be results soon."

Gu Qing said firmly: "I brought them from Shuzhou, and I want to keep them safe. One moment later is the difference between life and death, and I can't afford the risk."

As he spoke, Gu Qing hurried out and the female attendant had no choice but to follow him.

Gu Qing asked as he walked: "Did you come here on horseback or in a carriage?"

"carriage."

"Come on, take me for a ride."

"Where do you want Mr. Gu to go?"

"Taifu Temple, look for Yang Guozhong."

"Is this matter related to Yang Guozhong?"

Gu Qing did not answer, and silently got into the carriage parked in front of his house. The female attendant did not follow the rules and got into the carriage happily. The coachman whipped his whip, and the carriage started walking slowly on the stone road.

Half an hour later, the carriage arrived at Taifu Temple on the side of Zhuque Avenue. Although Yang Guozhong had served fifteen officials, the most important one was Taifuqing. Taifuqing was in charge of the court's money and grain warehouses and the salt and iron warehouse, which belonged to the Jiuqing.

one.

Gu Qing hurriedly got out of the carriage and handed his badge to the sergeant at the door. The sergeant glanced lazily and ignored him.

Gu Qing smiled bitterly, there were not many other people in Chang'an city, and there were a lot of officials. A mere eighth-rank official who joined the army would not be qualified to meet the chief minister.

In desperation, Gu Qing had no choice but to tell the sergeant that he was Yang Taifu's younger brother and had once killed a tiger in Jingyanggang.

The sergeant looked up and down with disbelief on his face. However, people these days attach great importance to the ties between local clans. The identity of "brother of the same clan" is much more important than joining the army. The sergeant was afraid that Gu Qing was telling the truth and did not dare to take responsibility, so he had to

Reluctantly, he went in to report, and soon a police officer came out to invite him.

Gu Qing entered Taifu Temple in a hurry and did not bother to observe the environment of Taifu Temple. After the guards led Gu Qing to a wing on the east side of the backyard, Gu Qing barged in without even knocking on the door.

Yang Guozhong was sitting at the table writing, when he saw someone coming in without telling him, he couldn't help but became furious. When he saw that the person was Gu Qing, Yang Guozhong's expression suddenly turned from gloomy to clear.
