The Deepest Affection in Qin's Time

A group of super Confucian scholars are chasing, while Cao Yuan is running.

As evening fell, the city of Linzi suddenly became bustling with activity.

After a short while, Jingni grew impatient and, carrying Cao Yuan and Xiao Mengjiang, disappeared into the dark night with Li Wu.

Why are you running?

Li Wu held the little black cat in one arm and tapped Cao Yuan's forehead with her flute in the other.

Cao Yuan rolled his eyes at Li Wu, "Are you going to wait for someone to stay overnight if you don't run away?"

Those were dozens of top-tier Confucian scholars, not just a few!

Besides, neither Fu Nian nor Old Man Xun are inside, so he can't do anything there except waste time.

Just as Cao Yuan and Li Wu were bickering, two young people dressed in plain clothes passed by.

"Junior brother, it's getting late. Why don't we wait until our teacher arrives tomorrow and then go to visit Mr. Cao Yuan together?"

"I'll listen to my senior brother."

"Since we're listening to our senior brother, and we have nothing else to do today, how about we go to a brothel to listen to some music?"

"...No, senior brother, I'm not interested in listening to music."

"Then, junior brother, could you keep watch for your senior brother?"

"Senior brother, are you worried that the teacher arrived in Linzi ahead of schedule? Last time in Sanghai..."

"Hehe, not at all, it's better to be prepared. Same as always, one gold coin this time, how about it?"

"no problem."

Li Si readily agreed, for he was not a second-generation prince like Han Fei; he still needed to accumulate the funds to seek official employment abroad.

Han Fei smiled slightly, "Junior brother, please."

He sent Li Si to keep watch, but more importantly, he wanted to help his poor junior brother.

Of course, avoiding getting caught by the teacher is also very important~

Li Si: "Senior brother, please."

"How about we invite both of you?"

Cao Yuan, who had been eavesdropping, couldn't help but peek out.

He could tell from the sight and sound that it was Han Fei, the old philanderer, and Li Si, the gossip.

No wonder Li Si was able to stop Lü Buwei from coming out of Zhao Ji's place in the anime; he was a seasoned lookout trained by Han Fei.

Of course, that's not important.

The important thing is that these two guys went to a brothel without even bringing their brothers along.

He's been in Linzi for so long, but he hasn't even had a chance to explore it yet.

Li Si looked at Cao Yuan with suspicion, "And who are you, sir?"

Cao Yuan smiled and said, "My name is Cao Yuan, the owner of 'Golden Key' Locksmith Shop."

“Cao Yuan…” Han Fei clicked his tongue and looked Cao Yuan up and down. “Why does that name sound so familiar?”

Li Si wasn't as good at being funny as Han Fei.

"So it's Mr. Cao Yuan. I've long admired your name. I am Li Si, and this is my senior brother, Han Fei."

Han Fei chuckled and asked, "Brother Cao, are you also going to the Drunken Dream Pavilion?"

Cao Yuan laughed and said, "I have long yearned to visit this Drunken Dream Pavilion. It is a wonderful thing to meet you two gentlemen today. Why don't we go together?"

As one of the three sacred sites of Qin Dynasty, Zuimenglou has never been visited before, so this is a rare opportunity.

Han Fei suddenly realized, "So Brother Cao is also a kindred spirit."

But when he saw the women behind Cao Yuan, he asked with some surprise, "Who are these ladies?"

Cao Yuan solemnly introduced Jing Ni Li Wu and Xiao Meng Jiang. "This is my wife, this is my concubine, and this is my sister."

Han Fei suddenly stuck out his thumb.

"Brother Cao, you're amazing!"

Li Si thought to himself, "How could he not be amazing? He can openly bring his wife, concubines, and even his sister to patronize prostitutes... He's even more absurd and unreliable than my senior brother."

Jing Ni glanced coldly at Cao Yuan and said indifferently, "Let's go."

Li Wu pulled the somewhat speechless and reluctant Xiao Mengjiang away, gave Cao Yuan a look that said "good luck to you," and left with light steps.

She knew perfectly well that Lord Jingni couldn't possibly leave, so there was only one possibility: she had followed Cao Yuan to a brothel.

Han Fei said with a regretful expression, "I thought I would live to see a man taking a woman to a brothel."

Cao Yuan chuckled and said, "This is nothing. Brother Han might even be able to go to a brothel to find men one day."

Han Fei felt a chill run down his spine. "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Seemingly in an attempt to save face, Han Fei teased Cao Yuan.

"Brother Cao, it seems that your wife and concubine are still virgins."

As a seasoned patron who frequented brothels, Han Fei had a keen eye for women.

Cao Yuan's wife and concubines had furrowed brows, straight waists, slender necks, and upright backs, clearly showing signs of virginity.

Is this implying that I'm not good enough...? Cao Yuan chuckled.

"They are respectable, traditional, and virtuous women from good families, and they are saving their wedding candles for me on our wedding night before we have formally married and entered the bridal chamber."

"Oh, so it's your fiancée~"

Han Fei looked incredulous.

Cao Yuan raised an eyebrow and said with a faint smile, "Speaking of which, Brother Han looks like a man who frequents brothels, so how come he's still a virgin? Could it be that..."

Han Fei immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

"Ahem! Ahem! Brother Cao, don't wait any longer, please come in, Han Fei is treating us tonight!"

Cao Yuan didn't stand on ceremony and stepped forward first, looking extremely smug.

The claim that Han Fei was a virgin wasn't made up; it was a guess based on the original text, used to trick Han Fei. Unexpectedly, Han Fei was indeed a virgin.

Han Fei looked at Cao Yuan's smug back and was speechless, wondering to himself how Cao Yuan knew he was a virgin.

Can men tell too?

That's too weird!

"Junior brother, do not spread what happened today."

Han Fei narrowed his eyes and stared at Li Si.

Li Si's expression was very complex. He looked away from the steady gaze, as if he had heard a lot of things he shouldn't have heard tonight.

"...What is Senior Brother saying?"

"Three gold coins!"

"make a deal!"

Chapter 20 Three Virgins Break into a Brothel

Zui Meng Lou, jokingly referred to by netizens as one of the three sacred sites of Qin Dynasty.

On the surface, it is a dance hall and a decadent den of debauchery, but in reality, it is one of the strongholds of the Shennong Hall of the Farmer, used for intelligence gathering and reconnaissance. It also contains multiple secret passages for hiding and timely evacuation.

Cao Yuan stood in front of the Drunken Dream Pavilion, looking at the luxurious building before him, and various pieces of information about the Drunken Dream Pavilion floated into his mind.

"Brother Cao, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and move on!"

Han Fei, ever the friendly type, put his arm around Cao Yuan's shoulder and chuckled, "Could it be that Brother Cao is also..."

Cao Yuan kept a straight face and snorted, "I can walk through a sea of ​​flowers without a single petal clinging to me."

Han Fei clicked his tongue and said, "You speak so elegantly and refinedly, but you're just like me."

Cao Yuan blushed and wanted to leave in a huff.

But then I heard the laughter of beautiful women inside the pavilion, and saw the smiling faces, exquisite figures, and snow-white skin of the graceful girls at the entrance.

He retorted confidently, "So what? How can they be the same? I'm pure and innocent!"

After saying that, Cao Yuan brushed aside Han Fei's arm around his shoulder and strode towards Zuimenglou.

Cao Yuan paused after taking only a few steps.

He suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a lot of gunpowder buried under the Drunken Dream Tower, and the scene of the Drunken Dream Tower being destroyed by gunpowder flashed through his mind.

But Cao Yuan immediately continued walking.

It is obvious that the Zuimenglou in Linzi City is not the same as the Zuimenglou near Dazeshan later.

Either it's because they share the same name, or because the State of Qi hadn't yet fallen and the farmers hadn't moved their stronghold away.

In short, regardless of the reason, he shouldn't have ascended to heaven along with Zuimenglou.

However, there was explosives in the Qin Dynasty...

Cao Yuan found it somewhat amusing; they had mechanical Gundams, so what was explosives compared to that?

On both sides of the main gate of Zuimenglou, pink and red flowering trees were in bloom. The fragrant scent of the flowers, along with the perfume of the young ladies, wafted into Cao Yuan's nose.

"That's... absolutely wonderful!"

The spacious hall of Zuimenglou was resplendent with gold and jade, and dancers danced gracefully to the music of musicians.

All around were tables and chairs, filled with men dressed in fine clothes, some young, some old and gray. Beautifully made-up prostitutes sat or lay in their laps, and whenever they picked up a wine cup, their beautiful faces were always adorned with a delicate smile.

Regardless of age, everyone looked completely absorbed and enjoying themselves.

As Cao Yuan walked into the main hall of Zuimenglou, he saw a room full of rosy-cheeked guests, snow-white girls walking around chatting and laughing, and listened to the seductive music played by the zither players. He almost groaned out loud.

This is a paradise for men to release their hormones!

"Oh? Brother Cao, is this your first time in a place like this?"
