The girl who greeted them was frightened. Fortunately, the girl had seen the world, so she quickly said: "Of course it's Miss White Peony and Miss Red Peony. Please invite the prince to come with the slave family."
The girl leading the way led Li Cangjue upstairs gracefully.
Li Cangjue was disgusted by the smell of rouge in the air, and couldn't help but think of the faint fragrance emanating from Gu Qingying's body.
The smell is somewhat similar to the scent of jasmine, not strong, but very pleasant.
The smell of rouge in the air became stronger and stronger, and I frowned, thinking that I had heard people say how good the Peony Building was before, but now it seemed like nothing more than that.
White Peony and Red Peony are the courtesans of Peony House, so not everyone can see them.
However, there are exceptions to everything.
For example, when Li Cangjueyi appeared on the third floor, White Mudan and Red Mudan were obviously a little excited.
It is said that beauties love heroes, and White Peony and Red Peony have admired Li Cangjue for a long time.
Bai Mudan, in particular, has always regarded herself as aloof, thinking that only Li Cangjue is the only man in the world who is worthy of her.
However, Li Cangjue has always kept a clean mind since he returned to the imperial city and has never been to the Peony Tower.
This disappointed her for a long time, and occasionally she would wonder if the reputation of Peony House was not big enough, so it did not attract Li Cangjue's attention.
Now suddenly seeing Li Cangjue's figure, Bai Mudan came forward excitedly.
However, Red Peony hesitated and moved much slower than White Peony.
Men are all the same. In Red Peony's heart, there is no need to be too enthusiastic when treating men, because the more enthusiastic you are, the less interesting it is for men. Only by keeping a distance that is not too far or too close can you arouse a man's interest.
Naturally, she also admires Li Cangjue, but she is not as crazy as Bai Mudan.
Bai Mudan had already walked up to Li Cangjue. After bowing respectfully, her eyes were filled with admiration and she said in an extremely gentle tone: "Your Majesty, please come in."
On the third floor of the Peony Building, there are only two courtesans, White Peony and Red Peony, and the rooms are much larger than those downstairs.
For example, this reception room is extremely transparent.
After the old Madam Yunniang heard the news of Li Cangjue's arrival, she hurried over. As soon as she entered the house, she saw Li Cangjue being led to sit down by Bai Mudan.
With a bright smile, he stepped forward and saluted and said, "Your Majesty is a rare visitor to Peony House!"
Li Cangjue said calmly: "It's the first time I'm here today. I heard that the oiran from the Peony House is a great beauty. Today I saw that she is indeed beautiful."
He doesn't care too much about the looks of White Peony and Red Peony. No matter how stunning they look, they are just pink skulls!
But it was the ungrateful woman in his house that he never got tired of watching.
Why do you think of that damn woman again? After Li Cang cursed himself secretly with determination, he raised his head and looked at Yun Niang and said, "What talents do these two courtesans have? I am depressed and want to relieve my mood."
Shunzi waited on the side respectfully, lowering his head and not daring to speak.
Yun Niang smiled and said: "I don't dare to brag about anything else, but the two girls Peony are proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and girl Bai Mudan is even better at dancing."
Li Cangjue glanced at White Peony and Red Peony. He couldn't tell who was who anyway and said: "Then let's perform for me."
After giving a slight bow, Bai Mudan went into another room, changed into a set of extremely thin clothes, and walked out.
Under the light-colored gauze, you can faintly see the red pocket inside, and that tall and towering part would make your mouth water if it were replaced by another man.
But Li Cangjue only frowned slightly, and then withdrew his gaze.
He thought to himself that this white peony was too boastful on the outside, and he didn't notice it at all.
At least a pure and innocent girl would not dress like this to please men.
Hong Mudan sat behind the guzheng in a tacit understanding and started playing.
As the music sounded, Bai Mudan began to dance gracefully with long sleeves, and Li Cangjue watched calmly.
Yun Niang was worried. Could it be that Bai Mudan was not in line with the prince's wishes?
You must know that she has read countless people, and she can tell what Li Cangjue is thinking in his determination at just one glance. Now, she did not see any amazing and loving expression on Li Cangjue's face.
After seeing it, I felt indifferent, and even a little bit... uninterested?
You must know that she had trained and taught White Peony and Red Peony, and they had always been the thing she was most proud of. However, they were defeated by Li Cangjue.
After playing the song, Bai Mudan also finished dancing.
Bai Mudan was in a very good mood. She could finally show her best side in front of Li Cangjue, but when she turned around, she saw Li Cangjue still sitting there calmly drinking tea.
Not even excited at all!
Yun Niang stepped forward anxiously and said, "Is the prince dissatisfied with the two girls?"
Li Cangjue suddenly felt very sleepy, stood up and said, "Is there a room where I can sleep?"
He didn't want to go back to the palace today.
Yun Niang said quickly: "I will take the prince to the next room."
White Peony and Red Peony were very happy, thinking that Li Cangjue had taken a liking to them.
They are prostitutes, not their bodies, but this is only true for certain people...
If Li Cangjue asked them to sacrifice themselves, they would be very willing.
Shunzi just glanced at Li Cangjue in surprise, and soon followed Li Cangjue into the bedroom nearby.
Li Cangjue stood at the door, and Yun Niang, Bai Mudan and Red Mudan were not allowed to enter the house.
Yun Niang smiled and said: "My lord, please rest assured, the two peony girls are still perfect..."
Li Cangjue frowned: "Why are you telling me this? Don't disturb my rest."
After saying that, he closed the door directly. Shunzi stood at the door and said, "You two girls should go down and have a rest."
Even the well-informed Yun Niang never expected this scene.
When I came to Peony House and met two beautiful girls, White Peony and Red Peony, I was actually unmoved.
The key, she made it obvious, was that the two girls were willing to sacrifice themselves.
But Li Cangjue actually refused...
Refused!
If this spreads out, she, Peony House, will lose face!
But she didn't have the guts to ask Li Cangjue, so she could only swallow, stuffed a silver coin into Shunzi's hand, and whispered: "Brother, can I ask you a few questions?"
The money that was delivered to your door was not free. Shunzi took the money and smiled and said, "Ask."
Yun Niang said: "Why did the prince treat the two girls..."
She looked back at Red Peony and White Peony, but saw that both of them looked sad, and she couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
Shunzi put the silver into his arms and said, "Maybe the prince doesn't like these two girls."
Yun Niang blurted out: "How is it possible that there are still men in this world who don't like the two Peony girls?"
You have to have good looks, good figure, and gentleness. What's missing?
Shunzi glanced at the closed door and said, "Don't say anything nonsense. Your Majesty is just trying to keep himself clean. How can you be like other men?"
He knew what Yun Niang was thinking, and after all, he also understood what the prince meant.
