The woman's face was radiant with spring, her eyes sparkled with beauty, her fragrance was captivating, and her natural charm made her impossible to look away from.
Her voluptuous body was only covered by a thin veil, her fragrant shoulders were half-exposed, her neck was long and slender, and her bodice was covered by a layer of pink veil, revealing her cleavage. Every move she made was full of charm, making it impossible to look away.

Chapter 2: Su Lang's Power, Xu Lingyue Requests an Audience! [Seeking Flowers and Monthly Tickets]
The woman before them was the owner of Yingmei Pavilion, the courtesan Fuxiang.
Fu Xiang was skilled in both poetry and music, ranking first among the most beautiful courtesans in the Imperial Music Bureau!
In previous years, Fu Xiang, as the daughter of a disgraced official, fell into prostitution and entered the Jiaofangsi (a government-run entertainment institution).
When Fu Xiang first came to the Jiaofangsi, she was unknown. Su Nan made her famous with just one poem about plum blossoms, and she became the top courtesan in the Jiaofangsi.
Su Nan thus became Fu Xiang's most favored guest, and the most honored one at that.
Even without that poem about plum blossoms, Fu Xiang's beauty and talent would have made her famous in the capital sooner or later.
But Su Nan's poem saved her a lot of trouble.
From then on, Su Nan often came to Yingmei Pavilion to drink and enjoy himself.
Of course, it doesn't cost any money.
Fu Xiang established himself in the Kyoto music and dance academy based on that poem, and has not accepted any customers since.
The reason is of course very simple.
Whoever can compose a poem that surpasses those of southern Jiangsu will be qualified to become her intimate guest.
Countless talented scholars came, but upon seeing the poem written by Su Nan, they could only sigh in admiration and silently turn away.
Although there were no patrons, Yingmei Pavilion's business not only did not get worse, but it was also packed every night!
Many of them weren't there for the fragrance of the incense, but rather to catch a glimpse of Su Zhexian's charm.
As for why Su Nan is helping Fu Xiang promote her.
the reason is simple.
Fu Xiang is a special kind of drinker!
Su Nan learned the move "Sword Qi Rolling Dragon Wall" by drinking with her.
Secondly, Fu Xiang is indeed very beautiful, and her appearance is unparalleled among the courtesans of Kyoto.
"You haven't come for quite some time now, I've missed you terribly."
Fu Xiang didn't stand on ceremony with Su Nan at all, wrapping her snow-white arms around his neck and throwing herself into his arms.
She rested her head on the latter's chest, his warm breath like the fragrance of orchids, filtering through Su Nan's window.
Su Nan looked at Fu Xiang, who was nestled in his arms like a little bird, and smiled calmly.
He knew Fu Xiang's true identity.
Fu Xiang is actually a spy from the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdoms, named Ye Ji, and her true form is one of the divided souls of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox!
However, this did not prevent him from having in-depth conversations with Fu Xiang.
In short, just pretend you don't know.
"Let's see tonight how much you really want it."
Su Nan laughed loudly and picked up Fu Xiang with both hands.
To accommodate guests from southern Jiangsu, Yingmei Pavilion did not receive any other guests tonight.
This is not entirely because Su Nan is a distinguished guest.
Another reason is...
Every time Su Nan comes to Yingmei Pavilion, there's a lot of noise at night.
Even Fu Xiang would find it very puzzling.
Su Lang was clearly just a scholar.
Although he possessed some talent, he did not delve into the Confucian system of self-cultivation.
He was not a crude and vulgar brute.
But why was his strength... so great?
She almost couldn't handle it.
Especially during that crucial, dramatic period, Fu Xiang was afraid that her body would fall apart.
However, when the time came, Fu Xiang wasn't afraid.
I just feel nostalgic.
The courtesans of the Jiaofangsi (a government-run entertainment institution) invited Su Nan to be their guest, not entirely because of his talent.
A large majority of them had thoughts like Fu Xiang's.
After waiting anxiously for many days, Su Lang finally arrived.
No matter what happens tonight, we can't let Su Lang laugh at us again.
Just as Su Nan was about to carry Fu Xiang upstairs to the second floor.
The maid from the attic hurried over.
"Someone outside is requesting an audience with Su Zhexian."
Upon hearing this, Fu Xiang's expression immediately turned somewhat displeased.
She had finally gotten the chance to be intimate with Su Lang, and this maid had to come and disturb her. She really had no sense of propriety at all.
"Didn't I say? Tonight, I won't see anyone." Fu Xiang frowned slightly and said in a low voice.
The maid looked up at Su Nan, and after mustering her courage, she spoke: "It's a woman who calls herself Xu Lingyue."
"She said she was a friend of Su Zhexian and had urgent business to discuss!"
Upon hearing this, Su Nan raised an eyebrow: "Lingyue?"
Xu Lingyue, the eldest sister of the Xu family, is Xu Qi'an's cousin.
Xu Lingyue usually loves to read books about romance between men and women.
When Su Nan was short of money in his early years, he wrote some melodramatic and vulgar stories to earn money for drinks. That's how the two met. Their relationship wasn't particularly good, but it was decent enough.
Su Nan immediately guessed Xu Lingyue's purpose in coming.
It is now the thirty-sixth year of the Yuanjing era, precisely the time when the tax silver case broke out!
From this year onward, the surging undercurrents in the Great Feng world will transform into an unstoppable force that will sweep over all living beings!
Fortunately, since 8521, I have already possessed some ability to protect myself!
Xu Lingyue rushed to the Jiaofangsi to find him, most likely because of the tax silver case.
Seeing Su Nan's affectionate address, Fu Xiang's face immediately showed a hint of jealousy, and she said softly, "So you've come to see Su Lang."
Su Nan put down the incense and said with a faint smile, "He is indeed my friend."
“She came to the brothel to see me, she must have something urgent to tell me.”
Fu Xiang felt a little disappointed. She had been tossing and turning for sleepless nights, and had finally waited for Su Nan...
But Fu Xiang was a perceptive woman and wouldn't throw a tantrum at a time like this.
"Xiao Mei, quickly invite Miss Xu inside."
Fu Xiang's red lips brushed against Su Nan's cheek, leaving a trail of fragrance.
"A guest has arrived, so I'll go change my clothes."
Say it.
Fu Xiang then turned and went upstairs to change into a slightly more presentable outfit.
Not long after, Xiaomei brought Xu Lingyue in.
Although Xu Lingyue is only eighteen years old, she is already an outstanding beauty with very three-dimensional features, exquisite and beautiful, with a kind of sculpted beauty.
However, at this moment, Xu Lingyue's face and eyes were filled with anxiety.
She seemed genuinely panicked.
"Brother Su!"
When Xu Lingyue saw Su Nan's figure, her eyes were already filled with tears!
"Brother Su, please, save the Xu family!"
Xu Lingyue came to Su Nan and knelt down without saying a word.
Seeing this, Xiaomei, who was standing nearby, wisely walked away.
Su Nan had no choice but to help Xu Lingyue up and said, "Don't panic, tell me what happened slowly."
In Su Nan's impression, Xu Lingyue was usually a very gentle and quiet girl.
He seems so anxious now, he must be really panicked.
After being helped to sit down by Su Nan, Xu Lingyue tried her best to control her sobs and recounted the whole story.
Just as Su Nan had predicted, Xu Lingyue came because of the tax and silver case!
Xu Lingyue's father, Xu Pingzhi, worked for the Imperial Guard and was responsible for escorting 150,000 taels of tax silver to the capital a day earlier.
However, while crossing the bridge, a sudden gust of wind arose, startling the horses and causing the silver to spill into the water, resulting in explosions and towering waves.
The 150,000 taels of silver that fell into the water vanished without a trace!
The loss of 150,000 taels of tax silver caused an uproar throughout the court, and Emperor Yuanjing was furious.
Xu Pingzhi was convicted and imprisoned, and was beheaded at Caishikou five days later!
The other male members of the Xu family were to be sent to the frontier as soldiers, while the women were implicated, relegated to the lowest social class, and sent to the brothel!
After learning of this, the Xu family spent all their wealth trying to find a way to get things done, but they were met with setbacks everywhere.
At times like these, everyone is trying to protect themselves; who would dare to risk getting burned?
