As soon as you enter the Xunfang Pavilion, you will see many elegant seats in the middle, facing a two-story building with red curtains on the upper floor and elegant rooms on the second floor.

Jiang Yutong and another person followed a woman and walked inside along the fence. Shi Donglian was probably too nervous and almost tripped over the stairs.

Jiang Yutong pulled her and only let go after she stood firmly.

The woman leading the way looked young. She glanced at the two of them curiously, then said nothing and walked forward with her head down.

After walking through the corridor, I saw a woman in red sitting lazily at the table. She yawned and pointed across the table, "Sit down."

Jiang Yutong was not polite and pulled Shi Donglian to sit down.

The woman in red should be the Aunt Hong that the strong man mentioned. She is not very old, at most in her thirties, but she is good-looking and still has charm.

Aunt Hong didn't expect that the woman who came here would have such a bold look. She soon met Jiang Yutong's gaze, and Jiang Yutong smiled politely.

Aunt Hong didn't see any disdain or contempt in Jiang Yutong's eyes, she was just a little curious and couldn't help but sigh in her heart that this was really a different feeling.

"Is the silver ready?"

Shi Donglian nodded and took out the silver note she had prepared in advance, "This is the two hundred taels of silver note you agreed on in advance."

Jiang Yutong was shocked when she first learned about the ransom. Two hundred taels was no small sum. Most people couldn't earn that much money in their lifetime. She asked Shi Donglian, "How much silver did you sell it for?"

Shi Donglian pointed with her fingers.

Jiang Yutong exclaimed, "Twenty taels? This deal has increased tenfold."

Shi Donglian smiled bitterly and said, "This price was only negotiated through connections. Once you enter this brothel, it's difficult to get out, except for death."

Indeed, with such a high ransom, how many parents are willing to spend the money? Generally, those who go to this brothel are poor people, sold there by their parents or abducted by human traffickers.

Those who are good-looking are trained to entertain guests, while those who are not so good-looking are used to do some cleaning and serving work.

Aunt Hong took the banknote, glanced at it, and said to the back, "Bring the person up."

Soon, Nini was brought up. Perhaps frightened by the incident, she looked a little dull. She looked at Shi Donglian and only whispered, "Mom."

Shi Donglian's tears soon fell. She stood up and went to hold Nini's hand. Nini subconsciously took a step back.

Shi Donglian's heart was broken when she saw this, "Nini, it's me."

Nini seemed to come to her senses and threw herself into Shi Donglian's arms and cried loudly.

Jiang Yutong felt uncomfortable watching this scene. He looked up and saw several women standing on the railing above. Jealousy flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled self-deprecatingly.

Aunt Hong saw that many people were watching the excitement and cursed loudly, "What are you looking at? What does it have to do with you? Stay still. Do you have such a good life? Can your mother come up with two hundred taels of silver to redeem you?"

Hearing this, the group of women turned around and went back to their rooms.

Aunt Hong looked at the mother and daughter who were still crying and holding their heads, and waved her hand, "Let's go quickly, don't let me regret it."

Shi Donglian wiped away her tears and thanked Aunt Hong, "Thank you for being so generous and giving Nini a chance to live."

Aunt Hong waved her hand and went upstairs with a twist of her waist.

Jiang Yutong took the two of them out of Xunfang Pavilion and got on the carriage. He took a last look at this den of brothel and saw that it was full of miserable people.

Without wasting a moment, they immediately returned to Yinbai County. On the way, they ate some bread when they were hungry and drank some water when they were thirsty. Jiang Yutong drove the horse and listened to the soft voices of the mother and daughter inside.

After much difficulty, they returned to Yinbai County before dark and sent Shi Donglian and her daughter back to their residence. Jiang Yutong also returned to Jingshui Tower.

......

Jiang Yuwen woke up, took a shower, and came to Xiao Yifeng's door again, "Boss, can I go home now?"

There was no sound from inside. After a while, Xiao Yifeng, dressed as an ordinary person, came out and said, "Come on, I'll go with you."

Jiang Yuwen said tactfully, "Your Majesty, it's not appropriate for you to go back with me, right?"

Xiao Yifeng reminded, "Call me boss."

"Boss, isn't it inappropriate for you to follow me back?"

"What's inappropriate? Your sister is my savior. I have to pay her a visit."

Xiao Yifeng thought for a moment and said, "When we get there, don't let anything slip. Just say we are sworn brothers from the same military camp, and I am your elder brother. Do you understand?"

Jiang Yuwen quickly waved his hands and said, "That's unacceptable. How dare I call you, Wang... your brother?"

"You must do as I say. Don't forget our current mission. If you dare to reveal my identity, you will be punished according to military law."

Jiang Yuwen nodded, "I understand, Boss."

"Let's go."

Xiao Yifeng was the first to walk out of the yard. Shi Zhiwen wanted to follow him, but Xiao Yifeng waved at him, "You stay."

Shi Zhiwen said, "Boss, it's not safe for you to be alone."

Xiao Yifeng pointed at Jiang Yuwen and said, "Isn't there someone else here?"

Jiang Yuwen pointed at himself, "Me?"

Shi Zhiwen glanced at Jiang Yuwen and said, "Jiang Yuwen, you must protect Boss Wang..."

Jiang Yuwen suddenly felt a great sense of responsibility.

Xiao Yifeng mounted his horse and ran out first, with Jiang Yuwen following quickly.

One after the other, they rushed towards Shangyuan Village.

On the street, Jiang Yuwen quickly caught up with Xiao Yifeng, "Boss, I want to buy something for my sister."

Xiao Yifeng glanced at Jiang Yuwen and reined in his horse, "Let's go."

The two men walked along the street, leading the horses.

Jiang Yuwen scratched his head. "Boss, you are very knowledgeable. What do you think we should give to this girl?"

Xiao Yifeng looked Jiang Yuwen up and down. He was indeed a rough man, but Xiao Yifeng rarely gave gifts to young girls. However, thinking about what his sister usually ate and used, he thought it should be similar. "Give her some rouge, powder, head ornaments and jewelry."

After saying this, she remembered that she had been in Shangyuan Village for so long and had never seen Jiang Yutong use these things. However, every time she gave her silver notes, she smiled from ear to ear.

I was just about to change my mind and say why not just give me the silver directly.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yuwen said, "I think what you said makes sense, Boss. Let's go. I see a rouge and powder shop up ahead."

After saying that, he walked towards the shop first.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yifeng had no choice but to follow.

When they arrived at the shop, there were many girls inside. Seeing so many girls, Jiang Yuwen suddenly became hesitant.

Xiao Yifeng still couldn't bear it and walked towards the waiter first.

The girls in the store blushed when they saw two handsome men walk in, and started whispering to each other while covering their faces with handkerchiefs.

"I don't know which family this young man is from, but he's quite handsome."

"He must be from outside. Everyone in Yinbai County must have known about this handsome man a long time ago."

"I guess so, especially the one in front. He looks so majestic, maybe he comes from a big family."

The waiter came up quickly and asked, "Sir, what would you like to buy?"

Xiao Yifeng stopped and winked at Jiang Yuwen, who blushed and said, "Buy something for the little girl."
