After the game emperor awakens
Chapter 22
Huayan was stunned.
It's not that he didn't think that his ability to mix perfume could make money.
In the past, in the building, male prostitutes always put some incense on their bodies to seduce customers, and some aphrodisiac incense was always prepared in the room.All the lessons they learn are about pleasing men, and perfumery is also a compulsory subject.
Huayan is the best student in this class in the building.He is very talented in making incense, and even the masters who teach praise him that he is better than blue.
Incense can seduce people, and it can also kill people.
Changli men are considered adults at the age of 16 before they can marry. There are even regulations in the building that young prostitutes under the age of 16 are not allowed to receive customers.Although Daddy's business is flesh and blood, he treats orphans like them very well.If you don't do that business, how can you grow flowers all over the building with so many mouths?
So my father asked Huayan to pick up customers when she was 16 years old, Huayan was not dissatisfied.He wasn't some innocent little white flower who wanted to cry, make trouble, and hang himself.
...he even killed people.
Huayan grew up in the building. She had a friend who was one year younger than him, called Huayu, who was only 13 years old at the time.
Huayu is the stupidest of all the young prostitutes in the building.He learns those ways to please people every day, but he can't learn everything well, and his temper is extremely simple.Huayan is the most thoughtful, but she likes the most careless one.
There are all kinds of guests, and there are always some special eccentricities.Among them was an official, surnamed Zhou, who was old and senile, but he preferred to play with immature flowers, not mature flowers.
The man surnamed Zhou went to the brothel to seek sex, and he didn't take a long look at the beautiful male prostitute who served him. Instead, his eyes fell on Huayan and Huayu who came to serve tea and water, especially staring at Huayu, his gaze was obscene.
When Huayan was 14 years old, she already had a gorgeous complexion, with the air of an adult.Huayu is still young and tender, ignorant, like a child.
Zhou, who was surnamed Zhou, wanted to be served by flower language on the spot, the kind of service that would open buds for this flower bone.
Hua Yu was so frightened that the tea was overturned, and she cried and said: "The slave is not yet sixteen, according to the rules in the building, he cannot receive guests."
The surnamed Zhou smiled lewdly: "Do you know that I am a doctor of the Ministry of Punishment and in charge of the law. Is it the rules in the building, or the rules of this officer?"
Huayu was too cowardly to speak, Huayan couldn't stand it, stood in front of Huayu, and said word by word: "Even according to the law of the country, anyone who is under sixteen is still an immature child, and the king's law stipulates that an immature child must not be defiled, and those who violate it will be punished immediately."
The folk customs of Changli are open, and the whole country is male, and there are not many taboos about respect and inferiority.
In Changli, those who are in the upper position in the bed are called "Xun Huan", and those who are in the lower position are called "Cheng Huan".
There are differences in body position, but status is equal.Ordinary people or well-matched families do not pay much attention to the distinction between marriage and marriage. Husband and wife are only distinguished verbally, and there is no such thing as who is subordinate to whom.Xunhuan can marry many Chenghuans, and Chenghuan can also marry many Xunhuans. Husbands are not necessarily gong, and wives are not necessarily shou. It is normal to attack each other behind closed doors.Husbands can take concubines, and if wives like other men, they can also take them into the family as concubines. Each favors his own, and neither party should have any objections.
The only difference is that if the married party is looking for pleasure, the dowry gift must be far more than the dowry given by the married party, otherwise, why should the child be born with your surname?It is never a matter of course to have a surname. It is a great concession and a priceless dowry.
If the married party is the one who will give birth to a child, then it's fine, and the bride price can be given casually.
Changli is very partial to men who need to suffer from childbirth.As men, men who took birth control pills had to suffer more than ordinary men, so that they could prosper in Changli.Gao Zu, who died of dystocia, enacted laws and gave great preference to men who chose to have children.
Only when the status of the two families is very different, the husband and wife will treat them differently.For example, the royal family will not allow the harem to raise concubines in a fair manner, which is detrimental to the royal face.There have always been emperors who belonged to Cheng Huan, and their own children were born by themselves, and concubines were not allowed to have children with others.The concubine is regarded as the royal family, and the royal blood cannot be confused.If Cheng Huan from a high-ranking noble family likes Xun Huan who is inferior to his own family, he will always marry Xun Huan back home, and he will not allow the other party to take concubines, but he can take in more side lords.If you choose to marry, it is called marrying down, and if you marry, you will still dominate the other party.
The next door's daughter, Guo Leyang, is also in this system.There is no gender inequality in these two countries, only class distinctions.
It is also because Changli has been opened up to this point, and husbands and wives can raise their own concubines in a fair manner. The request of "one couple for a lifetime" proposed by the prime minister's wife was so shocking.It doesn't matter if he comes from a wealthy family, but even though the prime minister's wife is also from a famous family, she is not too prominent in Beijing, which is full of honors. She was asked to marry by the first son of the Lu family of the first family, and she also accepted the promise of a couple in this life. Set off a stormy sea.
But even Changli, who is so open, still has an iron rule - not to marry a man under the age of 16, let alone have skin relatives.
It doesn't matter how adults play. Whoever touches a child is an animal. Once found out, it will be a capital offense.
But even if it is explicitly prohibited, there are always people who are not afraid of death.
Yujing is at the foot of the emperor, no one dares to commit crimes blatantly, but there is a secret love for child molestation, so a dark industrial chain of abducting and selling boys for others to play with is born.When Yunluo was sold as a child prostitute, she happened to be discovered by Xie Chongjin, a young man who left the palace in disguise.The prince was furious, immediately confiscated the house of the child molester, ordered a thorough investigation, destroyed an industrial chain, beheaded many people, and rescued Yun Luo's younger brother, making Yun Luo completely devoted to the savior.
After the prince thoroughly investigated the case, no one dared to do this kind of black-hearted business again for a while. Those who have pedophilia couldn't get "sources of goods", so they were naturally very itchy.
Zhou Langzhong is one of them.In the past, he would never have dared to reveal that he had such a habit—everything that was revealed would be decapitated by the crown prince.I really don't know if he, a prince, is in charge of the sky and the earth, and even cares about their trivial hobbies, is it because he is too busy to let them see the light.
But now that the prince ascended the throne and became the emperor, he became more and more stupid and careless, Zhou Langzhong's thoughts were ready to move again.
Hearing Hua Yan's words now that "defile a child and cut him to death", Zhou Langzhong shuddered, remembering the scene of blood flowing into rivers when the prince was handling the case, a psychological shadow emerged uncontrollably.After recovering from his senses, he became angry again, and immediately slapped the pretty face.
"A young prostitute, a low-ranking bitch, dare to talk about the law of the king with me?" Lang Zhou said sternly, "I am the law of the king! As long as I give you a crime, I will arrest you tomorrow and lose your head." It's you!"
This movement finally alarmed Bustard.The man in his thirties who still had a charm came over and said with a flattering smile: "My lord, what did these two children do to make you angry? The slave family will compensate you. The children are young and you have a lot of adults, so don't bother with them. "
At the same time, he gave the two children a wink, signaling them to leave quickly.
Zhou Langzhong arrogantly said: "Stop! How dare you leave? Boss Hua, I just asked him to serve, and this kid dares to bring out Wang Fa to suppress me. Is it unreasonable not to teach me a lesson? Of course, there are a lot of my lords, as long as you let him He waited on me all night—" His ambiguous eyes lingered on Huayu, and he glanced at Huayan with a sneer, "Don't let this kid go to prison."
Hua Yan is very loyal to her friend: "You know that you broke the law and abused public power, so you should go to jail!"
"Shut up! How are you talking?" Bustard immediately slapped him, it sounded loud, but the actual force was not heavy.
"My lord, this kid is talking nonsense, so I apologize to you." The bustard wondered, "It's just... Huayu is not old enough, if you want to find someone to serve you, if there is no one in this building that you like, the slave's house can also serve you." you……"
Huayu covered her mouth and cried.Daddy has washed his hands in gold for many years, but now he has to be ruined by this person because of him.
"You?" Zhou Langzhong sneered, "If you are 20 years younger, I might be able to fall in love with you. You dare to let me swallow such an old face. Are you humiliating me? Why don't you send him to me tonight? In the room, tomorrow you don’t need to bloom when the building is full of flowers.”
The words were already a clear warning: "It's just a matter of a word from the officer to send everyone in your building to the prison."
Bustard's face was livid, and he couldn't even keep smiling.People don't fight with officials, Huamanlou is just an ordinary brothel with no strong backing.At present, the king is in a daze, the etiquette is broken and the music is broken, and the dog officials are rampant. Even a fifth-rank doctor dares to do his best, and they can't afford to offend them.
The building is full of lonely and helpless poor people. Only when they get together can they have a place to live.He wanted to protect the people on the first floor, but now he couldn't protect a child.
"Daddy." Huayu said timidly, her tone was still ignorant, her expression was terrified and firm, "Let me serve you."
"I don't want you and the brothers in the building to go to prison..."
Bustard closed his eyes.
……
After that, Zhou Langzhong often came to Huayu to "serve".Every time after serving, there will be a terrifying scar on Huayu's body.
The flower language became more and more silent, and the pure and ignorant eyes lost their luster day by day.
Huayan applied the medicine for him, and when she saw the shocking scar on Huayu's body, her lowered eyes hid the coldness like a poisonous snake.
He wants to avenge Huayu, so that Huayu will never be tortured like this again.
He wanted to kill Zhou Langzhong.
But it can't be too obvious.If he killed people directly, the whole Huamanlou would be implicated.
Huayan began to study fragrances day and night. The purpose this time is no longer to study what kind of fragrance smells the best and pleases people the most.
He is studying what kind of incense can kill people.
He finally got something, and he made an incense that could harm people without anyone noticing it, and let Huayu light it in the room when Zhou Lang came, and it burned overnight.
This fragrance is harmless to the love of flowers, but it can make Xun Huan unknowingly insane and exhausted.
One day, Zhou Langzhong never came again.
It is said that he died in the mansion's stable, which is a disgraceful death. He regarded his own horse as a concubine, and died of "horse wind" in real terms.
No one knew it was Huayan's work.Even Huayu never thought that Zhou Langzhong's death would have something to do with the incense that Huayan asked him to light.
Huayan thought about making money by writing scripts after getting old and fading. He couldn't write scripts well, and he still had the ability to mix fragrances. He opened a rouge and gouache shop, so he could survive.
It's just that Changli is a man's country, so there is not much demand for rouge and gouache. If he was born in the other three countries, with a huge customer base of women, his ability to mix perfume can make him a lot of money.
In addition to making money from her body, Hua Yan also wants to rely on her own ability to make a living.
That would make him feel that his coming to this world has its own meaning.
It's a pity that let alone going abroad, it is even difficult for him to leave the palace now.
This is a femme fatale with a clear distinction between love and hate and deep scheming.He will not easily harm others, but he will not show mercy to those who want to harm him.If he hurt someone he cared about, he would definitely avenge him.
In many lifetimes, Huayan has made friends with many concubines because of her smooth and sophisticated personality, it seems that she is just playing on the occasion.
But when the concubine line player hurts any one, there is a high probability that Huayan will send him away, which saves Lu Xuechao a lot of trouble.
This is actually not in line with Huayan's code of conduct, but he still does it.
Because of this, Huayan was easily targeted and eliminated by players, and her death rate was second only to Lu Xuechao.
Sometimes Huayan will be planted by players to perform witchcraft, and the success rate of krypton gold props is 100%.As the lord of the harem, Lu Xuechao is investigating the case, and the murderer found must be Huayan.
Xie Chongjin tried his best, and all he could do to resist the system's settings was to show mercy to Lu Xuechao alone.
According to the system settings, Hua Yan will definitely be granted death.Although both Xie Chongjin and Lu Xuechao knew that the murderer was not him.
Before Huayan died, Lu Xuechao personally saw him off.On the surface, he was the one who wronged Huayan when investigating the case, regarded him as the real murderer, and caused him to die in vain.
After drinking the poisoned wine, Huayan smiled lightly and said, "I don't hate Your Highness the Queen. You probably... have no other choice."
It was no surprise that he realized this.The emperor told everyone that he liked the queen, but in action he only favored that murderous Lin Chanzhi, everyone would find it strange.
Everyone knows it's weird, but what's the use of that?They couldn't find a strange reason, so they could only be at the mercy of others, lamenting that fate made people.
"Hua Yan met you when she was 11 years old. You were the number one scholar in the red robe at that time. You rode a horse and walked through the long street. The sky was as bright as the moon. I looked at you in Huamanlou and felt that I was mud in the ground. If you want to rot in the soil, you won't be able to climb to such a bright moon." Huayan sighed softly, "I'm so envious."
I don't know if Lu Xuechao is the emperor's white moonlight, but it must be the beautiful white moonlight.
This has nothing to do with Fengyue.It's just a poor man who has been reduced to prostitution, involuntary, and unable to find the meaning of his life. He sincerely envies the people with lofty ideals who can make achievements in the country and family, have lofty aspirations, and are born free.
"Unexpectedly, you have become involuntary." Huayan slowly said, "Everyone here is involuntary. Your Majesty is like this, Tanhualang is like this, you are like this... I have always been like this."
"Tanhualang taught me to read the first word, it's called Yongmei. I think it's a compliment to you. I don't want to fight for the spring, and I'll be the envy of the others. Everything is turned into mud and dust, only the fragrance remains the same." Blood overflowed from the corner of Huayan's lips, "When you fall into the dust, you still have the same fragrance. It is a fragrance that I will never be able to make out. I was originally a pile of mud. Tanhualang taught me a lot of truths, so that I no longer despise myself. Now Tanhualang is also called That Lin Chanzhi killed me and planted it on me. I am not afraid of death, if I live, no one will teach me to read poetry anymore."
Lu Xuechao said, "I can teach you a line of poetry."
"Fallen flowers are not heartless things, into Chunni more quadrangle."
Huayan asked softly: "What does this mean?"
Before Lu Xuechao explained, Huayan closed her eyes and fell asleep, never waking up again.
"Can this ability of mine come in handy?" Huayan asked curiously.
Although his spices are good, the market in Changli is really not big.
"You can be of great use, fragrance is just one of them." Xie Chongjin said.
The spice industry in Changli is bleak, but it is popular in Qifeng Kingdom and Leyang Kingdom.Of course, the relationship between Changli and those two countries is not good now, and this trade route has not yet been opened-but don't they still have He Lianxi?
He Lianxi himself is also a good person, but he is a native of Qifeng, so it is really not easy to ask him to work for Changli.Lu Xuechao kept him as a mascot to ease relations between several countries.
Spice's financial resources will not develop until the relationship between several countries breaks the ice. It doesn't matter, Lu Xuechao still has a lot of trump cards in his hand, enough for him to receive the first pot of gold.
The recipes and elixirs researched by Lu Xuechao alone are a huge business opportunity.Only the item of "universal painkiller" means inexhaustible wealth.
How could he let the knowledge in his mind go to waste.
If a country wants to be prosperous and strong, scholars, farmers, businessmen and commerce cannot be left behind.It is true that the Wang family is the richest man, but what Lu Xuechao wants is not the Wang family's poverty relief, but half of the Wang family's profits, so as to prevent the family from becoming the dominant family.
To be as rich as an enemy, to control the economic lifeline of a country...is not a good thing for the country.
Before that, he had to make some achievements to reach the point of cooperating with the Wang family to talk.
"Do you want to take over Huamanlou? The royal family will be Huamanlou's backing, so you don't have to worry about being bullied." Lu Xue said, "Your father wanted to rest a long time ago. He couldn't let go of the people in the building all these years, so he has been sticking to it."
Huayan was stunned, and then joked: "What can I do for the court when I take over Huamanlou? Could it be that, as written in the storybook, the brothel is used as an intelligence organization to scoop up news? I told His Majesty this story before. , thought it was very powerful, but His Majesty said it was unrealistic, but anyone with a brain would not confide any important things to a prostitute. Those who have no brains will not be able to touch any important things..."
"I have the East Factory to investigate important matters, and I don't need to steal the work of royal agents." Lu Xuechao said, "The main reason is to make money."
Hua Yan: "..."
Huayan lowered her eyes: "...Your Highness, forgive me, I have no ambitions, and I don't want to take over the brothel."
Brothels make money from prostitution, and he is always unwilling to force people to do this kind of work himself.He himself was rescued from the dust, how could he be willing to send others into the dust.
"Who said it was a brothel?" Lu Xue said, "There are so many brothels in the world, it's not bad for Huamanlou's family, let's change our career."
Huayan was stunned: "If you don't want to be a brothel, what would you do?"
"You can take in a lot of orphans like you, teach them to read and write, learn a skill, and don't need to be a lowly citizen. You can get fame, get married and have children. On weekdays, you only work in the building as a helper, and you don't sell your body."
Huayan was even more confused: "...Do you do charity?"
And...they are all Qingwan, will anyone really come?
"No." Lu Xuechao thought for a moment, "It should be a restaurant, a medicine store, a gouache store, a silk and satin shop... All walks of life gather together. The Huamanlou in Yujing is only the first one, and there will be branch buildings all over the world in the future."
Hua Yan: "..." It's really not like doing charity, it's like dreaming.
Hua Yan told the truth: "I don't have that great ability, and I have dabbled in so many industries..."
"I have, just listen to me." Lu Xuechao's eyes were calm.
Huayan: "..." Your Royal Highness, the horror is so terrifying.
"In addition, although you don't expect to find out any important news, it's good to hear some gossip. The East Factory can inquire about news, but the East Factory has limited manpower. Do you know where the news is the most and where rumors are most likely to spread?"
Huayan hesitated, not knowing whether to answer or not.
Xie Chongjin answered: "Teahouse and wine shop, Qinlou Chuguan."
Hua Yan's expression was shocked.
He suddenly didn't dare to think about the meaning behind these words.
Such an important matter... can he also participate?
But it is undeniable that an unprecedented excitement rose in his heart, and he suddenly understood the enthusiasm of Fu Xinian and the four of them just now.
"I believe in your ability, so dude, are you willing to take over and become the landlord of Hua?" It was clearly the first time we met, and the queen dared to say such words to him.
Huayan was silent for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "Huayan took it."
Falling flowers seem to be useless, but if turned into spring mud to protect flowers, they can still create huge value.
This is the meaning that Huayan has pursued all her life.
Lu Xuechao wanted to exploit Huayan's business opportunities, but he didn't just want to take advantage of them.
He wants the fallen flowers in the spring mud to return to the branches and bloom real flowers all over the building.
It's not that he didn't think that his ability to mix perfume could make money.
In the past, in the building, male prostitutes always put some incense on their bodies to seduce customers, and some aphrodisiac incense was always prepared in the room.All the lessons they learn are about pleasing men, and perfumery is also a compulsory subject.
Huayan is the best student in this class in the building.He is very talented in making incense, and even the masters who teach praise him that he is better than blue.
Incense can seduce people, and it can also kill people.
Changli men are considered adults at the age of 16 before they can marry. There are even regulations in the building that young prostitutes under the age of 16 are not allowed to receive customers.Although Daddy's business is flesh and blood, he treats orphans like them very well.If you don't do that business, how can you grow flowers all over the building with so many mouths?
So my father asked Huayan to pick up customers when she was 16 years old, Huayan was not dissatisfied.He wasn't some innocent little white flower who wanted to cry, make trouble, and hang himself.
...he even killed people.
Huayan grew up in the building. She had a friend who was one year younger than him, called Huayu, who was only 13 years old at the time.
Huayu is the stupidest of all the young prostitutes in the building.He learns those ways to please people every day, but he can't learn everything well, and his temper is extremely simple.Huayan is the most thoughtful, but she likes the most careless one.
There are all kinds of guests, and there are always some special eccentricities.Among them was an official, surnamed Zhou, who was old and senile, but he preferred to play with immature flowers, not mature flowers.
The man surnamed Zhou went to the brothel to seek sex, and he didn't take a long look at the beautiful male prostitute who served him. Instead, his eyes fell on Huayan and Huayu who came to serve tea and water, especially staring at Huayu, his gaze was obscene.
When Huayan was 14 years old, she already had a gorgeous complexion, with the air of an adult.Huayu is still young and tender, ignorant, like a child.
Zhou, who was surnamed Zhou, wanted to be served by flower language on the spot, the kind of service that would open buds for this flower bone.
Hua Yu was so frightened that the tea was overturned, and she cried and said: "The slave is not yet sixteen, according to the rules in the building, he cannot receive guests."
The surnamed Zhou smiled lewdly: "Do you know that I am a doctor of the Ministry of Punishment and in charge of the law. Is it the rules in the building, or the rules of this officer?"
Huayu was too cowardly to speak, Huayan couldn't stand it, stood in front of Huayu, and said word by word: "Even according to the law of the country, anyone who is under sixteen is still an immature child, and the king's law stipulates that an immature child must not be defiled, and those who violate it will be punished immediately."
The folk customs of Changli are open, and the whole country is male, and there are not many taboos about respect and inferiority.
In Changli, those who are in the upper position in the bed are called "Xun Huan", and those who are in the lower position are called "Cheng Huan".

It is normal to attack each other behind closed doors.Husbands can take concubines, and if wives like other men, they can also take them into the family as concubines. Each favors his own, and neither party should have any objections.
The only difference is that if the married party is looking for pleasure, the dowry gift must be far more than the dowry given by the married party, otherwise, why should the child be born with your surname?It is never a matter of course to have a surname. It is a great concession and a priceless dowry.

Changli is very partial to men who need to suffer from childbirth.As men, men who took birth control pills had to suffer more than ordinary men, so that they could prosper in Changli.Gao Zu, who died of dystocia, enacted laws and gave great preference to men who chose to have children.

Huayu covered her mouth and cried.Daddy has washed his hands in gold for many years, but now he has to be ruined by this person because of him.
"You?" Zhou Langzhong sneered, "If you are 20 years younger, I might be able to fall in love with you. You dare to let me swallow such an old face. Are you humiliating me? Why don't you send him to me tonight? In the room, tomorrow you don’t need to bloom when the building is full of flowers.”
The words were already a clear warning: "It's just a matter of a word from the officer to send everyone in your building to the prison."
Bustard's face was livid, and he couldn't even keep smiling.People don't fight with officials, Huamanlou is just an ordinary brothel with no strong backing.At present, the king is in a daze, the etiquette is broken and the music is broken, and the dog officials are rampant. Even a fifth-rank doctor dares to do his best, and they can't afford to offend them.
The building is full of lonely and helpless poor people. Only when they get together can they have a place to live.He wanted to protect the people on the first floor, but now he couldn't protect a child.
"Daddy." Huayu said timidly, her tone was still ignorant, her expression was terrified and firm, "Let me serve you."
"I don't want you and the brothers in the building to go to prison..."
Bustard closed his eyes.

After that, Zhou Langzhong often came to Huayu to "serve".Every time after serving, there will be a terrifying scar on Huayu's body.
The flower language became more and more silent, and the pure and ignorant eyes lost their luster day by day.
Huayan applied the medicine for him, and when she saw the shocking scar on Huayu's body, her lowered eyes hid the coldness like a poisonous snake.
He wants to avenge Huayu, so that Huayu will never be tortured like this again.
He wanted to kill Zhou Langzhong.
But it can't be too obvious.If he killed people directly, the whole Huamanlou would be implicated.
Huayan began to study fragrances day and night. The purpose this time is no longer to study what kind of fragrance smells the best and pleases people the most.
He is studying what kind of incense can kill people.
He finally got something, and he made an incense that could harm people without anyone noticing it, and let Huayu light it in the room when Zhou Lang came, and it burned overnight.
This fragrance is harmless to the love of flowers, but it can make Xun Huan unknowingly insane and exhausted.
One day, Zhou Langzhong never came again.
It is said that he died in the mansion's stable, which is a disgraceful death. He regarded his own horse as a concubine, and died of "horse wind" in real terms.
No one knew it was Huayan's work.Even Huayu never thought that Zhou Langzhong's death would have something to do with the incense that Huayan asked him to light.
Huayan thought about making money by writing scripts after getting old and fading. He couldn't write scripts well, and he still had the ability to mix fragrances. He opened a rouge and gouache shop, so he could survive.
It's just that Changli is a man's country, so there is not much demand for rouge and gouache. If he was born in the other three countries, with a huge customer base of women, his ability to mix perfume can make him a lot of money.
In addition to making money from her body, Hua Yan also wants to rely on her own ability to make a living.
That would make him feel that his coming to this world has its own meaning.
It's a pity that let alone going abroad, it is even difficult for him to leave the palace now.
This is a femme fatale with a clear distinction between love and hate and deep scheming.He will not easily harm others, but he will not show mercy to those who want to harm him.If he hurt someone he cared about, he would definitely avenge him.
In many lifetimes, Huayan has made friends with many concubines because of her smooth and sophisticated personality, it seems that she is just playing on the occasion.
But when the concubine line player hurts any one, there is a high probability that Huayan will send him away, which saves Lu Xuechao a lot of trouble.
This is actually not in line with Huayan's code of conduct, but he still does it.
Because of this, Huayan was easily targeted and eliminated by players, and her death rate was second only to Lu Xuechao.
Sometimes Huayan will be planted by players to perform witchcraft, and the success rate of krypton gold props is 100%.As the lord of the harem, Lu Xuechao is investigating the case, and the murderer found must be Huayan.
Xie Chongjin tried his best, and all he could do to resist the system's settings was to show mercy to Lu Xuechao alone.
According to the system settings, Hua Yan will definitely be granted death.Although both Xie Chongjin and Lu Xuechao knew that the murderer was not him.
Before Huayan died, Lu Xuechao personally saw him off.On the surface, he was the one who wronged Huayan when investigating the case, regarded him as the real murderer, and caused him to die in vain.
After drinking the poisoned wine, Huayan smiled lightly and said, "I don't hate Your Highness the Queen. You probably... have no other choice."
It was no surprise that he realized this.The emperor told everyone that he liked the queen, but in action he only favored that murderous Lin Chanzhi, everyone would find it strange.
Everyone knows it's weird, but what's the use of that?They couldn't find a strange reason, so they could only be at the mercy of others, lamenting that fate made people.
"Hua Yan met you when she was 11 years old. You were the number one scholar in the red robe at that time. You rode a horse and walked through the long street. The sky was as bright as the moon. I looked at you in Huamanlou and felt that I was mud in the ground. If you want to rot in the soil, you won't be able to climb to such a bright moon." Huayan sighed softly, "I'm so envious."
I don't know if Lu Xuechao is the emperor's white moonlight, but it must be the beautiful white moonlight.
This has nothing to do with Fengyue.It's just a poor man who has been reduced to prostitution, involuntary, and unable to find the meaning of his life. He sincerely envies the people with lofty ideals who can make achievements in the country and family, have lofty aspirations, and are born free.
"Unexpectedly, you have become involuntary." Huayan slowly said, "Everyone here is involuntary. Your Majesty is like this, Tanhualang is like this, you are like this... I have always been like this."
"Tanhualang taught me to read the first word, it's called Yongmei. I think it's a compliment to you. I don't want to fight for the spring, and I'll be the envy of the others. Everything is turned into mud and dust, only the fragrance remains the same." Blood overflowed from the corner of Huayan's lips, "When you fall into the dust, you still have the same fragrance. It is a fragrance that I will never be able to make out. I was originally a pile of mud. Tanhualang taught me a lot of truths, so that I no longer despise myself. Now Tanhualang is also called That Lin Chanzhi killed me and planted it on me. I am not afraid of death, if I live, no one will teach me to read poetry anymore."
Lu Xuechao said, "I can teach you a line of poetry."
"Fallen flowers are not heartless things, into Chunni more quadrangle."
Huayan asked softly: "What does this mean?"
Before Lu Xuechao explained, Huayan closed her eyes and fell asleep, never waking up again.
"Can this ability of mine come in handy?" Huayan asked curiously.
Although his spices are good, the market in Changli is really not big.
"You can be of great use, fragrance is just one of them." Xie Chongjin said.
The spice industry in Changli is bleak, but it is popular in Qifeng Kingdom and Leyang Kingdom.Of course, the relationship between Changli and those two countries is not good now, and this trade route has not yet been opened-but don't they still have He Lianxi?
He Lianxi himself is also a good person, but he is a native of Qifeng, so it is really not easy to ask him to work for Changli.Lu Xuechao kept him as a mascot to ease relations between several countries.
Spice's financial resources will not develop until the relationship between several countries breaks the ice. It doesn't matter, Lu Xuechao still has a lot of trump cards in his hand, enough for him to receive the first pot of gold.
The recipes and elixirs researched by Lu Xuechao alone are a huge business opportunity.Only the item of "universal painkiller" means inexhaustible wealth.
How could he let the knowledge in his mind go to waste.
If a country wants to be prosperous and strong, scholars, farmers, businessmen and commerce cannot be left behind.It is true that the Wang family is the richest man, but what Lu Xuechao wants is not the Wang family's poverty relief, but half of the Wang family's profits, so as to prevent the family from becoming the dominant family.
To be as rich as an enemy, to control the economic lifeline of a country...is not a good thing for the country.
Before that, he had to make some achievements to reach the point of cooperating with the Wang family to talk.
"Do you want to take over Huamanlou? The royal family will be Huamanlou's backing, so you don't have to worry about being bullied." Lu Xue said, "Your father wanted to rest a long time ago. He couldn't let go of the people in the building all these years, so he has been sticking to it."
Huayan was stunned, and then joked: "What can I do for the court when I take over Huamanlou? Could it be that, as written in the storybook, the brothel is used as an intelligence organization to scoop up news? I told His Majesty this story before. , thought it was very powerful, but His Majesty said it was unrealistic, but anyone with a brain would not confide any important things to a prostitute. Those who have no brains will not be able to touch any important things..."
"I have the East Factory to investigate important matters, and I don't need to steal the work of royal agents." Lu Xuechao said, "The main reason is to make money."
Hua Yan: "..."
Huayan lowered her eyes: "...Your Highness, forgive me, I have no ambitions, and I don't want to take over the brothel."
Brothels make money from prostitution, and he is always unwilling to force people to do this kind of work himself.He himself was rescued from the dust, how could he be willing to send others into the dust.
"Who said it was a brothel?" Lu Xue said, "There are so many brothels in the world, it's not bad for Huamanlou's family, let's change our career."
Huayan was stunned: "If you don't want to be a brothel, what would you do?"
"You can take in a lot of orphans like you, teach them to read and write, learn a skill, and don't need to be a lowly citizen. You can get fame, get married and have children. On weekdays, you only work in the building as a helper, and you don't sell your body."
Huayan was even more confused: "...Do you do charity?"
And...they are all Qingwan, will anyone really come?
"No." Lu Xuechao thought for a moment, "It should be a restaurant, a medicine store, a gouache store, a silk and satin shop... All walks of life gather together. The Huamanlou in Yujing is only the first one, and there will be branch buildings all over the world in the future."
Hua Yan: "..." It's really not like doing charity, it's like dreaming.
Hua Yan told the truth: "I don't have that great ability, and I have dabbled in so many industries..."
"I have, just listen to me." Lu Xuechao's eyes were calm.
Huayan: "..." Your Royal Highness, the horror is so terrifying.
"In addition, although you don't expect to find out any important news, it's good to hear some gossip. The East Factory can inquire about news, but the East Factory has limited manpower. Do you know where the news is the most and where rumors are most likely to spread?"
Huayan hesitated, not knowing whether to answer or not.
Xie Chongjin answered: "Teahouse and wine shop, Qinlou Chuguan."
Hua Yan's expression was shocked.
He suddenly didn't dare to think about the meaning behind these words.
Such an important matter... can he also participate?
But it is undeniable that an unprecedented excitement rose in his heart, and he suddenly understood the enthusiasm of Fu Xinian and the four of them just now.
"I believe in your ability, so dude, are you willing to take over and become the landlord of Hua?" It was clearly the first time we met, and the queen dared to say such words to him.
Huayan was silent for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "Huayan took it."
Falling flowers seem to be useless, but if turned into spring mud to protect flowers, they can still create huge value.
This is the meaning that Huayan has pursued all her life.
Lu Xuechao wanted to exploit Huayan's business opportunities, but he didn't just want to take advantage of them.
He wants the fallen flowers in the spring mud to return to the branches and bloom real flowers all over the building.
