Chapter 392: Selling Art, Not Selling Your Body
Su Yun said angrily: "You still know that she is my mother and the owner of Xiehualou, not a girl who receives customers."
Peng Liang said disdainfully.
"So what? Since Miss Gu loves to be pretty and the brothel owner loves money, I, Peng, will just give her more money."
Su Yun couldn't argue with him, so he had to shout at others.
"These two are the top performers at Xiehualou. They sell their art but not their bodies. General Shen, could you please give Su some face?"
Xuan Hewu had already held Fan Rou in his arms and scolded her in dissatisfaction.
"They invited us here, and now they're saying they won't sell this or that. Then why are we here?"
Su Yun couldn't stand up straight in front of them.
"My dear generals, there are many beautiful girls in Xiehua Tower, you can enjoy them to your heart's content. However, I hope these three will preserve their virginity. Su Yun thanks you again."
As he spoke, he clasped his hands together and bowed.
Before Xuan Hewu could argue, Shen Zhongying threw the wine glass in his hand to the ground.
"Leave, spoil the fun."
He staggered to his feet and walked out.
Although he drank a lot of wine, he was very clear in his mind.
Now is not the time to turn against the governor Su Qian. After all, his boss Miao Changfeng is still working under King Fu, and the Black Scarf Society still has to rely on King Fu's power to spread throughout the entire sect.
We can't let the boss's plan be ruined just because of a few women.
Seeing that the boss had left, the men had no choice but to give up.
Peng Liang let go, Ya Ru grabbed the clothes on the ground, and ran towards the back door of the house with her head down.
Pang Lian pointed at her snow-white body and laughed.
Su Yun had a dark face. He sat down at a low table and poured wine into his mouth from the wine jug.
Several maids were so scared that they retreated, leaving only Liu Shuxue holding Fan Rou and comforting her softly.
Su Yun was silent for a long while: "How can these beasts be so presumptuous? If I provoke them, I will go find Lin Feng..."
Liu Shuxue said coldly: "If I knew they were beasts, I should have gone a long time ago."
Su Yun looked up at Liu Shuxue and asked, "Do you think so too?"
"Mr. Su, you also know how well the Qingshui area in Linfeng is doing. Look at our city, it's a mess and the people are living in poverty. As the governor, who can your father be worthy of?"
Su Yun had a gloomy face and was speechless for a moment.
He also understood that ever since his father joined King Fu and brought in these Black Turban Army, the city had fallen into disaster.
However, Lin Feng has already fallen out with his father, so how could he help him?
Even if I go to find Lin Feng, the result will be seeking the skin of a tiger.
In the evening, Chu Jiao's father Chu Shijie returned home.
When he heard that Chu Jiao had returned home, he immediately went to the back hall and asked someone to call Chu Jiao over. He looked his disobedient daughter up and down.
Chu Jiao became darker and thinner.
However, judging from his expression, he looked much more energetic.
Chu Shijie was a civil servant who served as an inspector under Su Qian and was a seventh-rank official.
He looked down on Shen Zhongying and others as well as the Black Turban Army, and was even more disdainful of Su Qian for defecting to King Fu and abandoning the orthodox court.
But I am of low status and my words have little influence, so I dare not say much.
Although he knew that Chu Jiao had sneaked out and joined Lin Feng's Qingshui Army, he did not blame her too much.
When the father and daughter met, one sat and the other stood in front of the hall, both were silent.
After a while, Chu Jiao couldn't bear it any longer.
"Dad, the city is finished, and Su Qian is also finished. We can't continue to mess around with them."
Chu Shijie snorted coldly: "I want you to teach Dad a lesson, first tell me where you have been these days and what have you done?"
Chu Jiao straightened up and said, "My daughter went to work for Lin Feng. I was worried about you and mother, so I came back to Qingshui to take you back."
"That's easy to say, but who can leave the city gate now?"
Chu Jiao was delighted when she heard his tone.
"Dad, as long as you want to leave, there is a way."
Chu Shijie sighed: "Alas, even if I want to leave, your mother probably won't leave."
"why?"
"She can't let go of your aunt and Su Yun."
Chu Jiao stopped talking. Her family could leave, but as for her uncle's family, they would definitely not go to Qingshui.
Everyone knows that Su Qian and Du Lisheng conspired to murder General Qin Zhong.
The Qin side will not let Su Qian go.
Chu Jiao didn't know what her father was thinking, and she didn't dare to tell him the task that Lin Feng had assigned to her.
I had no choice but to remain silent and think of a solution secretly.
Chu Shijie was a genuine Jinshi from a great family. He was well-read and had served as an official for many years. He understood everything.
"Jiao'er, what is your purpose for coming back this time?"
"Dad, I..."
Chu Shijie raised his hand to stop her from speaking.
"Lin Feng will not let go of the city, nor will he let go of the Black Scarf Army. Just look at the combat power of both sides and you will know that the Black Scarf Army will not be able to survive for many days."
"Dad, you are wise."
Chu Shijie glanced around the room and lowered his voice.
"Is Lin Feng planning to take over the city?"
Chu Jiao didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.
"Didn't you tell me how to do it?"
Chu Jiao shook her head again.
She really didn't know about this. How to do it was the business of the Qingshui Army's top leaders, and it had nothing to do with her.
Chu Shijie leaned back in his chair and pondered for a while.
"What can I do?"
Although he seemed to be talking to himself, he was actually asking for his daughter's opinion.
Chu Jiao was overjoyed. With her father's help, the mission in the capital city would be much easier.
The key is that you don’t have to become enemies with your closest relatives.
"Dad, Lin Feng wants to take over the city anyway. As for what you want to do, just do your best."
Chu Jiao was already leaning against Chu Shijie at this time, speaking softly.
Chu Shijie smiled slightly and reached out to stroke Chu Jiao's hair.
"Dad has a good personal relationship with He Zhiwu, so he can persuade him. It's not too late for him to go and join Lin Feng now."
Chu Jiao nodded vigorously: "Dad, this is great."
Chu Shijie looked at Chu Jiao's face with relief.
Fortunately, he had this daughter who had a unique vision and chose Lin Feng's camp, leaving himself a way out.
"I heard that Lin Feng was appointed General Zhenxi and granted the title of Earl of Zhongyuan. Is that true?"
"Father, this is absolutely true. I have seen the imperial edict and the earl's golden seal."
"Okay, okay, Dad can return to orthodoxy until his death."
Chu Jiao pouted: "Dad, what are you talking about? As long as we act carefully, nothing will happen."
Chu Shijie shook his head gently: "This Black Scarf Society has no humanity and is deceiving the people. Sooner or later, they will be killed by them."
"So, we have to act quickly, Dad."
"Okay, I'll invite General He to our house for a banquet tonight."
Chu Shijie slapped the armrest of the chair and made up his mind.
He Zhiwu is currently serving as the General of the Fucheng Army, commanding 10,000 Fucheng troops and is the top subordinate of the Inspector General Su Qian.
Because the Black Turban Army was rampant and still had 30,000 troops in the city, he had been pushed to the margins and had no say at all.
Feeling depressed, he immediately rushed to Chu's house after receiving Chu Shijie's invitation letter.
There were only Chu Shijie and He Zhiwu in the room, with two maids standing in the corner serving them.
The two drank in silence for a long time.
Chu Shijie said, "Brother He, have you visited the Virgin Mary today?"
"Hey, whoever dares not go, Brother Chu will have to pay his respects obediently."
"Alas, Heaven, Earth, Emperor, Parents, and Teachers, now there is another Saint Mother, which really makes us lose our dignity."
He Zhiwu sneered: "Just say this kind of thing in front of me, otherwise, you, the guy who makes a living, will be in trouble."
Chu Shijie stared at him: "Brother He, are you willing to do this?"
