Chapter 219: Good Soil and Water in Jiangnan
Yuan Yi and Yuan Er went upstairs and searched room by room. Mu Nanyan knew that this brothel was openly owned by Song Qingyan, so she had to give everyone an explanation. Fortunately, Song Qingyan killed the father and son, so the matter was not too troublesome.
Mu Nanyan pointed at the soldier closest to her and said, "You, go to the City Lord's Mansion and call the City Lord over. Tell him that I want him to explain the problem with Jiangyan Tower."
"Yes, Princess. I'll go right away." After saying that, he ran away.
Mu Nanyan found the indentures of the people present, which recorded the time they entered the building. The longest time had been six years. "Wang Qingqing is that one?"
"The princess is me." The woman kneeling between the two tables raised her hand.
I was so busy arranging tasks that I forgot to ask these people to stand up. "Stand up, don't kneel. You haven't done anything wrong. Even if you have done something wrong, you have to wait for me to find out."
The girls on the ground stood up tremblingly, and some of them huddled together.
Mu Nanyan asked: "Wang Qingqing, you should be the oldest here, right?"
Wang Qingqing knelt down and answered, "That's right, everyone older than me has passed away."
Mu Nanyan waved her hand, "Get up, don't kneel all the time, it seems that you don't know what's going on outside."
"I haven't left here since I came here. I can only learn about the news outside from the tenants." Although Wang Qingqing stood up, her waist was still bent.
Mu Nanyan waved her hand and said, "Someone, copy the notice and post it on the platform of Jiangyan Tower so that everyone can see it."
Ta-da! Several soldiers ran out.
She had originally brought fifteen people with her, but after being ordered around like this, only two were left. That was because they were not in Kyoto. She didn't expect the situation in Jiangcheng to be like this. She didn't bring enough people. It was her mistake.
I thought Emperor Tianyou would give her something good, but instead he asked her to clean up the mess and clear the obstacles for Jun Zhuoyuan. He is quite calculating.
"I have sent someone back to the capital to fetch a doctor. When he arrives, he will treat you first. Don't worry, there is nothing I cannot teach. When you can go out, ask me about my medical skills."
A brave girl said, "We all know about the princess's medical skills. The tenants mentioned it a lot in their conversations before."
Mu Nanyan asked: "You are very brave, what's your name?"
Sun Jingjing knelt down and said, "I am Sun Jingjing. This is probably because I was arrested only half a month ago."
"That's a nice name. Stand up and answer. Where are you from?"
Sun Jingjing stood up immediately and said, "I am from the neighboring city of Su. I was kidnapped half a month ago when I went shopping."
Mu Nanyan nodded, "Okay, I got it. After I check everyone's health, if anyone wants to go home, I will send you back. If you don't want to go back, you can stay in Jiangcheng."
Leisure time is boring. Mu Nanyan looked around and thought she might as well enjoy it. "Girls, stop standing there. Put on your prettiest clothes and show them to me. Those who can dance, please dance for me. Those who can sing, please sing. Those who can play, please play. Do you have any iced fruits for me?"
I'm so speechless. Are these people really in this line of work? They have no sense at all. I should have known not to scare the madam to death. Otherwise, there would be no fun.
As soon as Mu Nanyan finished speaking, the group rushed upstairs like crazy. In less than five minutes, they had all changed their clothes. Mu Nanyan moved the stool to a new position so that they could see the entire stage.
As expected of brothel girls, they all have slim figures and waists as soft as water, not to mention the long flowing sleeves. It is simply a visual feast for the eyes. No wonder these people love to come here to have fun.
Several girls brought fruit plates and some brought wine.
Song Qingyan was shocked when he arrived. This scene of peace and prosperity did not seem like someone coming to call him to account. He had known that the princess would investigate Jiangyan Tower, and he was ready to step down.
"City Lord Song is here. Someone, bring him a stool." Mu Nanyan called to the girl standing beside her.
Song Qingyan hesitated for a moment before sitting down.
"Miss, do you already know?"
Mu Nanyan spat out the melon seed shells and said, "You are talking nonsense, otherwise I would not be here. Why did I ask you to come? Are you really here to watch them dance?"
Why aren’t these melon seeds as delicious as the ones from Li Wang’s Mansion? Could it be that her stomach has really been taken over?
"Since the princess knows, I will leave on my own." Song Qingyan said in a deep voice.
"Why are you leaving? Did I say that? I called you here for your reputation. If you want to be the city lord, you must have a good reputation. Are you familiar with these officials in Jiangcheng? And what is the relationship between these noble families and Song Jinyu? Go back and check it out. I will settle the matter of Jiangyanlou for you."
"Good!" Mu Nanyan looked at the people on the stage and applauded. This dance was good and looked powerful.
Song Qingyan was unwilling to give up. "Miss, I am the owner of Jiangyan Tower. Princess, you know what Jiangyan Tower does."
Mu Nanyan propped up her chin, "Why, do I look stupid? It doesn't matter if I know how or not. You just need to know that I can handle this matter, but I need to know the information of all the officials and families. Oh, by the way, I just took away a group of people, and it seems that there should be someone you know. Go back and identify them. I will never let these people go. They have committed a capital crime."
"I was worrying too much. I'll go back and check it out." Song Qingyan stood up and saluted.
Mu Nanyan knocked on the table and said, "Don't be so gentle next time. It sounds weird. Just say it to me next time." She sounded like a bandit.
Song Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief, "I see. When will the young lady be back? I'll ask the mansion to prepare food."
"It's almost there. Let me take a walk around for a while. You can skip lunch and be back on time for dinner." Mu Nanyan waved her hand to tell him to go faster so as not to delay her from appreciating her beauty.
After watching the three dances, Mu Nanyan asked them to line up for pulse diagnosis. She always had to check the situation first. In case there was something that Qin Duo couldn't cure, she could still give her a solution in advance. This could be considered as learning one more trick for her.
After looking around, I found that none of these girls were in good condition except the ones who just arrived. I didn't see their specific conditions, so I could only prescribe these pain-relieving and anti-itching medicines for them to relieve the symptoms, and then wait for Qin Duo to arrive to see.
Mu Nanyan spent a whole day here, and it was dark when she went out. Jun Zhuoyuan waited at the door for a whole day and read a lot of files. All those who knew that their sons were arrested came to ask about Mu Nanyan and ran to Jiangyanlou to plead for mercy. When they arrived, they saw Jun Zhuoyuan guarding the door like a giant Buddha. Everyone who dared to move was waiting not far away. They waited for a whole day and their legs were numb from standing. They didn't know whether to leave or not.
When Mu Nanyan came out and saw these people, she guessed their intention, which was to deliberately ignore them. With Jun Zhuoyuan around, no one would dare to come up, which saved a lot of trouble.
Mu Nanyan leaned on Jun Zhuoyuan's shoulder as soon as she got on the carriage. She was having so much fun that she felt very sleepy.
Jun Zhuoyuan pressed her head and said, "Yanyan, isn't it inconvenient for you to send Wushuang back?"
Mu Nanyan enjoyed it very much. The girls inside were really talkative after getting to know each other. "It doesn't matter. When she is here, she will just bring me some bath water. When she is not here, it will be more convenient for me to go back to the space to take a bath."
Mu Nanyan asked: "Have you settled the hospital matter? Wushuang and the others are rushing to arrive in seven days at the latest. We can't let her get treated outside. I still have to decorate the shop after it's settled."
Jun Zhuoyuan said: "We will definitely be able to take it down tomorrow. We have already checked it out. It's not a good thing. We can just take it away. Yanyan just needs to think about how to decorate it. I will ask someone to go to the shop to check it out tomorrow."
"A Yuan is really quick. Has he been reading files at the door all day?" Mu Nanyan sat up and leaned against the window, watching the silent street scene with people coming and going.
Jun Zhuoyuan looked at her back and said, "Jiangcheng is corrupt to the core. We need to replace it with fresh blood as soon as possible. None of these officials are innocent, not to mention the noble families. They all make dirty money. Some of them can be arrested and chopped off directly."
"Jun Zhuoyuan, I want to make this place better. Would you like to join me?" Mu Nanyan turned her head and looked at him with shining eyes.
It was the first time she had this idea. She actually wanted to spend her whole life with him. She always felt safe with him around. She didn't need to think about anything, as someone would think about it for her.
"Okay." Jun Zhuoyuan smiled dotingly and rubbed her head.
"Let's come over and stay for a few days when we have time. I like this place very much. The water and soil in the south of the Yangtze River are very nourishing. Look, your arms are not as rough as before." Mu Nanyue touched his smooth arms. Although it was not bad to be together, she liked his delicate skin and tender flesh better now.
