Chapter 66 Encountering the Little Maquis Outside a Brothel (2)
Wen Yantong got off the carriage and was about to enter when she was suddenly stopped by Fu Zixian. His ears were red, whether it was from the cold or something else, as he stuttered, "We– we can't go to this kind of place..."
"It's okay. I'm just here to get something. How about you wait for me at the door, and I'll come out in a while." Wen Yantong patted his hand and comforted him.
"No, it is forbidden by the Academy," Fu Zixian said.
"I'll come out soon." Wen Yantong didn't listen at all and went in while talking.
Fu Zixian hesitated at the door, but in the end, worried about her going in alone, he composed himself and followed suit.
On the other side of the street, stood Chi Jingxi, Mu Yang, and the others. Several people witnessed the carriage passing in front of them, and then they saw Wen Yantong and Fu Zixian coming down from it and exchanging a couple of words. It seemed that Fu Zixian wanted to stop him, but he wasn’t able to dissuade the stubborn Wen Yantong. In the end, the two entered the Qin Mo one after the other.
Mu Yang sighed blankly. "These two rabbits sure are courageous..."
After Wen Yantong entered the brothel, the female brothel keeper happened to be greeting guests at the door. When she saw the two, she immediately came up with a smile. Without any regard for Wen Yantong's young age, the brothel keeper dragged her inside.
Wen Yantong didn't have time to argue with her, so she cut to the chase and asked, "Do you have a girl named Xiao Yan here?"
The female brothel keeper replied, "Oh, Yan'er? Unfortunately, she’s fully scheduled for the day and is receiving a customer now. How about picking a different one? We have all kinds of girls in this building."
Wen Yantong was overjoyed and asked, "Is the person, who ordered Xiao Yan, surnamed Feng?"
As soon as the brothel keeper heard this, her expression changed. She could see that Wen Yantong was not trying to spend money but to inquire about news. The old brothel keeper was a smart woman, she naturally knew that this kind of guest was most likely to cause trouble, so she replied, "I don’t know. Please don’t make blind inquiries, gongzi."
Wen Yantong took out a large banknote from her sleeves. "Is he surnamed Feng?"
The female brothel keeper’s eyes widened at the sight of money. She smiled sweetly while accepting the banknote. "Yes, yes! I heard he is the cook at Songhai Academy. He likes Xiao Yan here the most, and he also said that he wants to redeem her."
Wen Yantong heaved a sigh of relief. She took out two banknotes and raised her voice to the female brothel keeper. "Give me the banknote that Old Feng gave you today. Then these two are yours."
When the old brothel keeper heard this, her face changed again.
Wen Yantong was puzzled. She wanted to ask if the female brothel keeper was Li Boyuan's junior sister and whether the two of them went to Sichuan to learn the art of face changing together.
She said, "No can do! No can do! Don't bring disaster to me, gongzi. I'm just a little brothel keeper!"
Wen Yantong took out another bill. "I'll add another one."
"Even if you gave me two more, it’s not enough."
"Three!" Wen Yantong took out all her banknotes. "This opportunity only comes once in a lifetime!"
The female brothel keeper knew that some things couldn't be messed with. Even if her eyes were red with greed, she stubbornly refused. "Gongzi, let's look at the other girls in here..."
She looked as if she was ready to flee and secretly gave the girl next to her a wink.
How could Wen Yantong let her leave easily? She chased after her.

However, as soon as she stepped forward, Wen Yantong was tripped over by the girl next to her. Wen Yantong instinctively stretched out her hand in a panic but unexpectedly grabbed the brothel keeper's clothes. She tore her outer layer with a loud rip, and her whole body slammed onto the floor.
She got up from the ground in a hurry and heard the female brothel keeper shout in a shrill voice, "Indecent!"
She widened her eyes and waved her hands. "Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding!"
The old brothel keeper was obviously a veteran. As soon as she waved her hand, the guards of the brothel poured in from the back door. She shouted, "Catch that rascal!"
Wen Yantong knew that the old brothel keeper was eyeing the banknotes in her hand and cussed at her misstep. Fu Zixian only brought four attendants, so they couldn't beat these guards at all. If this matter gets too big and spreads, then Fu Zixian's reputation would be in danger.
It doesn't matter to her as she was only the child of a wealthy businessman, but Fu Zixian was different. Although he was only a concubine-born son, he was still the son of a senior minister.
After a quick calculation, Wen Yantong lifted her legs and ran out. Best to slip away first.
Seeing that she was about to escape, the guards chased after her, pushing aside the guests in the building to catch up. And Fu Zixian, who was surrounded by several girls, also saw what happened on Wen Yantong's side and hurriedly pushed away the girls beside him.
The only advantage was that Wen Yantong was not far from the door. Although she was limping, her running speed was not considered slow.
Fu Zixian was so frightened that his face turned pale white. Seeing that she was holding a piece of bright cloth in one hand and a banknote in the other, he asked loudly, "What happened?!"
"Don't ask! Just run!" Wen Yantong lowered her head and drilled out of the crowd.
She cursed inwardly. Everything written in the books was a lie! Wasn’t it always said that the brothel keeper in the brothel would do anything for money?! This old brothel keeper clearly was jealous of money and wanted to kill!
The section at the entrance of Qin Mo was covered with snow, making it extremely slippery. When Wen Yantong ran out, she slipped and was about to do a split, but fortunately, she caught her balance in time.
It may be because of all the fright, Fu Zixian had not stabilized his body. As soon as he went out, he fell all over the place and slid down the three stairs.
Seeing this, Wen Yantong hurriedly turned around to help him. After such a delay, the guards from the brothel had already caught up to them.
When the four attendants, who were standing beside the carriage, saw that their master was being chased, they immediately stepped forward. With their swords raised, the attendants blocked the brothel guards from reaching Fu Zixian with their bodies.
There were many guards from the brothel, so they were not afraid; they immediately surrounded the carriage to prevent them from leaving.
The female brothel keeper walked out of the crowd. She stood on the top of the three steps and said to Wen Yantong condescendingly, "You want to leave after insulting this old lady? Leave all the money on your body now. Otherwise, your other leg will be left lame too."
Wen Yantong's expression turned ugly.
Too careless! Now she was about to eat the loss of inexperience! She thought that she would be able to leave after asking for a banknote, but she didn't think this brothel keeper would be so difficult to deal with.
"So lively? What’s happening here?" A curious voice suddenly came from the side.
Everyone looked back together and saw Mu Yang, folding his hands.
Chi Jingxi was beside him; his handsome countenance was calm, seemingly as if he was really just a passerby.
But at this time, he was standing not far away, quietly looking at Wen Yantong, who was surrounded by the crowd.
