Although Chen Tianhua was mentally prepared, he did not expect that a girl younger than himself would live in such an elegant mansion.

It is unknown whether this is her own or a secret stronghold built with money from the Alliance or the Restoration Society.

I heard Liu Yufang once said that the Liberation Society provided part of the money for the Red Sleeve Book Apartment in Shanghai, Yufang and Chen Yingshi provided half of the money, and Luan Rong also held part of the shares.

In other words, Luan Rong is not a migrant worker, she is still one of the bosses.

In the past few days, because of the Military Coordination Office, Chen Tianhua had a new understanding of this top-notch brothel courtesan in Shanghai.

Although she entertains people with sex, she does not serve as a pillow, and always maintains her own characteristics and reputation.

Things are rare and valuable!

In brothels, most of the people who are popular actresses who are both talented and beautiful and good at dealing with people are either rich or noble.

These people have status and taste, and their families are not short of lovely wives and concubines, and they are not compelled to covet women from brothels.

What these people pursue is a mutually satisfying relationship.

The dignitaries who value their reputation come here just to get together with friends, drink wine, listen to music, enjoy singing and dancing, lean against the red and green, and show their elegance.

Or invite some friends to discuss business, and then leave after drinking, and many of them don't have to do anything casual.

Therefore, in order to become a popular sign in a prestigious brothel, it is difficult for anyone with a pleasant appearance to become popular.

The ancients said: Flowers cannot be red for a hundred days, and people cannot be good for a thousand days.

The courtesan who gets what he gets will always get tired of it, but what he doesn’t get is always the best.

This is the nature of animals.

There were very few beauties from the Qing Dynasty like Luan Rong and others, but they understood the principle of "rare things are valuable" and "establishing one's own brand".

They are very talented, they are proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and they are also good at singing and dancing.

At the same time, they are generous in behavior and extraordinary in conversation. They can take care of all aspects of the guests and smooth things over very well.

In short, the more amazing her talent and appearance, the more famous she is, the higher her status and worth will be.

Many rich and wealthy people wanted to communicate with her. She was arty and elegant, and spent thousands of dollars on her. Even if she couldn't sleep, she still felt full of aftertaste.

This is particularly similar to the ‘entertainment circle’ in modern society.

Of course, if some of the brothel's signature actresses fall in love with an outstanding young man and work together to make money, things will happen.

But this is not for the money, but for the mutual pleasure of the two.

A middle-aged woman who looked like a housekeeper came out. Without waiting for Chen Tianhua's introduction, she spoke first:

"Your Excellency General, Miss Luan Rong is playing the harp in the stone pavilion. She has told you that after bringing you in, you can just go there by yourself. I have to go and do other things."

Chen Tianhua was brought back from his reverie by the housekeeper's explanation.

"It's okay, you can go and do your business, I'll just go over there."

Chen Tianhua nodded and smiled at the pretty housekeeper, and then he walked towards the stone pavilion.

As he got closer and closer to the ancient pavilion, he heard the sound of strings playing.

There was a woman in the pavilion, with her back to where he came from, sitting in front of the table, stroking a guzheng.

Her pair of slender jade fingers, as white as green onions, were playing with them rapidly, and the sound of the piano was tinkling and melodious, with a profound artistic conception and a feeling of freedom and elegance.

Judging from his back, he should be Luan Rong.

The last time Chen Tianhua saw Luan Rong was at night, and she was on duty in the study apartment. She should be a "night beauty" with colorful makeup.

The beauty you see under candlelight is a hazy night beauty. What you see is only the general outline of the person, and you cannot see it carefully.

Today, the sun is shining brightly, so you can see this famous Shanghai courtesan outdoors.

Luan Rong's back was facing Chen Tianhua's direction. She was as slim as the moon and had long hair, tied with only a plain belt.

The clothes are flowing in the breeze, as elegant as a fairy, exuding the meaning of being free from dust, and immersing yourself in the music of the piano.

Seeing the familiar figure, his heart skipped a beat, there was a slight movement, and his breathing also changed slightly.

We are finally going to see the true face of the leader of the Red Sleeve Bookstore! What kind of appearance is he that is so beautiful that he is as beautiful as a fish or a wild goose?

He has super strong inner strength and walks with a steady and light pace.

As he gradually approached Shiting, the other party did not notice the figure behind him at all.

Bamboo pavilion, Taiwan table, guzheng, beauty.

Chen Tianhua stood quietly behind Luan Rong, listening to the sound of the piano, and could even smell a woman's fragrance.

This piano piece was a piece of music he plagiarized from Du Mu's "Po Qinhuai" in order to get a meeting. Apparently he had changed it a lot.

The way she sang was a bit desolate. Although Chen Tiantian didn't know much about music, it still sounded very classical.

However, this piece is somewhat sad and resentful, and is not suitable for lively and festive scenes.

After a while, the sound of the piano stopped, and she finally finished playing.

"Miss Luan Rong!"

At this time, seeing that the strings of the piano were quiet, Chen Tianhua called out softly.

"ah…"

Although she was mentally prepared, she was still taken aback.

She didn't look back, she just reminisced about its rich and low tone, but it was magnetic.

The man's voice sounded, and he knew that Chen Tianhua had arrived.

I saw her slowly stand up, slowly turn around, and face each other face to face in the sun.

Exquisite facial features, skin as bright as snow, a pair of single phoenix eyes, willow-leaf eyebrows, emerald green and black, bright eyes and white teeth.

Wearing a delicate light yellow gauze pleated skirt, it hangs straight on the ground, showing a long and slender neck, and two fragrant shoulders that are cut down diagonally.

The arms are hanging down, longer than the shoulders and reaching the hips. The slender waist is inward, concave with a rainbow bridge-like curve, and the figure is beautiful.

Her ink-dyed hair is tied with a white silk handkerchief, which is unparalleled in beauty.

Behind the beautiful shadow is the shimmering water surface, and the slender and graceful bamboo shadow is as gentle and moving as a painting.

Luan Rong's appearance today was specially dressed up for Chen Tianhua to see. She was definitely different from a brothel girl or a coquettish concubine.

She knew in her heart that Chen Tianhua didn't actually see her true face last time, and today, she wanted to make the young general moved when he saw her.

"General, I'm glad to invite you, hee hee!" Luan Rong's red lips parted slightly, looking quite satisfied.

For a moment, Chen Tianhua felt a strong visual impact and had to admit that she was indeed very beautiful!

An extraordinary, pure and beautiful girl.

"Luan Rong, how did you come to Hankou from Shanghai? Also, why did you come to see Chen this time?" Chen Tianhua sighed softly, his face calmed down, and he asked casually.

Although the other party is a beautiful woman, he is also a passionate man, and the impact on the senses is indeed great.

But after all, his soul has traveled through time, and he has lived in two lives. He has never seen any people or experienced anything. His basic skill is to remain calm when things change.

When Luan Rong saw his gaze, her eyes changed from admiration to calmness, and her extraordinary concentration made her secretly admire him.

This general is really no ordinary person.

He was not obsessed with greed and unable to control his consciousness and demeanor like many adult scholars in Chang'an.
