Chapter 66: Six Flowers and Three Pearls
” Welcome, Welcome to our humble abode. Young Master.”
Before Jia Hao could say anything, a woman wearing makeup and a yellow dress already dragged her into the building.
” Young Master, Is this your first time here?” The woman looked at Jia Hao with enthusiasm.
” Hehe, Beautiful sister is wise. I am new to the city and heard the fame of Phoenix Cloud Pavilion. So, I couldn’t help but come here.” Jia Hao smiled lightly.
” Ah, then Young Master heard right about us. There is no place in Nanhai City that can match our Phoenix Cloud Pavilion.” The woman spoke in a proud voice.
” Only the Fragrant Palace of Capital City is something which can rival us.”
” Is that so?” Jia Hao casually took out a few taels of gold and passed them to the woman.
” Then, Beautiful Sister, I hope you will give me a good tour around here.”
Placing the gold taels in her pouch, the woman’s smile became wider. She wasn’t that good looking, but she certainly managed to cover her shortcomings with her attire and mannerisms.
‘ It looks like it’s his first time visiting a brothel. Hehe, Just talking to him and he handed me five taels of gold. It’s one month of my salary!’ Little Mi became excited.
” As you wish, Young Master. Please follow me. My name is Little Mi and I shall be your guide this evening.”
” Xiao Mi?” Jia Hao suddenly spoke.
” Yes, Young Master?” Little Mi looked at Jia Hao with attention.
” Oh, Nothing. I just thought about something.” Jia Hao suppressed his urge to laugh as he nodded.
Giving him a glance, Little Mi turned around and walked. ” There are a lot of places to visit in Phoenix Cloud Pavilion.”
” For example, In the northern room, there is a play ongoing where four of our beautiful courteseans perform a song.”
” In the southern hall, One of our Six Flowers Miss Luan is showcasing her amazing pipa skills.”
” The upper floor is for meeting and eating. Our Phoenix Cloud Pavilions’ Rice Cloud Wine is very famous. Young Master should try it along with roasted meat.”
” Well, Then where I can employ personal pleasure service?” Jia Hao asked with an amused voice.
” Hehe, Young Master is getting impatient, are you?” Little Mi giggled. ” Since it’s your first time, I should give the standards of courteseans here.”
” There are four types of women here. Maids, Courteseans, Six Flowers and Three Pearls.”
” Uhh, Let me guess, The three Pearls are simply untouchables? They only sell their skills and not their body?” Jia Hao suddenly spoke,
” Umm… Young Master is telling the truth, but only half.” Little Mi smiled. ” There is always a price for everything, Young Master.”
” However, Our Phoenix Cloud Pavilion isn’t as forceful as the Jiaofang Division of Imperial Family. The Six Flowers and Three Pearls enjoy many advantages and freedoms over maids and courteseans.”
” Only if they see your competence and agree, you can naturally have a night with them.” Little Mi smiled.
” That makes things a lot easier.” Jia Hao chuckled as he followed him. ” So, Anything interesting happening right now?”
” Of course. Today, Miss Xu Chenlan, the youngest of three pears is going to perform sword dance. However, you can’t use money to buy a seat for her performance.”
” Then?” Jia Hao became curious.
” It shall be a poetry test. If your poetry managed to catch Lady Xu’s eyes, you shall be allowed to watch her performance.”
Jia Hao’s grin widened as he nodded. ” Haha, Sure, Why not? This does sound very interesting.”
” Then, Young Master, Shall I guide you to there?”
” Very well.”
Nodding, Jia Hao followed Little Mi as he walked with enthusiasm. ‘ Hehe, I knew it such a thing would happen. Thankfully, I have downloaded a lot of poems and couplets on my phone.’
It wasn’t like Jia Hao couldn’t learn poetry and matching couplets. However, He just chose the easier way.
As Jia Hao and Little Mi already arrived in the hall, It was bustling with crowd. A lot of people were there to catch a glimpse of Xu Chenlan.
Jia Hao threw another Little Mi more moneya s he chuckled. ” Arrange me a better seat where I can watch and write poetry with ease.”
” As you wish, Young Master.” Little Mi smiled brightly as she took his money.
Although you can’t use the money to buy a seat to view Xu Chenlan’s sword dance, you need to pay money to attend the competition after all.
Getting a good table, Jia Hao’s gaze swept through the hall, seeing some hidden figures in the corners.
‘ Not bad, The Phoenix Cloud Pavilion does have some security and backing. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have stayed standing for so till now.’ Jia Hao thought inwardly.
Among the people here, the majority were in the Body Strengthening Realm. However, there were also some people who reached the Profound Awakening Realm.
And among them, there were also a few young looking people, probably the young nobles of various clans.
‘ Tsk, Being born in a rich family does make your martial path easier. After all, the amount of resources to reach the Profound Awakening Realm before the age of 16 isn’t something ordinary people can afford.’
However, Jia Hao believed as long as he cultivate the Golden Arhat Vajra Body Art and Six Desires Myriad Thought Art, reaching the powerful realm won’t be an issue.
As everyone was drinking and laughing, they couldn’t help but keep looking at the balcony,
Suddenly, two maids appeared as they clapped their hands, making the crowd silent.
” Gentlemen of Nanhai City, My lady greets all of you and appreciates that you came here this evening.” One maid said.
” However, today, My lady wishes to hear some poetry. As long as you are able to satisfy her, you shall witness her sword dance.”
Bother of them slowly unfurled the scroll they were holding as they hung it down from the balcony. The hall became even quieter as they studied the painting on the scroll.
Jia Hao sat with his usually calm expression as he looked at the painting. He had to admit, it was quite a beautiful painting.
