The Nameless of the Common Clans

Many people confuse brothels with brothels, including Chen Mo. Before coming to Luoyang, he didn't quite understand the difference between them. There was also a brothel in Dangli, which was opened by the Tang family. Tang Yuan had also invited Chen Mo, but Zang Hong was worried that Chen Mo would go astray and indulge in the land of tenderness, so he issued a strict order not to allow Chen Mo to step into one of them. So although Chen Mo wanted to understand, he had no way.

After coming to Luoyang, Cao Cao had invited Chen Mo to the brothel several times. It was only then that Chen Mo understood the difference between brothels and brothels.

Brothels are for the flesh trade, which has existed for a long time. Brothels have actually appeared for quite a long time, but compared to brothels, brothels are much more elegant.

In terms of the source of customers, most of the people who go to brothels are prostitutes, while most of the people who go to brothels are scholars. Moreover, the nuns there are not those who sell their bodies. They are not proficient in everything, but most of them are specialized in one of them. They are elegant in conversation. The scholars come here not for physical pleasure, but are mostly polite.

Moreover, brothels are private and not open to the public. Even if you have money, you can't go in if no one invites you. Of course, you still have to spend the money you should spend. Most of the time you listen to music and watch dances. If you like a nun, you can invite her to drink, but if she doesn't want to, you can't force her.

Chunnuan Pavilion, it is said that it is the family business of the Yuan family in Luoyang. Generally, celebrities or high-ranking officials are invited. Cao Cao was able to bring him here. It seems that the Cao family is not as isolated as he imagined.

The sound of stringed instruments flowed between the buildings like a gurgling stream, making people feel happy physically and mentally. Cao Cao touched his long beard and admired the graceful figure of the woman on the dance floor. He shook his head and smiled, "Benchu, I haven't seen you for a few years. Chunnuan Pavilion has become more and more popular."

"In such a quiet place, why does Meng De mention such vulgar things? It ruins the elegance." Yuan Shao, who was sitting at the top, had not spoken yet, but Yuan Shu beside him said with some dissatisfaction.

"How can there be so many elegance and vulgarity in this world? Gonglu still remembers that you put the chicken into your eagle's nest." Cao Cao smiled casually.

Yuan Shu's face darkened when he heard it, but his momentum weakened a little: "How can the absurd things I did in my childhood count? Besides, it was not your idea?"

But Yuan Shu's family raised a pair of eagles that year. Cao Cao wanted to see if the eagle would eat the chicks if he put the chicken into the eagle's nest and hatched them. As a result, Yuan Shu really did it.

"Okay." Yuan Shao couldn't help laughing when he thought of the mother eagle staring at the chick for an hour after it hatched. He turned his head and looked at Cao Cao and said, "But, Meng De, if the eagle was like a human, what would you think at that time?"

"I guess the male eagle and the female eagle would fight." Cao Cao laughed.

"Vulgar!" Yuan Shu glared at Cao Cao fiercely, but couldn't help laughing.

When the three of them took action, there were three others, but they were not as open-minded as Cao Cao.

"I remember that it was you who urged us to rob the newlywed wife." Yuan Shu looked at Cao Cao unhappily and snorted, "Do you know what happened to that woman later?"

"We didn't do anything." Cao Cao smacked his lips, thinking about the ridiculous things he did back then, and felt a little ashamed. However, after that, he returned to his hometown and didn't really care about what happened later. He couldn't help asking, "How is it?"

"She was driven out of her husband's family and threw herself into a well in anger. Fortunately, her family rescued her in time, but..." Yuan Shu sighed, and seeing that Cao Cao looked a little regretful, he shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I asked someone to take her family to Runan and help her find a family. Although she was from a poor family, she was still a good match for her."

"Thank you Gonglu for this, otherwise I'm afraid I would regret it for a long time." Cao Cao said solemnly, bowing to Yuan Shu.

"Hey, you were the one who gave us advice on many absurd things we did back then, and we were the ones who got a bad name. I can accept this gift!" Yuan Shu did not want to pursue it, otherwise he would not have helped Cao Cao to clean up the mess, but he gladly accepted Cao Cao's gift.

"Meng De, you invited us to a banquet here, saying that you would recommend talents to us, but I don't know where the person is?" A scholar asked with a smile at the place where the three people started.

"It's almost there. This person is a disciple of Zang Ziyuan. I met him on the way. Although he is young, he has a lot of ideas and a photographic memory. He also has unique insights in military tactics. He is a rare genius. This time he entered Luoyang and was appointed as a boy. Although he is young, I hit it off with him and we call each other brothers." Cao Cao said with a smile.

"Tongzilang? Brother?" Yuan Shao and others were stunned. Tongzilang would not be a grown-up man at most, that is to say, he would be 19 years old at most. Cao Cao is 34 years old this year. How can he call a teenager a brother? And Zang Hong and his friends knew that he was younger than Cao Cao. How could Cao Cao treat his disciples as brothers? Yuan Shao couldn't help asking, "How old is he?"

"Fourteen." Cao Cao said calmly.

"I thought you were ridiculous before." Yuan Shu looked at Cao Cao seriously, "Fourteen is not even older than my son, and he is only one year older than your Ziang. You treat him as a brother? How will you treat him if you meet Zang Ziyuan in the future?"

"Let's talk about each other. What's wrong with that? Don't look at this boy's young age. He has learned as much as you and me." Cao Cao waved his hand nonchalantly. He really liked Chen Mo and didn't want his talent to be buried. It was just a joke at first, but now Cao Cao is ready to lower his status and ask Chen Mo for help.

"Since he has been appointed as a boy, why haven't you seen him show his reputation in these days?" Yuan Shu asked with a frown.

"The Taixue Academy today is no longer the Taixue Academy you and I had in the past. If you have talent but no family, even if you have the talent to help the world, it is difficult to become famous. Since this person is a disciple of Ziyuan, what is his origin?" Yuan Shao asked.

"The Chen family of Huaipu is a descendant of Chen Xiegong. His ancestor Chen Qiong is the younger brother of Taiwei Chen Qiugong. It's just that the family has fallen into decline and is no longer well-known in the world." Cao Cao laughed.

"A side branch." Yuan Shu heard this and shook his head and sneered. If it was a descendant of Chen Gui or Chen Yu, he would still give some face, but Chen Qiong? Cao Cao guaranteed that there was probably such a person, but he was no longer a noble family, and he was probably barely even from a poor family.

Although Yuan Shu just said it casually, Yuan Shao on the side looked unhappy. He was also a concubine's son. Even though he knew that Yuan Shu's words were not directed at him, he instinctively felt a little disgusted.

"Since he was recommended by Meng De, he must have some outstanding qualities, and his family background is clean." Yuan Shao shook his head and said, "Besides, he is Ziyuan's disciple, so I should meet him."

There was some anger in Cao Cao's words, but since Cao Cao asked, and he was Zang Hong's disciple, Yuan Shao was indeed very curious about what the young man who could be admired by these two people looked like.

"Here he comes." Cao Cao had been paying attention to the hall, and saw Chen Mo bringing Dalang in, and smiled and asked the servant to greet him.
