Zhao Mingrui was a second-year law student at Chinese University. She liked to read novels about transmigration and rebirth. She liked to read books when she went to school, after school, and when she walked. Her eyesight was gradually getting worse. Ever since she put on glasses, the degree of her glasses had been increasing.
As for her, she liked to read novels and fantasize about unrealistic things.
"If I could transmigrate to the ancient emperor one day, how great would that be!”
"Or Guan Yu of the Three Kingdoms could be reborn. He could kill Hua Xiong with warm wine, Yan Liang and Wen Chou with warm wine, and kill six generals after passing five passes. How awesome would that be?”
On this day, Zhao Mingrui read the novel in her hand as she walked and fantasized.
She had suffered from a preference for sons since she was young, and she really wanted to transmigrate and be reborn as a man with a high status and a carefree life. She had a younger brother who was two years younger than her, and the treatment she received at home was completely different from that of her younger brother. Her younger brother lived happily in the blessing nest, while she had been living in a sea of bitterness.
Therefore, in her mind, she always wanted to be a man, if she could transmigrate and be reborn.
Suddenly, she stepped on the air and fell down. She shouted,"Help!"
It seemed that she had been distracted by reading a novel while walking and was daydreaming. She had accidentally fallen into a sewer well that was under construction by the side of the road. Due to the construction, the manhole cover was not covered, but there was a warning sign beside it. Unfortunately, she had been daydreaming and did not see it, so she fell headfirst into the well. It was very likely that she had died.
After a while, she gradually woke up.
She lay on the ground and felt as if she had lost a lot of weight. She touched her chest and felt as if it had flattened. Could she have really transmigrated into a man? Was she an emperor who could see through the details, or a valiant and brave general?
However, she did not have the strength to move. It seemed that she had fainted from hunger. A woman who looked like an ancient courtesan was squatting beside her.
"You're finally awake. You've been starving for a day and a night. Come, drink a mouthful of water and eat a freshly steamed bun.”the courtesan said sympathetically.
Zhao Mingrui took a big porcelain pot and drank a mouthful of water. She then took a few bites of the buns that were handed to her. She regained some strength and looked at herself carefully.
Sigh, she was actually a little girl. She had been starving on the streets for a day. She, who wanted to transmigrate and be reborn as a man, felt inexplicably disappointed. Why did she still want to be a woman? She was already tired of being a woman. Moreover, this time, she was a little girl who had not yet developed. This was a long and bitter life.
"This is the daughter of the Wang Yin family in the city. When she was three years old, her father gave her the name of a Buddhist temple. The old monk rubbed her head and she suddenly cried. The old monk thought she looked like a Buddhist disciple. Because everyone called Buddhist disciples 'Shi', she was called Wang Shishi. When she was four years old, her father, Wang Yin, died in prison because of his crime. As a result, she and her mother had to beg on the streets. After more than a year, her mother remarried, but she was still living on the streets, in a state where there was no one to care for her. Because she was a girl, her mother was not in the mood to take care of her, because the family she remarried into was not willing to adopt a girl from another family. Sometimes, she did not have enough to eat, so she fainted on the streets from hunger. Sigh, this child's life was hard!”An old woman beside her seemed to know Zhao Mingrui's background very well as she said to the woman who looked like a courtesan.
"You used to call me Shishi, so you can still call me Shishi. My surname is Li, so why don't you take my surname?”the courtesan said to Zhao Mingrui.
Oh, I have a name now. I'm called Li Shishi. Eh, Teacher Li, isn't this a famous prostitute from the Northern Song Dynasty? Even Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty liked her. It turned out that she had transmigrated to the Song Dynasty.
It wasn't because of the 21st century, but because of the Northern Song Dynasty's market.
It seemed that she was Teacher Li, and a young one at that. According to the old lady from the neighborhood, she was only five or six years old this year.
It seemed that she wouldn't be called Zhao Mingrui anymore. Zhao Mingrui had already died, so she would be called Li Shishi from now on.
He drank the water and ate the buns. He woke up." Come back to the brothel with me. I'll teach you the four arts, music, dance, and the art of serving others.”the courtesan said.
Zhao Mingrui also seemed to understand Li Shishi's life path.
She stood up and followed the woman who looked like a courtesan for a while. She saw a two-story building. This building wasn't too tall, but it was very spacious. There was a plaque on the building, and the plaque said "Jade House".
Then, they entered the "Jade Tower". A few young girls in their teens and twenties greeted the woman who looked like a courtesan just now,"Hello, Sister Yun. Business is pretty good today. Recently, our brothel's business has been getting better and better!”
"Really? That makes me so happy. I even brought back a beauty from the street today. When she grows up, she might be even prettier than you guys and become the number one sister of the Cuiyu Tower!”Sister Yun said.
Just now, she had given Shishi the surname Li, and now the girls were calling her "Sister Yun". It seemed that her name should be Li Yun.
As she was living on the streets, she was unkempt and looked like an African.
Li Yun arranged for her to take a bath. After she came out of the shower, Li Yun found her a set of clothes that fit her. After all, her clothes were tattered and tattered just now. Li Yun sized up Li Shishi again. She looked like a beauty just now, but now, she looked even more beautiful.
Li Yun arranged another room for Li Shishi." Jade House " was originally a brothel. Every room had a girl. It was the place where the girl ate and lived, and also the place where she received guests. Therefore, every room had a name, such as " Fragrance Room "," Agarwood Room "," Orchid Room ", and so on.
Exemplary Lee's room was called the 'Fragrance Room.'
As Li Shishi was still young, she was only five or six years old, so she could not receive guests yet. However, the singing girls in brothels had to be trained from a young age. It was the right time to start training them. Li Yun taught them the zither, chess, calligraphy, painting, singing, dancing, and the way to serve others. This "Jade House" was located in Bianliang, the capital of the Song Dynasty. Therefore, there were naturally many rich merchants and dignitaries who came to visit the brothel. If they were beautiful and talented, they would naturally be rewarded a lot. Perhaps the guest felt that this girl was particularly compatible and wanted to marry her home as a concubine to fill the room. Then, she would be redeemed and her fate would change from then on.
In the next room, there was a little girl called Dai Yu 'er who was around eight or nine years old. She had a tragic background like Li Shishi. Her parents had died not long ago because of a house fire. She had miraculously survived the fire and had been brought to the Cuiyu Building by Li Yun two months ago.
Li Shishi had been learning the pipa for two months. Li Yun felt that she had improved quite quickly, so he let her learn it together with Dai Yuer. This way, he could save a lot of effort in teaching them. After all, it was much easier to teach them together than to teach them individually.
After six or seven years of training, Exemplary Lee was already twelve years old. She had mastered the four arts of zither, chess, calligraphy, painting, singing and dancing, and the art of serving others. By the time she was twelve, she was already at the age where she could receive guests.
Next to the " Jade Tower " was the " East Taiyi Palace ". It was said that this was a royal Taoist temple. This Taoist temple and the other two " Taiyi Palaces " in Bianliang City belonged to the royal Taoist temple. Only royal relatives and high-ranking officials of the Second Rank and above were allowed to enter. However, the master of the " Jade Tower " seemed to be related to the royal relatives, so the girls of the " Jade Tower " could also enter the East Taiyi Palace with the letter written by Li Yun.
