Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

Li Ke nodded silently. Li Ke could guess these women to some extent. Without Li Ke, there would never be a shortage of young women in this industry in ancient times. Even 30 years old is considered old and fading.

There are aristocratic families behind every corner and brothel. They have a lot of ways to get young and beautiful women. After the whole country grows, there will be many women with unfortunate families. If these women are beautiful, they will either be brought here Became a side room or something.

But now, there are quite a few of these women left behind in Goulan and brothels. There are many in the entire Tang Dynasty, and there may be thousands of them in Chang'an City alone.

"How is their living condition?" Li Ke asked after thinking about it.

"It's definitely not good. Although I said that I made some money when I was young, I didn't have too much savings, and I lived in a brothel in Goulan. After I lost my income, it was impossible for them to live in these places for nothing. It needs money, and most sisters are not used to living alone."

"So I stayed here until I was old and my money was almost spent, so I could only spend the rest of my life in the side room of the brothel Goulan, or some of them just helped the young women in the brothel wash their clothes in exchange for some money. .” Helian Liuli shook her head lightly.

"That is to say, those 50-60-year-old and [-]-year-old women in the brothel Goulan I went to were all former oirans?" Li Ke asked.

"Yes. It's not just them, almost all the nuns in the Nunnery in Chang'an City are." Helian Liuli nodded.

Li Ke nodded silently, no one has ever paid attention to this group.

Most people only pay attention to their youth, and no one has ever paid attention to how miserable the life of these old women is.

"I understand." Li Ke thought for a while, and then said, "I'll go and figure out a suitable place for them."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Helian Liuli said softly.

"Thank you, these are just trivial things, even if I raise them myself, I can take care of them." Li Ke shook his head with a smile.

"I don't think His Highness will. His Highness is used to teaching people how to fish." Helian Liuli said seriously.

Li Ke smiled. In fact, there are some things that can be solved with money. As for the whereabouts of these women, to be honest, Li Ke has no good ideas for the time being, but he already has a few ideas. Just trying to find the best fit.

For example, Huiyue Theater or similar places can put them all down. Whether it is a stage play or other plays, there are always some older actors who are needed.

And since Datang has more and more demands for similar plays, these people can also arrange for them.

But Li Ke didn't think about this. It was easy to solve his own problems, but Li Ke wanted to find a way out for them.A suitable way out.

It can prevent them from completely losing their ability to live and take care of themselves when they are old.

If that's the case, it won't be easy at all.

Those who do this business will always suffer from prejudice in society, no matter in any era, even if they laugh at the poor but not at the prostitutes, but that is when they don’t know it, and when they know it, there is nothing on the surface. People say this is good.

After coming out of Helian Liuli, Li Ke brought Huo Gang over, told him about An Ying, and asked him to look for the man's information. With the current capabilities of the intelligence department, it won't take long for all of this man's information. Li Ke knew about the situation.

Just as Li Ke thought, the next evening, Huo Gang took a document and handed it to Li Ke.

After receiving this document, Li Ke opened it and looked at it. The first part was not much different from what Helian Liuli said. He used to be a lieutenant of the Datang Mansion Army, and now he is a lieutenant of the Public Security Army.

His name is Liu Shan, he is 39 years old, and his hometown is from Qingzhou. During the three years of Zhenguan’s domestic catastrophe, his whole family was gone, so he was left alone, and he has stayed in Chang’an City ever since. Never married again.

There were also people who tried to match him, but he refused them all. Huo Gang didn't find out the reason here, but he only knew that he refused.But these are not important. Follow-up will include Huo Gang's word-of-mouth investigation among the security forces and his former comrades-in-arms.

He is relatively honest, doesn't talk much, and has a dull personality in doing things. He has served in the army, but because he is not very good at talking, he has always been a school lieutenant.

The acquaintance with An Ying was also unexpected, because the role played by An Ying was the stage play "Prostitute", and the "Red Ling" she sang, in Liu Shan's experience, there were actually similarities.

When the Eastern Turks invaded the Tang Dynasty, a group of Goulan women in a small town were snatched away, but when they were happy with those Turkic people, they killed a small leader of the other party, and then the group of Goulan women were all killed by the Turkic people , And stripped off his clothes and hung them at the gate of the city for public display.

That was the first time Liu Shan participated in a battle as a mansion soldier, and then he encountered this incident.

Therefore, this can be regarded as the fate between the two. After watching this stage play, Liu Shan fell in love with An Ying, and almost all his money was used to give An Ying presents.

Over time, An Ying naturally noticed this middle-aged man who was not considered wealthy, because the clothes he was wearing were definitely not from a powerful family, so An Ying went to inquire.

After knowing his identity, An Ying thought about returning the money to him, probably this is the current state.

That's how the two got to know each other, and they didn't communicate much with each other, just a few times. After Liu Shan and An Ying showed their scheming, An Ying avoided seeing each other.

After reading these materials, Li Ke probably understood that the two people seemed to see each other right.

Of course, Liu Shan may like An Ying, or it may be because of his special experience, no matter what the reason, he fell in love with An Ying, and he is also a responsible man.

And An Ying guessed that it was more about gratitude. To be grateful to someone is to really like her.

Because Liu Shan can be said to have given all his money to An Ying, leaving almost nothing for himself, which is different from those disciples from aristocratic families who spend a lot of money.

Being grateful, I felt that he was a good match, so I naturally had other thoughts.

As for love, it is too extravagant to talk about love with ordinary people and Goulan women in this era. Even noble women and princesses may not be able to talk about love.
