Yingtian Prefecture, Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion.
The Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion is one of the Imperial Music Bureau's managed properties.
It can be considered a distinctive feature of the Great Yu Dynasty in South Zhili, due to the region's developed economy and lucrative entertainment industry, which makes taxation challenging. Thus, an Emperor from a former generation came up with the idea of officially operating brothels.
In fact, such a practice was not without precedent and existed anciently.
For instance, Guan Yiwu, the revered founding figure currently worshipped in brothels, was a pioneer of the industry. He established the very first state-run brothel – Nu Lü.
Behind Su Lianqing, Mother Chen from Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion combed her hair with a reluctant expression and said, "Inspector Wu has sent word, and it's difficult for me to keep you. Now that you've been removed from the entertainment registry, have you thought about your future livelihood?"
