Weeping willows cover the embankment with gold, and the leaves of the weeping willows
Water overflows Furong marsh, flowers fly peaches and plums
Qing'an City
In the street market, people come and go.The women wear tender colored dresses, while the men are either tall and bold, or thin and fair.
This is the junction of the north and the south in a general sense.It has not only the beauty and beauty of the southern water town, but also the grandeur and order of the northern towns.The ease of the day and the prosperity of the night, how many powerful people in the world, and the elders of the official family are willing to live here after retiring.
On the famous Shifang Street, Yin Hanjiang bought a few steamed buns, and he trotted a few steps into a nearby restaurant.
"Brother, eat some steamed stuffed buns first, the food may take a while to arrive."
"Okay, you eat first." Qin Yuanshan looked around vigilantly before turning around and saying to Yin Hanjiang.
Yin Hanjiang didn't refuse any more, left half of it for Qin Yuanshan, and ate it unhurriedly.
After the man left, they stayed in the small inn for another night. When they got up the next morning, they found that their bodies were much better. They didn't want to feel as if they had stepped into the gate of hell like the day before.Qin Yuanshan also became more sober, and the two of them didn't dare to stay any longer.In the morning, before dawn, I left on Zhengling Road.Be careful hiding all the way, although you were almost caught and caught several times, you escaped many times.
This is thanks to Yin Hanjiang who has practiced light kung fu hard since he was a child, Qin Yuanshan's vigilance and the two's beast-like intuition.After all, Qin Yuanshan and Yin Hanjiang, who lived in deep mountains and old forests when they were young, are both good hunters.However, if people and beasts stay together for a long time, they will always be affected.
There were quite a lot of people in the restaurant, so the food and wine were served very slowly.Yin Hanjiang and Qin Yuanshan deliberately smeared some thin patches of soil on their faces to cover up their conspicuous appearance.The clothes on his body looked a little tattered due to the days of running around and haste.Several people at the next table cast disgusting glances.
Yin Hanjiang didn't mind too much, but he suddenly noticed a few figures parked outside the door from the corner of his eye.They were a few disciples of the Dancheng sect dressed in ordinary people's clothes.
Yin Hanjiang only learned two days ago that because of the escape of the two, the head of Su had already accused Qin Yin's traitor of betraying the Dancheng faction in the name of defection, and determined that the two were related to the matter of Elder Yu.The disciples have been ordered to go down the mountain secretly to arrest him.
Qin Yuanshan followed Yin Hanjiang's gaze, his heart was shocked, and he signaled Yin Hanjiang to leave.The two left money on the table, and quickly left through the back door of the restaurant in the shape of a table of guests who were about to leave.
The heavy lakes are stacked on top of Qingjia.There are Sanqiu osmanthus and ten-mile lotus.The Qiang pipe makes the sky clear, the water chestnut sings in the night, and the old man Lianwa is frolicking.
The rare beauty, but the two were not in the mood to appreciate it, and walked out of a very bustling and crowded street.There is a large lake in front of me.
The lake is calm, but the lake is vast.It's not like being in the city.Qing'an City has a large area, but the area of the city wall is not large, because there are many lakes with a larger area around it, which serve as natural barriers.This lake is just southwest of Qing'an City.When Qing'an City was still a few scattered small towns before many dynasties, it was built according to these lakes.
There is a small island in the lake, which is very close to the shore. On the island is a very luxurious building with flying eaves and vermilion pavilions.The columns carved with white marble on the bridge are also very gorgeous.
Prosperous at that time, famous all over the world
Kuzhilou.
Even Qin Yuanshan and Yin Hanjiang, who are newcomers to the rivers and lakes, have heard of the name of Kuzhilou.
How many times have some disciples in the listening school mentioned it.
Kuzhilou, with precious treasures in the world, rare singing and dancing in the world, and stunning beauties in the world.
Even Yin Hanjiang, who can't even recognize the Qinglou Chuguan in Linzhou, knows what such a place does.Qin Yuanshan was afraid that he would learn bad things, so naturally he rarely mentioned it to him, and strictly prohibited these things, but Kuzhilou is well-known, so it is very difficult not to know about it.
Qin Yuanshan, who has always been upright and doesn't have much affection for these places, wants to leave at will.
Yin Hanjiang also stepped forward to leave, but suddenly grabbed Qin Yuanshan's sleeve, strode quickly, and squeezed into a boat by the lake.
Qin Yuanshan turned around in a hurry, only to realize that the disciples of the Dancheng sect he met today were asking some passers-by where he didn't want to.Panicked, he casually stuffed a few taels of silver to the boatman, and hurriedly squeezed into the boat tent.
Seeing that it was getting farther and farther away from the shore, it was only then that he was distracted and found that the boat was full of men, which is easy to explain, but a few of them got together and were chatting excitedly;
"Today is the day when Ms. Shu Chan hangs out her cards once a month. Even Master Luo has to play the music herself. Ms. Shu Chan personally selects the guests to enter the curtain this time. Tonight, the entrance fee of Kuzhilou may be doubled again. gone."
"That's not right, what's more, Luo Qinshi, even though he's just a luthier, with that appearance, according to my cousin, even Miss Shu Chan can't compare to him. It's still early. It will rise even more later, anyway. , the money is nothing to Mr. Xu."
"Where is it? But it's true. In this poor and childish building, how can you have no family background. Let's not talk about such a beautiful woman as Shu Chan, just an ordinary bustard in the building singing *, it is not ordinary people who can affordable."
It was only then that the two discovered that apart from the long bridge in the middle, these boats were also for people to go to the Kuzhilou.
Now both of them are a little at a loss, but it is easier to be discovered when they go back now. At this time, all the guests enter the Kuzhilou, and few come out, so they can only go in first.
Fortunately, the two of them brought enough money in the secret way many years ago, and they also took it with them when they fled this time.
After paying the entrance fee, he entered the Kuzhilou.Only then did I discover the extravagance and prosperity of the Kuzhilou.
Porcelain potted plants, screen carved beams, silk brocade.All the enjoyment objects that can catch the eye are here.The wealthy businessmen all found seats downstairs or upstairs and sat down in compartments. Yin Hanjiang and Qin Yuanshan sat in the corner with simple clothes and gray faces, looking out of place.
Listening to the conversation between the two people on the boat just now, it seems that there is an oiran listed today, so there are not many Yingying and Yanyan in the lobby.Only a few bustards sat beside the guests, quietly making tea and drinking.
The two sat there uncomfortably.There are only some snacks and tea that have been set up, because there is no order, so there is no woman to serve.After a while, the curtain on the stage in the middle of the lobby was pulled open.
On the stage, a woman is sitting holding a pipa, wearing a white embroidered flower tube top, her snow-white breasts are ready to show, she is wearing a lychee red brocade Bixialuo, and her slender waist is tied tightly by a milky white bottom flashing green double-ring four-core Ruyi belt. Even more insecure.A pair of beautiful eyes swept away, even though she was glamorous, she was still intoxicated by the love of many prodigal sons in the audience.
Compared to Su Xinxin's comeliness and the gentleness of the mysterious woman in the inn that day, this woman is charming with a tinge.
The whole audience suddenly fell silent, she flicked her bare hands lightly, revealing a section of snow-white forearm.
The big strings are noisy like torrential rain, and the small strings are like whispers.Caocao is full of mixed bullets, big and small pearls fall on the jade plate.Guan Yingyu's flower bottom is slippery, and it is difficult to fall under the flowing ice of Youyan Spring.
Rao Qin Yuanshan, Yin Hanjiang couldn't help but listen when he bumped in by mistake like this. At the same time, he guessed that this girl might be the Shu Tang that the two of them talked about. When they were in Wenxi, they also heard by chance that the girl Shu Tang from Kuzhilou Peerless youth, still good at pipa.
Lyrical thread, difficult to entangle.
It is indeed a name as charming and beautiful as this woman's appearance.
At the end of the song, the whole room was silent, the woman's face was still cold, she just stood up and leaned slightly, the overly full white of her chest caused a gasp.Then Gui Nu took over the pipa, and Niao Na stepped down from the stage.
People just woke up like a dream, but a young man came up on the stage.He was said to be a teenager, but he was actually only eleven or twelve years old. He was dressed in a red satin robe and had a pigtail tied behind his head.Although his features were clear, he carried an adult-like indifference and stability.
"Miss Shu Chan personally selects guests in the Kuzhi Building today, and you all have fun on your own. When Miss Shu Chan chooses a young master or master to be the guest of tonight, Tang Yi naturally invites this distinguished guest upstairs to meet Miss Shu Chan. Spend the Spring Festival together.”
The young man's soft voice uttered these words, but it was actually cold.However, the guests in the building did not lose their enthusiasm at all.After the boy named Tang Yi went upstairs, several bustards came up on the stage one after another to sing, even if it was a male sword dance, his soft figure attracted frequent applause from the crowd.
Someone at the next table got interested and pulled a bustard on his lap on the spot, laughing and drinking.Seeing Yin Hanjiang and Qin Yuanshan sitting on pins and needles, although they pretended to be calm, Yin Hanjiang's insides were already a mess, and he took a few sips of tea indiscriminately, only after drinking did he realize it was wine, and his cheeks gradually turned red.
At this time, Tang Yi suddenly descended from the side stairs, because the stairs were blocked behind a landscape screen, not many people noticed.
Qin Yuanshan was looking around helplessly, trying to ignore the gradual laughter and coquettishness at the next table, but found that Tang had been coming to their table, and tugged on Yin Hanjiang's sleeve in a hurry, but Tang Yi had already stood in front of the table.
"These two young masters." Tang Yi said, at this time many people have noticed this corner, casting surprised and displeased eyes, but Tang Yi did not show any disdain because of the embarrassment on the faces and clothes of the two. look.just went on to say;
"Miss Shu Chan is waiting for the two young masters upstairs."
Yin and Qin were indeed shocked by this incident, and there were so many people in the building at this time, and they were running for their lives. Besides, when a girl saw them, it made the two people who had never seen the world feel a shiver in their hearts. I'm afraid my face will burn soon.Yin Hanjiang was in a hurry to get wise, and hurriedly evaded and said;
"Cough...the two of us didn't bring enough silver taels."
That Tang Yi was not angry, just went on to say;
"Miss Shu Chan invites the two of you to meet, it's better not to save Miss Shu's face."
Seeing that the two still wanted to refuse, Tang Yi said, "If the two of you want to win Miss Shu's face here, tomorrow you will surely become talking points in every teahouse and restaurant in Qing'an City."
After he said this, Yin Hanjiang had no choice but to try his best to look calm and went upstairs with Qin Yuanshan who had a sluggish face.
However, when Tang Yi went up to the second floor, he didn't stop. He passed the corridor between the buildings, walked through another building, went to the back, and went around for a few sections. Yin Hanjiang didn't remember either. After staying there, we were taken to another building.
After going up the wooden stairs again, he stopped in front of a beautifully carved wooden door exuding a faint woody fragrance.
Tang Yi knocked lightly on the door a few times, and the warm candlelight hit the faces of the two of them through the rice paper on the door.A figure appeared behind that, and the door was gently opened, it was Shu Chan.
Shu Chan glanced at Tang Yi, but said, "Boss Tang, please take this young master to the next door to rest for a while." Tang Yi understood, and led Qin Yuanshan away, Yin Hanjiang only felt that the woman's slender arms and the large snow-white chest There was nowhere to place his gaze, he felt something was wrong, and wanted to call Qin Yuanshan to stop, but in an instant the woman grabbed her arm and pulled her into the room.
What made Yin Hanjiang even more disturbed was that the strength to pull him was definitely not something a delicate woman could have.
He stood by the door, groping for the dagger hidden in the overly capacious robe, full of vigilance.But Shu Chan walked behind the screen with graceful steps.
