Chapter 12: Oiran

"I was greedy for the scenery of Hojing, and I visited all the way here, but I couldn't find the way back, so I had to stop here for a while, ready to ask passers-by. ”

Facing the stopped carriage and the gentle female voice coming from inside, Jiang Chen replied politely with a smile on his face.

In the two hours that he has been walking along the way, he has not been accosted by young girls and soft young women once or twice, and he can be said to be familiar with it.

If he hadn't been a newcomer and didn't know much about Hojing's situation, he might have accepted the invitation of a young girl and a mature beauty, and formed a short-lived love affair by the Yunhuai River that woke up without a trace.

There is no way, God has given him such a face, and he must take on the corresponding responsibility.

Although he vowed to smear the empress's liver and brain, and make a cow and a horse, he could be a cow and a horse...... You have to give grass too, don't you?

Since Her Majesty the Empress does not give grass, then of course he, a cow and horse, can only go out to take care of the swaying weeds in the pickaxe capital.

With great power comes great responsibility.

The Americans are not deceitful.

"That's the case, it seems that Childe has just come to the pickaxe capital not long ago. The gentle voice came again, "Dare to ask Gongzi's surname?"

"Don't be expensive, your surname is Jiang. Jiang Chen replied gently.

After Jiang Chen said his surname, there was a brief loss of voice in the carriage.

In the next moment, the curtain of the carriage was lifted by his bare hands, and a delicate figure stepped out of it.

The woman who got off the car smiled lightly, wearing a green gauze, the green silk that reached the hips was tied up with a hairpin, her beautiful eyes were rippling, her face was soft, and she seemed to have infinite affection.

Even Jiang Chen was slightly amazed at the first sight of her.

Among the people he has seen, if you really want to compare, I am afraid that only the empress in the imperial city can barely overpower the woman in front of her, even if it is the same amazing cold beauty, Chu Qing, the admiral of the nine gates of the imperial city, may not be able to outperform the woman in front of him.

"It turned out that Jiang Gongzi was in front of him, and the concubine was rude. The woman saluted, and her cherry lips opened lightly, "The concubine is willow and has seen Jiang Gongzi." ”

"I've seen Miss Liu. ”

Jiang Chen also returned the favor.

Liu Shuyanlian moved lightly, and naturally walked to Jiang Chen's side, smiling gently: "Although the pickaxe capital is big, it is still easy to find the way back, and it is still early now, since Jiang Gongzi has traveled all the way to the Yunhuai River, wouldn't it be a pity to go back like this?"

"Today, on the Yunhuai River, it is the Yunhuai Poetry Meeting once a month, which is very lively, if Jiang Gongzi has Yaxing, you might as well let Shuyan take you to watch it?"

After speaking, Liu Shuyan's beautiful eyes looked at Jiang Chen's eyes, as if they were implying expectation.

Hearing this invitation, Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment, and then smiled.

"Since Miss Liu invited, it is better to be respectful than to obey her fate. ”

In this world, there are not as many entertainment items that can make people stay at home all the time in the previous life.

Now going back to Wuyi Lane, that is, going back to lie on the corpse, how can it be compared to traveling hand in hand with a beautiful woman?

This is also to understand the grassroots situation in Hojing and pave the way for participating in the government in the future!

Jiang Chen followed Liu Shuyan's side with peace of mind.

..................

The ancient rhyme of Lingbo is ten miles of joy, and the wind shakes the painting boat and the rain contains smoke.

The Yunhuai River is ten miles of smoke and waves, the water flow is gentle, and the palace-like painting boats on it swim on the water waves, and I don't know how many literati and ink writers who come and go indulge in it.

Under the leadership of Liu Shuyan, Jiang Chen talked and laughed with her very happily, and after watching a section of the scenery on the banks of the Yunhuai River, he walked on a painting boat near the river.

"Brother Zhang, I'll give you a drink!"

"Brother Jing's article is brilliant, the idea is quite new, and there is progress in the article, if you want to come to this high school!"

In the painting boat, most of them are young people dressed as scholars and literati, sitting casually in twos and threes, or drinking and composing poems, or splashing ink, surrounded by a tulle woman with a good face playing the pipa and guqin, and the atmosphere is quite lively.

As soon as Jiang Chen and Liu Shuyan entered the painting boat, he instantly felt a change in the atmosphere.

The noise around him subsided, and a pair of eyes looked in this direction.

"Miss Smoke, you're here. ”

Soon, two people dressed as stewards greeted them.

Seeing someone coming, Liu Shuyan smiled apologetically at Jiang Chen: "Jiang Gongzi, I forgot to say that this Yunhuai Poetry Club is presided over by the concubine, and now it is not far from the official start, please allow the concubine to be absent for a while." ”

"Miss Liu doesn't have to be polite. ”

Although Jiang Chen was a little puzzled by the strange atmosphere in his heart, he still didn't rush to ask, just nodded.

He chose a small window seat and sat down, ready to slowly start enjoying the scenery on the Yunhuai River.

But not long after he sat down, a young man came over with a glass of wine: "This brother Tai, Yang Zai, who is in the lower country, I don't know the name of Brother Tai?"

The young man was dressed in a blue robe, his face was slightly round, and he looked quite amiable.

"In Xia Jiang Chen, I have seen Brother Yang. ”

Someone came over to say hello, and Jiang Chen also raised his wine glass and saluted him.

"It turned out to be Brother Jiang, Brother Jiang is really handsome and heroic, no wonder he can get the love of the girl who dreams of smoke!"

The young man, Yang Zai, was quite familiar, sat down directly opposite Jiang Chen, and showed him a meaningful smile.

"Oh, I don't know where this girl comes from?" Jiang Chen asked, holding his wine glass.

"Brother Jiang doesn't know?"

Yang Zai was surprised at first, and then relieved: "Listening to Brother Jiang's accent, it seems to be from the direction of the East China Sea and the land of Wuyue, I'm afraid it hasn't been long since I arrived in the capital, so it's no wonder." ”

"Then I'll talk to Brother Jiang!"

He took a sip of wine, cleared his throat, and then smiled, giving Jiang Chen a look that all men understand.

"The capital is the best place in the world, how can there be no wind and snow and moon? And this Yunhuai River, is a first-class fireworks land, during which the women, each is able to sing and dance, know the book and etiquette of the people, this warm jade in the arms, red sleeves add fragrance, tsk, I don't know how many literati and ink writers have been attracted. ”

"Oh......" Jiang Chen heard this, and finally understood what these painting boats on the Yunhuai River were for.

After getting off work, I finally have a place to go!

He Jiang Chen is also a literati scholar, and he likes to oppose and discuss articles with his colleagues the most.

In the future, this Yunhuai River can come more and more, not for anything else, mainly to discuss poetry and piano skills with the young ladies.

"And on this Yunhuai River, there are eight people who are known as 'Yunhuai Bayan'!"

Yang Zai continued to talk excitedly.

"These eight people, each of them is the best in the world, and they also have amazing talents, all of them are excellent in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, I don't know how many people want to kiss Fangze but can't. ”

"And the Smoke Girl is one of them!"

Speaking of this, Yang Zai lowered his voice slightly: "Brother Jiang, I'm afraid that many people in this painting boat have opinions about you!"

"What do you mean by that?"

Jiang Chen became interested.

Everyone is a prostitute...... They are all people who have come to learn culture, shouldn't they say to each other that good people are safe in their lives? Why do you have an opinion about him?

Yang Zai smiled and said: "Brother Jiang doesn't know, the other seven people, although their vision is quite high, it is difficult for ordinary people to enter their eyes, but there are always a few talented and noble people who can kiss Fangze, but the girl has never been out of the cabinet, the first guest of this girl to enter the scene, who doesn't want to be here?"

"Today's monthly Yunhuai Poetry Club is hosted by Miss Shuyan, and these people are all riveting their strength, and they want to get the favor of Miss Shuyan at the poetry meeting, maybe they will be able to come out on top. ”

"When Brother Jiang first came, he was so close to Miss Shuyan, how could he not make people jealous?"

Yang Zai pointed and looked in a certain direction.
