Chapter 239: Attack
The large bell tower on the southwest side rang the bell for three quarters of the unitary hour, and there were still two and a half hours before the subhour. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoLuoyang City is full of lights, connected into a thin line, the galloping carriage splashed bursts of water, passing on the road, Luoshui Bridge side sparkling, from time to time there are all kinds of flags and sails of the world sails to and fro.
Light rain, night, silence before the chase, in the open space in front of the Qinglou, Zhou Ning glanced back at Kou Xu and the others, clasped his hands, and couldn't help but squint his eyes to look at the lights in the distance. After taking Wan Wan's move, her hands were still aching, and in the distance, between the continuous lights, the green building with the Fanghua Pavilion brand was faintly visible. In front of Fanghua Pavilion, there are several large and small carriages, which can be seen that it is the style of one of the largest green buildings in Luoyang City.
Leaving aside the danger in the future, at this time, Zhou Ning felt interesting in his heart, if he was not mistaken, this was the seventh time he had gone to Qinglou in just half a month, and he had even been to Fanghua Pavilion once, and the reason for going was different each time, but it was not very peaceful every time. It's a funny thing to think about.
I went to the Qinglou a few times, but only this time I wanted to go shopping, and I got into trouble with these big forces, so I just didn't care about their big bowl of wine and big pieces of meat waiting here for the time to come, and it was also a great joy in life to see what others could do with them.
"Let's go—"
The three of them laughed and walked towards Fanghua Pavilion without fear.
The three of them are freshly dressed and angry, the appearance is extraordinary, the dragon walks and walks tigers, a few big men who guard the door naturally dare not stop them, enter the gate of Fanghua Pavilion, the main hall that catches the eye is already very interesting, the face is five rooms wide, three rooms are deep, there are spacious corridors on both sides, graceful and magnificent, magnificent.
Under the guidance of the old bustard, Zhou Ning and Kou Xu entered the lobby, and before they reached the middle hall, they heard the sound of silk and bamboo, and there were women singing lyrics and songs inside.
“…… How many times can it kill the wind and rain? Hurried spring and returned. Cherish the long spring and fear that the flowers will bloom early, not to mention the countless reds. Spring and live. Seeing and saying, there is no way back to the end of the world. Complaining about the spring is silent. It's only attentive, painting the eaves and cobwebs, and doing everything you can to get rid of the ......"
The sweet singing voice was immersed in the autumn breeze on the riverside in the evening, and even the well-informed Zhou Ning felt that it was very beautiful.
"This is the new word that the teacher is singing Xin You'an. The three sons are quite blessed tonight, Henan Yin, Kaifuyi and the three kings of Qi are here to feast, and the most popular teacher girl of Fanghua Pavilion and the three flowers of Fanghua will sing the whole process. ”
The old bustard said as he led the way, and it didn't take long for him to enter the atrium on one side. Zhou Ning and Kou Xu sat down in the right corner of the atrium, and their own beautiful maids took off their warm clothes for each of them, and wiped their hands and faces with a towel. As a result of the two fireplaces lit. The hall is warm like spring. Here Zhou Ning had come to Yingzheng's banquet a few days ago, and the furnishings were extremely extravagant, and I thought it was the place where Fanghua Pavilion entertained VIPs.
At this time, most of the people invited by Yang Jun had already arrived, and I heard that it was probably because Yang Jun was appointed as the second sacrifice of the Chongyang Festival this morning, thinking that the position of the prince was already in the bag, so he brought people to celebrate. As the most powerful contender for the position of the crown prince, Yang Yong is still known as a literary name in this plane, and the banquet he organized, most of the invitations were some literati, at this time, some talented people in Luoyang City who came to catch the exam gathered here in twos and threes, and several old men who were quite famous in the literary world pointed out and talked all the way, and also entered the court at this time and sat down. Most of these old men are well-educated people, and occasionally pointing out a few talented people on the side at this moment has benefited them a lot, and they nodded again and again.
Among these people, Zhou Ning knew five or six people, among whom he was more familiar, including Wang Wei, Qin Hui, Qian Qianyi and others, but this situation was special, and if it was not necessary, he would not be in the limelight.
At this time, most people's eyes were focused on the field, but no one noticed their corner. In the middle of the room, an extremely beautiful woman sat playing the piano and singing. The skin is better than snow, bright and graceful, and the appearance is extremely moving, quite the style of a goddess. I think this is the famous master Li. Speaking of which, the monks have their own merits.
In a moment, the poetry meeting here has begun, and several old men and a few gorgeously dressed men sat down in the innermost seats, enjoying the singing and dancing in the venue, and also casually talking to the young people around them about the knowledge of the imperial examination and solving the questions, Zhou Ning listened to it with relish.
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling didn't understand this, so they sat at the table and took some preserved fruits such as Li Xing from the fruit bowl and ate them, listening to their boasting unconsciously. Zhou Ning looked helpless.
"You guys, it's time to read something."
Kou Zhong threw the preserved fruit into his mouth and said lightly: "Wait until you are free, now, tomorrow's sun is what we are most eager to see, and when I survive, I will honestly follow the old master to read his mother's book." ”
Zhou Ning looked at the venue, and Master Li was singing to the second half: "The long door is a long thing, and the good time is wrong." Moth Mei was once jealous. Thousands of dollars buy endowments, who will sue for this situation? Jun Mo dances, you don't see, Yuhuan Feiyan is dust! Idleness is the most bitter! Hugh went to lean on the danger railing, the sun was setting, and the smoke willow was broken, and the intestine......s were broken, "Everyone applauded, the banquet was going on warmly, Qin Hui stood up and showed everyone his poems.
Zhou Ning beamed his voice into a line, and said in a deep voice: "It's not necessarily that there is no way out, the complexity of the current situation in Luoyang is really unique." Now there are several people competing for He's Bi, the first to bear the brunt is Yang Guang, Ying Zheng and Xiang Yu, the three people, among which Yang Guang can be left alone for the time being, Yang Guang has long been in business, only knows how to seek longevity, and fight for face in front of the vassal country, the six doors have greeted me before, and he will not make a move for the time being. Yang Guang, Ying Zheng and Xiang Yu, although they don't seem to have a direct relationship with He's Bi, if they knew that Concubine Xuan would give it to Li Yuan's second son Li Shimin after getting He's Bi, then they would rather have He's Bi in the hands of others, rather than let Li Shimin take advantage of it, in this case, we don't have to face so many different fronts. ”
"That makes sense...... Kou Zhong nodded, "Now that he is eyeing Taiyuan and can raise troops at any time, Li Valve is undoubtedly a great threat, and in such a situation, if Shi Fei Xuan is allowed to obtain and hand over the family bi to Li Shimin, it should be something that they will never allow to happen." “
There was a burst of applause over there, it turned out that Master Li finished singing a song, and hired Tingting to walk down, as one of the Oiran in Luoyang City, Master Li's temperament is still quite elegant, at this time everyone asked her about the program to be performed during the Double Ninth Festival in three days, Master Li smiled: "This...... It's probably a sword dance, and it coincides with Aunt Gongsun coming from the Eastern Capital, and she recently likes Zhou Zhongdao's "Chivalrous Journey", so she ......"
She sang a few lines of "Chivalrous Journey", and the person next to her drew his sword and beat a few beats, and the atmosphere was extremely warm. At this time, someone passed on the words made by Qin Hui, and Master Li hummed a few words along with it, and his voice was extremely soft. Qian Qianyi stood up and said softly: "I also made a poem in the next place, please ask the teacher and the girl to taste it." ”
"Oh, it's a good ......" The poem came over, and Master Li unfolded the paper and sang it out: "Sad to go to Wucheng Road by mistake, with blood and tears, there is no place to wave." Half moon blurred frost a few trees. The purple flute is low and far away, the green warp is bright and extinguished, and the faint sheep car is ...... Sure enough, it's a good word. ”
Qian Qianyi is also quite proud of his lyrics, especially this half-moon blurred frost few trees, which can be called a quatrain, although he suffered a big loss in Zhou Ning a few times before, but this time Zhou Zhongdao is not there, he can be regarded as a big limelight, just now he felt that King Qi also appreciated him.
On the side, Zhou Ning nodded, although this Qian Qianyi is too keen on fame and fortune, but the poetry is still very good. Looking at Kou Zhong, he continued, "So, as long as we can spread the news and release the winner of the He clan that Concubine Xuan has already chosen. ”
Kou Zhong frowned and said, "Why don't you just say that Concubine Xuan chose Li Shimin?" ”
Zhou Ning sighed: "Because I used to be his friend." ”
Xu Ziling's eyes showed appreciation, and he was about to speak, when he suddenly frowned and said, "Someone is coming." ”
When Kou Zhong and Zhou Ning looked at each other, an extremely soft voice said, "What a rare guest, Gongzi Zhou, how can you be a busy person who has time to come to Fanghua Pavilion?" ”
Zhou Ning raised his eyes and saw that the woman looked charming, it was Fu Yaohong, who had seen it several times, and sighed: "Manager Fu is really discerning." ”
At this time, everyone also noticed this, Qian Qianyi's eyes were as if he had seen a ghost, and he was dumbfounded: "You...... How did you end up here? ”
Zhou Ning couldn't hide it, glanced at Fu Yaohong, smiled, and said: "Come uninvited, please King Qi, and all your colleagues don't blame." ”
Yang Xuan said with a smile: "Of course, it is great that Zhou Gongzi can come." Have a seat. ”
At this moment, Xu Ziling beamed his voice into a line and said in a low voice: "Big brother, a strong enemy is coming." ”
As a recent topic in Luoyang City, Zhou Ning also got a lot of attention for a while, Zhou Ning's face was slightly pale, but he still had to start socializing, and after a while, he laughed with the people on the side, Rao is so, his full attention is still focused on the outside of the courtyard.
In the crowd, Qian Qianyi was like sitting on pins and needles, fortunately Zhou Ning did not mean to chant poems and paint, but just listened to them chanting poems with a smile on the side, and occasionally the poems came, and they also commented on each other.
For a moment, "Step! Trample! Trample! There was a sound of footsteps outside, the first one coming from an unreachable distance, the second one had reached the vicinity of the Xingjin Bridge, and by the third time, it sounded clearly outside the main entrance.
Zhou Ning was picking up a poem at this time, which was a "Autumn Nocturne" written by Wang Wei: Gui Lu was born in autumn and the dew was slight, and Qingluo had not changed his clothes. Yinzheng has been diligent for a long time, and he can't bear to return to the empty room.
This poem is excellently done, it is a subtle poem of resentment, and the epilogue is particularly subtle. Someone asked, "What do you think?" ”
The thin curtain was lifted, and footsteps bypassed the delicate screen and walked in.
There are still two hours left at this time.
