()"Yanyu Lake Yanyu Building, E'e pink makeup as a window. The jade hand has exhausted the affairs of the world, and he is drunk and sorrowful. ”

What this poem is talking about is the most famous brothel in Wucheng, Yanyu Building.

The best and most famous scenery in Wucheng is actually in the north city, that is, Yanyu Lake, Yanyu Lake has a vast area, the lake water is blue and quiet, the willows on the lakeside are still in the air, if it is the spring rainy season, the rain silk falls on the water surface, it looks like smoke and fog from a distance, there is a kind of beauty that makes people soft and soft, this is also the origin of the name of Yanyu Lake.

But the beauty of Yanyu Lake is not in a season, but it is good in summer and summer, beautiful in autumn and autumn, beautiful in winter, such a beautiful place, it was originally a poetry and painting of Sao people and inkmen, and the best place for the ladies in the pavilion to go out to find Fang, but I don't know when, it gradually changed the taste.

Since the first green building is located on the lakeside, slowly the Yanyu Lake area has become a flower street willow lane, a place for the prodigal son to seek joy, every day after dusk, the lanterns are hung high everywhere, the lights are brilliant, the song and dance are leveled, the warbler and the swallow language, the extreme liveliness of the peaceful and prosperous era is performed.

The two most famous brothels by Yanyu Lake are Yanyu Lou and the other is Red Sleeve Move.

Both of them are beautiful and numerous, and they are tough in the background and take the lead on the shore of Yanyu Lake. It is said that Yanyu Lou has the background of rivers and lakes, and the red sleeves have the background of the palace, which are all things that others cannot provoke at will, just like the Fang family is used to being dominant in Wucheng, and they dare not offend lightly, so even if the Zuichun Building controlled by the Fang family is on the shore of Yanyu Lake, it can only be regarded as a second-rate place.

Although the two go hand in hand, there is also a difference, the Yanyu Building is full of Qingqi people, entertaining people with vocal music, and selling art without selling oneself, but the red sleeves are real Qinglou.

The poem says that "the jade hand is full of human affairs, drunk and sorrowful", that is, this meaning, the women in the Yanyu Building are not only beautiful, but also everyone has good skills, or playing the piano, or plucking the zither, or playing the flute, etc., and the song is novel, the music can reach the meaning, straight into the hearts of the people, their songs are not all cheerful, there is that mournful, to the emotional place to make people listen to it is almost sad but people are intoxicated and do not want to wake up.

Therefore, Yanyulou is the most loved by scholars and scholars and other elegant people, often go together to drink and listen to music, and be proud to be able to get the top brand Wanyue personally caress the music, if you can listen to it once, you will talk about it for a long time, and you can also win a lot of envy among your partners.

After Liu Qin listened to what Changsheng heard about Yanyu Building, her curiosity increased instead of decreasing, and from the woman named Hongjing, she felt that Yanyu Building was unusual.

If she was born in her previous life, such a woman with both beauty and skill would stand at the pinnacle of life, and be watched and admired by everyone, maybe she is still one of her "fans". But in this ancient period, branded as a prostitute, no matter how noble it is, it still has to be abandoned by the world.

Jiang Li heard Liu Qin say that he was going to Yanyu Tower, no matter how he didn't agree, it was about time for the Qinglou to open its doors to welcome guests, if he encountered something unbearable, how would he explain it to his aunt. He naturally didn't know that in Liu Qin's eyes, the Qinglou Shenma was just a trivial matter, he had never seen anything in his previous life, and photos of the three-point bare butt abounded, not to mention that it was just some flirting scenes.

Under Liu Qin's soft grinding and hard bubbles, Jiang Li reluctantly agreed, but put forward the request that he could only go in the morning, and there were no guests in the morning, Jiang Li considered it like this. He couldn't go on this day, so Liu Qin could only wait patiently for the next rest day to come.

Five days later, Liu Qin finally realized her dream of a half-day tour of the ancient Qinglou.

In addition to Jiang Li, there were also Lei Hu and Changxing Changsheng. Xiao Wu didn't know what was awkward, since the last time he went back from the shop, his expression was even colder, he only practiced martial arts every day, and no one cared about him, Liu Qin was also cold and indifferent, which made Liu Qin very inexplicable, although he wanted to untie his heart knot as soon as possible, but considering that the speed was not enough, he had to put him aside for the time being.

Changsheng explored the way in advance, and naturally he led the way.

From North Street to the southwest, the carriage is a wide avenue all the way, the road surface is smooth, the flowers and trees on the roadside are Fusu, and the scenery that falls in the eyes is no less than that of the East City and the West City, which completely subverts the impression of the North City with low and dilapidated houses and narrow and uneven roads left in Liu Qin's heart.

Estimating that he was about to reach Yanyu Lake, Liu Qin lifted a corner of the curtain again, looked out, and saw two neat rows of houses on both sides of the road, both of which were two-story structures, with green tiles and cornices, light yarn flying, and the decoration was very gorgeous. The two lanterns at the door are playing their own signboards, such as "Lixiangyuan" and "Fanghua Building", because it is morning, the door of the building is closed, and occasionally you can see one or two pink peach blossoms dangling upstairs.

The carriage continued to move forward, passing through this flower street, and saw the vast and endless Yanyu Lake in the distance.

The willows hang low, the lake is not alarmed, and only ripples when the wind blows. The sun hung far away in the sky, like a yellow flatbread, with no temperature, and the wind blessed by the coldness of the lake rushed in, making Liu Qin shiver smartly, and hurriedly threw down the curtain.

Suddenly, I heard Changsheng outside say, "Childe, it's here." ”

Several people got off the carriage in turn, Liu Qin was hugged by Jiang Li, just one glance, she was stunned, so beautiful!

What appeared before her was not a house, but a huge painting boat, three stories high, the lower part of the boat submerged in the water, and the two ends were upturned in the shape of a crescent moon.

The three-story boat is also extremely luxurious, with bright red lacquer columns and green carved window lattices, and the strong color contrast not only does not have the slightest sense of vulgarity, but has an indescribable beauty. The revolving escalator, the swirling verandah, the carved railing, the whole building is carved and painted everywhere, with the green glazed octagonal cornices at the top, as if it is a Yaochi palace that fell into the world by mistake.

There is still some distance from the shore, and a gangplank that can be used by two people in parallel is on the boat at one end and the shore at the other, which is the only way to find Fang.

Changsheng was about to go forward to report something, remembered something, returned to Liu Qin's side, pointed to the right direction and whispered: "Childe, look over there, that's the red sleeve move." ”

Following the direction of Changsheng's point, on the right side of the lake is a small three-story building, which can still be felt in the shade of weeping willows. Then wander around, only to find that there is a small building or a painting boat at a distance on the lakeside, which is scattered, each with its own posture, looking at it from a distance, it is beautiful, it is really a fairyland on earth.

It's a shame that such a beautiful place is a filthy place.

They stopped in front of the painting boat, which had attracted the attention of the building, only to see the two gorgeous doors of the Yanyu Building being pulled open with a bang, and a little girl in the general corner ran over the gangplank with her shoes on her feet, and when she arrived in front of them, she looked at Jiang Li and Liu Qin, the two young masters who were obviously still children, and said: "Everyone, please go back, our Yanyu Building is closed in the morning." ”
