Chapter Thirty-Eight: Oiran
After Xia Ying agreed on everything, in the afternoon, in the small courtyard, planning how to train people, he wanted to follow his original training method, but it was not very good in this era, according to the training of this era, although it was okay, but it always felt that something was missing, and it could only be used in combination with the two eras.
When the lights were about to come on, Xia Ziang came to his small courtyard, his eyes were strange and mysterious, and he said, "Big brother, I wonder if you are free tonight?" β
Xia Ziang is now regarded as Rong Tianyuan's subordinate, and he is still his sister's fiancΓ©, so he changed his previous title and changed his name to eldest brother.
Hearing Xia Ziang's words, Rong Tianyuan was puzzled: "Yes, what's wrong?" β
"Hehe, since there is, it's easy to do." Xia Ziang didn't say anything, just smiled mysteriously and said, "Let's go, take you to have a fun game, and meet a few people by the way." β
However, Rong Tianyuan did not agree to go, but asked suspiciously, "Fun?" What's so funny? Who to meet? β
"I'll know this when I arrive, and now I won't be mysterious to tell you." Xia Ziang smiled mysteriously and did not answer Rong Tianyuan's question, because if he said this, the latter would not go.
Seeing Xia Ziang like this, Rong Tianyuan said impatiently: "Tell me quickly, what is it, if you don't say it, I won't go." β
"Hehe, you don't care about this for the time being." When Xia Ziang heard this, he pulled Rong Tianyuan up and said as he walked: "I've said everything, and when you get there, you'll know what it is." β
The two went out of the Xia Mansion together, and Rong Tianyuan was pulled by Xia Ziang and slowly walked towards the shore of West Lake.
The night gradually shrouded the whole city of Hangzhou, and there is no sign of reduction of pedestrians on the street, and the lively atmosphere gradually dilutes the night of the sky.
During the day, the West Lake is famous for the water of the West Lake and the Su Causeway, which everyone knows and everyone knows. At night, the West Lake is famous for the lantern boats, which are famous throughout Hangzhou, and it should be said that they are famous throughout Zhejiang.
The painting boats on the lake, almost all of them are hung with colorful lights, and the moonlight reflects each other on the lake, and those who want to swim on the surface of the West Lake in the evening, as well as those who are looking for fun, must take the flower boat as fast.
Xia Ziang and Rong Tianyuan, when they arrived at the West Lake, Rong Tianyuan saw two familiar people, Liu Yang and Liu Feixi, and beside these two people, there was also an extraordinary-looking man in brocade clothes.
When the three of them saw Xia Ziang and Rong Tianyuan coming, they all stepped forward and saluted, Liu Yang looked at Rong Tianyuan and said with a smile: "Hehe, I didn't expect Brother Tianyuan to come, this is unexpected." β
"I wasn't forced here by this kid." Rong Tianyuan heard Liu Yang's words, patted Xia Ziang's head, and said helplessly.
Seeing the helplessness on Rong Tianyuan's face, Liu Yang said with a smile: "Hehe, Brother Tianyuan, let me tell you, if you come, with your intelligence, you will definitely not regret it." β
"Hopefully." However, Rong Tianyuan only said lightly.
"Okay, let's not talk about this, I'll introduce Brother Tianyuan."
Liu Yang didn't care about Rong Tianyuan's expression, and pointed to the brocade-clothed boy beside him and said, "Brother Tianyuan, this is called Fei Ruan, and he is also one of our five talents, born in a family of generals. β
This Fei Ruan's family is also a person with a great reputation in Zhejiang, and his grandfather was a general guarding the border pass, but because of the war with Mongolia, he was unfortunately seriously injured by a secret arrow and died within a few years.
But the amazing thing is that this Fei Ruan's father is a civil official, who is a four-grade official in Zhejiang, and does not inherit his Lao Tzu's inheritance, and this Fei Ruan was taught by his father to be a great talent, but he inherited his grandfather's tradition, and he likes to fight and kill, but because of his father, there is no way to go to the battlefield.
After Liu Yang introduced Fei Ruan to Rong Tianyuan, he immediately introduced Rong Tianyuan to Fei Ruan.
After Liu Yang's voice fell, Fei Ruan looked at Rong Tianyuan in disbelief and said in disbelief: "What? Are you going to allow Tianyuan? Just Rong Tianyuan, who did five peerless masterpieces in a row in Juxian Tower? Is it Miss Xia Wanyi's fiancΓ© Rong Tianyuan? β
"yes, what's wrong?" Rong Tianyuan asked strangely when he saw this Fei Ruan's expression.
"Ah, I finally saw you today."
Fei Ruan said excitedly: "Do you know that the five songs you made that day can be called immortal works, and now they have been framed by the boss of Juxian Tower. β
"There are even people who pay high-end money to buy a poem made by your Juxian Building, but the owner of this limited building didn't buy it. There is also the fact that now the whole of Zhejiang is rumored that you are a fairy and a poet, and many bigwigs want to meet you. β
"Huh? Watt? Higher-order purchase of the verses I made? Hearing what Fei Ruan said, he was immediately curious, looked at Fei Ruan and asked, "How much is my poem?" β
"Huh?" Hearing Rong Tianyuan's question, Fei Ruan looked strange and said, "Don't you know?" Or is it to tell you everybody? β
"Know what? What to tell? I haven't even been out of the door for the past two days, so I don't know anything. Rong Tianyuan shook his head, indicating that he didn't know about it.
Seeing that Rong Tianyuan didn't look like a fake, he had no choice but to say: "Your poem, the lowest is nearly 50,000 taels of silver, the highest is nearly 100,000 taels of silver, and there is the Juxian Tower, which is open for free for Brother Tianyuan for one year, I believe that Brother Ziang must know?" β
Hearing this, Rong Tianyuan looked at Xia Ziang, wanting to confirm whether there was such a thing.
Seeing Rong Tianyuan looking over, Xia Ziang nodded and said, "There is such a thing, but after you and your father agreed on things yesterday, you went to draw the blueprints of the red-clothed cannon, and we didn't bother you too much, so we didn't tell you about it." β
Hearing Xia Ziang's words, Rong Tianyuan understood what was going on, and now he was thinking in his heart, if he didn't just sell poetry to make a fortune, anyway, he would have a thousand poems, and there were also eight hundred.
While Rong Tianyuan was thinking about it, Fei Ruan continued: "In addition to this, it was also rumored yesterday that Miss Xia Wanyi had promised to marry you, and those talented people who liked Miss Xia Wanyi were all envious, jealous and hateful, and regarded you as the number one enemy. β
"But fortunately, there are not many people who know Brother Tianyuan, otherwise they might have been surrounded by those people now." Fei Ruan said this, with a little schadenfreude.
However, when Rong Tianyuan heard this, he didn't have too many expressions, because this was all in his expectation, after all, Xia Wanyi existed like a fairy in the hearts of many people, and naturally there were many suitors.
The group was talking and walking in one direction, and the more they walked, the more strange Rong Tianyuan felt in his heart, where was this going to play.
Naturally, he couldn't help the curiosity in his heart, looked at Xia Ziang and asked, "Ziang, where are we going?" β
"Hehe, didn't Brother Ziang tell Brother Tianyuan? I'm Miaoyukaku. Before Rong Tianyuan's voice fell, before Xia Ziang could speak, Fei Ruan was the first to speak.
When Rong Tianyuan heard this place, he didn't know what it was at all, so he asked suspiciously, "Go to Miaoyu Pavilion?" What is this place? β
However, as soon as Fei Ruan said it, Xia Ziang secretly glanced at the former, signaling him to stop talking. Fei Ruan didn't understand why Xia Ziang didn't let him say it, but he nodded faintly.
After hearing the latter words, Fei Ruan said with a smile: "Hehe, I will know this when Tian Yuan arrives, according to Liu Yang's words before, I will definitely not make Tian Yuan regret it." β
After the five of them were walking for a while, in Rong Tianyuan's curious heart, they finally came to a stop in front of an attic.
The attic has forty percent high, the decoration is gorgeous, the colorful flag is flying, the lantern is hung high, it is bright and bright, magnificent, in its frieze eaves, there is a plaque hanging, there are three big characters on the plaque, "Miaoyu Pavilion".
This is the Miaoyu Pavilion, and from the Miaoyu Pavilion, from the inside, there is the sound of men's lewd laughter and women's coquettish laughter.
When Rong Tianyuan saw this, his face suddenly fell, this is Miaoyu Pavilion? How is this such a place? How is it a green house? He finally knows now, why didn't Xia Ziang say it, the relationship is so fun, it is Qinglou?
Rong Tianyuan looked at Xia Ziang and said expressionlessly: "You explain this to me, Ziang." β
"Huh? This ......" Xia Ziang saw Rong Tianyuan like this, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "During this time of this Miaoyu Pavilion, there are three Oirans from Jinling, Jiangsu, and these three Oiran. is not only beautiful, but also intelligent, and has amazing skills, and these three people are still clean, and they are all people who sell their art but not their bodies. β
"But that's not the point, the point is that these three Oiran are in Miaoyu Pavilion, and a poetry meeting has been held in the past two days, asking the young talents of the entire Hangzhou to compete with them in poetry, as well as to guide the piano and music poems and paintings."
"This yesterday was the first day, and although there were a lot of people yesterday, all of them were defeated, and they also said that this is a talented man in Hangzhou, but so, how can we endure such a thing."
"But today is the last day, if we are defeated today, then the faces of our talents in Hangzhou will be lost, if this is spread, this is not to say that we can't even compare with Fengyue women, isn't this saying that we have no one in Hangzhou."
"That's why we met together today, to meet these three Oiran, and with your understanding of poetry, I think we can easily defeat them." Xia Ziang breathed a sigh of relief and explained the reason for Rong Tianyuan, and he was also relieved in his heart.
However, Rong Tianyuan didn't care much about what Xia Ziang said, and asked rhetorically: "Then why don't you explain such a thing to me?" And if your sister knows that I entered the Qinglou, how can I explain this to her? β
After all, Xia Ying only promised Xia Wanyi to him yesterday, and now during this period of time, both of them are in a sensitive period, in order to leave a good impression on each other, especially Rong Tianyuan. Otherwise, it's only the second day, and I went to such a moon-sharing place, and if this spreads, it will be easy to say and not good.
"Ah...... Don't worry about this big brother, only you know about this matter, as long as no one says anything to Sister Yu, my sister won't say anything. β
Hearing Rong Tianyuan's words, Xia Ziang immediately said: "And my sister also knows about this Miaoyufang, even if my sister knows about it at that time, the eldest brother will explain the reason, and the elder sister will understand the eldest brother's behavior." β
