Chapter 100: The Four Evils of Chang'an City
On a piece of land next to the Weishui tributary, the sound of chickens and dogs barking came early in the morning, Li Kuan adjusted the temperature of several conservatories, and let the new eunuch in charge of guarding the conservatory learn how to read the thermometer, there was nothing special for the time being.
The papermaking workshop is still under construction, the waterwheel has already revealed its embryonic form, and the wood and bamboo are soaked in Weishui, and there is nothing to do in a short time except waiting.
Sitting under the pomegranate tree in the palace and taking a nap, looking at the spring in the garden, Li Kuan's heart suddenly warmed up.
"Dengshan, I heard that you used to be the most popular with the girls in the Qinglou, what has happened to the Qinglou in Chang'an City recently?"
"The prince said he was laughing!" Chu Suiliang smiled, it is not a matter for a literati to go to the Qinglou, on the contrary, this can be said to be one of the daily lives of the literati, "The Zixia girl of Tianxiang Pavilion is said to be preparing to retire, and she is the most popular girl in Chang'an City during this time." ”
"Zixia of Tianxiang Pavilion?" Li Kuan didn't expect to hear this name from Chu Suiliang's mouth, the scene of the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting is still vivid, this girl, in the future generations, it will definitely kill all the first-line stars.
"Does the prince know Miss Zixia?" Chu Suiliang only knew that the red leaf girl in Yihong Mansion took advantage of Li Kuan's "once the sea was difficult to water, except that Wushan is not a cloud", and she was very out of the limelight, but he didn't expect Li Kuan to know Zixia of Tianxiang Pavilion.
"Then we'll go to Tianxiang Pavilion today!"
……
Tianxiang Pavilion is located on the bank of the Qujiang River, and some of the buildings are suspended on the river like hanging towers.
The antique building is very recognizable, as the premier Fengyue place in Chang'an, the building of Tianxiang Pavilion is also from the hands of famous artists.
"Brother Cheng, it turns out that Tianxiang Pavilion is like this." In the corner of the lobby on the first floor, there were three young men, one of whom was tall and looked around curiously.
"I said Fang Yiai, can you have a little interest, sit down for me, and if you do this again, I won't bring you here in the future." Cheng Chumo felt that Fang Yiai had embarrassed him, and he looked very faceless.
"Hehe, I guess I don't need us to bring it next time, and I will secretly come over by myself."
"Brother Wei Chi, when will I go out to play and not call you?" Fang Yiai looked at Yu Chihuan innocently.
"You pull me down, you pull me up every time you get into trouble, so that I am taught a lesson by my grandfather every once in a while. It's like you, with your mother's protection, the room doesn't dare to do anything to you! ”
"A loving mother is a loser, don't be envious of Wei Chihuan, you see that the bereaved love is called the four evils of Chang'an City at a young age, do you think it is very glorious?" Cheng Chumo saw that the Zixia girl on the stage had not yet appeared, so he simply chatted with a few brothers.
The relationship between Cheng Yanjin, Fang Xuanling and Wei Chi Jingde is very good, they are all old generals of the Qin Palace, so several children of the same age have also grown up together since childhood, and the relationship is irreversible.
The forces of the three of them are combined, and there are really not many people in Chang'an City who dare to call out casually, although they have not done anything hurtful, but they have not done anything less in fights and brawls.
Slowly, there was a saying among the nobles about the four evils of Chang'an City.
Li Kuan, Cheng Chumo, Wei Chihuan, Fang Yiai.
There is really no fuel-efficient lamp, even if the county magistrate of Chang'an County arrests them, and it is not a matter of killing people and setting fires, they can often only be released obediently.
"Humph! I envy what he does, he is stupid for everything except brute force. ”
"Yu Chihuan, who do you say is stupid?" Fang Yiai listened to Yu Chihuan's words and quit.
In Fang Yiai's opinion, except for his aunt, who can say that he is stupid, no one else can be.
If you don't accept it, just do it!
"Hey! I said, you guys, what are you doing here? I don't know when, next to the position near the platform on the second floor, there were a few sons, and when they heard Cheng Chumo shouting, they threw a sentence and stabbed it over with disdain.
"Du He, you are really promising, you follow the eldest grandson like a fart all day long, if Du Xiangquan knows, you will definitely vomit blood angrily." Cheng Chumo saw that Du He was scolding himself, and immediately fought back unceremoniously.
Anyway, Cheng Chumo, the children of military generals, and the children of civil officials such as Changsun Chong, have always been at odds.
Of course, the exception is the house bequest!
"Good birds are perched on trees, where is what you, a person with developed limbs and a simple mind, can understand, I don't bother to see it with you." It's not the first time Du He has quarreled with Cheng Chumo.
"Forget it, don't be like a rough person, you don't have to lower your style. Soon Miss Zixia will come out to offer the piano, so let's let them go. "Eldest Sun Chong is coming to Zixia again today, and even with the determination to become a benevolent person if he doesn't succeed.
During this time, there were rumors outside that Zixia was going to prepare to redeem herself, and Changsun Chong felt that his hope had come.
At the same time, Li Kuan and Chu Suiliang also came to the door of Tianxiang Pavilion, and Wang Xuanwu and Xi Junmai followed behind with big swords like left and right protectors.
Although the turtle man at the door did not recognize Li Kuanlai, he did know Chu Suiliang, and when he saw that Chu Suiliang was always half a step behind the young man, he naturally knew that a big man was coming.
"Two Langjun, please inside, it's a coincidence that you are here today, Miss Zixia is about to appear to present the piano to everyone."
Chu Suiliang casually threw out a piece of broken silver, "Reward you, why don't you hurry up and find a seat for our family Langjun." ”
Tianxiang Pavilion covers a large area, and the lobby on the first floor of this main building is also very wide, but when Li Kuan and the others entered, they found that it was basically full of people.
There are young people who are about the same as Li Kuan, middle-aged wealthy businessmen in their thirties and forties, old scholars who are full of hair, and ninth-rate figures in the Tang Dynasty, it is estimated that they can all be found here.
"Lord Wang, it seems that we are really here today, I have rarely seen Tianxiang Pavilion full of friends so early." Chu Suiliang swept around the lobby and showed a slightly surprised expression.
Li Kuan came to Qinglou for the first time after crossing over, and he was also a little curious about what the style of "heaven and earth" in this era was.
In the lobby, there are tables and chairs, most of which are leaning against the wall, and there are ink treasures on the wall that I don't know which famous artist left them.
"I see that Tianxiang Pavilion covers a very wide area, except for this building, what are the others for?" After Li Kuan sat down, he asked curiously.
"Lord Wang, some girls are good at staying guests......" Chu Suiliang showed an expression that all men understand.
All right!
Unexpectedly, a dignified prime minister-level figure entered Tianxiang Pavilion and immediately turned into an old hooligan!
"Miss Zixia is out!"
With the shouting of the turtle gong, the lobby immediately became lively.
