The Kaifeng Mansion in Song Tokyo is centered on the palace city, and the city gates form a tic-tac-toe grid structure, and the main road is called "Imperial Road".

There are four "royal roads" in Kaifeng Mansion, one is from Xuande Gate to the south through Zhuque Gate and then to Nanxun Gate; One is from the state bridge to the west through the old Zheng Gate and then to the new Zheng Gate; the third is from the state bridge to the east through the old Song Gate and then to the new Song Gate; The last one is from Miyagi Higashichichi to the north through the old Fengqiu Gate to the new Fengqiu Gate.

Fangxiang Royal Street, about 200 steps wide, the street is extremely wide, both sides are the imperial corridor.

There are also four rivers in the city of Kaifeng Prefecture, which stretch across the entire city, they are Wuzhang River, Jinshui River, Bianhe River and Cai River, and shipping is also very convenient.

Along the banks of the river and on the streets perpendicular to the river, there are shops and markets that facilitate trading.

The imperial court allowed the people to open the door on the street, and no longer divided the "city" and "fang", so along the banks of the river and on both sides of the imperial road, a prosperous commercial market in Kaifeng Prefecture in Tokyo was formed.

After the market replaced the "market" and "fang", the people engaged in the trading of goods were not only limited to merchants, but also from the princes and ministers, court officials, down to the peddlers and pawns, and even the generals and soldiers in the army, all of whom could buy and sell in the market.

At this time, Li Sanjian was walking alone on the royal road of Xinzheng Gate, feeling very new in his heart, and his mood gradually improved.

After Li Sanjian's provincial examination, he slept for three days and three nights in a row, and his worries about his future caused Li Sanjian to be more depressed, so Li Sanjian didn't bring anyone with him on this day, and came to Kaifeng Market alone to relax and relieve his depressed mood.

In the royal road of Xinzheng Gate, there are not only forest-like shops, but also dense restaurants and green buildings, Goolan tiles, and even countless handicraft workshops, large furnace work, small furnace work, jade work, musical instrument work, whip work, dyeing yard, silk weaving workshop and other official or private workshops have sprung up all over Kaifeng Fucheng, making Li Sanjian dazzled.

Words such as prosperity, luxury, advanced, and civilization repeatedly appeared in Li Sanjian's mind, making Li Sanjian smack his tongue.

"Lotus shed"? At this time, Li Sanjian came to a wooden building called the lotus shed, and he didn't know where this place was, so he looked up at the three big characters of the lotus shed on the plaque in a daze.

At first glance, this wooden building looks like a large bell and drum tower, and there is a waist shed when you look down, and there is a staircase in front of the waist shed, which is the staircase to enter the building, and many people are entering the building through this wooden ladder at this time.

There are also a lot of colored flags or brocade silks hanging on the wooden building, one of which is written on the brocade silk, "Yaodu sees love, Daxing, Sanle and the total show is in this field" fifteen big characters.

What is this? Li Sanjian secretly wondered in his heart, Li Sanjian took a closer look, it seemed to be a green building? The reason is that Li Sanjian saw many young women dressed in colorful colors on the wooden building, standing in front of the building with grease and powder, greeting the guests coquettishly, but if you look closely, it doesn't seem to be a green building, because there are men and women, old and young among the guests, and even young children, so how can it be a green building?

But what is it if it's not a green building? Is it a place where courtesans and maiko perform?

Since Li Sanjian came to this world, he has only seen two singing and dancing performances in the past few years, once in Chenjiazhuang and once in Guizhou. There were only a few people in Guizhou that time, which was not worth mentioning, and Chenjiazhuang, under Chen Wei's arrangement, Li Sanjian was an eye-opener, Li Sanjian was still borrowing wine to touch and mess with the maiko at that time, it was really embarrassing, Li Sanjian felt a little embarrassed when he thought about it at this time.

I don't know how Chen Yu is now? Are you still roaring with your wife Hedong lion every day? What about that brutal Chen Keer? Li Sanjian remembered the past at this time, and couldn't help but smile on his face.

"Hey, what are you doing? What are you doing? Just as Li Sanjian was looking at the wooden building and smirking, someone suddenly pushed Li Sanjian.

Li Sanjian woke up suddenly, and quickly turned his head to look, only to see a "young man" standing behind him.

This "young man" was wearing a light blue brocade robe, a blue hat on his head, and a pair of black boots under his feet, and his figure was extremely slender and long, only half a head shorter than Li Sanjian.

A slender "teenager" is said to have shriveled and empty breasts, but this person's breasts are relatively full, and his clothes are held high, obviously a woman dressed as a man, and his skin is also unusually smooth and white, which is even more illustrative of this problem.

Li Sanjian took a closer look, it turned out that this person was his old acquaintance, Li Qingzhao...

At this time, a trace of anger suddenly flashed on Li Qingzhao's face, and he glared at Li Sanjian and said, "Deng's disciple... You... Where are you looking? ”

Li Sanjian's gaze shuttled back and forth on Li Qingzhao's chest, making Li Qingzhao embarrassed and indignant.

"Oh? Haha, this... Hearing this, Li Sanjian hurriedly covered it up with a haha: "Why are you here?" If you don't wear good women's clothes, why do you dress up like this? ”

"I'm coming to see the play, what? Can't you? Li Qingzhao replied with a slight lifting of his pointed chin like a white lotus petal.

"This is a theater?" Li Sanjian asked in surprise when he heard this.

"What theater? The name of the theater is weird, here is the hook column, and the hook column has a good show to watch today. Li Qingzhao said.

Bordello? So that's the case, Li Sanjian always thought that Goolan was a brothel in Qinglou, it turned out to be a place for singing, Li Sanjian muttered to himself in his heart. Keyuan

Li Qingzhao then walked a few steps, suddenly turned around, and asked Li Sanjian in a hesitant whisper: "Aren't you going to look?" ”

The beauty is invited, or a charming beauty, how can there be a reason not to go? If you don't go, wouldn't Li Sanjian be the number one fool in the world? Merely...

"This..." It's just that when Li Sanjian came out, he didn't have two coins on his body, although Li Sanjian's heart was pounding, his face was red, his ears were red, and his legs were a little weak, but he still stammered and replied: "I haven't eaten yet, my mother is still waiting for me at home... ”

Li Sanjian had already seen that there were people collecting "tickets" at the wooden ladder in front of him.

The most important thing is that maybe in addition to the "tickets", there may be other charging items in the tick column, such as private rooms, melon seeds, peanuts and other fees, Li Sanjian can't afford to pay at this time.

Li Sanjian's lame reason made Li Qingzhao laugh out loud.

At this time, when the hour has just passed, before the end of the day, what kind of food are you eating?

"You... Come on, this girl will be the east today. The smart Li Qingzhao saw Li Sanjian's embarrassment, so he patted the purse on his waist and smiled.

"In this way, it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate, thank you Little Lady Li." Li Sanjian smiled unceremoniously when he heard this, and then walked two steps closer to the wooden ladder side by side with Li Qingzhao.

If you refuse at this time, it's really the world's biggest stupid melon...

Sure enough, the two idlers at the door of the wooden ladder received money for watching the play, 200 wen each.

The two of them are four hundred Wen, and they are almost half a penny, and Li Sanjian only has forty or fifty copper plates in his pocket...

But fortunately, Li Qingzhao took out a delicate small purse from the pouch around his waist, and then twisted out a silver ingot from the small purse and handed it to the two idlers.

"The rest will be rewarded to you." Li Qingzhao grinned.

"Thank you, big officials, go inside." The two idlers were overjoyed when they saw this, and bowed down and kept thanking them.

This piece of silver ingot is at least worth more than consistently, and the two of them have earned hundreds of more wen out of thin air, aren't they overjoyed?

Although the currency in circulation in the Song Dynasty is mainly copper coins, and although gold, silver and other items are collectibles, they can also be circulated as currency among the people, but they are rare, and they are also very valuable, and at the same time, they are basically only used by official eunuchs.

Li Sanjian shook his head, the daughters of big families are really different, and they are so generous.

In fact, Li Sanjian is rare and strange, Li Qingzhao is so common, and Li Sanjian has never seen anyone who is really generous.

After the two of them entered the hook bar, they saw that there was a stage ten zhang wide in the middle, the account was hung just above the stage, the stage was about three feet above the ground, there was a play room behind the stage, for the servants to make up and change clothes, the whole hook bar was rectangular, the wall built of wooden planks was used all around, the roof was made of thin wooden boards, the stage was close to the end of the Goolan theater, it was an extended stage that was open on three sides, and the audience seats under the stage were stage-shaped, and there were many private rooms on both sides that were divided into rooms, and the stage was surrounded on three sides.

was guessed by Li Sanjian again, and sure enough, in addition to the many seats underneath, the private rooms on both sides were extremely richly decorated, but the fees charged were not low.

Li Qingzhao chose an elegant room with an excellent location.

This private room faces the stage, the view is very unobstructed, there is no obstruction, and you can see every corner of the stage.

There is also a small table in the private room, on which are some teapots and teacups.

Under Li Qingzhao's continuous rewards, several small servants diligently sent plates of fruits and vegetables, melon seeds, peanuts, wine and other things, and set up a full table.

"Girl, please!" Li Sanjian was not idle, after pouring Li Qingzhao full of wine diligently, and then sat beside Li Qingzhao quietly, and then looked at the stage even more quietly, with a normal face and a good expression.

Li Qingzhao glanced at Li Sanjian, and did not open his mouth to scold, but smelled the manly breath on Li Sanjian's body, and was a little flustered in his heart, so he hurriedly picked up the melon seeds and knocked them up, his expression was as usual, but a melon seed was swallowed by Li Qingzhao before it was peeled...

Li Sanjian secretly looked at Li Qingzhao, who had an extremely elegant demeanor, and smelled the faint fragrance emanating from Li Qingzhao's body, and his heart was pounding.

At this time, the play has already started, but as for when it will start, the two of them don't know at all...
