Chapter 304: The First Visit

Guo Song and Xue Tao got off the boat in the East Market, and the two of them wandered around the East Market with great interest. Guo Song wanted to hold her hand several times, but Xue Tao was afraid of meeting acquaintances, so he refused to hold hands with him in a crowded place.

The atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty was open, Tang women were generally enthusiastic and unrestrained, men and women traveled together, and lovers held hands and walked together, but it was also necessary to pay attention to the time, place and atmosphere.

For example, when young lovers fly together, on the banks of Qujiang Pond, lovers who travel hand in hand abound, which is what the location allows.

Another example is the Shangyuan Festival, the willow branches on the moon, after dusk, that is the time for lovers to get together, and lovers who carry lanterns and hold hands can be seen everywhere in Chang'an City.

Today, you can travel to Dongshi together, but if you want to hold hands, it will indeed attract some side eyes, Guo Song also realized this, so he gave up the idea of holding hands with Xue Tao.

"Xue Niang, what does your father like?" Guo Song smiled and asked.

Xue Tao thought for a while and said: "My father likes to drink two cups, and last time my senior sister gave me ten bottles of Meishou wine, he drank half of them." ”

"I see, I'll go to the Treasure Pavilion and get two bottles of the best Meishou wine later, and make sure he likes it, what does your mother like?"

"My mother likes a lot of things! She likes money the most, but I think it's better to buy her two pieces of cloth, she doesn't have a dress, she always wears that set, and she is often laughed at. ”

"No problem, I'll buy her two good satins, so what do you like?"

"Me?"

Xue Tao smiled, "Guess what! ”

Guo Song laughed twice, "Of course you like me the most!" ”

"Go!"

Xue Tao took a sip, "Flim tongue, it's not serious at all, forget it, you can count one, what else?" ”

"You like books and the four treasures of the study, don't you?"

"You're right, there's another thing I like right now."

"What is it?"

Xue Tao whispered to Guo Song: "I found a piece of white jade in a secret compartment at the head of your bed, I really like it, people say that a gentleman wears jade, and I found that women can also wear jade." ”

Guo Song laughed, "It's not easy for you to like jade, I'm afraid the best jade in the world is in my hands, I'll take you to see it, it's in the Treasure Pavilion, where there is a private treasure room of mine." ”

Xue Tao clapped his hands with joy, "Then you take me quickly." ”

Xue Tao couldn't wait a little longer, and urged Guo Song repeatedly, at this time Guo Song suddenly remembered something, he blinked and said to Xue Tao: "I have the best gem hidden in your room, haven't you found it?" ”

Xue Tao shook his head, "If you are buried in the ground, I will definitely not find it." ”

"I'll go back with you later and take it out."

The two came to the Treasure Pavilion, the chief steward knew Guo Song, and stepped forward to salute him, Guo Song smiled and said: "I'm going to my treasure room, please ask the chief steward to open the door!" ”

"Good! I'll go get the keys. ”

The chief steward turned around to get the key, and Guo Song hurriedly said: "Go to the proprietor Zhang's room and get two bottles of Meishou wine, which are the two bottles in the cupboard, and I'll tell him when I turn around." ”

"I know, Guo Yuanjun, please wait."

The chief steward hurriedly went, and after a while, he took a small box, and in the box were two bottles of the best Meishou wine, which Zhang Lei was going to keep for himself, and was used as a gift by Guo Song.

There is also a big copper key, the chief steward took the two to the treasure hall behind the warehouse, there are a total of thirty treasure rooms, all of which are to keep treasures for the most important big customers, the entire treasure hall is made of big bluestone, extremely strong and sturdy, unless a war breaks out and the army completely smashes it, otherwise ordinary thieves have no way to start.

Through the two iron gates, the chief steward took them to the treasure room of No. 7, which is Guo Song's treasure room, there is a thick iron door at the door, there are two locks, and two keys are needed to open.

Xue Tao carried the lantern, pulled Guo Song and whispered: "He locked the door, if it doesn't open, won't we be able to get out?" ”

Guo Song hugged her slender waist, kissed her pretty face, and said with a smile: "It's best not to open it, let's just be a mandarin duck with the same fate!" ”

"Yikes! Beware of being seen. ”

Xue Tao slapped him on the shoulder twice, and after speaking, she couldn't help but laugh herself, where is there a third person here.

Guo Song took out a copper key from his money bag and opened the second lock, 'Squeak quack! He pushed open the iron door, and the treasure room was about seven or eight square meters, and there were rows of wooden shelves inside.

The shelves were full of large and small wooden boxes, Guo Song took out a sandalwood box and handed it to Xue Tao, "Look at this!" ”

Xue Tao put the lantern on the shelf, took the box and opened it, inside was a piece of white shining jade, she exclaimed, "What kind of jade is this?" ”

Guo Song said with a smile: "This is called Xiaohe's Bi, Tian Shengong grabbed it from Yangzhou 20 years ago, has been collecting, and later fell into the hands of his brother Tian Shenyu, he often uses this piece of jade to show off, and is very famous in the imperial court, four years ago I was ordered to assassinate Tian Shenyu, this piece of jade will be returned to me as a trophy, and you will give it to you if you like." ”

Xue Tao shook his head, "I don't want it, this piece of jade is stained with too much people's blood, I don't like it!" ”

Guo Song put the box away, Xue Tao opened several other boxes, she took one of them, and said to Guo Song: "Guo Lang, I like this piece of jade!" ”

Guo Song gave a thumbs up and praised: "You really have eyesight, this is what I brought back from Anxi, and it is one of the three best pieces of mutton fat jade I picked out, if you like it, I will give it to you." ”

Xue Tao held the beautiful jade in her hand, the delicate white greasy feeling fascinated her, and her face bloomed with a smile, "I want this piece of jade, okay, I'm satisfied, let's go!" ”

Guo Song pointed to the shelf and said, "There are so many things!" And gems, don't you look? ”

Xue Tao smiled mischievously: "Three thousand weak water, the little woman only takes one scoop!" ”

........

After the two finished shopping in the East Market, they bought three good lake silk for Xue Tao's mother, and then left the East Market and walked to Xuanyangfang.

As soon as I walked into the door, I happened to meet Xue Tao's mother Han, who was about to criticize her daughter for coming home too late, but found that she was followed by a tall and heroic young man, she couldn't help but be stunned, "Tao'er, this is ......."

Xue Tao tried his best to introduce his mother in a calm tone: "Mother, this is Guo Gongzi, who came to our house today at the invitation of his father!" ”

"Ahh Han was taken aback, how could Guo Song come back with his daughter?

Guo Song stepped forward and bowed, "Little nephew Guo Song see his aunt!" ”

Han was a little in a hurry, and hurriedly said: "I'm really sorry, the first time I saw Childe, I was a little sluggish just now, Childe is not strange!" ”

Guo Song took three pieces of fine silk and handed them to Han, "This is the first time I come to the door, this is a little bit of my nephew's heart, please accept it!" ”

"This ..... I'm really embarrassed, just go to the door, what else to buy! ”

"Mother, you can take it!" Xue Tao couldn't help but say on the side.

Han glared at her daughter, this child is not sensible, she can't even say kind words, like her father, she had to accept it, and thanked her again and again, "I also let you break the bank, thank you so much." ”

At this time, Xue Xun came out of the study and said with a smile: "Nephew Guo Xian is here!" ”

Guo Song hurriedly stepped forward and saluted and handed over two bottles of wine, "This is also a little bit of my nephew's heart, I hope my uncle likes it!" ”

"Okay!"

Xue Xun took it unceremoniously, looked up and down, smiled from ear to ear and said, "This is Meishou wine!" I've heard of the name for a long time, and I asked for five yuan for a bottle, and my nephew actually gave me two bottles. ”

Guo Song smiled slightly: "This is better than the Meishou wine on the market, there is a three-year cellar on the market, this is a ten-year cellar, it is a tribute to the palace, and there is no one on the market." ”

"Then I'll try it tonight!"

Han Shi was suddenly anxious, snatched the wine over and said, "Keep such a good wine for gifts later, it's too wasteful for you to drink." ”

Han carried wine and silk into the house, and Xue Xun had to smile bitterly at the two.

Guo Song smiled dumbly, the Xue family really has a breath of life.

Xue Tao said: "Daddy, Guo Gongzi said that he still has a treasure hidden in my study, I want to take him to see, where is it hidden?" ”

"Good! Can I go with me? ”

After Xue Xun finished speaking, he winked at his daughter, how smart he was, when he saw his daughter and Guo Song entering the house together, he guessed that the person who was playing with his daughter today must be Guo Song.

Xue Xun is very open-minded, as long as his daughter likes it, he generally will not object, of course, the premise is that the character must be good, like Yuan Xiao, who looks forward to the early death of his sick wife, he hates it, Guo Song's character is very good, he dares to fight against the traitor Yuan Zai in the imperial court, defend the country at the border, and resist the invaders, such a young man is worthy of his daughter's life.

Xue Tao's face turned red and he muttered in a low voice, "No one said they wouldn't let you go." ”

The three of them went to the courtyard where Xue Tao lived together, Guo Song didn't expect Xue Tao's choice to be the same as himself, they all chose this small courtyard, the scenery of the small courtyard is very beautiful, there is a century-old plum tree in the corner of the house, there is a beautiful Taihu Lake stone, and a small flower garden, which is planted with several precious peonies.

Guo Song walked into the outer study, he emptied a bookshelf, pulled it a little harder, and only listened to 'Click!' With a bang, the bookshelf moved, and it turned out that the bookshelf was fixed to the wooden frame like a small door in a flash.

Xue Tao was dumbfounded, she never knew that there was something else behind her bookshelf, Guo Song opened the bookshelf, and a small Bogu shelf was revealed behind it, inlaid on the wall.

Xue Xun applauded and laughed, "This is interesting, this is called a shelf in a shelf, the prince's study also has this kind of device, it is better to put some important things." ”

There was a gold box on the Bogu shelf, Guo Song took out the gold box and said: "Actually, it's not good, I actually forgot it when I left, but fortunately you live, if someone else lives, it's really not good for me to come and get it." ”

Guo Lang..... Guo Gongzi! ”

Xue Tao shouted all of a sudden, and suddenly her face was flushed with shame, she secretly glanced at her father, it seemed that her father was looking at the gold box on the table with his negative hand, and he didn't hear his mistake, she relaxed a little and patted her chest.

"Nephew Guo Xian, what kind of treasure is this?" Xue Xun pretended not to hear anything, and bent down to look at the gold box.

Guo Song opened the gold box, and inside was a pearl the size of a pigeon's egg, flashing with a faint white light.

Xue Xun looked at it carefully for a moment, and his face gradually became serious, "Do others know about this bead?" ”

"The Son of Heaven knows, and He has given it to me."

"That's good, or you're in trouble."

"Daddy, what kind of bead is this?" Xue Tao asked.

Xue Xun pondered for a moment and said: "If I am not mistaken, this is the night pearl known as the king of ten thousand pearls, it is rumored that Li Fuguo has one, virtuous nephew, I am not wrong!" ”

Guo Song nodded, "Uncle guessed correctly, it's Li Fuguo's." ”

"Pearl of the Night?"

Xue Tao suddenly became interested, and bent down to take a closer look, "How does it get brighter?" ”

"It's lit up in a dark room, and if you like it, I'll give it to you."

"No way!"

Xue Xun decisively closed the gold box and handed it to Guo Song, "This is not something that ordinary people can have, the Son of Heaven will give it to you, you can put it away and put it here for me, I won't be able to sleep at night." ”

Guo Song knew that Xue Xun was telling the truth, the Night Pearl was known as the Pearl of the Son of Heaven, and ordinary people had something that really caused trouble, so he was no longer reluctant and took the gold box.

Xue Tao wanted to take another look, but Xue Xun gave her a look, looked out, and there was the sound of his mother's footsteps outside, Xue Tao suddenly understood, and hurriedly said: "Guo Gongzi, put it away!" ”

"What are you doing?" Han's voice came from the courtyard.

Xue Xun said with a smile: "There is a mechanism in Tao'er's study, Guo Gongzi is pointing it out to us!" ”
