Chapter 123: The Red Sleeve Pavilion
As early as a few months ago, Fang Xiaopang's uncle had said that when he arrived in Jingshi, he must go to Fang's Mansion to inform him.
Fang Hong is the main examiner of the Lingzhou State Examination, and after he arrived in Beijing, he didn't go to visit Fangfu, which was a little unreasonable.
In addition, Li Tianlan should also be notified, but he doesn't know the location of the envoys of Chu for the time being, and as soon as he arrived in Beijing, he went to visit the envoys of Chu.
Fangfu Tang Ning planned to wait until after the Lantern Festival was over, as for Li Tianlan, it was better to put it first, before leaving, Tang Fairy's "advice" was still echoing in his ears, who knows if she has any eyes and ears in Beijing, and she will go to see Li Tianlan in her eyes the next day after arriving in Beijing, which is much more serious than messing with flowers and grass.
Tang Ning shook his head secretly, as the Xiaoyi of the main palace, he didn't say anything, and Xiaoru of half of the main palace didn't say that he didn't know any messy women, she was a ...... and a neighbor, and she was too much to manage.
He gave the old beggar the last jar of wine steamed on the road, walked out of the room, and walked downstairs, where they arrived late yesterday, and just found an inn at random and paid for a day's accommodation.
The environment here is not bad, and he plans to live for another half a month.
At the counter downstairs, the guy looked at him and said, "Guest officer, I'm really sorry, you only booked for one day last night, and you didn't come over to say hello in the morning, those rooms have been booked just now." ”
Although it was a bit troublesome to move things, it was indeed his negligence, Tang Ning thought for a while and said, "Then change to another room." ”
The guy looked at him, shook his head again and said, "I'm sorry officer, our store is full today." ”
The inn was full, so they had to look elsewhere.
Fortunately, all the old beggar's luggage was a wine gourd, Peng Chen only had a few changes of clothes except for his knife, and Tang Ning didn't have many things of his own, so he quickly packed up, left the room, and walked out of the inn.
Jingshi is the capital, the flow of people is huge, people from all over the world are gathered here, and there are naturally a lot of inns for people to stay, and it didn't take long to see another one.
Peng Chen walked in, walked out again after a while, shook his head, and said, "It's full." ”
Shangyuan is the most lively festival of the year, and it is the year of the imperial examination, students from all over the world gather in Beijing, and it is common for the inn room to be tight, but they have traveled several streets, and all the inns are full, which is a little unusual.
Especially when I saw with my own eyes, I just told them that an inn was full, and in a short period of time, several guests had already moved in.
The old beggar held the wine gourd, took a sip of wine, and smacked his lips: "Have you offended someone?" ”
Tang Ning looked at the bustling crowd on the street and whispered, "Is it so fast?" ”
Peng Chen looked at him, his face sank, and said, "I'll ask them!" ”
"No need." Tang Ning waved his hand and said, "Let's go, let's go somewhere else." ”
With that, he turned and turned back.
Peng Chen carried the burden and followed behind him.
The old beggar put the wine gourd back on, looked back in a certain direction, and then followed leisurely.
At the end of his line of sight, in a private room in a restaurant, a young man's gaze was withdrawn from the window.
He glanced at the street below, then at the young man who was drinking in the private room, and asked, "Second Shao, has that person offended you?" ”
The young man put his left hand around a delicate woman, drank a glass of wine, leaned over and kissed the woman, crossed the wine in his mouth, and looked at the woman's face with a hint of red, then he picked up the wine glass again and said: "You don't have to worry about this, in short, don't let him stay in Jingshi comfortably." ”
The young man thought for a moment, looked at him and asked, "What does Ershao mean?" ”
The young man's hand roamed over the woman's body, and he said lightly: "Pay attention to proportion, don't make trouble." ”
The young man smiled and said, "I see. ”
……
The streets of Kyoshi.
The old beggar looked up at the plaque of a luxurious attic, then looked at Tang Ning again, and asked, "Are you sure we want to live here?" ”
Looking at the gilded "Red Sleeve Pavilion" on the plaque, Tang Ning was also a little unexpected.
He knew that the Tang family also had a business in Beijing, but he didn't expect that the rich man Tang looked thick-eyed, honest and honest, and actually did a Qinglou business in Beijing.
He was sure that Tang Yaoyao didn't know about this, otherwise she wouldn't give him such a sign, and at the same time, he also reminded him not to mess with flowers and grass outside.
Or does she mean that don't mess with flowers and grass outside, the girls in their green building can communicate casually and deeply?
Anyway, they walked on the streets of Jingshi for several hours, and they only saw this one place with the Tang family's obvious mark, Tang Ning shook his head and said, "Let's go in and have a look." ”
When he stepped into the attic and looked inside, for a moment, it felt like he had stepped into another world.
There is a pleasant sound of silk and bamboo in the ears, and on a high platform in the middle of the lobby, there are several enchanting women dancing with the music, every movement is in line with the rhythm of the music, at a glance, giving people the ultimate beauty.
They were all dressed very thinly, and under the gauzy clothes, snow-white skin loomed, sometimes revealing the navel, or a small piece of smooth skin......
Goo-dong.
Tang Ning noticed that Peng Chen swallowed a mouthful of saliva quietly, and his body bent slightly in an arc.
The old beggar left the wine gourd behind him, dug it under his crotch very gracelessly, turned his head to look at Tang Ning, and said seriously: "Let's live here." ”
There are not many guests in the attic, except for the dancing girls above, there are only a few dozen people, and judging from the dress, each of them is either rich or expensive.
Compared with them, the three Tang Nings, especially the old beggar, seemed a little too different.
A man who looked like a shopkeeper walked over from inside, glanced at the three of them with a surprised gaze, and finally stopped on Tang Ning, and said with a smile: "Childe, please show the jade plate." ”
Tang Ning looked at him and asked, "Jade plate?" ”
The shopkeeper nodded and said, "Only those who have the jade plate given by this pavilion can enter this pavilion." ”
He looked at Tang Ning and the others, and said politely: "This pavilion is not a green building, nor is it an inn, if the prince wants to stay in the hotel or have fun, please go out and turn left." ”
Tang Ning raised his head, looked at the sign on a pillar in the attic again, took out a wooden plaque from his arms, and said, "I don't have a jade plaque, can the wooden plaque work?" ”
The logo here is the same as the logo on the brand given to him by the Tang goblin, but what people want is a jade brand, and the brand in his hand, I don't know if it's useful?
The shopkeeper looked at the wooden sign in his hand, his body shook, and immediately asked, "Childe, can you show this brand to the villain?" ”
Tang Ning casually handed him the wooden sign.
The shopkeeper took the wooden sign, looked at it over and over for a while, then handed it to him, and said, "Wait a minute, Childe, I'll be back soon." ”
He trotted all the way around the high platform, ran to the rear, and soon ran out again, and took the wooden card from Downing's hand again, and matched it with the other piece in his hand.
The patterns on the edges of the two wooden plaques are tightly knit and when put together, they are exactly the same as the patterns on the pillars in the pavilion.
The shopkeeper handed the wooden card to Tang Ning, bowed down and said respectfully: "I don't know what the son commands?" ”
"It's not a command." Tang Ning glanced at him in surprise, shook his head and said, "Do you have a place to live here?" ”
The shopkeeper nodded without any hesitation, and said respectfully: "Childe, please come with me." ”
He led Tang Ning and the three of them to the high platform, and Tang Ning found that this high platform extended from the middle staircase, and there were stairs on both sides, which could go up to the second floor.
"Childe, please follow me upstairs."
When Tang Ning walked upstairs with him, he had just stepped on the steps when a voice came from behind him.
"Stop!" A young man stepped forward, looked at the shopkeeper, and asked, "Isn't the second floor of your Red Sleeve Pavilion not allowed guests to go up, what does this mean?" ”
The shopkeeper looked at him and explained, "Little grandfather, this prince is our honored guest of the Red Sleeve Pavilion......
"Guest?" The young man was stunned when he heard this, and then he said angrily: "He is your honored guest, and I am not your honored guest!" ”
Without waiting for the shopkeeper to answer, he strode onto the steps, pointed to the woman dancing on the stage, and said angrily: "What do you say that the second floor is the girls' boudoir, and outsiders are not allowed to step in, it turns out that they are all fooling people, even I dare to fool people, I tell you, this little grandfather not only wants to go up today, but also wants them to accompany me, one is not enough, I want ten!" ”
"Hehe......" As soon as he finished speaking, a laugh came from his ears.
The young man turned his head sharply, pointed at the old beggar, and said angrily, "What are you laughing at! ”
The old beggar looked at him, with a mocking look on his face, and said, "A boy chicken, what kind of flower bush veteran?" ”
The young man was stunned, his face instantly turned blood-red, pointed at him, and said in a trembling voice: "You, you don't want to spew blood!" ”
"Just look at your face and know that you have bad kidneys." The old beggar looked at him, shook his head, and asked, "Young man, ...... in the morning Can't get up, right? ”
The young man's body trembled, and his face turned from red to white and then to red......
