Chapter 450: Shan Changfeng
She didn't go beforehand, so the owner didn't know she was coming, and the teahouse was the most crowded time, and the storyteller was invited above, and it was spitting at this time!
"Last time, we said that after the king of the south fled to the kingdom of Shu, he tangled a group of troops to invade my east, Gaozu drove the expedition in person, and captured the king of the south, and later, the king of the south killed himself, but he left a suspense for Gaozu before he died, saying that there is another thing that Gaozu can't figure out when he dies, ladies and gentlemen, guess what it is?"
The storyteller touched a strand of beard on his chin, and his eyes sparkled as he looked at the group of tea drinkers and asked.
The group of tea guests listened with relish, and some people rose up to guess a few, but the storytellers shook their heads, and everyone's ambition was suddenly hung high, and some people below kept shouting: "Don't sell the coffin, say it quickly." β
Qin Niang found a small table by the window and sat down with great interest, and Xiao Er hurriedly ran up and asked, "This lady, what do you want to drink?" β
Qin Niang saw that Xiao Er was a newcomer, and she didn't recognize her, but she didn't find out her identity, she only ordered a pot of flower and fruit tea at random, let a few plates of snacks be served, and sent people away after three cups.
"When you're out and about, you don't have to pay attention to those false courtesies, you two should sit down too, otherwise you will have to attract the attention of others in a while." Qin Niang pointed to the seat opposite her.
Qiu Tao and Qiu Xue glanced at each other, and sat down on the stool facing Qin Niang in a kind manner, Xiao Er quickly served tea and fruit snacks to a few of them, and greeted them very enthusiastically and sweetly, and called him if there was something.
"Miss, the story told on there is somewhat similar to the current court situation, but it sounds like something happened when the court opened." Qiu Tao turned her head and glanced at the side of the storyteller, and said.
Although she didn't read much, she still heard some of the deeds of Emperor Gaozu, the founder of the country, who quelled civil strife and eliminated foreign enemies.
The official of the Yang family, for these outstanding deeds, occasionally talk about one or two, even if Qin Niang is a girl's family, she is not a girl from an ordinary official family who doesn't listen to things outside the window.
In fact, she has a wide range of knowledge, and as an autumn peach who grew up with her since childhood, she has naturally heard of it.
"Isn't this just a satire of the past?" Qin Niang pulled the corners of her lips, pinched a melon seed and swallowed it, "Isn't King Ling already fleeing to Xishu?" Moreover, now he is fighting with the Third Highness on the front line! β
When Qiu Tao heard it, it was clear in an instant.
Qiu Xue didn't know much about this, there was delicious food in front of her, she didn't talk much, she ate those snacks with her arms, and listened to a paragraph from time to time to the side of the story, which felt quite delicious.
If she could follow Qin Niang like this every day to listen to the books and drink tea, she didn't want to find a stinky man to serve, marry someone or something, or leave it to others.
"He said that King Nan left a hidden danger for Gaozu until his death, what is the hidden danger?" Qiu Tao looked at Qin Niang curiously and asked.
It is impossible for her to know this historical allusion so clearly, so at this time, seeing that the storyteller has to speak energetically, and the tea guests in the audience are also interesting, she can't help but ask curiously.
"Gaozu didn't understand what the secret that King Nan said until he died, and it wasn't until later that the prince of Qin forced the palace to seize the throne, and an amazing secret was revealed, that is, the son of King Qin was not the son of King Qin in the first place, but the posthumous son of King Nan." Not many people know about this allusion, because, although the prince of Qin succeeded in forcing the palace to seize the throne, he was ousted from power before he could sit on the throne for a few days.
Under the chaos and rectification, the history of the success of the prince of Qin to force the palace has not been written in the official history, after all, this is a very disgraceful thing for the royal family, and the royal family does not admit that he was taken from the throne.
Most of this history appears in wild history, so few people know about it.
Now that this storyteller has said it, everyone's ambitions have been raised, and everyone doesn't even know if he is telling a story he made up, or alluding to the current King Ling's rebellion.
But there are also some smart people among them, who have heard that some doors are coming.
King Nan also left a posthumous son before his death, and many years later he forced the palace to seize the throne, this storytelling is to allude to the fact that King Ling also left such a hand?
If not, why would he say it so meaningfully?
"This storytelling is a bit interesting, and I don't know which one of the owners dug up such a person, I haven't seen it in the capital before." Qin Niang drank tea and listened to the white-bearded old man on the stage with great interest.
"Miss, the slave maid sees that this business is very good, and it is even fuller than the Chen family's class." Qiu Xue doesn't understand those historical allusions, and she doesn't require herself to understand, there is food and drink here, and there are stories to listen to, so she will listen to the excitement and look at the excitement.
"The slave and maid saw that these business people have learned a trick recently, that is, they have invited some storytellers or singers, specifically to those guests to tell some shady or private affairs in the aristocratic circle in Beijing, which has attracted these people who want to listen to gossip to those places, and our teahouse is just talking about some things that are happening and everyone knows, and other places are different, and they dare to say anything."
Qiu Tao thought of that Chen family class, didn't she dare to sing anything outside?
It's just that they sang and sang without naming names, and many stories were deliberately changed in some places, so that people couldn't find faults, and it was really hard to find trouble with them.
"If these people don't innovate like this, how can they have a business?" Qin Niang thought, there are idlers in this capital, everyone gets together, which one doesn't like to listen to the excitement?
At this time, a tea guest in the hall suddenly interrupted the old man who was telling the story: "You are boring to tell a story, let me tell you a paragraph." β
The storyteller was stunned for a moment, and before he could agree, the man strode towards where he was standing, and forcefully pushed him aside.
Although Mr. Storyteller was not very happy, but this was a teahouse, and the rules set by Qin Niang did not say that people with stories would automatically go up and tell it, so he had to find a place to sit down and let Xiao Er also serve him a pot of tea.
"It is said that more than 20 years ago, there was a small official lady who climbed into a good family business, but ......"
After the white-faced and thin-eyebrow man came to the stage, he opened his throat and spoke.
It's just that the more he said, the more Qin Niang felt that he cared about something, and immediately her face sank: "Qiu Xue, you go and call the owner over." β
Qiu Xue answered and left the table.
The man above was still talking with relish: "It was originally a marriage with the wrong door, but the family with the high door did not dislike the woman's low background, the two agreed on the marriage, and the man and woman also had feelings, but when the two people were in love, the palace coup d'Γ©tat......"
Among the people seated, there were many older people, and everyone hadn't heard of Wei'er at first, but the more they listened to it, the more they felt that the person above was faintly saying that the Shan family and the Lu family had been married at the beginning?
Moreover, the eldest son of the Shan family was also engaged to the second daughter of the Lu family?
Oh my God, this is so big that if no one says it, they don't know it!
According to what he said, the Shan family and the Lu family are married, and the Miss Lu family is still secretly married, so isn't the current Yang family's son......
Everyone's faces became full of interest.
There is no one who doesn't like to listen to gossip, especially gossip between high-ranking families.
"Miss, let him talk nonsense again, I'm afraid that tomorrow the capital will be full of rumors, and the eldest prince is not from the Yang Mansion." Qiu Tao whispered in a low voice, faintly anxious in her heart.
If she had such good skills like Qiu Xue, she would have to rush up and beat people down at this time.
"You go to Jingzhao Mansion to report to the official, and you will say that there are people here who spread rumors in the name of storytelling." Qin Niang squeezed the cup of tea in her hand, her eyes sank, and she looked at the man who was talking energetically with a faint cold light.
This is her teahouse, and someone dares to go to her territory to spread rumors, it seems that she is more polite in the morning at Xie's gold shop.
Qiu Tao answered, trotted downstairs, and went straight to Jingzhao Yin's mansion.
Qiu Xue came back soon, and behind her was the owner who Qin Niang personally ordered him to take care of the teahouse.
The proprietor was obviously surprised that Qin Niang actually came, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "I didn't know that the young lady had arrived, and she was disappointed." β
Qin Niang waved her hand: "The false courtesy is forgiven, who is that person?" β
She asked, pointing to the man who was spitting on the stage.
The proprietor glanced there, his eyes widened slightly, and said, "Isn't that the nephew of the Li family?" β
Qin Niang looked at the owner in surprise and asked, "The Li family you are talking about, but Jingzhao Yin Li Mu?" β
The proprietor nodded and said: "In addition to him, there is no official position in this capital, the surname Li is not high, this is Mrs. Li's nephew, more than thirty people, idle all day long, on weekdays come here to drink tea and listen to the story, how did he come on stage today to tell the story?" β
The proprietor had been busy with the accounts in the inner hall just now, and obviously didn't know what Mrs. Li's nephew was talking about, but, facing Qin Niang's not very good face, he listened carefully with his ears pricked up for a while, and soon heard some doorways.
Although Shan An's return to Beijing was not deliberately publicized, their teahouse was backed by the mansions of major wealthy families, and the Beijing machine was structured, and the news was naturally much better than that of ordinary people, and Shan An went to Yang Mansion twice before and after, and they naturally knew about it.
Obviously, isn't the one above who is not afraid of death alluding to the fact that Mrs. Yang and Shan An once had a disgraceful paragraph?
The more the owner listened, the more frightened he became, the guy was not so noisy on weekdays, and he wanted to go on stage to tell the story, why did he run up and say in front of the owner of the house as soon as the young lady came?
"Do you want the villain to drag him down?" The proprietor looked at Qin Niang's face carefully and asked.
Qin Niang tugged at the corners of her lips: "No, wait." β
The owner was confused, what are you waiting for?
