Wu Chengwu at home has been answering questions, and the article "Punishment and Loyalty" has not satisfied Gan Qi to this day, so he can only continue to write.

Wu Chengwu was somewhat unenlightened, making Gan Qi feel as if he was answering a question by himself, and he had to say everything in detail, constantly expressing his own opinions.

In the evening, Su Shi came to invite again, yesterday was Ouyang Xiu's banquet, and today he was preparing to ask Gan Qi to go to the Yuxian Tower again.

Gan Qi looked at Su Shi, and then at Wu Chengwu, who was writing hard, and said with a smile: "Brother Zizhan, the big exam is coming, and others are reviewing and preparing for the exam at home one by one, but you only think about spending time and drinking, why are people so different?" ”

Su Shi said with a smile: "What to prepare for, I have been studying for more than ten years, and I am preparing for the exam every day, and now I should spend all my time drinking, and I don't have to be too nervous." If you can't pass the test, you will be left to fate. ”

"I don't think Zizhan is resigned to fate, you are confident." Gan Qi obviously saw through Su Shi.

Su Shi smiled embarrassedly: "I wanted to be modest, but Brother Gan, you still broke it." Since I started to participate in the scientific examination, there is no question that I can't do, whether it's the text of the scriptures, or the strategy, whatever. ”

Gan Qi shook his head and raised his hand: "Let's go, this is uncomfortable to say." ”

Gan Qi took Su Shi and went out. There was a Wu Chengwu in the study, and he could hear Su Shi's words, and his face was painful.

Su Shi brought two folding fans today, the fan surface is his own calligraphy and painting, the weather has turned cold, Su Shi still shakes the folding fan from time to time, and said with a smile: "Brother Gan, if I am admitted this time, you and I are afraid that we will separate." ”

Gan Qi knows the truth, nine times out of ten, the Jinshi of the new department is sent abroad, and it is unlikely that he will stay in Beijing if he is a judge, a magistrate, or a county magistrate or something.

"Do you want to stay in Jingzhong?" Gan Qi asked.

"Stay in Kyochu? It's okay, I'm still willing to go to the local state capital, and finally become an official, and when I go to the Texas capital, I am a figure, but staying in Beijing is nothing, if I make a little achievement, I can stay up for a few years and then enter Beijing, I can also be promoted to a grade of power, so better. Su Shi knew these things very well in his heart.

Gan Qi didn't persuade much, but said: "It's still early, it's early, and it's fun in time." ”

Su Shi nodded and said: "The only advantage of this Bianliang City is that it is good to be happy, except for this, it is useless." ”

Su Shi is a person with great wisdom, and it naturally makes sense to say this. The capital of the Great Song Dynasty, what is so good to ask? I can't really say anything about the benefits other than having fun.

Extravagance, the entire center of the imperial court, is in this extravagant entertainment.

Is it good or bad?

Yuxian Lou, Gan Qi and Su Shi came, but Su Zhe today but in the future, Su Zhe didn't seem to have to be free and easy, and studied hard at home to prepare for the exam.

Seeing the two of them entering, the little maid bowed forward to greet him: "Do the two sons know each other?" ”

Su Shi and Gan Qi glanced at each other and said, "Go and report to Miss Xiao, just say that Gan Qi and Su Shi are here." ”

When the little girl heard these two names, she looked up and immediately smiled on her face: "The two sons will wait a while, eat tea on the side, and the little one will go to report, and he will return in a moment, and he will return in a moment." ”

Gan Qi and Su Shi sat down on the side, the tea came, and Gan Qi suddenly said: "Zizhan, this time I want to redeem that Xiao girl, but I don't know what the price of a girl in such a famous building is?" ”

"What? Ransom? Brother Gan, you don't have to, right? In the land of wind and moon, if Brother Gan wants to have some fun, he can go with his ability, why spend so much? Su Shi seemed to be a little incomprehensible. The status of women in this era is really not high, in addition to wives, it is very common for women in the family to give away.

Su Shi also did such a thing, when Su Shi was demoted, he had many concubines at home, and they were all given away, and it was even rumored that Su Shi even sent out the concubine who was pregnant with his child. There are also some sad stories in it, which are hard to distinguish between truth and falsehood. There is even a record in the "History of the Song Dynasty" that the later eunuch Liang Shicheng was the son of the concubine sent out by Su Shi.

But this is how Su Shi loves his wife very much, and Su Shi fills in the words, "Ten years of life and death, without thinking, unforgettable." Thousands of miles of lonely graves, nowhere to talk about desolate ......", this song is composed to mourn his deceased wife.

It can't be said that Su Shi is a scumbag or something, but the whole era is like this, not Su Shi alone.

Su Shi didn't seem to understand why Gan Qi wanted to spend a lot of money to buy a woman in a green house, but Gan Qi asked again: "Zizhan, is it really expensive?" ”

Su Shi nodded again and again: "Expensive, if it is a little girl who is still learning art from her mother, she looks thoughtful, and it is only a dozen yuan, and if she looks poor, she can buy it for a few dollars." But Miss Xiao has already become an artist, and now that you and I have praised her, she is also a little famous, and she will not be able to redeem it if she does not have more than a thousand yuan. ”

"More than a thousand? Are we shooting ourselves in the foot? Gan Qi was also a little surprised, and ordered Gan Ba to buy someone in the tooth shop, a twelve or thirteen-year-old maid, about ten times. When I got to Xiao Jiunu, I had to go through a thousand times. The price of more than 100 acres of good land.

Su Shi waved his hand and smiled: "So, you don't have to spend so much." If you want to kiss Fangze, isn't it simple? ”

Su Shi is that merry person, and he naturally thinks about it.

Gan Qi shook his head: "A kiss Fang Ze pays attention to your affection and my wishes, but I don't force it." I ransom Miss Xiao, I have other plans, more than a thousand runs, more than a thousand runs, since I am optimistic, how much money will be paid. Today, I will ask Miss Xiao if she is willing to make another decision. ”

"Miss Xiao is naturally willing, and now she has not left the pavilion, and finding a good family is a hundred times better than ushering in Yuxian Tower. Brother Gan, you are also willing to buy a girl in the green building more than 1,000 times, and teach people to admire. Su Shi replied.

At this time, the little guy had already rushed over, and bowed forward to invite: "Two sons, please, Miss Xiao heard that you two are here, it was a surprise, and she was sweeping the couch." The sake and dishes are served, too. ”

"Go and ask, and if she wants to, then I'll pay tomorrow." Gan Qi stood up and said.

Su Shi laughed: "Brother Gan, it's normal, I call myself a romantic person, how can I think that compared to you, it is still far behind." ”

The two went to the backyard, through the courtyard of the flower and fish pond, through the pavilion corridor, Xiao Jiunu's wing room was relatively remote, and the two entered and sat down.

A living room, Gan Qi and Su Shi sat left and right, in front of the head is a screen, behind the screen is a Hu bed, sitting on the Hu bed is Xiao Jiunu, the middle screen covers Xiao Jiunu, Gan Qi and Su Shi can't see Xiao Jiunu, can only see some looming figures through the screen.

Xiao Jiu Nufu bowed and said, "The slave family visits the two sons. ”

Su Shi was familiar with the way, and said directly: "Remove this screen." ”

Xiao Jiunu was silent for a moment when he heard this, and then said, "Yi Gongzi is." ”

The little guy on the side had already stepped forward to remove the screen. In fact, this screen is in every girl's room, and it is up to the girls to decide whether to remove the screen or not. Every time there is a new customer, the screen will be erected in the middle, and if the girl has a good impression of the customer, the screen will be removed.

is such a clean person, the degree of freedom is still quite high, what is sold is not the body, or even art, what is sold is love. Literati come to such a place, in fact, they are here to fall in love, poetry and piano art, that is romance. In this era, there is only love in the Qinglou, there is no such thing as love in other places, marriage is the words of the matchmaker of the parents, and the men and women before marriage can't even meet each other.

The services provided by the Qingqi people can be regarded as "love services".

As soon as the screen was removed, the little maid went out, leaving only a maid in the room who served the wine and food.

Xiao Jiunu still hugged the pipa and half-covered his face, bowed his head shyly, and did not raise his head to look at Gan Qi Su Shi.

Ganchi was the first time to come to such an occasion, and he didn't say much. Su Shi said: "I'm tired of Miss Xiao to stroke a few songs, and I'll drink a few cups with Brother Gan." ”

Under normal circumstances, most of the literati who come here are holding girls, as if they are pursuing. Su Shi is different, most of the girls are holding him, and Su Shi is used to it.

Xiao Jiunu stroked the piano and began to sing, listened tactfully, and sang Gan Qi's words directly with his mouth.

Gan Qi was somewhat restrained, and drank with Su Shi again and again.

The music in the wing room here was already there, and after a while, there were suddenly a lot of people in the left and right wings, all of whom were girls in Yuxian Building.

Hearing Xiao Jiunu singing, the girls were excited one by one and whispered to each other.

"It's really Nagan Gongzi and Su Gongzi who are here, it's true, we must not miss the opportunity today."

"The opportunity cannot be missed, what excuse should I use to worry about the individual?"

"Sisters, why don't we go in directly?"

"No, isn't that a loss of gift?"

"So what do you say? Can't you let the nine slaves take all the benefits alone? ”

"Or wait, if the two sons come out to go to the toilet or something, let's go up and invite, and it will be regarded as a chance encounter."

"Okay, this method is good, not rude, and not abrupt."

Just as the girls were discussing with each other, the singing in the next room suddenly stopped.

Gan Qi vaguely heard him speak: "Miss Xiao, I want to redeem myself for you, I don't know if you are willing?" ”

For a moment, all the girls in the room were stunned, motionless, and they could smell the needles falling, as if they were stupid. For them, redemption is something that they can't think about day and night, even if an old man is willing to pay for ransom, no one will be unwilling.

After all, this Yuxian Tower is the land of the green building, no matter what kind of Qingqi people, there will still be a day, a pair of jade arms and thousands of pillows, half a little red lips and ten thousand people, who wants to?

It can be seen how shocking Gan Qi's words are to these girls.
