Volume 2 Chapter 241 Smoke and Rain Xiangyang
Xiangyang City has existed since ancient times, the summer divides the world into Kyushu, and Xiangyang belongs to the domain of Jing and Henan. The Warring States fought for hegemony, and Chu was defeated by Qin. Qin annihilated Chu, and Xiangyang entered Qin. Qinzhi County, Xiangyang belongs to Nanjun County and Nanyang County! Xiangyang has always been an important economic and cultural center in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River.
Xiangyang is the birthplace of Jingchu culture, and inherited the end of the Han Dynasty and the Wei and Jin dynasties, in the Three Kingdoms period of nearly a hundred years of war and storms. Liu Bei looked at the thatched cottage and Zhuge Liang accurately analyzed the current situation and proposed the "Longzhong Pair", making Xiangyang the source of the formation of the pattern of the Three Kingdoms; At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the war in the north, Liu Biao led Jingzhou to "love the people and raise soldiers, calmly protect themselves", and governed Xiangyang to economic prosperity and social stability, becoming an "oasis" of tranquility in the troubled times, thousands of scholars came to Xiangyang, Zhuge Liang, Pang Degong, Pang Tong, Xu Shu, Cui Zhouping and a number of outstanding figures gathered in Xiangyang.
Xiangyang is located in the upper reaches of the Han River, where the east and west meet, and the north and south run through, "since the Han and Jin dynasties, it has become an important town", and is the most important city in the Han River Basin. The special geographical location makes Xiangyang a regional economic, political and cultural center in history, and an important and representative area in the Hanshui culture. It is mainly reflected in the long history of commercial civilization. The Han River is the most convenient, smoothest and busiest "golden waterway" of inland rivers in ancient China. Xiangyang is known as "the south ship and the north horse, the thoroughfare of the seven provinces", is the most important land and water wharf in the Han River Basin, the commercial civilization continues to this day, from the Han Dynasty Xiangyang "south aid three states, north set Kyoto, upper control Longdi, lower connected to the rivers and lakes, guide wealth and transport goods, Mao relocation has nothing"; To Xiangyang in the Tang Dynasty, "boats go back and forth, anchor on the shore, thousands of sails gather, and thousands of merchants gather".
At this time, Yuesheng and Gongsun Qi, who were drunk and full, Nan Haoer was wandering the streets of the city.
Although the scale of Xiangyang City is not as large as Chang'an City, the whole city is also antique, and there are more unique and smart cities in the south! Especially in Xiangyang City at night, warblers sing and swallow dance everywhere, and the sound of drum music is in your ears! Among the exquisite pavilions with carved buildings, the lights are brilliant! From time to time, I saw a carriage and a sedan chair stop at the door, and then under the traction of a beautiful woman dressed up at the door, the fish rushed in, and there was laughter and laughter everywhere!
In the prosperous and prosperous world, whether it is a dignitary or an ordinary person, they all find their own way of entertainment and frolic in this corner of the city, so as to pass the long time.
"It's still more exciting for ordinary people's lives!"
Gongsun Qi traveled all the way, looking at the scenery along the way, and couldn't help but sigh.
"You envy the life of mortals in the world, people envy you for wandering freely between heaven and earth, mortals are no more than a child, naturally they are happy in time, and those who can enjoy it will enjoy it to the fullest! And we live a long life, so we naturally have more ideas, I'm afraid you will change this life! I won't get used to it! ”
Nan Haoer replied.
"Definitely! Definitely! If I use my current self to exchange a mortal for a Jiazi lifespan! Life like this, I'm the reason! ”
Gongsun Qi pointed to the place where the warbler sang and danced in front of him.
"You know only the pleasures of mortals, but you do not know the sufferings of mortals! If we monks cultivate normally, although our life is ordinary, we will have no worries about food and clothing for a long time! But mortals are experiencing the painful torture of birth, old age, sickness and death all the time, and you look at their smiling faces, how do you know that they are really happy? It's nothing more than having fun in time and drinking to drown your sorrows! ”
Yuesheng, who has come all the way from ordinary people, naturally has more say in this issue, and the mothers and villagers in the village who can't cultivate are getting old day by day, how can they not let Yuesheng be silently sad.
"Tonight, we won't stay at the inn, take you to live a mortal life, go to those pavilions to play, and see the world!"
Seeing the curious gaze on Gongsun Qi's face from time to time, Yuesheng knew that Gongsun Qi wanted to see it deep down, but he was a little embarrassed and shy and didn't dare to bring it up.
"Forget it! Still not going! It probably doesn't make much sense. ”
Nan Hao'er had a noncommittal expression, but Gongsun Qi couldn't help but refuse Yuesheng's kindness when he heard it.
"Let's go! Go for tea, there's a lot of wine in it! With a little song, the taste is simply wonderful! ”
In fact, Yuesheng has never entered these Fengyue places, but he has never eaten pork and seen pigs run, you must know that Yuesheng has been in the capital for a long time! Judging from the words and deeds of the people, I don't know what is in those places! Now in front of Gongsun Qi, it is completely possible to insert green onions in the pig's head and pretend to be an elephant! Pretend to have a look of knowing what I know.
"Since Yuesheng has said so! Let's go in and have a look. Experiencing in the mortal world is also a kind of cultivation, isn't it? ”
Nan Hao'er immediately encouraged on the side.
"Since the junior sister and junior brother have this elegance, then let's go in and have a look? A drink or two? ”
Seeing Nan Hao'er and Yuesheng like this, Gongsun Qi immediately borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, and he was not insisting!
"Let's go! I see that the biggest Yixiang Yuan over there is very good, just that one! ”
Yuesheng pointed to the largest incense courtyard in front of him and said to the two.
Immediately, the three of them walked to the door of the store, and immediately walked out of the two beautiful girls, and glanced at the three of them, with a slight surprise in their eyes, I don't know why these two handsome men would bring a woman to visit the incense garden, but they still greeted them very politely.
"Two masters! Do you want to play in our Yixiangyuan? Our Yixiangyuan is the most fun place in Xiangyang City, there are the most beautiful girls, there are the biggest brands of Oiran, and the Chuchu girl happened to come to my Yixiangyuan as a guest in the past two days, and she will also sing a little song for everyone tonight! Oh, Miss Chu Chu's figure, that voice, that little song, I don't know how many descendants she has fascinated! I was fortunate enough to hear the little song sung by Miss Chu Chu, and I looked back and bragged about it! ”
Seeing that the three of them were a little wandering, the girl immediately explained to the three of them.
"Alright! Since Miss Chu Chu is here, let's go in and have a look? ”
Yuesheng glanced at Gongsun Qi and Nan Hao'er, and pretended to consult.
"Good! Then let's see! ”
Nan Hao'er was too lazy to be polite, and immediately slipped away and missed the two girls, so she was about to squeeze into the gate of the pavilion.
"Hey! Wait a minute! I haven't paid the hall fee yet! Ten trucks of silver for one person! The three of you have a total of thirty taels! ”
The girl stretched out her hand towards Yuesheng, these people have a very strong ability to observe words and feelings, and at a glance it can be seen that this group of people is Yuesheng in charge!
"So expensive?"
Yuesheng pretended to be a little painful!
"Oops! This is the best venue in Xiangyang City, and these two days are the days when Miss Chu Chu performs, which is naturally more expensive than usual! ”。
"Alright! Here you go! ”
Yuesheng immediately paid the entrance fee, and under the guidance of the two girls, he walked into the house.
