Chapter 525: Pingkangfang

"This...

Li Jian glanced up at Liu Chenyan and the others in the car, and immediately lowered his head, a little hesitant, hesitating, and didn't dare to speak.

"What can't be said?" Li Ye was a little displeased.

"Your Majesty, the minister doesn't dare." Li Jian hurriedly saluted, "Your Majesty, it's just that this place is a little special, and the scholars who participate in the imperial examination generally like to go to Pingkangfang." ”

"Pingkangfang?"

Li Ye was stunned for a moment, and then understood why Li Jian was so hesitant, this place was indeed a little embarrassing.

"What kind of place is Pingkangfang?"

Zhang Manhua and Mi Duo, who had never been in Chang'an, obviously didn't know what this place meant.

"This..."

Li Ye didn't know how to answer, but Li Jian had already run away, the carriage was too dangerous, so he had to stay away, so as not to harm the pond fish later.

"Men aren't good things." Liu Chenyan pouted.

"Sister, what kind of place is this Pingkangfang?" Mi Duo said curiously.

Liu Chenyan and He Hanyan knew, but they didn't want to answer, so Li Ye could only bite the bullet.

Xuanzong Dynasty's "Kaiyuan Tianbao Legacy" volume 2: "Chang'an has Pingkangfang, where prostitutes live, and there are few chivalrous people in Kyoto, which are gathered here. …… At the time, people called this workshop a merry Yazawa. ””

"Whoa! Dirty! ”

When Zhang Manhua heard this, his face couldn't help but blush, "Your Majesty, they are scholars, how can they go to that kind of place?" ”

Li Ye said with a smile, "It's been like this since the founding of the Tang Dynasty. Meng Jiao's "After Dengke", Hanyan should have heard it. ”

He Hanyan nodded, "Back to Your Majesty, the concubine heard that it was probably Meng Jiao who rode a horse to enjoy the flowers after the middle lift, celebrating the lift." ”

Li Ye smiled and shook his head, "His original text is 'In the past, it was not enough to boast, but now it is debauchery. The spring breeze is proud, and you can see all the Chang'an flowers in one day. But this Chang'an flower is not a peony, a flower like the moon season.

Do you know where Meng Jiao rode his horse after lifting his horse? ”

Liu Chenyan hesitated, "Your Majesty, it won't be Pingkangfang." ”

Li Ye nodded, "The first thing he went to was Pingkangfang, and this so-called 'Chang'an flower' is not a real flower, but the famous prostitutes in Pingkangfang."

Not only Meng Jiao, but also Li Bai, Bai Juyi, Yuan Zhen, Li Yi, Li Shangyin, etc., as long as I am a famous poet in the Tang Dynasty, I have not gone to Pingkangfang. Let's just say that this Li Bai, many poems are created in this Pingkangfang, there are two sentences 'A thousand cups of green wine why get drunk, and a red makeup is annoying and killing', this is what he wrote to the famous prostitute Duan Qiniang.

If there is no Pingkangfang, my Datang poems will be at least half. ”

Li Ye is not exaggerating, this is indeed a fact, in later generations, Pingkangfang is indeed the largest red light district in Chang'an City, and it is officially recognized.

Of course, the prostitutes in Ping Hong Fong are not simple.

It's not the kind of future life where you spend money and the other party starts exercising as soon as he lies down on the bed.

The women of Pingkangfang are all proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and many of them are directly famous women from their families. In the middle of the Tang Dynasty, there was a famous prostitute named Huo Xiaoyu, who was a member of the Li Tang royal family, and his father was King Huo, but later the concubine was driven out by his brother and finally reduced to Kabuki.

Kabuki is called 'Qing Qi Ren', which is the so-called selling of art without selling his body, as for whether he really sells his body or not, Li Ye doesn't know if it is not.

Moreover, one-third of the famous female poets in the Tang Dynasty are prostitutes from Pingkangfang.

The talented ones are the guests of these women in Pingkangfang, and the people who can make them sweep the bed. If you don't have talent, you can stay where you are cool, and even the magnates of Chang'an City may not be able to enter their eyes.

"Excuses!" Liu Chenyan pursed her lips, "I didn't expect these literati to have one thing in their mouths and one thing in private, I have to expose them!"

Let's go, let's go to Pingkangfang! ”

The eunuch who was driving the car was a little hesitant, and Li Ye smiled, "Let's go to Pingkangfang to have a look." ”

After confirming that the saint was going to Pingkangfang, Link and Li Jian were relieved, and with a specific place, it would be much easier to arrange security.

Both of them said to their cronies and asked the people below to strengthen their vigilance near Pingkangfang.

。。。。。。

This year's imperial examination is still in May, and now there is only one month before the imperial examination, and the people who come to participate in the imperial examination have basically arrived, after all, if you don't register in advance, you can't take the exam.

Moreover, the Ministry of Rites also has to verify the qualifications of these people who participate in the imperial examination, after all, not everyone can participate in the imperial examination.

Either you are a township tribute who has passed the state and county exams, or you are an apprentice from Chang'an and local state and county schools, you always have to take one to take the exam.

Although the exam is approaching, Pingkang Fang is still full of guests at this time.

All the green buildings in Pingkang Fang are hung with red lanterns in front of the door, and the main entrance is wide open to welcome guests.

Tianxiang Pavilion, one of the largest green buildings in Pingkangfang, is also one of the famous gold caves in Chang'an in recent years.

Looking at the name, I also know that Tianxiang Pavilion is related to Tianxiangju, because this is opened by He Dong's guy.

Although He Dong is not in the office, his status in Chang'an City is not low.

He is an imperial businessman, and at the same time, the queen in the harem is his cousin, He Xiuyi is his cousin, Liu Qi, the Duke of Shu, is his uncle, and Shengshang is his brother-in-law.

Whoever dares to provoke him, who dares to despise him.

Pingkangfang Qinglou made money, and he naturally would not miss this opportunity to make money, so he spent a huge amount of money to open this Tianxiang Pavilion.

Tonight's Tianxiang Pavilion in front of the door of the guests is endless, a long carriage stopped in front of the door, and the laughter and laughter from inside come one after another, making the people passing by envious.

However, the threshold of Tianxiang Pavilion is not low, and ordinary people can't get in, and some people who are powerless are looking for other green buildings, planning to have a good time.

"I didn't expect that there are so many people in Xiangge today, it's very lively!"

Looking at the Tianxiang Pavilion in front of him, Liu Can walked out of the carriage with the fan in his hand, isn't it the dress of a handsome boy? It's just that I'm a little older.

"Brother Liu doesn't know, not to mention that there are a few girls in Tianxiang Pavilion today, and there is also Wang Funiang, the top prostitute of Tianxiang Pavilion, which naturally attracted many young talents." A slightly younger reader next to him said with a smile.

"Wang Funiang? Is it the prostitute with Sun Di's song "Gift Prostitute Wang Funiang"?

This is a matter of the Guangming Dynasty, isn't this Wang Funiang not young? How can it still be sought after by so many people? Liu Can didn't understand, but he had heard of Sun Di.

"Brother Liu is cautious."

The scholar next to him looked around, and then lowered his voice, "Wang Funiang is indeed nearly thirty years old this year, but she still has charm, and the younger brother has met a few times, and he is also a little excited."

It's a pity that Sun Di abandoned this beauty, it is said that Sun Di lived in Pingkangfang every day at that time, and had a close relationship with this Wang Funiang.

However, during the several disasters in Guangming and Zhonghe, Chang'an was unrecognizable, and the younger brother only occasionally heard people talk about it, but I don't know how it is. ”

"Brother Liu Xian, I didn't expect to see you here."

Just as Liu Can was about to enter the Tianxiang Pavilion, a familiar voice came from behind him. Liu Can looked back, who was it not Du Xunhe.
