Chapter 143: The City of Dreams
Chang'an, the prosperous capital, is the city of dreams that Ning people yearn for. Countless scholars climbed mountains and waded through rivers, and came here early thousands of miles away, just to make a splash in the spring and achieve their dreams.
Shengpingfang Tanhua Building, Jiangnan scholar Yang Zhishou was lying on the bed, looking at the roof in a daze. After coming to Chang'an for more than ten days, the experience he encountered was as bizarre and incredible as a dream.
Yang Zhishou's family was not wealthy, and in order to make up enough for him to enter Beijing to participate in the Spring Festival Examination, he borrowed enough 10,000 copper coins. When I came to Chang'an, I just found an inn with a suitable price, but I found that the bag with copper coins on my body disappeared at some point.
God didn't keep his house, and he came to the newly built Caibo Xingjun Temple in the city in a daze, and wanted to ask for a place to stay. In the middle of the night, he was curled in the side hall, but he was knocked unconscious and taken away.
The warm hot water soaked his frozen and stiff body, Yang Zhishou woke up slowly, opened his eyes, and screamed in fright, as if he had climbed out of a wooden barrel.
A few pairs of jade hands unceremoniously pressed him in, and scrubbed his body vigorously with pancreas until his skin turned red, and then replaced it with a bucket of clean hot water to clean him.
It's over.,Most of the time I met a man-eating monster.,Wash yourself clean and eat it again.,I don't know if it's steamed or boiled.。 I've just become an adult, and I don't want to die yet! What to do, what to do?
Yang Zhishou was anxious, but he couldn't come up with any ideas.
A few beautiful young goblins who cleaned his body didn't care what Yang Zhishou thought. Wrapped him in a fragrant futon, pinched his nose, and poured him aphrodisiac soup and medicine, and his movements were very skillful.
When Yang Zhishou felt hot all over his body and had a strange reaction in his lower body, he had already been sent into a luxurious boudoir. On the soft and comfortable big bed, a middle-aged beautiful woman had misty eyes, and she looked like she had swallowed a lot of five stones.
Yang Zhishou, a boy chicken, did not escape the fate of being eaten by a female goblin in the end. Five days later, he was thrown out of the backyard with a high courtyard wall, along with two bags full of copper coins.
After regaining some strength, Yang Zhishou struggled to sit up and opened the bag full of copper coins. After a cursory look, the two bags of copper coins were about 30,000 yuan. Sighing slightly, Yang Zhishou thought about it, the hard work of these five days was worth it, at least he could use these copper coins to live in the inn, and he didn't have to go hungry and wander in Chang'an without any support.
The rising sun was a little dazzling, and the copper coins were also a little white. Yang Zhishou grabbed a handful of copper coins, looked at them carefully in the sun, and suddenly wanted to cry without tears.
"Labor and management have been innocent for 20 years, and they have been waiting hard day and night for five days, in exchange for tens of thousands of white dollars!" Yang Zhishou shouted silently in his heart, but he didn't have the courage to turn his head and reason with the fierce middle-aged female goblin, the tigress.
Walking falteringly, walking on the streets of Chang'an City in a daze, the aroma of food came from the end of his nose, and he suddenly felt hungry. Glancing at the carved fence and jade building beside him, Yang Zhishou secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva and dragged his steps to leave.
"This son, please stay! Childe has been wandering in Tianxian Tower for a long time, and he must have heard of the name of my Tianxian Tower. It's just that Childe came too early. ”
As the saying goes, the bustard loves Sister Qian and loves pretty. I went out early in the morning to buy some early Ping'er, and when I came back, I saw a handsome scholar with red lips and white teeth, carrying two bags of bulging copper coins in his hand, hovering at the door of Tianxian Building. As soon as his heart moved, he stepped forward to block Yang Zhishou's way.
With the little copper money in the hand of this handsome scholar, it is far from enough to meet those Oiran red girls in the building. No wonder this handsome scholar wandered and didn't dare to step forward.
For the sake of his good looks, my Ping'er will suffer a little loss, and it would be good to receive him, although it is too early at this hour.
Yang Zhishou glanced at the plump and beautiful woman in front of him, his face turned red, and he took a step back. Ping'er, who had read countless people, smiled slightly, and pulled Yang Zhishou into the Tianxian Tower.
After a few glasses of wine, the experienced Ping'er set out Yang Zhishou's life experience. She felt that she was not young, and suddenly had a strange thought
Law. The down-and-out scholar happened to meet the woman in the Qinglou, and they had feelings for each other, and when they were named on the gold list, they hugged the beauty, and they would have such a beautiful home?
Ping'er, who had been dreaming for a while, tried her best to wait for Yang Zhishou like falling into the clouds, in the clouds and fog, and she didn't know where she was. Liuli Pavilion bought jade pendants, and then went to Shangqing to view incense and open the light. Tie the jade pendant to Yang Zhishou's waist carelessly, and Ping'er's face was full of happiness.
After living in Ping'er's room for three days, Yang Zhishou's heart became more and more uneasy. The first is that the cost here makes his heart tremble, and the second is that he has always been taught by his father who teaches private school, and that scholars should know what to do. If his family learned that as soon as he came to Chang'an, he would always live in the Qinglou, and he would not break his legs by his old father? You must know that he went to Chang'an to take the exam, but he made a marriage with the daughter of a wealthy family in the town, the Yue family, but funded him a lot of copper coins.
With a red face, he handed two bags of white money to Ping'er several times. Ping'er pointed to her chest with a sad face, making Yang Zhishou more and more unaware of how to face this amorous woman.
One morning, after seeing Ping'er who was sleeping a few times, Yang Zhishou was ruthless, put two bags of white money on the table, and prepared to leave. Touching his shriveled pocket, he hesitated for a long time. Finally secretly opened the cabinet where Ping'er hid money, took out two bags of copper coins, and put the bag of white money there, and left as if he were fleeing.
The dazzling sunlight shone in through the window, making Yang Zhishou's room unusually bright. He squeezed his hand hard, grinning in pain. He touched the bag full of copper coins beside him, which was full of Huang Cancan's Tianyuan Tongbao. This is not a dream, I have now lived in Shengpingfang Tanhua Building, the inn where the famous Xiao Zhang Tanhua once lived. Yourself, you will definitely be a blockbuster, the title of the gold list. It's just that I always feel sorry for the beautiful woman in Tianxian Tower.
"Alas! What a big deal I said, isn't it just that someone exchanged your white money for tens of thousands of yellow dollars? You Ping'er has saved so much net worth, what is this little loss, can you use it to seek death and life? If you really can't think about it, I will compensate you for the 30,000 copper coins when I go. ”
After listening to Ping'er's crying, she was very disappreciative and shook her head again and again.
"Yo! married the daughter of the richest man in the Tang Dynasty, and his speech became more and more atmospheric. Do you really think Ping'er is sad, just for that little bit of yellow and white things! She was sad that she gave a piece of true love, but in exchange for two bags of white money. As a hard-working woman in Qinglou, she always has a little hope and a little dream. But now, her hopes, her dreams, have all been ruthlessly shattered, you say, can she not be sad to find death and life! ”
Gu Xihua glared at the road fiercely, and didn't know how to comfort Ping'er for a while.
"Since I knew it was a dream, I thought it was a sweet dream. Once a down-and-out scholar is in high school, he will naturally marry the daughter of a high-ranking official and a noble family, where will he remember you, a lowly Qinglou girl. Except for the singing and coaxing people in the acrobatics, where is there such a good thing in the world. Lu Lu muttered in his heart for a while, shook his head, and remained silent.
"I don't care, you must find out the untrustworthy reader for me. The sister who bullied my Gu Xihua, where can he be allowed to continue to be free. Gu Xihua grabbed the placket of the road and stared at him.
"This Chang'an City is so big, there are not tens of thousands of scholars who come to Beijing to participate in the Spring Festival. Where do you ask me to find this Jiangnan scholar named Yang Zhishou. A pair of eyes passed by and looked at Gu Xihua innocently.
"You don't come, don't think I don't know how powerful you are in the underground of Chang'an City. If you can't find the unkind, don't come to me. ”
Gu Xihua dropped such a sentence regardless of it, which made Ping'er stop crying, and with a pair of big eyes, she looked at the road brightly.
"Alas!" Lu sighed helplessly, such a big thing is going on, he wants to dispatch the Qingyun Club and the beggar gang disciples, I really don't know what to think about those brothers.
Yang Zhishou reads poetry and books behind closed doors, but for some reason, Ping'er's sad pretty face always appears in front of him. The ghost sent a messenger to the vicinity of the Tianxian Tower in Pingkangfang, looked at it secretly for a while, and left with a gloomy expression.
On the evening of the fourth day, when he appeared in the old place and secretly looked at the Tianxian Tower, one or two pitch-black and wide carriages stopped beside him.
"You called
Yang Zhishou, Gongsheng of Gaoyou County, Yangzhou Prefecture? A young man with a pale face and a blank expression came down from the carriage.
Yang Zhishou looked at the young man in a daze and nodded stupidly. A sack was under the cover of Yang Zhishou, and as soon as his eyes were dark, he felt that his body was sideways and he was taken into the carriage. Poor Yang Zhishou was taken away again.
However, this time he was greeted by a mature and glamorous female goblin who sucked people's bone marrow. In the tightly packed huts around him, he was greeted by several young men with sturdy bodies and unkind looks.
Yang Zhishou clamped his buttocks tightly, and his heart was inexplicably sad and angry. Chang'an, the capital that once filled itself with dreams, is full of demons and monsters.
"Squeak", opened the door and walked in, looked at Yang Zhishou a few times absently, and nodded.
"This kid gave birth to a good skin, and he almost caught up with Uncle Lu and me. No wonder Ping'er's girl has to hold on to the silver money. ”
Yang Zhishou's strange behavior quickly aroused the ideas of the people around Tianxian Tower. Liuliuzi personally went out and arrested Yang Zhishou back. However, the first thing he said when he saw this guy made Liuzi can't help but hold his mouth and don't look away.
Seeing that Hu Xiaoyun and Jiaokun brothers all looked disappreciative, they were a little angry.
"What do you mean! Could it be that in your eyes, I, who is in the wind in Yushu, am not as good as this guy? ”
"Young Master! There are more good-looking people in Chang'an City than you. In the future, you don't want to show off your looks anymore. Saturday was merciless, and he was embarrassed by a word.
found that Yang Zhishou smiled incomprehensibly on his face, and pointed to his nose angrily: "You little white face with a bad heart, you have simply lost all our men's faces." Other girls are infatuated with you, so it doesn't matter if you don't appreciate it. Fucking exchange white money for other people's good money, are you still a man! ”
"This big brother, I don't want to do this either, I didn't mean to cheat Miss Ping'er of money, but I had a hard time, so I had to do it!" Yang Zhishou made a bitter face and explained with a wail.
"If Uncle Ben is not satisfied, he will throw you into the big nullah, and feed the corpse to the fish." Lu smiled coldly and looked at Yang Zhishou fixedly.
However, when I passed by, I thought it was very scary, but I had no authority. Yang Zhishou hesitated for a long time, but he didn't say why.
The six fierce men with a sideways face couldn't stand it anymore, standing in front of Yang Zhishou, just a gentle "um", and Yang Zhishou was so frightened that he was urinating. In one go, all his experiences and difficulties in Chang'an will come out.
"Damn, there's such a good thing! I, Hu Xiaoyun, are so strong and mighty, why didn't any noble lady take me captive. The others were still surprised, but they didn't relent. Hu Xiaoyun couldn't help but stand up and patted his chest hard.
After passing by, he couldn't help laughing loudly, holding his stomach and pointing at Yang Zhishou's face: "I don't care if your money was stolen or not, and it doesn't matter if the noble lady threw you white money." You play my lady's good sister, you have to be responsible for me. ”
"But Xiaosheng has already decided to marry in his hometown, this matter of abandoning his wife and marrying another, even if you throw me into the big nullah, I can't do it." Yang Zhishou, who seems to be weak in Wenwen, also has a stubborn personality.
"Who asked you to abandon your wife and marry another, we all know Ping'er's identity. As long as the wife in your family who has not passed through the door is not a jealous woman, I think she can also tolerate you to marry a concubine. He waved impatiently to Yang Zhishou.
"Saturday, you send someone to investigate, you must find out that on the day this guy stayed in the Caibo Xingjun Temple, it was the noble lady who made incense there that day. Then take this guy in the backyard to identify the place and settle down. "I went on the road and gave an order to Saturday.
At this time, a long carriage was being dragged into a long queue and slowly drove into Chang'an.
Qi Dagui, a wealthy man in the south of the Yangtze River, looked at this long dragon with satisfaction, and sighed again and again: "Chang'an, it is really a rich and noble city, a dream city!" "Full Book - Free Full Book Reading Network
