Chapter 92 ***
By this time, the moon had risen in the east, and there were no clouds in the sky. Fanlou, the prestigious royal street, saw the lights on both sides of the street brilliantly, and the Yanyue signs one after another. No wonder some people wrote a poem: "If you want to seal the marquis of ten thousand households, go to the green building every night." ”
Because of the frequent reception of the emperor, Fan Lou is now renovated. Some of the craftsmen who presided over were still the masters of the Great Inner assigned by Huizong of the Song Dynasty, and they were built by drawing on the calyx of Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty in the Tang Dynasty. Tang Xuanzong's calyx building is friendly and fraternal, and Song Huizong's Fan Lou's golden house is beautiful, which is interesting.
There are five floors in the east, south, west, north and middle of the Fan Building, and the fifth floor is built according to the direction. There are flying bridge railings in the middle, winding paths and verandahs, and light and dark are connected. It is also luxuriously decorated, beaded curtain embroidered pavilion, and at night, the candle flame is brilliant, like day.
As soon as the four of them walked to the door of the Fan Tower, they saw two cousins standing on each side waiting, and one of the cousins on the side looked at the appearance of the four people, and immediately greeted them eagerly, and took the initiative to say: "A few masters, please!" ”
Yang Lin took out a quick piece of silver from his pocket, threw it to Xiao Er, and said, "I'll wait for the first time to come, and choose a quieter place." ”
The cousin has been sophisticated for a long time and is used to seeing all kinds of characters. Secretly checked the silver, felt that there were two or three taels, and felt that Wang Lun and the others were really high rollers.
The cousin suddenly smiled, and while leading Wang Lun and the four into the building, he said, "Little Uncle Xie's reward!" Tonight, a few masters, eating, drinking and having fun will be served by the small ones, and a few will be satisfied. ”
Entering the interior of the Fan Tower, there is a long corridor with about 100 steps. At this time, the stars outside are dotted, and the lights and candles in the building are brilliant. On both sides of this corridor, there are hundreds of women dressed in bright clothes, standing or sitting, in groups of three or five. Yan is thin and fat, charming and pure, and so on.
Li Kui is still a boy chicken, reckless and curious by nature, unlike Shi Jin and Yang Lin who know how to avoid it. But he is not shy about it, looking left and right, and from time to time he clicks his lips.
Shi Jin saw that Li Kui was out of luck, so he secretly touched Li Kui with his arm. "Iron Bull, be careful!"
"Ah...... What did Shi Dalang say? Unexpectedly, Li Kui was touched by this Shi Jin, and said "ahhhh
The various warblers and warblers in the corridor are usually used to being depressed, and it is the first time they have seen a character like Li Kui. One by one, they laughed, and their beautiful eyes flowed.
Wang Lun looked calm, but Shi Jin and Yang Lin were embarrassed because Li Kui was being teased, and their faces were very unnatural.
Seeing a guest coming in, a group of beauties who were close to each other waved their hands and beckoned to attract business.
The cousin saw that Shi Jin and the others were vaguely headed by Wang Lun, and took the initiative to introduce: "There is Li Xingshou in the building, and Cui is a leader in Tokyo." In addition, there are Deng Ziyi, Cai Yiling, and Yang Yujing, who have a tactful singing voice and are beautiful and delicious. If you are interested, you can find these flower cards. ”
The head of Li Xing mentioned by this cousin is Master Li, and the Cui family is Cui Niannu under him, and the rest are also the top brands of Fan Lou.
Hearing this question, Wang Lun remembered one more thing. Shi Jin is also a hot-blooded man, and in his original trajectory, he got involved with the famous prostitute Li Ruilan in Dongchang Mansion and was betrayed by him. In this life, Shi Jin followed him, and he couldn't say that he wanted to find a daughter-in-law for him and tie him to a halter.
Wang Lun also had to take care of the feelings of the brothers, looked at the three of them and asked, "What do the three brothers think?" ”
Only then did Li Kui know that the women here were all for others to have fun, and he didn't consciously get up, and lowered his head weakly.
Yang Lin is not a junior brother, and when he heard Wang Lun's inquiry, his eyes were rolling around. And Shi Jinyin on the side is a boy, although he is curious, he is silent.
Wang Lun saw the meaning of the three of them, and said directly to the cousin: "Let's find a few Qingqi people with my brother, but don't want the famous flower cards!" ”
The cousin answered, and was about to leave to make arrangements, but was stopped by Li Kui.
I only heard Li Kui say to Wang Lun: "Brother! I only love to eat and drink and gamble, don't count me in. ”
Wang Lun didn't agree, and the cousin didn't do what Li Kui said. Not long after, four beautiful women came, and Wang Lun and the four of them went to a private room in the east building.
These are "Guizhu Meilan", the new West Lake skinny horses invited by our Fan Lou, collectively known as the "Four Shows". The hall was the most diligent, and while admiring several beauties who came over, he praised Fan Lou. "Our Fan Building is divided into five floors: east, south, west, north and middle, the west building is the largest, but it is facing the palace, and it is the place where you usually receive nobles. Therefore, condescend to a few masters to have a drink in this east building. ”
The so-called "Four Shows", "Three Wonders", "Eight Uniques" and other names are just clever names for restaurants in order to make money.
The people who come and go to Fanlou are either rich or expensive, and this hall man specially said that the "nobles" are today's officials. He mentioned it just to build momentum for Fan Lou and attract Wang Lun and others.
Wang Lun sat down with the four of them, and the hall waited, and the two of them played the piano and sang the lyrics, which also had a bit of charm.
After listening to it for a while, Wang Lun asked quietly: "The little brother who came into contact with officials and nobles in Fanlou are all high-ranking officials, what are the anecdotes when he comes into Tokyo?" As he spoke, Wang Lun handed a piece of silver to the cousin.
When the four Qing people saw it, they couldn't help but blush, and Wang Lun also gave one of them an ingot.
The cousin took the money, thanked him again and again, and his heart raced. If you want to talk about the gonzo of Tokyo coming in, it should be that the official family became the guest of Master Li. In the past year, as the official family has been out of the palace more and more frequently, the matter of the two has gradually spread in Tokyo.
But the cousin didn't dare to say this. A few days ago, the imperial historian Cao Fu played directly, "Easy to serve and go to a prostitute's house, since Your Majesty." denounced Huizong's absurdity and dislike of a human king. provoked Huizong to be angry and demoted him to the remote Chenzhou.
In their line of work, it is most important to judge the situation and observe words and colors. Seeing that Wang Lun cared about all kinds of news in Tokyo, he also picked a few things to tell Wang Lun.
I couldn't talk about the emperor, so I talked about a few things about the officials.
The first is the matter of being the imperial master Cai Jing, such as his son-in-law's Daimyo Mansion who stayed behind and lost his father-in-law's birthday, Cai Jing loves to eat duck tongue, and the house has to kill thousands of ducks every day, or someone has become a so-and-so official through his relationship.
The second talked about Tong Guan and Gao Yu, Tong Guan defeated the Xia people in the northwest and was rewarded by the official family. Gao Yu had no heirs and adopted a younger brother of the same clan as a son.
The third one is about the students and scholars who are studying in Taixue today, such as Chen Dong, a student of Danyang Taixue, who "has a handsome voice and a strong personality". The imperial court made great music, and once ordered the students to learn to play, choose a day to try in the palace, and move the official to reward, Chen Dong resigned, saying: "How can there be such a thing, in case there is, I can get lucky to enter the body?" Chen Dong was upright and selfless, and he did not care about poverty, which amazed the students.
There is another scholar surnamed Jiang Ningqin, who has never been named on the gold list, and is studying in Tokyo. He was very dissatisfied with his living situation, and once wrote a poem saying, "If you get 300 acres of paddy fields, you will not be the king of the monkey." “
The fourth one is an anecdote on the street, Xiaolang Zhonghuang Qianshan loves the famous prostitute Zhao Yuannu, but he is the concubine of Zhang Bangchang, the Chinese scholar, and was scolded by Zhang Bangchang.
In addition, many foreigners came from Tohoku, and a large number of ginseng and mink skins were sold, which caused the price of goods in Tokyo to drop. Tokyo's Silver Hook Gambling House was smashed, the unbeatable cow died, and so on.
The cousin said so much that his mouth was dry. When Wang Lun saw that he was working hard, he rewarded him with another piece of silver. This hall will ponder people's hearts, and these few things are to Wang Lun's favor.
