Xue Shao, who rode his horse and left the palace wall, did not go home as soon as he usually did, but turned his head and went in the opposite direction of Taipingfang, which was a merry Xue Ze that once made him linger and famous-Pingkangfang.

In today's Tang Dynasty, prostitution is not a shameful ugly thing, on the contrary, it has fulfilled many romantic stories of talented and beautiful people. But Xue Shaozhi has never been patronizing since he met Princess Taiping, so as soon as he appeared today, many people were shocked on the spot.

People can't help but think of Zhang Miao, who is now buried on the top of the clouds and mist in the south of the country. Therefore, even if Xue Shao was a well-known amorous high-roller in Chang'an City, those charcoal bustards and turtle slave girls only dared to watch from awe from awe, and they didn't even have the courage to come forward to say hello.

Among the past guests, there were many officials and even Xue Shao's former generals. When these people saw Xue Shaodouran appear in Pingkangfang, they were all stunned. The first thing that comes to mind is ...... Could it be that he fell out with Princess Taiping?

Xue Shao rode his mighty dragon horse swaggering through Pingkangfang, and the destination seemed to be quite clear, and he stopped directly in front of the mansion of Su Xiaoyan, a famous prostitute in Beijing.

The door was open, and when Xue Shao turned over and dismounted, a small turtle slave hurriedly ran out. At first glance, it was clear that it was Xue Shao, and the little turtle slave's mouth trembled, "Little, villain...... Cf. ......"

"Alright, take care of the horses." Xue Shao casually threw him a string of copper coins, "Guo Dafeng or the two generals of the party Jinbi, have you ever been here?" ”

"If you go back to the horse, General Guo is drinking in the small pavilion accompanied by Miss Su."

"Extra seats, more wine!"

Xue Shao strode in. The few charcoal tortoise slaves in the small courtyard suddenly became busy, and hurriedly added seats to buy wine and buy a new banquet. Guo Dafeng was listening to the song and drinking wine with a smile, and suddenly glanced at Xue Shao, who broke in like thunder and lightning at the gate, and was so frightened that the cup fell off on the spot, and even crawled up to meet him.

"Subordinate ......"

"Excuse me." Xue Shao strode past him, pulled over a couch and sat down first, "There are only drinking friends today, not up and down." ”

"Subordinates obey!" Guo Dafeng stood up tremblingly, stood aside, and didn't dare to move his eyes.

"Sit down and drink with me." Xue Shao nodded at Su Xiaoyan, who was stunned opposite, "Play a song, "Guangling Stops." ”

"Yes......" Su Xiaoyan was far more calm than Guo Dafeng. With a soft answer, she played the lute.

Once, in Pingkangfang, a place where romance gathered, Zhang Xiaoxiao's poems and Su Xiaoyan's piano were a double masterpiece. "Guangling Stops" is the masterpiece "Guangling San", and there is no second person in Chang'an City who can play better than Su Xiaoyan.

With the sound of music, Xue Shao kept drinking one glass after another, and didn't say much. Guo Dafeng trembled and drank violently, and after a few strokes, the alcohol surged and his face turned red, and he was about to get drunk. But he didn't dare to retreat, so he had to sacrifice his life to accompany him.

"You're too bad for drinking." Xue Shao put down the cup and spit out a strong sip of wine, "It's not as good as a woman." ”

Guo Dafeng smiled bitterly, "The subordinates are indeed ...... It's hard to drink! ”

"If she doesn't give up, the little girl is willing to have two drinks with her son." Su Xiaoyan gave birth to an empathetic and exquisite heart.

Xue Shao smiled indifferently, "You're not afraid of death?" ”

Su Xiaoyan also smiled faintly, "Please add wine to your son." ”

Guo Dafeng suddenly jumped up and ran to the backyard, and immediately let out a wild vomiting sound.

Xue Shao smiled, "This person often calls himself a wine bag and rice bag, but that's it!" ”

Su Xiaoyan smiled but said nothing, and poured Xue Shao full of wine.

I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional, Guo Dafeng didn't come back after he went, and he was drunk in the backyard and was carried by the owner of the house to rest. Xue Shao didn't move his feet anymore, and was accompanied by Su Xiaoyan, still drinking glass after glass, still rarely speaking.

Su Xiaoyan's alcohol consumption is indeed much stronger than Guo Dafeng. Even when Xue Shao was half drunk, she could still play "Guangling Stop" vividly.

Halfway through the song, there were suddenly several exclamations of an old woman at the gate of the courtyard, as if she had killed someone. Xue Shao turned his head to look, and the old mother who took care of Su Xiaoyan ran in in despair, and knelt down on Xue Shao's knees, "Son, help!" ”

At the gate, the Linlang sisters were walking side by side.

Last time, the two of them appeared in Zhang Miao's courtyard like this, killing them with one sword. Since then, the two sisters have become famous in Pingkangfang, and have become the soul messengers of every family.

Su Xiaoyan was very calm, still playing her pipa intently, without even the slightest change in timbre.

The charcoal bustard kowtowed desperately on the ground, and his forehead was bleeding. When Linlang was about to walk to the front, she even slipped to the side and ran away, no longer caring about Su Xiaoyan.

"Slave and maid see ......" Linlang visited, but was interrupted by Xue Shao with a raised hand.

"You're here to kill again?"

Linlang was a little stammered, "...... Slaves don't dare! ”

"Then what should I do, don't be an eyesore here." Xue Shao put the glass on the wine table, and his voice was a little deep.

The Linlang sisters were stunned at the same time, didn't say anything more, and bowed down and retreated.

Su Xiaoyan's piano sound is still ringing, and the timbre has not changed.

The charcoal bustard poked his head out of the small door in the backyard, wiped a cold sweat, and hurriedly went into the kitchen to get busy.

Xue Shao poured himself ten cups in a row, and the wine pot bottomed out.

"I'm going to be here for ten days." Xue Shao picked up the wine jug and shook it, a little bit of asking Qingtian about the wine, "Who dares to accompany me?" ”

……

So Xue Shao really got drunk in Su Xiaoyan's house in Pingkangfang for ten days, did not go home, and did not go to court.

Miraculously, except for the first day, when the family's concubine Linlang came to look for her, Princess Taiping's Mansion never sent anyone to ask. There is no way to talk about killing people to vent their anger.

What's even more amazing is that Xue Shao didn't come to the court, and Empress Dowager Wu didn't blame her, and she didn't even ask a word. It's just that he is not recuperating at home due to illness.

Shortly after noon on the tenth day, Xue Shao was still drinking, Guo Dafeng couldn't straighten his waist, and Su Xiaoyan's piano sound was as endless as before. In the small courtyard, an unexpected uninvited guest came.

The white-clothed Shengxue held the dust in her hand, floating like a fairy, and the beauty of the city made Su Xiaoyan ashamed of herself...... Women's crown.

Xue Shao, who was half-drunk and slightly scented, squinted at her, and immediately smiled, "Su Xiaoyan, you can step back today." ”

"Yes......" Su Xiaoyan agreed, holding her pipa and quietly retreating.

"Fairy Gu, please take a seat!"

Xuan Yunzi smiled slightly and sat down calmly in front of Xue Shao. He looked around and said, "It is indeed a pure place." ”

"Where the sound is confused, how can you say that it is pure?" Xue Shao asked with a smile.

"Pure birth is turbid, and that is the beauty of it." Xuanyunzi took a new cup and poured it with wine, "Poor Dao respects the son." ”

"Wait." Xue Shao raised his hand, "Tell me first, who sent you?" ”

"No one is appointed by anyone who is outside the poor road." Xuan Yunzi said, "If the heart moves, the person will arrive." ”

"Okay, this glass of wine is ready to drink." Xue Shao smiled, "Immortal Gu, please!" ”

"Please!"

Guo Dafeng threw up violently for a while, leaned against the wall and staggered, was grabbed by Su Xiaoyan, and carried into the side hall and never showed his head again.

"If the son wants to keep his head down, he doesn't have to mutilate his body." Xuanyunzi, who drank the first glass of wine, said lightly, "The wine is as white as a knife, scraping bones and breaking intestines." ”

Xue Shao laughed.

For the first time in ten days, I laughed so heartily.

"The wine is only half scented, as for the color," Xue Shao smiled...... "It's already ten days and I don't know the taste of meat." ”

Xuan Yunzi smiled. There are really not many people who dare to say such amorous things in front of her.

"The foul language is abrupt and beautiful, and Xue will punish himself with three cups." Xue Shao began to pour wine.

Xuan Yunzi smiled slightly disapprovingly, and quietly watched Xue Shao drink three cups by himself.

Xue Shao glanced at her inadvertently, and suddenly felt that the smile on Xuan Yunzi's face at this moment had a bit of "mother" charm.

Maybe it's because of a few more glasses of wine, so the heartstrings in my heart are easy to be stirred up. Xuan Yunzi's quiet and tolerant smile inexplicably made Xue Shao's heart feel a burst of comfort, as well as long-lost sadness and nostalgia.

If it weren't for the fact that he still had some control, Xue Shao really wanted to pill his head on Xuan Yunzi's thigh, close his eyes, and let her stroke his sideburns and hair.

It's like taking a nap in the afternoon when I was a child, comforted by my mother.

"You're so tired." Xuan Yunzi said softly.

Xue Shao's hand holding the wine jug suddenly trembled, then he smiled, poured a glass for Xuan Yunzi and handed it over.

"But you have a good wife." Xuan Yunzi said again.

Xue Shao nodded with a smile on his face, no wife can allow her husband to soak in a prostitute for ten days and not come home. Today's Princess Taiping is no longer the Princess Taiping who sent Linlang to take someone's life in a fit of anger.

"She's really good." Xue Shao said.

"It's because she's so nice that you don't want to go home and face her now." Xuan Yunzi said, "The court dispute between you and the Empress Dowager Wu has been known to the whole country. ”

Xue Shao smiled and did not speak.

"Most people think that your relationship with Empress Dowager Wu has been cracked since then, and your future will no longer be bright, even worrying." Xuan Yunzi said.

Xue Shao still smiled indifferently, "What else?" ”

"There are also a few people who feel that your relationship with the Empress Dowager Wu is stronger than before." Xuan Yunzi said, "Because, you are the person that Empress Dowager Wu needs the most now." ”

"Who?"

"The soul of the army, the pillar of the society."

Xue Shao said with a smile: "Immortal Gu, Immortal Gu, you claim to be an outsider, but you are so well-informed that even Prime Minister Shangshu sighs to himself." ”

Xuan Yunzi smiled indifferently and said: "Gongzi slapped him three times, and he made the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty ashamed, and the Turkic envoys were terrified. The officers and men of all armies have not yet burned their fighting spirit, and the whole country will no longer dare to settle for false peace. ”

Xue Shao smiled: "I'm obviously beating myself." ”

Xuan Yunzi didn't argue, but said: "Empress Dowager Wu toasts three glasses of wine, and the same enemy as the Tang Dynasty soldiers is as righteous as a robe, so that the Turkic wolf who is proud to bully the Tang Dynasty woman to govern the country suddenly woke up and did not dare to despise it." ”

Xue Shao smiled but said nothing.

"The whole dynasty is up and down, and only the prince understands the deep meaning of the queen mother's combination of rigidity and softness, and grace and power." Xuan Yunzi said, "At the state banquet, everyone is looking at the place, and the prince and the queen mother cooperate seamlessly, and even their own people are convinced. Such tacit understanding and subtlety are impressive! ”

Xue Shao smiled noncommittally, "Do you still drink this wine?" ”

"This is the wine of the countrymen who protect the country, the people, and the ambition of Yunpeng." Xuanyunzi raised a glass -

"Drink it full!"
