Chapter Thirty-Eight: A Marriage

Gao Ye and the two walked together in the market, enjoying the scenery of Luoyang while listening to Cao Cao talk about Luoyang. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

"This Luoyang City is called 'Ninety-Six City', do you know why? That's because this Luoyang, nine miles from north to south, six miles from east to west, is such a majestic city, and it is worthy of being the capital of the Han Dynasty. ”

"Zhou Tianzi founded Luoyang City until today. In fact, Gaozu also set the capital here, but the world was settled, people's hearts were unstable, and coupled with the persuasion of Lou Jing and Zhang Liang, he moved to Chang'an. ”

"This Luoyang city has always been easy to defend and difficult to attack, there are dangers on all sides, there are Hangu Pass in the west, Tongguan in the west to look at Chang'an, Yique, Guangcheng, Dagu, Xuanyuan four passes in the south are close to Jingzhou, there are revolving gate passes in the east, Tiger Prison Pass is the Xiongguan Pass in the world, there are Tianjing, Heyang, Yiguan, Xiaopingjin in the north to prevent the Huns, it is really free to advance and retreat, Emperor Guangwu is because of the Luoyang City, which lays the foundation of the imperial industry, pacifies the green forest and red eyebrows, and rejuvenates the Han Dynasty."

Cao Cao has completely turned into a competent tour guide, and there are high nights on the side to ask from time to time, which is even more fun for Cao Cao. Cao Cao's flaunting knowledge really opened Gao Ye's eyes, although as a later generation, there are countless channels to obtain information, but for this Luoyang City 1,800 years ago, do you know that even if there are many, can you compare to the people who really live in this city? Cao Cao is worthy of being Cao Cao, for a while to talk about the geography of mountains and rivers, and to talk about the customs and customs for a while, from time to time to quote a classic, if it weren't for Gao Ye to know that he was from Qian County, I am afraid that Cao Cao is a native of Luoyang.

In fact, it's not wrong to say that he is from Luoyang, after all, he grew up in Luoyang since he was a child, but later his father was not an official, so he returned to his hometown in Qiaoxian County.

However, for Luoyang, Gao Ye really sighed, it is worthy of being the imperial capital of the Han Dynasty, and the prosperity is really not comparable to a small city like Wuyuan. The military camp was located in the northeast corner of Luoyang, so Cao Cao also took Gao Ye to the small market in Luoyang first, but unfortunately most of the food and livestock sold here were hard, so it was naturally difficult to arouse Gao Ye's interest.

"This is a small market, if the army is short of meat, you can send someone to buy here, in this Luoyang City, if you really want to find some good things, you have to go to the big market, not to mention that there is prosperous, far from being comparable here, the best Qinglou in Luoyang City (forgive me for not knowing what the Qinglou of the Han Dynasty is called, and replace it with the Qinglou) drunk full of buildings is there. Although the city is close to the left and there are many green buildings, this drunken building is really a first-class good place. Cao Cao couldn't help laughing. Gao Ye even saw a hint of debauchery in his smile.

For the Qinglou in the Han Dynasty, to be honest, Gao Ye had already had the idea of finding out, after all, in a ghost place like Wuyuan, how could there be such a magical thing as a Qinglou? What the people think about every day, in addition to how to fill their stomachs, is how to resist the Huns, and who is in the mood to do this skin and meat trade. But Luoyang is different, as the imperial capital of the Han Dynasty, the degree of prosperity can be imagined, coupled with countless dignitaries living here, the green building industry has naturally developed. Gao Ye knew that this kind of livelihood that began with the "Nulu" founded by Guan Zhong was not banned by law until 1,800 years later, but the law could only prohibit the existence of Qinglou, but could not eliminate the meat business.

Gao Ye couldn't help but smile and said, "Even Brother Meng De said so, so how can you not go and see it?" ”

The two of them left the small city and went straight to Qingyangmen. Passing through the inner city, from the Ximing Gate out, rushing to Lejin, the two of them were on foot, so although they went out at noon, when they arrived at this legendary drunken building, the sky was already dark.

Obviously, Cao Cao often comes, as soon as the old bustard saw Cao Cao, he smiled like a flower, shook his handkerchief and came over: "Lord Cao, why are you free to come today?" ”

Cao Cao laughed and said: "Didn't I just come back from the expedition, hurry up, call Bian everyone to come and play the qin, I can tell you, my friend, but the famous and Zhou brave general Gao Ye, the famous and famous, I want to come here You have also heard of it, the service is not good, be careful that he smashes your shop." ”

"Hey, my Lord Cao, don't worry, I'll invite you to go. Quick, take Lord Cao and them upstairs to see the seats. ”

The two of them just sat down, and Cao Cao said: "Let me tell you, this Bian family is really the top brand in this drunken building, and her piano skills are superb, and no matter how many people want to see her, they can't get it." If it weren't for the good poems I wrote, which won the favor of everyone Bian, otherwise, you wouldn't have heard what is called nature. ”

Gao Ye was stunned when he heard this, Cao Cao is thirty years old, how can he go to the Qinglou and be the same as a young man of seventeen or eighteen, he actually shows off, I really don't know how good this Bian family can be, and Cao Cao is happy like this! Wait, Bian? Qinglou woman, I'm going to go, it won't be Queen Wu Xuanbian who married Cao Cao later and gave birth to Cao Pi, Cao Chong, Cao Zhi, and Cao Xiong. Gao Ye couldn't help but shudder.

As soon as everyone Bian appeared, even Gao Ye's breathing couldn't help but suffocate, this Bian everyone moved the lotus step lightly, her posture was graceful, and the two little maids behind her helped her hold the piano, and as soon as she came in, she gave the two of them a salute. To say that this Bian family is now in his twenties, but his face is petite, as if he is as old as the two maids behind her. And not to mention how fresh and beautiful she looks, just that breath of dust made Gao Ye swallow his saliva.

And her clothes are not gorgeous, but she gives people a feeling of being like a fairy, and she talks elegantly, which is by no means comparable to ordinary girls.

Cao Cao saw that Gao Ye's whole person was stunned, and he couldn't help laughing, Gao Ye was startled by Cao Cao's laughter, and then he reacted to his gaffe. immediately gave the Bian family a return salute.

"The little girl heard that Lord Cao and General Gao were coming today, and she specially played a song for the two generals." As soon as Bian's voice came out, it was even more like a yellow warbler, crisp and moving.

Cao Cao and Gao Ye both had an expression of "hurry up, just waiting for you to play the piano", and everyone Bian naturally did not twist, and after burning incense and cleaning their hands, they stroked the piano. Sure enough, the piano skills are so high that Gao Ye seems to be in the clouds, as for his certificate of the tenth level of the guzheng in the later generations, he should have thrown it away, compared to others, he is a beginner.

After playing the song, Gao Ye was still immersed in the music, and Cao Cao on the side smiled and said: "I can listen to Bian everyone's song today, this life is enough." ”

"Good, good! The wind is light, everything knows spring, and the song "Yang Chun" is really around the beam for three days, endlessly! Gao Yechang took a breath and exclaimed loudly.

It is said that when King Chu Xiang asked Song Yu why he hadn't heard of other people's praise for his virtues, he Song Yu replied with "Xia Riba People", "Yang A Xue Lu" and "Yang Chun Baixue", and finally told King Chu Xiang that it was because of his "high and low song", they didn't understand me, so naturally they wouldn't preach it for me. It is precisely because of this that Yangchun Baixue has always been a representative of elegant culture, and Bian everyone's song "Yangchun" is even more amazing.

"How about Mingxi, this Bian everyone's piano skills are really amazing, haha!"

Gao Ye saw that everyone in Bian was blushing under Cao Cao's praise, and couldn't help but wonder, a woman who had been in the land of fireworks all day long would actually blush because of a few words of praise? But looking at Cao Cao, who was constantly spewing all kinds of praise in his mouth, Gao Ye suddenly understood. Isn't it just two people looking at each other, if it weren't for the lover's boundless praise for himself, how could a person like Bian Dajia blush?

Gao Ye couldn't help but quip: "It seems that you two are concubines, Brother Meng De, why didn't you redeem her, did your sister-in-law not let you?" ”

Cao Cao's expression couldn't help but froze when he heard this, and the faces of the Bian family became even redder, but the old bustard smiled and said: "This Bian family is the number one brand I am drunk on, and he is worth two thousand taels of silver." I know that Nizi has a good impression of Lord Cao, and if Lord Cao is interested, if he has a thousand taels, I will fulfill Lord Cao. ”

Cao Cao also smiled awkwardly: "That's true, foolish brother, I really have more than enough heart and not enough strength." But this time the reward came down, and I saw that it was about the same, so I ransomed him, and in the future, she could only play the piano for me every day, wouldn't it be wonderful. ”

Gao Ye laughed when he heard this, and shouted, bring a pen and paper! The old bustard hurriedly let Ran get it, and after a while, a maid came with a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and put it in front of Gao Ye's case. Gao Ye also picked up the pen directly, and wrote on the paper: "Drunk upstairs to play "Yang Chun", half into the building and half into the clouds. This song should only be in the sky, and it is rare to hear it in the world! This poem was originally Du Fu's "Gift of Flowers", but Gao Ye changed it here, and pretended to be made by himself. It's just that Du Fu wrote this poem, which is a satire on Hua Jingding, he is arrogant, arrogant and lawless, and has no court, and usurps the music of the Son of Heaven. It's just that Gao Ye is here, purely using his superficial meaning, and simply talking about the wonder of Bian's music.

Gao Ye wrote these four sentences, and wrote later: "After returning from the rebellion at night, fortunately invited by Brother Meng De, listening to this song, it was really as the sage said, there was a feeling of three days around the beam, so the inscription poem was remembered." November 20 of the year of the Middle Peace. ”

When Cao Cao saw Gao Ye asking for a pen and paper, he knew that he would have something to gain, but he knew that as soon as Gao Ye picked up the pen and wrote, he was attracted by his calligraphy. Although this font is very similar to the regular script of Cai Yong and Zhong Xuan, it is self-contained, with muscles and bones, and also has a sharp edge. Moreover, this style of writing, majestic, multi-forced, and a hint of iron painting and silver hook feeling, is really exquisite, and I can't help but glance at Gao Ye again.

If he knew that Gao Ye was only using the Yan style created by Yan Zhenqing four hundred years later, he would definitely not be as surprised as he is now. It's just that now he thinks that this is a new font created by Gao Ye, and he can't help but admire him in his heart, after all, there are many people who are good at calligraphy, how many can create a font?

Aside from the words, and then look at Gao Ye's literary style, it is really extraordinary, most of the people now are mainly four-word poems, and Gao Ye uses seven words, although there are only four short sentences, but the beauty of the whole song is set off, Cao Cao looked at it on the side, and couldn't help but read out this poem.

"Mengde, with my handwriting, is it worth a thousand taels of silver?" Gao Ye said with a smile.
