As Li Mi said, not long after walking north along Suzaku Street, after passing Jingshanfang, the crowd became dense, and the costumes of passers-by and pedestrians became much more gorgeous, with the taste of a bustling city. The more people go north, the more people on both sides of the street are still the same, but the eaves of the roof that are higher than the square wall are gradually increasing, and from time to time you can see a faint figure behind the bead curtain, listen carefully, and you can hear a few delicate laughter.

Li Zaixing's lonely heart began to move.

As the saying goes, being a soldier for three years, the old sow becomes a mink, not to mention that he not only served as a soldier in Tibet for five years in his previous life, but also worked as a supernumerary novice in the temple for eight years in this life, and he has not seen a few women for more than ten years, let alone intimate contact.

Li Zaixing looked around, hoping to see a few Tang beauties, and get over it first. Not only him, but even the Teller Horse was a little excited, because there were a lot of pedestrians on the road, including many beautiful mares, and the Teller Horse was snorting and wagging his tail, and he did his best, and he wanted to ** The little mare passing by looked at it twice, and also seized the opportunity to rub his neck with a maroon mare, until he was found by Li Zaixing, kicked it twice, and then reluctantly left, did not take two steps, and took a fancy to a white horse in front of him, and trotted over, lowered his head, Touched the white horse's buttocks.

"Where did the wild boy come from, dare to ** my horse." Leading the horse was a tall, bearded man, with a deep nose and gouging eyes, who didn't look like a Han Chinese, but he spoke Chang'an dialect much more authentically than Li Zaixing. Seeing the white horse, he was furious, stared at a pair of green eyes, and looked at Li Zaixing fiercely.

Li Zaixing was embarrassed to strangle the horse, smiled embarrassedly, he arched his hand at the young man in Chinese clothes who had just turned around on horseback, and said with a smile: "This brother, ashamed, ashamed, alas, my mother......"

Li Zaixing was halfway through his words, and he had already seen the true face of the young man in Chinese costumes, and he was startled, and subconsciously exclaimed, and he couldn't say anything else. This man's face was so terrifying, a round face was just a big pie face, with a large yellow patch on his forehead and a big red patch on each cheek, which looked like he was singing, but what frightened him the most was his eyebrows and lips. The man's eyebrows were short and thick, like a broomstick, and they flew up diagonally. The lips were a little cherry, but the cherry had probably been left too long, not red, but black.

Yellow forehead and red cheeks, short eyebrows and black lips, seeing this face, Li Zaixing, who had no psychological preparation, was so frightened that his little heart was beating wildly, and he almost fell off the horse. If Wei Yingwu saw him nervous like this, he would definitely lose his eyeballs.

Li Zaixing clutched his heart, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and felt that his throat was a little dry.

This is also too frightening, is it a scene that is rushing, and the time is too tight to remove the makeup? I'm scared to death.

"Where did the wild boy come from, making a fuss, scared Anu to death." The young man in Chinese clothes was also startled, clutching his bulging chest and snorting. His voice was high-pitched, and he didn't know if he was pinching his throat to speak, or if he was born to do so. He narrowed his eyes, glanced Li Zaixing up and down, frowned, and slanted his eyes, revealing a little contempt. "Hmph, I don't know where the countryman came from, it's really a disappointment."

Without waiting for Li Zaixing to speak, Lu Hu rushed forward, laughed with him, and bowed his hand: "This little lady, I'm really ashamed, my master came to Chang'an for the first time, I don't know the rules, I abruptly surprised the little lady, and I ask for forgiveness." ”

"This little Langjun speaks in an official tone, but he is a person who knows etiquette." The young man in Chinese clothes glared at Li Zaixing again, and said to the Hu man who was still angry at him: "Let's go, don't worry about such people, it ruins the demeanor of my Jingshi people." Hurry up, you won't be able to catch up if you're late. ”

The Hu man and the horseman responded meekly, and led the white horse away quickly.

Li Zaixing was shocked and confused. "It's ...... Woman? ”

"Of course it's a woman, and it's a rare beauty." Lu Hu covered his lips and smiled: "The Tang Dynasty is open, and there are many women who go out in their husbands' clothes, and it will not be strange if you see more in the future." ”

He looked at the bloated figure that was fading away, and thought back to the two snow-sweeping eyebrows, and there were ten thousand grass and mud horses galloping past in his heart. Woman, still a rare beauty? What about the good willow eyebrows, and what about the small waist that is good? It's the first time I've seen Lao Tzu in broad daylight, and if I see it at night, I'm probably scared.

After listening to Li Zaixing's question, Lu Hu then explained that the yellow on the woman's forehead is called forehead yellow, which is often said to be the forehead yellow of "forehead yellow and greasy hair", also known as flower yellow. Her eyebrows are broad eyebrows, and the willow eyebrows you mentioned also have them, but they are just a new eyebrow makeup that has just appeared, not every woman likes it, and there are many who like broad eyebrows. As for her lips, they are called black lips, this is the makeup from Tubo, which is rare in the Tang Dynasty, but I didn't expect the lord to see it when he first entered Chang'an.

Li Zaixing couldn't cry or laugh, secretly wiped a cold sweat, disappointed, and a fiery spring heart suddenly cooled by half. He thought about Princess Taiping played by Zhou Xun in "Daming Palace Ci", and secretly greeted the makeup artist, you are too fucking daddy. But after thinking about it, it seems that I can't complain about the makeup artist, I really have to make up according to the real makeup in history, but I am afraid that this TV series will lose a blue nose and swollen eyes.

Comforting a wounded heart, Li Zaixing and Li Mi came to the end of Suzaku Street, in front of them is the south gate of the imperial city, Suzaku Gate, compared to the Mingde Gate seen before, Suzaku Gate is taller, only the palace wall has more than three zhang, and the gatehouse is also more tall and majestic, magnificent. An east-west Chunmingmen Street in front of Suzaku Gate is not as wide as Suzaku Street, and it is more than 100 meters by visual inspection, about 40 zhang.

Unlike the deserted streets at the southern end of Suzaku Street, the street in front of Suzaku Gate is bustling with activity. People come and go, and the traffic is busy, even if it is not comparable to the Dafujing in Beijing in the later generations, it is not far away. The biggest difference is that the pedestrians also come and go in a hurry, and none of them stop to look at the scenery. Because there is no scenery to see, there are no shops on both sides of the street, only rows of willow trees and silent walls, and on the north side is a palace wall that is more than three zhang high, silently showing the dignity and supremacy of the royal family. Although the Vermilion Bird Gate is majestic and magnificent, it cannot be seen every day, that is, a countryman like Li Zaixing who enters the city for the first time will deliberately stop here.

Alas, the decaying class society. Li Zaixing sighed secretly and followed Li Mi along the street to the east. After walking for about two or three miles, at a crossroads, Li Mi stopped and arched his hand: "Brother Xian, there is Pingkangfang in front, I won't go in with you." ”

Li Zaixing returned the salute: "San Lang is at his own convenience, with Lu Hu leading the way, I don't think there will be any problems." If there's anything, I'll go back to you. ”

Li Mi nodded, took care of Lu Hu a few more words, and then rode the donkey to the north. Li Zaixing was led by Lu Hu and continued eastward. After walking a short distance, I came to the north gate of Pingkangfang. Li Zaixing immediately noticed a problem, he had just turned around from Suzaku Street, and after passing through two squares, there seemed to be no north gate, so he asked Lu Hu about it.

Lu Hu explained with a smile that the four columns and thirty-six squares on the east and west sides of Suzaku Street only have two gates, east and west, and there are no north and south gates, because the thirty-six squares are facing the imperial city and the palace city, in order to prevent the overflow of the royal qi, the north and south cannot be connected, so only the east and west gates can be left. The other workshops usually have four doors.

Li Zaixing was speechless, feudal superstition kills people, if you really want to keep the king's spirit from overflowing, how can it be enough not to open the north-south door, the street between the squares is not north-south? These officials, for an inexplicable reason, opened two fewer doors, and the people are so troublesome. In such a large community, four gates are too little, let alone two gates.

Li Zaixing slandered while entering the north gate of Pingkangfang. As soon as he entered the door, he felt a different atmosphere. Compared with the Chunmingmen Street just now, Pingkangfang is more lively, not only with more people, but also with noisy sounds, and a little more fireworks in the world. Brightly dressed men and women rode horses or rode in cars, coming and going, endlessly, and from time to time people stopped to greet each other, each with a high-pitched voice or a tactful voice, and the hearty laughter and the gentle laughter were mixed together, one after another. Maybe it's because the road is narrower, and the crowd has become a lot more crowded. As far as the eye could see, there were more horses, and they seemed to be a few more horses than on the street outside.

"Why is this so lively?" Li Zaixing asked curiously.

Lu Hu glanced at it: "I think it's the Jinshi list, the lifters came here to drink and celebrate." He glanced at Li Zaixing, and pointed to a few lines of courtyards on the east side: "This is the most famous merry serval in Chang'an City, not only the lifters are willing to come, but also ranger boys like Wei Sanlang like to come, you live here, there are many opportunities to meet in the future." ”

"I live in Bodhi Temple, not in **." Li Zaixing said with a smile: "I said Ah Hu, do you think that I live in Bodhi Temple because it is convenient to go to **?" ”

Lu Hu smiled and didn't explain. Although he was arranged by Li Mi to be Li Zaixing's entourage, he did not regard Li Zaixing as his master in his heart. He was polite to Li Zaixing, just out of politeness. What Li Zaixing thinks, he doesn't care, but from his performance on Suzaku Street, I think that he, an unordained novice, is not a gentleman who is disciplined and polite, ** is on the side, and it is normal to go shopping.

Li Zaixing didn't say much. What Lu Hu thought, he could roughly guess, what he wanted to do, there was no need to explain to Lu Hu. The reason why he wanted to live in Bodhi Temple after coming to Chang'an was because the master lazy monk had lived in Bodhi Temple for a period of time before, and the token given by the client also showed that he might often go in and out of Bodhi Temple.

However, after listening to Lu Hu's introduction to **, Li Zaixing felt that the master let him live in Bodhi Temple, probably not only because it was convenient for the client to enter and leave Bodhi Temple. Since these ** are the gathering place of ranger boys, they are naturally also the places where rangers, assassins and other shady Jianghu people often haunt, correspondingly, this is also a distribution center for all kinds of gossip, and living here is conducive to message transmission
