Thank you to all those who have supported me. Thank you. ）

He looked for someone to serve those Uncle Ma, and then led Lian Zining and a group of people to go around the side of the building. The façade of Yanhuilou is five floors high, the pavilion is majestic, the repair is very spacious and wide, and the hall is enough to accommodate hundreds of tables of guests. This is the place to eat. However, most of the people who come and go back to Yan Huilou are high-ranking officials and nobles, romantic and talented, and at the worst, they are also rich businessmen and gentry, so naturally they can't let the guests enter from the fragrance of wine and meat.

He led Lian Zining and the others around the main building, and walked forward a little further, only to see a side door on the side of the high wall that was not too small, and there were also many people coming in and out here.

After entering, it can be regarded as entering the Yan Hui Building.

Although Yanhuilou is named after the building, it is not a pavilion, but a forest of pavilions.

The clear water in the sea not far away converges into a stream of zhang wide, the stream flows in from the northwest corner, meandering, on both sides of the stream, the white stone is finely broken, and the flowers and trees are sparse. The stream twists and turns between the painting buildings and carved pavilions of Yanhuilou, and finally merges into a clear lake of more than ten acres in the center. In the clear lake, dozens of small islands have been built, some of the islands are towers, some are palaces, some are just a small pavilion alone, and some are built with a thatched house, and a small canopy boat is tied to the willow stump on the side of the island.

There are dozens of small islands, with different architectural styles and styles, ranging from the courtyard houses in the north to the stilted bamboo buildings in Qiongzhou, from the white walls and tiles of Huizhou to the houses with round spires in the western Xinjiang.

Lian Zining can be regarded as an eye-opener, who is so advanced in the consciousness of this Ming Dynasty that he actually made all the miniature landscapes?

The Ming Dynasty Jingshi is the best place in the world, the business is extremely developed, the merchants from the south to the north do not know how many they see the scenery of their hometown here, they naturally feel very cordial, and there is money in the pocket, it is inevitable that they will often come to sit.

This coming and going is naturally a source of money.

What is even more rare is that these so many buildings are arranged in a staggered manner, and they do not seem crowded at all, but give people a very empty and spacious feeling.

Lian Zining's own mansion in Shandong is already very good, it was designed by a master of ingenuity, so his vision is very high, and he can't look down on it, but now he is very convinced.

The little second led Lian Zining to the door, then stopped, and said, "Uncle, this is not where villains and others can enter." ”

As he was talking, a woman greeted her, this woman was about thirty years old, her tall figure was wrapped in the Luo skirt of Shu brocade, and her hair was uneven, and her green silk hung down to her waist.

The little second smiled and said: "Aunt Lan, this great noble person is Uncle Wu Yi, the guest invited by His Royal Highness the King of Valley, you can serve him well." ”

Nalan Gu glanced at him and said, "You still need to say it!" ”

After that, he bowed to Lian Zining Yingying: "The little woman has seen her uncle!" ”

Lian Zining waved his hand and said with a smile: "No need to be polite, just normal." ”

Lan Gu smiled: "I said that there is a big lantern on the candle, and there is indeed a distinguished guest." ”

Saying that, she grabbed Lian Zining's arm and behaved intimately, but she was not disgusted at all.

Lian Zining glanced at her, but did not break away, this woman could see that she was long-lived, but she did not have much smoke and flattery, but gave people a feeling of being washed away and graceful and generous.

Lan Gu took Lian Zining's arm and led him forward, walked through the white stone path of flowers and trees Fusu, got on the old wooden plank bridge, and stepped on it, making a creaking sound. There are many lotus flowers planted in the pond, and now only the residual lotus is left, but it has a bit of a depressed artistic conception. …,

A few Fusang swordsmen carefully put Lian Zining in the center, for this kind of style, Na Lan Gu has already seen a lot, and she just talked to Lian Zining with a smile: "Uncle, His Royal Highness the King of Gu ordered for you is the best Cuiyi Pavilion for Yan Huilou, the height of the field of vision, it is the first in our Yan Huilou." Hehe, those who can enter the Cuiyi Pavilion of the Valley King are not ordinary people! ”

"Oh?" Lian Zining asked casually: "His Royal Highness the King of Valley, often feasting guests in Cuiyi Pavilion?" ”

"Isn't that right?" Lan Gu's eyes wandered around Lian Zining's face, and she seemed to see his thoughts, and pursed her lips and smiled: "There is always a banquet every three or five days, but the number of people is not much, at most only two or three, usually one person." ”

Lian Zining bowed slightly, which shows that King Gu still values himself very much.

I smiled bitterly in my heart: I would rather not value this!

He hid his heart in his heart, so he stopped talking, Lan Gu also closed his mouth in interest, the two of them held hands, walking on the bridge in the lake, not far from the pavilion There is a sound of silk and bamboo, but more? p>

5. A certain oyster mystery stock book stepped on the hanger @ ridge Mi Luan サ oyster 髡 nuo pepper ィ You's stride unconsciously kept the same as her, the two walked slowly, Lian Zining's mood slowly calmed down, became quiet and relaxed? p>

"Uncle, this is Cuiyi Pavilion!" Stopping in front of a distinctive Miaozhai-style bamboo building, Lan Gu's voice woke up Lian Zining.

Lian Zining woke up suddenly, and only then did he realize that he had unconsciously immersed himself in a psychedelic state just now.

He looked at Lan Gu, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back, if someone wanted to kill him at this time, wouldn't he have no power to fight back?

Lian Zining stared at Lan Gu and carefully observed it, but Lan Gu was not afraid, and said with a smile: "How is it, uncle, do you feel very relaxed?" ”

Lian Zining felt it carefully, and immediately felt that the reason why he had fallen into a psychedelic just now was actually a faint fragrance coming from Lan Gu's body, which seemed to have a strong calming effect, and when he smelled a little, he felt a lot more stable

And the source of the aroma is a small sachet on Lan Gu's sleeve.

"What kind of incense is this?" Lian Zining asked suspiciously.

"The slave family doesn't know it, the slave family just heard that this is called A Furong, which was passed down from the Western Regions, and it has a strong calming effect." Lan Gu smiled.

Codeine? Lian Zining said in his heart, I am a grass mud horse, what kind of bullshit A Furong, isn't it opium! Why is this thing available now?

In fact, Lian Zining didn't understand the situation, opium was made by drying the juice of poppy fruits. The opium poppy was originally found in southern Europe and Asia Minor, and around the fifth century BC, the Greeks extracted the juice of the poppy flower or fruit into medicine. It was found to have the effects of calming the nerves, sleeping, analgesic, antidiarrheal, coughing, and forgetting worries, and the Greeks called it "Abian". At the beginning of the sixth century AD, the Arabs introduced the opium poppy to Persia, and the Persians changed the sound of "flat" to "piece" and called it "opium".

In 139 BC, when Zhang Qian went to the Western Regions, opium spread to China. During the Three Kingdoms, Hua Tuo, a famous doctor, used marijuana and opium as anesthetics; In the second year of the Tang Dynasty, there was a record of opium imports, and the Arab opium of the Tang Dynasty was called Afurong; In the "Kaibao Materia Medica" printed in the Northern Song Dynasty in 973 AD, opium was named poppy millet, and the latter "millet" was used as a capsule.

There are different folk names for opium.

In fact, opium has not been cut off since it was introduced to China, but it has never been cultivated in China.

In the Ming Dynasty, opium was listed as a vassal "tribute" as a medicine, and later spread to the people in the early Qing Dynasty and gradually poisoned the world.

In the 19th century, British merchants smuggled opium from India to China to make up for the Sino-British trade deficit, which eventually led to the Opium War. …,

However, the defeat of the Opium War led to the further flow of opium and other drugs, and during the Republic of China, opium was widely cultivated, and the fertile fields of Shanxi, Henan, and Gansu were all planted with poppies. Every year, when the poppies bloom, on the endless field, red, white, yellow and pink, colorful and mixed, it is extremely gorgeous and dazzling.

It was not until the founding of the People's Republic of China that opium was largely eliminated.

Thinking that he had smoked opium all the way just now, he panicked, there was no way, the people who grew up under the red flag learned to sell cigarettes in Humen since elementary school, and the harm of this thing is really very clear.

But after a little bit of attention, you know that you must have sucked this point without any trouble.

Lian Zining's heart moved, and asked, "Where did you buy this thing?" ”

"What, is Uncle going to buy it?" Lan Gu said with a smile: "There is a rouge gouache shop opened by a Hu merchant in Stick Hutong. ”

Lian Zining was stunned, but he didn't expect to live in an alley with him.

Lan Gu welcomed Lian Zining into the building, and more than a dozen dragoons were guarding outside Cuiyi Pavilion, while Shi Dazhu and the four Fusang swordsmen followed Lian Zining in.

This Cuiyi Pavilion is a small building in the style of Miao Village, the whole body is built with the green bamboo of the thickness of the arm bowl, the downstairs is the green lake, Lan Gu led Lian Zining to the second floor, the walls on the second floor, are all made of bamboo, and it seems that they are all bamboos that have not been processed, not only the bamboo is green and green, like a phoenix tail forest, even on the bamboo silk, even with some side branches that have not been cut off. Some of the strange instruments of the ancient world are hung on these side branches.

Aomori Mori's bamboo, in the elegant, but also with an unconcealable forest high-spirited atmosphere, just like people, arrogant and awe-inspiring.

Lian Zining nodded secretly, no wonder King Gu likes here, here, isn't his character like this?

In addition, the inside of the house is very simple, only a bamboo collapse, a small few, two bamboo futons, what makes Lian Zining more strange is that there is a dresser in the corner of the house, an ancient bronze mirror, standing quietly on it,

Good and decent, what do you do with a dresser?

Tea has been brewed a long time ago.

This teapot and cup are all carved from bamboo roots, which looks simple and natural.

Lan Gu knelt on the side, made a cup of tea for Lian Zining, and pushed it in front of him.

As if seeing the surprise in Lian Zining's heart, Lan Gu smiled and said, "His Royal Highness the King of the Valley is here, and he has never drunk. Just drink tea and have some snacks. ”

Lian Zining nodded, it seems that the relationship between Lan Gu and Gu Wang is absolutely extraordinary.

And he is even more jealous of the King of the Valley in his heart, His Royal Highness the King of the Valley is by no means a brave and unscrupulous person, drinking and making mistakes, but drinking tea will not.

And real decisions are made when the brain is clear.

Lan Gu made tea for Lian Zining, confessed her guilt, and left.

Lian Zining sat on the futon, he was not used to kneeling, so he simply sat on it, stretched his legs forward, leaned on the bamboo wall behind him, and on his left was a small window, with the night breeze coming, cool and refreshing.

There is the sound of gurgling water in the ears, the faint sound of silk and bamboo, and the sound of laughter, and a bright moon hanging high in the sky, reflecting the moon shadow in the lake. Through the sparkling water, the tactful singing voice floated in the moonlight, accompanied by a faint mist, and you can vaguely see the dancing sleeves and slender shadows on the pavilion in the distance, making it impossible to tell whether this is the world or the sky.

Lian Zining sighed comfortably and narrowed his eyes slightly.

In the past few months, the vicious battles continued, which had already made him physically and mentally exhausted, and then when he entered Beijing, he was always in a state of suspense about borrowing troops from Duoyan Sanwei, and now he is finally relaxed. …,

This relaxation in my heart, coupled with the fact that I knew that I was safe and absolutely safe, almost slept comfortably

The sound outside gradually became louder, and as the color became darker, there were more and more visitors to Yan Huilou, and it seemed that there were more people coming here, and in a pavilion not far from Lian Zining, the lights were on.

At this time, there was a dense sound of footsteps outside, and then the hearty laughter of the king of Gu sounded: "Wu Yibo is here early?" ”

Lian Zining hurriedly stood up to greet him, and before the words fell, he saw Gu Wang Zhu Zai push the door in, he was missing the prince's robe, but he changed into a black casual dress with high crowns and wide sleeves, the robe of Shu brocade undulated like a wave, and a huge red jade on the black gold crown of the hair shone brightly. is less domineering and violent, but a little more elegant and handsome.

Lian Zining has to admit that how many generations of excellent genes have been inherited, and the children and grandchildren of the old Zhu family are all good.

He clasped his fists and saluted: "Xiaguan has seen His Royal Highness the King of the Valley. ”

"Wu Yibo doesn't need to be polite!" King Gu waved his hand, but his eyes fell on the four Fusang swordsmen standing behind Lian Zining, his eyes on their hands that did not leave the handle of the knife for a moment, their slightly bent knees, their slightly raised toes, and their slightly bowed waists, and their eyes lit up.

He paced in front of the four swordsmen, looked them up and down, and said with a smile: "Wu Yibo, where did you recruit a few masters, but it's not simple!" ”

"Oh? How so? Lian Zining asked with a smile.

"Tsk, do you still want to test me?" The king of the valley glanced at him: "Look at their momentum, their heels are up, their knees are bent, their waists are bent slightly, their hands are only an inch away from the knife, if there is danger, it is only a moment, they can draw the knife." Seeing that their arms are so thick, the strength in their hands must be great, and they are afraid that a knife can split people! ”

Lian Zining really admired it in his heart, this Gu Wang Ye is really very knowledgeable about military affairs, his eyesight is extraordinary, and his personal combat effectiveness must be not weak.

King Gu rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Their knives are long and narrow, this king heard that you have been to Fusang, these people must have been recruited from Fusang!" ”

Lian Zining praised sincerely: "The prince's eyes are like torches, and his guess is not bad at all, these people are the disciples of the Fusang Sword Saint Liu Sheng Zongyan, and now they are serving under the command of the lower officials, and they are very relied on by the lower officials." ”

He turned his head to a few Fuso swordsmen and said, "Iga, Ishihara, this is His Royal Highness the King of the Valley of the Ming Dynasty, you can see it!" ”

"Yes, sir!" A few Fusang swordsmen who had been expressionless just now and let the Gu King judge turned around and bowed deeply to the Gu King, but did not speak.

The Fuso samurai of this era still have some backbone, once they recognize their master, they are very loyal, and they are not shy about others.

Lian Zining said apologetically: "Your Highness, don't be surprised, they are like this." ”

King Gu smiled: "How can this king be strange?" Coincidentally, there are also more than ten Fuso warriors in this palace, and if they have the opportunity, they should be compared. ”

"Oh? There are also Fuso people in His Highness's house? The king of the valley took off his robe, and sat down on the futon, he was not kneeling, but he was more elegant than Lian Zining just now, and he was cross-legged. Lian Zining also sat down cross-legged, poured a cup of tea for King Gu, and asked with a smile.

As soon as the king of the valley waved his hand, the few guards following him nodded and retreated. Lian Zining comprehended and asked Iga and a few other Fuso swordsmen to retreat.

King Gu took a sip of tea lightly and said with a smile: "Those Fusang people were given to this king by Sun Yanzhi. ”

"Sun Yanzhi sent it?" Lian Zining was dumbfounded in his heart, but his face was silent.

"It was sent by Sun Yanzhi, and at that time, Sun Shilang was the king's pawn." King Gu smiled: "But later, this king angered his father because of something, and was left out in the cold for a while, Sun Shilang became the second child's lackey, and later sent people to this king's mansion to ask those Fusang people back." But those Fusang people also have backbone, saying that they recognized me as their master, and the sentient beings did not betray me and let them get out, they committed suicide on the spot, hey, it really scared me at that time! These Fuso people are all strong! ”…,

A happy smile appeared on his face, glanced at Lian Zining, and said, "Understood, right?" ”

Lian Zining naturally understood.

Sun Yanzhi first followed the thirteenth child, and then followed the second child, you said that you just changed the sentence to the court, and turned back to ask for someone, this food is too ugly, no wonder he broke Sun Yanzhi, the king of the valley is so happy.

Lian Zining smiled bitterly in his heart, he was reluctant to get involved in the troubled waters of the princes, but at the moment, it seemed that this was wishful thinking, he had already offended the second prince, if there was no backer behind him, it would really not work.

And Lao Thirteen obviously took a fancy to this, so he solicited himself.

At this time, the door creaked open and Lan Gu walked in with a smile, and on a tray in her hand, there were seven or eight small plates, but they were all some snacks.

The dim sum was placed on the table, and Lian Zining smelled a sweet fragrance on the end of his nose, and he took a look at it, there were three knives of honey in it, fat crisp, jujube paste cake, and so on, all of which were desserts. This is not uncommon in later generations, but in this era, honey is expensive, and this thing is much more expensive than wine and food.

Lan Gu put the plates on the small table one by one, and smiled at the king of the valley: "I was in a hurry just now, I was afraid that it would be too late, and now I will be good and good, and I will lose what you say, don't you know that it will start?" ”

"Ah, that's right!" The king of the valley suddenly remembered, slapped his thigh, and said, "I'm talking nonsense with you, but I have something to do tonight!" ”

"Serious business?" Lian Zining was surprised: "What's the matter?" ”

This time, the king of the valley was, not to mention the sale, he came to another window, looked at the sparkling water, and said with a smile: "It's not too late." ”

Lian Zining was even more curious, but he was silent and looked at it carefully.

At this time, he found that the surrounding pavilions seemed to form a patchwork circle, surrounded by an empty lake the size of an acre in the middle.

At this time, there was a sudden melodious singing in the distance, and the song gradually approached, and then I saw a small canopy boat rowing up, and more than ten red lanterns were played on the boat, illuminating it transparently. Several women dressed only in tulle were singing and dancing, their snow-white skin looming, showing an ambiguous warm red in the light.

What is it? Dancing performances? Lian Zining raised his eyebrows and smiled faintly. In later generations, he was a hundred times more popular than this, and he saw a lot, and he was a little disapproving.

"Where is this?" King Gu saw his thoughts, poked him with his fingers, and smiled ambiguously: "The wonderful is behind!" ”

Lian Zining didn't speak anymore, just watched with interest.

Looking at it like this, the king of the valley is stopping talking about Fengyue today, not talking about business, in this case, why should he be eager? I've been busy these days, and today is just the right time to relax.

The silk bamboo orchestra, Ou Ou Ya, and a few beautiful women, dancing in the moonlight.

I don't know when, the red lanterns on the canopy boat have been extinguished, the moonlight is like water, splashing down, and a few women, like a few butterflies made of moonlight, are like dreams.

Lian Zining's heart gradually quieted down, and he had to admit that this kind of song and dance would never be seen in the future. This kind of beautiful and elegant dance can only be performed by people who have been trained since childhood and have a very deep literary foundation in the weapon itself.

This dance is a poem, a song, and a glass of soft wine.

After a long time, let's dance.

There was a round of applause all around, and those who can come here and have a place here are naturally people with some status, and they will not be stingy with praise and applause.

Several women nodded to the four sides, but instead of retreating, they stood aside. …,

Then a man came out of the canopy boat, but it was a man in a robe, this man was long and round, and a fat face was full of a bright smile, and he was kind.

Lan Gu knew that Lian Zining didn't know him, so she introduced: "This is the right Shaowu of the Teaching Workshop Division, Yin Zukui, Yin? p>

笕 Shu R color eggplant 喾德サthumb笾魇拢值 purple deer 茏沤 Tan Huang mortar suffocation Lu neon 嗉 instrument 嗦ァ!?p>

Lian Zining nodded, it turned out that he was still an official.

Under the Department of Teaching Workshop, there is one person in Fengluan, one person in the nine products, one person on the left and one person on the right Shao dance, one person each on the left and right Si Le, and from the nine products. Although Yin Zukui, the right Shaowu, is just an inconspicuous little official from the ninth grade, not even as good as a small flag, but the power is quite large, and he has so many Qinglou, these official prostitutes have to listen to him, for some people, this is a place where they can't think about it.

That Yin Zukui shook his head and said with a smile: "Everyone, I came here today to appreciate my face, thank you here!" ”

"Since you are here, you must be clear about the purpose of this trip, and you are all thinking of coming to open buds for today's beauty, so let's not say much about annoying people, let's start here!" This Yin Zukui was long and soft, but he spoke very simply, and as soon as he waved his hand, two women helped a person out of the cabin.

At this moment, the lights on the boat came on again, illuminating the small boat transparently.

The two maids dressed as women are all beautiful and picturesque, which can be regarded as rare beauties in the world, but everyone's eyes are attracted by the person they are supporting.

It was also a woman.

She wore a bright red gown, which seemed to be made of a whole piece of silk, uncut and the end of the silk skirted over her shoulders, and then wound horizontally from behind her to cover her towering breasts. Then he bent it from under his armpit, swept diagonally past his white and slippery waist, and tied it around his waist. The silk tail hung low, and it was more than three feet long behind her, like the colorful clothes of those princesses and empresses in the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty!

The clothes are bright red, and they are embroidered with gold threads with various patterns of sacred birds, which is the color of kitsch, but the color of this silk is as brilliant as clouds, and under the reflection of the light, it is like a constant flow, but it gives people a very dazzling and brilliant feeling.

This is the best Baixi satin, in the capital only Lianji silk satin village has for sale, fifty taels of silver a zhang, in short supply.

And when worn on the woman's body, there will be no feeling of being touched by vulgar words.

Her complexion was extremely fair, and in the light she shone like the finest porcelain. The figure is long, the breasts are full of hips, and it can be seen under the wrapping of the clothes, it is quite plump and hot, and her face is also extremely beautiful, but at this time, her face seems to be condensed with a cold

It's like a scorching and blooming rose.

But when her eyes turned, Lian Zining clearly saw that those dark eyes were full of despair and sorrow.

It made his heart flutter.

The woman's gaze wandered, and she lowered her head, her neck as long as a proud swan.

Yin Zukui, the right Shao dancer, laughed: "Everyone, today's saints have always been benevolent and don't build a big prison, but our sect has not been here for some years." Please look at this son-in-law of the commander of ten thousand, she has to have a figure, and her appearance is one in a million, and after she was sent here, she was specially inspected by someone below, and she was indeed a virgin who had not left the cabinet! ”

"Of course!" He paused, smiled, and showed an expression that all men understand: "The most important thing is that the dignified son-in-law of the commander of the three products of Jingwei Zheng is not something that anyone can touch, you say, isn't it?" ”
