Zhou Hui wanted to know what Shen Yun was thinking?

But in fact, Shen Yun himself had no idea.

Shen Yun hadn't thought of how to face Zhou Hui, a woman who had something to do with her father's killer.

Of course, what he was worried about was not the problem of three wives and four concubines. Yes, he is indeed a modern man, and according to modern people's concepts, monogamy is a matter of course.

But what is the foundation of this kind of natural righteousness? On the premise of women's emancipation, Chinese law, and the vigorous Chinese revolution, it is the foundation, and it is fundamental!

But this is the Han Empire, where there is no women's emancipation, no corresponding legal constraints, and no ...... Therefore, three wives and four concubines are not the biggest obstacle in Shen Yun's heart now.

To be more precise, Shen Yun likes this kind of environment where he can have the opportunity to have the girl he likes openly. This is the instinctive desire of men. There is no shortage of infatuated and single-minded people in any era, but it seems that this has nothing to do with Shen Yun.

He is just an ordinary man, a man who has been forced by social reality, in the original rule of law society that advocated monogamy, there are still countless men who work hard to create this kind of opportunity openly and secretly, and in the time and space of the Han Empire, in this social background, he can't resist that kind of temptation.

He can have three wives and four concubines, but the premise is still out of the instinctive concept of modern people, and these wives and concubines must really like him and be willing to be with him.

Of course, judging from the current situation, whether it is Yan Ruyue or Zhou Hui, they really like Shen Yun. Shen Yun could have enjoyed the blessings of Qi people, but Fang Cheng suddenly cut off this thought.

For a while, Shen Yun really couldn't deal with this situation.

In modern times, he doesn't have the opportunity to deal with one girl, and now when he has to deal with two girls, how can you let him not be caught up and hesitate?

This may be regarded as the weakness of Shen Yun, a modern person!

So Shen Yun chose a temporary escape. He didn't want to see Zhou Hui until he came up with a solution. Even if he did, he didn't know what to say.

People have weaknesses. Shen Yun's weakness. Maybe it's too timid about men and women. He loves and loves easily, but he doesn't deal with hate. If you want him to confess, maybe grit your teeth and go, but if you want to break up, he won't dare to kill him.

Some people say that this is caused by an inferiority complex deep in their hearts. But Shen Yun would rather think that this is his responsibility for love.

In fact. He is not at all fit to be a prodigal son among the flowers......

He is just an ordinary man.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

"Shen Yuanrang, if you don't see me today, I will hate you for the rest of my life!" Zhou Hui jumped to his feet in the main hall and scolded angrily, but he scolded and scolded, and two lines of tears had already flowed down his greasy white cheeks.

Fang Cheng stood on the side. But he could only shake his head slowly, refusing to say more than half a sentence.

Of course, in Fang Cheng's opinion, Shen Yun was right to do this. The truth that long pain is better than short pain has been there for a long time.

It's a pity that Shen Yun underestimated the persistence of women in this era to love.

The "hate" that Zhou Hui said is really hate. After quietly leaving two lines of tears, she didn't stop for a moment, and turned around and left the Huainan Hou Courtyard.

And what she didn't know was. The moment she turned away. Shen Yun wore his hair loose and wrapped in a cotton robe. The figure in the cattail slippers appeared right behind her, with its mouth open and its right hand raised, as if trying to call her.

But in the end, he didn't make a sound, but gently lowered his hand, looked at her back, and let her slowly leave.

Perhaps, many years later, Shen Yun will miss the greasy and moving Yao nose when he turned his head slightly, the beautiful lips like water chestnuts, and the few soft green silks on the side of his neck when he occasionally looked back. But now, Shen Yun only has endless melancholy and helplessness filling the bottom of his heart.

"Did you say I did the right thing?" Shen Yun looked at Fang Cheng a little blankly.

Fang Cheng actually learned James's movements, and shrugged helplessly: "God knows! ”

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

The engagement of the Yan family was messed up because of the appearance of the Marquis of Bohai. The fame of Sappo Hou spread throughout the imperial capital at once. It is rumored in the streets and alleys that the Marquis of Bohai made a big fuss in Yanfu, fought with Kong Shen, the second son of the Marquis of Zichuan, beat Kong Shen to the point that his nose was blue and his face was swollen, and he also beat Yan Zhun by the way, and finally even threatened that if he couldn't marry Yan Ruyue, he would demolish Yanfu......

Rumors like this spread in the emperor. Ordinary people always like this kind of thing. Those girls in the boudoir not only sighed at Shen Yun's unhesitating strength for their lovers, but also felt contempt for Shen Yun's elderless and unscrupulous character.

"Such a domineering person is not worthy of marrying the first beauty of the emperor at all!"

"He inherited the title by himself, and he was already the Marquis of Bohai in the Han Dynasty and bullied others."

"Yan Mansion will never marry his daughter to him!"

……

This kind of comment is not the same in the emperor.

Shen Yun and Fang Cheng had heard these things when they returned to school the next day, but they didn't care.

These are just rumors, and the truth is something that rumor spreaders should know. However, Shen Yun was more worried about who was spreading these rumors.

Of course, with these rumors, the engagement of the Zichuan Hou family to Yan Mansion had to be postponed indefinitely. This may not be good news for Shen Yun. It's just that Yan Ruyue is suffering, she is now grounded, and it is impossible for her to come to school. The sacrificial wine cultivator has personally approved her leave.

The winter vacation is coming soon, and compared to the summer vacation, the winter vacation is obviously very short. It begins seven days before the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve and ends on the fifteenth day of the first month. It was less than a month before and after.

It's different from our modern thinking that the Chinese New Year is a family reunion. Long before the Han Dynasty, the Chinese people paid the most attention to the Mid-Autumn Festival and the winter solstice. The winter solstice is only considered the end of the year.

Nian is a vicious beast in ancient times. During the New Year, it is just a matter of beating gongs and drums, making a lively scene, and driving away the "New Year Beast". So as long as it's lively, you can live anywhere.

As the first year of the Han millennium approached, the entire imperial capital was covered with snow. As far as the eye can see, the scene covered in silver is not inferior to any northland scenery.

The weather was very cold, and in such weather, the pastures were covered with ice, and riding lessons were not possible. As a result, all the hours of the previous riding class were included in the kendo class.

This day is the twenty-third day of the lunar month, that is, the last day before the winter vacation. Shen Yun and Fang Cheng finished the "Analects" in the morning, walked out of the spacious palace-like class, and walked along the corridor to prepare to go back to the dormitory to change clothes and prepare for the afternoon kendo class. But Wang Rong suddenly stood in front of them.

Thick fur wrapped around his muscular body. The sky blue school uniform is wrapped inside, and the mink crown on his head sets off Wang Rong very heroically.

"Shen Yun, I have something to tell you!" Wang Rong's voice was as buzzing as ever, spreading far away in the cold winter air.

The surrounding students avoided and took a detour, but their pace slowed down. They all pricked up their ears and listened.

Wang Rong likes Zhou Hui, which is not news in Imperial University for a long time. And Shen Yun and Zhou Hui had a bad relationship, which had long been known to the emperor. So they were all very concerned about what Wang Rong would say to Shen Yun.

Shen Yun was wearing a filial piety suit, with a black fluffy shawl on the outside and a mink scarf around his neck. According to the imperial etiquette system, Shen Yun's filial piety clothes must be worn for three years. It is for filial piety.

He glanced up at Wang Rong and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Wang Rong's eyes were full of anger, Fang Cheng didn't walk away, and the back of his hanging hand lightly touched Shen Yun.

Of course, Shen Yun understood that Fang Cheng meant to make himself more vigilant. But Shen Yun didn't have any worries.

Although Wang Rong gives people the image of a reckless and impulsive reckless man, Shen Yun doesn't think that he will be so unwise to do it here - it is illegal to fight privately, and Wang Rong is not this kind of mindless person.

What's more, if Wang Rong wanted to do it, he would have come to Shen Yun a long time ago. There is no need to wait until today at all.

Really. Wang Rong stared at Shen Yun's angry eyes and turned away, and the corners of his eyes twitched slightly. You can see what he's trying to endure.

"Forget it, it's for you!" Wang Rong slapped a letter in Shen Yun's arms, almost stumbled him, and then walked away without looking back.

Shen Yun looked at the unsigned envelope in his hand, opened it suspiciously, and saw a sentence written on it: "Tonight, Ethereal dwelling." ”

There is no letterhead, no payment, and no date. That's it.

Shen Yun couldn't help frowning.

Who is this asking him about?

Fang Cheng poked his head over, saw the words on the letter, and couldn't help but say, "Ethereal dwelling? That's one of the top ten green buildings in the imperial capital, who asked you out? ”

Shen Yun shook his head.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Qinhuai wind and snow fly around the sky, and the flowers and moons of the Tianhe River are endless.

The land of wind and snow in the imperial capital of the Han Dynasty is concentrated on both sides of the canal. Miao Miaoju, Qin Tower, Huaishui Pavilion, Fuliu Pavilion, Flower Pavilion, Wan Tower, Sishui Residence, Yilian Fang, Qimeng Tower are the most famous green buildings on both sides of the canal.

Because the Qinlou and Huaishui Pavilion are the longest, they existed on the day the imperial capital was built, and they are also the most famous, so this section of the canal is also called the Qinhuai River.

On the bank of the Qinhuai River, it is said that acacia, if it is an old person, there is no need to return.

Ethereal is the first among the top ten green buildings, or it has been a matter of the past few years. Ethereal House occupies more than ten acres of good land on the bank of the Qinhuai River. There are no pavilion-style buildings as conspicuous as the Qin Tower, nor are there Wu Nong's soft words with a Jiangnan flavor like the Huaishui Pavilion. The name is entirely due to the fact that the interior layout of the Ethereal House makes people feel very ethereal, like a mysterious place.

Five steps and one back, ten steps and one willow, the corridor is hung with colors, silk curtains. During the passage of the gentle maid, it is like entering an ethereal fairyland.

Of course, these are not enough to make Miao Miao Ju the first Qinglou in the Han Dynasty. What's more, the Ethereal Residence has a performance stage that transcends the times, in the water pavilion with winding paths and deep corridors. Every night, this water pavilion covered by the red and pink light gauze will have a beautiful silk bamboo sound, dressed in light veil, graceful and delicate women dance with the music on it, the carcass looms behind the light veil, called the glamorous dance!

In modern times, glamorous dancing is no surprise. But in this day and age, there are very few people who dance this kind of dance in public. It is with this gimmick that the ethereal residence has become the first green building in the Han Dynasty.

The so-called green building, in fact, is not as modern people think, it must be a place of resignation. Qinglou was originally just a noun to describe a wealthy family, and later gradually became synonymous with a brothel. And in this era, Qinglou has nothing to do with brothels.

The women of Qinglou are mainly divided into two types: those who entertain people with sex and those who entertain people with skills. That is, the so-called difference between selling oneself and selling one's art. In this kind of place, those who entertain people with color are called Cainu, also known as excellent women, and those who entertain people with skills are called famous women or beautiful women.

Rich sons and literati come to the Qinglou, not all to satisfy carnal desires, but more just to feast guests and entertain. Most of the Qinglou women have also been trained, and they are involved in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs, and some of the Qinglou women are also proficient in archery and sword dancing.

Like all Qinglou, there are also excellent singers who entertain people with color and famous singers who entertain people with skills in the middle of the ethereal center. And relatively speaking. The number of celebrities is more, and most of the excellent actors who entertain people with Israel are women who are twenty-five or sixteen years old and have been "late and yellow".

Of course, if you are willing to do so, and you are willing to pay for it, the beauty will attend the meeting and go to Wushan together. lingering overnight in the brocade Qiuluo tent, it is not impossible to make a dew marriage.

Therefore, the people who come and go in and out of the green building are very complicated. There are low-level peddlers and pawns, as well as high-ranking officials and nobles, and the Shilin students in the middle are like crossing the river, and there are countless of them.

When Shen Yun and Fang Cheng came here. It's the time of the night.

It was the time of the month, and the red sleeves added fragrance.

The two red lights in front of the gate of the Ethereal House have been hung high, and the two young men in Tsing Yi are standing at the door, smiling and greeting the guests who come in and out.

This scene disappointed Shen Yun, who originally thought that there would be a large number of warblers and Yanyan standing at the door waving coquettishly. Later, he learned that it was not for nothing that a large number of greased and whitewashed women stood at the door to solicit customers, but it could no longer be called a green building, but a veritable brothel. Where the meat is sold.

Just stepped to the door. Shen Yun was still a little timid, after all, he was not the previous Shen Yun. He'd never been to such a place before the crossing, so it wasn't surprising that he was a little intimidated.

To Shen Yun's surprise, Fang Cheng was more chic than him, and when he walked to the door, the little guy sang with a smile: "Shen Gongzi, Fang Gongzi is here!" Then Fang Cheng lifted the corners of his robe in a dashing manner and stepped forward.

On the contrary, it was Shen Yun who smiled at the two little guys a little embarrassedly, and then followed. I can't help but wonder, how do they know us, and what do they know our last name?

Later, Fang Cheng told him that not everyone could be these little servants standing at the door. Qinglou is a place of fireworks, and people come and go, which is extremely complicated. The doorman needs to remember the face of each guest, and sing a fat song when he enters the door, so that not only can the people inside know what the guest's surname is, entertain them, but also make the guests feel intimate. This requires a high level of memory.

As for their titles, hehe, Shen Yun is a frequent visitor to the Ethereal Residence, although he hasn't been here for a while, but recently Sapohou has a reputation outside, and there are not many people who don't know. However, there are some taboos here, so when those doormen sing songs, they will not call out the official titles or other identity information of the guests, but will be generalized by titles such as "son", "master" and "young master".

Entering the door, bypassing the splendid screen of the fairy Tori, behind it is not an overcrowded and bustling hall, but a pond of lotus ponds that are still emerald in the cold winter. The corridors on both sides of the lotus pond are tortuous, and the silk silk on the corridor is winding, ethereal like a fairy.

After bypassing the screen, they felt very warm, and the earth dragon passed under their feet, and the whole environment was as warm as spring.

Two healthy servants had already stepped forward, took off their coats, then held them in their hands, bent down and said with a smile: "Shen Gongzi, Fang Gongzi, please here!" ”

Along the corridor, you will come to a two-story hall with four or five small tables, the first floor of which is exquisitely furnished, and on the pink walls of the hall are several landscape paintings and handwritten couplets. Every design is unique.

There aren't many people in the hall, but it doesn't feel deserted. In the corner of the hall, there is a staff band playing softly, the sound is not high, not to make people feel noisy, everything is warm and comfortable.

Being at home is not a simple word, it seems that the owner of Ethereal House is really working hard to operate.

"Oh, Shen Gongzi, Fang Gongzi, you haven't been here in the slave family for a long time! Hurry, upstairs please! ”

Just when Shen Yun was still looking around, a sweet and glutinous voice sounded, which made Shen Yun finally find a little "prostitute/prostitute" feeling.

Without waiting for Shen Yun to turn around, he felt a faint fragrance, accompanied by the swaying skirt and ringing, a bright and moving bewitching woman, a jade-colored Luo shirt, a water red gauze skirt, holding a goose fan, and a graceful posture, just like the beauty in the picture of a lady.

The person who came was a beautiful woman, about thirty years old, the goose fan shook gently, quite charming, she came gracefully, followed by a green shirt maid, about fifteen or sixteen years old, and she was also delicate and lovely.

Shen Yun didn't know her, but she seemed to be quite familiar with Shen Yun, and as soon as she stepped forward, she saluted, and the goose fan fanned in front of Shen Yun, bringing a burst of fragrance.

Seeing Shen Yun's somewhat stunned face, Fang Cheng hurriedly smiled and said first: "Luo Niang is well!" I haven't come for many days, but these ten show apartments are becoming more and more warm! ”

The beautiful woman named Luo Niang covered her fan and chuckled: "Fang Gongzi said that he was laughing, it has always been like this." The two sons have not come for many days, how about going to Shixiu Yuhua Warm Pavilion to rest first? ”

Luo Niang obviously saw that Shen Yun seemed to be different from before, and observing words and emotions was the old business of a person like her, so naturally she would not force her to talk to Shen Yun anymore, so the other party transcribed her words.

It is called "Shixiu Apartment" here, and it is a branch hall in the middle of the ethereal center. There are a total of nine apartments and eighteen residences, all of which are places for people to have fun. Shen Yun was invited, but he didn't know who he was asking for, let alone where he was going to be. Seeing that this Luo Niang greeted her so kindly, she went upstairs with her.

The Flower Pavilion is not a special private room, but a place for guests to rest for a while. Order your food here and then get down to business.

"Lotus incense, pour a cup and watch the bee clusters for the two sons to taste." Sitting down in the elegantly laid out Flower Warming Pavilion, Luo Niang Yingying said to the maid behind her.

"Yes." The maid named Hexiang gently withdrew.

Fang Cheng hurriedly said: "Wait! He turned his head to Luo Niang and said, "Luo Niang doesn't need to be polite, Yuan and I came here because we were invited, and now we are just taking a break here." This view of the bee cluster, it's still not a taste! ”

Watching the bee cluster, it is a famous tea in Shu County. Each apartment has its own tea, and once the guests have drunk it, they have to stay in this apartment and have fun, and it is easy not to transfer to other apartments. Therefore, Fang Cheng hurriedly blocked it, lest he would not be unable to explain.

Luo Niang's seductive eyes turned slightly, looked at Shen Yun, who had always been a little restrained, and said softly: "Shen Gongzi doesn't want to taste the bee clusters of our Shixiu Apartment?" ”

Luo Niang knew that Fang Cheng was only the son of the world, and Shen Yun was the marquis, so his words were counted.

Shen Yun glanced at Fang Cheng and said with a slight smile: "It's better not to taste it for the time being." When someone came, I asked him to come to Luo Niang to taste tea together. ”

Luo Niang smiled, didn't care, asked Hexiang to serve an ordinary pot of tea, and talked softly with the two sons. While talking, this Luo Niang often covered her mouth and smiled, Luo shirt faded over her wrist, and the jade bracelet on her wrist reflected the snow-white and slender Hao wrist, which was stunning.

After chatting for a while, the music in the hall was silent, and it sounded softly. Luo Niang pretended to say suddenly: "Ah, it's time to unite!" ”

At this time, I heard a crisp voice outside Hua Nuan Pavilion: "Luo Niang, my young lady asks, is Shen Gongzi bothering here?" There is a guest surnamed Tu waiting for Shen Gongzi in Youwei Apartment! ”

Luo Niang's face sank. (To be continued.) )
