Yu Chi Amin twisted his thin waist and followed his father like a moving wicker. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The two of them went from Yongxingfang to Jingxingmen directly through the imperial city and Shunyi Gate to Buzheng Fang.
Because most of the old guards in the imperial city knew Yu Chi Baolin, even if a few new guards saw him wearing a red official robe embroidered with a tiger, they knew that he was a third-rank military general of the dynasty, and no one was embarrassed to stop him.
If ordinary people want to go from Yongxingfang to Buzheng Fang, you can only go south from Yongxingfang, until you go to the periphery of the imperial city, and then to the west, after passing through the three gates of Anmenmen, Suzaku Gate, and Hanguang Gate, and then go north, you will arrive at Buzheng Fang, and you will go around most of the circle, and walk seven or eight miles more.
Yu Chi Amin followed behind Yu Chi Baolin, happily like a sparrow, walking on the road with one bullet at a time. The vermilion narrow-sleeved shirt, white scarf, and green pomegranate skirt can't hide the charming body curves at all.
When passing by the Shunyi Gate, two thin willow sticks were broken off from a weeping willow on the side of the wide street, one was braided into an emerald ring, and put on the head of the combed lily bun, and the other was twisted into a willow ring, and placed on the lips of a fresh cherry.
The weeping willows are still around, the beauties are curling, and they are stunned by a few of the sons of Meng Lang on the side of the road, and they can't wait to swallow the beauty walking under the willow tree and the water into their stomachs.
After a while, I came to the Buzheng Fang, where the Buzheng Fang leaned on the street, there was a very magnificent house, and opened its own door on the wall of the square directly towards the city street, with two rows of halberd racks lined up at the door, and the guards of the Jiashihao slaves.
Clear-eyed people know at a glance that this is the home of princes and nobles or officials above the third grade, and only officials above the third rank can open the door to the street, but the door of ordinary people can only be opened to the inside.
The armor guard at the door recognized Yu Chi Baolin from afar, and hurriedly let the two into the house.
I saw the green fainting, the courtyard is deep, the curved bridge corridor, the flowing spring rockery, the Fengge Luan Building, the carved railing and painting building, there is no place not to see the exquisite and gorgeous.
Then often look at it from a distance, the ridge is high, the eaves are warped, and the white walls of Daiwa are like layers of mountains. This is the current mansion of Wei Chi Jingde.
This house, together with which house Yu Chi Baolin has in Yongxingfang, was originally Li Yuanji's house.
After the coup d'état in Xuanwumen, Li Shimin rewarded meritorious deeds, and Wei Chi Jingde and eldest grandson Wuji were designated as the first class. Each person was rewarded with 10,000 pieces of silk, and the money and utensils of the Qi Palace, as well as a number of mansions under Li Yuanji's name, were all rewarded to Wei Chi Jingde.
When Li Yuanji was the king of Qi, he was very good at collecting money, there were countless gold and silver at home, and there were more than ten houses in Chang'an City, all of which belonged to Yu Chi Jingde, and Yu Chi Jingde became a super-rich man in Chang'an City overnight.
Later, after Yu Chi Baolin got married, Yu Chi Jingde gave the house he lived in to Yu Chi Baolin in order to be quiet, and he moved to the house where he lives now.
As soon as he entered the house, Yu Chi Amin heard a mixture of gonghou, pipa and chi, etc., coming from a pavilion in the corner of the house, and a very funny scene came into view.
I saw a leopard's head ringed around his eyes, a beard like a halberd, and a pimple on his face, Wei Chi Jingde, dressed in a light cyan wide-sleeved robe, his hair was casually tied on the top of his head with an ivory flute, and he was holding a gonghou, puffing out his cheeks, and his two pairs of copper bell-sized eyes were about to fall out, and his body was shaking and blowing vigorously.
Next to the musicians some hold the sheng, some hold the zheng, some hold the pipa, some hold the chi, they seem to be infected by the old lieutenant chi, one by one to use the mixed solution, some hands pluck the strings like lightning, some of the cheeks agitate like a frog, some of the hard beating like a drum, in short, the eight immortals across the sea, each showing their magical powers, so lively.
Next to her, a female musician in her forties was singing with her voice:
"The grass in the wild fields is exhausted, the water is stormy, and I am often not full."
It turned out that Lao Wei Chi was leading a group of musicians to play Qingle.
Qingle is also known as Qing Shangqu, and was referred to as Qingle in the Sui and Tang dynasties. It is a kind of traditional music of the Han nationality that arose in the Three Kingdoms, the Two Jin Dynasties, and the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and occupied a dominant position in the musical life at that time.
It is the product of the combination of "Wu Sheng" and "Western Song" after the Jin Dynasty moved south, and it is the direct continuation and development of Xianghe Song.
Most of his works are based on love, and there is little realistic content that touches on social contradictions. Its style is generally more delicate and beautiful, but there are a few that reflect the hunger of the people. It is mainly used for official eunuchs, giant banquets, entertainment and other occasions, and is also used for palace New Year's Day court meetings, banquets, worship gods and other activities.
If you didn't see it with your own eyes, who would have thought that a generation of famous generals who fought on the battlefield and killed countless enemies would actually wear a Taoist robe and play music.
In fact, Wei Chi Jingde asked to go home for retirement as early as the fourteenth year of Zhenguan.
In the early days of Zhenguan, Wei Chi Jingde was honest and upright, and when he saw Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Changsun Wuji and others, he often ridiculed them to their faces, discussed their strengths and weaknesses, and gave nicknames to the members of the court from time to time.
Fang Xuanling, who was famous in history who was afraid of his wife, was nicknamed "Strict Wife".
The so-called beating people does not slap their faces, and scolding people does not expose their shortcomings, making a generation of virtuous ministers unable to raise their heads in front of courtiers.
It is also said that the eldest grandson Wuji has short legs and a long neck, and is nicknamed "Big Goose".
To say that the eldest grandson Wuji was a beautiful man when he was young, because the eldest grandson queen can marry Li Shimin, which means that she is also one in a hundred beautiful women, how ugly can his own brother be?
But Wei Chi Jingde just gave him such an ugly nickname, which made the eldest grandson Wuji very faceless.
In order to save face, the eldest grandson Wuji went home and asked his wife to make him a pair of clogs court boots, which boots are more than half a foot high, after putting them on, people suddenly looked a lot more majestic, deliberately shrunk his neck when he went to court, thinking:
Let you say that I have short legs and a long neck?
But the good situation is not long, once it rained in the morning, it happened to be snowing heavily, usually the eldest grandson Wuji wore such a high clog boots, and his walking was not very stable, and this snow, his heart was even more nervous. Accidentally, my feet slipped and I fell on my back, lying on the ground like a turtle, unable to get up.
Wei Chi Jingde happened to pass by and hurriedly walked over.
The eldest grandson Wuji thought to himself: This product is okay, I know how to pull the old man.
When he was about to stretch out a hand and hand it to Wei Chi Jingde, who knew that this guy took off the wooden shoes worn by the eldest grandson Wuji, held them in his hand, laughed and said to the onlookers:
"I said, why did the eldest grandson suddenly grow taller at such an old age? I see! ”
The onlookers laughed, making the eldest grandson Wuji so ashamed that he wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into.
Later, Fang Xuanling, who was familiar with poetry and books, gave full play to his imagination and gave him the nickname "Wei Chi Cannon", which is appropriate, who made him so cheap?
Later, several officials were talking and laughing together, and when they saw him coming, they closed their smiling faces and avoided him.
The eldest grandson Wuji, Li Daozong, Fang Xuanling and a few others were drinking in the restaurant, and when they saw him coming, Fang Xuanling hurriedly trotted to the counter to check out.
The relationship between Wei Chi Cannon and these people gradually deteriorated, forming a vicious circle, these people secretly said that he was unreasonable, and if they got close to him, sooner or later they would be nicknamed by him, and they would be humiliated by him.
Didn't you see Fang Xuanling and the eldest grandson Wuji? They are a great example of this!
After coming and going, most of the ministers of the DPRK and China ignored him, and Wei Chi Cannon felt bored, so he took the initiative to propose to Li Shimin to leave the capital and become a magistrate.
The ministers of the court have been quiet for a few years, but the good days are not long, and Wei Chi came back once in the middle of the cannon, and he almost blinded the eyes of Li Daozong, the king of Rencheng.
