Li Shan and his entourage of five rode all the way to the Zuihong Mansion, which is the largest brothel in Jingzhou, dozens of red lanterns hanging in the air lit up this street, and countless women and Gui Gong pulled pedestrians in front of the door. In fact, this place is not far from the Immortal Pavilion, and it is located along the Long Lake. On the long lake on the back of the drunken red building, the lights are red and green, the warblers are singing and dancing, and the drunken shouts of men and the sound of women laughing and playing can be heard from afar.

Li Shan's first time visiting the kiln, it is very novel, on the other hand, Sun Helian is already familiar with the way. The people of the Tang Dynasty were already romantic, not to mention these gentlemen, they must be the best among them.

Gui Gong, who had already had sharp eyes, saw Sun Helian and the others, and greeted him and said, "Oh, Sun Gongzi, you haven't been here for a while, please go upstairs, Xiao Taohong thinks that you are all thin." Sun Helian grabbed the shoulder of the duke and said, "I heard that a girl from Jinxi is going to summon the guests of the curtain today, but is it true?" The man grinned and said, "Sun, Sun, Sun Gongzi, it hurts." Yes, Miss Jinxi is really going to pick up guests today, don't worry, I'll find a few beautiful girls upstairs to serve you, and Miss Jinxi will naturally come out after a while. Sun Helian snorted and let go of the man, took out a piece of silver and threw it to him, "You look at the arrangement, and the rest will be rewarded to you." The prince hurriedly said: "Sun Gongzi, please inside, and a few sons will please." ”

The Buddha said, "If the road is narrow, then let it be narrower."

As soon as Li Shan and the others went up to the second floor, they saw Li Chengwei drinking with two kiln sisters in his arms. But it's right to think about it, Su Jinxi, the No. 1 Oiran in Jingzhou, is going to pick up guests, which is a bombshell in Jingzhou's world, so basically all the sons and brothers with a bit of identity in Jingzhou will come to the Red Mansion tonight, and Li Chengwei is here as a matter of course.

It was the enemy who was very red when they met, Li Chengwei also saw Li Shan, and immediately pushed away the two kiln sisters and stood up, and several people next to him dissuaded them, so they reluctantly sat down again. This is not a suburb, Li Chengwei does not have many people around him, and Li Shan is not afraid of him making trouble. Sun He even saw Li Chengwei a few times, and they all snorted and ignored him. The five of them, under the guidance of the man, found an empty table and sat down. After a while, a few dressed kiln sisters walked in, and the older one in the lead should be the old bustard, and said in a coquettish voice: "A few sons, today must also be here to support our Jinxi girl's field, don't worry, the girls accompany a few sons to be happy, Jinxi girl will come out immediately." ”

The old bustard spoke, and several kiln sisters immediately posted it, found the son who thought he was the richest and began to toast coquettishly. Li Shan, as the most plainly dressed among these people, was naturally ignored, but Li Shan didn't care, and Li Shan himself was not interested in these kiln sisters. However, Sun Helian was immediately unhappy when he saw Li Shan being snubbed by Sister Yao, and said: "You snobs, you have eyes but don't know the real talent, this Li Shan Gongzi is the main master, not only rich but also talented Jingzhou, if you let him take a fancy to it, making a poem for you will be enough for you to double your worth." ”

A kiln sister listened to Sun Helian's words and said: "Li Shangongzi, isn't it the Li Shangongzi who asked Xiange to compose a poem yesterday?" Fang Zicheng smiled: "That's right, it's that Li Shan." How's that, it's not good to stutter yet. As soon as these words came out, a few fast-moving kiln sisters posted up and said, "Hey, it turned out to be Li Gongzi." Our sisters are still saying, there is the one who is lucky enough to meet this merry talent, and he is actually here today, so I have to toast you a few glasses. Li Shan really hadn't seen this posture before, but he wasn't timid, after all, he came to this drunken red mansion to have fun, and immediately hugged one in his arms and laughed, and said: "I didn't expect this news to spread quickly, and I have already become famous after only one day?" ”

Another kiln sister said: "Yes, I heard that I asked the owner of the Xiange Restaurant to buy Li Gongzi's poems for a hundred taels of silver, which is really a good story." Li Gongzi also wrote a poem for our sisters. Sun Boyan said: "You guys, it's still far from wanting Brother Li to write poems, but Miss Jinxi and Brother Li's poems are a good match." Sister Yao also knew that Li Shan couldn't easily compose poems for them, so she had to tease Li Shan in every possible way, and she couldn't stop being coquettish.

Suddenly, the noisy second floor gradually quieted down, and Sun Helian said excitedly: "Miss Jinxi is out, Miss Jinxi is out." Li Shan followed Sun Helian's direction to look at the third floor, and a woman dressed in white and half-veiled walked down from the third floor slowly surrounded by a crowd. Although she can't see her appearance clearly, this woman is slim, slim, and not inferior to Liu Ruyan in figure, and they all say that the Tang people regard fat as beauty, but Li Shanjian's beauties are all slender and well-proportioned, which shows that the standard of true beauty is also unchanged through the ages. Su Jinxi's crystal clear eyes glanced around, and said softly: "Ladies and gentlemen, it's an honor for the little girl to come." If you are negligent, please forgive me, the little girl will play a song first, which can be regarded as making amends for your sons. ”

Su Jinxi used the pipa, and with a pair of jade hands gently playing on the pipa, a beautiful melody floated up. Sometimes it is as crisp as a stream, sometimes it is as eager as rain hitting plantains, sometimes it is soothing like a drizzle, and sometimes it is fierce as a golden iron horse. Sun Helian, Fang Zicheng and the others, as well as the people present, were all fascinated by what they heard, except for Li Shan. It's not that Su Jinxi doesn't play well, it's just that Li Shan really can't appreciate this song, and there is still a huge generation gap in the historical gap of more than 1,000 years. It's like letting a Chinese listen to an Italian opera, I think most people will fall asleep.

The second half of the tune was slow and tactful, and Li Shan, who listened directly, was sleepy, and finally couldn't support it, and a huge haze came out. Originally, the scene was silent, only Sizhu was heard, but the atmosphere was disturbed by such a loud noise. Li Shan immediately became the target of public criticism, and several unfriendly eyes were cast from all directions, but Li Shan didn't realize it, and took a nap on the chest of a kiln sister next to him and closed her eyes to take a nap, the kiln sister wished that Li Shan would ignore Su Jinxi, and quickly hugged Li Shan to his chest and massaged his temples with both hands.

At the end of the song, Li Chengwei immediately got up and cheered: "Miss Jinxi is really a fairy, the song "Green Waist" is touching, it is really lingering, and I don't know the taste of meat in March." However, just now, there was a small man who made a strange sound when Miss Jinxi was playing, in a vain attempt to sensationalize the public, he really didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and he didn't hurry up and drive him out. Saying that, a few house slaves beside him got up and walked towards Li Shan. At this time, Li Shan was drowsy, and he didn't hear Li Chengwei's words at all. However, Sun Helian and the others naturally would not let Li Chengwei succeed, and glared angrily: "Who dares to move?" ”

The old bustard is so clever, how can he let them fight and stir up the situation, so he hurriedly came out and said: "Hey, Li Gongzi is really an elegant person who pities the fragrance and cherishes the jade, don't spoil your interest because of this little thing." Today is the day when our family Jinxi leaves the cabinet, and Li Gongzi should feel sorry for our family Jinxi. Li Chengwei naturally coveted Su Jinxi, and it was not easy to entangle after hearing the words of the old bustard, so he motioned for the house slave to come back.

The old bustard breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that there was no intention of doing anything on both sides, and he didn't know that he had scolded this Li Shan hundreds of times, but his face was full of sadness: "Our family Jinxi grew up in our drunken red mansion since she was a child, and I think she is closer than her own daughter." But the woman is not staying, no matter how reluctant she is, she can't resist the kindness of the sons. I was ruthless to let our Jinxi girl out of the cabinet, and I was embarrassed to let the sons break the bank, and the overnight fee of twenty taels of silver must not be much. ”

When some of the sons with a slightly inferior family heard the twenty taels of silver, they couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh, and the bare threshold was already beyond their reach. Li Chengwei was generous and naturally didn't care, and glanced at everyone and said contemptuously: "How can twenty taels of silver match the identity of Miss Jinxi, Li is willing to give thirty taels, just for Miss Jinxi's joy overnight." As soon as these words came out, there was another gasp. Sun Helian said angrily: "If it weren't for my tight money recently, I would definitely kill this guy's prestige, Brother Lu, if you have spare money, lend me some first." Thirty taels of silver is already a lot of money, even Sun He can't even take out so much for a while, and Lu Boyan also gave a helpless expression.

After listening to Li Chengwei's words, the old bustard couldn't help but say with joy: "Master Li is young and golden, so generous, how can the old body be easy to push." Just as she was about to say more, Su Jinxi interrupted: "Mom, today is the day when Jinxi leaves the pavilion, please let Jinxi decide everything." When the old bustard heard this, his face was displeased, but he had no choice but to say: "Our girl also deeply feels the friendship of Li Gongzi, but so many sons here are all coming for Miss Jinxi, and my girl is not good and is not cold." I thought of a way to meet friends in writing. No matter who Miss Jinxi likes tonight, it only takes twenty taels to be the guest of this scene. ”

Su Jinxi also stood up and walked to the front of the second floor and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, although the little woman is in the dust, she has always been clean and self-conscious. The little girl likes poetry and books since she was a child, and she admires the talent of the literary brilliance the most. ”

After Li Chengwei heard this, his face couldn't help but change slightly, he thought that with his wealth, Su Jinxi would be able to catch him, but he didn't expect it to be such a game. He looked at Li Shan, who was still asleep, vigilantly, and turned around and asked, "Du Ziteng, are you sure that you can defeat that Li Shan this time." Du Ziteng said: "Don't worry, Lord Li, I dare to assert that the last competition was a trap deliberately set by that kid." At that time, we felt that the poem seemed to be done casually, but after thinking about it, he proposed the competition, and the topic was also proposed by him, and he deliberately found fault at that time to provoke the son to compete. Thinking about the causes and consequences of this matter, this kid must have planned it in advance, and the poem must have been written by someone in advance, that is, in order to deceive a good reputation, I later heard that the boss of Xiange bought his poem for one hundred taels of silver, who would be stupid enough to buy a poem for one hundred taels of silver? They must have colluded to create a gimmick for the restaurant. If you look at his current appearance, he is obviously a wine bag and a rice bag, and he doesn't know how to write and ink. ”

Li Chengwei also felt that it made sense when he heard it, nodded and said, "It's up to you, this time there must be no more mistakes." Du Ziteng also gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, Lord Li, I will definitely let that kid be revealed in his true form this time." ”

Li Chengwei received a satisfactory answer, and also gained confidence, showed a smile that he thought was charming, and raised his voice: "As the so-called talent is matched with a beautiful woman, Miss Jinxi is so beautiful and proficient in poetry, literature and music, naturally she can't let some wine bags and rice bags be tainted." Please also ask Miss Jinxi to ask the question, Li will definitely not disappoint the girl. ”
