Chapter Twenty-Nine: Flying Snow Pavilion
"The silver silk is like snow Lingbo dancing, and the sound of heaven is drunk in the capital", which is talking about this Feixue Yue Lan Pavilion.
In the capital, if someone says that they don't know Feixue Yue Lan Pavilion, it's like the Tang people don't know who their emperor's surname is, and they will definitely be laughed at.
The best wine, the most beautiful woman, the most charming dance and the most moving song, these four things are the signature of Feixue Yue Lan Pavilion, and they are also known as the "Four Treasures".
The sunset is at the end of the mountain, and the afterglow dyes the capital in the evening with a layer of warm yellow. On the most prestigious Chang'an Avenue in the center of the city, a majestic three-storey pavilion stands here, the big red ribbon connects from the golden eaves to the ground, showing the luxury and festivity, and the carved windows are inlaid with gold arches, making this building exude elegance and atmosphere everywhere. On the archway, the place where the five big characters of "Feixue Yue Lan Pavilion" is written with the name of Lin Zhongjing, the master of calligraphy of the Tang Dynasty, and only this plaque is worth a thousand gold.
In a courtyard next to the building, there are all kinds of carriages, all of which are good horses, and all of them are noble and luxurious. The guests entering and exiting the gate are all outstanding in temperament, either they are talented people who move the capital, or children of prominent officials, or famous businessmen who are rich and rival the country. If you don't have a bit of status, I'm afraid you don't even have the qualifications to get started.
Just looking at this formation, Tang An was secretly speechless. is a Feixue Yue Lan Pavilion, and it is really a big pomp, even if it is the most famous gold cave in the previous life, it will be overshadowed in comparison.
"Young master, this kiln is not cheap to visit." Tang An sighed.
Cheng Caihe glanced at him with disdain, and said, "How can this be a kiln?" Don't say it and make people laugh. This is the largest Lingguan Art Hall in Beijing, and the performances are elegant arts. Although the officials inside are all like flowers, they are all selling their arts. ”
Selling art or not selling yourself? It's like me, I'm just selling my body and not my show. Tang An said with a smile: "When you are a bitch and you have to set up an archway, isn't this elevating your status and making the women inside more strange to live in?" ”
"No, no." Cheng Caihe shook his head and pretended to be an intellectual, "I say this because you don't know this place yet." It is indeed not a green building here, how can the art hall opened by Feng Zhilan do such a lowly business. ”
"Feng Zhilan? Who's that? Tang An asked like a studious elementary school student.
Cheng Caihe rarely saw Tang An exuding such a dirty side, and his vanity was greatly satisfied. After selling it, he said, "Let's go in and talk about it." ”
As soon as the two of them entered the door, they only listened to the silk and bamboo in the lobby, which was extremely pleasant. The maids in brocade robes are all young and beautiful, and they must be first-class goods when they are placed on the street. The velvet carpet embroidered with phoenix goes straight to the inside, and it is extremely soft to step on, and the guests on both sides are full, so it is not lively.
The interior of the building is in the shape of a hollow, with an open courtyard in the middle, which makes the space look extraordinarily open, and the corridors on both sides of the first and second floors are filled with tables and chairs, so that guests can enjoy the best view. The lotus lantern holds the ever-bright candle, and the room is covered with a layer of hazy light color, which is very soft.
The most eye-catching thing is the lotus pond in the middle of the house, with clear water and swimming fishtails. The pond is surrounded by blooming orchids, which look relaxing and pleasant, and the faint fragrance pervades the atmosphere, making people intoxicated.
In the center of the pool, a huge semi-circular white marble dance pool seems to float on the water, and the copper lamps reflect it, like a dream. This is the stage for the officials to perform their stunts - Feixue Yuelantai.
Tang An was stunned to look at this ubiquitous and gorgeous art museum, only feeling that he was a frog at the bottom of the well, and he couldn't imagine that there was such a gentle township in the world. Sitting in such a room, even if you don't watch the show and just drink tea and chat, it is a top-notch enjoyment.
"Cheng Gongzi, why do you have time to come to Feixue Yue Lan Pavilion today?" Seeing the two of them enter the house, a middle-aged woman dressed differently greeted her with a smile on her face, and personally served tea to Cheng Fatzi to ward off the cold, but she didn't seem to see Tang An. It's not that she's rude, it's that Tang An is dressed as a subordinate, so it's naturally difficult to get into people's eyes.
Cheng Yunhe's son, such a signboard is weighty enough. Cheng Caihe obviously knew this woman, and said: "I heard that everyone Liu is going to appear today, and Caihe made an appointment with a partner, and specially came to feast his eyes, there is Sister Lao Dong." ”
"Cheng Gongzi is polite." The woman surnamed Dong, who seemed to be in charge of the lobby, smiled appropriately, led the two to an empty table, bowed, and went to greet other guests.
"This woman's surname is Dong, she is the confidant of the Feng family, and she is also the steward of Feixue Yue Lan Pavilion." Cheng Fatzi took a sip of tea and introduced to Tang An, but his eyes were fixed on other people's butts.
This fat man, pretending to be Sven, really looks like that, but he is still such a beast in his heart. Tang An also learned to take a sip of tea and asked, "Young Master, you haven't said who this Feng family is." ”
"Oh, yes, yes." Cheng Caihe nodded, and looked at him suspiciously, "You don't even know the 'Fengmen Superb Art', right?" ”
Tang An nodded awkwardly and said, "Young master, you also know that my family is poor, and it would be good to have a full meal, how can I have the leisure to understand this?" ”
Cheng Caihe showed an understanding expression and said: "Fengmen is also called Phoenix Terrace, which is the ultimate goal of dancers in the world. When the first family today, Feng Zhiyao, known as the 'Phoenix Dance Nine Days', is now the master of Fengmen. ”
"That's amazing!" Tang An was speechless. According to Cheng Caihe, isn't this Fengmen the best artist packaging company now? Feng Zhiyao, this name is still quite nice. After thinking about it, he asked, "Then what is the relationship between the Feng Zhilan that the young master just said and this Feng Sect?" ”
"Feng Zhilan Feng is the senior sister of Feng Zhiyao, and she is expected to become a peerless figure of the Fengmen Sect Master back then. It's a pity that the world makes people, and later there was a more amazing and gorgeous Feng Zhiyao, and in one fell swoop, he practiced the deepest 'Phoenix Dance Nine Days' stunt in Fengmen, and became the pillar of Fengmen. Feng Zhilan was in a gloomy mood, so she quietly retired and came to the capital to open this Feixue Yue Lan Pavilion. ”
This art hall was opened by a person who almost became the number one in the world back then? No wonder there is such a big formation. Tang An said secretly.
"The name of this Feixue Yue Lan Pavilion also has some stories." Cheng Caihe continued to show off, "Actually, this art hall was originally called 'Yue Lan Pavilion', 'Lan' and 'Lan' have the same sound, and everyone in Feng must want to please others and themselves." It's just that later the Feng family accepted an apprentice, this apprentice has excellent qualifications and peerless elegance, and he is a rare dance wizard in a hundred years. ”
Tang An slapped his thigh and said, "Isn't it the Liu singing that the young master mentioned?" ”
"It's Liu Tingge!" Cheng Cai glanced at him, as if he was very dissatisfied with him not calling the name of the goddess. "This Liu girl is talented and intelligent, inherits the skills of the Feng family, singing and dancing, and can be said to be proud of the crowd in my Datang, and people give the nickname 'Silver Silk Flying Snow, Singing and Dancing Unique'."
"Silverwire? How does this mean? Tang An asked again.
"Ugh." Cheng Caihe sighed and said: "Maybe it's the jealousy of the red face, this Liu girl is beautiful and charming, the moon is shy of flowers, and she has a unique art, her reputation is not comparable to that of 'Little Zhuge 'Blue Begonia, and some good people have made these two people into 'Beijing Shuangbi', which shows how beautiful it is." The only regret is that Miss Liu's head is full of green silk, but it is snow-white. But it is precisely because of this that Miss Liu can be different. ”
The white-haired witch? Tang An was a little surprised, he didn't expect that this No. 1 dancer in the capital turned out to be a white-haired girl. said: "Then does this 'flying snow' refer to Liu Qingge?" ”
Cheng Caihe said: "Yes, everyone Feng is grateful to the apprentices for the dedication of Yuelan Pavilion, and specially added Miss Liu to it, so the current building is called Feixue Yuelan Pavilion." ”
