Chapter 564: Gentle Township, Pingkangfang
A few flaps of a butterfly's wings in the rainforest of the Masun River can cause a tornado in Texas two weeks later. What kind of political storm will the uproar set off by the Yushitai in the central, southeastern, and southwestern regions of the Great Zhou Dynasty set off in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty?
Yang Fan didn't know how big this storm was, but he knew that it must not be too small, anyway, his business was over, and there was no need to step into this political whirlpool, so he wisely avoided Luoyang City and went straight to Chang'an.
It stands to reason that if the southbound journey is calm this time, then it would be okay for him to go straight to Chang'an, but so many things have happened on the southbound road, and the most important thing a dutiful or shrewd official should do at this moment is to return to the capital and appear in front of his emperor in time.
Whether it is to listen to inquiries or offer advice, this is the duty of a courtier, which can be favored by the emperor. The emperor's favor was far less tempting to Yang Fan than the moment when his biological flesh and blood were just born, and he glanced at him.
Moreover, he was the one who chased the people of Yushitai to extinguish the fire all the way, and after he beheaded two Qincha in a row, he was also the one who persuaded the chieftains of Yaozhou, Manzhou and Panzhou to burn the fire to the Vientiane Shrine.
Therefore, because Wu Zetian's original instructions were not clear, and there was no clear explanation as to whether Princess Taiping would need him to escort her when she returned from Chang'an, Yang Fan decisively went to Chang'an. However, I don't know how big the turmoil is, can I avoid it if I avoid Chang'an City?
The wind is invisible, the clouds are invisible, and the world is impermanent.
Who knows if he will step into a more complex and dangerous whirlpool?
Chang'an, arrived.
When he first entered Chang'an City, Yang Fan almost thought that he had returned to Luoyang, everything here is so similar to Luoyang, the pattern of the city is similar to Luoyang, the same horizontal and vertical streets, the same squares that are separated by a high wall, and the same acacia, elm and weeping willows that are planted on the side of the road for at least a hundred years.
Take a few more steps. He found the difference again.
The roadside drainage ditch here is wider and deeper than in Luoyang. And it's all open ditches, so every intersection has to be bridged.
There are also millions of people here, which is not less than Luoyang, but walking on the street, it always gives people a feeling of sparse population, which is far less lively than Luoyang, because the city is bigger than Luoyang and the streets are wider than Luoyang.
The group entered the city. So he rushed to Pingkangfang.
Yang Fan also has Hu Yuanli, Sun Yuxuan and Long Wuwei's brigade by his side, so he can't leave everyone as soon as he enters the city, and fly to find Pei Da Niang's house and meet his daughter-in-law. Therefore, he could only go to see Princess Taiping first, and Princess Taiping's mansion was in Pingkangfang.
Turn along Suzaku Street, which is 100 steps wide, into Pingkangfang. That feeling of sparse population was suddenly swept away.
The inside of the workshop and the street are completely different from the several shops that you pass along the way, and it is very different from the people who come and go.
Orchids in exotic national costumes beckon, smiling at their intoxicating blue eyes, are waving to you warmly. The deep cleavage on the towering breasts. The aroma of the liquor wafting from the shop will linger in your mind......
The charm of the exotic beauty has not yet been waved. In front of him, two young women wearing "scarlets" came to him, followed by two young maids in Tsing Yi. A brimmed hat, a thin black veil that extends from the brim of the young woman's hat to her knees, envelops the whole person, and the posture is graceful and infinite.
Compared with the orchid who sells wine, this kind of woman dressed in the ancient style of the Qin and Han dynasties has a unique taste.
Musical instrument shops, bookstores, jewelry stores, valerian shops, wine shops, porridge and cake shops, row upon row......
There are not only Tang people, but also Turks, Uighurs, Tocharians and Sogdians, and even Kunlun Nu, Goryeo women, Persian Hu, Nulinyi, Fan monks, Taoist people, etc., all kinds of people, as if the whole shijie has been condensed here.
Although Yang Fan entered Chang'an City, his mood became more urgent, and when he saw such a scene, he couldn't help but praise: "This Pingkang Fang is so lively. ”
Yang Fan has never been to Chang'an, and he doesn't know that this is the most prosperous and lively place in Chang'an except for the East and West markets. The reason why Pingkangfang is prosperous is because it is a place of sound and sex and play.
In the entire Chang'an City, there are the most prostitutes in Pingkangfang. Of course, although this Pingkang Fang is the romantic Xue Ze in Chang'an City, not the entire Fang is a fireworks willow lane. The prostitutes in Pingkangfang are concentrated in the north, and the people living in the south, east, and west are still ordinary people.
Li Jing, Duke of Weiguo, Chu Suiliang, Duke of Henan County, Hou Chuliang of Yangzhai County, and Kong Yingda, the priest of Guozi, and other officials who once served as important ministers of the imperial court, are all here. In the royal family, Lanling Princess Li Shu and Taiping Princess Li Lingyue also have mansions in this place.
The north of Pingkangfang is the place with the highest concentration of brothels.
Entering the north gate, it is the three songs of the north and south. There are many small prostitutes in Beiqu, most of whom are mothers and daughters, and women inherit their mother's business to make a living; Nanqu is dominated by famous prostitutes, a prostitute on the first floor, like a study, such as princes and nobles are difficult to kiss Fangze, and the assets of the head are also high and scary; Zhongqu is a large prostitute with many homes, including prostitutes in three, six, nine, etc., rich and have their own natural beauty and national color for you to pick, and there is no money and there are old prostitutes with you for entertainment.
"That's nature!"
Hu Yushi, who has always been unsmiling, listened to Yang Fan's words, and showed a smile on his face that only a man can understand: "Brother, this is Pingkangfang, a gentle township in Chang'an City." I remember that when the old man was admitted to the Jinshi, after reading the list, all the new Jinshi were in high spirits, and they met together to get drunk and enjoy the flowers in this Pingkang Fang, haha, crazy all night, crazy all night! ”
Ma Qiao pouted and said: "You scholars, you are really stupid to read, you can't find any fun at all, and when you win the Jinshi, you actually enjoy the flowers." But I don't know what flower is the most famous in Chang'an City, Lao Hu, are you appreciating peony flowers or morning glories? ”
Hu Yuanli gave his boss a roll of his eyes, and said angrily: "What a stupid cow, to enjoy the flowers in this Pingkang Fang, of course, is to appreciate the flowers of women!" ”
Ma Qiaoqi said: "Woman flower? Is there still this kind of flower, I heard it for the first time, Brother Fan, let's go back and enjoy it together, if it's really good-looking, I'll get a pot back to Luoyang. ”
Yang Fan couldn't help but smile and said: "Women are flowers, women are like flowers." The woman flower that Brother Hu said is naturally a beauty here. Come to think of it, this Pingkang Fang is like Luoyang's Gentle Fang, and there are a lot of Qinglou wine shops! ”
Hu Yuanli smiled: "Exactly! The women in the Qinglou here are graceful, eloquent, well-behaved, and most of them are proficient in poetry and songs. Whether you are a young man in Kyoto, a splash in the market, a literati, or a rich gentleman, they can taste the flow separately, weigh the characters, and coax you to stay and forget to return according to your taste and habits......"
When Ma Qiao heard that it was a brothel, he rubbed his nose and said with a dry smile: "When you go to the kiln, you talk about visiting the kiln, and what do you say about women's flowers, I am not a scholar, how can I understand the flowers you dropped in your bookbag." If it's a kiln, it doesn't matter if you don't go, you don't have to spend money on them. ”
Hu Yuanli shook his head again and again, and said: "Young people are romantic, when you are old, you always have an aftertaste, if you reach the age of the old man, you don't have so much capital to go crazy." ”
Sun Yuxuan nodded again and again on the side, looking deeply approving.
Yang Fan pretended not to see the very pretty Hu Fei girl, who was wearing a soldier's uniform, with red lips and white teeth, and was riding a horse to approach Sun Yuxuan, and asked him loudly: "So, Brother Sun also had an affair when he was admitted to the Jinshi examination?" ”
Sun Yuxuan smiled retrospectively: "Hehe, which young scholar wasn't like this back then?" Once you are admitted to the Jinshi, all of you will go in the same year, and you will not be drunk and lie in the arms of the beauty, how to compensate for the bitterness of these years of hard study. I remember that when I went to Beijing to catch the exam, I lived in Luoyang Mission Workshop and rented a room there to prepare for the exam.
During this period, I went to Gentle Square with a few friends. Gentleness Fang entered from the west gate, the first wine shop, there was a Persian sommelier in it, this girl can sing and dance, the figure is charming, Sun is love at first sight, those days, I often go to drink, not to drink, just to be able to hear her talk, to see her posture......"
Sun Yuxuan remembered his bitter love for the beautiful Persian girl back then, and his face couldn't help but show a little infatuation.
Ma Qiao also saw Miss Hu Fei, her beautiful big eyes were narrowing dangerously, Ma Qiao couldn't help but smile and asked, "What about this Persian girl?" ”
Sun Yuxuan lowered his head and said sadly: "I was hired by a wealthy man from Yangzhou." On the day I was admitted to the Jinshi, I rushed to the hotel in a hurry, but I didn't see her, and when I asked the store, it was really like five thunders......
Yang Fan said with a smile: "I didn't expect Sun Langzhong to be an amorous seed, could it be that you still miss her?" ”
Sun Yuxuan sighed: "I love the first person in my life, how can I forget it?" I ......"
As he spoke, he raised his head, and suddenly glanced at Miss Hu Fei out of the corner of his eye, Sun Yuxuan's heart jumped, his face did not change, he immediately changed his words, and said calmly: "However, since I have Miss Hu, I can no longer let go of other people in my heart." ”
Yang Fan hahadaxiao said: "If you say this, you should keep it and confess to Miss Hu, it's useless to tell us." ”
Yang Fan daxiao patted his horse away, Hu Yuanli and Ma Qiao also followed with a snicker, and only Sun Yuxuan was left behind with a sad face facing the girl Hu Fei with a sweet smile.
Miss Hu Fei also eyebrows, smiled, and her voice was sweet and greasy: "People really don't know that Brother Ah has so many romantic pasts, is that girl's name Persia?" It doesn't sound like the name of the Han family, where is she from, and who is more beautiful compared to others? ”
As Miss Hu Fei spoke, a pair of slender fingers made a gesture to pinch the soft flesh on Sun Yuxuan's waist. A moment later, a miserable scream sounded in Pingkangfang, followed by Sun Yuxuan's sad and angry cry: "The surname is Yang, you are not enough friends......
P: Good morning friends, I sincerely ask for today's recommendation vote! (To be continued.) )
