Chapter 33 Idleness is idleness

"What's wrong with this master, why is he so angry!" It just so happened that at this time, the guy who was holding wine for Huo Guang walked into the lobby again. As soon as he saw that the man was suddenly furious, he didn't care about greeting Huo Guang, so he ran forward quickly. However, it was inconvenient for him to hold the wine jug in his hand, so he put it on Huo Guang's table.

Huo Guang didn't care about this, turned over a clay cup on the table, and poured some wine from the pot. At this time, the Western Han Dynasty did not have the luminous cup in the 'grape wine luminous cup' in later poems, and such a tavern did not even have a copper wine bottle, because the state was still very strict in the management of metals such as copper and iron in the Western Han Dynasty, and many metal utensils could not be used by ordinary people.

"You think we're here to drink your wine, there are a lot of wine cellars in my house, I heard that there is a Li Yan beauty in your tavern, her singing and dancing are all first-class, let her come out and present a song." Although the man's words were aggressive, he was not measured, at least until now he had not made any physical movements.

Huo Guang saw all this in his eyes, he didn't have the heart to care about these idle things, and listening to this person's tone, it was obvious that there was some status in the family, and it was impossible to know that he could store wine at home without some financial resources. And Huo Guang also wants to take this opportunity to see who Li Yan is in this person's mouth at this moment!

"Yo, it turns out that Childe is also here for Sister-in-law Li Yan, don't worry, Childe Sister-in-law Li Yan will arrive soon. Childe, please try the wine of our store first, and I'll urge you. This guy is also a slick man, and it seems that he often copes with such situations, and in a few words it makes the man a little angry.

As for the guy calling the sister-in-law Li Yan, who has not yet appeared, this is in line with the name of the Western Han Dynasty. Because before the Song Dynasty, there was no such title as a girl, and in the Han Dynasty, unmarried women were called 'sister-in-law'. There is an article "Qingxi Sister-in-law" in the ancient music house, one of which is "The sister-in-law lives and is alone." ’

"Hmph, that's not going to go. As long as Ben Gongzi is happy, the reward will be enough for you to work for several years. The man snorted coldly, and sat down again with a flick of his sleeve.

Huo Guang only felt that this person was quite generous, but he was happy to watch these people perform, anyway, it was boring to be idle now.

Sure enough, not long after the guy hurriedly ran to the back, Huo Guang saw a young girl walking out of it calmly and slowly, this girl was not very old, and she seemed to be the same age as Huo Guang now. And when he saw this girl for the first time, even Huo Guang was moved by her appearance, and now he understood why this man was so excited just now.

This girl's dress can only be regarded as ordinary, but it is better than her outstanding temperament, as clear and beautiful as a hibiscus out of the water, and then look at the charm between her steps, as if walking between them are natural, like a dance, there is a charm.

Just as the girl appeared, a few Huren dancers in the center of the tavern automatically retreated. And the girl did not look at the man who was clamoring to see her, but walked straight to the small stage in the center of the tavern.

It seemed that the guests in the tavern were attracted by the girl's appearance, and the whole tavern was surprisingly quiet, and everyone's eyes moved with the girl's movements. There was no prelude, no music, and in a moment the girl stood in the center, and began to dance with the wave of her sleeves.

It wasn't until the girl's voice came a pleasant song that all the people in the tavern came to their senses. Huo Guang has not seen the dancing posture of the Han Dynasty, but the development of the media in later generations has already made Huo Guang's aesthetics to a heinous point, but the dancing posture of the girl in front of him is not gorgeous, and even can only be regarded as a simple dance, but Huo Guang is amazed.

As for this girl's singing, with a strong ancient style, the lyrics are a little awkward compared to later generations, and even Huo Guang didn't understand the meaning of the lyrics. However, this does not affect the artistic conception of the song, just like many Chinese people in later generations do not understand foreign languages, but the beautiful melody with the superb singing voice can also make people enjoy beauty!

"I didn't expect that a random tavern in Chang'an City would have such a peerless beauty! How many beauties are there in this Chang'an City? Huo Guang felt that there was such a beautiful person performing, even if it was still a pleasing thing two thousand years ago, and now he sighed in his heart, poured a glass of wine and tasted it slowly, Huo Guang felt at this time that this kind of enjoyment may not be available in future generations!

The beauty performed, and the whole tavern was very quiet, even the man who was shouting before was quiet, and his face was even more intoxicated. Huo Guang couldn't help but sigh, this love for beauty really everyone has, even if he regarded himself as an outsider at the beginning, in fact, he was not exempt from vulgarity.

"Beauty...... It's so beautiful......" Before I knew it, the girl's song was over, and the audience in the tavern couldn't help but admire.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if the little sister's skills can still be valuable, please reward some small money. Later, my brother and sister will be performing for the guests. Suddenly, a man in his twenties walked up to the girl and said, holding a clay plate in both hands, and no one noticed when he appeared.

"Heh, it turns out that he is really an artist." Huo Guang looks at this posture, which is exactly the same as the street performances on TV. However, judging by the performance of the rich man at the beginning, the two brothers and sisters should be permanently here.

After the girl's brother had finished speaking, he walked up to a few guests on the side of the tavern with a clay pan, and these guests did not spare a few small coins, and took out a few coins and threw them into the clay pan. Soon the girl's brother came to Huo Guang with a smile on his face, Huo Guang is not a stingy person, he reached out and opened the money bag on his waist to take out the money, not to mention that the girl's dancing and singing voice is really pleasing to the eye.

However, when Huo Guang opened the money bag on his waist, he was slightly stunned at first. Because he found that the money bag contained several gold cakes, which were not alloyed, but real gold, and the smallest of them was also worth a lot of money, worth more than three thousand dollars. Huo Guang didn't expect Huo Quzhi to prepare so much money for himself, just the gold cake in this money bag is enough for ordinary people to live in peace and stability for a lifetime.

Huo Guang was only slightly stunned, and took the smallest gold cake from the money bag and put it on the clay plate. But his shot immediately caused an exclamation. Not only the young brother who was close at hand, but also the guests in the other seats were surprised.

Although there are many powerful people in Chang'an City, and there are many people who are generous, I have never heard of anyone who gives a reward and takes a golden cake. Huo Guang actually thought about it when he decided to take out the golden cake, after all, it was too ostentatious, but he immediately thought about it again, anyway, his brother wanted to show off a little bit by himself, and Huo Guang also had a love for this girl in his heart, if he was bored in the future, it would be a good pastime to listen to her sing and dance, so Huo Guangcai decided to use the golden cake as a reward.

"Thank you, childe...... Thank you, childe......" The girl's brother nodded vigorously, facing such a heavy temptation, how could he not lose his temper as an advocate.

"Brother can't ...... The little woman Li Yan thanked her son first, but this dance music is never worthy of such a heavy amount of money from her son. Li Yan, who was still standing in the distance, lost her mind slightly, and suddenly opened her mouth to stop her brother from accepting Huo Guang's golden cake.

"Hey, this woman named Li Yan is really not simple. It's really rare not to be tempted in the face of such temptation! Huo Guang heard this, and looked at this Li Yan even more differently.

"Hehe, it doesn't matter. I came out in a hurry today, and there were no broken coins on my body. The sister-in-law's dance music is intoxicating, and a little money is nothing, you just accept it. Huo Guang really didn't care about this bit of gold, so he comforted the two brothers and sisters.

"Hmph, that's really nothing. You come here, and this son will also be rewarded. As soon as Huo Guang's words fell, a very unfriendly voice came from the side, it was the rich man who was shouting before.

"Come, this is your reward." The rich man was holding a piece of gold cake in his hand, and Huo Guang found that this size of gold cake was exactly the same as the largest one in his money bag, and it seemed that it should be the largest gold currency.

In fact, Huo Guang didn't know that although gold was cast into gold cakes of different sizes during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, these gold cakes were not circulated in the market as currency, but as equivalent currency for bulk goods transactions, and were usually used by the Han Dynasty to trade horses and silk with the countries of the Western Regions.

Huo Guang met the rich man's unkind gaze, and only smiled back slightly. Because Huo Guang also felt a little ridiculous, he was just a spectator, but he was regarded as a competitor by this man. However, Huo Guang didn't want to fight for anything, he just smiled and ignored him.

"Boy, let me tell you, this Li Yan's son has taken a fancy to it. As long as my sister-in-law is willing to return home with me, this bag of gold will belong to you, and I will ensure that your brother and sister will enjoy endless glory and wealth in the future! The rich man glared at Huo Guang, but Huo Guang didn't look at him, it seemed that he also felt bored, so he directly took a money bag from the hand of the entourage beside him, and then put it heavily in the clay plate of Li Yan's brother.

It seems that this bag of gold is indeed a lot, and Brother Li Yan's arm holding the plate has sunk a lot. But this sudden change made the brother and sister a little stunned, and they neither agreed nor refused for a while.

"There's a good show to watch now, these two people are generous enough, I think the bag of gold is ten catties, even if you buy some good-looking women, you can buy more than ten. But look at that young man is not an idle person, see how he copes? Things seemed to have suddenly become a little dramatic, and the drinkers in the tavern all started talking one by one, focusing all their eyes on Huo Guang and the rich man.

"Hehe, this gentleman is really rich! But you don't seem to have asked what your sister-in-law means? Huo Guang smiled helplessly. He was really unlucky, he was inexplicably involved in a fight when he entered a tavern, but Huo Guang thought about it like this, if this matter reached the ears of Emperor Wu of Han, then Emperor Wu of Han would definitely think that he was fighting for a woman and people, maybe Emperor Wu of Han would be very happy.

Because this exposes Huo Guang's weakness of greedy beauty, although this weakness is deliberately done by Huo Guang, as long as Emperor Wu of Han is serious. Of course, if this matter wants to develop according to Huo Guang's heart, it depends on Li Yan's attitude, in case people really can't resist the temptation of gold, they won't be able to manage this idle matter.

"Although the little woman is an advocate woman, she is also innocent and free. Mr. is rich but has nothing to do with Li Yan, even if Mr. is a prince, he is not a person who belongs to the little woman. The little woman has no talent and no virtue, but she asks for a single-minded person, and the white head is inseparable! After a short period of stunnedness, Li Yan refused without much thought.

However, Li Yan's words made Huo Guang's heart move, what Li Yan said was not at all like what an ordinary woman could say, but like a lady who read poetry and books. And this is not what Huo Guang really pays attention to, what makes Huo Guang most interested is Li Yan's last sentence. If the historical records are not bad, the sentence 'But ask for one heart, the white head is not separated' should be from the hand of Zhuo Wenjun, and Zhuo Wenjun should still be alive at this time.

Could it be that this Li Yan has anything to do with Zhuo Wenjun?

"Sir, it seems that the falling flowers are intentionally ruthless!" Huo Guang suddenly looked at the rich man with some smugness and teased.

"Hmph, boy, it seems that you really have to take care of this idle matter?" The rich man also felt that Li Yan's words hurt his face very much, and he suddenly felt that Huo Guang was to blame for all this, so he said viciously.

"Anyway, being idle is idle, if Mr. insists on being embarrassed, then what's the matter?" Huo Guang said indifferently, but he was a little proud in his heart, and said in his heart, "You really took the bait!" ’
