By the time the group arrived at Qingcheng County, it was already noon. Cen Li stopped the carriage at an inn and woke them up.

The two of them woke up in a daze, and they were marveling that the pavilion was not far from the city. It was only a while before it arrived. was ruthlessly complained by Cen Li. The two of them fell asleep like dead pigs the whole time, and they just lay down and were happy.

And Cen Li had been driving for several hours, and his hand pulling the reins was sore and numb, and his entire shoulder blade was painful. Having said this, Chang Yue didn't have the heart to say that he had to drive the carriage so fast that he turned himself upside down.

Cen Li angrily took the horse away and went to the backyard of the inn to settle down. Then the two of them put their luggage and allowed them to go out into the city. And he first went to the Song Mansion to ask if he needed the help of the Qingzhu Pavilion, and if Master Song had this intention, he would ask them to visit.

"Now it seems that even if Master Song wants us to help, we will not be able to enter the house until tomorrow, so you will go to the street to play, it just so happens that today is the Qingqing Festival, just remember not to cause trouble."

The two of them happily went to the guest room to settle their luggage. I thought about going to the street to see the beautiful scenery of the second day of February in the city.

Before entering the street, Gu Chao was attracted by all kinds of shops and restaurants. More positive than usual, pulling Chang more around to go shopping.

Whether it is a small stall made of wood or a variety of shops on the street, colorful flags are hung. All kinds of food vendors on the street are shouting non-stop. There are those who fry all kinds of hair, pull maltose people, and roll marshmallows from the stove. There are also those who make assorted cut cakes, barbecue meat, and popcorn with a big tin can. The various scents are mixed together, making it difficult not to be hungry.

Gu Chao fell in love with the barbecue seller at a glance, and was eager to buy it, but was stopped by Chang Yue.

"Alas, what's delicious in that little stall, if something goes wrong with it, it will be a loss, I'll take you to a good place."

"Good place? I know that you used to go darts with your brother, and you have more experience here than I do, so I'll trust you for the time being. ”

As soon as he heard Gu Chao agree, Chang Yu immediately pulled Gu Chao to the largest restaurant in Qingcheng County. But finally came to the restaurant through the bustling crowd, but Gu Chao was frightened by the luxury of the restaurant.

At the door of the restaurant, there is a row of young people with flowers on their heads shouting hard, and a bunch of beautiful girls who accompany the guests to drink are waving their handkerchiefs, which are even brighter than the colorful flags of the festival. The shiny hairpin rings sparkle in the sun. A variety of floral and fat powder notes are mixed together.

Gu Chao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly turned his head and hit Chang Yu with a hammer on his shoulder.

"This place doesn't look ordinary, how expensive is it for you to go in and have a meal, are you really when we go out to enjoy the mountains and rivers? Look at this pomp and circumstance, this momentum, this style, this clothes, and this little guy, this beauty, this crisp ........"

"Shut up, Auntie, where your eyes go, see what you don't have."

"You're ......!!"

"Ah, okay, okay, you believe me once, although it's not very cheap, it's not as expensive as you think, not to mention today's holiday, people don't make it lively, how to attract guests?"

Gu Chao was dragged into the restaurant by Chang Yue with a suspicious expression. When I entered, I found that the utensils inside were very elegant, and it was not the kind of extravagant gold store, so I sat down with peace of mind.

"You have experience, you can order it."

Chang Yu clasped his hands into fists and made a writ. He smiled and called out to the little guy

"Man, pepper and salt Babao chicken, asparagus beef, pineapple dumplings and fish maw, rose peach crisp, and a glass of jujube wine per person.

"Hey, you're so skilled."

"Of course"

After speaking, Chang Yu poured a cup of tea and hummed a little song while tasting it. Gu Chao is bored, drinking tea for a while, and playing with hair for a while.

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside the window again, Gu Chao leaned against the window curiously, and looked down from the second floor, there were many people pouring in next door to this restaurant, and no one shouted at the door, but there were more people than this restaurant entered.

Gu Hao turned his head

"Chang Yu, what kind of restaurant is next door, there is no one shouting, but there are still a lot of people going in, I look at it, it seems to be more lively than ours here."

As soon as Chang Yu heard this, an indescribable smile appeared on his face.

"It's not a restaurant next to it, it's a place where all men in the world want to go, and it's a place that wives all over the world hate."

Gu Chao was surprised, "This, this, this kind of place, there are so many people going?" ”

"What's so strange about that?"

"Heal, you...... Have you ever been? ”

"you, don't frame me, I've only seen this kind of place in the book, but I don't dare to go in, and I'm not interested."

"I believe that."

Bai Guchao, who was often more and more angry, glanced at him

"Yo, it's rare that you didn't arrange me, the sun came up in the west today, right?"

Gu Chao poured a cup of tea, blew the end of the tea, and asked while staring at the ups and downs of the tea leaves in the boiling water:

"You say, what kind of man is this present majesty, how he treats his subjects, and what is his merit in the affairs of the state?"

At this time, the dish also came up, and Chang Yu replied while stuffing the dish into his mouth:

"Why did you suddenly remember to ask this?"

"You think, in the past few years, others have entrusted us with more and more errands in the Qingzun Pavilion, and I heard that the border is also very uneven, I came to this street today, although it looks lively, but ah, there are still many potential problems."

"Oh? Tell me about it? ”

"Take this ...... next door This...... Let's talk about this courtyard, if the world is clear, who goes to such a place every day? Is it the imperial examination that they don't look down on? Or are all wives in the world old? ”

"This doesn't mean anything, what if it's because the people's lives are so good, they don't have to worry about food and clothing, and they don't have to worry about the future, so they can rest assured and boldly go to play?"

Gu Chao sighed in disagreement:

"A decent gentleman, whether poor or rich, will not let himself go. A gentleman is not born a gentleman, but also depends on the environment and the acquired morality to be constrained, but if no one cares whether you study or not, and no one cares whether you steal and abduct, that white ..... Prostitution during the day, then who cares. ”

After speaking, he pointed downstairs:

"Do you think that the following people have been crying and telling their mothers that they want to come here since they were born?"

Chang Yu laughed

"You're just talking nonsense."

said and changed his words, "Actually, when Your Majesty first ascended the throne, it was still very good, otherwise, I would have stabbed a big mess a long time ago, but now Your Majesty doesn't know if it's powerless or what, a year is not as good as a year, I don't care much about this, it's just my own feelings." ”

Gu Hao's eyes rolled, first he gave Chang Yu a handful of dishes very attentively, and then looked at Chang Yu expectantly:

"Shall we go for a walk next door?"

Chang Yu's eyes widened, and he almost didn't choke to death.

"You, you, you, you, you."

Screen next door

A handsome boy listened to the conversation between Gu Chao and the two expressionlessly, and when he heard that Gu Chao wanted to go next door, the entourage around the handsome boy couldn't help laughing. The boy took a sip of tea and said to his entourage:

"There's so much to talk about after a meal, what's ridiculous."

The attendant held back a smile, "It's just that I've never heard of a woman going to that kind of place, it's just a freshness." I can't see more women than my son. ”

The boy looked at the past even more gloomily when he heard this, and the entourage held back his laughter even more

"Okay, Childe, I'll shut up, I'll shut up."

For a while, the dishes on both sides were ready, and no one said anything more.
