Chapter 35 - "Listening to the Rain"

Tonight, Duan Zhixuan didn't come back.

Lying on the bed tossing and turning and unable to fall asleep, "It's better to go out for a walk." I crept up, carefully changed my clothes, and slipped out the back door.

Looking at the street in front of him, he couldn't help but sigh: "Chang'an City at night is more lively than during the day." ”

I walked on the famous flower street of Chang'an Avenue, this brightly lit tavern is all over the street, all kinds, there are still many vendors on the street, but most of them buy food compared to the daytime. Except for the women who solicited customers in Qinglou, there were almost no other women on the street. Fortunately, before I came out, I changed into the men's clothes left over from the last time I returned to Taiyuan from Yingzhou. Fortunately, I have eaten a lot in the past two years, and I have grown a lot, and I still look like a boy with a folding fan.

At this time, a scantily clad woman grabbed my arm: "Yo! This little boy is really handsome, how about coming to us for a drink or two. ”

I looked up at the name of this green building, "Listening to the Rain Building", a poetic name, this green building looks not small, there are three floors high, it should be regarded as one of the best in Chang'an.

I really haven't been to the Qinglou before, and I just happen to want to find a place to drink some wine and put aside all the bad things in my heart. I smiled and raised my hand to gently scratch the woman's chin, "Okay, this beauty is tired of you leading the way." ”

The woman didn't expect me to promise her, but I just looked like a teenager, she was stunned for a moment, and then smiled brightly, "Okay, Childe, please." ”

As soon as I stepped into the door of "Listening to the Rain Building", I heard a voice behind me: "Yo! Isn't this Duan Dagongzi? ”

I froze for a moment, turned my head slightly and looked behind me, it was really Duan Zhixuan, wasn't he in the barracks today? How did you end up here? He won't live as it is written in history... No, it won't! He must have something to do!

But I was still a little skeptical, and asked the woman next to me, "Is this boy a frequent visitor to your building?" ”

"Duan Gongzi? No, only occasionally. Duan Gongzi is a big man, he is Duan Zhixuan, the eldest son of Duan Yanshi, the assassin of Yingzhou, and now he is the governor under King Qin. Although he is not a frequent visitor, he is a rare financier. "The woman's eyes lit up when she talked about him, and it seems that my eldest brother is very popular with women. From all the time I've been with him, I don't think he's a disciple, but I never expected to see him in a place like this. I'll have to ask another day.

Turning my head and thinking, no, I'm like this, if he recognizes it, it's not the end, I put my arm around the woman and quickened my pace and approached the building, I took out a bag of silver coins and handed it to the woman, asking her to find a little more partial, her eyes were shining and she looked at the money bag in her hand, and then asked the little maid to prepare the wine and food, and she led her to sit in a corner, but she just happened to see the stage in the middle.

Sitting down, I found that this ancient Qinglou is not like in the TV series, most of the guests sitting in the hall are watching the performances on stage, drinking and eating with the beauties around them, and they can't see those shameful things. The inside of this green building is really big, much bigger than from the outside, there are many rooms upstairs, and some people who want to do things go upstairs with the beauty in their arms, but the sound insulation effect is really good, and the sound from inside can not be heard at all, so the people downstairs will not be affected.

I watched Duan Zhixuan and a beautiful woman lead me upstairs, but I didn't see any contact between them, it seems that something is really wrong.

Soon the food and wine were on the table, and the woman next to me poured me full of wine, so I looked at her carefully, and she should look good after removing the heavy makeup on her face. She seemed to see that I was not here for fun, but just poured wine and food for me, and sat quietly beside me without asking anything else. This ancient woman really knew how to read people's faces, so I smiled and drank the wine she poured for me.

"That's right, who wants to stay in this place if it's not a last resort." With that, I raised my glass and drank it down.

Fortunately, I crossed over to a young lady who didn't worry about food and clothing, and if I crossed over to... I can't imagine what I'm like right now.

The woman looked at me, was slightly stunned, and said with a smile: "Childe is very right. If it weren't for the turmoil of the times, who would be willing to ruin their own reputation. ”

"Come on! Drink with me. ”

"Yes, Childe."

As she spoke, she and I touched our glasses and drank them down.

At this time, a woman in white walked on the stage, holding a guqin, she walked to the stage and gently put the piano in her arms on the piano table, the green white jade-like fingers stroked the strings, and then the fingers danced on the piano, and a string of refreshing piano sounds flowed from her fingertips, such as the clear stream left on the snow-capped mountain, euphemistic and beautiful! I was a little stunned as to why such a woman who does not eat fireworks in the world would appear here.

"Her name is Lin Yuyan, and she is a prostitute in our building."

"Hmm."

"Don't think about it, Childe, she has already been taken down by Master Li, and she won't pick up guests. She will only come out to play a song when Master Li comes, and it seems that Lord Li is coming today. ”

"Master Li?"

"Li Xiaogong, Master Li, I heard that he is still the cousin of the emperor today."

Li Xiaogong, a famous general of the Tang Dynasty. The great-grandson of Li Hu, one of the Eight Pillars of the Western Wei Dynasty and the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the grandson of Li Wei, the governor of Shuozhou in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the son of Li An, the right leading general of the Sui Dynasty, the cousin of Li Yuan, the ancestor of the Tang Dynasty, and the cousin of Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, ranked second among the twenty-four meritorious heroes of the Lingyan Pavilion.

I smiled, the music on the stage stopped, and a burly man walked up to the stage and grabbed Lin Yuyan on the stage, clamoring to wrap her!

A middle-aged woman who looked like a mother stepped forward to dissuade her.

"Uncle Chen, our Yuyan has been chartered by Master Li, so Uncle Chen, it's good for me to find other girls for you."

"Lao Tzu wants this rain and smoke girl to accompany me today! How dare you stop me again! Lao Tzu demolished your building! ”

"But, Uncle Chen..."

"Get out!"

I got up and walked to the front of the stage, flicked the fan, opened it and put it on my chest and fanned it gently, looking like a handsome boy. I smiled, not to mention that learning this ancient man's method of being handsome is really good!

"This uncle! It's not a small tone! ”

Everyone's eyes were not as big as mine.

"You kid don't meddle! I don't care about you! ”

"Yo, I'm really in charge of this idle matter today!"

"Good boy, toast and don't eat and drink!"

Saying that, Uncle Chen let go of Lin Yuyan's hand and rushed towards me, Lin Yuyan looked at it and shouted: "Be careful son!" ”

I smiled at her, folded the fan, sideways dodged the punch of Uncle Chen, and at the same time raised his knee to his lower abdomen, he immediately bent down in pain, I raised my hand to grab his fingers and bent back, only to hear the sound of "click" a few bones breaking, and Uncle Chen wailed and covered his fingers.

"Stinky boy!"

I didn't give him a chance to fight back at all, I lifted the stool next to him and smashed it into his head, the stool "snapped" and shattered into pieces, I raised my foot and kicked a roundabout kick, and Uncle Chen fell to the ground in a daze, I raised my fist and was about to fight down, then Uncle Chen cried and begged for mercy.

"The hero spares his life, the villain has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, please let the villain go!"

Sure enough, the moves that I learned from Duan Zhixuan were quite effective, but Miss Ben had practiced them. I'm afraid that I can't beat you as a scoundrel, which really insults Duan Zhixuan's prestige! I didn't listen to his pleas for mercy, and this circle still hit him his right eye, and he covered his eyes and fell to the ground in pain! I patted the sawdust on my body, flicked the folding fan, and said coldly: "Get out!" ”

Then Uncle Chen immediately crawled away! A room full of people looked at me, some better, some whispering.

"Who is this man? Haven't seen it. ”

"yes, that's amazing!"

"This Uncle Chen has suffered a lot this time."

I turned around and threw a bag of silver coins to the bustard, and said, "Be the money for your stool." "After that, turn around and leave, yes! Why don't you run away and wait for Duan Zhixuan downstairs to come down and arrest me? Then I'll have to go home and have to take it.

As soon as I walked out of the door, I bumped into two people, one in a green shirt, with a pair of eyes as clear as morning dew, a straight nose, pink lips like rose petals, and fair skin. A black hair with a white ribbon and a snow-white satin. A long tassel of white silk is tied around the waist, and a piece of mutton fat white jade is tied on it, and it is covered with soft smoke and light yarn. The eyebrows are long and the temples are long, the eyes are slender and gentle, the bridge of the nose is straight, and the skin is also fair. Are all men in ancient times so good-looking? I looked at them and they looked at me, and we staggered.

I'm walking down the street, this is the nightlife of men in ancient times, is it really unfair? Think of those princes and nobles who can come out and spend all day drinking and having three wives and four concubines, and women can only stay at home and wait for the man who will come to see them at some point, and at the same time share their husband's love with other women! Poor thing!
