Chapter 104: Lan Xiang Lou
Lanshui waves to nourish thousands of customers, fragrant clouds to run thousands of doors. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
I don't know which merry boy left this pair, or "Lan Xianglou" is named because of this, in short, it is engraved on both sides of the gate at this moment, and there is a large plaque painted with gold paint on the top -
Xianglan blossoms......
Li Xiaomu stood on the shore and scratched his head, oh no, it seems that it should be "flowers blooming".
"Lan Xiang Lou" is a huge painting boat, the hull of the ship is painted with vermilion lacquer, the edge of the ship is painted with bronzing paint, the hull is wide, the width is more than 30 zhang, the house built on it is really a building, even more majestic than the floor on the shore.
The boat stopped ten zhang away from the shore, and three wide bamboo planks went straight through, the width in the middle and the narrowness on both sides, becoming a direct passage for the three boats.
The **** of "Lanxiang Building" greeted guests on the shore, where hundreds of rich gentry had gathered, and they were noisy and rushed to offer the "bridge ceremony", wanting to occupy a good position in the lobby of the painting boat.
They were so busy that from time to time there was a shout -
"The second son of the Liu family in 'Bangshan City', a gift of ten taels of silver, the left bridge line, welcome distinguished guests!"
"'Bay Water City' Zhao Yuanwai, a gift of five taels of gold, the right bridge is ......"
"The Pang family in the capital...... Twenty taels of gold, the main bridge line ......"
The so-called "bridge ceremony", in fact, is only a "stepping stone" for admission, that is to say, the threshold of today's "flower picking meeting" is quite high, not to mention the pawns of the peddlers, that is, some of the frequent visitors who linger in the willow lane of the smoke street day and night, may not be able to get the silver to enter, can only sigh, and the qualification of "flower appreciation, flower picking" is also left to those who are really rich and wealthy, generous children, and by virtue of the number of "bridge ceremony" to divide the left, right, and middle three, so as to rank...... From this point, it is enough to see the grand momentum of "Fanghui".
Li Xiaomu was crowded in the crowd, not in a hurry, still looking back and forth, left and right.
The flow of people divided into three groups and slowly walked towards the bamboo plank, and gradually, there were fewer people on the shore and more and more on the boat.
Tao Tao had already changed into a man's clothes, deliberately blackened her face, and couldn't tell that it was a woman if she didn't look carefully, she saw that Li Xiaomu was also on the boat, so she hid in the crowd, and Zhong Zichao got on the board side by side, and when she got closer, she couldn't help but tremble in her heart-
This huge painting boat carved fence painting building, red beams and golden horns, jade masonry stone base, light pavilion powder building, so magnificent!
There are also colorful lanterns hanging under the corners of the eaves, reflecting the brightness of the ship, as if it were daytime.
Tao Tao sighed secretly, and when she saw that everyone had entered the main hall, she also walked over......
......
The big head was very worried, sitting at the tea table in the guest room and sighing, he didn't know if he had "betrayed" the "little gourd master", and everyone was doing things behind the "little master", which always made him feel that his behavior was a serious betrayal, too unrighteous, and he would take revenge! The more he thought about it, the more he regretted it, and even his nose was a little sour, but when he was blaming himself and regretting it, the door "creaked" open.
"Who?!" The big head was startled, and when he saw a black shadow rushing in, he quickly pulled out the long sword on the table.
"Shhhh β
"You, you're- ah? little sister, you, why did you become like this?"
Luo Shuer is also dressed in men's clothes, but the clothes are a little big, no matter how she looks at it, she looks like a child stealing the clothes of her elders.
"Don't talk, come with me. Luo Shu'er whispered.
"Where are you going, where are you going?" the big head was a little curious.
"That brothel...... Oh no, what 'Lan Xiang Lou', you can still find it, right?"
"Hmm...... Brother Xiaomu took me to it twice, just on the edge of the 'Huangyuan River'. β
"Okay, take me!"
"Ahh
"Something that doesn't have long legs can't run!" Luo Shu'er said hurriedly, "You are really a little prostitute...... Is your brother serious? He is just scaring people, afraid that we will follow him and disturb his 'good deeds'!"
"This ...... That ......"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Luo Shu'er straightened her face, "We're here to save him......! Hmph, the division commanders will peel off his skin!"
The big head was still a little hesitant, but Luo Shu'er grabbed her arm and walked out, "Senior sister, wait, waitβ"
"What are you doing?"
"Bring more silver, or we won't even be able to get on the boat!"
......
Luo Shuer and the big head were really almost thrown on the shore, when they got there, there were only those "poor sour" guys left on the shore, and the **** had begun to disassemble the bamboo board, fortunately, Luo Shuer had a fast foot, and threw out a gold ingot at the last moment, **** only had gold and silver money in his eyes, how could he care if it was a child or a boy on the boat, after accepting the gold ingots, he didn't bother to shout again, Luo Shuer and the two finally caught up with the last wave of people......
......
As soon as she entered the lobby of the "Lanxiang Building", Luo Shuer's eyes were stunned by the bright lights, which was even bigger than the "Tianhe Hall" of the division, and it was crowded with people, all of them were dressed in brocade clothes and jade clothes, old and young men, all of them were full of excited smiles, and the smile made her feel disgusting, as if she was eating among countless mosquitoes and flies, not to mention opening her mouth, she couldn't breathe.
And where the eyes of the "mosquitoes and flies" gathered, was the elevated red platform opposite, which was full of delicate flowers and herbs, and the extravagance was incomparable. A spiral staircase made of "iron lotus wood" rises to the roof of the third floor, where there is an exquisite attic, and the red tent hangs high, like a pavilion sedan chair.
The crowd is still lined up in three layers, Luo Shuer heard outside that there have been three, six, nine and so on, and it can be seen from their clothes and accessories that the outer layer is just enough to "qualify" the little rich people, and the middle layer is a slightly spacious rich family, and those real wealthy gentry, of course, occupy a position closer to the red platform, maybe according to their ideas, not to mention "near the water and the building first get the moon", just to be able to take a closer look at the famous Beijing master "Oiran", it is worth spending those silver.
But what surprised Luo Shuer was that before those who were "closer", there were some "closer" guys, they were actually sitting, and they were surrounded by family members or guards in front of and behind them, most of them were arrogant and dignified, and their bearings were very high.
Luo Shu'er looked around, but she didn't find Li Xiaomu's shadow, but she was also very glad that Senior Sister Tao and Zhong Zichao didn't know where to hide, and it seemed that their whereabouts were still not revealed.
She has always been worried that with a small head, the little guy will see the scene that should not be touched, but now she is a little relieved, because the first woman to appear on the stage is dressed very decently......
