Nanjing, the capital of the Yangtze River, is like a brilliant pearl inlaid in the south of the Yangtze River; More than 100 years ago, Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne as emperor here, announced to the world, and established the Ming Dynasty; For a long time, Nanjing was the largest metropolis in the world, and it was extremely prosperous, and words are indescribable.

Although at this time, more than 90 years have passed since the capital was moved to Beijing, the title of Nanjing as the world's largest metropolis has long been replaced by Beijing; However, the magnificent palace of the majestic Zhongshan Yang, the smoke and rain of Qinhuai in the south city, the royal gardens on the shore of Mochou Lake in the west city, the prosperous mansion in the middle city, and the military camp under the Lion Mountain in the north city all show the status and prosperity of the place.

After Song Nan and Li Daniu crossed the river, they entered Nanjing City through the West City Gate. It was getting dark, Song Nan didn't plan to go to the Jinyi Guard Yamen to find someone first, Wang Yong and the others must have already arrived here. I was a little tired all the way, so I walked south with Wang Yong on the brightly lit streets, and found an inn by the Qinhuai River to settle in.

Beauty. Mei took a hot bath, and after eating, Song Nan was going to go back to his room to sleep, but he suddenly heard thunderous applause on the bank of the Qinhuai River in front of the inn, and a large number of fireworks broke out, which was extremely colorful and gorgeous, and many people gathered on the riverbank.

Song Nan was puzzled and asked what happened to the second junior in the store, and the second junior in the store smiled: "The guest officer is from another place?" You don't know what happens to the Oiran selection every April? ”

Song Nan said with a smile: "We are indeed from other places, and we don't know anything about the affairs of your place." ”

The shopkeeper said: "Then you are considered to be lucky, good luck; Today and tomorrow are the days when the twenty Oiran compete for the top three, no, the boat that passed just now is the flower boat of the Yunyan girl, rushing to the white bridge in front to participate in the selection. ”

Li Daniu muttered: "It turned out to be a bitch selection." ”

The shopkeeper immediately turned his face and said, "What did you say, a brute from the north?" The Oiran of Nanjing City are all girls who are one in a million, and they are all women from good families who do not sell their bodies, everyone loves to listen to them sing and dance, but you are a brute and don't think about the benefits; Don't ask the nest again, the nest doesn't want to deal with you. ”

Li Daniu was dumbfounded, he was ridiculed by the shopkeeper, and he didn't have a good seizure, so he sat there in a daze, looking at the back of the shopkeeper walking away. Song Nan laughed, even calling it interesting, the status of the Qinglou woman in this place is quite high, and her popularity is not small, this shopkeeper is probably also one of the fans of this Yunyan girl.

"Let's go and see." Song Nan pulled Li Daniu out of the door.

Li Daniu waved his hand and said, "Master, we are here to do something, but we are not here to be romantic, I am not interested in this." ”

Song Nan said with a smile: "Xiao Ping'er has a skillful husband, I didn't expect you to be a strict wife." ”

Li Daniu blushed and shouted: "Whatever you say, anyway, the Qinglou woman can't touch it." ”

As soon as the words fell, several diners around raised their heads and glared angrily, Song Nan hurriedly pulled Li Daniu out of the inn and complained: "Follow the local customs, can't you be more careful when you speak?" Well, I'm going to go shopping, and if you don't want to go back to sleep. ”

After saying that, Song Nan walked towards the lively crowd on the riverbank, and Li Daniu had no choice but to follow, constantly nagging in his mouth. The two came to the shore under the willow tree, looked into the river, and saw a flower boat more than ten zhang long slowly moving eastward more than 20 steps from the shore; The hull of the ship is hung with red silk ribbons, and the exquisite palace lights are brilliant; At the bow of the boat, several women in thin shirts played music with pipa flutes, and from time to time a small boat rowed close to the side of the flower boat, and the people on the boat threw silver flowers and silk colored cloth on it, and a woman bent down to salute and thank her.

"It turns out that this is Yunyan girl, she is indeed quite handsome." Li Daniu stretched his neck and muttered.

"Cut!"

"What kind of vision does this person have, that's just a mother on the flower boat, and she doesn't understand anything."

When the people around heard this, they were disdainful, and they were three feet away from Li Daniu, disdainful of being in the company of this Tubaozi who didn't know anything.

"If you don't understand, don't speak, lest you show your timidity." Song Nan couldn't help but laugh and said in a low voice.

Li Daniu rolled his eyes and was about to speak, when he heard a commotion in the crowd, and someone shouted: "Come out, come out, Miss Yunyan come out." ”

Song Nan hurriedly turned his head to look at the boat, but saw that on the deck of the second floor of the flower boat, a woman was wearing a light purple long skirt, covered with a cyan cloak, and a pink hood on her head slowly saluted to the shore Wanfu, although dozens of steps away, the lacquered eyes were shining like bright stars, and all the people on the shore seemed to feel that they were looking at themselves.

"Miss Yunyan thank you for your support, you go to the White Bridge with the flower boat to participate in the Oiran selection, right? It's also excellent to have no money to be popular. Mom on deck shouted.

Everyone applauded, and the Yunyan girl waved her hand with a smile on her face and turned around to go back to the boat, when she suddenly heard someone shouting: "Ruyan, as long as you nod and accompany this young master for one night, young master, I will smash 100,000 taels of silver and hold you as an oiran." ”

Everyone frowned, followed the prestige, and saw that on a half-man-high bluestone on the shore, a richly dressed young man stretched his neck and shouted at the flower boat, and the two attendants below supported his calf for him, one on the left and one on the right, so that he would not fall down.

"It's this again, it's a nuisance every time, it's really not a thing."

"That's it, I don't change my dead nature, relying on some forces in my family to show off my might in Nanjing City, I heard that I have been harassing Yunyan girl for a few months, it's shameless."

"It's good to fall headlong, shameful thing."

The crowd whispered, Yunyan on the flower boat frowned slightly, his face was displeased, and he turned into the cabin. The noble son raised his hand and shouted: "Don't go, accompany the master overnight, you don't pretend to be high, you can't escape from my palm." 100,000 taels you still don't want to, do you really think that you can't do it with gold below? ”

This person's words became more and more unbearable, and there was already a curse in the crowd, and the boy was unconscious, and the foul language in his mouth was endless, and people shook their heads when they heard it. The women on the flower boat hurriedly ordered people to speed up the rowing far from the shore, and everyone was so stirred up that they were suddenly not interested.

When the young master saw the flower boat rowing away, he jumped to his feet and scolded, I don't know when he got a small boat, and several people helped him get on the boat and chased after the flower boat, Song Nan frowned and snorted coldly.

Li Daniu said: "Do you want me to give him some punishment?" ”

Song Nan said: "It's okay, go rent a boat, let's go and give him some hardship." ”

Li Daniu agreed, came to the shore, found a small boat to rent, and Song Nan got on the boat, pointed to the direction of the flower boat and ordered the boat boss to catch up, the boat boss didn't know what he meant, but the two of them didn't want to ask more, and rowed the boat with enough strength to chase over.

The flower boat over there had already reached the center of the Qinhuai River, but the young master's boat also chased to the side of the boat, shouting while trying to climb up to the flower boat, the women on the flower boat panicked, on the second deck, the Yunyan girl looked coldly at the gentleman below, and her body trembled slightly.

"Let the master go up, the master has to sleep with this bitch tonight, you don't go along with the master's wishes tonight, the master will smash your building tomorrow, let you all go out as pheasants, who dares not to give me face on the Qinhuai River, but you don't listen." The young master jumped to his feet and scolded.

"Zhou Gongzi, you don't want to be like this, but you are also the son of a big family, wouldn't it be a loss to do this? It's not good to spread Yu Lingzun's reputation. The mother on the deck tried hard to persuade her.

"Get out of the way, old pious woman, and knock out your teeth again. What are you still doing in a daze, asking me to go up? That Zhou Gongzi waved his arms, and the two companions in the boat hurriedly picked up his legs and feet, and stood on the rickety boat, trying to lift him onto the boat.

Song Nan and Li Daniu's boat followed the shadow of the stern of the flower boat, seeing this qi seriously, and when the people on the boat were too busy to take care of it, Li Daniu grabbed the long penny in the boatman's hand

Leaned out, pushed the side of Zhou Gongzi's boat, and heard a sound, the boat was already shaky and unstable, Zhou Gongzi's hand just climbed onto the side of the boat, and was pushed by the penny, and slid out when he landed, and the two companions were crooked, and fell down the river.

Zhou Gongzi grabbed the side of the boat and exclaimed: "Pull me up, save me, I won't swim." ”

Song Nan made a look, Li Daniu lifted the penny and poked at his waist, poof, Zhou Gongzi fell into the river and fluttered, and the two companions hurriedly came to save him, and the toss was in full swing for a while. Song Nan waved his hand, and the boatman used a penny to put a little behind the side of the flower boat, and the small boat left the shadow of the stern and slid out from the other side, taking advantage of the cover of the big boat, and headed towards the opposite shore.

Song Nan stood at the stern of the boat, subconsciously turned his head and glanced at the flower boat, only to see that on the second deck, the girl Yunyan was standing there pretty, and when she saw Song Nan turn around, she bowed down and saluted. It seems that she saw all the qiē just now.

Song Nan unfolded the folding fan in his hand with a brush, shook it in a very chic manner, and endured it without looking back a second time.
