Bad luck at home! ”

Su Zhe sat at home and sighed for a long time, as for the cause of the misfortune, it was most likely caused by that unreliable brother.

Su Zhe and Su Shi are very strange brothers, the elder brother is not like the elder brother, and the younger brother is not like the younger brother. Su Shi has been naughty since he was a child, but Su Zhe is young and old, and since he was a child, Su Zhe has been following his brother Su Shi and helping to clean up the mess for his brother.

If it was Su Zhe's own protégé, Li Kui would forget it.

From Fan Chunren's mouth, I learned that Li Kui, this kid, is still very assertive and has strong ability, and he is still Yizhou Xie Yuan, which can be regarded as a serious reader. But can Li Yun and Gao Yu be included in the door?

Not to mention that he is under the door, he is not even qualified to let him take a look.

However, Su Zhe sighed for a while, and found that it didn't seem quite right, Su Men had a few more disciples who didn't make it, and it shouldn't be the misfortune of the family, and then he muttered: "The master is unlucky!" ”

As for the inheritance teacher of Su Shi and Su Zhe, it's very simple! Ouyang Xiu!

It can be said that Li Kui and Li Yun are extremely lucky, and Sumen can be said to be the most prominent school in the Great Song Dynasty since the founding of the People's Republic of China. For example, Lu Dafang and the like can be traced back to Zhang Zai, who was called the Guanzhong School; For example, Sima Guang, Cheng Hao, and Cheng Yi are classified as the Luochuan School. However, there is a school of thought in the Great Song Dynasty, which is not as good as the Chonggu school of inheritance and Ouyang Xiu, which is greater than that of Ersu.

In other words, after Li Kui and Li Yun stepped into Sumen, they were destined to become the elite disciples who were most envied and envied by the literati of the Great Song Dynasty.

But when the elite disciples went to compete for the martial champion, Su Zhe didn't even have the strength to be angry.

Not to mention meeting, he was afraid that he couldn't help but beat people when he fell.

It was enough to make him feel bad about having a Gao Yu before, and now there is a Li Yun and an uncertain Li Kui. Don't look at Su Shi, who has already written a letter to his younger brother, telling his younger brother that Li Yun doesn't have to worry about it, Li Kui will never participate in martial arts, he has arrangements.

If Fan Chunren said this, Su Zhe would choose to believe it.

But his second brother swore in the letter that there was an arrangement, and he didn't believe it. Not only do you not believe it, but you also get worried. Did the second brother Su Shi's guarantee come true?

I'm afraid that this stone in Su Zhe's heart will not be able to go down for a while, and he actually knows that he has done too much. Compassion is a gentleman's virtue to his juniors, and he has not done it now.

But there is no way, who made Li Yun and the others too angry, Su Zhe decided to follow his own way, deliberately annoyed Li Kui and Li Yun, aroused the fighting spirit of the two brothers, and tried to shine in the provincial examination, at least it is not too much to get a tribute, right?

Besides, after being admitted to the Gongshi, he at least said something.

After all, only the top 600 in the provincial examination have a chance to become a tribute, which is already one foot in the door of Jinshi. Even if he is dethroned, is it difficult for Gongshi to learn too much?

At least, there is no shame in Sumen having two students.

Although he was deliberately annoyed and encouraged, Su Zhe was still not at ease, called the old slave in the family, and instructed him in every way to send someone to inquire about Li Kui and Li Yun's movements in the capital, and not to report it in time.

Besides, Gao Yu, although he said that he didn't care about his face, he was also smiling brightly.

But there is a rare mixture of worry and helplessness between the eyebrows.

However, at this time, Gao Yu was on the rise, shouting that he wanted to take Li Kui to see the largest and most luxurious restaurant in the capital, Fengle Building. Speaking of Fengle Building, I have to say that Bailu Building, that is, the first restaurant in Tokyo mentioned in many later notes and operas, Fan Building.

There is also a name for Feihong Tower.

There are a lot of names anyway.

However, Feng Lok Lou has changed hands many times, and each time it always changes its name.

Nowadays, the proprietor of Fengle Building is very mysterious, and it is almost impossible to find out the proprietor's share. But this does not affect the transcendent status of Feng Le Lou in the eyes of Tokyo gourmets.

Wine and food alone don't make a first-class restaurant.

The restaurant of the Great Song Dynasty, the restaurant that dares to name the building, must be Fengyue when you enter the door. This is not to say that the smoke and miasma of the restaurant, but when drinking, there is no Ying Ying hand, and the dancer with a waist like a willow dances with a neon dress and feather clothes, how to indulge? There is no singer with a voice as crisp as a silver bead falling on a plate, singing the sorrow of the ages, how to drink? There is no geisha with a bewitching posture and a sweet smile to persuade drinking...... What's the point of going to such an extravagant place to drink?

Fengle Lou is the best of the Great Song Restaurants, and even left a strong mark in history.

The annual competition for the Tokyo Oiran in Shangyuan is also held in this building.

There are also similar restaurants, such as Cao Building, Eight Immortal Building, Changqing Building, and Ban Building.

But for Tokyoites, no restaurant can compare to the status of Fan Lou in the hearts of Tokyo, that is, Fengle Building.

Gao Yu slapped his chest and swore to Li Kui and Li Yun: "Don't worry, my brother has brought money." ”

The expenses of Fengle Building can also be won by three people. Of course, it is not realistic to invite the top dancers and singers of the building, but Gao Yu guarantees that they are all first-class goods.

In fact, Gao Yu has never been to Fengle Building, and his impression of this restaurant also comes from hearsay in the market.

Forget it, since Gao Yu has repeatedly insisted, Li Kui will follow!

Walking on the streets of Bianliang, Tokyo, Li Kui is actually very uncomfortable, and so is Li Yun. Unlike Li Yun, Li Kui has seen what a super city is, and cities with a population of tens of millions abound in later generations. Cities with a population of one million and third-tier cities may not be ranked on the list.

But even if Li Kui is well-informed, he can't adapt to the big city where millions of people live in bungalows.

More than a million people live in bungalows in Tokyo.

It doesn't matter if you live in a bungalow, everyone lives in a bungalow, and the emperor's family also lives in a bungalow. The bungalow of the emperor's family is just the high point of the foundation. It won't be outrageous.

In the inheritance of Huaxia, the number nine is enjoyed by the gods of heaven and earth, and people are not worthy. The emperor can enjoy the number seven, but he only has one chance in his life, that is, when he dies, after he dies, he will be on the seventh floor of the mound.

The honor of ninety-five, five is the number in the middle, indicating the throne.

In the court, the most majestic is only a five-story pedestal, which is the truth, if it is exceeded, people will not be blessed, and they will be punished by God.

Of course, this is feudal superstition, which is not desirable and not credible.

The reason why Li Kui is not comfortable is not because the house is too low, but because there are no street signs on the street and there are no references around. It's all bungalows, how do you refer to them? As far as the eye can see, they are all similar buildings, and it is easy to get confused.

However, there are still some landmark buildings in Tokyo City, such as the Suzaku Gate and the Treasure Temple Fukusheng Tower, the former is the main gate of the inner city, which is the façade of the Great Song Dynasty, and it is necessary to build higher. The latter is the Kaifeng Tower. But these landmarks can't be seen until you're standing on the rooftop, and you can't see them when you're on the street. As a result, Li Kui often had the illusion that the city of Tokyo was like her hometown of Mengshan Town, only expanded thousands of times. Then it's extremely easy to get lost in the city.

This feeling has not been encountered in big cities like Yingzhou, Yangzhou, or even Qizhou.

A city with a population of 100,000 couldn't be difficult for Li Kui, but he didn't expect the million-dollar city of Tokyo to embarrass him.

The feeling that Tokyo Bianliang City gave him was: a population of one million, overwhelming, boundless.

The main reason why the Hirokuro Building is famous is that it is one of the few three-story buildings in Tokyo, and it is not a single building, but a group of five buildings, and there is a rope bridge on the third floor, which can be passed. Standing on the third floor, you can almost overlook most of Tokyo City, which is the most important reason why Fengle Building is famous.

As for other houses, they also built three or four floors...... It's not impossible to build a twenty or thirty-meter high, but in fact, the craftsmanship is not difficult to beat the craftsmen of the Great Song Dynasty.

But don't forget, this is the city of Tokyo, and the emperor also lives in the city. Whose house is built higher than the emperor's size, not to mention trespassing.

Even the Imperial City Division couldn't agree.

What if someone with ulterior motives built such a building and monitored the emperor's every move from upstairs every day?

After turning around, Li Kui finally saw the long-famous Fengle Building.

Five three-storey wooden buildings, carved beams and painted buildings, painted as new, give people a kind of glittering magnificence in the sun. It is said that when the Fan Tower was built, the main family referred to the Lutai built by the King of Shang, but Lutai was connected by six high-rise buildings, and the emperor did not dare to repair it at all. In fact, ordinary emperors don't dare to build buildings like Lutai, and they can't have them unless they are faint monarchs.

Like Lutai Xiu, he definitely didn't dare. The master took advantage of it and built it halfway. After the change of ownership, two more buildings were recently added. It can be said that Fengle Building has been repaired to the end, and if it is repaired further, there will be a catastrophe of killing the head.

Gao Yu squeezed his eyebrows and said: "I will enter the building later, there are two hundred steps of the corridor, now it is still early, and I don't know if the singers are up, it is said that when the lanterns are first on, these two hundred steps under the corridor, the crowd is full of flowers, and the corridor is full, so it is not troublesome." As long as the brother takes a fancy to it, even if he picks it, it will be counted on the brother's. ”

Gao Yu is not a stingy person, it is difficult to come out to play, so he naturally wants to take advantage of the excitement and return happy.

Standing in front of Fengle Building, Gao Yu was full of spirits, threw off his clothes left and right, put his hands behind his back, and walked into the building.

Before he entered the door, he was stopped by the guy.

The guy glanced at the ordinary-dressed Gao Yu and snorted coldly, "Is there an invitation?" ”

Invitation?

Do you still need an invitation to eat at a restaurant?

Gao Yu has lived in Tokyo for more than ten years, and has never heard such a ridiculous thing. Pointing at the guy, he said angrily: "Fengle Lou has been open in the capital for so many years, and I have never heard of the truth that you need an invitation for dinner?" If you don't give me an explanation now, you will have to break through whatever you say. ”

"How daring, my prince is inviting guests, don't invite you to eat and drink for nothing?" The guy is not a guy at all, he turned out to be a slave of the palace, and he speaks with surprisingly nostrils and is very arrogant.

"Lord, which lord?"

"What, you look unconvinced? Want to inquire about it and change your revenge? The servant Yang's strange tone made Gao Yu almost angry, but he didn't give Gao Yu a chance to speak at all: "How can my prince be afraid of you and other little people taking revenge?" Mention your dog head and listen, my prince is the king of Yongyang County. Within three days, this Fengle Building has been wrapped up by my prince, and you are so poor and sour that you deserve to come here for pastime, get out! ”

"Bad luck!"

Gao Yu finally seized the opportunity to be the host, but was ruined by the evil slave who came out of nowhere.

It's just that even if he has the share of a lifter, he can't break the tiger power of the prince's family with thin arms and legs.

It's just that he can't save face, so he said that he would invite Li Kui and Li Yun to go to the best restaurant in the capital. Now the best restaurant has been chartered, and Gao Yu is also a face-saving person!

His face was pale, and he couldn't get off the stage.

If it was in the wilderness, Li Kui didn't care about the prince's share at all.

But in the capital, there are 100,000 troops stationed in the city, and if you really collide with the prince, I'm afraid it's really a bit troublesome.

Li Kui said angrily: "Brother can change the family, and if you drink, you have to Fengle Building." ”

"But this one is the best." Gao Yu hesitated, he just didn't look good on his face and lost face. Let him go to the palace, he doesn't have the guts.

However, Li Kui was a little curious, the king of Yongyang County was the king of that family, and he seemed to be very angry.

casually asked: "Brother, is this Yongyang County King the royal family?" ”

"The royal family is a relative."

Gao Yu looked disdainful, and seemed to despise the prince of this Yongyang County King very much. Of course, it doesn't take much reason to hate someone.

"A relative can also be crowned a king?" Li Kui was surprised, isn't this the possibility that the Liu family also has the possibility of being crowned king?

Gao Yu explained: "If you want to say that the county kings in the capital are all relatives of Zhao and Song, but there are only a few that are a little special. The Cao family was crowned king and was a meritorious man, and that was because his sister became the queen. The king of Yongyang County who is now talking about is the brother of the current Queen Mother, and there is a younger brother who is named the king of Yongjia County. This Xiang family is also powerful enough, a double king, and those who don't know still think ...... Thanks to the grandfather of the prime minister, it's not his own ability? ”

"Senior brother is cautious."

Gao Yu was angry, and his speech was a little open-mouthed. But then, he got up again: "Since Fengle Building can't be built, then going to the class building outside the Song Gate is also a first-class place." Speaking of this, Gao Yu seemed to remember a memory that made him reminisce for a long time, and said slowly: "Speaking of which, I haven't been here yet." But Banlou, a few days ago, I met a bold noble son in Keju Society, and I went to mix it up. I have to say that although the class building is not as famous as Fengle Building, the singers in it are also first-class. ”

Gao Yu is now a scholar, why did he go to the Juju Club again?

Li Kui was puzzled. However, he didn't want to change places, so he grabbed Gao Yu and said: "Brother Gao, don't toss, I think I will choose a restaurant near here, which is close to home." Now that the younger brother and Li Yun have just arrived, they are not very familiar with the capital, and if they are late, they will inevitably be in trouble. ”

"That's right." Li Yun nodded in agreement, he didn't think about going to any class building through half the city at all, mainly because it was too far.

Xin walked into a nearby tavern, and Li Kui took the lead into the store. After all, it is an inner city, and the tavern is not as simple as an ordinary tavern, except for the singer who has to help go out to call, the hall is bright, the seats are spacious, and it is also a good place for drinking and partying.

Upstairs, private seats.

Gao Yu picked up the wine bowl and drank it dry, then poured another 10,000 wine, and went down with a bang.

After three bowls, the wine came up, and Gao Yu's nose and cheeks turned red, but the most puzzling thing was that his eyes were also red, and he suddenly howled and cried: "Brother Xian, I dragged you down for my brother." I...... Worthy of a bachelor! ”

After that, I had to drink again. was stopped by Li Kui, and said curiously: "Senior brother, are you making trouble?" Li Kui was puzzled, it seemed that it was normal for Gao Yu not to be treated by Su Zhe.

It seems that Su Zhe has never seen Gao Yu from beginning to end.

But Gao Yu is bitter in his heart! He was brushed down by the literary test when Kaifeng Mansion was released from the exam, and he just participated in the martial arts test. But this news is like having wings, and the news is flying all over the capital, and this has reached Su Zhe's ears. Before, Gao Yu was not treated well by Su Zhe, but he could still enter the door of the Su family.

But now, I can't even get through the door.

Of course, if he gave up the qualification for the provincial examination, Gao Yu should still be able to be forgiven by Su Zhe. But the provincial examination that the Great Song Dynasty will open next year, and those who pass the martial arts can also participate, although he is slim in the Jinshi, but he also wants to try his luck, such a good thing, may be encountered once in a lifetime, missed it, and regretted it in this life. He didn't want this life to pass like this. Perhaps it was this idea that angered Su Zhe.

Gao Yu has asked to see Su many times, and his name has already appeared on the blacklist of Su Mansion.

Of course, it does not mean that Gao Yu must participate in the provincial examination next year, mainly because the imperial examination of the Great Song Dynasty in recent years is the same every year, and there are always changes every year. This year's imperial examination does not test poetry, which makes many candidates a little uneasy. The poems that I have been preparing for three years have been in vain.

And this year's martial arts students can participate in the literary examination, which is also one of the few opportunities in the Great Song Dynasty. In a hundred years, it has only appeared once or twice. The reason for the emergence is that there are too few officials, and the imperial court needs more new scholars as a reserve of officials. A few years may be the year of the outbreak of the imperial examination, and even next year may even open Enke. The reason is too easy, the new party has come to power, and a large number of officials of the old party have to be liquidated.

Officials are purged, and the country can't do without officials, right?

It is only possible to increase the number of new Kejinshi selected to reach the official gap in the Great Song Dynasty officialdom. Everyone knows this, and it is a clear fact.

In fact, Gao Yu didn't want to see Su Zhe, and he also had an indifferent mind. He has never been treated well by Su Zhe!

What's even worse is that Li Kui and Li Yun were affected by Gao Yu and also ate behind closed doors outside Su's mansion. This made the righteous Gao Yu feel a heavy sense of guilt in his heart.

When Li Kui heard this, it turned out to be this matter, and immediately smiled: "Senior brother, is this for this?" ”

"That's it." Gao Yu still had tears on his face, this was the closest opportunity he had to Jinshi, and he didn't want to give up. But not giving up, but embarrassing the bachelor.

Recently, Gao Yu has also been entangled in his heart, whether to give up the provincial test.

Although there is only one chance, in the same way, in his heart, Master Su has only one. Of course, Su Zhe doesn't count. There is only one person recognized by Gao Yu, Su Shi.

Li Kui pointed at Li Yun and smiled at Gao Yu: "I thought that Li Yun was the only person who participated in the literary examination in this provincial examination, but I didn't expect that Brother Gao also passed the understanding test through this method, congratulations!" ”

"The younger brother borrowed the elder brother's wine and toasted the senior brother with a glass."

Gao Yu blinked, looked at Li Yun stupidly for a while, and then burst into laughter, and said something that made Li Yun very uncomfortable to listen to: "I am not alone!" ”

"Who is the same way as you?" Li Yun angrily looked at the black line in his head, and said angrily: "If Wuju meets, you will wait to be beaten all over the ground by me to find teeth, right?" ”

Finding that he was not the only 'scum' in Sumen, the heavy burden in Gao Yu's heart instantly flew out of the clouds, and he had the heart to joke with Li Yun: "Brother Yun, you can't be a unique person!" ”

While speaking, Gao Yu also pointed at Li Yun with the orchid finger that he learned from the geisha in the class building, and Li Yun could only stare at him angrily. Why didn't this guy let his uncle and ancestor give the family law a calculation, and keep it, it would be a scourge.

However, Gao Yu jumped out of the way, and he also felt that it might not be a wise move to participate in martial arts. Said solemnly: "Today...... Forget it today, from tomorrow onwards, I must work hard for my brother to win tribute, and I can't fall into the name of my Sumen. ”

This sound like a good thing, but Li Yun suddenly turned his mind and pointed at Gao Yu and said, "You haven't touched a book for a month since you solved the test?" ”

Gao Yu was exposed to the truth, and twisted: "I don't want to be a brother!" Who knew that Wu Juzi could also participate in the provincial examination of the Ministry of Rites. Besides, being a brother is just a distraction. ”
