Chapter 5 Talking about Zhai Xiaocui

The capital of the Great Qian Dynasty has been Beijing for nearly 300 years, as the upper state of the Heavenly Empire, all countries come to the dynasty, and there is a vast territory of the Great Qian, with a population of 40,000, that is, there is a chaos of the King of Qi a few years ago, but the whole capital is still a prosperous and prosperous era full of flowers and flowers.

The canal is smooth, the road is accessible, the money from the north and the south, and the goods of all countries are all here, that is, at night, the carriages on the road, the pedestrians who come and go are always continuous, and the bright lights on the street are glass lampshades, which can be bright all night, only in the windy and rainy weather, the capital will be a little quieter.

Su Yang sat in the carriage, came out of Jin Shilang's house, and drove in the capital at night.

"Childe. ”

Xiao Yizi knew Su Yang's roots, sat in front of the carriage at this time, and said to Su Yang: "You have lived in the house for a long time, you don't go out much, you may not know much about the capital, we are in the hour Yongfang, which is the place where the officials of the Great Qian Dynasty live the most, that is, in this alley, most of the people who live are court officials, and the rest are sent to other places, and their families live here." ”

Su Yang opened the sedan curtain, looked left and right, the vermilion mansion door, the stone carvings in front of the door, and every household was guarded in front of the house, and at first glance, many people who watched the door had a martial arts foundation, the lower plate was stable, and the eyes were sharp.

"Yuanfeng, you hurry up......"

"Xiao Cui, you wait for me. ”

A woman's voice was delicate and bright, calling out to the man behind her, and the man in the back was giggling, not very smart, and following the woman in front, the two of them talked and laughed, and walked towards the front of a mansion.

Yuanfeng, Xiaocui.

Su Yang's gaze followed the two of them and turned into a mansion.

"Which one is this?"

Su Yang asked the housekeeper of Jin Shilang's mansion.

The housekeeper in Jin Shilang's mansion was given the surname Jin, named Shi Yu, when Su Yang went out tonight, he followed behind Su Yang, and around the carriage, there were eight family members, all of whom were good at training the prince, and followed Su Yang to ensure that the prince was foolproof.

When Jin Shiyu heard Su Yang's question, he hurriedly replied and said, "Master Gongzi, this is Yuanfeng, the son of the royal family of Dachang Siqing, and next to him is Yuanfeng's wife Xiaocui. ”

The Jin family and the Wang family are both in the same alley, and they are officials in the same dynasty, so they know the roots.

And so it was......

Su Yang nodded slightly, but he didn't expect that he had just come to the capital and met a well-known fox spirit.

Liao Zhai "Xiao Cui", about the Wang family when he was a teenager to save the fox, the fox repaid the kindness of the Wang family, so he gave his daughter Xiaocui to the Wang family's stupid son Yuanfeng, Xiaocui treated dementia for Yuanfeng, and blocked several disasters for the Wang family, and later got out and left.

Xiaocui is a kind-hearted fox, and there is nothing bad about Wang Yuanfeng's affairs, and then Xiaocui left the Wang family for a while, purely because the Wang family was too harsh on Xiaocui's daughter-in-law, and now there are no comrades from the Women's Federation, Su Yang will naturally not point fingers at other people's family affairs, knowing that Xiaocui is on the side, he is just a neighbor, and he has no intention of interfering in the affairs of the Wang family.

However, when I saw Xiao Cui, I sat down a little more solidly, the ghosts and foxes in this capital have not been swept away by the Taoist priests in Qintianjian.

"Is there a legend about the fox spirit in the capital now?"

Su Yang asked with a smile.

When Jin Shiyu heard Su Yang's words, he immediately replied: " After the Taoist priests of Qin Tianjian in the capital came, the ghost said that it really stopped, just like a few days ago there was a legend, saying that there was a private house in the west of the capital, making fox spirits, and the people of the internal guards went there to check, and found that it was a scholar and a widow who had a private affair, and the widow was afraid that her reputation would be damaged, so she lied about being a fox spirit, and this matter was still a joke in the capital, and the prince of Qi heard about it in the palace, and the widow committed suicide by hanging herself. ”

Pretending to be a fox is also a method, and there are many ghosts and foxes in this world.

Su Yang sat in the carriage, with Xiao Yizi and Jin Shiyu on his side, in this night in the capital, looking left and right, chatting with each other, and understanding the situation of the homestay in the capital.

The capital as a great country, but also the center of the Celestial Empire, the powerful people are all here, the power is concentrated in them, but also distributed under them, Fanbang came here to pay tribute, so that the capital is densely populated, more than Jinling, and the price in this capital, compared to Jinling is also a lot higher, in addition to the perennial officials here, there are some officials who come to the capital, but after a few years, they have to go down, so they can't afford to buy a house in this capital, they can only rent, and there are many such officials。

"Son, there is a scattered flower building in front. ”

While talking and walking here, Su Yang also came to the destination of this trip.

It is said that Su Ming has a good temperament, in addition to reading, most of them are in the flower building, and in this scattered flower building, there is a girl who is his good friend, it is said to be a beautiful Beijing, and tonight, Su Ming wants to entertain in the scattered flower building, and the people invited are all gentlemen in the capital, and the news has spread, so there are many scholars in the capital, and they are often there, and they want to know these gentlemen.

Su Yang stepped out of the carriage, the clothes he was wearing tonight were black robes, with red thread patterns on the cuffs and necklines, a jade pendant hanging around his waist, and a folding fan in his hand.

After nearly three hundred years of the Great Qian Dynasty, many of the earliest rules have been naturally abandoned, such as the clothing system, in addition to the official uniforms, the current clothes are already diversified, Su Yang walked into this flower building, and the girl he saw in his eyes was dressed like this.

"This son, you are very faced, you should be here for the first time. ”

The person who greeted the guests saw Su Yang and asked.

"This is a distant relative of my lord, who came to the capital for scientific research. ”

Jin Shiyu said in front of him: "Prepare a room for our son." As he spoke, Jin Shiyu handed over the silver.

Silver money has been an artifact to open the way since ancient times, with this silver coin in front, the people who greeted the guests were full of smiles, and walked to the third floor with Su Yang, and prepared a room for Su Yang in the west corner of the third floor, and then told Su Yang that in this scattered flower building, those literati and scholars liked the most famous people.

"Childe, now in our scattered flower building, only Yuxiang has not been invited, you are willing to let Yuxiang come here to serve you. ”

There was another person in his twenties in the room, who looked very clever, and looked at Su Yang and said.

"Gong Yuxiang?"

Su Yang asked.

When he came to the Scattered Flower Building, Su Yang knew that there were eight famous artists in the Scattered Flower Building, called Gong Yuxiang, Wang Xiaoqiu, Wu Yuling, Liu Erjie, Lu Suyue, Chaoxia, Wenxin, Yuzhen, all of whom are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs.

"Su Yue, everyone has been decided by Su Gongzi, and the rest of them will also have their own masters tonight......"

The person who came said.

Su Ming's good woman, is Lu Suyue, it is said that she is beautiful, charming, if you play a song, it can make people's souls leap, but there is also a high praise in Beijing, from Su Ming, according to Su Ming, this "Lu Suyue, this woman's posture, all invincible, and in this body, the most outstanding thing is the double hook under the skirt." ”

In other words, Lu Suyue, the woman, is the most fascinating thing about her feet.

"Then let Gong Yuxiang come. ”

Su Yang said, when I came here tonight, the main thing was to meet Su Ming, other than that, Su Yang had nothing to do, let Gong Yuxiang come here, and it was okay to talk casually.

When this person heard that Gong Yuxiang was ordered, he hurriedly retreated, and asked Gong Yuxiang to prepare and go to Su Yang's room.

Su Yang sat upright in this room, it was cold outside at this time, and the doors and windows were naturally closed, and it didn't take long for Su Yang to be in this room, and he heard the sound outside, and then everyone called Gong Yuxiang pushed the door in.

This woman is slender and quiet, her eyebrows are slightly wrinkled, she is wearing palace clothes, and she comes in front of Su Yang, naturally she salutes Su Yang, Su Yang looks at it slightly, and only feels that this woman really has a picturesque appearance, like the moon.

"You may be seated. ”

Su Yang motioned for Gong Yuxiang to sit down, and the two sat opposite each other, Gong Yuxiang took the hairpin and picked the lamp on the table.

"I see the girl's eyebrows frowning slightly, but there is something in her heart?"

Su Yang is on the female color, and his eyes have been opened, so for a beauty like Gong Yuxiang, Su Yang also treats each other usually, and sees that she is just an ordinary friend and comes here to chat.

Gong Yuxiang didn't want Su Yang to enter the room, but when she talked about it, she bit her silver teeth and said: "Recently, there is really a hate in my heart, and I am worried about it, once I think about it, I can't wait to bite off the ear of the person who did it!"

"Oh?"

Su Yang was surprised and asked, "What makes the girl so annoyed?"

Gong Yuxiang saw Su Yang chatting with her, and naturally responded, saying: "Naturally, the book "Red Mansion" was printed from Hangzhou, and the person who wrote it knew the follow-up, but only wrote it eighty times, how can this not make people angry?

β€œ......”

It is indeed hateful that eunuchs are unfinished......

As a party concerned, when Su Yang heard this, not only did he not feel ashamed in his heart, but he was secretly refreshed, and followed the trend and said: "I also read the book of Red Mansions, this person is indeed hateful!"

With this alone, the two quickly found common ground.

"Su Ming Gongzi is here!"

There was a cry outside, Su Yang opened his eyes, and without opening the window, he saw the outside of the room, a young man, jade like a god, at this time he was walking towards the scattered flower building, the dragon and the tiger step, very spirited.

"Master Su, you're here too. ”

A window on the second floor opened, and inside was a stout man, who grinned when he saw Su Ming.

Su Yang knew this person, he had a portrait of this person very early, this person took over as the internal guard after the death of Xingyun in the Young Fox Palace, as the person of the personal guard of the King of Qi, and also the most domineering lord in the capital, Chen Xiaotian!
