Volume 1 Troubled Boys Section 210 The warm wind makes the tourists drunk
After leaving Xuanqing Temple, Luo Bei and Kill Sheng rode red coral all the way and asked as they went, coming towards Lin'an.
There seems to be an insurmountable fate waiting for him there, so even after completing Yue Fei's instructions, he just returned the reply letter to Yue Fei, and in addition to this, there is no destination in life, but he still comes here without hesitation to come to the starry night.
One afternoon, the sun fell, and the sky and earth were red.
Not drier than the north, here is not only more lush, but also a little more humid in the air between the mountains and rivers.
Luobei looked back, only to see the confusion between the mountains and rivers in the distance, and the official road at dusk was full of people coming and going, which was completely different from the lonely and bleak scene in the war in the north.
Not far from where they had stopped was a tall tower, standing silently in the setting sun.
On the stone wall directly above the city gate, there are three big characters engraved "Lin'an City", and the afterglow of the setting sun is sprinkled on it, which seems to also inlay a layer of gold edge for this city.
Two groups of soldiers are changing the guard in front of the city gate, and in another hour, the gate of Lin'an City will be closed, although it is far from the battlefield ahead, but the bustling city still enforces a curfew order.
It is said that this is related to the experience of Emperor Gaozong, when Kaifeng fell, the Jin soldiers entered the city, only Zhao Gou, who was still the Nine Emperors, secretly escaped from Kaifeng, and then fled all the way south under the maintenance of some courtiers.
Behind him was the pursuit of hundreds of thousands of golden soldiers, until he crossed the Yangtze River and came to Yingtianfu, he gradually became safe, and since then, a certain nerve of Emperor Gaozong seemed to have been trampled under his feet, and there was a deep feeling of insecurity no matter what.
Of course, these are just folk rumors without evidence, and naturally they are not enough to be believed, ordinary people are not surprised, rich people value the lives of themselves and their families more seriously, and everyone is eager to get more "sense of security", and they naturally do not care about this matter.
It is said that there is heaven and there is Suzhou and Hangzhou, but I don't know what kind of scene will it be in this Lin'an city?
Luo Bei held the red coral and stood side by side with the killing, looking at the tall city tower in front of him, he also had an irrepressible sense of excitement in his heart.
Although they were in a hurry day and night along the way, the scenery in the south of the Yangtze River was pleasant, which made the two of them who came from the war-torn place seem to have forgotten those ruined and withered scenes for a while, so Luo Bei was also very happy in his heart, but he didn't know if "Uncle Yue" and they had come here smoothly.
At sunset, a young man and a little monk, leading a jujube red horse, stood in front of the thousand-year-old city.
Red Coral was also extremely excited for some reason, looking at the city not far away and hissing, as if there was a person standing in front of the city gate that he had been waiting for a long time.
This made the pedestrians who walked by around them couldn't help but look back, and the gaze in their eyes was extremely surprised, because in their opinion, these two people were not very old, and the clothes on their bodies were not exaggerated, but they were holding an incomparably handsome horse, which looked extremely incompatible.
Luo Bei also knows that there is a word called "Huaibi Qi Sin", which is probably to describe them and the current situation of killing.
He stretched out his hand and patted the red coral, rubbing the soft mane on its neck, knowing that it was probably a little homesick, and its home was in this city, thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of the young Qin Xi, I don't know if he is doing well now? If we can still see each other, will he still remember himself?
"I know you're homesick, and I'm going to miss him, but I'm in this city
It's the first time I've been here, so wait for me to go into the city to see how it's going, and it's so eye-catching to bring a big guy like you into the city......"
Red Coral kicked the horse's hooves, staring at Luobei with big eyes, and actually showed a row of teeth, which looked quite funny.
Seeing the appearance of this person and a horse, Kill couldn't help but clap his hands and laugh.
Luo Bei deliberately made a straight face, it was obvious that it understood, and Meiyu, who was "guilty", was talking about it.
But Red Coral apparently did not refuse him, and after arching his head into his arms to show reluctance, he had no intention of going into the city with him again.
After pacifying the red coral, Luo Bei and Kill slowly followed the shuttling crowd into the city that had stood for thousands of years, but they didn't know what the paradise on earth would look like?
......
Luo Bei and Kill entered the city before the city gate was closed, and within the city gate was a straight avenue, and the houses on both sides were scattered, most of them were white paint and green tiles.
The doors and windows are pasted with all kinds of couplets, although the New Year's paintings have been yellowed, but they are still intact, most of the people in threes and threes have finished dinner at this time, standing in front of the door, you are talking and laughing, talking about Jiangnan Nong's dialect, soft and sweet.
Even when it's dusk, there is an endless stream of people on the streets and alleys, and life looks peaceful and leisurely.
There are also business sales and stalls in front of the street, although I didn't hear people shouting, but the aroma lingered, making pedestrians drunk in the warm breeze, especially people like Luo Bei and Kill who had just entered Lin'an and had already seen the dazzled people.
If Luo Bei hadn't pulled him in time, I'm afraid he would have stopped in front of a snack stall when he first entered the city.
The two of them aimlessly shuttled with the crowd in Lin'an City, passing through the long street opposite the entrance of the city gate, at this time the sky had gradually darkened, but the city did not become deserted because of the darkness, but became more lively.
Thousands of lights and candles are hung high, making this thousand-year-old city more popular, and Luobei has a feeling that at night, there seem to be more people on this long street than when the two of them first entered the city.
Looking through the crowd, there is a wide river in front of you, and you can faintly hear the sound of the oars swinging in the water, and the lights on both sides of the river shine in the river, and the water surface is sparkling, which adds a bit of beauty to this ancient city.
Not far away, there is a stone arch bridge, connecting both sides of the long river, there is a four-storey building on the opposite bank of the stone arch bridge, the eaves and tiles are all exquisite, the lights are brilliant inside, the voices of people are boiling, it looks so lively.
At this time, many people were rushing there, almost blocking the water around the stone arch bridge.
Luobei looked up and saw a bright wine flag hanging in front of the building, which said "Tianxiang Building", and there were countless warblers and swallows in addition to the fragrance of wine and meat, which made people feel a sigh in their hearts.
The young man just listened carefully a few times, and before he knew it, his face was red, until it was under his neck, and he didn't dare to look up at the slender bodies of those flowers.
On the contrary, he killed, he didn't care about those at all, and his temperament of loving to join in the excitement was released, so he pulled Luobei to squeeze in a crowded place.
When they were about to reach the stone arch bridge, the two of them could not squeeze any longer, and when they looked into the water, there was an extremely beautiful flower boat standing on the wide river, which was two stories high, and was surrounded by pink and red flowers, and the fragrance was pleasant.
Luo Bei and Kill Sheng just came from a small place, how could they have seen such a scene, and they were completely attracted for a while
Light.
At this moment, there were two maids with lanterns standing in front of the boat, and when they saw the heads of the people towering on the shore, the expressions on their faces did not seem extremely calm, as if they had already seen such a scene.
The people on the shore pointed to the flower boat, cheering for a while, and showing an envious expression for a while.
After all, the two of them are still young, and they have never seen any big scenes, so they naturally don't know that this flower boat is the thing of the "Tianxiang Building" on the other side, and what they don't know is that this Tianxiang Building is a famous drunken dream and death place in Lin'an City.
But for those who have a little knowledge, this Tianxiang Building can be described as a big name.
Speaking of the largest green building in Lin'an City, "Tianxiang Building", we have to mention a woman, who is Li Shishi, a famous prostitute who moved the world during the Huizong period.
Li Shishi was originally a young lady of the official eunuch's family, but because of the crime at home, she was also implicated, and was sentenced to Tianxianglou on the bank of the Qinhuai River to be a prostitute * girl, Li Shishi was proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting since he was a child, and he was famous all over the world for a while, and he was an Oiran on the Qinhuai River for several years, until Gao Yu and Wang Hao around Song Huizong found the famous Li Shishi in Tianxianglou in order to satisfy Huizong's fetish, and brought her into the capital, so that there were all kinds of fragrant secrets of the famous prostitute Li Shishi and Song Huizong.
Later, Song Huizong was taken captive, and Master Li disappeared without a trace.
Later, Gaozong Zhao moved the capital to Lin'an Mansion, and the prosperity here was naturally more prosperous, so the Tianxiang Building, which was originally opened in Yingtianfu, also moved here, which drove countless big businessmen for a time.
Now Master Li has long been gone, but there has never been a lack of gorgeous beauties in this Tianxiang Building, and today is the annual Oiran night of Tianxiang Building, so many people have traveled thousands of miles to come here, just to see the posture of the leader and listen to the sound of the fairy piano.
Looking up, the stone arch bridge was covered with many thin ropes, which were finally attached to the high railings on both sides, and the ropes were intertwined to weave a net of many squares, and at each node hung a lantern, the lantern was colorful, and there were different colored flowers painted on it, which was so moving from a distance.
The noisy flow of people, the long streets, and the surging crowd are people from all walks of life or different regions, including scholars in long robes, dignitaries in gorgeous brocade robes, and dashing rich sons and beautiful young women.
Coming all the way from the north, Luobei has never seen such a scene, compared with the depression in those places, thinking of all the things on the battlefield, the excitement in front of him seems a little abrupt, as for why, he himself can't tell the reason.
He originally wanted to stand outside the crowd, but when he turned around, there was no shadow of killing, and when he was searching, he found that killing had unconsciously blended into the crowd, and he smiled helplessly, so he could only hurry up and follow.
There are too many people here, so there is no usual exquisiteness, he squeezed me, I pushed you, and finally was pushed onto the bridge in the flow of people, under the colorful colored lights, the moment I looked up, there was a sense of changing my life.
Suddenly, the people on and under the bridge let out a cheer in unison, and then they all turned their heads to look at the water below the bridge.
For a time, many ships rushed to the water, all anchored around the tallest and most beautiful ship.
There is nothing strange about the night berthing of the building boats, but these building boats seem to have been agreed, and they stop when they drive to the designated position, and finally spread out the boat board around the flower boat, and actually create a flat land dozens of meters wide in the river.
