Chapter 223: The Chorus of the Qin and the Flute
Lu Mingfei asked puzzledly: "According to what you say, in the huge back hall, every night the officials of the DPRK and China are here to look for flowers and willows, drink and have fun, and the imperial court doesn't care?"
Wei Fatzi snorted lightly and said: "What's so good about this, these officials go around the Qinglou to drink and have fun, even if they want to manage it, they can't manage it, if they let the officials make friends in the private mansion, it is better to gather here, at least there will be no big chaos, in addition, I also heard that Danqiongju has the secret support of the palace behind it, otherwise why would those ministers choose this place?"
Hearing him say this, Lu Mingfei also felt that there was some truth, although it was a Qinglou, but more officials came here to cling to the relationship, and there were few people who really came to look for flowers and ask willows.
At the same time, he also had some interest in Danqiongju, and even doubted whether the compass guidance was made by a magnet or providence.
Under the orders of Wei Fatzi, the subordinates quickly arranged a table of sumptuous wine and food, and Lu Mingfei and Jia Yuanshu were not polite, picked up the dishes and chopsticks and ate and drank.
The two of them didn't do it deliberately, the appearance of eating was not elegant, Wei Fatzi didn't care at all, looking at the two of them looking embarrassed and just grinning, such a move made Lu Mingfei have a good impression of the fat man.
After eating and drinking, Lu Mingfei remembered that he was down to business, so he asked: "Brother Wei, I heard that the eldest prince is going to accept the imperial concubine recently, I don't know if you know about this matter?"
Hearing him mention the eldest prince, Wei Fatzi was slightly stunned, and then said perfunctorily: "It should be, I have also heard people talk about it, it is said that the imperial concubine is very good-looking, and I have never seen it, so I think it should not be as good as the girl from Wanxi here." ”
Wei Fatzi pulled the topic back to the Qinglou in two sentences, and Lu Mingfei scolded secretly, I am afraid that ten Wanxi girls are not as good as Yu Yingxue.
Just as he was about to continue to ask, he saw a graceful woman walking in the hall at some point, she should be a little older, but the woman is very well maintained, and if you don't look carefully, she looks like a young girl.
Because of her appearance, there was a commotion in the hall, and many sons stood up one after another and asked, "Mother Hui, I wonder when Miss Wanxi will be free?" ”
Only then did Lu Mingfei understand that the beautiful woman with a bit of nobility was actually the old bustard here, which was much stronger than the bustard girl in the Yueyue Tower.
"If Miss Wanxi is not available, Miss Minling can do it too. ”
"Mother Hui, how about letting us into the backroom for a drink today?"
The coaxing became louder and louder, one after another, and suddenly the whole hall was in chaos.
The old bustard named Hui's mother smiled slightly, lowered her voice a lot, and then said: "There are not many places in the back hall, please forgive me, the girl from Wanxi just has leisure today, but whether you can meet or not, it's not up to me to decide." ”
The old bustard only said that there were not many places, and immediately someone understood the meaning of his words, in a large table in front of him
Standing up, a gentleman said: "This son will pay 5,000 taels, and ask Hui's mother to help pass it on to the girl in Wanxi, and the benefits of Hui's mother are indispensable after the matter is completed." ”
"I'll give you eight thousand taels. ”
"I'll give 10,000 taels!"
The rest of the tables immediately clashed, turning the Qinglou into an auction hall in an instant.
After a round of competition, it was still the earliest gentleman who had the highest bid, which had reached 14,000 taels, and seeing that he had suppressed other voices, Wei Fatzi here couldn't sit still, and suddenly shouted: "I'll pay 50,000 taels!"
After a sound, the entire hall was silent, and Lu Mingfei looked at the fat man in front of him dumbfounded, speechless.
I didn't expect that Wei Fatzi was not amazing, but he was the master who could spend a lot of money for Hongyan.
Before selling the robe to the fat man for 1,000 taels, Lu Mingfei thought that he had taken a big advantage, but compared with what he was looking for, Lu Mingfei felt that he had suffered a lot of losses.
After the silence, the gentleman in front of him suddenly walked over to this side angrily, looked at Wei Fatzi, and then looked at Lu Mingfei and Jia Yuanzhuo.
"Where did the fat man come from? Can't get along with this son? Do you know who I am!"
Faced with the other party's threatening questioning, Wei Fatzi shrank his head and didn't even refute it.
Seeing that Wei Fat Man was obviously soft, the gentleman's face was a little more proud, but he didn't continue to embarrass Wei Fat Man, and snorted lightly and said, "Next time I go out, my eyes will be bright!"
Since the other party didn't accept the offer, he couldn't embarrass a few people anymore, so he staggered back after speaking.
Seeing that the other party was walking away, Wei Fatzi secretly took a sip and whispered: "This kid is the son of Si Yuan's squire, and his old son has no real power in the court, no different from a pug, I didn't expect him to be so arrogant." ”
Immediately afterwards, Wei Fatzi pointed to the other three tables and whispered.
Originally, it was not necessary, it seemed to be to get some face back before.
Only then did Lu Mingfei know that most of the gentlemen on the table were the sons of officials in the DPRK and China, and there were no important figures.
Seeing that Wei Fatzi told the identities of these people like a few treasures, Lu Mingfei became more and more curious about the identity of Wei Fatzi, and wanted to ask about it from the side, when he suddenly heard a faint piano sound ringing in his ears.
Looking up, I saw a dignified and delicate woman sitting on the front desk, placing a guqin in front of her, ten fingers caressing it, and the melodious sound of the piano came to melore, like a breeze, like flowing water.
Mother Hui said with a smile before coming to everyone: "The owner said that Danqiong is not short of gold and silver treasures in the middle, but it is a rare literati, or the previous rule, the girl of Huan'er stroked the piano, if any son can match and complement each other with Xiao Sheng, please enter the back hall for a while, and do not accept a penny." ”
There was another commotion in the hall, but Lu Mingfei was at a loss, really unclear
Why is there such a strange rule in the White Green Building?
Such a rule should not be in place on the first day, and sure enough, there are already musicians in the rest of the tables who are eager to try it.
The sound of the piano sounded again, and the chaotic hall fell silent again.
The sound of the piano is smooth but with some weird and psychedelic feelings, sometimes mixed with joy, sometimes full of sadness, like a breeze, like a wave, all of a sudden, everyone without exception is fascinated by the sound of the piano.
The melody is obviously different from the ordinary piano sound, the rhythm is clear and chaotic, but it is orderly in the chaos, which makes people's hearts uncontrollable, sometimes joyful, sometimes sad.
In this way, the sound of the piano can no longer be judged by its superiority or inferiority, and it is clearly an extremely special melody that cannot be grasped by common sense.
Several musicians tried to echo the sound of the piano, but the sound of the piano was slow and slow, sometimes high-pitched, sometimes graceful, which made people unable to figure out, and the originally skilled musicians only worked for a moment but the rhythm was disordered one after another, and they could not follow at all.
On this side, Jia Yuanshu slowly closed his eyes, poured a sip of wine into his mouth, savored the sound of the piano, and then said, "Brother Lu, don't you also carry a flute with you, why don't you give it a try?"
Before Lu Mingfei could answer, he saw Wei Fatzi looking at him with a shocked expression.
"You can also give a?"
Lu Mingfei smiled and said, "I'm a flute." ”
"It's almost, almost. ”
Lu Mingfei didn't know anything about music, if he did any rhythm test, he would naturally be powerless, but now such a special request is right in the heart.
The Roseland Flute is not a magic weapon, but it is a strange thing, the person who plays the flute does not need to know the rhythm at all, and can play different music with different moods.
The sound of the harp gradually slowed down, and when it was about to come to an end, a melodious flute suddenly came out of the hall, blending with the sound of the piano, and there was no disobedience and abruptness.
Huan'er's eyes couldn't help but light up, the sound of the piano jumped again, and the subsequent flute sound became much lighter, still complementing each other, completely in tune, without the slightest chaos.
The two of them soon entered a realm of selflessness, and continued to play so naturally, whether the sound of the piano or the flute was improvised, but without any flaws, and in a short time, everyone in the whole hall was unconsciously brought into the illusion by the sound of the flute and the sound of the piano.
The sound of the piano ended, and the sound of the flute stopped abruptly, everyone didn't even know how long the two had been playing together, Hui's mother coughed lightly, so that everyone gathered their minds a little, and then said with a faint smile to Lu Mingfei: "This son is really amazing, there was an agreement before, since the son can echo the sound of the piano with the sound of the flute, then please come to the back hall with me to talk about it." ”
