Chapter 23 Visit the Grand View Garden

"The moon is falling and the sky is full of frost, and Jiang Feng is sleeping. Hanshan Temple outside the city of Gusu, the bell rings in the middle of the night to the passenger ship. ”

When Han Linyuan saw Nanhu, the speed of the carriage slowed down: "Zhang Yisun doesn't have many good poems, but this one is really beautiful." When he thought about what he saw at the time, it was no different from the scenery in front of him. ”

Li Bing didn't talk much along the way, after coming out of Chang'an this time, it was like a change of character, there were few giggles and fights along the way, and there was always an indescribable uneasiness in his heart, especially after arriving at Nanhu, this feeling was even more obvious, and he felt that a crisis was lying around him, saying that it was not close, that it was not far, and that the oppressive people were a little uncomfortable.

As soon as the two of them approached the shore, they could hear the cacophony of music and laughter in the cabin.

This South Lake is so large that you can't see the end at a glance. There are eight large boats on the lake, all with single sails, and above deck, there are double-deck boats. However, there was not a single person on the shore and on the deck, which seemed a bit mysterious.

"Ordinary flower boats, even if there are no welcoming fans, there should be some old bustard turtles waiting, which is good, there is no one outside. I don't know if these flower boats are meat or elegant. Han Linyuan muttered, parked the car, and when he got closer, he saw that the sails and hulls of these flower boats were not the same color:

Vermilion, crimson, yellow, blue, chestnut, green, brown, black.

Eight boats and eight colors, connected by a cable suspension bridge, lined up on the shore.

The two made a detour on the shore, but could not find the bridge to board the boat. Fortunately, the deck of this ship was not too high, and Han Linyuan was about to jump on it, when he saw two girls walking out of the red boat led by him. Carrying trays separately, they are not tall and do not seem to be very old.

The little girl was slightly surprised when she saw Li Bing, and exclaimed, "The two sons are going to the island? Come on, you almost missed the hour, otherwise you will come in vain tonight." ”

As she spoke, another little girl had already thrown out a rope ladder, and shouted: "The bridge has just been put away, and the two sons have come up from this rope ladder." The little girl spoke coquettishly, and after speaking, she bowed to the two sons.

Han Linyuan got on the boat, glanced at the two little girls, couldn't help applauding, and said to Li Bing: "It's really a wonderful place, the figure and appearance are not bad, and the training is good." ”

"Childe praises me falsely! The two of us are just maids, and the girl in the shipyard is the real national beauty. The little girl pointed to the iron chain bridge between the boats: "While the suspension bridge has not yet been collected, which boat shop are the two sons going to? The girl is willing to lead the way for the two sons." ”

"Is there anything special about this?" Li Bingxin thought about the big blue sail ship, and asked again, "Can the blue ship go?"

The little girl sneered: "Childe is going to 'Yurui Village', why don't you even know this?"

Another little girl smiled and explained, "The people in charge of these eight boats are the eight owners of our Yurui Village. The strengths of each owner are not quite the same, as for what it is, there is still a short time to leave the ship, and the two sons can go to each ship to have a look first. ”

"But it's about to start the boat, and after the boat is opened, you can't change the shipyard, so the two sons have to come up with an idea quickly. The two little girls sang and harmonized, which made Han Linyuan even more curious.

"Where is this ship going?"

"Naturally, I'm going to Yurui Village. At the beginning of the day, the boat departed and landed on the island. The island is in the center of the 'South Lake', a large and a small one, a total of two, the small island is called 'Qionghua', and the big island is called 'Jasper'. Yurui Village is on Qionghua Island. ”

Han Linyuan seems to have a playful taste: "There is a cloud in the Han Dynasty's "Ten Continents": 'The hall of jasper, the room of Qionghua, and the rule of the Queen Mother of the West. It's a really chic name. ”

"Gongzi Xie praised, the name of this island has been there for a long time, but the three words of this Yurui Village were given by the owner of my family. The little girl looked at Li Bing with a little doubt, and added, "Oh." If the prince wants to see Zhuangzi, he should be cautious when choosing the shipyard. Only one of the eight ships headed for Qionghua Island, and the other seven bound for Jasper Island?"

"Oh?" Li Bing was surprised: "Then if you are not selected today, don't you have to wait for tomorrow?"

"Not tomorrow. The owner of the village will meet customers once every three days, and if he is unlucky, there are people who wait for more than a month. The little girl pointed to the boat shop next to her: "The two sons can take a look at it." We still have an errand to leave. "The two little girls made a blessing ceremony, which is not like a brothel in a green house, but like a beautiful maid for everyone.

"Let's go, let's take a look!" Han Linyuan has seen hundreds of flower boats, but this is the first time he has seen them, and he is suddenly interested.

The two of them are now on the deck of the first of the eight shipyards, with a red hull and sails, which should be the "Zhu Chuanfang" in the mouths of the two maids.

Li Bing and the others did not enter the shipbuilding directly, but just poked in through the crack in the window.

The boat workshop is very wide, dozens of dancers are dancing in groups in the middle of the venue, and the outer circle is full of male guests, and they can't stop cheering.

Looking at the back, the dance is not outstanding, but this main dancer is plump but graceful, and he is also a beauty.

Li Binggang felt that this was not a Central Plains dance, and just wanted to ask Han Linyuan, but happened to meet the "Zhu Fangzhu" turning around.

The two of them only glanced at each other, and suddenly felt that their faces were red and their hearts were beating faster. The owner of the Zhu Fang is actually a "big food dancing girl", blonde hair and blue eyes, although she is wearing two strands of vermilion gauze on her body, but there is no lining, and there are some places that should not be seen, but she is actually displayed to everyone clearly.

This dynasty was influenced by the Hu people, the folk customs were open, and the dress was much more casual than in previous dynasties. Even so, Han Linyuan felt that this was too much. It was a deafening deafening applause from the audience.

Li Bing's face turned crimson, and he subconsciously turned his head over. Han Linyuan couldn't take his eyes off it, and suddenly felt that his nose was hot, so he quickly pinched the tip of his nose, looked up to the sky, and said to Li Bing: "This won't work......! Let's get another one!"

Follow the suspension bridge to the second boat.

There were fewer guests in the cabin, and both the guests and the girls were dressed more elegantly.

In the middle of the shipyard is the twin sister flowers, a piano and a zither, playing and singing: "The cold rain and the river enter Wu at night, and Pingming sends the guest Chushan Lonely." Luoyang relatives and friends asked each other, and a piece of ice was in the jade pot. ”

This quatrain has only been around for twenty or thirty years. The two recomposed the poem, although it is not as elegant as the ancient Han and Jin songs, but it is also less bleak, more varied, and a little bit of the charm of the dynasty.

"What do you think of these two compared to those two in Chang'an?" Han Linyuan listened to the sound of the piano and asked without a beginning or an end.

Li Bing recalled slightly: "It seems to be about the same. ”

They are all twins, and they are also good looking and in shape. However, the ability to compose music and play the piano is too far from 'Snow Chime and Snow Sheng'. Han Linyuan shook his head: "Since we have already seen 'Zhuge Liang', we won't lift the red hijab of 'Zhou Yu'." ”

Xue Qi Xue Sheng is a prostitute in Chang'an's "Chuanqu Pavilion" and a twin. All kinds of musical instruments can be used, especially a chime and a sheng, which are rated as the sound of the world by everyone, and how many sons of families come to the door and listen to a new song in place.

Li Bing is just a rough rhythm, and he thinks that the playing and singing of these two girls in the shipyard are excellent. However, Han Linyuan said that it was far away, it should be really far away, and he couldn't hear it anyway.

The two abandoned the Scarlet Boat Workshop, and then moved forward, the Yellow Boat Workshop.

There are more people in this workshop again, and the people are full of people, which is more lively than the first Zhu Boat Workshop. Looking through the window, what greeted me was not a person, but two huge wine cabinets, neatly placed dozens of jars of wine, each jar was labeled, down to "Shu Millet Mixed Brew", up to "Former Dynasty Court Elixir", Han Linyuan knew the wine, in this cabinet, it is everything.

The wine order, the charades, the fist fight, the workshop is not happy, and finally has a bit of the taste of ordinary Qinglou.

The owner of the middle of the workshop looks acceptable, and he is older than the people in the previous workshops, so it should be said that the charm still exists. She greeted her with a smile, not like the flattery of other Qinglou singers, but also a sense of closeness to her friends. The owner is familiar with the way of doing things, and has rich life experience, and talking to such a person is also a wonderful thing in life. Han Linyuan only now understands that each shipyard has its own characteristics, and it does what it likes. Zhu Fangzhu is a color word. The owner of the scarlet shop is a musical word. The owner of this yellow shop is mainly wine.

I was more curious about what the next Blue Boat Workshop would be, and I didn't feel that I was speeding up the pace under my feet.

Strange to say, this blue boat shop has closed all doors and windows, and it is surprisingly quiet inside.

Li Bing pondered for a moment, and was about to knock on the door. Overheard, there was a fighting sound from a ship behind me. "Bang!" a door was kicked off and fell into the lake.

The movement was so loud that Li Bing and Han Linyuan were both startled, and hurriedly turned around and rushed to the fifth "Chestnut Boat Fang".

A man and a woman flew out of the boat and made three moves in the air.

"Good swordsmanship!" Li Bing exhaled. Before the words fell, the two had stopped on the roof of the shipbuilding, and the woman pressed a sword against the man's chest: "Sun Gongzi, have you lost again?"

A group of spectators followed out of the cabin and looked at the two people on top.

This Sun Gongzi put away the sword and said loudly: "The girl's swordsmanship is wonderful, I admire it!"

The woman smiled and said flatteringly: "It's not enough to just admire!

Sun Gongzi pursed his lips and smiled, and threw the sword with his backhand, which was right on the deck. grabbed his collar with one hand: "Since you lost, you naturally admit punishment." After speaking, he took off his coat and raised it casually, and the white gauze shirt was blown by the lake breeze and flew into the lake.

This is not the end, he actually opened the side of the placket with both hands, opened his arms violently, stood in front of the girl with a red stripe, and said with a lewd smile: "The girl is still satisfied?"

The spectators below were not happy, and one of them shouted: "I said Sun Gongzi, since you have lost, hurry down and don't waste time." It's windy up there, beware of catching a cold again!"

Someone else shouted: "If everyone is like you and they dismantle a few or eighty tricks and finally lose, when will they be able to strip the owner of the fang's clothes! You come down quickly! Let me ask the girl of the owner for a few tricks!"

After speaking, he kicked the hilt of the sword that Sun Gongzi had inserted on the deck just now, stepped on the eaves of the first floor, and stood on the top of the cabin on the second floor with a leap, the sword happened to fly to his side, he took the sword in one hand, hugged his fists and said: "Girl of the owner, I'm here to ask for advice!"

After speaking, he said to Sun Gongzi: "Why are you still standing here!

It turns out that this chestnut boat workshop is actually a place for martial arts competitions, and those who lose have to take off a piece of clothing, this kind of flower boat is the first time I have heard of it! Han Linyuan found it interesting.

Walking further, there is the Qingchuan Fang, Han Linyuan only saw the calligraphy and paintings hanging inside the window, he knew what kind of style this was, and dragged Li Bing away. There are many people who are vassals and elegant, but they do it so deliberately on the flower boat, even Li Bing doesn't think it's interesting.

This ship is obviously not to the taste of Li Bing and the others.

After that, there was the penultimate brown ship, the door was open, and Han Linyuan saw a brown nun's robe from a distance.

"No!" Li Bing and Han Linyuan can be regarded as well-informed in this regard, and it is really the first time that the nun has seen it, could this "brown" refer to the nun's monk's robe?

Getting closer, there were more people who could be seen, not only nuns and Taoist aunts, but also girls dressed in official uniforms of the previous dynasty and dressed in costumes imitating Yang Yuhuan. There are also Xi Shi, Diao Chan, big and small Erqiao, these looks are not bad at all, and even their gestures have the taste of the old dynasty.

It turned out to be just a disguise, and this ship is also considered interesting.

Li Bing looked at the various girls inside, and was trying to find out which one was the owner, when he suddenly heard the sound of a huge leather whip on his back, and thought that there was another fight on the side of the chestnut boat. If you listen carefully, this voice actually came from the last "Black Ship Workshop".

"Ahh

Li Bing and Han Linyuan looked at each other: "Forget it, forget it!

"I can't afford to provoke it, I can't afford to provoke it! It's about to start, let's go to the Blue Boat Workshop!"
