Chapter 029: Cruise Ship (2)
To be crowned as an Oiran must be a talent, and the quality, rhyme, talent, and color are also extraordinary. Thinking of this, Bai Luoshang secretly regretted in her heart, such a talented and beautiful woman in the world fell into a prostitute's family, which was really borrowable and unfortunate.
The boatman smiled, "I haven't seen this, but I think so." ”
Bai Luoshang thought for a while, and then asked, "Which Qinglou is the most famous in Fengzhou City?"
The boatman held the penny while saying unhurriedly: "It depends on what you prefer, if it is poetry and painting, it is Liuxia Pavilion, if it is song and dance, it is Meixiu Courtyard, if it is wine, it is Yusheng Building." ”
These three brothels are also the most famous in Fengzhou, but when it comes to Yusheng Building, Bai Luoshang can't help but think of Manwan, when he thinks of Manwan, he has a burst of amazement in his heart, slowly holds up the wine glass, and says bitterly: "If it is a song and dance wine, it is common in Yanliu Lane, this poetry and painting is rare, are those who go to Liuxia Pavilion are literati and scholars?"
The boat man laughed twice, "I don't know that, but the literati should prefer Liuxia Pavilion." ”
Bai Luoshang shook her fan, "Then who are the Oiran ladies in Fengzhou City?"
The boatman replied with a smile: "The most famous are Ruoshi in Liuxia Pavilion, Yingluo in Meixiu Courtyard, and Flower Shadow in Yusheng Building. The three girls were crowned as 'Fengzhou Sanmei', each with its own outstanding features. If the poetry girl is only a learned person, she is outstanding in conversation, and she is a rare interpretation flower in the world. The Yingluo girl dances exquisitely and sings beautifully, like a Lingbo fairy descending to earth. The 'fragrant drunkenness' brewed by the flower shadow girl has aroused the coveted admiration of many wine lovers. ”
After listening, Bai Luoshang couldn't help but get up.
Although he had never seen these three women, he already knew that they must be rare women in the world.
The boatman smoked a cigarette leisurely, looked at Bai Luo's clothes and was extraordinary, and said: "The poetry competition will be very lively, and I think Gongzi is also an extraordinary person, why not hire a larger painting boat? ”
Bai Luoshang lazily leaned on the table, shook the fan and laughed softly: "I hire a boat alone, I can sit or lie down, isn't it comfortable, why bother to squeeze together with others? ”
This is telling the truth.
Although he likes to be lively, sometimes being clean is also a kind of enjoyment.
The boatman spat out a puff of cigarette and happily continued: "What Childe said is reasonable, there are great benefits, and small ones have small advantages. ”
Bai Luoshang slowly poured a glass of wine, paced to the bow of the boat, held the wine glass in one hand and shook the fan in the other, and asked, "Recently, isn't it because of the murder of Yusheng Lou that martial law?
The boatman smiled: "Martial law is just a show, and if you are an official, you can't get along with silver?"
Bai Luoshang suddenly remembered the county official who was worried about Jun Jinjin, smiled faintly, and said no more.
Outside the boat, the flowing water is murmuring, the scenery is picturesque, and there is a feeling of "going up the mountain on the road, such as swimming in the mirror".
The canopy boat swayed slowly on the river, a leisurely and comfortable time, sunset and moonrise, is also a blink of an eye.
The moon rises, and the shadows of the flowers are far away.
On the water and on the shore, it is becoming more and more lively, laughing and scolding, full of people, and full of lanterns hanging everywhere, illuminating the entire Fengzhou City as if it were day.
The river, which was already filled with boats, has become more crowded.
The boat with them passed sideways in a painting boat that was not worth the luxury, the prince and grandson, the ladies and celebrities, or leaning on the railing and the window, or drinking and singing.
On the deck, there were a few drunken men and a few girls laughing and flirting.
It seems that it was indeed not affected by the murder of Yushenglou at all.
"Uncle, please dock here, I also want to get off the boat and have a look. Bai Luoshang sat for a long time and was a little tired, looking at the empty wine jug and the moonlit and starry sky, he suddenly wanted to go to the shore to have a look.
Wine and beauty in front of him, how can he sit still on the boat.
The ship docked.
Bai Luoshang jumped out of the boat, took out ten taels of silver from his pocket, and handed it to the boatman.
The boatman waved his hand and did not accept it, took off the hat, and smiled faintly: "No need, the lower link inscribed by the little brother is enough to buy the money for a whole day's play." ”
With that, the oars were a little bit, and the wooden boat slid towards the center of the river again.
Bai Luoshang looked at the awning boat in the distance and smiled silently.
Walking on the embankment, looking at the prosperity of the street full of people coming and going, I thought that this trip to Fengzhou was really worth the trip.
So, where do you go next?
Bai Luoshang cranked the folding fan in his hand, unhurried, walking and stopping, while admiring, he was embarrassed.
Yusheng Lou has been there, the wine is good, the beauty is also good, but unfortunately the memories are not very good, just had a murder, there will be some bad luck, so directly eliminated.
I haven't been to the Meixiu Academy, but the beauty of the Meixiu Courtyard has seen one, and the dancing singing makes him forget it once he hears it, even though he has only seen one person, but he has almost appreciated the charm of the Meixiu Academy, which is a good place worth visiting, but today it can be skipped temporarily.
As a result, only Liuxia Pavilion remained.
Since it is a poetry competition, how can you not go to Liuxia Pavilion, which is famous for its poetry and paintings.
Although he is not an elegant person, he is very fond of talented women, and he feels that a true beauty is not only beautiful skin, but also has a transcendent inside.
As soon as he stepped into Liuxia Pavilion, Bai Luoshang had to shake his fan and sigh: "It's really extraordinary." ”
The decoration of the whole building is dignified, and there are many poems and paintings hanging on the four sides.
Other green buildings are all set up with tablecloth wine, but here it is an inkstone to shop the public.
There is less fat powder, more ink, although there is a fragrant wine, but there is no greasy fat powder taste.
A green building, so elegant and noble, let the life that goes in not have the slightest evil thoughts.
Bai Luoshang couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the people who came here came here to chant poetry and paint?
Looking at the men sitting at the desk and meditating, looking at the clothes, they were either hereditary nobles, literati, businessmen and wealthy people, shaking their heads one by one, as if they had encountered something difficult.
What are these people doing?
Bai Luoshang stood at the door, his chin raised slightly, and he shook the money bag, and he didn't need to say anything, someone stepped forward to greet him.
Bai Luoshang, who is used to lingering in Willow Lane of Flower Street, naturally knows that this is a place where money speaks, and to find respect in this kind of place, there must be silver in the money bag, if you want to make yourself have a sense of existence, there must be silver in the money bag, and if you want others to serve you, you must have money in the money bag.
"Yo, Childe, would you like to have a table too? A slightly chubby woman stepped forward, and she had already noticed him as soon as Bai Luoshang entered the door, and a boy with such an extraordinary figure must be another gentleman.
What is a table of ten taels good?
Bai Luoshang thought about it hesitantly, as if the boatman had said that paying ten taels could get a chance to compose a poem on the topic.
Shaking the fan briskly, Bai Luoshang blinked his apricot-shaped eyes, and said with a smile: "I am only a shallow learner, I only drink alcohol, and I can't write poetry, can I sit?"
"Eh, it's all here, Childe might as well be casual, and it won't be in vain for our Ruoshi girl's thoughts. The old bustard took Bai Luoshang's hand, as if grasping a money bag, his eyes lit up, he didn't let go, and said with a smile: "Childe, please come with me." ”
Bai Luoshang followed the woman to an empty table and sat down, the woman pointed to a pair of calligraphy and paintings hanging on the flower stand in the center of the hall, and said: "Today's topic is 'The Light Wind Sends the Moon', Childe, please write something casually, what if we Miss Ruoshi fancy it?"
After paying the silver, Bai Luoshang looked thoughtfully at the simple calligraphy and painting, the faint landscape painting, and inscribed two beautiful sentences on it:
"Yaoguang is shallow, and he walks out of the painting building with the moon shadow on his sleeves. ”
A painting, two lines of poetry, the talent of the girl can be seen.
Bai Luoshang didn't have much interest in painting poetry, so he didn't touch the pen and ink, but poured himself wine from the porcelain pot next to him. It's just that when you pour out a little bit, there is no aroma of wine, and if you pour a little more, there is still no aroma of wine.
Bai Luoshang strangely opened the lid of the pot and sniffed it in, it was tea but not wine.
is a good green building, and it looks like an examination room, which makes Bai Luoshang a little uncomfortable. He was originally a person who didn't drink for a day and felt that he had nothing to love. Vassal elegance, not the style of white clothes, poetry and painting, nor is it his hobby. As long as there is wine, he is very satisfied, since he has come here, how can he not drink?
"Mom!" Bai Luoshang beckoned to the chubby woman, "can you change a glass of wine for me? ”
"Huh?" the old bustard seemed to be embarrassed, "Childe doesn't know, my girl said, today only serve tea." ”
Bai Luoshang secretly wondered, how could there be a Qinglou that only sells tea and not wine.
put a silver ingot on the table, and Bai Luoshang whispered flatteringly: "Mom will allow me to take a sip, if I don't drink, my brain will be confused, and I can't make a sentence." ”
The old bustard took the silver, but he was still a little embarrassed, his eyes glanced at the white money bag, and said with a low smile: "Girl's rules, I can't break them, right?" ”
Bai Luoshang took out another ingot of silver, and said with a smile: "What my mother said is reasonable, if the girl finds out, she will say that Xiaosheng brought it herself, and I hope my mother can be accommodating." ”
With the money under his hand, the old bustard immediately enthusiastically sent a pot of wine to Bai Luoshang.
Therefore, many things can be solved with money, just like Shangguan Moyun said, rich people will always be more convenient than ordinary people.
Thinking of Shangguan Moyun, Bai Luoshang couldn't help but think of Shangguan Rui, and he couldn't help but be sad.
That woman, the shocking dance under the sunset, may be destined to become a regret of white clothes.
Shaking his head, Bai Luoshang's face was full of free and easy smiles.
