460. A trip to the Qinhuai River

Du did not forget to handle the aftermath for Tang Yan, so he said goodbye to Feng Niang and Murong Wan'er, and went to Nanjing City, after all, he had to go to Liu Sheng's family to make an appointment.

Although the Ming Dynasty has already moved north, Nanjing City, as the accompanying capital, is still the most prosperous place in the south of the Yangtze River.

At this time, on a small fishing boat on the bank of the Qinhuai River in the south of the city, a fisherman was holding a bamboo pole in the city, and a boy was sitting on the bow of the boat.

I just heard this boy reciting it:

The ancient capital has been gone for more than 100 years,

Qin Huai's singing and dancing are still there!

Visitors and students followed,

The chivalrous righteous man is hidden!

If you want to ask who I am,

Du Juro on the banks of the Han River.

After listening to this, the fisherman on the side jokingly asked the person who was holding the poem:

"Childe, who is Du Shilang? Why haven't I heard of it?"

The bard laughs:

"It's just a small role, in fact, I don't know him either!"

After saying that, he laughed out loud, and this person naturally never forgot it.

At this time, a large boat full of flowers approached not far away, and a masked woman on this large boat was playing the harp, and on the bed board was a behaving girl, with her long legs exposed, dancing to the sound of the harp.

Du Buyi was also very bored at this time, and shouted to the two women on the big boat:

"Two girls, what a good Yaxing!"

The woman playing the piano, the sound of the piano suddenly stopped, and shouted to Du Yi:

"Childe, you are also a good Yaxing, and you are actually singing poems alone in this Qinhuai River. ”

Du didn't forget to smile at the woman playing the piano:

"I didn't expect us to be so far away before, chanting a poem, girl, you can still hear it!"

The woman who played the piano also said:

"Of course!"

Then he asked:

"Since Childe knows how to recite poetry, I wonder if he can understand music?"

Du Buyi then performed a light skill and lightly jumped onto the big boat that happened to be close to his fishing boat, which caused the piano girl and the dancer next to him to be startled, but the two of them immediately regained their composure.

After Du did not forget to walk in front of the woman playing the piano, he said:

"Qinqi, calligraphy and painting don't seem to be really difficult for me!"

The woman playing the piano looked at Du Buchu with a serious expression on her face, and snickered:

"Okay, then I want to test this son!"

Du Bu did not forget to raise his hand slightly:

"Girl, before you test me, can you let me know what to call you? I'll just say first, my name is Du Shilang, and I'm from Suzhou!"

The dancing girl next to her stopped, walked in front of Du Buyi, pointed to the woman playing the piano and said:

"This is my sister Youshang, my name is Youyan!"

When Du Yi heard this, he said to the woman playing the piano:

"Yoshang, why does this name sound so sad?"

Youshang's face was a little unhappy at this time:

"You're sad, my name is Youshang, not sad, please don't make a mistake!"

Du did not forget to hear clearly at this time:

"Oh...... I'm sorry, Miss Yoshang, I misheard, I hope you don't get angry!"

Youshang immediately said again:

"Don't you, I'm not as old as you!"

took out a bamboo flute from his sleeve and threw it into Du Forgetful's hand:

"Forget it, don't talk nonsense with you, since Du Gongzi and you have come to my boat, how about I want you to accompany me to play a song?"

Du did not forget to make a gesture of please to Youshang:

"Girl in a leisurely dress, then you can pick a song!"

Youshang thought for a while and said:

"Then how about our most popular "Plum Blossom Three Alleys" on the banks of the Qinhuai River over the years?"

Du did not forget and nodded.

With the opening of a section of Youshang's 'Xishan Night Moon', one lane is called the moon, the second lane pierces the clouds, and the third lane crosses the river, and the sound of the flute that Du Never forgot also came out, and Youyan also danced with him at this time.

The pleasure boats that passed by on the side stopped here to admire, and after a while, almost the surrounding water was already surrounded by water.

However, when the second section was about to make the sound of the iron flute, Du Bu did not forget to use too much force at once, knocking off the bamboo Xiao at once, and the scene was embarrassing at this time.

The onlookers next to him suddenly turned from appreciation to bursts of ridicule, and at this time, Youshang seemed to be a little displeased, and said to Du Yi, who was still stunned:

"Du Gongzi, you're too upset, aren't you?"

Du Bu Bu immediately explained:

"Girl, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to!"

After speaking, he secretly looked at the people around him who were making fun of him, and immediately put Duan Xiao in front of Youshang, turned around a few arrow steps, and disappeared on the bank of the Qinhuai River.

At this time, the people around were almost stunned when they saw Du not forgetting this kind of supernatural light skill.

Youyan was also incredible, walked up to her sister Youshang and asked:

"Sister, that son just now is really a peerless master!"

Youshang smiled slightly at Youyan:

"I don't think this person is an ordinary person, you can send someone to check the details of this person later!"

Youyan nodded:

"I know, sister!"

Who is this Youshang? It is the number one famous trick on the banks of the Qinhuai River, and I heard that she is also the goddaughter of Ma Yong, the most powerful eunuch in Nanjing.

After leaving the Qinhuai River in embarrassment, Du did not forget to enter the city, found a restaurant, and began to drink.

After all, there are still two days before the appointment with the Yanyu family, and Du Buyi also took this opportunity to eat, drink and have fun in Nanjing.

After Du Buyi drank two pots of wine, suddenly a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy dressed a little dirty walked into the restaurant.

"Little beggar, our restaurant is not a place for you to eat, hurry up and let me out!"

When the young man heard the shopkeeper call himself a little beggar, his dissatisfaction was revealed:

"Who is a beggar? Is my dirty clothes considered a beggar? Uncle Ben makes you look down on me......

After speaking, he took out a big ingot of silver from his arms and smashed it on the head of the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper's head was in pain for a while, but when he saw the silver, he immediately smiled again:

"It's a son, I'm sorry...... I'm sorry!"

Then he quickly picked up the silver and happily took the young man to choose a seat.

After the young man looked at it for a while, he suddenly came to sit down opposite Du Buyi, and then asked Du Buyi:

"This son, you shouldn't mind if I'm sitting here, right?"

Although Du Buyi has been holding the wine jug and drinking wine, his eyes naturally did not let go of what happened just now, and after putting down the wine jug, he smiled at the young man:

"Little brother, it's great to have someone to drink with me!"

After speaking, he took a wine bowl, poured a bowl of wine, and handed it to the young man.

After the young man took the wine bowl, he didn't drink it, but asked Du Yiyi:

"My name is Ma Yulin, and I don't know the name of Gongzi Gao?"

Du did not forget to reply:

"My name is Du Shilang!"

Then he continued to drink his own wine.

Ma Yulin said:

"Brother Du, it's not good for you to just drink like this, why don't I help you add some food?"

Du did not forget to smile at Ma Yulin:

"The wine in this Nanjing city is much more beautiful than the food!"

Ma Yulin shook his head:

"Non-yes, non-yes, Brother Du, why don't you try the specialties of our Nanjing City!"

Then he shouted at Xiao Er:

"Give me a bowl of braised goose in oil, tear the flower chicken, steamed Xuanwu, the return of the red bird, the green dragon roots, and the centipede on the tree!"

The shopkeeper replied loudly:

"Okay, this is for Childe!"

Du did not forget to put down the wine jug in his hand, and asked Ma Yulin curiously:

"Why are there Qinglong, Vermilion Bird, and Xuanwu, why is there a lack of White Tiger?"

Ma Yulin smiled:

"Brother Du, you don't know!"

Du did not forget to make a gesture to Ma Yulin:

"Brother Ma, please speak!"

Ma Yulin explained.

Originally, there were also white tiger dishes in Nanjing, but because Zhu Houzhao, the former emperor of Zhengde, liked the white tiger very much, he also raised one.

Every time he went out to play, Zhu Houzhao would take this white tiger to travel, but when he came to Nanjing for the last time to suppress the rebellion of King Ning, this white tiger actually fell ill in Nanjing City, and Emperor Zhengde naturally looked for someone to treat this white tiger.

But after posting the list for several days all day, everyone knew how to treat the white tiger, until one day, a Taoist priest came to unveil the list, saying that he had a way to treat the white tiger, so Zhu Houzhao hurriedly invited this person into the Nanjing Imperial Palace.

But for a few days, this Taoist priest not only did not cure the white tiger's illness, but instead cured the white tiger to death, so Zhu Houzhao was furious and directly ordered someone to escort the Taoist priest to the execution ground and divide the body.

And the Taoist priest finally left a sentence before he died:

"It's not that Ben Dao doesn't want to treat the white tiger to cure the disease, it's really that Ben Dao can't bear to see the people of the world in dire straits, and the emperor, you still have the heart to have fun with a white tiger in the palace. ”

After the death of this Taoist priest, Zhu Houzhao had several nightmares in a row, almost all of which were related to this Taoist priest and the white tiger, so Zhu Houzhao ordered that no one in Nanjing City should mention the word about the white tiger in the future, and he also made a crime against himself.

However, this crime was planned to be issued again after returning to Beijing, but not long after returning to Beijing, Zhu Houxi had already died of illness.

But this matter was leaked by a eunuch who was demoted to Nanjing City at that time, and the people of Nanjing knew about this time, so they warned the local officials with the death of the white tiger, so the white tiger has been included in the same forbidden word as the pig.

After listening to this, Du Yi smiled:

"I see, I said what's going on!"

After a while, Xiao Eryi put the dishes on the table one by one, and Ma Yulin saw that Du did not forget that he was still drinking and did not move his chopsticks, so he said:

"Brother Du, are you afraid of eating these dishes?"

Then he first caught a scorpion from the return of the Suzaku and ate it whole.

Du did not forget to notice these dishes on the table at this time.

The return of the vermilion bird is a bird shape made of steamed scorpions, the green dragon root is a fried green snake, coiled in a plate, and the centipede tree is a plate of stir-fried centipedes, with something in the middle of the bay leaves, and the others are almost indistinguishable from normal dishes.

Du did not forget to clip a centipede first, ate two bites, and sure enough, it tasted delicious, and said:

"Delicious...... It's delicious!"

Ma Yulin also said immediately:

"Brother Du is really guts, I like to make friends like you!"

The two of them drank and talked at the same time.
