Chapter 50: The Orchid Emerges from the Hollow Valley

[PS: Rushed to the first place on the new book list this week, and broke out in ten chapters!]

Zhao Yuan walked slowly in the streets and alleys.

Much of Xujiaqiao is still in ruins, and the mob has left scars on this quaint town.

It may be that this Wanjia action touched the townspeople of Xujiaqiao, and the neighbors were united and helped each other, but they did not see the residents living on the streets.

Yangshan Inn.

Zhao Yuan's body suddenly froze, and unconsciously, he actually walked to the Yangshan Inn.

In my mind, Youlan's beautiful and sad face and the heroic piano sound came to mind.

"Xiao Zhao, you're here, come here, come over and bake the fire, this God, it's really freezing to death. ”

Just when Zhao Yuan was wandering at the door of the Yangshan Inn, the old shopkeeper Uncle Wan saw a person standing at the door, thinking that he was begging for a red envelope, but when he came out to see, it was Zhao Yuan, and hurriedly beckoned Zhao Yuan to enter the inn to roast the fire.

There were more people in the inn, and there were a large circle of small people around the charcoal stove, and there were some guests who stayed in the hotel who were dancing on the mountain, one by one, their eyebrows were flying, and their mouths were spitting foam.

When Uncle Wan introduced Zhao Yuan to everyone, people immediately looked at Zhao Yuan with more awe, which did not make Zhao Yuan proud, but secretly complained, so he could only sit down.

Seeing Zhao Yuan sit down, everyone's conversation immediately turned to the day of the mob attack, trying to get the silent Zhao Yuan to speak.

It's a pity that Zhao Yuan, who listened to people boasting about how brave he was that day, was boring and embarrassed to leave, like sitting on pins and needles.

"Xiao Zhao, go ahead, the old room, there is only one person living there. Seeing that Zhao Yuan was restless, Uncle Wan immediately quietly pulled Zhao Yuan and whispered in his ear.

"Ahem......"

"It's all from the past, young people, the fire is more vigorous, not like our older ones...... Go, go, go!"

Uncle Wan picked up Zhao Yuan and pushed Zhao Yuan up the stairs.

Zhao Yuan smiled bitterly and went upstairs.

301。

Zhao Yuan stood at the door of room 301, not knowing what to do for a while.

"Crunch......" Just as Zhao Yuan was about to leave, the door suddenly opened.

Youlan looked at Zhao Yuan, and Zhao Yuan looked at Youlan, looking at each other. There was a hint of surprise in Youlan's eyes, but Zhao Yuan was a little embarrassed.

"You're here. The stunned Youlan quickly came back to her senses.

"Hmm. ”

"Come in, it's cold outside. ”

"Hmm. ”

Zhao Yuan could only walk into the room and sit by the charcoal stove.

Youlan didn't sit down, but poured tea for Zhao Yuan, and soon, a cup of fragrant tea was served in front of Zhao Yuan.

"This is my collection of Yangshan wild tea, it is very fragrant...... When the bridge caught fire, I didn't think about my belongings, the first thing I thought of was the piano and the paintings, and then the tea leaves. Youlan smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Miss Youlan is a Yaren. Zhao Yuan tasted it lightly and nodded admiringly, although the fragrance of this tea is strong, it is pleasant, the entrance is slightly bitter, but the aftertaste is sweet, it is the top grade of tea, I can't imagine that this poor and remote Qinglou woman actually knows how to taste tea, it is really surprising.

"Look at the demeanor of the son serving tea and drinking tea, it should be a fellow practitioner, but unfortunately, the bridge tower was destroyed by fire, and there is no tea set here, otherwise, drinking tea and enjoying the snow with the son must be a good thing. ”

"Hehe, I'm an ordinary man, I know what kind of tea ceremony I know, and I smiled. ”

Zhao Yuan was shocked in his heart, he had been deliberately hiding, but he inadvertently revealed his feet, fortunately, this woman was just a member of the Qinglou, in case of encountering an enemy, wouldn't it be very dangerous.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yuan secretly alerted himself.

At the same time, Zhao Yuan secretly marveled that the Qinglou woman was really well-informed.

Experienced and knowledgeable......

Zhao Yuan's heart moved.

Experienced and knowledgeable......

Zhao Yuan's heart moved.

Qinglou is not just a place of wind and snow. In any era, Qinglou is a center for intelligence distribution.

The Great Qin Empire was the most powerful country in the Zhanyun Continent, with population, land and grain production greatly exceeding those of the previous dynasties, advanced economic development, and rapid scientific and technological development.

Because the level of poetry and dance art has reached a very high level, the vassal elegance of the Qinglou has also shown a deformed prosperity.

Compared with the ancient primitive sex-trade, the Qinglou of the Great Qin Empire is no longer just a place for men to vent their physiology, the Qinglou has become a social place where literati and artists gather.

Because of the role of the Qinglou, the requirements for the women of the Qinglou have also increased a lot, not only need to be beautiful, but also need to have a good education, be good at poetry, calligraphy and songs, and have excellent talents.

In some famous buildings in the Great Qin Empire, most of them have been cultivated since childhood, and the requirements are extremely strict, in addition to the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, the requirements for cultural level are also extremely high.

In the long history of the Great Qin Empire, there have been countless women who have gone down in history, they not only showed amazing creativity in literature and poetry, but also led the fashion, and even swayed freely on the political stage, with a pair of slender hands, from time to time to reach out to the supreme power that can command the world......

......

It can be seen from Youlan's speech and demeanor that this woman is not a vulgar fan, and befriending her may be able to find out some unknown secrets, at least, you can also know some social trends.

After Zhao Yuan decided, he remained silent, just quietly tasting the faint sweetness of Yangshan wild tea after the bitterness.

Youlan didn't take the initiative to talk to Zhao Yuan, occasionally squatting down and scalding water by the stove with a pot.

The room was unusually quiet, and you could hear a pin drop.

Zhao Yuan looked at the temporary guest room quietly.

The layout of the guest rooms is the same, nothing surprising, and Wanjia Yangshan Inn takes the people-friendly route, the decoration is not luxurious, and the overall look is just refreshing and clean.

Of course, Zhao Yuan didn't look at the structure of the guest room, he looked at the temporary furnishings of Youlan.

Observing a person, you can see his living habits and tastes from some details.

There are basically no superfluous ornaments in the guest room, in addition to the zither, there are several paintings hanging on the wall, one of which is still a little blackened, which should be snatched out of the fire of the bridge tower.

Although several paintings are not treasures, they are also considered to be excellent works, among which the smoked "Flowers and Birds" is particularly outstanding, with a full pen and ink, and strong and sharp. The flowers and birds are meticulously brushed and extremely delicate, and the movements that flutter their wings are filled with the vitality of the natural world. The composition of the landscape is also strange and not old, very creative spirit, the seal carving is unique, the calligraphy is outstanding, and it is for everyone.

It's a pity, it's a pity!

Looking at the smoky "Flowers and Birds", Zhao Yuan sighed secretly, this painting has reached the realm of masters, but it has been smoked by fireworks, destroying the overall beauty.

"You like it too?" asked Yulan suddenly.

"What?" Zhao Yuan was stunned.

"This painting. ”

"It's fine. ”

"This is a painting by Wenxuan. ”

"Who is Wen Xuan?" Zhao Yuan was stunned, he had heard a little about the famous painters of the Great Qin Empire, but he had never heard of a person named Wen Xuan.

"Of course you don't know. Youlan smiled and said: "This painting was given by a sister who lived here, she said, the owner of this painting has been diligent all his life, has worked hard, has been self-reliant, and has a noble character." It's a pity that because of his arrogance, he didn't meet the powerful, and he was depressed all his life. ”

"It's a pity. Zhao Yuan sighed slightly, thinking of his ill-fated fate, if he went on like this for a long time, he would end up depressed one day.

"Yes, it is a pity that the sister was willing to elope with him, but she was refused, disheartened, and left the imperial capital, passing by here, reminiscing about the past, heartbroken, and gave me this painting, hoping that one day I would be able to return it to its original owner, and tell him that she was married. ”

"You're going to the imperial capital?"

"I don't have any plans for the time being, and the sister said that if I like it, I can keep this painting. Youlan said lightly.

"Xujiaqiao is also good. ”

"Yes. ”

The two of them had their own thoughts, chatting with each other, and at noon, Zhao Yuan got up to say goodbye. He didn't rush to ask Youlan for news, a woman like Youlan who has read countless people may show her feet with just a few words, and Zhao Yuan didn't want to take risks.

Back in the east courtyard, the kitchen in the west courtyard was just right to greet the meal.

"Am I dazzled, as if I saw Miss. Zhao Yuan squatted in front of the stove and asked casually.
