[Rebirth] Anecdote of Li Tang

After resting in the monastery for a while, I saw that it was already time.Looking at the gradually weakening sun, Li Chengqian walked down the wooden pagoda first.

Yixin followed him down the pagoda, and suddenly Li Chengqian asked the guard behind him in surprise: "Have you ever seen the jade pendant on my waist?"

Yi Xin was startled, but before she answered, the two guards shook their heads.

Li Chengqian made a distressed look: "It must have just fallen, it is the jade pendant given to me by my father, what should I do if it is gone?"

Xinxin hugged Li Chengqian during the day, where did she see any jade pendants.Seeing Li Chengqian questioning the two guards, he began to think about it.

He turned around and told the guards: "Hurry up and find the jade pendant for the son."

The two guards looked at me and I looked at you, and they both saw hesitation in each other's eyes.

Seeing this, Yixin said in a deep voice: "I am waiting here with the prince, you two can go at ease, I will take care of everything."

Since Xinxin is a calm and capable person in his daily affairs, the two of them felt relieved and went to find the jade pendant for Li Chengqian one after the other.

Li Chengqian mumbled in a low voice until he could no longer see the figures of those two people: "I'm full of bad water." As he spoke, he took Xin Xin's hand and ran out of the temple.

While running along with Xin Xin, she said softly, "Shi Zi, where do you want to go?"

Li Chengqian paused, his tone impatient: "Don't you want to see Lin Shuang'er, there is a curfew at sunset, so hurry up and leave."

Yixin keenly sensed the emotion in Li Chengqian's words, and tentatively asked: "If the prince is tired, let's go back."

Li Chengqian opened his mouth, and it took him a long time to come out with a sentence: "Whoever is tired, everyone in Pingkangfang knows how beautiful it is. Of course I... want to see it too."

Xinxin smiled secretly, once again confirming that Li Chengqian must be well versed in personnel affairs.Otherwise, how would Li Chengqian, who has never been in contact with these things, know what they all know?

After running for a long distance, the two of them gradually slowed down and took a shortcut to Pingkangfang.At this time, the sun was almost slanting to the west, and the number of pedestrians in each square gradually decreased.

After walking for a while, Li Chengqian slowed down.He looked at the hands he shook with Xinxin, and suddenly said: "If someone finds out about our not returning all night, I'm afraid you..."

After a while of ironing, the child's mouth is unforgiving, but his heart is softer than anyone else.

He took advantage of the situation and patted Li Chengqian's head: "When the sun sets, the door of the workshop is closed, and it may be too late to rush back to the mansion now."

Hearing this, Li Chengqian almost gritted his teeth, he didn't know what he was thinking, he just thought it was Fang Yi who was outspoken, and when he became anxious, he didn't care about anything.

He sneered and said, "You and I haven't tied our hair yet, even if Lin's house is open to welcome guests, why should we let you in? Just wait for the door to be closed."

Xinxin shook his head pretending to be mysterious, and pulled Li Chengqian calmly: "You will also say that it is a place where the door is open to welcome guests, I have my own way..."

The two of them walked into Pingkang Square awkwardly.In just a short time, it was completely dark.The gate of the workshop has been locked, and the workshop, which should have been quiet, is now brightly lit.

There is no other reason, just because this land boundary is too special.Whether it is a dignitary or a literati, going to Pingkangfang for recreation at night has become a form of nightlife.

Yixin and Li Chengqian walked hand in hand on an unfamiliar street, both of them were secretly excited.

In the last life, neither Xinxin nor Li Chengqian had been to Pingkangfang.I just heard some romantic anecdotes indirectly from other people's mouths.When they really came here this time, the two of them felt that the situation was a little different from what they had imagined.

Yixin has been carefully counting the third house in Nanqu. The location of Lin's House is quite prominent in Nanqu, and he has the bearing of a wealthy family. One can tell at a glance that the identity of the owner is not simple.When the two got closer, they realized that there were only two lanterns hanging at the gate, and one door was still ajar, and there was no one to welcome guests. However, even so, people with different costumes still came in one after another.

At this time, Li Chengqian had completely abandoned his temper during the day, and held one hand tightly with Yixin, sweating inexplicably.Strangely, Li Chengqian's heart was full of curiosity, doubt, and excitement, but he was not half-distracted.

Taking advantage of the confusion, he raised his head, looked at the handsome profile of Xinxin against the moonlight, and couldn't help but clenched his hands even tighter.

It was only after the two of them entered the door that they realized that there was a hole in the mansion.It was a large courtyard with four entrances, with unique rocks and luxuriant flowers and trees, all of which were arranged out of the ordinary, from which one can also get a glimpse of the taste of the owner of the house.

Going a little further, there is a flower hall that can accommodate a hundred people. At the entrance, there is a madam in Chinese clothes smiling at the passing guests.

The madam didn't entertain customers, and she seldom even made a sound.But when the guests passed by, they still consciously left money.

After taking a look at it, Xin knew that it was the rule of entering the venue, if he wanted to enter the flower hall, he had to pay first.

The two came to the door with the flow of people, the madam saw them, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes, just about to speak, she heard Xin asked: "Dare to ask my lady, how can I enter this flower hall?"

When the madam heard the words, she stopped the car again.With a pair of watery eyes, he looked up and down at Xu Xin and Li Chengqian, and finally smiled sweetly and stretched out five fingers.

Wuzi!

This price is really not low, and I know that entering the flower hall is the first hurdle set by the Lin family.Five 锾 is equivalent to five hundred wen. The first hurdle is to sieve financial resources.You must know that there is only one person. Even if most people pay to enter the flower hall, they are just going through the motions, watching the performance of the geisha, and acting as a foil in the flower hall.

But even so, there was still an endless stream of people entering the flower hall.It is because Lin Du knows that he is a person on the cloud, those officials who are usually high-spirited in the court, the literati who splash ink in the study, and the exams in the examination room, all want to fight, maybe A little luck to try something new.

Is it cheap, it is indeed cheap.But isn't Pingkangfang able to prosper for a long time because of this cheap psychology?

Yi Xin took out a small bag from her bosom, and put it in the hands of the madam lightly and delicately.The madam raised her hand and weighed it, but without saying anything, she turned around and took a guest's money.

Li Chengqian couldn't believe it, he entered the flower hall so easily, and the madam didn't stop him.Xinxin understands it very well, better than anyone else.

No matter how this Pingkang Square is decorated, it can't change its essence of flesh and blood business.The madam who was standing in front of the door just now, even if she smiled kindly, is still a master who recognizes money but does not recognize people.

As long as you bring enough money, no matter how narrow the door is, the first door is always passable.

When I was in Taichang Temple in the past, why was Xinxin's situation not like this?An actor, to put it nicely, is a member of the Taichang Temple. To put it bluntly, he is supported by the government and is convenient for the nobles to play with.

Thinking of this, Xin Xin's body trembled unconsciously.

Li Chengqian, who was led by him, immediately noticed something strange.He raised his eyes to look at Xin Xin, in the bright flower hall, Xin Xin's face turned pale.

Before Li Chengqian could ask, the flower hall was filled with people one after another, counting as 110 people, and the rest had to come back another day.

The door of the mansion was slowly closed, indicating that the luxurious banquet in the inner courtyard had begun.Different from the finale mentioned by later generations, Lin Duzhi, who everyone was looking forward to, was the first one to come out.

She was wearing a pink and purple blouse and a dark green floor-length skirt. She was wearing the flying high bun that was recently popular in Chang'an City. Her breasts were half exposed, which made many men excited instantly.

Judging by the standards of today's people, Lin Shuang'er is definitely not a stunning beauty, but she is a dedicated lady with a tantalizing smile on her lips.In the blink of an eye, the wine glasses in front of the gentlemen were filled.The lady in the early Tang Dynasty did not have the shyness of holding a pipa and half covering her face. She just stood in the hall and took out a flower hairpin.

The flower hairpins were passed down among the guests one by one, and Lin Shuang'er turned her back and shouted to stop.Whoever got the flower hairpin at the time of the stop will have to accept the drinking order that everyone knew had previously set, if not, he will be punished with three drinks.If she catches it well, Lin Shuang'er will punish herself with three cups.

You must know that most of the people who have the confidence to come into Lin's residence, except for a few who pretend to be fake, have real talents and real learning.

The sound of the pipa sounded, and the flower hairpins began to pass.Whenever Lin Shuang'er shouted to stop, the sound of the pipa would stop abruptly. Today's drinking order is not difficult, the main thing is to stir up the atmosphere.

The two ladies pulled the ribbon, and the scroll that was originally tied to the beam of the house fell down.

There is a couplet written on it: "A candle in the wind, half of it flows, and half of it stays."

This is the first question Lin Shuanger asked all the guests today.

Because Xinxin only paid one person's money, Li Chengqian was forced to sit on his lap by him. He was feeling aggrieved at the moment. When he first saw the Shanglian, he couldn't help but sneered and said, "I thought it was something new. Son, it’s just an old couple who have been confronted by countless people.”

Indeed, that pair is left over from the predecessors' play, and there is not much new interest in it.It's just an image in the front, followed by two homophones, but the meanings of the two homophones are opposite.

For most of the guests, this pairing is not difficult, but after a short time, several people successfully paired up the next couplet.And Lin Shuang'er didn't hesitate at all, and poured the fine wine into her stomach cup by cup in front of everyone.Her movements are also very imaginative. When she is interested, she directly picks up the jug and pours it into her mouth. The yellow-brown wine flows down her snow-white chest. For a while, the hall is filled with the voices of a crowd of gentlemen. Whispering.

Li Chengqian and Yixin are probably two exceptions.Yi Xin moved her body, but in such a big atmosphere, she seemed a little anxious.
