He planted peonies in the Tang Dynasty

"In the Linde Palace banquet, the Supreme Lord asked the boys from the Baiguan's family to peel crab meat for the [-] old men. Let me think about it. Xiao Qiaofu, Zhang Jiuling, Han Xiu, Pei Yaoqing, Li Linfu are also there, and Wei Siqing, really. It is radiant."

"When I was playing the pipa, I was trembling all over, and I was so scared that I was dying. Fortunately, it was a Gongyin from Mr. Li... I played it wrong. The Supreme Master didn't even ask my name, just joking with a few elders."

Along the way, Su An rode proudly on the horse, and described the erotic scenes in the palace vividly. When he turned around, he saw a trace of loneliness flashing in Gu Yue's eyes, but he immediately returned to a warm smile.

"Asu, I called two friends today, and they have been taking care of Gu Shiba all this time." Gu Yue said, "It just so happens that it's Mid-Autumn Festival, and they are also free-tempered, and want to see you."

Su An asked: "What do you see me doing, Tuo Gu?" Gu Yue coughed: "That's right, if you change your mind and don't like it in the future, where can I find my young master?" Su An laughed and said: "Scholar, stingy. "

The custom of looking at the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival originated in the court, and it was made a must-have festival for the royal family when it was passed down to the founding of the country.After decades of peace in the world, the attention of the court gradually spread to the people and became a fashion, and every family began to eat moon cakes.

In the past, in the countryside of my hometown in Shaozhou, moon cakes were just white dough, and it was rare to add sesame seeds. Sugar was a luxury, and no one would eat it.But now, with the bright moon shining in the sky, Gushibali is crowded with people, and the aroma of wine and meat is overflowing. More than a hundred men walk through the drafty thatched hut, entertaining themselves, twisting and turning.

Su An skilfully jumped off the horse, walked to the cabinet, ordered three hundred pots of sweet-scented osmanthus wine in the library, greeted Aunt Abo, sat down alone, and glanced at two strange figures in the courtyard .

Gu Yue came with an exquisitely printed mooncake, and said with a smile: "Ningyuanzhai's special one, wheat yellow skin, lotus paste filling, golden egg yolk, delicate and soft, Boss Hu said Chang'an is the only one, and no one in the palace can eat it .”

Su An said: "Thank you." Gu Yue said: "It's a great trip to the palace, thank you? Go and wash my face clean." Su An said: "No, first tell me who they are." Gu Yue said: " Wang Tingfu, Guo Yi, come to see the young master."

One has half-open cloth shirt, disheveled hair, thin face, and a bamboo hat pinned to his waist, looking like a Jianghu.But when this man's eyes opened, it was as if a fire was ignited in the withered thorns, and he had an impressive aura.

Another raised his glass to invite the bright moon, as bright as a jade tree before the wind.His clothes fluttered lightly, outlining a handsome and healthy figure, if it weren't for the ringing of the Ruima plate hanging on the scorpion, it would almost be a silent shadow under the moon.

Su An's make-up hadn't faded away, so she met Wang Tingfu, the Prime Minister of the East City Department, and Shi Guoyi, the Chief of the Left Guard of the Nanya Office.Although these two people have never met him, they have dealt with him countless times through Gu Shiba's buddies. Every time, whenever there is a dispute in Yongchangfang, Gu Yue will find them to settle it.

Wang Tingfu, a member of Fan Yang Dao, who became an official in the Ming Dynasty, is currently in charge of the market in Wannian County, Chang'an. Which one is short of catties and two, which one opens and closes, is all within his responsibility. It is said that he has sealed up Gu Shiba eight times. One wish can come true.

Such an official, gentle and talented in front of others, but because of his love of martial arts, he secretly worshiped Uncle Gu as his teacher, determined to break through Huangsha and join the army.The gun he had just danced weighed eighty catties, and it was Guo Yi's personal possession.

Guo Yi was born in Wuju, and he called Liniang's sister-in-law, and he was called brother and brother with the Jinwu Guards all over the city. He also cut down the Tubo handsome flag in a bloody storm, but he has an unknown hobby. He likes to write poems, and he writes a lot of poems .

"Once the autumn wind is cool, Gu will be able to go to high school next year." Gu Yue picked up the knife, followed Sifang's simple rules, cut open the oily mooncakes, and put them in four pottery bowls, "Asu, I have wronged you and them." One point."

Su An smiled awkwardly, thinking that the two people's appearances were simply confusing black and white: "Then I...play a piece of pipa for a few officials to cheer up?" Gu Yue nodded and said: "If you accompany the song, you will definitely get it. Sincerely."

Wang Tingfu was very interested, straightened the bamboo hat with one hand, and asked: "I heard people say that the famous songs of Liyuan Lin Zhenzhen are actually composed by Mr. Su, is it true or not?" Gu Yue said: "Really." Guo Yi said: "Then Just right, how about Wang Shicheng writing a poem?" Wang Tingfu waved his hand: "Showing off in front of others is nothing compared to General Guo, who is always flirtatious."

"In this case, I must play this song." Su An smiled, drinking to accompany the music, he drank two jars of Shaochun wine at the age of 13, and now it is enough to drink a thousand cups, "The song was taught by Le Zheng, Qingle "Bai Xue"."

Guo Yi was very happy, and uttered one or two words: "Mingyue, oh, Mingyue..." Su An said: "Come on, the half-immortal show under the Yinhua tree, the moon shadow is three thousand for Nan'an." Gu Yue frowned: "You Where did you hear that?"

When he closed his eyes, what Su An thought about was a piece of harmonious and beautiful moon cake. When he opened his eyes, what he thought about was the magnificence and prosperity of the Daming Palace. willing to wake up.

Gu Yue pressed the strings of his pipa: "Asu, no matter what Yinhuashu and half-immortal play, now that you are old, you should have your own ideas, and Wang Shicheng and General Guo have known me for many years, who are they? , just say two things."

"For one thing, the city tax at the beginning of Kaiyuan was originally the same for the rich and the poor. So whenever the imperial court celebrates rewards or fights, there will always be rich people who bribe the princes and delay paying taxes, and run the poor away. When the incident happened, it was Wang Shicheng's remonstrance. Mr. Pei, who is Ren Jingzhaoyin, according to the weight, first collects the tax on the rich, and then collects the tax on the poor, just to establish this rule..."

After the death of his wife and children, this bold Wang Tingfu suggested that the Taifu Temple and the Ministry of Internal Affairs distribute all kinds of palace salaries to Hushi, so as to show the sincerity of the imperial court to maintain peace to the countries in the Western Regions, so as to mobilize power and pacify the Khitan in the northeast.

"Secondly, before the Tubo Rebellion, the imperial court failed to conquer Khitan, and Yingzhou fell. Taking care of Li Wan, a business girl who has not joined the government, for Sun Quan for 13 years..."

Wang Tingfu chewed on the mooncake, and said loudly, "Gu Lang, every time you compliment people in front of others, can you put it another way? Now the whole city knows that we, black and white, are two bachelors when we go out."

Gu Yue said: "That's not the case, that is, the uncle in Yongchangfang knows that it's no big deal. Besides, I deserve it right as a bachelor, and you are high-spirited, how can you be compared? Come, let me respect you again."

Su An didn't interrupt, just buried her head in strumming the strings, until the tea lady came over, bent down and pressed her ears to speak, scared him away from the pipa, and the talking and laughing gradually stopped.Wang Tingfu and Guo Yi turned their heads and looked at Su An in surprise.

Su An was too embarrassed.The tea lady said: "Young master, you have to remind Gu Lang to report to the two officials what happened in the market." Gu Yue said: "Okay, Wang Shicheng, General Guo, let Asu talk to you today , He said that he wanted to take over Gu Shiba a long time ago." Su An said: "Huh?" Gu Yue blinked at him.

Su An could only agree, and immediately felt like being pulled into a thief's boat.He took a few books from Uncle Gu and flipped through them again and again. There were no words on them, and they were all Gu Shiba's special symbols for keeping safe money.Ping'an money is black money, which has been practiced for decades. It is used to uphold justice and mediate disputes, and to drive away difficult princes and nobles.In Pingchangfang, Gu Shiba is an intermediary merchant who collects peace money for the government, so regardless of everything else, without the support of Wang Tingfu and Guo Yi, Gu Shiba cannot do business, but if Gu Shiba makes trouble, Wang Tingfu He and Guo Yi couldn't get along in the Yamen of the Liangjing City Administration and the Twelve Guards of the Nanya.

"In the middle of this year, at Shop 26 of Yongchangfang, my tea shop uniformly collects hidden taxes, and Xiangdezhuang pays money." Before, Su An overheard Gu Yue talking about these things, and now he said like a cat, "According to the old rules, we Twenty-eight points."

Wang Tingfu crossed his legs and said with a smile: "Mr. Su can play the pipa, I remember." Su An said: "Don't dare." Say hello, and we'll meet again some other day."

In the middle of the night, sporadic shouts came from the street, Guo Yi and a few acquaintances of the Jinwu Guard chatted and laughed, and left with Wang Tingfu.Su An ordered Uncle Gu to escort the two of them, and also told them to guard against the embankment.

After the people left, there was a big round moon hanging in the sky. Su An raised her head, stared blankly for a while, then walked to the side of the water tank, scooped up a ladle of water, scattered the big moon on the water surface, and washed it away. makeup.

Gu Yue put the pipa away, and drank the rest of the wine by himself: "They are my friends, and they will never make you smile, but if one day, you feel that these ordinary things will drag you down, I will never climb up on them." pull."

Su An's own clothes were still stained with water, but he only looked at Gu Yue. Under the moonlight, he was wearing a neat and clean plain shirt, a pair of eyes as bright as amber, and lips as red as blood.

How could such a person be stingy with kindness and righteousness and a bright heart?Even if you search all over the Daming Palace and all over the world, you may not be able to find another one.Su An smiled, and the seeds in her heart took root.

When he came back to his senses, Gu Yue was wiping his face with a cloth in his hand: "Why do you always like to look at me in a daze? What do you think?" Su An said: "You don't need to ask, I said, I recognize you .” Gu Yue’s hand paused slightly.

A group of spectators crowded in the yard to watch, Uncle and Aunt shook their heads, alas, the young boss bullied the old boss, if this situation continues, I don't know when Gu Shiba will become Su Shiba.

Due to the strict control of the Tai Le Department, Su An has never dared to spend the night outside the imperial city.Tonight's Mid-Autumn Festival was a special case. He faced a round window, thinking about his hometown, looking at the moon, chatting about Chang'e and osmanthus trees, and talking a lot with Gu Yue who was sitting by the couch.

Gu Yue propped one hand on the window sill, his eyelids drooping: "Sleepy." Su An thought for a while and said, "Eighteen, in two days I plan to go to Xu Mansion with Lu Lan to appreciate the laurel, he said that Xu Qing was born this year. Chief examiner of Changke, would you like to go together?"
