Jiangning City is a city built on ruins. Emperor Gaozu not only demolished the walls, but also destroyed the architectural pattern of Jiangning City. Wuyi Lane, where wealthy families once lived, is still full of weeds and no one cares about it hundreds of years later.
The academy has also been abandoned for a long time, and the loud sound of students reading in the lighted paper windows can no longer be seen.
Although the Qinhuai River has lost its former prosperity, it is still the most lively place in Jiangning City, and it has a more aura of travel. The most common thing along the river is the painted boat with a pretty girl singing and playing the piano, which attracts those arty and pretentious people.
Extraordinary young man.
The flower boats leaning against the shore are the money-spending nests of these noble gentlemen. They gather a few friends and have a chat, drink two glasses of flower wine, and listen to one or two pieces of music.
Sprinkle money everywhere, as if the reward is small, the social status will drop, making people look down upon.
"What are you doing, Cui'er, standing there stunned! Mr. Xie wants to board the ship, but I don't know how to say hello to the lady."
In front of the gangplank, a woman with heavy makeup and a peach blossom face welcomed Mr. Xie and his party onto the boat. They said they were a group, but in fact they were only two or three people.
The Xie family was a wealthy family hundreds of years ago and produced many literati and great scholars, so the Xie family produced talented people. It’s a pity that God is jealous of the Xie family. By Xie Yanzhi’s generation, the Xie family has long been inferior to what it used to be in terms of financial resources and population.
The declining families in Jiangning City.
Xie Yanzhi's calligraphy was excellent, and his landscape paintings were even more outstanding. Unfortunately, the Xie family declined, and Xie Yanzhi's father was not very capable. Xie Yanzhi became the mainstay of the Xie family, and Xie Yanzhi had to bear all the expenses.
No thanks, Yan Zhi went to the most difficult painting boat on the Qinhuai River.
The most beautiful woman south of the Huaihe River is on the third floor of the Qin and Han Dynasty boats. The boats are three stories high. Shi Youwei, who has been in her 20s, has a sweet appearance and is proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, especially singing a good song.
, if it had not fallen into the dust of the world, it would have competed with the four beauties in the world.
Not everyone can board the oiran's boat in the south of the Yangtze River. Either you are the hero of the party, or your literary talent is unparalleled in ancient and modern times, or you are the richest in the world. If you don't take advantage of it, don't bring shame on yourself.
Xie Yanzhi boarded the Qin-Han Painting Boat, but he did not come to spread money, because his family had no money, so he came to make money.
Xie Yanzhi was seen holding two scrolls in his arms. He was careful not to say anything when he was crossing the springboard. He even turned around and said, "Zhi Ge! Watch me, don't let me fall into the water!".
The fateful friendship between Wang Zhige and Xie Yanzhinai was due to the fact that their fates were too similar. They were both big and declining families in Jiangning City, and they both had talents but failed in their ambitions. Wang Zhige was different again.
After ten years of writing as a saint, he resolutely gave up writing and learned martial arts, became a disciple of the Changshou Sect and embarked on another path.
"Don't worry, even if you fall into the water with me here, I can still keep your two paintings." Wang Zhige said with a smile.
Wang Zhige was in a very good mood today, because thanks to Xie Yanzhi's favor, he had the opportunity to board the Qin and Han Dynasty Painting Boat and meet the Jiangnan oiran...
Cui'er stood on the third floor of the boat and waved to Mr. Xie: "Mr. Xie, come up quickly. Don't keep the lady waiting!"
Cui'er welcomed Mr. Xie and the three of them into the boat, only to see the beautiful woman in pink gauze, with her breasts slightly exposed and the whites of her eyes, and her half-haired maidservant with a golden phoenix hairpin.
I guess I’m going to invite you to tea!”
"Miss Youwei is joking! Xie got inspired by chance and made two paintings, so he was anxious to ask the girl to taste them." Xie Yanzhi hurriedly handed the scroll over.
Shi Youweixue took the scroll with her arms half exposed, looked at the two people behind Xie Yanzhi, and joked: "Whether it's tasting or buying and selling, these are not urgent! What I am more anxious about is whether Mr. Xie has forgotten something.
?”
Xie Yanzhi slapped his forehead and smiled awkwardly: "Look at my memory! I actually forgot to introduce my two best friends to Miss Youwei."
"Wang Zhige studied under the Changshou Sect, and we are the third son of the Wang family in Jiangning City."
As he said that, Xie Yanzhi looked at the tall, elegant and handsome scholar in a blue gown and said, "Brother Qiu Yi, a man from Daxing, we met by chance a few days ago and we felt like old friends at the first sight!"
Shi Youwei and Wang Zhige met Li again and then sat down.
Shi Youwei poured the tea herself and then slowly opened the two scrolls...
The green shore stretches to the deserted shore, and mist and rain surround the bow of the boat.
The blue waves reflect the blue fir trees, and the forgotten book laughs at Qinhuai.
Seeing the calligraphy and seeing the painting, Shi Youwei raised her eyebrows slightly and smiled slightly: "This painting is of Young Master Yinong traveling to Qinhuai, right?"
Xie Yanzhijun blushed and explained: "It was drizzling that day. My eldest brother stood quietly on the bow of the boat holding an ancient book in his hand, but there was no book to read. His eyes were full of Qinhuai, so he painted this painting "Looking at Qinhuai in the thick autumn mist and rain"
, Make the girl laugh!"
"I have wonderful paintings and artistic conception skills. This painting is considered to be the best. This other painting is a little less interesting. Of course it can be regarded as a masterpiece." As she said this, Shi Youwei stood up and put the two paintings together.
Hanging behind him.
Xie Yanzhi felt ashamed and said: "I only have this little ability left! I can only make a living by selling paintings. If it weren't for the help of Miss Youwei who sold them at high prices, I would really have become a poor scholar!"
Shi Youwei shook her head and said: "I don't dare to take credit for it. If the young master doesn't have the ability, even if I am eloquent and people look down on me, I won't pay for it!"
After saying thanks and polite words, the few of them chatted about the outstanding people and events in the recent Qian Dynasty.
Naturally, beautiful women are more interested in beautiful women. They always want to take a look and compare, and the topic turns to the beauty from Dongdu.
"I heard that the princess is already a martial arts master and is quite accomplished in music. I am really ashamed of myself! If I have the chance, I really want to meet her!" Shi Youwei said with great admiration.
Wang Zhige had heard of Chen Buwen among the four beauties. Especially this year, Chen Buwen was slightly more popular than the other three. It can be said that everyone in the Qian Dynasty knew about it. However, he had heard of it but had never seen it.
, Wang Zhige was a little unconvinced. After all, the beauty in front of him was truly stunning, so he said: "Young girl Youwei is not good at martial arts, so there is no comparison. But in terms of music, Youwei is the best in Jiangnan, and her beauty is
Even more so than other mortal women, I think Miss Youwei is too modest."
"I agree with Zhi Ge." Xie Yanzhi nodded in agreement.
Seeing the strong autumn mood, Shi Youwei did not say anything, so she smiled and said: "Young Master Yinong is a Daxing person. He is not far from the east. Have you ever met the princess?"
Qiu Yi Nian shook her head and said: "I rarely leave Daxing City, so I have only heard about the princess but never seen it. However, I was lucky enough to see Mu Pinshan a few days ago. The little girl is quite capable of making trouble!"
Seeing that the autumn atmosphere was thick and talking about the Nine-Tian Flying Fox, Wang Zhige asked: "Is Mupin Mountain really as rumored, one of the most beautiful places in the world, and the Nine-Tian Flying Fox alone has eight fights?"
Qiuyi smiled and said: "I have not seen many beauties in the world, so I dare not make any judgments about her beauty. However, I have seen her mountain, and few men in the world can take it."
Shi Youwei wondered: "What mountain? Why do all the men in the world want to take it?"
Qiu Yi Nian thought about it for a while, guessing that the news about Mu Pinshan acting as a demon in Daxing City had not yet reached Jiangning, so he smiled and slowly told the three of them what happened in the Military God's Mansion.
After hearing Mu Pinshan's story, Xie Yanzhi shook his head and said: "With such a fierce spirit, no man in the world would dare to kiss Fangze!"
Wang Zhige sighed and smiled: "It seems that I have no chance. I can't catch the sword from that mountain. I can only avoid it if I encounter it!"
But Shi Youwei smiled and said: "Women are not inferior to men. It's a pity that I don't know kung fu. Otherwise, I would like to use my sword to help people in danger and rescue people in distress. Wouldn't it be great!"
The autumn atmosphere looked at Shi Youwei with a smile on her face, but she didn't say much...
When Wang Zhige heard Shi Youwei talking about sword fighting at the end of the world, Wang Zhige seemed to think of something and said with a smile: "I heard from Yan Zhi that Miss Youwei plans to go north for a walk next year. I wonder if Miss Youwei still needs a bag guard?"
Shi Youwei covered her mouth and smiled: "I can't afford to hire the third son of the Wang family!"
A few people were talking and laughing when they heard shouting and noise coming from outside the boat...
"Miss, miss, what's wrong! Several foreigners came outside the boat, clamoring to board the boat." Cui'er's nervous trembling voice arrived before the people arrived.
Shi Youwei sells her art but not her body, and her reputation in Jiangnan is very loud. Most of the black and white people know Shi Youwei's rules, and it is difficult to force them. After all, the Tuoba family must treat each other with courtesy. Is it possible that you are better than the Tuoba family?
Even more powerful. If you break the rules, the Tuoba family will be slapped in the face, and the matter will not end well.
Therefore, even the maid Cui'er of the Qin and Han Dynasty Boat House dared to make trouble for others, but today is different from the past. The group of people outside are a group of foreign barbarians who do not understand etiquette. If one of them fails, big trouble will occur.
Shi Youwei got up, not to go out to meet the barbarians, but to pour tea for the three guests again. She said calmly: "Ask who they are, and then tell the boatman."
I went to the governor's house and told him that someone was causing trouble at the Qin and Han Dynasties."
Shi Youwei is able to get along in Jiangnan not only because of her beauty, but also because her jade-like hands control most of the boats on the Qinhuai River. The amount of money seen on the Qinhuai River every day is enough to scare people to death. Some of these coins can
They are all used to manage the government.
So, making trouble on the Qinhuai River is a more serious matter than smashing up the county governor's house. As soon as the words were brought here, the governor's son led hundreds of soldiers and rushed to the Qin and Han Dynasty to paint the boat
…
The Tuoba family in Jiangning City has the final say, but after all, your Tuoba family has never rebelled, so the head of a county must still have the cards it deserves, and the soldiers it deserves must not be missing. But these mansions
Soldiers are more of a pretense. If they are dealing with street gangsters, they are easy to catch, but if they are people in the world, they are a little unable to do what they want.
The governor's son has an official status. He is the governor of Jiangning City. Although he is a military attache, he has no military force. He is just a young man who wants to show off his power. For Tuoba Jiong, the governor's son wants to show off.
If you want prestige, then I will show you prestige. As long as you don't harm the people of Jiangning City, I will turn a blind eye and turn a blind eye.
The governor's son was running out of breath, but he finally arrived at the Qin and Han Dynasty Boat Boat. He saw a group of strangely dressed aliens standing on the bank with scimitars at their waists, gesticulating, and chirping birds constantly...
