Then there was the sound of a small chime, and two half-armed men were the first to carry it up. On the table decorated with flowers, six-color fruits were already placed, all of which were peeled, cut into pieces, and peeled.
, citrus and other pulp and nuts were piled up in a pagoda-like pattern. At this time, the music played downstairs had changed to "Spring Orioles".
There are also maids who look like flowers and butterflies, serving a five-flower platter of snacks. They are all home-style delicacies such as dried meat, braised dried meat, marinated duck, chicken feet, roasted dumplings, etc.; but they are very delicately piled on the plate, and shredded.
The vegetables are put together into various shapes of lotus petals and ruffles, which is pleasing to the eye and appetizing.
The accompaniment of the soundtrack also turned into the ethereal and joyful "Crying of the Night". Another person brought seasonal drinks in celadon, white porcelain, and thin-bodied porcelain vases with broken patterns; but there were orchids, osmanthus, and patchouli.
, ice dew, cherry cheese, grape syrup, Japanese yellow, apricot milk and other flavors to choose from.
As the music and accompaniment of "Moon Moon Rises" started to play, the sweet-stuffed pearl dumpling milk soup, lotus soup with lilies stewed, water chestnut carvings and hu soup, chestnut paste and scallops in a cup were served as an appetizer.
; And at this time, the actual main course is far from visible.
But at this time, Kodak, who was already leaning on a soft cushion on the floor, clapped his hands out of thin air; he saw that the silver candlelights that were shining brightly in the pavilion were slowly being replaced by others.
Adjust it to make it darker. In the end, only a soft, non-glaring and visible level is left;
He then smiled at Jiang Tian, who was also doing Ge You's paralyzed posture on a pair of beautiful clothes:
"Sir, please look."
Jiang Tian could only see the faint sound of vocal music. As the light on the top floor of this small building dimmed for a moment, after his eyesight got used to the dim and clear lighting, he suddenly saw that the lights in the surrounding pavilions were as bright as daylight.
There is almost nothing to hide or cover, and there are all kinds of living beings in all shapes and forms.
Of course, even if it was my first time to come here and I had reservations, there would be no other sideshows; it would just be the simplest of eating, drinking, listening to music, chatting smoothly with Kodakya, and looking at the surrounding pavilions.
The sensuality in it is also quite relaxing and freehand.
For example, in the slightly larger pavilion on the left called Lantai, one of the prime ministers of the dynasty, Douluwang, the cousin of Douluozhuo, the third-rank disciple of Zhongshu, who was one of the prime ministers of the dynasty, was invited to the upper floor.
A banquet held by Yue to celebrate his admission to Jixian Yuan, one of the palaces and pavilions in the imperial court, and his noble and beautiful position as a seventh-grade corrector;
Therefore, it can be said that the scene was full of guests and no one came and went. For example, playing the pipa and playing the pipa nearby was Zheng Juju, a well-known Pingkang artist known as the "Pipa Lady"; the one who was showing off her singing voice behind the curtain was
Lady Jiangzhen, also known as "Miaoyin'er";
Surrounding Lady Jiangzhen's curtain, those who were admiring it in a mesmerizing manner were Lin Junxiu, a scholar in the capital, or Li Zhi, Liu Yuncheng, Yong Zhang and other well-known poets of the generation.
In the seat of the most distinguished guest on the lower left side of Douluwang, there is also Sun Longguang, the elegant and elegant previous generation who was born in Tanhua, and Sun Longguang, a regular attendant of Zuo Sanqi, accompanying him.
And placed at the banquet, Lang Guanchun and Apochun were also signed by Neifang. They looked very authentic, far from the half-baked goods sold in the East Market that were mixed with water. According to Jiang Tian's knowledge of this era,
Although most of the drinks are not high in alcohol content, they like to add various ingredients during the brewing process to present a rich and diverse texture and long flavor.
The songs and dances that served as entertainment banquets were also quite impressive. The one dancing like clouds with her skirts swaying in the hall was the "Lingbo Dance" performed by our famous dancer Cui Huan'er. It is said that it was performed by Xie Xie, a famous actress in Kaiyuan Dynasty.
The Dazheng voice has been handed down from the Aman; however, since the Anshi Rebellion, the Xie family has almost become a dead ringer since she was married to the Duke of Liang along with Princess Yong.
Of course, while the whole hall was full of people drinking and drinking, Douluwang, as the host of the banquet, also noticed the lights on the adjacent Ehua Tower. Then, he looked at his attendant and said:
"Let's go and find out what kind of people this person is who can make everyone fear him."
And in another pavilion on the right, which is brightly lit, but with the door closed, the windows ajar, and strong servants guarding and waiting, there is a group of men dressed in long gowns and plain headdresses. It is obvious that they are women who are either rich or noble.
A Golden Orchid Banquet is being held to welcome the new and the old.
However, compared to the lively and bustling lobby and middle floors where various gambling and lottery playing programs were going on, there were several slightly older women, hiding in silence under the trees on the roof terrace.
Under the cover of the shade, he used a pair of exquisitely crafted close-up mirrors to look at the conditions of various pavilions.
And when one of them swept to the Ehua Building, he immediately murmured to himself:
"It turns out that he is the one who can achieve success with his sword and live up to his youthful reputation!"
"I don't know whose family it is from. I'm young and tight, so I don't think I can be so determined."
"I like it better. I am smiling at the sky with my sword across my sword, leaving behind my liver and gallbladder, the heroic spirit of sacrificing my life for each other."
"I heard that he was the one who killed everyone during the Shangyuan Festival and rescued the little female disciple who was kidnapped by the gangsters."
"So, he is also a man of extraordinary courage and ancient style of chivalry."
"It's a pity that he is still a member of the Fenghuan sect. I'm afraid his career will be in trouble and his future will be hopeless in the future."
"Be careful with your words, be careful with your words. It was very easy for me to hide it from that little devil star. I advise him to attract attention and don't let his traces slip!"
In the Ehua Building, Ke Keya continued to point Jiang Tian to another place, a tall building in the middle connected by many flying corridors:
"Look, that place with eight sides and six floors is Wu Yun Tower, the largest place in the garden; it is said to be a place that can accommodate a thousand people for banquets."
"In addition to the large banquet hall on the first floor and the small banquet hall on the second floor, there are suites of various sizes and dozens of private rooms from the third floor onwards. They are said to have everything you need for a living room at home."
"You can even make people pretend to be parents, sisters, children, wives and concubines, and claim to be at home, with every detail taken care of. Therefore, the supply exceeds the demand all year round, and the house is like a market."
"Therefore, in the early years, there were some merchants in Beijing who took care of their affairs here after they accidentally got sick and couldn't afford it because their children and relatives were not around."
Jiang Tian was slightly startled when he heard this, but he couldn't help but feel a little interested; he didn't expect that in this era, there is such an immersive scene play style, and it also has the function of hospice care? It is indeed extremely ingenious.
There is a right way to make a living!
However, Kodakya pointed to another place, a five-story platform that was both long and wide, and said:
"The only one that can be compared with it now is the Feiming Tower. Compared with the Chinese style of Wuyun Tower and the Tang Dynasty, the main focus here is the foreign style."
"Therefore, it is said that each level is divided into several large areas, which include various scenes of the Qin, Anxi, Tianzhu, and Kunlun kingdoms in the outer regions."
"Therefore, when envoys from small foreign countries and princes from distant continents are sent out every five years, they usually choose this place as a place for private banquets and hospitality for fellow countrymen."
At this time, Jiang Tian suddenly let out a sigh and took the initiative to ask:
"What's the situation there?"
Following the faint noise, there was a brightly lit balcony opposite the mirrored pool; unexpectedly, people jumped down from the second and third floors one after another amid the exclamations and shouts.
"It turns out it's them!"
However, Kodakya looked at it and said disapprovingly:
"These are mostly martial arts lunatics from the Tong Xin Hui. All they do all day long is find people to fight with and teach them how to fight with swords. Among the dozens of clubs under the Jinghua Grand Shrine and the hundreds of martial arts villas, they are considered to be the leaders for a while."
"It is estimated that this time there was another dispute and conflict with other clubs at the banquet. However, it is still early before the World Martial Arts Tournament and the Grand Competition; there are not those good players from other states and other regions, so we can leave
There are signs, I'm afraid the trouble won't start."
"In addition, we are on Lady Liu's property right now. I guess the most they can do is send someone out to decide the winner in public just to entertain everyone."
Just as they were talking, the people who jumped down from the building were divided into three distinct groups on the spot. Then one person walked out from each of them, announced his name, then drew his sword and faced it, and started fighting with clanking sounds.
.
Although they are far away, their voices cannot be heard clearly, and their specific faces cannot be seen clearly; but there is naturally a pleasing rhythm and coordination between the rising and falling of rabbits and the flying of falcons, and the flickering of swords and swords.
The rhythm of sex.
Therefore, after a while, someone submitted a post with three names and a brief introduction, but it asked whether they wanted to bet on the corresponding sword fighting candidates; obviously the operators of the park and their subordinates,
I am already familiar with this kind of thing.
Of course Jiang Tian couldn't deny it. However, Ke Keya was very familiar with it. He circled a name and added two strokes, then smiled at him and said:
"Although it's just a trivial trick that won't work on the stage, sir, you might as well give it a try."
“I don’t care about winning or losing anyway, I’m just having fun during my free time.”
However, just as he finished speaking, before Jiang Tian could make a decision, something suddenly happened in the courtyard.
