"The Perfect Young Master" Fang Lanling is a suave and charming person. There are many rumors about him in the world, and the most popular one is his experience of going through three hurdles in order to marry Wu Cuishan. There is also a book "Lan Ling" compiled by some meddlesome people.
"Anecdotes of the Mausoleum", this story is naturally indispensable.
Today, seeing the heroine in the story with their own eyes, everyone couldn't help but taste it carefully. Wu Cuishan was generous and said with a smile: "Sister Yuan has an indifferent temperament and has never liked socializing, so the rituals of asking for drinks to add to the fun can be saved.
Save it, friends, feel free to do whatever you want."
While they were talking, maids and maids were bringing wine and food to each table. Immediately the whole building was filled with fragrance, making people salivate.
Xiao Lei first scooped up a spoonful of Buddha Jumping Over the Wall. When he touched his lips, his eyes lit up. He nodded repeatedly and said, "What a good old Fatty Liang. He really worked hard this time. When it comes to soup-making skills, he is one of the best in our town."
Mu Yun picked out a chopstick of steamed lion's head. The meatballs were filled with broth. The taste was extremely fresh and strong. The meat was extremely tender. The ratio of fat to lean was just right. Once he tasted it, his mouth was full of fragrance. There were 84,000 pores in his body.
All comfortable.
Originally surrounded by women, Mu Yun had some scruples and wanted to maintain his image. However, the temptation of the delicious food was so great that he couldn't control himself at all. He showed his true nature as a glutton on the spot and used his hands and mouth simultaneously to enjoy the meal.
Almost.
Seeing this, Wei Tingshang secretly raised his forehead, and when he looked at Xiao Lei, he was also "whispering like a storm", and for a moment he felt even more confused about whether to laugh or cry.
"Ayi" was elegant in manners, and her behavior was comparable to that of a prince. Although Fang Ruxin and Chen Yaqi moved their index fingers, they didn't want to make people laugh, so they could only eat slowly and patiently.
Wu Cuishan's bright eyes moved around, taking in the entire scene. She smiled and cleared her throat and said, "You are all distinguished guests of our office. Sister Yuan has specially prepared a gift, intending to give it to someone who is destined. I am ordered to host the birthday banquet.
Let me be the storyteller and explain to you the origin of this thing."
Everyone knew that this "gift" was not trivial, so most of them stopped eating and turned their attention to Wu Cuishan, only to hear her continue: "This thing is listed as one of the ten unique things in this sea market, and it is called the 'Xianwu Legacy'.
Put on a precious dance costume.”
"All the distinguished guests invited here today must be the masters of the country of dance. Have you ever heard of the name 'Luoyang Flower Queen'?"
After speaking for a moment, Wu Cuishan looked around with a smile to see who would answer.
Although Mu Yun and others were aware of the ins and outs, they had no intention of making the limelight. There was silence for a moment, and then the woman in white across the street said harmoniously: "The Queen of Flowers in Luoyang was named Shu Qianping. She passed away about thirty years ago. I heard
His dancing skills are extraordinary and he is deeply loved by officials and common people."
Wu Cuishan raised her hands and smiled and said: "Miss Mu is really knowledgeable and knowledgeable. As the saying goes, 'Xue Ying dances to the heart of Chang'an.' You, the contemporary 'Queen of Flowers of Chang'an,' can already be said to be better than others."
It turns out that the woman in white is named Mu Xueying, and she is the owner of the Mirror Flower Shuiyue Tower in Chang'an. This Mirror Flower Shuiyue Tower is not an ordinary Qin Tower and Chu Pavilion. It has always served guests only with silk and bamboo singing and dancing, and there is absolutely nothing deviant about it. It is highly praised by literati.
Hearing Wu Cuishan's praise, Mu Xueying smiled slightly and said, "Mrs. Dong, thank you for your praise. I am still self-aware, how dare I stand shoulder to shoulder with the sages of the Wu Kingdom."
Wu Cuishan chuckled and said: "Miss Mu, there is no need to be modest. Although this Luoyang Queen has unparalleled dancing skills, her life experience has been quite bumpy."
"The Shu family was originally a Huaiyin family. Since the Song Dynasty, people have emerged in large numbers, either serving as officials in the court or benefiting the countryside. In short, they have an excellent reputation."
"In the past, there were many masters of the Shu family in the martial arts world, such as Shu Shigong, the 'Seven-fingered Divine Appearance', and Shu Longhu, the 'Immortal Lord of the Supreme Qin', etc."
"Shu Qianping's father is named Shu Dinghai. He was an official in the Jiangnan Shipping Department in his early years. He originally rose to prominence and was expected to be promoted to Beijing. But at this critical moment, he was implicated in the Jiangnan Chief Envoy's serial corruption case. Although it was not a big mistake, it was I also suffered a lot, and in the end I had to cut my job to serve the people."
"Shu Dinghai did not recover from the fall. After returning to his hometown in Huaiyin, he spent all his savings to set up a trading house, specializing in waterway trade."
"After all, Shu Dinghai has been an official in the Shipping Department for many years. He is popular and knows how to do business. He made a comeback within a few years and became a well-known local wealthy gentleman."
"Shu Dinghai has a son and a daughter. The eldest son, Shu Chuanwen Minrui, is eager to learn. He has been working in a business firm since he was a child and is especially good at actuarial calculations."
"Shu Dinghai suffered a big loss in the officialdom. He had no intention of letting his descendants join the official career. Seeing that Shu Chuanwen loved doing business, he cultivated him carefully as his successor."
"Shu Qianping is the youngest daughter. Her parents and elder brothers love her very much. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is obedient and obedient. Needless to say, she has good clothes and good food. She also has many famous teachers coming to teach. This eldest lady is also very good. Because of her intelligence, she is proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she has earned the reputation of being a talented woman at a young age."
"It's a pity that things are unpredictable. King Cheng of Yan launched an army to quell the disaster, and wars were raging all over the south of the Yangtze River. In order to avoid being implicated again, Shu Dinghai could only temporarily close his business and go to Lingnan with his wife and children to avoid disaster."
"Unexpectedly, good fortune never comes in pairs, and misfortune never comes alone. Shortly after the Shu Dinghai family arrived in Lingnan, a major epidemic broke out in the area."
"At that time, the Jingnan Campaign was reaching a critical juncture. The imperial court had no spare capacity to provide disaster relief and fight against the epidemic. Most of the people infected by the epidemic died, and all the houses within hundreds of miles around were empty."
"Shu Dinghai's family could not escape the fate. Mrs. Shu fell ill first and passed away in just a few days."
"Shu Chuanwen also fell ill later, and Shu Dinghai spent all his savings on treatment, but ultimately failed to save his beloved son's life. As a result, the white-haired man gave away the black-haired man. Needless to say, he was heartbroken."
"Until the epidemic subsided and the Battle of Jingnan came to an end, and Shu Dinghai and his daughter returned to Huaiyin, their property had already been occupied by others."
"After all, there is an emperor and courtiers. How can ordinary people be reasonable? Shu Dinghai knew that he could not achieve the feat of Jingnan. He could only break his teeth and swallow blood."
"Suffering such repeated blows, Shu Dinghai became depressed and became terminally ill. He knew that he was not going to die soon, so he rushed to Luoyang before his death and entrusted Shu Qianping to the care of his friend Yue Chongshan."
"Yue Chongshan was born in the army and had a brave and righteous character. Because he offended his superiors by speaking out for justice, he was stripped of his military status and sent back to his hometown."
"Shu Dinghai was transporting goods through Luoshui and met Yue Chongshan at the dock. After talking, he became a confidant and generously donated his money on the spot to help him open a wine shop."
"Yue Chongshan was naturally grateful to Shu Dinghai. Seeing his friend dying and leaving an orphan, how could he not agree? Shu Dinghai settled the last concern on his mind and finally ran out of oil and died suddenly that night."
"Yue Chongshan helped arrange Shu Dinghai's funeral and adopted Shu Qianping as his adopted daughter. He was originally a rude military man and was not good at running a business. Fortunately, Shu Qianping learned from his family background and took the initiative to help out, and soon managed the wine shop. It is booming and has become a golden brand in every village."
