Chang'an City, Pingkangfang, where singing and dancing, singing and dancing, night and night, here is not only a world-famous gold hole, a man's paradise, but also a microcosm of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

To say that the most famous green building in Pingkangfang, Chunfeng Building is recognized as a leader in the industry.

The top Qinglou in Pingkangfang has Chunfeng Building, Tingyu Building, Qunfang Courtyard and Lichun Courtyard, known as the four pillars of the Qinglou industry, which can be said to be four-legged and has its own merits, but after Chunfeng Lou produced a Lin Xun'er, the limelight was not two for a while, thus laying the position of Pingkangfang's leader.

When many people think of poems that describe women's beauty, they will think of Zheng Peng's poem "Gift to Xun'er Girl": "More than thirteen years of grace, cardamom tips in early February." The spring breeze is ten miles of Pingkang Road, and it is better to roll up the bead curtain. When I think of this poem, I will think of Chunfeng Building.

Although the beauty is not there, but the legend of the beauty is still circulating, many literati and go to the Chunfeng Building to listen to music, drink wine, and experience the joy of seeing the Oiran Lin Xun'er that day of the great talent Zheng Peng, maybe lucky, but also write a good poem like "Gift Xun'er Girl" that is famous all over the world, then it will become famous overnight.

Many people go to Chunfeng Lou to have fun, and some people go to Chunfeng Lou to drink to relieve boredom, and Li Linfu is one of the members who drink to relieve boredom.

After embarking on the official career, with the golden lacquer signboard of the Li clan, with his own wisdom and ability, Li Linfu has been rising to the top, and now he is a servant of the ministry, the ministry's ministry is a fat place, and it is already great to become a servant of the ministry, but Li Linfu is not satisfied, and wants to continue to climb up, I don't know why, after being promoted to the ministry, Li Linfu's rising momentum has stopped, and many officials still have a lot of complaints about Li Linfu, saying that he is too tactful.

In order to be promoted, Li Linfu worked hard, often went to the palace of the important ministers of the court to "worship the mountain", and also tried every possible way to make friends with those powerful figures, such as recruiting Zheng Peng's two cousins in Guozijian, showing favor to Concubine Wu Hui, etc., but unfortunately, pay so much, but there is no return, yesterday I sent a famous painting to Concubine Wu Hui, but I didn't expect Concubine Wu Hui to send someone back the next day, saying that it was not suitable for this style.

Needless to say, Xiao Song, who must have been at odds with him, stabbed him in the back.

The position of the crown prince Li Ying was crumbling, and he wanted to get closer to Concubine Wu Hui but was looked down upon, and under the depression in his heart, Li Linfu went to Chunfeng Building to drink stuffy wine.

"Li Gongzi, how boring it is to drink alone, what is on your mind, can you talk to the slave family?" Yang Xiaoer, who was sitting opposite the Chunfeng brand new red card, leaned forward slightly, and very elegantly poured the wine in the book again for Li Linfu.

After a few glasses of wine, Yang Xiaoer's face was flushed, her eyes were as charming as silk, and her eyes looked at Li Linfu with a temptation.

Li Linfu is from the Li Tang clan, noble birth, dignified appearance, is a rare beautiful man, or a servant of the ministry, the future is like a brocade, Yang Xiaoer was secretly happy when she saw Li Linfu, and took out twelve points of effort to take down the noble man in front of her, it is best that Li Linfu will help him redeem himself as soon as he is happy, and he will be satisfied if he can stay in the Li Mansion as a concubine.

For the women of the Qinglou, this is the best home.

Lin Xiaoer has enough confidence in herself, she is twenty-eight years old, her face is exquisite, her figure is slender, her temperament is also excellent, she is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she has learned a lot of skills from the teachers in the courtyard to wait for men, and knows how to make men happy and happy.

The movements were very elegant, the smile was very bright, and the hook was about to stretch out in his eyes, but Li Linfu was still unmoved, shook his head and said: "Some mundane affairs, it's okay, it's okay." ”

I want to go further, but there is no way to throw stones, even if there is suffering, it is not easy to say it to outsiders, let alone to a woman in a green house.

A beautiful woman takes the initiative to tell people about her feelings, just like Mars is cheap on dry firewood, and she can make a fire at any time, and if she is a caring person, most of them will take the hand of the beauty and say that she will find a quiet place to talk slowly, and then roll the sheets happily, but Li Linfu did not say anything.

Yang Xiao'er bit her red lip lightly, and a trace of loss flashed in her eyes, but she quickly cheered up and said: "Li Gongzi has a tired face, he must be busy with official business, and the slave family is proficient in massage, why don't you massage it for Li Gongzi, okay?" ”

Throwing flattering glances and talking hints had no effect, Lin Xiaoer changed her strategy and prepared to start with massage.

First concentrate on massage, slowly get up, attract with aroma and body fragrance, if you are not moved, use the "hand slip" method to tease and stay, the sisters of the same industry say that the success rate of this trick is very high.

If it was on weekdays, Li Linfu would have nodded in agreement a long time ago, and Lin Xiao'er would have been in love with me, but now his heart is very chaotic, not only did he not catch Concubine Wu Hui, but it seems that his hatred with Xiao Song has deepened, with Xiao Song's ability, it is not difficult to deal with himself, and he doesn't know what "little shoes" are waiting for him behind, and he is not interested in Yang Xiaoer's proposal at all.

"My head is a little messy, I heard that Miss Xiao'er is good at playing the piano, why don't you play a piece of music and use music to help the fun, okay?" Li Linfu said.

Yang Xiao'er was a little disappointed in her heart, and there was a trace of unwillingness in her eyes, but she walked to the guqin with a smile, her slender and white jade hand gently pressed on the strings, and said with a smile: "I don't know what music Li Gongzi wants to hear?" ”

The people who come here to play are all the masters who have spent money, Yang Xiaoer's task is to make the guests happy, everything must be hidden in his heart, in the face of Li Linfu's request, he is a little lost in his heart, but Yang Xiaoer can't refuse, and he doesn't dare to refuse. ”

"Let's have a light tune, just "Luo Fumei". Li Linfu commanded casually.

Yang Xiao'er answered, tried the sound a little, and soon played it skillfully, and the pleasant sound of the piano sounded in the box.

The prostitutes of the Tang Dynasty, most of them have a high cultural literacy, especially in terms of literature and music, the more famous the prostitutes, the higher the cultural literacy, which is the reason why so many literati in the Tang Dynasty like to go to the Qinglou, for them, going to the Qinglou is an elegant thing, if they don't go, they are either sick or come from a small place in the countryside, officials, literati, and students are mostly not confined to etiquette, often haunt the brothel Qinglou, and often use new words in glamorous poems to describe the romance of their prostitutes to show their new trend and romance.

When the prostitutes of later generations saw the guests, most of them said that they should act quickly, and they had recently swept away pornography, and then the two quickly got to the point; When the prostitutes of the Tang Dynasty saw the guests and served tea and wine, they either asked the prince if he had any good works to read recently, or said that he had learned a new song, and asked the guests if they wanted to listen to Yunyun.

Yang Xiaoer was sold to Qinglou at the age of five, she has been a beauty embryo since she was a child, and her mother (Lao Bustard) was not in a hurry to let her pick up customers, but paid a lot of money to teach her piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, especially playing the piano, which can be said to be famous in Chunfeng Building.

Under Yang Xiaoer's skillful playing, the sound of the piano is sometimes soothing like a flowing spring, sometimes it is as sharp as a waterfall, sometimes it is crisp like a pearl falling on a jade plate, sometimes it is low back like a whisper, melodious and beautiful, when the last note falls, the box of Youda seems to be quiet all of a sudden.

It's just that he is in a bad mood, Li Linfu is still very personable, and when he put down the teacup in his hand and was about to applaud, someone outside the door suddenly said loudly: "Good song, good song "Luo Fumei", Xiao'er's piano skills are becoming more and more exquisite." ”

Yang Xiao'er was a little surprised, she didn't expect someone to evaluate herself outside the door, and she didn't know if it was herself and her benefactor, so she didn't know what to say for a while, but Li Linfu on the side frowned, and said with some displeasure: "Miss Xiao'er has let a certain bag, if you want to hear Miss Xiao'er play the piano, let's do it another day." ”

Li Linfu's mood was a little unhappy, he spent his wallet on Yang Xiaoer, playing a song and coaxing outsiders, no one plugged his ears with donkey hair, just listened to it, disturbing others to have fun, it was simply annoying.

This is a polite thing, change to a bad-tempered guest, just throw a wine glass, if you are in a bad mood, maybe go out and grab him and give him a few slaps.

It's a pity that Li Linfu's politeness was useless, with a "creak", the door of the box was pushed open, and a tall and gorgeously dressed person entered uninvited, and said to Li Linfu with a smile: "Li Gongzi, I haven't seen you for a while, how are you doing lately?" ”

The Tang Dynasty has an open style, and it is very common for literati, officials, and aristocrats to go to the Qinglou, but it is necessary to pay attention to the influence, for example, it is rare to call the other party's official position in the Qinglou.

"Bold, whoever let you in, get out." Li Linfu said impatiently.

Failed to hug his thighs, Li Linfu was in a very bad mood, and when he saw someone he didn't know breaking into his box, he blackened his face on the spot, and immediately ordered to expel the customer.

"How can you say that it is also an acquaintance, Li Gongzi is not very righteous to his old friend like this, right?" The person said with a smile.

Old friends?

Li Linfu couldn't help but shake his head, as if he wanted to shake off the wine, looking at the person in front of him, he felt very familiar at first, and thought for a while before he came up: "It's you?" What's the point of looking for so-and-so? ”

finally recognized it, the person in front of him was called Zhao Changping, and he was from Concubine Li's side.

When Li Longji was also the king of Linzi, he served as a driver in Luzhou during the second year of Jinglong (708) to four years (710), and saw the beautiful and moving, able to sing and dance Zhao in the local area, and liked it very much, so he accepted it as a side room, and was very favored for a while, after ascending the throne, in the first month of the third year of Kaiyuan (715), Li Ying, who was nine years old at the time, was made the crown prince, and Zhao Lifei's father and brother were also officials in the court, and Zhao Lifei relied on two brothers, one was the elder brother Zhao Changnu, and the other was Zhao Changping in front of him.

Zhao Changnu relied on being the prince's uncle, bullying people, and the people, and was finally killed by the vicious Li Chaoyin ordered to be killed with a cane, many people regard Zhao Changnu's death as the beginning of Zhao Life's fall from grace, and Zhao Changnu was beaten together Zhao Changping, who is Zhao Life's cousin, Zhao Changping is different from the arrogant cousin Zhao Changnu, shrewd and low-key, Zhao Lifei wanted to seek an official for him, but Zhao Changping politely refused, saying that he was not the material to be an official, and he could cause trouble if he was an official, and he just wanted to be a businessman, and finally Zhao Lifei was as he wished.

After Concubine Li fell out of favor, especially after Zhao Changnu was killed, the people of the Zhao family became very low-key, but they didn't expect Zhao Changping, who had not shown up for a long time, to suddenly appear in front of him.

Li Linfu served as the prince Zhongyun and the prince Yude, and after Zhao Changping became a businessman, he took care of a lot of properties for the prince, and sent a large amount of money to the East Palace every year for the prince Li Ying to expand his network resources, and the two sides also had a lot of intersections, but they hadn't seen each other for too long, and they drank some wine and didn't recognize them for a while.

Zhao Changping sat down, and in response to Li Linfu's question, he just smiled and said nothing.

Li Linfu hesitated for a moment, waved his hand lightly, Yang Xiao'er understood, and withdrew from the box with interest, and closed the door of the wing room for the two of them.

The crown prince is position is a little unstable, but the prince is still the prince, because many ministers think that the crown prince Li Ying is the emperor's son or the eldest son, and according to the ancient precepts, he should be a prince, which is also the reason why Li Ying shook and did not fall, Li Linfu did not dare to openly refuse the prince, and said that he had just failed to hold Concubine Wu Hui's thigh.

"Brother Changping, I haven't seen you for a while, I almost can't recognize it, I didn't expect to meet here, fate, drink." Li Linfu smiled and poured wine for Zhao Changping.

"How can you let Li Shilang pour wine, I can't stand it, I can't stand it." Zhao Changping hurriedly excused himself.

Li Linfu resolutely poured the wine and said with a smile: "This is not a public court, nor a class room, just a place to have fun, there is no Li Zhilang, there is no uncle of the prince, only Li Gongzi and Zhao Gongzi, come, I will give you a glass." ”

"Refreshing, a certain first to do it as a respect." Zhao Changping smiled indifferently and drank all the wine in the cup.

The two drank three glasses in a row, and when they saw that the wine jug was empty, Li Linfu asked someone to bring new wine, and ordered his entourage to guard the door, while pouring wine for Zhao Changping, he pretended to ask casually: "Brother Changping, it's difficult to see you on weekdays, this time I find so-and-so, I don't know what's going on?" ”

The famous paintings sent were returned, did the prince receive the news? Is this time to knock yourself, or to force yourself to take a stand?

Zhao Changping looked left and right, took out something from his sleeve, and gently pushed it in front of Li Linfu.

Li Linfu opened it with some confusion and saw that it was a counter ticket, and then looked at the amount on it and couldn't help but shrink his pupils: 10,000 taels of gold.

"It's... What does this mean? Li Linfu took a deep breath and put the huge ticket back in front of Zhao Changping.

"The above means, I want Li Gong to impeach a person."

No need to ask, it must be the crown prince Li Ying, Li Linfu said cautiously: "If you have something to order, they are all your own people, so it's too foreign, by the way, I don't know who the prince wants to impeach?" ”

Zhao Changping didn't speak, dipped his fingers in the wine glass, and wrote the word "Zheng" on the desktop, Li Linfu's pupils shrank, and he pointed to the west with some confusion, while Zhao Changping nodded seriously.

"This... This..."Li Linfu said with an embarrassed face: "This matter is not easy to handle, and I ask the prince to invite another Gao Ming." ”

Li Linfu not only knew the grievances and conflicts between the two sides, but also knew that Zheng Peng was powerful in Tubo and his prestige in the court was rising, especially after eliminating the great trouble of Tubo, the limelight was unmatched for a while, and the East Palace repeatedly hoped to have a good relationship with the people of Zheng Mansion, but the people of Zheng Mansion did not eat hard and soft, and the relationship between the two sides was very stiff, Zheng Peng had already returned to Beijing on the way to accept the reward, and the prince was afraid that Zheng Peng would fall to Concubine Wu Hui's side, so that Concubine Wu Hui and King Shou would have one more helper in vain, and strike first?

No matter how stupid Li Linfu is, he will not touch Zheng Peng at this time, who doesn't know that Li Longji favors him.

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse first" Zhao Changping took out a file from his sleeve and gently pushed it in front of Li Linfu: "Li Gongzi will talk about it after reading this file." ”
