079 Yuan Shao
When I first arrived in Luoyang, everything was fresh, even the armor and weapons sent by Liu Yan Gao Fei felt bright, whether it was workmanship or appearance, it was stronger than the ordinary Han army I don't know how many times, after all, it was the guard of the palace, and he couldn't lose the majesty of the royal family.
Gao Fei asked people to sort out everything, and then took Zhao Yun and Jia Xu out of the barracks, and the three of them rode horses together, and then went out of the city from the upper west gate, circled around the periphery of the capital, and then entered from the upper west gate again, walked in the various streets and markets in the city, and felt the charm of the ancient city of Luoyang, the capital of Han.
Luoyang City is backed by the mountain, facing the Luohe River, and the terrain is very dangerous. It was originally a part of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and the west of the Western Zhou Dynasty became the royal city, and the east of the Qianshui was called the lower capital, that is, the suburbs of the royal city, and the current capital was developed on the basis of the lower capital. In addition, Gyeonggi has 12 gates, 4 gates on the south wall, 2 gates on the north wall, and 3 gates on the east and west walls. Among them, the Great Xia Gate is the largest, with three door openings, and the other doors have only one door opening.
The Great Xia Gate is the north out of the city gate, close to the North Palace, and it is magnificent and magnificent. The streets leading to the gates are north-south and east-west. Due to the asymmetry of the city gates, there are many "D" and "ten" shaped streets, the longest street is up to 3 kilometers, but the section between the two intersections is generally 500 meters long, and the longest is not more than 1.5 kilometers.
The streets are generally 40 meters wide and divided into three parallel roads, separated by earthen walls, with the middle one called the "Godochi" and intended for the emperor and high-ranking officials. Broadly speaking, there are five main roads in the east-west and north-south directions, each named after its own gate. The main roads in the north-south direction include "Kaiyangmen Street", "Pingchengmen Street", "Xiaoyuanmen Street", "Jinmen Street" and "Gumen Street"; The main roads in the east-west direction include "Shangdongmen Street", "Zhongdongmen Street", "Shangximen Street", "Yongmen Street", and "Yangmen-Guangyangmen Street".
The area divided by these main roads is the residential area and the market, and most of the dignitaries and nobles lived in the upper east gate, which is called Buguangli and Yongheli, because it is close to both Dongdemi Avenue and Beigong. The northeast corner of the city is Taicang and Wuku to the east of the Gumen, the southeast corner of the south corner of the gate to the north of the Taiwei Mansion, Sikong Mansion and Situ Mansion, and the northwest corner of the West Gate to the north of the Royal Forbidden Garden Haolong Garden, all of which are located in the area with convenient transportation.
In addition, Luoyang has three famous cities, namely Jinshi, Mashi and Nanshi. The gold market is in the southwest of Beigong, the horse market is on the main road outside the Middle East Gate, and the gold market is symmetrical from east to west, while the south market is on the bank of the Luo River in the south of the city, located on the main road outside the Jinmen, echoing with the north and south of the gold market. The three cities all occupy advantageous geographical advantages, and commerce is prosperous, "ships and cars are peddlers in all directions, and abandoned dwellings are stored, and they are full of capitals".
When Gao Fei took Zhao Yun and Jia Xu to roughly complete a tour of Luoyang City, the sky had already darkened, and the three of them rode back to the barracks. During the day, Luoyang City is very noisy, people come and go, and the river is endless, but when it comes to the twilight, the whole Luoyang City gives people a different kind of tranquility, only a few restaurants are lit up.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the barracks, Zhao Yun pointed to the person standing there in the twilight and said to Gao Fei: "Lord, it's Cao Cao." ”
Gao Fei fixed his eyes and saw that it was Cao Cao, only to see Cao Cao wearing a wide robe, with his arms crossed, standing straight at the gate of the barracks, he waved his hand at Cao Cao on horseback, and immediately shouted: "Brother Mengde!" ”
Cao Cao automatically lowered his arms, took two steps forward, and said with a happy face: "Brother Ziyu, brother has been waiting for you here for a long time." ”
Gao Fei turned over and dismounted, threw the reins of the horse to the soldiers guarding the barracks, walked to Cao Cao's side, and said slightly apologetically: "I really don't want to let Brother Meng De wait here for a long time." ”
Cao Cao said: "What are our brothers polite, the virtuous brother hasn't eaten yet, today the virtuous brother has arrived in this Gyeonggi important place, and he will do his best to be a landlord for his brother, and I invite the virtuous brother to Baiyun Pavilion to have a good meal." ”
It was not the first time that Gao Fei of Baiyun Pavilion had heard of it, he had heard Zuo Feng mention it three or four times, and when he heard Cao Cao mention it again, he asked, "Is Baiyun Pavilion very famous?" ”
Cao Cao stretched out his hand that was blown by the cold wind, grabbed Gao Fei's slightly warm hand, and said happily: "Whether you are famous or not, you will know when you go in a while." I've made a place there, let's go now. ”
Gao Fei didn't push back, after all, he hadn't seen Cao Cao for nearly a month, and when he saw it at this time, he naturally wanted to celebrate, and immediately said to Zhao Yun and Jia Xu: "You guys go back to the camp for the time being, let Pei Yuanshao make a few good dishes, and comfort the five internal organs temple for my brothers, I will go out with General Cao, and you will be busy with your own tonight." ”
Zhao Yun and Jia Xu said in unison: "No! ”
Cao Cao summoned someone to bring a horse, and rode out into the night with Gao Fei.
Baiyun Pavilion is in the east of the city, and Cao Cao kept talking to Gao Fei along the way, explaining the origin of Baiyun Pavilion. It turns out that this Baiyun Pavilion is really unusual, Baiyun Pavilion is a comprehensive service place integrating restaurants, inns, and brothels, and the boss of the background is actually He Jin, the general of the dynasty. He Jin opened the Baiyun Pavilion, all the officials in Gyeonggi, there is no face, plus the Baiyun Pavilion whether it is eating, drinking, or using is carefully selected, even the little guy who serves tea and water is the person who has participated in the selection of show girls in the imperial court, and the finale is the beauties who look like fairies.
Gao Fei really opened his eyes this time, before he came to Baiyun Pavilion, he had already seen an endless stream of people, those people of all shapes and shapes flocked to him, each dressed was very bright, and the surrounding was brightly lit by Baiyun Pavilion. However, unlike ordinary brothels, there were not beautiful women waving their sleeves standing at the door, but armorers wearing armor all over their bodies and holding halberds, and each armorer lined up outside the door of Baiyun Pavilion in good spirits.
"Brother Xian, Baiyun Pavilion is a must in Gyeonggi, anyone who comes to Gyeonggi, if they have not been to Baiyun Pavilion, it is equivalent to not coming to Gyeonggi. Brother Xian, let's get off the horse, it's too late, I'm afraid someone can't wait. Cao Cao reined in the horse, turned over and dismounted, and said to Gao Fei.
Gao Fei jumped off the horse and said to Cao Cao: "Brother Mengde, listening to your words, it seems that there are still people waiting for me?" ”
Cao Cao patted his head lightly and said with a smile: "Look at my memory, I forgot to tell you, today I also invited Yuan Benchu, he and I have been close friends since childhood, and he also wants to meet you." ”
"Yuan Shao?" Goofy asked in surprise.
"Yes, that's him, let's go, let's go in."
Gao Fei and Cao Cao handed the horses to the guards guarding the gate, and the guards gave the two men a sign and led the horses to the stables behind the White Cloud Pavilion, while Gao Fei and Cao Cao entered the White Cloud Pavilion together.
As soon as he entered the Baiyun Pavilion, Gao Fei was stunned there, the pure aroma of wine came to his face, and the hall was full of guests, and there were no empty seats. There is a stage directly opposite the Baiyun Pavilion, the stage is in the innermost part of the hall, there are ten beautiful women dancing gracefully, there is a gauze tent on the left and right sides of the stage, and behind the gauze tent are musicians playing and playing. Light singing and dancing, wonderful music and good music, the two form a perfect unity, so that those guests who are dining are immersed in this song and dance, what is beautiful and delicious, Gao Fei is really seen.
Cao Cao saw Gao Fei stunned at the door, so he smiled and said, "The first time I came here, my expression was similar to yours." Come upstairs with me, I'm afraid that Yuan Shao will be in a hurry at this time. ”
As the words fell, Cao Cao greeted each other with acquaintances in the hall, and walked towards the stairs with Gao Fei.
Baiyun Pavilion is three floors high, the lowest floor is the hall, the second floor is a private room, and the third floor belongs to the kind of VIP private room, and the decoration is more luxurious than the first floor.
When they reached the top floor, as soon as the maid standing at the top of the stairs saw Cao Cao, she hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "General Cao, you are here, Lord Yuan has come out to urge several times, you can go in quickly." ”
Cao Cao smiled, turned his head to Gao Fei and said, "Brother Xian, come with me!" ”
Gao Fei followed Cao Cao to a room, looked up and saw the words "Winter Warmth" written on the door, and then saw Cao Cao push open the door of the room, there was only one person in the huge room, and as soon as the person saw the door open, he stood up.
"Mengde, why are you so late?" The man spoke first, then glanced at Gao Fei behind Cao Cao, and immediately asked, "This is the newly appointed Yulin Zhonglang General Gao Ziyu, right?" ”
Cao Cao nodded, and hurriedly introduced Gao Fei: "Brother Xian, this is Yuan Benchu, the current captain of Si Li, he is my best friend, how close you are." ”
Gao Fei first looked at Yuan Shao, and saw that Yuan Shao was in his thirties, with shoulder-length hair that was shiny and moving, a slightly thin face, surprisingly handsome facial features, a high nose and thin lips, and the most special thing was the eyes, the corners of the eyes were thin and long, and the eyes were cold and bright, matched together, there was an indescribable specialness, and his casual posture could show a natural elegance but with an aristocratic atmosphere.
After he looked at it, he didn't find that Yuan Shao was unruly, which was very different from the Yuan Shu he had seen before, and there was a sense of approachability in his gestures. He arched his hand towards Yuan Shao and said: "Flying high under the Xia, Ziyu, I have seen Lord Yuan, I have heard of Lord Yuan's name for a long time, and when I see it today, I am really fortunate to have three lives!" ”
Yuan Shao walked to Gao Fei's side with a smile, stretched out his hand and grabbed Gao Fei's hand, grabbed Cao Cao's with the other hand, took the two to the wine table and sat down, and then said: "Since General Gao is a friend of Meng De, that is, my Yuan Benchu's friend, we are not in the court now, we don't need to be so restrained, if Brother Gao Xian doesn't dislike it, just call me Brother Benchu." ”
When Gao Fei heard Yuan Shao's words, he was indeed very relieved, thinking that Yuan Shao was born in a family, but his words and deeds were very different from his half-brother Yuan Shu, which always gave people a sense of intimacy. He immediately responded: "Since this is the case, then you are welcome, and I will take the liberty of calling Brother Ben in the future." ”
"Hahaha, what's not presumptuous, just call it. Come on, come on, Brother Benchu, Brother Ziyu Xian, let's drink this cup first, and then talk about it slowly. Cao Cao smiled and raised his wine glass and said loudly.
Gao Fei and Yuan Shao raised their glasses at the same time, touched Cao Cao's wine glass, and then the three of them drank it all.
