Clam Pearl

Chapter 7

Hearing the elder's order, Gu Maochang and the others couldn't bear it for a long time, they all stood up and were about to leave together, but they didn't want to, but someone spoke again in the room next to them, with a strong sarcasm and bitterness in their voice:

"Hmph... Mr. Cao is a literati leader, a great Confucian in the world, how can he care about a warrior? It's not the first time a warrior has beaten someone in the court. Mr. Cao won't take it to heart."

This gentleman's voice fell, and no one in the room around him roared with laughter, but there was a suffocated laughter. Presumably, the three provinces and six ministries, most of them are literati who came from pens, and Mr. Gu's three-handed ax is just that, Lao Tzu , Xiaozi, Danzi's, but they really can't quarrel with those who play with words, and they become angry and beat people, I'm afraid they were forced to rush.

Gu Maochang was furious, and was about to throw something to beat him. Gu Zhao held up the wine glass he was about to drop, raised his hand and slapped Gu Maochang on the forehead. After being beaten, he was startled, but suppressed a wave of anger in his heart.

Houbai and Xiahouyu are really embarrassed. It seems that their father didn't speak up and become friends in this quarrel.Speaking of it, this is also their consistent attitude. As literati, they are not good at going against the literati of the whole court. In private, although they have a good relationship, they dare not shout out loudly that we belong to the faction of warriors. Reckless words.

Today's matter is probably still an attitude of onlookers, or trying to persuade them to make peace, or just being as usual.

The scholars over there tossed about for a while, and then they all went out together, paid the bill and left.

Gu Zhao stood up, opened the window and looked at the group of commoner scholars below, saying goodbye to each other with cumbersome etiquette, you come and go, it's so lively.

There was a scholar wearing a black turban, standing on the steps smiling to see off a friend, listening to his voice, it was the man who spoke sharply but hit the nail on the head.

Judging by his appearance, this person is only in his early twenties, and his face cannot be seen from the top of his head, but judging by his demeanor, he is extremely hypocritical.Speaking of this, it is Gu Zhao who sees people with colored glasses.

The group of scholars all called this Wutoujin Brother Wei, and respected him very much, even a little flattering, as if they were headed by him.The scholar was wearing plain clothes and trousers like his friends, but when he was walking, a pair of high-quality satin shoes with exquisite workmanship were exposed under his robe.

After seeing off his best friend, the black turban also got into a silk covered cart pulled by mules.

Only then did Gu Zhao turn around, looking at the pouting Gu Maochang who was still angry, smiled and shook his head: "What is Xiao Si going to argue about? Go jumping over there to argue that Big Brother didn't hit people with pancakes?"

Hou Bai and the others were astonished, and then laughed, thinking that the little uncle's words were very interesting.

Gu Zhao didn't say any more, but took the lead and went downstairs. This is Shangjing. Although the new dynasty has not been in power for many years, the style of the people in Shangjing has come out, talking about royal meals and ministers' administration.It was the most boring thing to quarrel in the past. Looking at the style of the fourth child, I am afraid that he did not cause trouble for Jing Zhaoyin.

The group settled accounts, Gu Zhao is the elder, so naturally he paid for it, Gu Maochang was angry, and had forgotten that when he came out, his mother gave him [-] Guan.

Passing through the busy city, the mule cart drove slowly, and came to a place called: the south bank of Lianhu Lake.After getting out of the car, some young servants went down and took a pole from a small rocky pier by the lake. There was an iron hook on the pole. The two young servants hooked the iron hook on a colorfully decorated seven treasure flower boat to the shore. On the side, an old slave on the boat took the pedals and placed them on the bow. Gu Maochang stepped back to let Gu Zhao get on first, and he even stretched out his hand to support him.

The old slave was a little curious, because in the past, the young man was always the first to board the boat, so he couldn't help but look at Gu Zhao more.Gu Maochang was angry, so he gave the old slave a hard look, which made the old slave tremble with fright, which shows how domineering this guy is usually.

After getting on the boat, Gu Zhao raised his eyes and looked around. At this time, the sun was still shining, and those private transactions were leaning against the shore, not as confident as they were at night.The lake is not big, and there are prostitute houses and flower houses around the lake. There are thirty or twenty boats in the lake, with seven treasures, ten colors, double fish, and canary styles, all of which are colorful and incomparably gorgeous.But now it is daytime, the sun is bright, and the color of the silk flowers on the flower boat is a bit old. Maybe, at night, when the lanterns are turned on, the lights here will be bright, and they will be fresh.

Gu Maochang looked at Gu Zhao blankly, and couldn't help but feel better, so he showed off: "Uncle Seven, our boat is the biggest one on this lake. The mother here is familiar with me. What kind of tune does the little uncle like? In other words, everything is complete, ahahaha..."

Poor brother, such a wise and mighty person, but raised a two hundred and five. He was still angry just now, but in a blink of an eye, the spring flowers are blooming, and a hundred flowers are blooming.

Seeing that Gu Maochang was angry, Xia Houyu and Hou Bai also made fun together and said some interesting things. From this point, it can be seen that Gu Maochang's life is regarded as the little leader of this dandy group. It stands to reason that he is not smart. There may be more cases where people are used as human shields.

Several people boarded the boat, and there was a young servant in the flower boat who laid out mats with nimble hands and feet. The four corners of the mats were pressed with copper lotus flowers. In front of the mats were four small tables with short legs. After a while, on the other side of the lake, a small boat was rowed to transport a little girl who hadn't opened yet onto the boat. After a while, there were pipa prostitutes, konghou prostitutes, and Sheng prostitutes on the bow of the boat. While blowing, playing, playing and singing, another young prostitute danced her sleeves slowly.

"At this time, it's too early. Many prostitutes don't do business. Besides, my mother doesn't allow me to take my little uncle on a night tour..." Gu Maochang took a bite of the fruit, spat the skin into the water and said with a trace of breathlessness: " I'm not allowed to go either."

Gu Zhao laughed, and patted the top of his head with his hands: "It's just right if you don't go, and when you grow up, naturally no one will care about you."

Gu Maochang was not afraid of Gu Zhao, and squinted a little unconvinced: "Little uncle is one year younger than me."

Gu Zhao just laughed, he actually didn't like the life of the ancients, it was very monotonous.

But most of the greatest entertainment for men in ancient times was inseparable from these prostitutes. There are so many little girls whose youngest is only eleven or twelve years old. Gu Zhao can't accept it anyway. But he is very respectful, he can come and stay as he pleases, they are called folk artists.

Although he didn't like it in his heart, Gu Zhao didn't bring it out. He always wanted to follow the crowd.There is Mr. Yu Geng who is always silent beside him, he is eating a purple grape peeled for him by a young prostitute with a look of enjoyment, and he eats it while eating, and he looks like an old salty ghost look.

This is the reader.

In a blink of an eye, twilight fell, and the night gradually darkened. At the four corners of Shangjing, the drums and gongs sounded, and the four gates of the outer city were slowly closed. Suddenly, Shangjing entered a self-enclosed state. This feeling is extremely strange, like, a person, being trapped Locked up in a private place, the behavior will be free and easy, and it will become crazy.

The flower boats on the lake slowly lined up and moved slowly around the shore of the lake. Countless music twisted together to form the unique tone of this lotus lake.

There are prostitutes who open the windows, railings, and flower stands of flower houses...Maikos, music prostitutes, all stand there to attract customers. Naturally, these are just inferior flower girls. If you want to see that everyone, you need to post a post Please, most of the famous flower girls are dignified, they have the right to choose what they want, and they are more free. If you don’t make an appointment, you won’t be able to see them.

The surrounding was very noisy, with flower boats coming and going, Gu Zhao's visual senses were a little confused. He only heard Houbai tell Xia Houyu some embarrassing things and jokes about officials. Gu Zhao laughed when he heard it, but felt that the Feiyanzi was not as lively as when we first met. He listened silently and did not express his opinion.

When the second generation of officials spoke, the court was also involved inside and outside the words, and every word was inseparable from the privacy of the family of the senior officials above the third rank. There was a sense of complacency inside and outside the words. Gu Zhao sincerely felt that they regarded themselves as bumpkins. Well, he's just a bumpkin, everything he hears is new and cute.

Speaking of this, I have to say that Gu Maochang is a visual animal with a really funny temper. His friends and people he likes are all handsome people with good character and appearance. Even Mr. Yu Geng , those are very elegant and amiable people, even though they come to this flower shop, it is normal to show their ugly faces, aren't many of these scholars like this?

Gu Maochang is a person who doesn't wear clothes that are not pretty when he is young. It is said that when he was a child, the nanny was not good-looking, and he refused to suck the milk.

The young people got together, so they naturally picked up the posts, and chose a few well-known people on the bank to board the flower boat. The strange thing here is that it is not like the ones written in those idle books that Gu Zhao used to read... The famous prostitutes are very popular. Bullish, if you say turn your face, you will turn your face, if you say you will throw yourself into the river, you will throw yourself into the river.

Look at the appearance, each of them has really good looks and is said to be famous, but each of them has a good personality, they do whatever they are called, they speak softly, and their eyes shine with undeniable admiration , is full of flattery.

In fact, Gu Zhao may not have the self-consciousness of the children of high-ranking cadres. To put it bluntly, all of them are descendants of high-ranking officials. We have been friends for several lifetimes, and His Majesty is also very face-saving. Otherwise, would that old Gu Yan dare to hit people with pancakes?It can be seen how domineering that guy is in his daily life.

In addition, these three people are well-known in the capital for being good at playing and making trouble, they are high-class young men with attitude, and it is natural for prostitutes to like them.

Gu Zhao looked around and curled his lips in his heart. Although he would never love that girl, but look at this thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl who only stared at a plate of snacks and didn't look at him at all. Did you see it?

Seeing Gu Zhao pouted, Hou Bai and Xia Houyu looked at each other, then smiled and shook their heads, they didn't know how much they liked Gu Zhao, what a pity!It's a pity that such a good person can't have a good relationship with each other, and they are forced to be a generation older than them. With this uncle, it is inevitable to abide by etiquette, and I feel regretful in my heart.

After sighing in their hearts, they thought of some fairly innocent ways to play, anyway, the little uncle seemed to have a very good temper, and everything seemed new, so let's play tricks.They found 24 copper coins, with red on one side and green on the other side. The copper coins have numbers, according to the clothes they wear, the jade pendants they wear, and the ages. In this way, the amount of green is correct, ranging from drinking one cup to split cups, to drinking eight cups.These few people are not interested in poetry and songs at all, so the drinking order is also the kind that is carefree.

In a blink of an eye, the two jugs of wine went down, feeling drunk, Gu Maochang took off his shirt, and performed drumming skills on the boat. After his performance, the man named Feiyanzi told everyone a few jokes, and Gu Zhao also said Some southern customs are very popular, this group of people are having a good time, it should be Mr. Yu Geng's turn, but today, this gentleman suddenly stopped talking.

Gu Maochang called him twice, but he ignored him, and only pretended to listen intently. From a small flower shop that happened to cross beside him, some familiar and annoying voices came intermittently.

Gu Maochang waved his hand, the prostitutes stopped playing, just for a moment, the sound of quarrels and debates in the boat came to the ears, there were a few Confucian scholars on the boat, and they were talking about the recent clothes in the capital that were very lively of a message.

Today, it's time to start the imperial examination, so let's select a scholar, but there is a person Gu Maochang and the others are very familiar with in the flower shop, and he is also giving a speech here at the moment. It is none other than that person. A black turban surnamed Wei.
