Tang Dynasty Mingyue Song Dynasty Pass

Chapter 361
Pear blossoms are like snow, grass is like smoke, and spring is on both sides of the Qinhuai River; the makeup buildings in the area are covered by water, and the pink shadows of every family shine on cicadas.

The night view of the Qinhuai River has been famous since ancient times. As the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, many literati and poets stopped here to write poems and poems, and they were full of praise.

Under the darkness of night, the water of the Qinhuai River looks even deeper. There are all kinds of exquisite painting boats floating on the river surface, with red lanterns hanging on them, floating on the river surface.Waterside pavilions are reflected in the river, and silk and bamboo are accompanied by the breeze. From the passing boats, there will be sounds of piano, singing, laughter, and punching, which is very lively.

Although there are official residences on the shore, or in some elegant buildings, there are poetry gatherings, but those are the places where scholars and ladies gather.At this time, most of the people playing on the boat are rich and powerful sons, rich merchants, etc., and some brothel singers are invited to have fun, singing and dancing, and being drunk with money.

Standing on the bow of the boat, Su Chen felt the drunkenness of Jinling people, and couldn't help but think of Tang Dynasty poet Du Mu's "Parking in the Qinhuai River", and read it lightly: "The smoke cage is cold, the water is moon cage, and the sand is caged. At night, the Qinhuai River is near the restaurant. Girls don't know the hatred of subjugated country, but across the river they still sing about flowers in the backyard."

Most of the time, in Southern Tang Dynasty, Su Chen didn't feel the sense of crisis that he was about to perish. Instead, he had the illusion of being in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Perhaps the people in Jiangnan had not experienced war for decades, and it was impossible to imagine the scene of soldiers approaching the city and the flames of war.

Although Jiangbei has fallen, and the thirteen prefectures have been included in the territory of the Song Dynasty, this does not affect the fun of the dignitaries and nobles in Jinling.

"Su Chen, the wine is already warm, and the dishes are also warm, come and eat." Peng Qingqing warmed up the wine with her own hands, while the maid Huan'er prepared the dishes.

The bottom of this food box is made of iron, with a built-in charcoal fire, and a layer of water-proof layer on the top. The food stored in the box will still be hot after an hour or two. In addition, it is summer and the weather is hot, so When it came out, it was still warm.

Hearing the sound, Su Chen walked back to the cabin of the painting boat, and sat across the bank from Peng Qingqing, while Huan'er stood beside her and served the two of them.

At this moment, Bailang is leaning on the rudder of the boat and drinking wine, while Jingyun is very excited because it is the first time to make a painting boat, and is learning how to pole pole from the boatman.

Peng Qingqing smiled at Su Chen and said: "The night view of the Qinhuai River is so beautiful. The lights on both sides of the river are brightly lit. There is no curfew for the Qiqiao Festival tonight, so there are also many tourists!"

Su Chen nodded with a smile: "It's lively when there are many people. If there is no one on both sides of the strait, it will appear deserted instead."

In his time, the commercial street of the Confucius Temple on the Qinhuai River in Jinling was crowded with people on weekends and holidays, and one had to queue for an hour for a cruise. (The author has a deep understanding of the last time!)

Peng Qingqing smiled and said, "Let's eat, I told the cook to prepare a lot of dishes."

Su Chen glanced at the dishes on the table, and they were indeed extremely rich. Since Jiangnan eats exquisite dishes, there are not many dishes in the box. It is estimated that there is only enough for the two of them to eat a few mouthfuls each, but there are many varieties , there are meat and vegetables, cold and hot, there are more than a dozen dishes.It fully shows the characteristics of refinement, elegance, delicacy and ingenuity of Southern Tang culture.

Touring the Qinhuai River at night, boating on the river, delicious food and wine, accompanied by red sleeves and fragrances in front of you, even if you don’t drink, you will be drunk.

Peng Qingqing's first romantic outing with Su Chen was on Qiqiao Festival, a day when there are folk legends about Qixi Festival romance, and Su Chen was occupied by one person, without other women around, he just felt extremely comfortable.

She filled Su Chen's wine glass, poured it for herself, and drank it to each other.

Although Su Chen's drinking capacity is average, he is always a gentleman, in front of women, he can't say no!
After drinking a few glasses of fine wine, Peng Qingqing's cheeks immediately turned bright red, and her eyes were as silky as silk, making her even more beautiful.

In the past, she was heroic and heroic, imitating men in many behaviors, but at this time, Peng Qingqing has a feminine and charming style, not as neutral and beautiful as before.

It really is "the face of a woman who pleases herself", a heroine with a tomboy-like personality, gradually revealing her daughter's shyness and tenderness, willing to change her clothes for Su Chen, and her feelings for him have grown stronger. It's getting deeper.

The pot of wine was almost bottomed out, Su Chen was a little dizzy, but Peng Qingqing's eyes became brighter the more he drank, and he didn't even look like he was enjoying himself enough.It was only then that he remembered that Peng Qingqing used to drink a lot from jars, which was better than her father's. But recently, she was concerned about the image of a girl and was strictly controlled by her father, so she didn't drink too much. Fighting wine is really tricky.

"It can't be done, if you drink any more, you'll get drunk." Su Chen directly confessed.

"This is not enough? The time is so short!"

"I really tried my best." Su Chen disarmed and subdued.

Peng Qingqing said dissatisfiedly: "I haven't had enough fun yet!"

Su Chen said helplessly: "But I feel that my limbs are a little weak."

Peng Qingqing persevered and begged: "You're a big man, you can't do it no matter what you say, and you can have fun with me for a while!"

"I can't stand it anymore."

"Just bear with it, and you can hold on for a while!"

"That's it, I'll have fun with you next time. Otherwise, I won't be able to get off the boat..." In the end, Su Chen still didn't agree to Peng Qingqing's request.

Bai Lang was drinking wine outside, but when he heard the words of tigers and wolves coming out of the cabin, he was stunned. What are these two doing in there, they are talking so blatantly!

At this time, Jing Yun seemed to have heard some conversation, and rushed over to this side, but Bailang grabbed his arm and asked, "Why are you going?"

Jing Yun said seriously: "I heard in the cabin, Mr. Su seems to say, if he dies, I'll go in and see if I can help!"

"..." Bailang was a little messed up by the wind.

At this moment, there was only a bang sound from the stern of the ship, and then the boat shook violently.

Bai Lang grabbed Jing Yun's arm with one hand, and firmly held the rudder mast with the other, stabilizing his body so as not to fall into the river.

In the cabin, the three people were stumbling around, and the cups and saucers were also scattered on the ground.

"What happened?"

Su Chen almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, Peng Qingqing held his waist with one hand, using the standard posture of a beautiful woman saving a hero.

His expression was a little uneasy, it's fine if he can't drink enough, but it's a bit embarrassing to be protected by a woman after an accident, so he shouted to the outside world with a more aggressive tone, showing a man's temper!
"I was hit by a painting boat." Jing Yun replied.

Su Chen and Peng Qingqing walked out of the cabin, and saw at the tail of the painting boat, there was a more exquisite and huge painting boat chasing after it.

There were a few servants and slaves standing on the plywood of the boat, yelling and yelling, probably saying "you don't have eyes", "how can you hold on to the boat, are you blind?" , it seems that he still wants to jump on this ship and beat people up.

Peng Qingqing didn't enjoy herself enough just now when she was half drunk, but now she was bumped into the boat and insulted in such a way, she immediately became angry, jumped over the top of the painting boat, and landed on the other party's boat, snapping Every servant slapped his mouth.
