The Three Masters in Brocade Clothes of Daming Gate

Lan Xishu and his house moved forward slowly with the flow of people entering the city. Looking up at the bustling Shence Gate, the north gate of Nanjing City, it seemed like a world away. In the Nanjing city in front of you, under the afterglow of the mighty sunset, the outer urn of the Shence Gate in the north of the city was tall and majestic. , the majestic treasures also carry the prosperous background of the land of gold and powder in the Six Dynasties. Although the imperial capital moved to Beijing, the imperial capital's momentum has not diminished.

Finally, the last group entered the city. Soldiers shouted on the upper gate of the city gate. The heavy and thick iron-clad city gate creaked shut. The setting sun reflected its last brilliance on the big copper nails. The image reminded him of many years ago at dusk, when the guards were busy going back and forth, Lan Xishu was filled with emotion.

Lan Xishu couldn't go back to the old house in the west of the city. Although Yang Shiqi and Erniang lived in Beijing, the eldest lady was still in the old house, and the old housekeeper, Uncle Yang, had a dozen or so girls.

Lan Xishu had no feelings for that house, so he didn't plan to go back at all, and he also explained the reason for the mission that he should not go back to the house without authorization.

There were not many clues in Lan Xishu's mind, but there was a clue. He and his house crossed half of Nanjing City, and went straight to an inn near the Qinhuai River. [

It’s fine to bargain with Lan Xishu on the house and not go back to the old house, but he’s going to visit Aunt Feng in Miaoqian Lane, Aunt Feng is the mouse’s mother, and this Lan Xishu agrees, visiting Aunt Feng for the mouse is in his plan. It just has to be stabilized.

Spring Leaf Inn is a newly opened small inn. Relatively speaking, the small inn is much larger than those ordinary inns in other places.It is still a few streets and alleys away from the bustling Qinhuai River where there are many fireworks and brothels, but Qingyanlou, a famous official prostitute building with cornices and glazed tiles, can be clearly seen from a distance. It is not a rich and wealthy area where rich people gather, but it is adjacent to some rouge and gouache workshops. There are many people coming and going, but there are no big figures settled nearby. Lan Xishu wandered around a little and chose this Spring Leaf Inn, which is convenient to get in and out.

More importantly, this inn has just sent out a wave, and there are not many guests.

A fat woman in her late forties in a fat green shirt with eight skirts and a hairpin full of pearls and emeralds chattered endlessly about the benefits of living in the Spring Leaf Inn. The book led the house and went upstairs behind the fat woman. When she heard that Lan Xishu liked a quiet room facing the street, the fat woman specially gave Lan Xi a room on the east side. It was at the corner of the alley, and both sides had a wide view. , even some bell and drum towers can be seen farther away.

Lan Xishu didn't want to talk too much with this woman, once she got to know her well, this kind of woman's words could carry a lot of traffic, and her ears were rarely quiet.

The last blush faded in the western sky, and Nanjing used lights to mark which places to play and play. The line of Qinhuai River was shining brightly.

"Guest officer, if you're not satisfied, just say it. I just left today, and there's another one to the west." The fat woman patted her brocade handkerchief and beamed at Lan Xishu. Lan Xishu's calmness made her feel that the visitor hadn't missed her. A country bumpkin from the outside world can't be sloppy in entertaining, so Lan Xishu doesn't show satisfaction for a moment, she just works hard to cater for him.

"Hmm! It's fairly clean!" Lan Xi looked around the room with brand new tables, chairs and benches.

Now that she was curious and ran behind the screen, Lan Xishu told her not to speak, so she really stayed silent. She knew that these business women were smart, and they were good at fooling foreigners by reading their words and expressions.

The two men put Lan Xishu's bag and baggage away, and the fat woman flicked the brocade handkerchief, and they all bowed out stiffly.

"Don't worry, the inn we just built doesn't dare to be sloppy when we use it. The guest officer has chosen the right place." Lan Xishu's indifference made the high-spirited fat woman lose interest, but she knew it and told a young man Served with hot water, went out.

The footsteps of a rough man came from the corner of the stairs, and he and the fat woman whispered a few words and went downstairs together.

"The fat lady is so talkative!

The house habitually checks the entrance every time it arrives in a new environment. The door on the east side is raised and turned over. It is an alley, looking very deep, with small households on both sides, and the lanterns are only hung in front of their own doors. The whole deep alley looks a little dark. When the houses are leaning forward, although the households are not big, But in and out is no problem.And the eaves on the first floor are hindered by footfall, eh!very nice.

The south side is open from left to right, the door is slightly larger, Lanxi's book is upright, creaking and twisting softly, the eyes are full of brilliance, and all kinds of lanterns are lit in front of the rich and high-rise buildings, and the dense and gorgeous lights pass through the water of the Qinhuai River The reflection makes this area very eye-catching at night. This light belt extends far away with the trend of the Qinhuai River. You can smell the soft sound of silk and bamboo, and even see some floating figures dancing on the railing where the lights are particularly bright. swagger.

This is completely different from the prosperity of Beijing. The south is gentle and meandering, and the north is magnificent and domineering. Not only the human feelings and sophistication are shown, but also the landscape architecture is reflected. The north is a land of heroes, and the south is a gentle town.

The strong smell of makeup makes Ye Feng even fragrant and exciting.

On the issue of going to bed first or going out for a walk first, Lan Xishu and the house had a disagreement. After a long absence in Nanjing, the house couldn’t wait to go out for a walk, but Lan Xishu was different. Before it was dark, he was restless, and the burden scissors hammer!Walking first, the house was overjoyed, Lan Xishu had no choice but to endure it, and before going out, he pressed the house on the bed and resisted gently before giving up.

As soon as I went down the stairs, I saw a fat woman with a flattering face, swinging her sleeves and swaying her hips, coming in next to a short-bearded man. This man had a serious face, a Zhuge scarf on his head, and a lake silk Taoist robe. He walked with a straight waist and just listened The fat woman walked face to face with Lan Xishu without saying a word. [

He didn't pay much attention to Lan Xi and only raised his eyelids, and the two passed by.

The fat woman gave Lan Xishu a flattering smile, the enthusiasm just now was greatly cooled by this man.

Lan Xishu didn't care about the temperature of the fat woman. This middle-aged man attracted his attention. This is an official who is not young and has professional habits. Lan Xishu can judge a thing or two from the way this person walks. People can tell from their demeanor and temperament. Even if they have a lot of money, they always keep their eyes low and humble before others. Only officials, especially those who have been in high positions for a long time, have an air of superiority in their bones. Officials pay more attention to official etiquette and official steps than ordinary people. , Even in a wretched place, she naturally wears a dignified face. The steady official step just walked to the stairs, and together with Lian Long, a gorgeous woman came out. It seemed that she had been waiting for a long time. Jiao Chen came towards the man, the breast enlargement rubbed on the man for a while, the man said something with his face, the woman put on her veil and smiled shyly.

The fat woman withdrew, and the woman stuck to the man instead, and the two went upstairs with their heads bowed and whispering.

In the dark, Lan Xishu saw a man turning his face around the corner, so he quickly dodged. He walked a step ahead of the house, and a man shouted rudely and a woman sobbed softly from outside.
