Bai Ze kept doing nothing, disguised himself as Ouyang Mu, and entered Suiyang City at night. Now that the national war in the north has started, and the Song Dynasty has a curfew, Bai Ze found Xiaoman's settled inn in the dark, and spent the whole night speechless.
The next day, Bai Ze asked Xiaoman to inquire about the whereabouts of a person in Suiyang for him, while he tidied up, found a bejeweled coquettish spirit sword from the ancient ring in his hand, slung it around his waist, and went straight to the sky. Take the moon tower and leave.
This Blue Sky and Moon Tower is the Red Tower where the most beautiful lady of the Song Dynasty, Li Shishi, lived. Bai Ze thought it was surprising. In the northern countries, scholars lingered among the red buildings. Even if they gained a reputation as a romantic, they would be looked down upon behind their backs.
This Song Dynasty is quite unique.
A country that admires the Confucian gentleman's style would actually rate a mortal woman as the most beautiful woman. Could this be the so-called extremes of things that must be reversed?
No matter what, Bai Ze planned to meet the most beautiful woman in the Song Dynasty in person.
Firstly, to satisfy my curiosity, and secondly, to see if I can try my luck and get news about Ouyang Mu's grandson.
This thief is really hateful, and he actually disguised himself as him and did such a perfunctory thing! If he gets the chance, he must give Ouyang Mu some color.
Bai Ze was dressed in a green shirt, wearing a crown on his head, a jade hairpin, a jeweled spiritual sword around his waist, and a jade belt, which made him look very noble. Even though his face was hard to tell at a glance, it made those pretty ladies weak in the legs, but the short beard between his chin and lips, which was different from those of white-faced scholars, also made those little girls secretly look at him when he walked on the long street. , or cover their mouths and smile coquettishly, or hold a Luo fan, half covering their pretty faces.
Bai Ze suddenly became playful and whistled at the little girls, making the beauties on the street shy, and then walked away laughing.
Since the grandson of Ouyang Mu dared to disguise himself as him and go to Qingtian Lanyue Tower to molest Li Shishi, then don't blame Bai Ze for treating him in his own way.
A night of spring rain made the bluestones of the long street moist.
The morning sun floats over the fields, shining warm light on the ground.
Not long after, Bai Ze arrived at Qingtian Lanyue Tower.
Singing and dancing flourished, creating a beautiful scene.
Bai Ze climbed up the stairs and entered the main entrance of the red building. What surprised him was that the Qingtian Lanyue Tower was very arrogant. From the moment he entered until now, no one greeted him.
Neither the young man in green clothes and white face nor the beauty in her late twenties asked a question.
Bai Ze was amazed in his heart, saying that this Qingtian Lanyue Tower actually had some character, which was really interesting.
Bai Ze sat down in the main hall. Drinks and snacks were already prepared on the elegant lacquered wood table. Bai Ze was not polite, picked up the jade pot, poured himself a glass of wine, and tasted it slowly. He felt that the sake was soft in the mouth, but it was the same as the wine. Northern spirits are quite different.
"This friend is new here and doesn't understand the rules here yet." Bai Ze asked a young man at the next table with a smile, and said softly: "This Qingtian Lanyue Tower seems to be different from other places. I don't know what the rules are here. ?”
The young master Kuanfu put away his folding fan and said with a smile: "You have asked the right person. This Qingtian Lanyue Tower is indeed different from other places. Drinking, listening to music and giving rewards are all placed directly on the table, so naturally you will There are young boys coming to collect them.”
As he said this, he gestured to the table that Bai Ze was looking at. Just as the guest was leaving, he left a silver coin on the table and left. After a while, a young man in green clothes and white face came to collect the money, removed the table of drinks and snacks, and replaced it with a new one.
"That's it." Bai Ze understood in his heart.
"There is no need to go to the second floor to listen to music and dance." The young master added, "If you want to have a heart-to-heart talk with the girls here, or if you want to have a private room to listen to music alone, you have to go to the second floor. If it’s a spring night, you have to go to the third floor.”
Bai Ze looked towards the main hall and saw a red curtain and a beautiful woman playing the piano, just like the tinkling sound of clear springs and the wind blowing in the lotus pond, making people intoxicated. The girl accompanying the dancer has long sleeves and a slender waist, which is pleasing to the eye, just like the spring breeze blowing on the face.
"I heard that the girls in this building only show off their skills but not their bodies, right?" Bai Ze asked.
"This friend is joking." The young man said with a smile, "Not everyone in Qingtian Lanyue Tower is as noble as Li Shishi, the most beautiful woman in the Song Dynasty. If all the girls only show off their skills but not their bodies, how will this business be done? Keep doing it?"
Bai Ze laughed at the two of them and pretended to listen to the music.
When the young master saw that Bai Ze had stopped talking, he couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked, "My friend, I see that you have extraordinary bearing. Could it be that you came all the way to the capital of Song Dynasty just to meet the most beautiful woman in the Song Dynasty?"
"Isn't that right?" Bai Ze said after drinking, "People say Master Li is the most beautiful in the world. Now that he has come to the capital of Song Dynasty, why would he leave without seeing her?"
"You are an upright person." The young master smiled and raised his glass to drink with Bai Ze. "Unfortunately, you may not be able to get what you want today."
"Oh, why?" Bai Ze asked.
"Why, you haven't heard?" The young master looked at Bai Ze and said, "This morning, the eldest son of the Xianmen in the North, who has become famous in recent years, suddenly came here and had already invited Master Li to listen to music. "
Bai Ze was confused when he heard this.
What grandson would do something in his name again? !
The young master failed to notice the strange look on Bai Ze's expression and continued: "The news about this matter has leaked out. I guess that in a while, someone will come to the palace. After all, he is the eldest son of the Xianmen. The leaders of the Northern Dao Sect are everywhere, so our Lord, we can’t turn a blind eye, can we?”
"My friend, is that the eldest son of the Immortal Sect you are talking about, could it be..." Bai Ze wanted to laugh, but couldn't. He immediately wanted to go up to the second floor and catch that swindling bitch out. Fat beating.
"Bai Ze!" The young master looked like he had seen a ghost. "Brother, seeing that you have a sword on your waist, you should know some swordsmanship. Could it be that you haven't heard of the reputation of the eldest master of the Immortal Sect?"
"Of course I've heard about this..." Bai Ze drank awkwardly.
At this moment, the uniform sound of horse hooves sounded outside the main door, and then everyone dismounted, and the boy in green hurriedly went out to greet them.
Bai Ze saw it but sneered in his heart.
It seems that the Qingtian Lanyue Tower is not so aloof to everyone. Listening to the sound of the horse's hooves, it seems that it is a well-trained horse. It is either a military war horse or a temple ceremonial horse. Most of the people coming are the young master holding the folding fan just now. , the so-called "people from the palace".
Sure enough, the first person walked slowly into the main entrance, wearing soap boots and scarlet clothes, embroidered with cranes, and the black gauze on the top moved with his footsteps. He was even and steady, with three strands of green beard on his face, which showed the elegance of a civil servant.
"It's actually this lord!" The young man at the next table took a breath and whispered, "Brother, this lord is the Prime Minister of Qian."
When Bai Ze heard this, he was also secretly surprised. He couldn't help but take a second look at the official in Fei uniform who had been informed of the destiny that year. Unexpectedly, the person coming from the palace was actually Qian Qi, the Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty!
Behind Qian Xiang, an armored swordsman followed closely. His aura was reserved. He noticed Bai Ze's gaze and glanced sideways. His eyes were very deep, as if he was a master of swordsmanship.
Behind the two people, there was a small yellow door, and behind them were the honor guard soldiers. There were eight people in total. The formation was not small. As soon as they entered the door, they directly attracted the attention of everyone in the main hall.
As Song Prime Minister Qian Qi appeared in Qingtian Lanyue Tower, those who knew well had naturally guessed that Zhang Yan, the eunuch who used thunderous means to overthrow the imperial eunuch Zhang Yan years ago, had become the real one under the leadership of the Song Dynasty temple. The Prime Minister, who is more than ten thousand people, is here for Bai Ze, the eldest son of Yunhai Xianmen.
Those who didn't know the inside story were shocked and confused about the purpose of Prime Minister Qian's visit to this romantic place. They whispered to each other and discussed in low voices.
But before these people could discuss anything, the little Huangmen behind Qian Xiang suddenly cleared his throat and shouted in a very sharp but not harsh voice: "Master Song Tingxiangguo, come and see me." The eldest son of the Yunhai Immortal Sect, would you please step aside and say something to me!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole place fell silent.
"My dear, it seems that this news is true." The young man at the next table's eyes lit up and he whispered, "Master Xiangguo came to see you in person. It seems that the person who hired Master Li on the second floor is really Bai Ze! No! I never thought that I would be able to see the eldest son of the Immortal Sect with my own eyes one day!"
When Bai Ze heard this, his expression was extremely exciting.
Following this shouting, the leader, the Prime Minister, frowned and scolded: "What a shame! What's the decency of making noise here?"
Seeing the two people, one with a red face and the other with a dark face, Bai Ze found it interesting. At the same time, he moved his eyes to the second floor, holding the white jade cup and drinking slowly.
He wanted to see who was pretending to be him to see Master Li again.
At the same time, Bai Ze couldn't help but chuckle inwardly.
In the main hall, there seemed to be a few familiar faces sitting there, the same people who had chased him yesterday. When the impostor appears on the second floor, there will be a good show.
In the main hall, people kept saluting Mr. Qian. After waiting for a while, the seductive music of the piano on the second floor suddenly stopped, and an impatient voice rang out: "What Prime Minister, you ruined my elegance, can you afford it?" ? Beauty, let’s continue..."
As soon as these words came out, everyone on the first floor changed their expressions.
"This eldest son of the Immortal Sect is so ignorant of praise!" Someone said angrily, "He didn't even give me the face of the Prime Minister. It's really abominable!"
Some people even scolded them directly.
Bai Ze's face darkened, he searched for the sound and located a room on the second floor. He used his consciousness to find out what kind of cat or dog was in that room.
At this time, the beauty in the room said warmly: "Sir, the person who comes here is the Prime Minister. I'm afraid it's inappropriate for you to behave like this."
The man in the room who looked the same as Bai Ze said, "Well, I will give the beauty the honor of meeting our Prime Minister."
After that, he shouted: "I'd better trouble your Lord Xiangguo to come up and talk about it!"
At the same time, Bai Ze's consciousness had penetrated into the room.
When the fake Bai Ze noticed this spiritual consciousness, he felt it was inexplicably familiar. His expression changed and he was about to run away.
Unexpectedly, Bai Ze didn't give him any time to react. He stood up directly in the main hall on the first floor and said with a smile: "I didn't expect to meet the eldest son here, what a fate!"
As soon as Bai Zefu stood up, everyone in the hall focused their attention on him.
The young man at the next table was even more shocked and said: "You actually recognize the eldest young master of Yunhai Xianmen?!"
