Jiaofang Division, Changlefang.
In the past, Xuanzong loved secular music and introduced it into the court.
In the second year of Kaiyuan, Xuanzong re-planned and set up the Jiaofang, dividing it into internal Jiaofang and external Jiaofang.
The inner teaching hall is located in the East Inner Garden next to Penglai Palace in Chang'an, while there are two outer teaching halls. They are all located in Luoyang, Tokyo. In addition, there are two teaching workshops on the left and right outside the Forbidden City of Luoyang.
On the right is Guangzhaifang and on the left is Changlefang.
The singing and dancing geishas in Changlefang are extremely good at dancing.
In Changle Square, today's oiran Xiao Xiao can be regarded as a frequent visitor to the halls of countless dignitaries in Luoyang City.
Whenever a teacher can be invited to a small banquet, the atmosphere will be a bit more lively than usual.
Her pipa music can make people mesmerized. Coupled with her dancing figure, everyone, whether they are royal relatives or dignitaries, can be impressed by her dancing.
When Zhu Youzhen took over Luoyang, he asked Shi Xiaoxiao to dance for him, but before he could, Li Jing was driven out of Luoyang in embarrassment.
Changlefang is higher than ordinary Jiaofangsi, and only those with excellent dancing skills selected from it can be qualified to enter here.
And those who can enter here are not ordinary people.
Master Xiaoxiao is not something that ordinary dignitaries can see.
The Taile Department Commander of Changlefang is an old man with gray hair and beard and a somewhat stooped body. Whenever you meet Shi Xiaoxiao, you must first say hello to this old man.
The Chief of Taile Department looked like a good old man, but the people he usually met were all dignitaries with high official positions, so he treated everyone in a normal manner.
Ordinary people can't catch his eye.
But today, a noble person came to Changle Square.
It was already the time when the lanterns were first turned on, and the lights were shining brightly. Changlefang, which was originally a little deserted because Luoyang changed its owner, has gradually become more lively in the past two days.
Whether they are the officials who originally served Zhu Wen or the generals at all levels promoted by Li Jing, there are such a small group of people who like to come here to relax and unwind after a busy day.
Whether it’s listening to music theory or watching dance, it’s something that makes people physically and mentally happy.
Shi Xiaoxiao, who was not allowed to show up easily, was hurriedly ordered by the Taile Department to go to the small pavilion to invite him out.
At this moment, the gray-bearded Tai Le was accompanying him in a private room. He had a smile on his face and his body was very low. He stood respectfully by the door and looked at the young man sitting there casually. At feet.
The brocade-trimmed hem hangs slowly beside the boots.
Next to this young man is a very lively-looking girl, only seventeen or eighteen years old, but she looks very petite in Miao clothing.
Next to him is a heroic woman in a blue shirt...
If it weren't for the large group of black-armored masked knights outside, the Taile Department Commander would hardly have thought that this young man had the identity of King Qin.
Bringing two female students to Jiaofangsi is a bit unusual.
Li Jing has a tea cup in hand, which contains the highest quality tea leaves in Changlefang, with only a slight aroma wafting out.
Chi Meng was bored alone, so she left him in the palace. At the same time, she was also curious about what Changlefang looked like, so she brought it with her.
"God's Coming"
As for Ji Ruxue, she was brought here by Chi Meng.
"Your Majesty, Changlefang is probably hundreds of years old."
Li Jing blew the scent of the tea and took a slow sip before looking at the Tai Le Department Order with a smile. I feel a little embarrassed to go to such trouble to disturb others so late at night.
The Tai Le Chief was a little flattered, as long as the word "公" was added to the end, it would be regarded as an honorific title. Li Jing had given him a lot of dignity.
"Your Majesty, I am from Changlefang, where I joined in the fifth year of Qianfu's reign. It is now more than thirty years old... This Changlefang was built since Xuanzong, and it is nearly two hundred years old..."
He patted his cuffs, then clasped his hands together and bowed.
Chi Meng was startled and counted with his fingers. In the fifth year of Qianfu's reign, her father, King Hui, was just a little kid...
Li Jing nodded slightly. Qianfu was from the reign of Emperor Xizong. It was at that time that Huang Chao almost started to raise his troops to rebel.
"How are the geishas in Changlefang selected?"
He had a curious expression on his face and continued to ask with interest.
Seeing that Tai Le's commander didn't think much, he just followed the answer and said.
"The women in Changlefang are all from the Nijiaofang Division. They are all the family records of officials who have made mistakes in the past...and those who can enter Changlefang are all girls who have been proficient in music since childhood and have been taught dance skills. Among them, the superior ones are Only then can I be selected into Changlefang..."
Ji Ruxue had a look of indifference on her face. There were so many beautiful women in Huanyin Square, and they were all proficient in music and dance. Li Jing would not just come here to watch a dance.
Just sit back and watch.
"So, this young girl from Luoyang also entered Changlefang after going through many selection processes?"
The Taiyue Department Ling did not doubt that he was there, and at the same time he said with an apologetic smile: "Of course the same is true for the little girl Shixiao, and she has been obsessed with music since she was a child. The subordinates dare not boast that in the entire Guanzhong area, the little girl Shixiao's pipa, It can be regarded as a masterpiece..."
At the same time, he paused slightly.
Why did Shi Xiaoxiao take so long today?
But he didn't worry for long before he heard light footsteps coming from outside, heading this way.
The next second, a female voice sounded.
"Your Majesty, the little girl is here..."
Seeing the curious expression on Li Jing's face, Taile Department Commander hurriedly opened the door and welcomed the people outside.
I saw a foreign woman, wearing a beige long skirt, with a red tube top on her chest, and two strands of hair hanging on her cheeks. She looked fresh and elegant, but not lost in elegance.
This is Shi Xiaoxiao who has been talked about for a long time.
She had a little flower bouquet between her eyebrows, and the hair on the back of her head was tied with a gold hairpin, which made her look stunning.
At this moment, Shi Xiaoxiao was holding a pipa in his hand. Xu knew who was in the room on the way here. After seeing Li Jing, he knelt down politely.
"The slave family meets His Highness..."
Chi Meng was shocked again. He didn't expect Xiao Guo Guo to come here specifically to see this person tonight.
For a moment, she was unconvinced. She glanced sideways at Li Jing and was slightly stunned when she saw that his eyes were clear.
Just listen to Li Jing smile heartily.
"Get up. Your Majesty, the little girl is really well-deserved. I am really looking forward to seeing the little girl's dancing."
The commander of the Taiyue Department laughed and said: "Your Majesty, why don't you listen to the sound of a pipa first, and then dance to it..."
At this moment, Shi Xiaoxiao also had a gentle smile on his face. His beautiful eyes quickly looked at Li Jing, and then he lowered his eyes slightly.
But she immediately heard Li Jing interrupt Tai Le's order.
"Duan Chengtian, I think both your lord and the girl must know each other."
