The largest and most luxurious Wangxie Fengyue Tower in Longyin City is on land, and the most romantic boat in the water is the Caiyun Xinghe Tower wandering in the Nanhuai River.
The name is a building, but it is actually a ship. There are three floors above the deck. On the port side of the pier, there is a six-column archway-style door wall with five doors. Behind the central ring is a hanging gauze, and the light shines on it like a full moon embedded in the hull of the ship.
A three-story main building was built behind the archway-style door wall. It looks magnificent from a distance and is exquisitely carved up close. The first floor contains an open atrium filled with tables, chairs and banquets. There is a front stage with singing and dancing, and versatile girls waving their sleeves.
The second floor is full of guest rooms. If the girls approve, high-profile guests can become guests. The opportunity to recommend pillow seats must be won by the guests themselves.
Half of the third floor is for more luxurious guest rooms, and the back is the residence of the owner of Caiyun Xinghe Building. The reverse room, main room, and side room form a courtyard, with flowers and fruit trees planted in the middle, turning it into a courtyard in the sky.
Just looking at the height, width, length, waterline and other data, the Caiyun Galaxy Tower is as mammoth as the flagship "Longwei" of the New Qin Navy.
Of course, the Caiyun Xinghe Tower does not need to sail on the sea with huge waves and dangers. The real cost and materials are naturally not comparable to that of a navy ship equipped with a giant cannon.
Compared with the extravagance of Wang Xie Fengyue Tower and the standard of Jiaofangsi Tower, the biggest feature of Caiyun Xinghe Tower is that it only entertains two types of guests: intellectuals and knights.
The guests who want to board the ship are either good at playing music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, poetry, or are martial artists of level four or above.
It is absolutely impossible to board a ship just because you have a lot of money, but if you don't have the confidence to have a lot of money after boarding, you won't be able to stay on the ship for long.
Some talented literary men have won the hearts of girls at first sight just by virtue of their own talents and masterpieces, but only a few of them have paid for them in advance.
The deputy owner of Caiyun Xinghe Building is looking at the Milky Way. He is wearing a white robe, with an upright posture and picturesque eyebrows. His hair is tied up high in a bun, and his hair is covered with green hair. It is pushed open by the tall hair below the waist. The ends of his hair are slightly thinner and swaying slightly. , as if a lush green seedling was crushed, but people found that it was growing on a round hillside.
There is a calligraphy on the door of the main room of the courtyard, "The clouds on the Caizhou are light, and the herons on the stars are rising." The content is the same as that on the door plate of the Caiyun Xinghe Tower, but the calligraphy was written by Du Wei, the prime minister of the dynasty, and the retouching fee was very high. Expensive, but worth the money.
As for whether it is the prime minister's calligraphy value or other incidental benefits, everyone has their own opinion.
The woman in red who had just peeked at the Prime Minister's Mansion from the rooftop was like a red cloud burned by the red sun, floating in front of Lan Xinghe.
I saw that she had a narrow waist and wide hips, and her bust was so heavy that it seemed she couldn't hold it. Her blouse was spread out, her jade shoulders were half exposed, she was holding half a bottle of mellow-smelling liquor in her hands, and there were still drops of wine hanging from the corners of her soft mouth. There was a glimmer of wine, and the light in her eyes was like the blurred night, as ecstatic as her body but hiding the murderous intention to kill people.
Two white and tender fingers pinched the wine bottle, and the clear and cold liquid leaked out, entering the throat like a white arrow.
Although most of the regular customers of Caiyun Xinghe Building have never met her, she is indeed the real owner of the place, the building owner Liang Yundan.
She squinted her eyes, which became narrow and charming, and said: "Xinghe, life is like a dream, bizarre and ever-changing. You will never imagine what I just saw."
"What did you see?" Lan Xinghe took the wine bottle in her hand and asked softly.
"First on the list."
"Winning the No. 1 ranking of Ruchurugulou last year?" Lan Xinghe knows a lot about this matter.
Gambling is human nature, and countless people bet on this and that every day.
Some people have lost their entire fortune due to gambling, while others have made a fortune.
Small gambling makes you happy, but big gambling hurts your body. However, in fact, small gambling only cultivates gambling addiction. Big gambling not only hurts your body, but also your life. It can make you bankrupt and ruin your family.
Sometimes even if you win, it may not be a good thing, especially if you turn the other party into a gambler with nothing, you will inevitably take risks.
According to the rules of Juyi Tower, losing the Ruchu Rugu Tower means losing the position of elder in Juyi Tower. The original owner of the building was ready to kill Bang Yi and take back the Ru Chu Ru Gu Tower, but he did not expect the deed tax from the Bangyi Company government. They didn't handle it, which was equivalent to giving up on Ruchurulou and quickly leaving Yuanping, avoiding a fatal disaster.
As for whether he heard the news or had other urgent matters, it didn't matter.
"That's him." Liang Yun chuckled lightly, "I met him on the road some time ago, and I was wondering if I could absorb him into Juyi Tower..."
The name of Ruchu Rugu Building comes from "the eyebrows and eyes remain the same as before, and the years remain the same". The current building owner Gu Yiwei inherited his father's business and inherited the Ruchu Rugu Building.
Gu Yiwei is a master of martial arts. In terms of martial arts alone, he ranks in the middle among the owners of Juyi Tower. However, he is addicted to gambling, lustful and cruel by nature, which Liang Yundan does not like.
Even though they both belong to Juyi Building, Gu Yiwei and Liang Yundan have had many conflicts. For Liang Yundan, if someone can replace Gu Yiwei, he would be happy to see it happen.
Liang Yundan met Bang Yi in Ruchurugulou, and later met him by chance on the road when the spring breeze was beginning to blow away. He wanted to see if he was interested and suitable to join Juyilou, so he tried it out and tried to mediate several times. Day, a little income.
"The first one on the list was generous with money and had an outstanding temperament when he was in Ruchurugulou. He was obviously from a wealthy family and trained in a famous sect."
Lan Xinghe took a sip from the wine bottle and felt that his throat was burning. Under Liang Yundan's slightly teasing eyes, he barely managed to avoid tears and continued:
"Ahem...cough...A property like Ruchu Rugulou can be thrown away. His ambition is very high and his mind is far-reaching. I'm afraid it will be difficult to recruit."
Liang Yun nodded lightly, "I thought so too."
"original?"
"I was drinking on the roof just now, and I happened to see a man wearing a mask squatting in the wing of the Prime Minister's Mansion... It's the kind of opera mask that flower pickers like most." Liang Yundan glanced at Xinghe's soft and delicate chin, Bring the wine bottle over:
"You'd better drink less. Later, when you're drunk and hazy with peach blossoms in your eyes, I'm afraid you'll be fascinated by the talented people again, and your poetry will be great...haha..."
After speaking, Liang Yundan reached out to brush the night wind that fell into the courtyard to prevent her hair from being messy. After taking a sip of wine, she walked into the main room.
"I'll accompany you tonight..." Lan Xinghe swayed at the waist, raised his legs and hooked the door with his toes. He seemed to be a little drunk. He swayed and kicked the door shut again, "I'm coming to Beijing this time. , I won’t let you leave until you stay a little longer.”
Liang Yundan bent down to add charcoal to the stove.
Lan Xinghe stood behind her, and saw Liang Yundan's waist sinking. The soft material could not wrap up the fullness, and the charming style seemed to be steamed by charcoal fire with heat, burning people's hearts, making people seem to be tipsy. Intoxicated.
"The flower-picking thief was discovered, and after a fight, his mask was taken off at will. The light leaking from the hole in the roof hit his face, and he greeted the people in the house... What do you think this is? What's the situation?" Liang Yundan lay beside the stove and asked Xinghe with a smile.
"Is it because he has already succeeded, and the women in the prime minister's palace have already secretly been in love with him? After taking off the mask, if... if it is a man like the first on the list, I am afraid that those empty and lonely women, even if their chastity is defiled by him first, I will also show mercy..." After Lan Xinghe's only thought, he knew that the flower picker Liang Yundan saw was the number one on the list.
This is really surprising.
Liang Yundan held the back of his head with one hand and leaned back slightly to drink. His clothes were disheveled and his long skirt slipped down his smooth legs. Under the red firelight, it looked like jade stained with rouge.
After drinking the wine, he took a long breath. Liang Yundan waved to Lan Xinghe, narrowed his narrow eyes, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"Although some details are not very clear, indicating that there may be unknown adultery, but in general it is what you said...men who can climb on people's beams and get under people's beds are easy to recruit. too much?"
Lan Xinghe was sitting on Liang Yundan's waist, but she reached out to hug her, and leaned into her arms with a cry. Lan Xinghe leaned against Liang Yundan's heart that made women intoxicated, and moaned with a nasal sound,
"Well... We in Juyi Tower don't need gentlemen or talented people from famous families. If it is such a sanctimonious sect family, it will really have no chance of us."
"You must break through as soon as possible and be able to stand alone." Liang Yundan raised the wine bottle, and a line of wine fell into the charcoal fire.
呲——
The water vapor is evaporating and the aroma of wine is overflowing.
Lan Xinghe's delicate body trembled slightly, and she could feel the meaning of Liang Yundan's words, and silently looked at the lingering water vapor.
"By the way... a small stronghold that Juyi Tower had hidden in Longyin City for many years was taken away." Lan Xinghe turned his head sideways and looked at Liang Yundan's profile with soft eyes.
In fact, Liang Yundan is not a traditional delicate beauty. Her chin is not particularly pointed. Her face is mainly round and plump. The corners of her eyes are slightly raised and her lips are thick, but there is always something about her that makes her want to open her lips. Tease her lips and tongue, revealing the charm of her blurred eyes.
Regardless of men or women, when they see a woman like Liang Yundan, they will feel a strange aura from her.
"Juyi Tower is no different from ordinary Jianghu sects. It is a confederation that the imperial court focuses on. It is neither willing to be recruited nor is it under the jurisdiction of Jiuzhou Prefecture. It is normal to be removed. Caiyun Xinghe Tower is just you and me. Juyi Tower Man, you are the official queen of Longyin City, and I rarely enter Longyin City. Every time I hide my identity and enter the city, I have been safe and sound."
Liang Yuntan didn't care.
In fact, Juyi Tower had always known that Liang Yundan, in addition to controlling the border city, also had private operations in Longyin City. They wanted to put people in, but Liang Yundan firmly refused.
An alliance like Juyi Tower is very different from the general Jianghu sects. Everyone gathers under the name of Juyi Tower. In addition to unified goals and pursuits, they are more responsible for each other.
It was impossible to force Liang Yundan to expose her own property for Juyi Tower's use.
"It seems that it was not the imperial court and Jiuzhou Mansion that took it away, but that Yang You was extorting money and ran into trouble..."
Liang Yundan couldn't help but shake his head. Over the years, the chief landlord has used various means to gradually win over the surrender and loyalty of many elders. Elders like Liang Yundan who are unwilling to follow the trend and change the status quo have gradually been marginalized, while the chief landlord is going on a rampage. When expanding your power, recruiting people basically has no bottom line and is based on personal needs.
This Yang You seems to be a ruffian or something like that.
"The key problem is that Yu Wanqing went there as a supplementary staff and disappeared this afternoon." Lan Xinghe looked worried.
"Yu Wanqing...is that the subordinate you placed in Ruchururulou?"
Liang Yundan was a little surprised. It seemed that the establishment of a stronghold in Longyin City was not only the intention of the chief building owner, but other elder building owners were also involved. He didn't know how many people were sent in in total.
She didn't plan to send her own men to join that stronghold, and she didn't want Caiyun Xinghe Tower to be implicated, but she couldn't just ignore it completely.
"Yes. Yu Wanqing doesn't know your true identity or the affairs of Caiyun Xinghe Building. She only knows my identity in Juyi Building and doesn't know that I am the deputy landlord of Caiyun Xinghe Building."
Lan Xinghe told the truth that she was only worried about Yu Wanqing's safety, not the crisis caused by Yu Wanqing's betrayal of information.
"I'll do my best." Liang Yun nodded lightly.
She is probably the person with the highest status in Longyin City in Juyilou. She cannot stay out of trouble. Whether it is for Yu Wanqing or Juyilou, she can only do her best... This Longyin There are crouching tigers and hidden dragons in the city, and she can't call the shots here.
"The most important thing is to be careful of yourself and don't expose your identity. Your wanted notice is posted on the city wall. Every time I see it, I can't help but want to tear it off." Lan Xinghe looked at Liang Yundan's eyebrows and said, "Pfft "Chi" laughed out loud, "The painting is too ugly. Even if you pass under the city wall, no one will recognize it."
Liang Yundan pressed the button and remembered only her eyebrows, and she was also smiling. Women always put on eyebrows and put on makeup. The makeup was different, and their appearance and temperament were completely different. Few people had seen Liang Yundan's true appearance without makeup, and the portraits were all different. I don’t know whose impression the depiction was based on, how could it be done accurately?
"I used my original identity as a branch of the Liang family, and it was also my true identity registered in Longyin City, so I don't want to be exposed. This return to Beijing is mainly to pave the way for some things and settle some old affairs. The most important thing is I hope that I can ask someone to set up a bridge and meet the new governor of Jiuzhou Prefecture."
Liang Yundan was just on the roof of the building, and naturally he also noticed the Langya Palace, which is across the alley from the Prime Minister's Palace. It has high-rise buildings, gardens and lakes, and the luxury is like heaven and earth.
Especially the tall building that is said to be called Yuezhao Fenglai Pavilion. It is surrounded by lanterns and candlelight layer by layer, as if it is a staircase extending to the Kingdom of God. Presumably the new prince of Jiuzhou Mansion, who is about to become the eldest son of King Langya, has just lived in it. He looked down at the dimly lit city with pride.
Perhaps he occasionally cast his eyes on the Nanhuai River where the paper-drunken lantern riddles were played, and saw the extremely romantic Caiyun Xinghe Tower.
In the past two days, for some reason, my mind has been running slowly and my writing has been slow. Maybe I am about to break through.
