Ouyang Ku respectfully sent Lu Zheng and others out of the house, and then announced that he would be in seclusion and not see outsiders for a month.
Jing Qianyu held Shen Ying's arm and chirped in praise of Lu Zheng's prowess.
"Young Master Lu is so awesome. It is said that Master Ouyang has always been very proud, but in the end he was..."
"I didn't expect Mr. Lu to be able to play the piano for the Phoenix Goddess!"
"I don't know how beautiful the Phoenix Goddess is?"
"I have only heard of the Phoenix in southern Xinjiang, witnessing the ups and downs of the world and the vicissitudes of the world. This is the first time I find myself so close to the Phoenix Goddess!"
"Master Lu's piano sound is so beautiful, I feel like I really saw a phoenix!"
Shen Ying was held by her arm, and then smiled and said, "You are so curious, wouldn't it be nice to ask your ancestor to take you to visit?"
Jing Qianyu shrank her neck, "I haven't even met my ancestor many times, how dare I ask him to take me to see Phoenix?"
Jing Gao Qidu was an ancestor of Prince Lingwu's palace for who knows how many generations. He usually practiced in seclusion in the royal ancestral hall. He rarely appeared in front of his descendants except on big days or important events.
Jing Qianyu's cultivation talent was only average, not enough for Jing Gao Qi Shangxin to teach him personally.
Jing Qianyu looked up at the sky, "It's almost noon. Should we go back to the palace for dinner, or find a restaurant?"
Shen Ying looked at the crowd and smiled, "You are a local. Find us a special restaurant and take us around in the afternoon."
"Okay, okay!" Jing Qianyu nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and left with everyone, "Yuxian Tower is a famous restaurant in the capital. It is said that there was a master who drank in Yuxian Tower and understood the principles of heaven and earth. He ascended on the spot and was witnessed by thousands of people. Everyone was baptized by the fairy light and lived a long life, free from all diseases."
"You can ascend after just one drink? What kind of fairy wine is this?" Lu Zheng clicked his tongue.
"I've had it before. Although it's not that magical, it's still delicious. Moreover, their Yuxian Wine is one of the royal tribute wines," Jing Qianyu said.
"Then go try it." Lu Zheng said with a smile, taking the opportunity to see how Wuliangye and Huadiao compare to his own.
So everyone went to Yuxian Tower.
With Jing Qianyu present, everyone was directly led to the dining room on the third floor, where the chef served them personally.
I have to say, it’s really good!
The dishes on the table were delicious, beautiful, and full of color, aroma, and flavor. Although not as good as Lu Zheng, it was still the best meal Lu Zheng had ever had in Dajing.
Especially Yuxianjiu, which is clear and translucent, has a strong aroma, and tastes slightly sweet, a bit similar to rice wine, but with a higher alcohol content.
"It's not bad. It's indeed a famous restaurant in Zhongjing. It's much better than Juyage in Yizhou."
Juyage is already one of the best restaurants in Yizhou. Duan Chang always booked a private room in Juyage when he hosted Lu Zheng several times.
Although the dishes at Yuxianlou don't have all the bells and whistles of some of Blue Star's newer dishes, the taste is not bad at all. The ingredients are subtle and bring out the taste of many of the ingredients. Even Lu Zheng thinks it's quite desirable. place.
Lu Zheng did not hesitate to praise, and became interested in pointing out the advantages and disadvantages of each dish one by one. He spoke eloquently and stunned the shopkeeper who was about to come in to say hello.
He was also knowledgeable and knew that a master of cooking skills was coming, so he decisively went back and invited the chef to come and say hello.
…
A luncheon was a great time for the guests and hosts, and it also brought Jing Qianyu closer to the other girls.
When they went out again in the afternoon, Jing Qianyu took Shen Ying's arm and introduced the tour guide to everyone along the way.
"There are four markets in Zhongjing, divided into southeast, northeast, southwest, and northwest. Most of the items are pretty much the same, but the southeast has more cheap stuff, and the northwest has more rare things."
Jing Qianyu introduced, "The Guangde Square just now is the southwest market, and most of them are ordinary items. If sisters want to buy some rare items, you can go to the northwest Yuxiang Square. There are the most delicate silks and the richest Sandalwood, the most outstanding rouge, the most exquisite jewelry, you can’t finish them all in just a few days.”
Shen Ying nodded and asked, "Besides the four major markets, are there any other places worth visiting in Zhongjing?"
"Yes, yes!"
Jing Qianyu is very familiar with Zhongjing City, “There are many piano societies, painting societies, chess societies and book societies in the city, where everyone plays music together, plays chess, paints, and reads and comments.
There is also a theater with opera singers, storytellers, jugglers, and jugglers.
There are also many games, including polo, Cuju, pot throwing, archery, paper kites, boat races, etc.
Cockfighting and dogfighting are too cruel. If my sister is interested, there is also fighting between insects, flowers and birds.
Moreover……"
"Fighting birds? What kind of birds? How to fight?" Lu Zheng suddenly asked.
Si Lingxi narrowed her eyes, and Liu Qingyan twisted under Lu Zheng's ribs.
"Comparing your voice!"
Jing Qianyu didn't notice anything wrong, and was quite interested in fighting birds. "Orioles, canaries, thrushes, magpies, and jade cuckoos all have good voices."
Lu Zheng nodded with a serious face, "I see, I was wrong. I thought we were letting eagles, falcons, doves and other raptors compete."
"Oh, that's not true." Jing Qianyu shook his head.
However, after hearing Jing Qianyu's introduction, Liu Qingyan became interested in one of the entertainments.
"Does Zhongjing's opera have many repertoires?"
"There are so many!" Jing Qianyu's eyes sparkled, "The theater troupes from all walks of life send people to various places to collect performances, and new plays are promoted every year. There are also theater troupes from other places coming to Beijing, and they also bring many operas."
Liu Qingyan's eyes lit up, "Is there any good show?"
"Yes, yes!"
Jing Qianyu nodded repeatedly and counted his family treasures on his fingers, "The Myth of Yaoshan Mountain" by Chengyue Garden, "The Story of Love Flower" by Yushui Garden, "The Fate of the Fan" by Zhanhua Pavilion, and "Love in Three Generations" by Zhibu Zhai, all are It’s a very good drama and very engaging.”
"hiss--"
Liu Qingyan took a breath and her eyes suddenly brightened. Besides practicing medicine, her biggest hobby was watching theater and listening to music.
The number of opera troupes and the prosperity of operas in Zhongjing are obviously not on the same level as Tonglin County or even Yizhou Prefecture.
This place is simply... paradise!
It just so happened that although Shen Ying and Si Lingxi were not as obsessed as Liu Qingyan, they also liked watching theater.
So the afternoon activities can be determined.
"Which troupe is nearest?" Liu Qingyan looked back and asked.
"Zhi Buzhai, but I don't know if they are performing "Three Worlds of Love" this afternoon," Jing Qianyu said.
Shen Ying nodded and made a decision, "Go and watch it first. Even if it isn't, it won't be an ugly opera."
Jing Qianyu nodded, "That's for sure. As long as one play is booed by the guests, the theater's sign will be smashed. If you want to put it up again, you will have to work hard.
Zhi Puzhai can be regarded as a first-class existence among the theaters in Zhongjing City. "
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go!"
