Deyi Tower in Bianjing City is a well-known restaurant in Kaifeng City. Although it is not as magnificent, wine-filled and wealthy as Fan Tower, it is still fresh and elegant.
In a private room on the second floor of Deyi Building, two people stood in front of a bronze mirror. One person is wearing a scholar's robe, and the other person is dressed as a maid.
I saw that the person dressed as a maid was about fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing a light-colored blouse and skirt. She was helping the person dressed as a scholar to arrange his hair.
She put the man's hair into a scholar's bun, tied it up with a ribbon, and took a hosta from the table and inserted it into the bun. Then he looked towards the bronze mirror and nodded with satisfaction.
She picked up a handful of something similar to hair on the desk and handed it to the man in the scholar's robe. The man actually put it under his nose, and then pressed it;
The man turned around and said, "Xiaorou, do I look like a scholar who has read poetry?" After saying that, he raised his head and walked back and forth a few steps. The voice was clear and smiling, obviously a woman's voice.
The maid named Xiaorou covered her mouth and chuckled: "Miss, if you go out on the street dressed like this, you will charm many young girls from good families." After saying this, she couldn't stop giggling.
"Of course, I'm dressed like a jade tree in the wind..." After saying that, he took a folding fan as if to meet the occasion and said while walking back and forth.
After saying that, he suddenly remembered something and continued:
"Hey, how many times have I told you, call me Young Master, don't call me wrong again." After saying that, he hit Xiaorou on the head with the folding fan.
Xiaorou couldn't help but smile and said: "I know, Young Master, it's just... Young Master, how come your place is so big? Hahahaha...".
Xiaorou pointed at the man's chest and said. The man's scholar's robe made his upper body bulging and his chest looked particularly conspicuous, so Xiao Rou said teasingly.
"You damn girl, it's not because you tied your clothes too tight, why don't you loosen them for me?" After hearing this, the man's face turned red and he pretended to be angry. After saying that, he hit Xiaorou on the head with the folding fan again.
The two of them started to fight again, and after a while Xiaorou said: "Miss, let's get dressed up quickly. When the eldest son comes back later, we won't be able to get out."
"It's okay, eldest brother said. He went to the palace today to diagnose and treat an old illness for the officials. He may have to come back very late. We have come all the way from southern Xinjiang, so we have to have fun in Bianjing City. Mr. Liang said, Bianjing City It is the most prosperous city in the world, with all kinds of fun, delicious, and beautiful things to see. We finally came here once, and it would be a pity not to take a stroll, especially Fan Tower, which is "the best building in the world". We also want to go shopping, so it’s not a worthwhile trip.”
It turned out that these two people came to Beijing with Bai Lekang. This woman disguised as a man and wearing a scholar's robe is Bai Yingying, Bai Lekang's sister and the daughter of Bai Chen, the leader of the Five Poisons Sect;
Xiaorou on the side is Bai Yingying's personal maid who has played with her since childhood.
When Xiaorou heard this, she said worriedly: "Miss, the two of us secretly followed the eldest son behind our backs. Before entering the palace, the eldest son repeatedly told us not to run around. If we go out now, we will be raped when we come back." The young master is blaming me, and besides, we are not familiar with the place in Bianjing City, so if something goes wrong, we won’t even have a place to cry."
"You promised the eldest son on the way that you would definitely listen to him, so he brought us here..." Xiaorou felt worried again and said to Bai Yingying.
Bai Yingying smiled relaxedly, pinched Xiaorou's face with both hands and said, "Oh~ It's okay, let's go back quickly. Maybe the eldest brother hasn't come back yet, so we'll be back first. Let's go." If we don’t go out, we won’t have time.”
Xiaorou on the side curled her lips and looked helpless after hearing this; but she quickly followed and walked down from the second floor.
The two came to the lobby of Deyi Building and asked the waiter for directions to some interesting places in Fan Tower and Bianjing City. The waiter was stunned for a moment, looked at the two of them, and then looked at the second floor;
He clearly saw two girls entering the room and emerging as a handsome young man and a lolita maid; he couldn't help but look at the scholar in front of him a few more times;
When he saw the pierced ears of the scholar in the robe, he smiled secretly and showed an "I see" expression, pointing the way to the two of them.
Bai Yingying and Xiaorou left Deyi Building and came to Changfeng Street. The main street paved with long stone slabs was about eight feet wide and could accommodate four carriages driving side by side;
The two grew up in southern Xinjiang and were used to walking on rugged mountain roads. When they first walked on this long, mirror-flat stone street, they felt an unprecedented sense of security.
On the right side of Changfeng Street is the Bianhe River. The entire Tokyo Bianliang City is crossed by the Bianhe River, and Bianjing City got its name from this;
The Bianhe River enters the city from the west water gate of the outer city, flows to the southeast through the inner city, exits from the east water gate of the outer city, and passes through Tokyo City. There are hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Bianliang, Tokyo, and millions of families live there. Rice and grain from all over the world supply the capital, so the Bianhe River water transport is indispensable.
This is because the Bianhe River "transfers millions of stones of rice from the Yangtze River, Huaihu Lake, and Zhejiang Province every year, and the products that reach the southeast are countless things and treasures. They also bring fuel from the Western Mountains to transport millet to the capital, so as to energize Hebei's urgent needs, both internally and externally." Look up to me. Therefore, don’t attach importance to this in all kinds of water.” The Bianhe Wharf is therefore extremely important;
The two walked straight along the river. It was getting late and twilight was falling. Some merchants in Bianjing City began to light lamps. Looking from the street to both sides, they saw thousands of lights lined up in rows, and the smell of fireworks jumped into their eyes.
The two of them walked all the way to the Tianhan Bridge on the Bianhe River. The water of the Bianhe River rolled under the bridge, taking away many events from the past and the present. The ferry beside the Bianhe River pier was busy every day, and many people had crossed it. spring and autumn;
Several painting boats and cargo ships in the river are either going upstream or downstream, like a moving landscape;
In the Bianhe River, Yang Yunfan, Yang Yanzhao and Chen Zishan were standing on the front board of a painting boat, talking and laughing, watching the night scenery on both sides of the Bianhe River;
As soon as night falls in Bianjing City, outside the houses built along the banks of the Bianhe River, lanterns of various sizes and shapes will light up and meander away, like a long fiery red dragon lying in the city. , a night boat trip on the Bianhe River has also become a major scenery in Bianjing City;
Yang Yunfan and Chen Zishan, who had grown up in the Kunlun Sect since childhood, had never seen such beautiful scenery before, and they were dazzled by it for a while;
Although Yang Yanzhao has lived in Bianjing for many years, he has been away from home all year round. He has never been able to enjoy the trip by boat as much as he does now. Moreover, he has been away from his hometown for nearly twenty years and is used to seeing exotic customs. Returning to his hometown will certainly be a different experience. emotion;
When the three of them approached the dock, they stopped the boat and went ashore, walking towards the place where Fan Tower was located. The lights of thousands of houses outlined the prosperity of this first capital city in the world;
The long street is full of people, and vendors of all kinds are selling goods on both sides of the road. At the Zhouqiao Night Market, various local food stalls are also crowded with porters carrying goods along the river docks.
