Across the Water Margin: Officials of Ximen

Jiao Ting and Brother Qiao Yun laughed out loud at this Tang Mazi.

Ximen Qing had already walked away wrapped in the bustling crowd, not knowing what the three brothers were talking about behind him.

Walking north to Tushizi, Ximenqing asked someone for directions, and then walked towards Fanlou Street.

After searching for someone in Fanlou Street, Ximenqing turned a corner and walked into Xiaoyu Street outside Donghuamen.

Ximen Qing was walking on Xiaoyu Street, and saw that the two rows were full of Yanyue cards, and buildings and abodes were lined up on both sides of the street.There are some teahouses in the middle.

This small royal street is Fengyue Street in Bianliang City, Tokyo. The people living on the street are famous brothel singing girls in Bianjing City.

At this time, there were not too many pedestrians in Xiaoyu Street. Ximen Qing walked slowly on the street with Wuxian Ruan in his arms, looking like a handsome young man covered with capitals and haggard all by himself.

Occasionally, beautiful women on the road would wink at him when they saw Ximen Qing, a handsome man.Some of the bold ones even threw flowers and Luopa at Ximen Qing, giggling coquettishly by the side of the road.

Ximen Qing is not a person who doesn't understand customs, but today he already has people in his heart to tease, so he can only politely nod to those beautiful women, thank them and leave.

When I came to the middle of Xiaoyu Street, I saw a green cloth curtain hanging outside, bamboo curtains hanging inside, green screen windows on both sides, and two signs on the outside. Hua Yuekui."

If I remember correctly, it should be here.Ximen Qing stood by the street, talking to himself.

Ximen Qing looked around and saw a tea house not far away, so he entered the tea house to drink tea.

After choosing a table by the window and sitting down, Ximenqing ordered a pot of Gu Zhu purple bamboo shoot tea, and asked the tea doctor beside him, "Who is the prostitute in front?"

Dr. Cha said: "Returning to the guest officer, this is the head of the Tokyo Upper Hall, called Li Shishi."

Ximen Qing asked again: "Could it be that you have a hot fight with Li Shishi today?"

Dr. Cha hastily said in a low voice: "Guest officer, don't make a loud voice, your eyes and ears feel close."

Ximen Qing smiled slightly when he heard the words, praised Dr. Cha and asked him to step down.Ximen Qing sipped the purple bamboo shoot tribute tea alone, looking at Li Shishi's house in a trance.

That's right, this time Ximenqing came to Xiaoyu Street, he just wanted to conquer Li Shishi with his own expertise, taste what it's like to be the No.

Although Li Shishi is a brothel singing prostitute, she has been able to sing and dance since she was a child, and she has excellent looks.Before she was 15 years old, she became famous and dominated the teaching workshops in Bianliang, Tokyo.

Li Shishi was originally the top geisha in Fanlou, and at that time, many literati, refined scholars, and princes and grandchildren flocked to her.The treacherous minister Wang Fu fell in love with the emperor, and told Song Huizong of Li Shishi's beautiful name.

After Song Huizong summoned Li Shishi alone in the west building of Fanlou, he was conquered by her unique temperament and fell in love with this brothel singing girl.

In order to be able to have a tryst with Li Shishi, Song Huizong even specially built a tunnel from the imperial city to Li Shishi's home in Jinxian Lane, so that he could go out of the palace to see Li Shishi at any time.

Since the fierce fight with Song Huizong, Li Shishi did not go to that fan tower anymore, but stayed at his home in Jinxian Lane to receive distinguished guests.

However, after knowing the relationship between Li Shishi and Song Huizong, ordinary people dare not go to Li Shishi's door.Of course, Li Shishi's social status is also the highest in Bianjing, and people who are not rich and powerful can't afford her family.

Those literati who couldn't afford the money to kiss Fangze could only sourly record Li Shishi's family, You Jun.Write some poems to reminisce about the past years of Li Shishi when he was young.

The fact that Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty favored Li Shishi soon spread, and it was widely spread both inside and outside the palace.

Song Huizong was not afraid of people's words, so he simply changed the name of Jinxian Lane, where Li Shishi lived outside the Donghua Gate of the imperial city, to Xiaoyu Street.

Those who rule the streets are the way the emperor's official family follows.Song Huizong used the method of changing the name of the street to challenge the world that he, the emperor, was not afraid of people's words, and would often go to Li Shishi's house to meet her.

Since then, fewer people dared to go to Li Shishi's house in Bianliang City, Tokyo.

Of course, there are still bold people, and the famous poet Zhou Bangyan is one.About Li Shishi, Song Huizong and Zhou Bangyan, there is also a story of "the horse is slippery and creamy".

Zhou Bangyan was born with exquisite elegance, learned from hundreds of schools, and was able to compose music according to scores.He and Li Shishi often communicated. Li Shishi was famous for her good songs, and it was Zhou Bangyan who composed music and lyrics for her.

One day on the Queen's birthday, Zhou Bangyan estimated that the officials would not come to Li Shishi's place, so he slipped over to have a tryst with Li Shishi.As a result, Huizong still came, and brought a few catties of Chaozhou tangerines from Guangnan East Road for Li Shishi to taste.Zhou Bangyan couldn't dodge in time, and got under the bed to hide.

Li Shishi peeled a few Chaozhou tangerines, shared them with Huizong, and kept them tenderly for a long time.Fortunately, Huizong still remembered that today was the queen's birthday, and felt that he should go back to accompany her, so he said to Li Shishi, "I'm going to drive back to the palace."

Li Shishi persuaded: "It's already three o'clock at night, and it's cold in the middle of the night. Your majesty's dragon body is important, so just stay."

Huizong hesitated for a moment, but returned to the palace instead of staying overnight with Li Shishi.

Zhou Bangyan crawled out from under the bed, talked with Li Shishi, and wrote what he just heard into a poem "Youth Tour":

And the sword is like water,

Wu Yansheng Xue,

The slender fingers break the new orange.

The brocade curtain is warm at the beginning,

The scent of beasts keeps coming,

Relatively sit and tune the kite.

Ask in a low voice:

To whom?

It's three o'clock in the city,

thick horse cream,

better go,

It is always less crowded.

This old guy Zhou Bangyan is really trying to die!

Chapter 1 How to hook up with Li Shishi

After a few days, Huizong came to Li Shishi's house again.On a whim, Li Shishi sang Zhou Bangyan's "Youth Tour".The lyrics are vivid, beautiful and lingering, Li Shishi loves them very much, and often practice singing according to the score.

When Huizong heard it, the poem was all about the affair in Li Shishi's room that day, so he thought it was written by Li Shishi.Huizong was about to praise a few words, but Li Shishi blurted out that Zhou Bangyan did it.

As soon as Huizong heard this, he knew that Zhou Bangyan must have been in the room that day, and his face immediately changed.This old thing still dares to rob a woman from the official family?

When he returned to the palace in dismay that day, Huizong sent his confidantes to collect Zhou Bangyan's erotic words as evidence of his crime, saying that he was too frivolous to be an official in the court, and he was exiled from Tokyo.

After finishing this matter, Huizong was very happy, so he came to Li Shishi's house again, but Li Shishi went out and did not return, and he didn't see Li Shishi back until the first shift.

Master Li came back, but his face was still full of sadness.Huizong thought she was unwell, so he got up to comfort her.

Before Huizong could finish his comforting words, Li Shishi knelt down, with tears streaming down his face, saying that he was going to see Zhou Bangyan off.Zhou Bangyan was already remorseful, and taught him to sing his new lyrics "Lanling King".

Huizong was very curious, so he asked Li Shishi to sing the new lyrics for himself.

Li Shishi took down his pipa and sang "Lanling King" sadly but not complaining:

The shade of the willows is straight, and there are traces of green in the smoke. On the embankment of the Sui Dynasty, I have seen the water brushed several times, sending off the scenery.When I visit my homeland, who will tell me that I am a tired guest in Jinghua, Changting Road, every year, I should fold mulberry strips over a thousand feet, looking for old traces, drinking wine while mourning, and leaving the banquet with lights.
