Kaiyuan Merry

() The place where Wang Wei and Cui Yingluo came is the West Market. Since the West Market is far away from Sannei, there are many common people's houses around. The products sold in the market are mostly daily life such as clothes, candles, cakes, and medicines. Taste.

Compared with the place that specializes in selling luxury goods in the East City, the West Market is a more prosperous business that takes the civilian route. It is the main industrial and commercial area and the center of economic activities in Chang'an City, so it is also called the "Golden City".

There are many foreign businessmen living in the squares around the West Market, so it has also become an international trade market.There are businessmen from Central Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia, Korea, Baekje, Silla, Japan and other countries and regions. Among them, there are the most "Hu merchants" in Central Asia, Persia, and Dashi. Most of them live in Xishi Or some squares near West Market.

These foreign merchants sold the spices and medicines they brought to the Tang Dynasty, and then bought jewelry, silk and porcelain from the Tang Dynasty.Therefore, there are many shops opened by foreign businessmen in the West Market, such as Persian mansions, jewelry stores, warehouses, wine shops and so on.Among them, many orchid restaurants, where many girls from the Western Regions sang, danced and served wine, were very popular with dudes.

However, the "Qingliu" like Wang Wei is not as bold and open as the real "Kaiyuan Prosperous Age" many years later. The wonderful people of poetry and poetry have taste, as long as they are literati who think they belong to Qingliu, they are all creatures with a sense of superiority.

Wang Wei was classified as Qingliu by others, because he knew how easy it was for the famous Qingliu to become an official. In fact, he himself was not interested in those literary young women, and felt that brothels should sell meat, what to sell? Art, ah, very boring.

This time he and Cui Yingluo came to the West Market. Of course, it is impossible to see some orchids dancing. Even though Cui Yingluo may be very interested in this kind of dance, she is very curious. Getting along with each other, I feel that with Wang Wei's aesthetics, he definitely doesn't like orchids.

Because according to Wang Wei, most of the pure orchids in the Western Regions are disgusting creatures with rough skin, thick pores, thick body and strong hair. They look okay from a distance, but they will definitely disappoint you when you look up close. Cui Yingluo really wants to know how Wang Wei treats orchids. Knowing so well, Wang Wei naturally made a fool of himself, but Cui Yingluo never got to the bottom of it.

Wang Wei appreciates Cui Yingluo very much, because he often utters some words or opinions that transcend the times, and Cui Yingluo accepted all of her doubts from the beginning, and it didn't take too long. Want to know more things, and don't care much about how Wang Wei knows these things.

This is the knowledge of women. A woman who is knowledgeable can always make a man feel comfortable, and it is easier to get a man's pitiful sincerity. Otherwise, Wang Wei would not let go of all guards so quickly and tell Cui Yingluo more knowledge that transcends the times. .

Wang Wei and Cui Yingluo traveled relatively low-key, not even bringing a servant or maid. Only Wang Wei carried a sword to prevent some emergencies. It was different from the swords used by some scholars. Wei's sword is a murderous sword, even though it doesn't even have a name.

Although the West Market is prosperous, Wang Wei, who has experienced more prosperous metropolises, still feels a little disappointed in comparison. the level of economic development of the society.

Because the uniform city structure of Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty was the embodiment of the Tang Empire's feudal order of supremacy of imperial power, subjection of the people, and strict hierarchy.The ruler can not only regulate the activities of families of all classes with the help of closed square walls, limit possible riots, maintain public security in the capital, but also ensure the implementation of the household registration, taxation, and corvee systems.

Wang Wei couldn't help but think that if he was released as a magistrate in the future, he would definitely build a market that conforms to his own ideas, rather than relying on the market system that is not free.

There are many people on the streets of the West Market. As the largest civilian market in Chang'an, it is normal to have so many people. It is different from the situation in the East Market where every stone can hit a nobleman. There are more wealthy businessmen in the West Market. , but their political status is not high, they can only be counted as "civilian" class, so Chang'an City is often "rich in the east and rich in the west".

Cui Yingluo was very happy, as if she was a bird that had escaped from the cage, enjoying the taste of free you to the fullest, and experiencing the life of a "common people". She visited many shops, most of which were selling Jing It's a fancy gadget, but I didn't buy much.

To put it in a more superior way, Cui Yingluo's visit to the West Market is a feeling. As a girl of heaven, she goes to the grassroots to experience a different life. She does not lack any material comforts at all. Whatever she wants, there will always be someone. Prepare it for her, there is no need for her to come out and buy it in person.

So the kind of situation where Cui Yingluo is obviously a famous lady, but she puts down her airs to bargain with merchants will never happen. Although she understands the value of money and is very sensitive to numbers, so she can handle it perfectly when she is running the house. Her mother is ashamed of herself, but the so-called "value" of money is really just a number in her eyes. She just needs to know a little bit, so that the family's income will increase and the expenditure will decrease. Will suffice.

The two walked through the bustling market, and then came to the famous "Fangsheng Pond" in the northwest corner of Xishi City, also known as "Hai Pond". Note that it has been more than ten years since 701.

"Release life" is a Buddhist term. There are "ten kinds of karma" in the volume of "Separation of Good and Evil Retribution Sutra", the sixth of which is "releasing life"; the fourth volume of "Great Compassion Sutra" "There will be all sentient beings in the coming world. Those who have matured in the past. Because of bad karma, they are released into hell as beasts and hungry ghosts."

People in Tang Dynasty who believed in Buddhism bought caught fish, turtles and other aquatic animals and raised them here to accumulate good fortune and pray for blessings.According to legend, when digging the Fangsheng Pond, an ancient stone was dug out, on which was engraved: "A hundred years will be the city, and then it will be the pool".According to people's calculations, it has been more than a hundred years since Daxing City built the "Liren City" here in the Sui Dynasty, and Princess Taiping dug the release pond.

But even this solemn release pool has become a source of joy for the citizens of Chang'an.By the side of the release pool, there are many tourists, the towering Buddhist scriptures, carved beams and painted buildings, and murals are laid out, which is too beautiful to behold.

Cui Yingluo's interest became even higher. She held Wang Wei's hand while buying those specially caught fish and turtles. Of course, she was only responsible for taking these fish and turtles for release and paying for them. Just leave it to Wang Wei.

When Wang Wei was paying the money, a mocking voice suddenly came from his ear: "It seems that you dote on her very much. The famous Chang'an Wang Mojie has found a new love?"

There was a hint of condescension in this voice, like a cat playing with a mouse, but this voice was extremely sweet and piercing, captivating.

Wang Wei frowned, and looked to the side, but it was a female crown. He searched his memory and found that neither his current self nor his previous "self" had ever known such a beautiful female crown.

The female crown looks only about twenty, but whether it is appearance or figure, it is in line with Wang Wei's aesthetics. There is no makeup on her face, and her body has a fragrance like an orchid in an empty valley. She is like the inviolable goddess, but Also like that charming and slutty witch, who simply makes men want to stop.And now she is just wearing an ordinary Taoist robe. If she puts on more beautiful clothes, her charm will definitely rise geometrically.

To be honest, in this kind of Buddhist land, it is really weird to meet such a female crown who is clearly a cultivator. Wang Wei restrained his mind and did not act too moved by the beauty of the female crown. He first wanted to What was clear was who this female crown was, and why she seemed so hostile towards her.

He still asked calmly: "I don't know who my aunt is, and why do you know my name?"

After asking this sentence, Wang Wei suddenly became suspicious. Why did this female crown recognize herself based on her appearance? You must know that even though Wang Wei is "famous in Chang'an", people know more about Wang Wei. Name, and then imagine his appearance based on his deeds. After all, this is not the information age, and there are no celebrities.

So, it could only be met at some banquets?But... I still have no impression, or in other words, I have never noticed such a beautiful female crown at the banquet.

The female crown always had a mocking smile on her face, as if she was looking at a scumbag. If she had admired Wang Wei's talent before, but after knowing that Wang Wei had something to do with the most important sister in her heart, , she turned her appreciation into disgust. She was very interested in black-bellied and hypocritical men. The feeling of slowly knocking off the man's perfect mask must be very good...

In all fairness, Wang Wei in disguise is really a pleasing man, his handsome and elegant appearance is not too eye-catching, so it will not make women feel insecure (like the sunny and handsome Cui Zongzhi It will make women feel very unsafe, and there is a possibility of being ntr at any time), on the contrary, his warm and jade-like temperament is very reassuring, and his elegant gestures fully interpret the romanticism of the family.

In addition, Wang Weina always maintains a gentle and calm appearance, which can make people feel good. It is perfect to match the incomparable talent of the younger generation.

It's a pity that this perfection is just an appearance. What does the inner Wang Wei look like?Not many people fully understand it, because Wang Wei seldom shows his true self, and you can only see his cheeks with a gentle smile. Such a smile seems to be respect for others, but in fact it should be respect for others. the contempt of others.

Maybe many years later, someone will be ironic like this-Li Linfu, the swordsman with a honeyed belly, and Mojie, the king of swords hidden in his smile.
