Landlord of the Tang Dynasty

Chang'an City, Dongshi
The East Market is different from the West Market. Because most of the high-ranking officials and nobles live in the east of the city, the goods sold in the East Market are relatively high-end items.Moreover, there are many places of enjoyment such as theaters and academies.Entering Dongshi from the north is Changping Cang. From Changping Cang to the left, there is a release pool and a release pavilion beside the pool.It was late January, early spring, and the ice and snow had almost melted, and the weather was getting warmer, so some students came out to hold literary and poetry ceremonies.

To welcome the spring, why not write poems to welcome the spring?Why brag about B without making a fuss?

Today there is an article from Luonan, which is five short poems by Mei Lan, Pine Bamboo and Chrysanthemum. I heard that they were written by the most talented person in Chang'an today, so many people are here to read them.In addition, because the road was blocked by heavy snow and it was too cold outside, many students only went out today. Therefore, only a small half of people knew about Xu Qing's arrival in Chang'an.

At this moment, it is time for everyone to discuss Xu Qing.It's nothing more than reading Xu Qing's poems and imitating a few more. Now that there are imitations, there will be flattery.The students with a bigger vision showed Xu Qing's achievements in politics, and also cheered each other up, saying that they would be like Xu Qingruru in the future, and so on.

But seeing a young master by the release pool, and three or five burly men beside him, he was not conspicuous among the crowd.But if someone with a heart sees it, they can still see that this young man is extraordinary, and at such a young age, he has a unique aura of a high-ranking person.

Hearing the comments of the scholars and students, the young man couldn't help asking the people around him: "Which gentleman are they talking about Mr. Xu? Why is there no one named Xu among my teachers?"

Someone beside him said softly: "Young master, that Mr. Xu is t...it is Mr. Xu Qingxu that the master often said, and he is stationed at the Xuanwu Gate in the palace."

The young master couldn't help but nodded and said: "Oh, so it's him. I always hear from my father that he is so capable, so young and promising, and let me approach him to ask him for advice. I want to see it today, this Xu Qing What's the matter,"

Unexpectedly, his words were heard by the people around him, and they all scoffed, and said: "Young children speak without restraint, let the strong wind blow away."

Some people also commented: "Which kid is this? His tone is so loud,"

The guard next to the young master saw that these people were all looking over, and felt bad, so he quickly took the young master away.At this time, there was a sound of gong in the Fangsheng Pavilion, it was the organizer of this literary meeting who came, and seeing him holding the five little poems by Xu Qing, everyone's eyes were attracted to him at once.

The young master also took the opportunity to find a hidden place, sat down properly, and listened to it just like the scholars.Naturally, the process of the essay meeting was nothing more than compliments on Xu Qing, and some students even hid their faces and wiped their tears, saying that they finally waited until Xu Gong published new poems.Some people feel that they have written it down. They are the scholars of Firework Alley, who specialize in writing songs and dramas for the fairies in Firework Alley.The guests on the east side of the city have a high status, so they naturally have high requirements.Sometimes, these scholars who hold pens also come out to receive some female guests in person, and sometimes they are male PRs.But today, they are here to learn Xu Qing's new poems, to see who can compose the music quickly and well, whoever can use Xu Qing's poems to make a big hit, even enter the house, and the next time the public relations place will be more upscale .

Anyway, the purpose of the people who came to this literary meeting was different, but they all praised Xu Qing, and the degree of their appreciation was far higher than the honor that Xu Qing should have.The young master frowned after listening for a while, he said softly: "It's not a good thing that Xu Qing has such a reputation, it seems that someone wants to kill him."

It must be said that it is a bit strange that the word flattering and killing appeared in this young man's mouth.However, his guard next to him felt nothing, instead he nodded respectfully and said: "Young master is right."

The young master listened again, and thought to himself, the praise of Xu Qing, the old and new words have been used over and over again, and now it is repeated again, don't you find it annoying?He waved his hand and said: "Let's go back, um...not at my own place, let's go to Xu Qingshou's Xuanwu Gate to have a look,"

The guard said with some embarrassment: "My lord, it's getting late today, why don't you go tomorrow?"

The little boy was not angry, he just nodded and said: "Yes."

Xuanwumen

Xu Qing found out the problem with the sanitary napkin, and decided to solve it.First of all, there was the problem of water leakage. He didn't know how much blood the girl had when she came to his aunt. It would be a bit embarrassing if it was more than Zhao Gong's pee at one time.He also remembered that women in later generations had a word for "blood collapse", thinking that after all this, the amount of blood should be quite large, so it's better to be cautious.In his own experiment, Zhao Gong imitated the mice, and there were only five real mice. If one had suffered from "Wanshanhong", Xu Qing would not be able to make sense of the other girls.

What is thin and waterproof?

Xu Qing sat on the couch, closed his eyes and thought.There is a thick blanket on the couch, and on the left and right sides, there are two pots of vigorous fire.Beside the brazier, Zhao Gong, who had just finished a bath and changed his clothes, was sitting by the fire to roast his hair, his mouth still pouted.

Xu Qing glanced at him and asked with a smile: "Zhao Gong, what do you think is this thin and waterproof thing?"

Zhao Gong muttered: "There are oil-paper umbrellas in the palace, and the oil-paper umbrellas are thin and waterproof."

Xu Qing's eyes lit up and he said, "That's right, isn't the oiled paper umbrella just made of tung oiled paper? Sure, Zhao Gong, where do you think you can find this oiled paper umbrella? No, do you think there is oiled paper in the palace?"

"I don't know about other places..." Zhao Gong thought for a while and said, "But the general must have it. He has all the tools for making the palace."

Xu Qing quietly asked: "Zhao Gong, can you get it?"

"The young one is just a eunuch, the general supervisor belongs to the imperial court..." Zhao Gong spread his hands and said, "However, there is a eunuch in Wan Guifei's palace, his supernatural powers can be obtained, I can go for the master."

Xu Qing immediately took out the silver from his pocket and handed it to Zhao Gong, saying: "Go and ask him to get some good oil paper, which should be cut neatly, and then there are also good medicine jade, let's take some too." .”

Zhao Gong suddenly complained: "Oh, I have traveled three times today, it seems that I must find a new job soon."

Knowing that he was joking, Xu Qing also smiled and said: "Go, anyway, there will be a little eunuch in a few days, and I will cook for you here."

Zhao Gong immediately fixed his hair with a hairpin, and then ran out.Xu Qing looked at the sponge in his hand and decided to do another experiment. How many sponges would it take to absorb a catty of water?Clarify this question, and then ask an old court lady how many times she came the most when she was young.Besides, the amount of a catty is not underestimating them, right?
