Back to the end of Ming Dynasty to be a warlord

Chapter 12
As soon as Yang Chao arrived in front of the door, he saw a maid coming out. After asking, she was sure it was Huansha Pavilion.

Huansha Pavilion is on the west side of the third floor of Nanshi Building. Only the most popular girls can live on the entire third floor. Except for the three houses on the far east, there are as many as ten rooms on the north, south, and west sides.

The maid immediately guessed that Yang Chao was the guest invited by the prince, so she went to report it first, and then went to invite Miss Qingmei.

After the maid came out, Yang Chao saw a person had already come out.

When the man saw Yang Chao, he saluted first, "This is Young Master Yang."

Yang Chao paid homage: "Your step should be Prince Wang."

Prince Wang said: "I've heard about Mr. Yang's name for a long time, but I don't want to be so young when I see it today."

Yang Chao laughed and said, "Young Master Wang is laughing at you."

I don't have any famous name, I must have heard about myself from Mr. Zhou, and it was just helping Mr. Zhou to meet Liu Rushi.

Mr. Wang had already stood up, raised his hand and said, "Please, Mr. Yang!"

Huansha Pavilion is a duplex house. There is a small room at the entrance, and there is a gauze screen next to it. The main room is behind the screen.

Bypassing the screen is a small hall, in which there are all kinds of exquisite furniture.

There is a round table in the center, with delicious food and wine on the table, and there is a young man sitting beside the table. book boy.

When Young Master Zhou saw Yang Chao, he also stood up, but he was not as enthusiastic as Young Master Wang.

The woman also stood up with a smile on her face, and she had already walked over, holding Yang Chao's arm naturally, very enthusiastically.

"Young Master Yang is late, you should be punished with three cups!"

Yang Chao was pulled to sit down by the woman, and Prince Wang also sat down together, and then he introduced that the woman was Bisha.

Bi Sha enthusiastically poured wine for Yang Chao.

As a red card, it is very clear that when others come here to treat guests, it is natural to take care of the guests first.

After exchanging pleasantries, Prince Wang suddenly remembered something, and said to Bisha: "Miss Bisha, Mr. Yang is a great talent. You don't need to tell us. You have to tell Mr. Yang about your life experience."

Bisha glared at Prince Wang, and then said: "Hey, the little girl's nickname is Gao Lan, and she comes from a poor background. My father was originally a Kaifeng Dianshi. Zhang thief attacked Xuzhou, and my father was ordered to rescue him, so he was convicted. The little girl was also arrested. Sell ​​it, and it’s here.”

Prince Wang sighed: "Xuzhou fell, this is the nine years since Chongzhen."

Bisha said: "It's exactly nine years."

Women in Kaifeng had a reputation of gentleness and beauty in the Ming Dynasty.

This Bisha turned out to be a son of an official. Although he was a minor official, he was still an official.However, such petty officials are often the most pitiful. Once they encounter a crisis, they are easily used as scapegoats by their superiors and blamed for others.

Kaifeng Mansion almost became the capital in the early Ming Dynasty. After Zhu Yuanzhang conquered Kaifeng, he originally wanted to establish Kaifeng as the capital, but changed Bianliang Road to Kaifeng Mansion in Beijing. Finally, he made the capital Nanjing under the balance, and then removed the word Beijing in front of Kaifeng Mansion.

But he entrusted his eldest son King Zhou to Kaifeng Mansion, because Kaifeng Mansion is one of the most metropolises in the world, second only to the two capitals of the north and the south in the Ming Dynasty.

However, there is no small official like Dian Shi in Kaifeng Mansion. Bisha's father is probably the county Dian Shi under the jurisdiction of Kaifeng.

Young Master Zhou didn't speak all the time, and Yang Chao didn't say much, because until now Yang Chao still didn't understand what this Young Master Wang wanted from him.

After some introduction just now, Yang Chao knew that Mr. Wang's name is Wang Xiao, and Mr. Zhou's name is Zhou Rui. Neither of them has a name, because under normal circumstances, people who haven't entered school don't know how to pick up characters.

After entering school, it is usually given by one's own teacher, which is called giving words.Yang Chao didn't go to school either, he was just a boy at this time, not even a scholar, so he didn't have any writing skills.

"By the way, didn't the prince want to give me that soft cigarette just now?"

After talking about her own affairs and making Wang Xiao feel emotional, Bisha spoke in a timely manner.

Wang Xiaodao: "This is not possible. I told you to invite our Mr. Zhou to drink. And this soft smoke, in Hangzhou, apart from the government-run Hangzhou weaving weaving, our Mr. Zhou's house can also weave. As long as our Mr. Zhou is happy, Have as much as you want."

Just as she was talking, Bisha's maid came back and said that there was a master Juren in Qingmei's room.

Wang Xiao's complexion darkened, and he couldn't help but think of what happened to him in the past few days. Although his family has a lot of money, he is the son of a merchant after all. Compared with these famous school seeds, his status is only one level behind. frustrated.

This is also the reason why he invited Yang Chao.

His family is a wealthy businessman in Hangzhou, and Zhou Rui's family is related by marriage. He heard that Zhou Rui was in Nanjing. He found Zhou Rui immediately after he came, and went to the brothel the next time.

Naturally, he had been to Meixianglou, and he had also heard Yang Chao's name from Zhou Rui. He knew that Yang Chao helped Zhou Rui meet Liu Rushi, but it was a pity that Zhou Rui refused to meet Liu Rushi in the end because of his face.

But he had heard about Yang Chao's abilities.

Wang Xiao inquired about the situation at that time from Meixiang Building, and heard that Yang Chao sent a letter, but Liu Rushi immediately lost his composure.Wang Xiao guessed by herself that the letter must be a poem, and it must be of high level, otherwise it would be impossible for Liu Rushi, a very talented and arrogant famous prostitute, to appreciate it.

A poem can impress Liu Rushi, which shows that Yang Chao is very skilled.He is rich but suffers from lack of talent for reading, while Yang Chao is talented but has no fame, so it is worth making friends with.So he found out Yang Chao's name, and knew that it was a nearby family. Although the reputation was not very good, Wang Xiao not only didn't care about his reputation as a scoundrel, but wanted to make friends with him.

Since Yang Chao has a talent for poetry and often likes to play around on the Qinhuai River, he will definitely hang out in Fengyuechang in the future, and because he can impress this talented Liu Rushi, it will only be a matter of time before Yang Chao becomes famous. It is also a good story.

To make friends with Yang Chao, based on the stories he heard from the servants and maids in Meixianglou, naturally it is best to invite Yang Chao in a place like brothel.

Hearing that Juren took Qingmei, Wang Xiao was not interested in messing around with Bisha anymore, so she remembered Yang Chao's poem.

Curiously asked: "I don't know what kind of masterpiece Yang Gongzi sent Liu Rushi that day, can you enlighten me?"

Not only the talents in Nanjing City, but also the talents in the entire Jiangnan have the habit of giving their poems to famous prostitutes in Qinhuai, especially the poems, which are especially for these famous prostitutes, because after being sung by these famous prostitutes, they will soon become famous. will become famous, and courtesans will be even more famous because they are the first to sing those famous masterpieces.

Wang Xiao guessed that what Yang Chao sent was either poems or words, more likely poems, because he had never heard Liu Rushi and Li Xiangjun sing.

Yang Chao had been guessing the purpose of Wang Xiao's invitation to him. At this moment, he suddenly understood two points, probably because of that poem.

But in the eyes of the people of the Ming Dynasty, that poem may not be a masterpiece on the stage, it may only be regarded as a country tune.

Yang Chao waved his hand and said, "Where is there any masterpiece. It's just a ditty."

Wang Xiao was even more curious, what kind of minor tune could impress Liu Rushi.

"Mr. Yang might as well chant it and listen to it."

Yang Chao shook his head and said, "That's all for being clumsy. If you can't get on the stage, you won't be making a fool of yourself."

Wang Xiao laughed and didn't insist, but she felt a little unhappy, thinking that Yang Chao looked down on him.

But he doesn't want to turn his back on him. Although he doesn't have the talent for reading, he has a very high EQ in business, and he will never offend people easily. Even if Yang Chao is not an important person, since he invited him here, he just wanted to make friends. Not to offend.

So Wang Xiao continued: "I don't know how a ditty can impress Liu Rushi. Liu Dongdong is a beautiful woman with great poetry, and even famous people like Qian Qianyi and Chen Zilong are full of praise."

Yang Chao's performance that day was also a fluke, most of them were improvised, and he did not expect to succeed in the end.

Of course, there is also a certain truth in it, which was figured out by Yang Chao in his previous life, and it can be used to chase girls to no avail.

Yang Chao said with a smile: "It's just a trick, the prince laughs at it."

Wang Xiao said inexplicably, "Please enlighten me, Mr. Yang."

Yang Chao didn't hide anything, and said: "At that time, I played a flute, which touched Miss Liu Rushi's heart of sorrow. Mr. Zhou was infatuated with Miss Liu. He stayed with her for several days, and he did not give in to Chengmen Lixue. It is enough to express my feelings, then Liu Rushi is definitely not indifferent. I copied another folk song, which made Miss Liu fall in love with the words and the scene, and was moved for a while. That's why I want to meet Mr. Zhou."

Wang Xiao is also a veteran in the field of love, so he immediately understood Yang Chao's methods, but he still admires Yang Chao's wit and quickness in grasping people's hearts and opportunities. Instantly thought of such a way.

At this time Zhou Rui became excited after listening to it. He seldom spoke because he was not very willing to come to the brothel.

He didn't insist on inviting Yang Chao to come, and he didn't refuse to invite him to sit with him.

In fact, he also wanted to learn something from Yang Chao. If he could impress Liu Rushi with his own ability, he would naturally wish for it.

"Mr. Yang is serious about what he said. Miss Liu really has a little heart for this servant?"

Zhou Rui was quite anxious.He didn't expect that Yang Chao would say that Liu Rushi was tempted by him. He completely thought that it was Yang Chao's poems that shocked Liu Rushi and allowed him to meet him. Out of self-esteem, he refused at that time, feeling that he had met Liu Rushi in a deceptive way. If so, it is an insult to Liu Rushi.

Seeing Zhou Rui's expression, Wang Xiao sighed in his heart. Zhou Rui was his cousin who had always been obsessed with Liu Rushi, which worried his family.

Naturally, Wang Xiao didn't want to see Zhou Rui sinking deeper and deeper, lovesickness is not easy to cure.

Wang Xiao also knew that the heartbeat that Yang Chao was talking about was definitely not the heartbeat, it was more about being moved rather than emotionally moved. To put it bluntly, Liu Rushi was just pity Zhou Rui, not affectionate towards Zhou Rui.

Wang Xiao immediately turned away and said to Yang Chao: "Mr. Yang, I have a problem right now. I wonder if Mr. Yang can do anything about it?"

Yang Chao said: "My lord, please tell me."

Wang Xiaodao: "I want to give someone a big gift. But this person is clean and will not accept any money. But this person's birthday is coming soon, so I want to give a birthday gift."

Wang Xiao wanted to give a gift, but the person who gave the gift was honest and did not accept gold or silver. However, the other party's mother was about to have a big birthday, so he wanted to give a birthday gift.

Yang Chao nodded. The other party was honest and a filial son, so it was very appropriate to give his mother a birthday present.

Yang Chao couldn't help but think of the cheats on gift giving that later generations read in which book.

Immediately said: "The so-called gift, what is important is that it should be suitable for the occasion, express your heart, and express your intention! A birthday gift is naturally appropriate."

Wang Xiao paused immediately, clapped her hands and said, "Miao Miao Miao, Mr. Yang said it well. Naturally, giving gifts should be suitable for the occasion, expressing one's own heart, and sending it to the other party's heart to satisfy the other party. It's really an appropriate occasion. , Express your heart, and express your ideas. I didn't expect Mr. Yang to be proficient in gift giving, so he will teach me this time."
