"That man's name is Lu Xiangjun, and he is said to be from Jiangdu..."
As Hou Mochen answered, she quietly looked at her aunt's face.
Sure enough, Mrs. Xiao was in a trance, Jiang Du...that terrible night was the beginning of a nightmare. As long as she was alive, there would be no end.
Soldiers like wolves and tigers swarmed in holding torches, the palace people screamed and howled, and the loyal ministers were killed one after another, and they knelt down weakly and begged for mercy...
The Sui Dynasty was over, but the war had been going on for a long time.
Ms. Xiao shook her head gently. It contained her best memories, but it was also the source of nightmares. God really knows how to play tricks on people.
At this time, she only chuckled and said: "He is actually from Jiangdu, and he is very smart. He must be a good person, right?"
Hou Mochen felt relieved, "I've never seen her before, so it's hard to say... Even within a few days of coming here, her name has spread all over the streets of Chang'an. It's not easy for dignitaries to see her. So I just came to her door."
Many people are intimidated by poetry, let alone performing poems on stage."
Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but smile, "She is used to seeing talented people from the south of the Yangtze River. If she underestimates the talented people from Guanxi, she will suffer a lot... Alas, there are many unlearned and unskilled people in Chang'an City, so Jiangling can't be used."
To compare, what did those people do at the poetry meeting in Liangyi Palace?"
Seeing that her aunt was happy, Hou Mochen also joked: "The emperor probably regrets it too..." After speaking, he pointed at the paper on the table and said with a smile: "Isn't this going to end personally? I won't let my ministers sing again."
Is the poem written?"
Madam Xiao glanced at her slightly, and the amorous look in that moment made Madam Hou Mo and Chen stunned. She thought to herself that her aunt was so beautiful that she was loved by the world. It was a pity that maybe because of this, she was the only one trapped in the house now, right?
Mrs. Xiao's mood gradually improved, "Don't talk about your Majesty, it will be bad in the ears of others. Do you think that if I invite him to come and play a song, will Mr. Lu Xiang come?"
Hou Mochen laughed and said, "Who can refuse Madam's invitation? It's just that Mr. Lu Xiang was from a humble background, and now he has fallen into the world. If I invite him to meet him, I'm afraid someone will say something about it if word spreads."
Mrs. Xiao shook her head nonchalantly, "There are a lot of bad words, so don't worry about that. Just invite her to come over tomorrow night. If she doesn't want to come, there's no need to force her.
If you are from Jiangdu and move to Jiangling, you are considered a native of mine, and you must treat me with courtesy."
……………………
In a courtyard southeast of Caiyu Square, the sound of Xianweng Xianweng's piano could be heard faintly, but it was not in tune. It was obviously just the owner playing with it at will, which made Xia Feng become irritated and he played much harder than before.
This is a courtyard with three entrances. It is not very big and is quite common in Caiyufang.
This is where Lu Xiangjun, a famous prostitute in Jiangling, lives now. As her reputation spread, an ordinary courtyard became no longer ordinary.
The literati in Chang'an City came here one after another, and they were proud to meet Lord Lu Xiang. The dignitaries also sent people to invite people. They actually wanted to see something new, and whether they listened to the piano or not was the second best. After all, the name of Zhongnan in Chang'an City is now
The prostitute is not seen very often.
Therefore, even in broad daylight, there are many prying eyes in front of the courtyard gate. It has only been a few days since Lu Xiangjun came to Chang'an, and his reputation seems to be as good as when he was in Jiangling, or even worse.
……………………
At this time, Lu Xiangjun was in the quiet room of the back house, resting his cheeks in deep thought, his light fingers gently playing with the strings, and a lot of noise flowed out.
Compared with a year ago, she has lost some weight and her fair face has become a lot darker. These are all traces of the journey.
She stayed in Jiangling for many years. She was a little frightened when Jiangling fell. Perhaps there was too much bad news. People who had interacted with her in the past were either escorted to Chang'an or lost their lives, so she waited until the situation calmed down.
You are excited.
She set off from Jiangling and went up the Shuo River to Shu. She first went to Jinguan City to look for the ancestral hall of Prime Minister Zhuge, and then entered Guanxi from Shu to Chang'an.
It took half a year to complete the journey, and she had spent almost all her savings over the years. However, Chang'an was the destination of her trip. The heart of a country was always safer than Jiangling, right?
When I arrived in Chang'an, I bought a house. I didn't have much money left. I made some preparations and reported it to the government. Then I resumed my old business and started hanging banners to welcome guests.
After she became an artist, she no longer lived in a brothel and became her own boss. With her reputation, she didn't have to worry about anyone patronizing her. She was similar to those stars who later opened studios.
And with her skills, she never had to worry about food no matter where she went, and she never had the idea of finding a good man to marry. No matter how talented or powerful you were, it would not cause much trouble with her.
, because she had heard too many stories of being unlucky, her disappointment with the men in the world was deeply rooted in her heart.
In other words, I am short of money right now, so I only look at people's wallets and don't talk about feelings with me.
But then again, as long as we are human, how can we be truly ruthless?
She was upset today because she heard the news of Master Xiao's death.
A year ago, she met this Liang domestic official in a thatched cottage by the river. It was a great time for both guest and host. She did not want to come to Chang'an today. She originally wanted to find out how the surrendered ministers of Liang were doing.
, but I got such news first.
In a bad mood, he willfully stopped receiving guests and planned to stay in the house all day, just to pay homage to his old friend from Jiangling.
As for going to Xiao Lang's grave...well, forget it, there is no such friendship.
In fact, what depressed her was not the news itself, but the fear and sentimentality about the uncertainty of human affairs. It was precisely for this reason that she left Jiangling and came to Chang'an.
And that wasn't the only thing that troubled her. Chang'an was different from Jiangling. Although Jiangling had many polite people, there were still some scoundrels, but Chang'an was even worse. Barbarians could be seen everywhere.
For someone like her to hang banners outside without the support of a brothel, her reputation would be small, but once her reputation grows, troubles will inevitably arise.
Recently, the family backgrounds of the powerful people who have come to invite me have become more and more prominent, and their tone has become more and more tough. There are only a few people who want to listen to Qin, and there is no need to ask whether they want to kiss Fangze, or want her to marry her.
Enter the house and become a concubine.
Yesterday evening, a small climax (harmony) was reached. The main branch of the Chen family in Chang'an sent someone to come and told her face to face with a sneer that she could either go to the house and meet her husband, or there would be no need to think about leaving Chang'an again.
.
The powerful people in Chang'an were never polite to others, and the only people who could make them smile were the powerful people who were equally matched. The overbearing and rude atmosphere here frightened Mr. Lu Xiang.
That's not all, the trouble is still to come. Just when she is wondering whether she should sneak away secretly, or quickly find two knowledgeable backers to protect her like she did in Gangneung.
The two maids brought from Jiangling had already rushed in in a panic, "Madam, something is not going well. Someone knocked on the door. Let's go and hide..."
