Chapter 470 Midnight Singing
Wang Anshi and Wang Yu both looked embarrassed when they heard this. He was not a romantic talent like Liu Yong or Yan Shu, but a great scholar who was in charge of the world's cultural context. A place like a brothel is really a bit... .
"When I was studying, I read a lot of Song lyrics and memorized some. Unfortunately, they were just words. The singing method of Song lyrics has long been lost. Now that we have come to the Song Dynasty, it would be a pity not to listen to how Song lyrics are sung. Before, I have been to Shuazhou County, but the singers there are not as good as those in Kaifeng." Shen Long didn't seem to realize Wang Anshi's embarrassment, and turned to look at Wang Yu, "Does Yuanze know that the famous prostitute in Kaifeng City is the best at singing lyrics? Can you take me to see you?"
So that's it! Wang Anshi and his son felt a lot more relaxed at the same time, and then secretly blamed themselves in their hearts. How could a master like Master Shen indulge in women? We just thought of going elsewhere. We really shouldn't .
"I have heard from some of my peers that there was a singing girl named Chu Yun'er in Biyue Xuan. She sang extremely well, especially Liu Sanbian's long and short sentences, which were extremely wonderful when she sang them. There is a man named Zhou Nan whose singing skills are the best in Beijing." Wang Yu couldn't say that he had been to these places in front of his father, so he had to ask his friends to tell him. In his opinion, since Shen Long had said before that Liu Yong could leave his name to future generations. , naturally I like his words.
"It's so good. It's getting late now. I just happened to go to Biyuexuan for dinner and enjoy the music of this girl Yun'er. Oh, by the way, I heard that Grandma Cao's meat cakes in Kaifeng City and Zhouqiao Shop's Roast Pork skin and meat are very good. Can Yuanze ask someone to buy some and send them to Biyuexuan?" After saying that, Shen Long turned back to look at Wang Anshi, "Jiefu must still be reading these fragments and "The Biography of Shang Yang", so there is no need. Come with us, and after you finish enjoying the music, Yuanze and I will go back to our house to rest."
"Then I will go back first and let my servants arrange accommodation for the Taoist Priest!" Wang Anshi was also quite embarrassed before. If he didn't go, he would be afraid of Shen Long's objections. It would be bad if he went. If the censor saw him reading a book, he said Maybe Yueci's marriage and Xuanma's appointment as prime minister will be postponed. At this time, those who are watching him will not miss this opportunity.
After entering the city gate of Kaifeng, the team was divided into two groups. Shen Long and Wang Yu rode horses to Biyuexuan. Wang Anshi hurriedly returned home to prepare a place for Shen Long. Several servants rushed all the way to buy Granny Cao for Shen Long. Meatloaf and grilled pork rinds.
Shen Long was tall and handsome, riding a horse through the busy city, attracting countless young ladies and young wives to watch. Even Wang Yu was at a disadvantage. He seemed to like the local characters in the city very much, and would say weird things from time to time. He said, "It's a pity that Zhang Zeduan is not born yet, otherwise it would be good for him to draw these scenery and take them home for collection."
Soon they were approaching Biyuexuan. Wang Yu slowed down his horse and said sheepishly, "Taoist Shen, you are also aware of my father's situation now, so how about I pretend to be a new scholar in Beijing for a while?"
"I understand, but if this is the case, then I'm afraid it will be difficult to call Miss Yun'er and Miss Zhou Nan over, right?" Shen Long has never eaten pork and has seen pigs running. If Wang Yu's family reputation is used, of course these two girls will Come out, but if an unknown guy rashly calls your name, they probably won't leave, right?
"Um, how about I write one or two new lyrics and send them over?" Wang Yu was prepared. He was still very confident in his talent. Since Liu Sanbian, this style is still very popular in brothels. .
"That's not necessary, I have prepared something here." As he spoke, he had already arrived at the door. The clever turtle took the reins and helped the two of them off the horse. The mother of the brothel hurriedly saw that the two of them were very popular. He came up and said, "You two gentlemen, please come in quickly!"
Shen Long casually took out a pearl as big as a pigeon egg from his sleeve and threw it over. The madam immediately regarded the two of them as high-rollers and took them to the best courtyard. Do you two know a girl well?"
"I heard that you have a guy named Chu Yun'er and a guy named Zhou Nan who sing well. Let's call them all over!" Shen Long sat at the top and said carelessly.
"Oh, what a coincidence, you two arrived a little late. Miss Chu Yun'er was invited by a scholar named Shi Yue, and Zhou Nan was entertaining an official named Han from Kansai..." The old bustard His face looked troubled.
"Well, as long as the two of them come over, this thing will belong to them." Shen Long was a little impatient when he heard her rumbling, and he took out two things from his sleeves and threw them on the table.
The Madam's eyes immediately widened as soon as she saw it. What Shen Long threw out were two mirrors made of unknown materials. It could be said that every detail was visible, and they looked exactly the same as real people. Even if the Madam had been in the gold-selling cave for a long time, she would not see it. Having seen this kind of treasure, he immediately threw aside the scholar surnamed Shi and the official surnamed Han, and immediately called Chu Yun'er and Zhou Nan over.
When the two of them came in, they saw Shen Long playing with an object held up by three legs. In front of the object was something like a big eye, and behind it was a rectangular box. She didn't know what it was used for.
"I don't understand this. Yuanze can order a few songs. If there's anything he doesn't sing well, let them sing again." After cleaning up, Shen Long pointed the object at Chu Yun'er and Zhou Nan, eating the meat. Pancakes and pork rinds are ready to enjoy the song.
The two of them were quite surprised, but when they thought of the valuable treasure they had just sent, they immediately put their unhappiness behind them and started singing according to the arrangement of the young man dressed as a scholar.
This young man was indeed proficient in music. Even if there was a slight mistake in his singing, he would immediately point it out and start singing again. The two of them left with unfulfilled feelings until the moon was shining brightly.
Only Zhou Nan and Chu Yun'er were left looking at each other, singing for two whole hours. During this period, they did not recite poems, write lyrics, or taste wine and tea. What on earth were these two people here for?
Wang Yu was also quite puzzled, but he was too embarrassed to ask, so he took Shen Long back to his home, sent him to the bedroom with Wang Anshi, and sent someone to wash him before saying goodbye and leaving.
The two of them did not rest immediately after going down. Instead, they went to the study to discuss in detail what they had encountered today and what was on the few remaining pages. They did not leave the study until three o'clock in the morning, ready to go back. rest.
But when they arrived in the courtyard, they vaguely seemed to hear singing coming from Shen Long's room. Wang Yu could still vaguely tell that the singing seemed to be sung by Zhou Nan and Chu Yun'er.
