The advantage of the bead curtain is that people outside cannot see the scene inside, but the people inside can see the outside clearly. Now Mingzhu is carefully looking at the woman sitting in the hall through the bead curtain.
guest.
I saw that she was in her mid-twenties. In ancient times, a woman of this age was considered to have passed her prime. However, her dress did not look like a young woman. So Mingzhu understood that she must also be from ordinary times.
Kangli. The woman is good-looking, and her clothes are gorgeous. It can be seen that she should be a relatively successful prostitute. But her eyes are full of deep sorrow.
"Girl, what's your name?" Fang Mingzhu looked at her through the curtain for a while, and when she saw that she hadn't spoken yet, she asked.
As soon as she heard Mingzhu speak, the woman was shocked to realize that she had been distracted. She was a little embarrassed and bowed slightly:
"Just call me Biluan."
"It turns out to be Sister Biluan," Mingzhu said calmly, "I'm sorry, I don't meet outsiders, so I can only talk to you like this. I'm rude."
"You're welcome." Bi Luan couldn't think of what to call Mingzhu for a moment. He called her master, but she sounded very young. Calling her girl didn't seem to be respectful enough.
Mingzhu also understood this, so she didn't correct her and just said:
"I don't know what kind of jewelry Sister Biluan wants to wear."
Before Bi Luan spoke, he sighed deeply:
"A few days ago, I saw Fu'er's collar, and I wanted to ask you to help me get something. However, you were not around at that time, but I didn't want to borrow the thing I wanted to get from someone else, so I
I didn’t do it. This time I heard that you can finally receive people who want jewelry in person, so I came. I think I should be the first customer to come to your door, right? "
Mingzhu smiled softly:
"Sister, you are really your first guest. I wonder what exactly you want to buy?"
The sorrow between Bi Luan's brows became heavier again:
"I'm not afraid of your laughter. I fell in love with a man, but he didn't accept my feelings. So I wanted to give him something..."
Mingzhu nodded secretly:
'It turned out that I wanted to give someone a souvenir, and I was rejected after having unrequited love. After all, it is not a face-saving thing. No wonder she is not willing to borrow it from others.'
Biluan continued:
"He is a very, very talented person. The first time he came, I could see that he was not the kind of frivolous kid who walks in the streets and alleys."
"Then he's here..." Mingzhu blurted out. She didn't mean to embarrass Bi Luan. She really didn't understand that since that man was not a frivolous kid who hung out in Huajie and Liuxiang, how could he go to Bi Luan's place?
Bi Luan didn't feel that Mingzhu's question was abrupt. Maybe people in their profession didn't care much about these words anymore, so they just explained very seriously:
"He was taken there by his friends."
'That's it.' Mingzhu understood. It turned out that as long as she didn't go there on her own initiative, but was taken by a friend, it would be acceptable and understandable. Mingzhu couldn't help but sighed in her heart: 'Women, it's always so easy to forgive yourself.
The man I love.'
"Sister, please continue."
"He is a very, very talented person," Bi Luan repeated this sentence for the second time. "He won the Jinshi at a very young age, but his official career was not smooth and he was just demoted."
Mingzhu listened quietly, and she began to feel that the story was more attractive than she thought. Biluan continued:
"Although he is full of talents, his family is poor, so he has no way to stay in Chang'an. I wanted to support him and help him with his affairs, but he refused because he did not want to accept help from an irrelevant person."
'Rejected? This man is still interesting.' Mingzhu thought to herself.
"Recently I heard that he will be forced to leave Chang'an and go back to his hometown, because he can no longer maintain his life in Chang'an, but I don't want him to go, I want him to stay. I believe in his talent, and I
I felt that as long as he stayed, he would definitely have a chance. So I wanted to give him some gold, but he wouldn't want it. So I came up with a way to see if I could use gold to hit something, which made it difficult for him.
I refused, ignoring the value of the gold itself, so that he could accept my gold. I didn't care whether he sold or pawned the gold, I just wanted him to persevere in Chang'an and wait for an opportunity.
"
Mingzhu was moved by Biluan:
'What an infatuated woman, she actually has such good intentions to help a man who doesn't love her at all!'
Then Mingzhu said:
"Okay, I understand what you mean, let me help you find a solution."
"Thank you." When Bi Luan heard that Mingzhu was willing to help him, he couldn't help but feel happy, and the sadness in his eyes faded a little.
"But I still want to ask a question."
"Please speak."
"Gold is limited after all. Even if you help him in this way, you can only help him once. But if he still doesn't have a chance after he uses up the gold, won't he still leave?"
"No, the opportunity will definitely come soon," Bi Luan said with certainty: "Because I am trying to find a way to help King Linzi. People say that King Linzi values talents the most. If I can introduce him
Give it to King Linzi, then he will definitely be reactivated!"
"King Linzi!" Mingzhu exclaimed, "You know King Linzi!"
"I have seen him, and I believe I can find him soon!" Biluan's eyes were firm. It turned out that she was the woman who threw the handkerchief at Li Longji in Pingkang Lizhong that day!
"Okay, I'll help you." When she heard that Biluan knew Li Longji, Mingzhu was even more determined to help. "How much gold are you going to use to make such a thing?" After thinking about it, Mingzhu asked again, "Also, can you tell me?
My name?"
In fact, the latter question was purely out of Mingzhu's curiosity. She wanted to see what kind of great talent it was that could make a woman give up without thinking of anything in return.
"His name is Wang Wei..."
Mingzhu almost exclaimed again:
'Wang Wei! Oh my god, is it really Wang Wei? That great poet of the Tang Dynasty!'
What's the saying, "I know from afar that when my brothers climb to a high place, one of them will be missing from planting dogwood trees." What's saying, "I urge you to drink another glass of wine. There will be no old friends when you leave Yangguan in the west."
Mingzhu felt like she was about to faint.
