Chapter 65
Zhu Houzhao sat for a while and felt a little bored. The sun was getting higher and higher, and he felt a little hungry in his belly. He was about to ask someone to find Yang Ling back, but a team of soldiers from the Five City Army rushed over. He was holding a sword or gun, but a broom and dustpan. Several officials shouted with their eyes: "Idle people are waiting to avoid it quickly. Now the emperor is coming to the examination room for inspection."
When Zhu Houzhao heard that he was coming, she was shocked and stood up in a hurry. The quick-witted men flew across the street, sweeping the dust without them rushing. The people waiting outside the examination room had already been busy avoiding the woods across the street.
The vendor selling tea said he was unlucky and quickly called his wife to pick up the tea sets, tables and chairs to move the place quickly. At this moment, Yang Ling turned out from the side of the cloth curtain with a dark face. Zhu Houzhao was overjoyed and said quickly: "I'm back, Ma Yongcheng, you often go out of the palace to buy it. Let's go for a good meal."
Gu Dayong was shocked when he heard his door tone, and quickly lowered his voice and said, "The prince is cautious, don't let anyone hear it." Liu Jin, Zhang Yong and others used to looking at the faces of others, and they saw that Yang Ling was very confused. They just let them break their heads, and they didn't know what happened to him.
Yang Ling didn't expect that his kindness had helped a famous treacherous minister in history. At this time, he heard that Zhu Houzhao was going to have a drink, so he scratched his head. He hurriedly came to Zhu Houzhao and whispered: "Crown Prince, we have been out of the palace for a long time. I am afraid that Your Majesty will notice it. According to the opinions of the minister, let's go to have some food and tea, and then hurry to the Ministry of War."
Zhu Houzhao also laughed in a low voice and said, "Don't worry, the father will come to inspect the examination room in a while, and will not be able to return to the palace in a while. Let's find a place to eat some wine and tea, and when I fill my stomach, I will hire a car to move things to the Ministry of War." When he thought, Liu Daxia would give him face, and he would be able to get something right?
After hearing Zhu Houzhao's instructions, Ma Yongcheng hurriedly led a large group of people to the street again. Ten people rented two carriages and walked along the street. Zhu Houzhao knew that his father was coming to the school, but he was really afraid that he would find it, so he told Ma Yongcheng to go as far as possible. The carriage walked through the streets and alleys. After a long time, Zhu Houzhao saw from the carriage that a bustling alley on the side of the road was very prosperous. There was a restaurant at the intersection of the street, with flags waving and very lively, so he knocked on the carriage bar and asked Ma Yongcheng to stop.
When Ma Yongcheng saw that this alley was Baishun Hutong, a famous Fengyue place in the capital, he couldn't help but complain in his heart. Emperor Hongzhi had only this son and was extremely fond of Zhu Houzhao. In addition, the emperor often secretly left the palace, so even if he knew that the prince had left the palace privately, he would only beat them up for a few tricks. Therefore, this group of eunuchs dared to instigate the prince to leave the palace. But if the emperor knew that they brought the little prince to Fengyue occasion, the blame would be great.
But he didn't dare to say anything to Zhu Houzhao. The little prince was too curious. The more you didn't let him go, the more interested he was. Fortunately, he only liked the hotel at the intersection of the street. Go in and eat something and leave as soon as possible.
Ma Yongcheng stopped the car and paid the car. He took the opportunity to say a few words to Liu Jin, Zhang Yong and others. Several old eunuchs nodded repeatedly and quickly chased him to the guard Zhu Houzhao and rushed to the restaurant, fearing that the wild horse would go on a whim and wander around in the alley again.
A few people went upstairs, and Ma Yongcheng ordered a full table with the best dishes, and ten people started eating and drinking in the private room next to the window. Zhu Houzhao was not old, but she had a few drinks, but he was young and had a low alcohol tolerance. After drinking a few cups, his face turned red, so he asked Wei Bin to open the window to breathe.
In March, the sun is bright and the air is very fresh. When the spring breeze blows, Zhu Houzhao feels excited. He gets up excitedly and pours wine for Yang Ling and others, forcing them to drink a few glasses too.
Zhu Houzhao was drinking happily, and heard a faint sound of silk and bamboo coming from outside the window. Zhu Houzhao liked music, so she couldn't help but stand in the cup and listened intently.
He had no interest in the traditional official music in the palace, and preferred folk slang and exotic music. At this time, he listened to the music from afar, which was beautiful. Although he used silk and bamboo instruments, his style was very different from the music style in the palace. He couldn't help but stand up and look out from the railing, and excitedly pointed at the Siheyuan Road of the rows of two-story buildings below: "Dacheng, what is that?"
Ma Yongcheng and Liu Jin looked at each other and said ummyly: "Uh, I don't know, I think it's the musicians invited by the merchants who are singing the song."
Zhu Houzhao high-high and said, "How can I drink but not have fun? Go and call someone, I also want to listen to the little song." Ma Yongcheng ate Ai Ai with a bitter face and refused to move. At this moment, the boss saw the guests at the table and personally brought a big carp into the private room to add food. Zhu Houzhao looked back and called him, "Shopkeeper, I heard the sound of silk and bamboo there, which was very interesting. Go and call me one, I want to listen to the song."
The shopkeeper saw him sitting in the main seat and knew that the young man was young, but the leader of the scholars. He looked out the window and smiled and said, "Celebrity, the musicians there are not going out. If the guest wants to listen to the music, he has to come to the door to listen."
After hearing this, Zhengde was curious and asked, "Oh? Is it a musical genius? Why is it so arrogant? It's not that I don't pay him some money, so why are I so arrogant?"
Seeing that he was young, he didn't know much, but the scholars next to him all showed strange looks, and maybe they were regular guests in Fengliu's field. He smiled and said, "The guests don't know that the girls in this alley are all people with status. They usually only receive some noble officials and noble men and rich young men, and they will not show up easily.
The one that came from Sizhu Yale was called Shihuaguan, which was the leader of our Baishun Hutong. There are the most beautiful girls in the museum. The madam there is a scale of gold conditioning, all of whom are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Most of the people who are usually famous for their status are famous celebrities and nobles. My restaurant is still small, so I can’t invite other girls.”
Zhu Houzhao, who had always been absurd to later generations, was still an unintentional boy at this time. She had no interest in women and just wanted to ask someone to sing a song. When she heard that the musicians there were not going out, she was immediately excited.
The shop owner said again: "If the young master wants to go to see the world, it is a great place to go to the flower garden. The popular girl Xiangbaoer and Keqinger are so beautiful. The young master has such a handsome character, they must be very happy. There are three more beautiful girls in the restaurant, who have not been combed yet, and they are all innocent servants.
Although these three are young, they are all beautiful women. One is called Xuelimei, who plays a good flute; the other is called Tang Yixian, who plays a good piano; and the other is Yujie, who has good singing and dancing. These three are very talented and looks, and they are similar to the young master's age."
When Yang Ling heard the names of Xuelimei and Tang Yixian, he seemed to have heard of them. He remembered that he had been reincarnated in nine lifetimes and possessed a red singer in his last life. He once played a guest role in a TV series about the Ming Dynasty. He seemed to have heard of these names there.
Yang Ling thought to himself: "If these musicians can leave their names in later generations, they must be famous prostitutes in the world. Could it be that Zhengde has become famous because he has been prostitutes? However, Zhengde shouldn't have left the palace this time in history. While this kid is not open to women, I have to distract himself from the conversation and don't let him enter this path."
Yang Ling didn't bother to think about these familiar names anymore, and hurriedly said to the store owner: "Go and go, don't talk, what kind of world have we seen before? We are so noble, how can we see a genius? Go down quickly."
He wanted to praise Zhu Houzhao, and made him respect his identity, which gave up the idea of listening to the music, but Zhu Houzhao smiled and said, "It's okay, maybe, the three of you who said are good at playing, the other good at playing the piano, and the other good at singing and dancing. Then these three are perfect matches, but if the song I listened to this audition was written by them, the music theory would be just average."
Liu Jin and others were so worried that Zhu Houzhao would be on the whim that he really came to listen to the music. When they heard what he said, he felt relieved and said, "That's right, that's right, what kind of scene hasn't been seen by the young master? Let's ignore it, let's drink."
Seeing that Zhu Houzhao was very easy-going, the store owner said with a fun voice: "These girls are not necessarily playing music at this time. If the guests don't go to see their talents, one of them will be missing when they want to see them in the future."
Zhu Houzhao said, "How come one missing?"
The shop owner said: "I heard that a merchant named Yan fell in love with Sister Yu and spent a lot of money to hire her as a concubine. Sister Yu was crying all day long and was very unhappy."
Yang Ling felt very surprised when she heard this, and couldn't help but ask, "What? How can this happen? It's better to marry a concubine than to be a raw girl and a mature girl to sell laughter. What's wrong with her?"
The shop owner said: "The customer thought he didn't walk around the funeral scene often, and he didn't know the atmosphere of the funeral. If someone redeems her for the fire pit, he would naturally be unlucky. However, Yu Jie'er is still young and is already a famous priest here. In the future, she will definitely be very popular. All famous prostitutes are proud to marry officials and scholars. If anyone is hired by merchants, it will be a cowardly ending. How can she be willing to do so?"
Zhu Houzhao found it interesting when he heard this. He slapped the table excitedly and said, "Let's go and see what's strange about these three musicians."

I recommend a good book I just discovered, "Jingnan World". The author does not recognize it. Seeing its solemn style and steady writing style, I am quite suspicious of it. The portal is below.
