Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty
Chapter 135
"Famous city!" The guide Shen San pointed to the majestic city in the snowflakes.
Although it has entered the middle of the first lunar month, the snow in Hebei has not stopped, and the whole group is wearing coir raincoats. Reining in their horses on the road, the big men in coir raincoats looked ahead.
There is a vast expanse of white snow on the field, and deep in the snow, the majestic Daming City is looming. It is really a very imposing city. At first glance, it is much bigger than the city of Shouzhou. The scene here has no green mountains and green land, no stone bridges and flowing water, and it is rougher and wilder here.
Shen San, who was hired by the merchant gang, said again: "There is a post house outside Daming City, why don't we go to the post house first."
"Very good... drive!" Guo Shao gripped the horse's belly and rode the horse first to continue to run forward.
The posthouses in the big city are like the small towns attached to the main city, with inns, markets, and government offices that are well-equipped to receive businessmen. When I arrived at the post house, I realized that there were still a lot of pedestrians and merchants in the wind and snow, and the small town was bustling with people.
Guo Shao and his party were not on official business, and they didn't want to be greedy for cheap, so they paid their own money to stay in the inn. This is a transportation hub between Hebei and the south, and there are people with various accents from all over the world. It is not surprising that Guo Shao and his party say that Kaifeng Prefecture has an accent. As the capital of the Zhou Dynasty, Kaifeng Mansion had more people going to various places to do business.
After handing over the horses, Guo Shao said: "Everyone has had a hard journey, find a few tables, and I will treat you to a banquet."
Everyone became happy when they heard this, and Shen San said: "It's time to drink some wine to warm up, hey, I can't wait!" Another guide who was traveling with him laughed and scolded: "You three drunkards!"
Guo Shao's eyes swept over Yang Biao's face, and he knew that although his second brother didn't speak well, he was very sensible. His eyes stayed on Luo Mengzi, and he specifically told him: "Third brother, don't talk, don't make trouble."
Luo Mengzi touched his round head and said, "I know."
Yang Biao's horse face was fierce, and he snorted after hearing this: "The Daming Mansion is King Wei's territory, you don't know how to flatter and cause trouble on other people's territory; King Wei sees it, how will he evaluate our elder brother? Don't stand out, see what the brothers do, and follow!"
"Do I like to make trouble very much?" Luo Mengzi looked very dissatisfied.
Guo Shao remembered the battle that Luo Mengzi had caused in Longjinfang, Tokyo, and nodded with Yang Biao. Guo Shao thought in his heart: As long as his own people don't take the initiative to mess around, there should be nothing wrong, and the troublemakers will be full...would it be okay to mess with your twenty or so tall and fierce men?
After everyone was seated, the waiter came up with a towel on his shoulders: "Guests, what do you want to eat and drink?"
Guo Shao said cheerfully: "There are three tables here, just serve good wine and good food, as long as it is enough for us to eat."
"Okay! Honorable guest, please wait a moment and come."
After hearing this, Shen San laughed and said, "My master is rich!"
After a while, Xiao Er brought hot tea, dried fruit, and a few cold dishes first. A group of people drank hot tea, ate dried fruit and chatted first, waiting for the food to be served. The little one came up with a smile on his face and said: "Seeing that you are a generous guest, the little ones specially made good tea, is this tea delicious?"
Guo Shao didn't taste good or bad, so he laughed casually: "As long as women are young, they won't be too ugly; as long as the tea is hot, they won't be too bad."
Everyone burst into laughter. It attracted the attention of the surrounding customers.
Xiaoer laughed and said: "There is still a little difference. I can't tell whether the tea is good or bad; but young ladies, there is a huge difference. Everyone can tell whether it is good or bad at a glance, don't you think?"
A man in a long robe at the next table took it in one gulp, and said: "The waiter is right! Isn't the best lady in this Daming Mansion the second lady of the Wei Wang family? What's the comparison? Ten thousand young ladies can't compare to just one!"
Sure enough, the same is true in ancient and modern times. When a beautiful woman is mentioned, the atmosphere in the lobby immediately becomes lively, and everyone who knows or does not know can talk. The shop waiter took the opportunity to be lazy, and made a gesture to pour tea for Guo Shao in a hurry, but there was no movement after pouring for a long time, and he just made some useless trivial actions.
At this time, someone from another table asked: "Who is Fu Erniang's older sister, the current Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty? This area is within a hundred miles... no, within a thousand miles! Is there any woman who can compare to Fu Erniang? I heard that she is only one year younger than the empress, and she has been raised in the palace. Why? It is not easy for the King of Wei to choose a good husband and son-in-law. It is something that only princes and nobles can think about... We people can only look at it. Heh! We can't even see it!"
The shop waiter put the teapot that hadn't been poured out for a long time on the table, and said happily: "Everyone wants to see it? You can still see it."
"Oh?" Everyone immediately focused on the waiter.
The shop clerk looked smug, and purposely put it off. When everyone got impatient, he said, "Let me tell you a way. If you are not from the Daming Mansion, I usually don't say anything to passers-by..."
Unexpectedly, at this moment, he suddenly heard a scolding from the counter, and Xiaoer's face sank and he went to work. The man at the next table grabbed his clothes and said, "Finish your words!"
Xiaoer yelled: "Shopkeeper, the guest officials won't let me go!" Then he said anxiously: "In a few days, it will be the Lantern Festival, and every year there will be a lantern festival in a famous city. Last year, I heard that I saw Fu Erniang's car battle at the lantern market. If you want to see it, stay here for a few more days. When the Lantern Festival comes, maybe you will see it!"
After he finished speaking, he was let go, and the atmosphere in the lobby became more and more lively.
A man at the next table blushed, and said: "We have to spend the Lantern Festival here, if we delay for a few more days, we can see the famous second wife of Wang Wei's family, it is indeed a rare thing!"
Someone at the same table immediately echoed: "King Wei gave birth to a good daughter, and it is not in vain to come to see this in Daming City..."
Guo Shao and the others didn't say anything, just ate some dried fruit and tea. Luo Mengzi seemed to like fried almonds very much, he stuffed handfuls into his mouth, swallowed a mouthful, and finally couldn't help but leaned over and muttered: "I didn't expect my sister-in-law to be so famous."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the round eyes on Yang Biao's horse face staring at him, Luo Mengzi hurriedly stopped talking.
Hearing people's discussions, Guo Shao felt more and more that this matter might not be easy. What era is this? Lao Fu actually raised his daughter until she was twenty-three years old and never married.
It's really not easy for Guo Shao to think about Fu Ermei. Last year, he was thinking about it in his heart. First, he went to attack the Kingdom of Shu to make meritorious service, and then worked hard in Huainan. Finally, he was promoted to a high-ranking general... The qualifications should still be enough, but I don't know what Fu Yanqing thinks.
After everyone had eaten at the tables, Guo Shao asked someone to ask for a few suites, and everyone went upstairs to rest and wait for Zuo You's news.
The group was still thinking about what they had seen and heard in the lobby just now. As soon as Luo Mengzi entered the room, he said, "Brother, I heard from those people that I dare to be so affectionate... Mrs. Fu Er is the most beautiful woman in the world!"
Guo Shaodao: "The main reason is because of her status."
"What Big Brother said makes sense." Luo Mengzi nodded.
Yang Biao sneered at this time: "The third sister-in-law is quite well-known in the Tokyo market, soup cake Xishi!"
"Haha..." Everyone couldn't help laughing.
Luo Mengzi rubbed his head and said: "The soup cakes are no longer sold, so what are the money. Now your sister-in-law is enjoying the blessings at home, and you can eat while sitting or lying down...The soup cake Xi Shi never thought that she would have this day with me, Lao Luo, hehe."
The soldiers hurriedly echoed, "General Luo is right."
Guo Shao said with a serious face: "That's what the third brother fought for. I have always been fair and just."
At this moment, he heard a commotion outside, Guo Shao asked someone to open the door, and saw Zuo You coming. Zuo You patted the snowflakes on his arm, and said, "King Wei sent someone here, let's go to Prince Wei's mansion right away."
Guo Shao stepped forward to pat the snow on Zuo You's back with his own hands, and then he heard a voice from the stairs: "Marshal Guo, don't come here without any problems."
I saw that the person who came was the teacher who delivered the letter to Huainan, and there were two civil servants behind him, who came forward to pay respects. Guo Shao went up to meet, exchanged some pleasantries, and said: "Everyone, wait in the room, I will prepare."
Guo Shao walked into the guest room quickly, had a meal upstairs, chatted nonsense with a group of brothers, and even forgot to take a shower and change clothes.
The clothes on his body are sweaty and dirty, how can he go on a "blind date" like this... Guo Shaoqing knows that the first impression of this thing is still very important; people who don't know each other can only look at your appearance.
The queen's own sister is also about the same age; and it was arranged by the queen herself. This thing can't go wrong!
It's too late to take a shower, but it's easier to change into clean clothes from head to toe. He immediately dug out his best set of regular clothes from the bundle...a black gauze head, a purple silk round-neck robe, a white satin jacket, and deerskin-topped boots.
This is not an official uniform, but it can only be worn by people with status. In Guo Shao's view, regular clothes are equivalent to casual clothes, which are stylish and tasteful; they are custom-made in a high-end tailor shop in Tokyo, and they are impeccable from cutting to stitching.
He changed his middle coat first, thinking that wearing too thick would easily make him look bloated, so he gritted his teeth not afraid of the cold, and directly put on a robe over his middle coat. After changing his clothes, he tapped in front of the bronze mirror again, and reached out to wipe his hair on his temples, feeling very satisfied.
When Guo Shao came out of the bedroom, all the brothers laughed, and Luo Mengzi laughed and said, "Brother is going to be the bridegroom officer, tsk tsk!"
"Get your dirty hands away!" Guo Shao scolded, "Go and clean up the things in the house, leave."
The group quickly packed up and walked out of the room. Being blown by the cold wind, Guo Shao felt a little shivering all over his body. Daming Prefecture and Tokyo are separated by the Yellow River, so it is too cold.
He didn't intend to ride the horse anymore, and got into the carriage straight after shouting and hugging. Put down the curtains to cover it well, without the wind blowing, I feel that I can still bear it.
