"Today, Young Lady Yun Yun will be drawing a portrait of a beautiful lady."”
"Good!"
Many scholars and merchants applauded.
Among them, there were few merchants, but more scholars and scholars.
The Great Tang was particular about family status.
In the families of scholar-bureaucrats, marriage was especially particular about matching families.
Thus, the freedom of love that had existed since ancient times had become restricted in the Great Tang.
In the Tang Dynasty, matchmaking was more popular.
This led to many scholar-bureaucrats and scholars marrying through political connections.
For example, Fang Xuanling's wife had a political marriage.
How miserable was Fang Xuanling?
Therefore, most scholar-bureaucrats and scholars in the Great Tang were unhappy in marriage.
This also led to the rapid prosperity of the brothel industry.
In Chang 'an, eight out of ten restaurants were brothels.
Drinking was either to get drunk at the place of the honest officials or to drink wine directly.
Many of these people admired these upright officials.
As a courtesan who could be the main character for a day, Yun Yun naturally had many fans.
Yun Yun began to draw.
Fang Yang was not interested in the painting.
The art of painting in ancient China only reached its peak when landscape painting appeared.
Paintings of beautiful women had great research value, but low artistic value.
The creator of landscape painting, Wang Wei, had yet to be born.
On the other hand, Li Er and Fang Yang boasted to each other to their heart's content.
"Li Er, I'm not bragging, burp…you're lucky to have bought my poems for two hundred strings.”
"Burp…when I'm in Beijing, I'll have to raise the price.”
Li Eryi waved his hand as he drank." 200 strings of coins and you're still raising the price? Do you think everyone has a gold mine in their wallets? I'm already considered one of the richest people in the Tang Empire. Burp…I'll feel pain even if I buy your calligraphy."”
"You're just inexperienced. How dare you call yourself a first-class rich man?" Fang Yang said disdainfully.”
The two of them exchanged toasts and drank happily.
"This wine isn't very good either. Wait for me to get some good wine in a few days and think of a way to promote it. I can sell it for a lot of money. In an instant, I'll be richer than you, Li Er.”
Li Er: " You're bragging. This Du Kang wine is the best wine in the Great Tang. If you can…"
"Burp…If I can brew better wine, I'll pay 1,000 strings.”
"Who are you looking down on?"”
Li Er: " Two thousand, forget it, forget it. Five thousand strings, burp…"
Pei Xingjian was a little surprised.
The Emperor, what kind of dignified person was he? Today, he actually got drunk with an ordinary painting shop owner?
Even if he told everyone that this was the emperor, no one would believe him.
"Five thousand strings for my treasure?" I've been saving this for a long time to get rich.”
Li Er scolded him with a smile." You're so stupid. You can be an official too, but you're still planning to do business?"”
Fang Yang smiled, his face flushed red." I'm going to be an official, but it's not the time yet. When I'm ready, I'll ask for the position of prime minister."”
Li Er: " Hehehe, you can't be the prime minister.”
"Am I not smart enough?" I must be the prime minister."
"You can't be it."
"It's a success."
"I want to be the prime minister."
"I said you can't."
"You said I can't, so I can't? Li Er, Li Er, this is the job of the Minister of Personnel Affairs. What do you say counts?”
Li Er laughed out loud." How can the Minister of Personnel have the right to decide the position of Prime Minister? You're drunk!"”
"I'm not drunk, I'm not drunk, I can still drink."”
"I…"
Pei Xingjian still remembered Li Er's instructions. He stepped forward and grabbed Li Er's hand that was holding the cup. He shouted,"Old Master Li, don't get drunk!"
Li Er instantly sobered up a lot.
Li Er immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
Why did they talk about these things? What if they let it slip…
If he knows that I'm the emperor, it'll definitely affect my image. No, no, I have to drink less.
It had been two hours since Miss Yun Yun came out to paint.
Miss Yun Yun stopped writing and the maid stepped forward: "Everyone, the young miss said that the scholar who wrote the best poem today will be given this painting of a beautiful lady!”
Everyone who was still drinking became excited.
"Listen to my poem, burp…"
The maid smiled." Everyone, please write it down. If you recite a poem, everyone will be tongue-tied. You won't be able to tell whether it's good or bad.”
Lord Turtle began to distribute brush, ink, paper, and inkstone everywhere.
Some of them were writing furiously, while others were thinking hard.
Li Er and Fang Yang's tables were also filled with brush, ink, paper, and inkstone.
Fang Yang saw the wine bottle being moved away and a brush, ink, and paper being placed on it. He was confused."What are you doing?"
Li Er laughed,"This is a poetry meeting held by the Red Harmony Courtyard, so everyone can write poems."”
"Little Fang, why don't you write one?"
Fang Yang was still very quick-witted in his daze.
"You want to trick me into writing a poem and then secretly take it away? No way…Burp!"
Fang Yang dipped his pen in ink and turned his head."If we write the poem on the wall, you won't be able to take it away. Haha! I'm so smart."
Fang Yang stood up, walked to the wall, and started writing.
At this moment, Fang Yang didn't even know how to write.
Yan Zhenqing's cursive script immediately fell to the ground.
I send my heart to the sun
--Drinking three pots of wine in Yihong Courtyard
I'm drunk in the Jianghu, My waist is slender and my hands are light.
Ten years, once woke up in Chang 'an dream, won the reputation of brothel fickle.
