Chapter 14: The Four Beauties in the Capital

"Fate is called sex, willfulness is called Tao, and cultivation is..."

The afternoon class was about Su Mingjue's least favorite poetry explanation, and the lecturer was the most old-fashioned person in the entire academy. Mrs. Wang is rigid and abides by etiquette, so her lectures are boring and lengthy.

At this moment, he was shaking his head and leading a class of students to read "The Doctrine of the Mean". His lecture was boring and his head was dragging. Su Mingjue was hypnotized by him whether she was listening or watching. Her eyes were squinted and her head was straight. Fall down.

Next to him, Song Chunhe was about the same, but he was probably not asleep. He was just yawning profusely. Turning around, he saw Su Mingjue looking like she had fallen asleep. He reached out and poked Su Mingjue, and whispered:

"Don't sleep . If someone from Xingsi Pavilion sees it, you won't get beaten up."

Su Mingjue was about to fall asleep, but was disturbed by Song Chunhe. Now his mind was much clearer, and he supported his head with his hands: "What time is it?"

Song Chunhe glanced at the sundial outside the window and responded, "It's almost Unity Time."

Su Mingjue tried her best to open her eyes wide and said, "It's so soon, then school will be over later."

Song Chunhe looked at the stage . Mr. Wang glanced at him, and then lowered his voice and said to Su Mingjue: "Xiao Jamming said that he would go to Yipinju after school. I heard that there was a new cook from the south who cooked delicious Jiangnan dishes, which will just relieve your homesickness."

Su Mingjue said to him. I didn't miss the food in Jinling City that much, but it was hard for Song Chun and Song Chun to think of him during the meal. Since there was nowhere to go after school, he simply went with Song Chun to play with them.

Su Mingjue nodded, "Do you want to change clothes?"

The students of Luming Academy all wore white Confucian shirts. Sometimes it was easy to be identified when they went out to play. To avoid unnecessary trouble, Su Mingjue and Song Chunhe went out to play. They all changed their clothes to avoid being seen and sued Xingsi Pavilion, saying that their students were obsessed with enjoying themselves and not making progress.

Song Chunhe pondered for a moment and said, "No, it's just a meal, and we don't have anything to do."

After the poetry class was over, as soon as Master Zhang left, Su Mingjue, Song Chunhe, and Xiao Jingming took their books. The bag walked towards the entrance of Luming Academy.

As soon as Su Mingjue got on the carriage, she said to Su Xiaoliu: "Follow the carriage in front and go to Yipinju."

His young master often played with Master Song, the son of the Minister of Rites, and Master Xiao, the legitimate son of the Minister of Household Affairs.

When Su Xiaoliu heard him ordering him to follow the carriage in front of him, Su Xiaoliu didn't ask any questions. He opened the curtain and said something to Mu Li who was driving outside, and the carriage moved forward slowly.

Mu Li drove the carriage behind the car in front, and soon stopped at the back door of Yipinju.

The front of the ancient restaurant was narrow and it was not easy to park and rest. People usually entered through the back door. There were horse piles similar to modern parking lots. After Su Mingjue and his party got off the carriage, the driver parked the carriage at the horse piles. .

Xiao Jamming usually treats his servants very well. Now the three of them were led by the shopkeeper to the private room upstairs. He threw a few taels of silver to his servant: "You don't have to follow me, you guys." Let's have a dinner together with the groom!"

Xiao Hui next to him heard this and smiled happily: "Thank you young master, the younger ones are downstairs. If the young master has any instructions, just send someone downstairs to call. We'll be fine."

Su Xiaoliu glanced at Su Mingjue when he heard this, and when Su Mingjue nodded, he happily followed Xiaohui downstairs.

This is the advantage of being a personal servant. If the masters want to have fun together, but don't want them to be together, they will be rewarded with some money and let them pass the time downstairs.

Yipinju is one of the largest restaurants in the capital. It is not easily accessible to ordinary people. Those who come to eat here are either the rich and powerful or those with money in their pockets.

Knowing that Su Mingjue liked beautiful scenery, Xiao Jamming specially asked for a private room facing the window and looking out at the spring scenery.

As soon as he went upstairs, Song Chunhe sat on a round chair and shouted to order food: "Quick, quick, quick, order some dishes quickly, I have been in class for a day, but I am starving to death."

Su Mingjue saw that the meal was from Xiao Jamming Zhang Luo immediately said generously: "I'm the host today, you can order whatever you want."

When Xiao Jamming heard this, he raised his eyebrows, "Obviously I asked you to do it, but I want you to cook it. Dong, do you think I don’t have the money to do it?”

Su Mingjue said with a narrow look on his face: “No, no, no! I don’t think so. Who doesn’t know that your father is in charge of all the money in the Daxing Dynasty? I can’t compare, I just want to Since today’s meal is Jiangnan cuisine, I want to cook something to satisfy your wishes.”

Xiao Jamming smiled and shook his head, “You are really good at talking, so I won’t be polite. "

Xiao Jingming looked at the waiter who was waiting to order, and pointed to the newly baked dishes: "The fresh pickled fish, sweet and sour mandarin fish, crab roe tofu, and these Beijing dishes will also be served."

After ordering . It was a long time to wait for food. Su Mingjue was bored and leaned against the window lattice, sipping tea and looking at the scenery outside the window, taking in half of the city's spring scenery.

The boss of this hotel is a good businessman. He knows that some guests can't wait, so he has arranged for people to play and play in the lobby downstairs in advance. Those who like the excitement can directly hear the sound of silk and bamboo while sitting in the lobby. , and those who want to be quieter can hear the faint sound of clear bombs from a certain distance upstairs.

Su Mingjue looked at the spring scenery outside the window, sipping tea in her mouth, and felt very comfortable hearing the elegant and gentle sound of silk and bamboo downstairs.

But the voice didn't last long before it stopped and turned into a storyteller.

Su Mingjue's good mood was swept away, and Su Mingjue frowned slightly. The boss was not afraid that some people didn't like such noisy things, but when he saw Song Chunhe sitting by and listening seriously from the corner of his eye, he was relieved immediately.

I have to say that the boss is very good at business management. Some people like to listen to Yajing's silk and bamboo, and naturally some people don't like it. They prefer anecdotes. He grasps both elegance and popular taste, and is not afraid of guests not buying it.

"Continuing from last time, I told you about the jade-faced Young Master Rong Zheng, one of the four great princes in the capital. Today I am here to tell you about the second charming and unenviable Meng Helan."

Su Mingjue listened to this. , he was slightly confused, F4 was also popular in ancient times, and according to the local language, it should be called Beijing F4, but he was a little curious about who these four were.

He turned sideways and looked at Song Chunhe next to him, and asked: "Who are these four great masters in the capital?"

When Song Chunhe heard the sound of Sizhu at first, he was not interested at all. Now he heard someone talking about interesting things, and his ears immediately It got sharp.

When he heard Su Mingjue asking, he said with a surprised look on his face: "You don't even know about the four eldest young masters in the capital."

Seeing the confusion on Su Mingjue's face, he then reacted belatedly, "That's right, you have just arrived in the capital. It’s not strange if I don’t know.”

He introduced them in detail: “There are four beautiful men in the capital. People call them the four young masters. These four young masters are the Jade-faced Young Master Rong Zheng, the Yunshang Young Master Lu Shaoyu, and the Young Master Lu Shaoyu. The spring beauty of the world is Bai Ziyu and the romantic Meng Helan. "

This title is Fengya, which makes people feel infinitely daydreaming. Except for Rong Zheng, he has never seen any of the other three among them.

But judging from Rong Zheng's appearance, the other three should be about the same. He asked curiously: "Are they all good-looking?"
