The second floor is very clean, and the decoration is more elegant, but there are still all kinds of “calligraphy” on the walls.

In the restaurant, the polished wooden floor is covered with thick carpets, and there are low tables and couches.

Fang Yiai found a place by the window and sat down. The shop Xiaoer quickly moved a few screens, and an “independent VIP box” came out.

“Court Academecian, pick up good wine and good food.” Fang Yiai greeted after sitting down.

This Court Academecian refers to the shopkeeper in the restaurant.

“Well, the two of you will make a little bit, the good wine and good food will be delivered soon.”

Soon, the wine and food are delivered, and Fang Yiai pouring Li Wangyou graciously. This wine tastes slightly better than what Li Wangyou has drunk at home, but for Li Wangyou, it is barely enough to drink that’s all.

After three rounds of wine, the two became acquainted with each other.

When Fang Yiai learned that Li Wangyou’s father was Li Zhou, he directly stood up and gave a solemn gift to Li Wangyou, which surprised Li Wangyou inexplicably.

Which one is this going to cause?

“Ziyou Brother, you are the son of Duke Li! Please take a gift for your brother, come, and give you a drink for your brother!”

Fang Yiai’s words made Li Wangyou more confused .

Fang Xuanling is the Small Official of Li Er’s confidant, but his father opposes Li Er’s accession to the throne. Political views on both sides should be different.

Why does Fang Yiai treat him this way?

Seeing Li Wangyous doubts, Fang Yiai raised his head and drank a glass of Chinese wine, and explained: “Duke Li Youen and my lord…”

It turns out that Fang Xuanling was Li Er’s confidant, was jealous by the former Crown Prince Li Jiancheng.

In the six years of Wude, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were reprimanded by the former Crown Prince Li Jiancheng, and Fang Xuanling happened to take office with Hu County.

Li Zhou supervised Hu County at the time. He was only loyal to Li Er’s old son Li Yuan, and did not favor the former Crown Prince Li Jiancheng. As a result, Fang Xuanling is much maintained, and Fang Xuanling is cited as a confidant.

After the change of Xuanwu Gate, Li Er ascended the throne.

Li Zhou was demoted and dismissed in court. Fang Xuanling once persuaded Li Zhou to serve Li Er, but was scolded by Li Zhou and cut off his robes.

Fang Xuanling still shed tears at home after Li Zhou was sick and returned to the West, regretting Li Zhou.

After listening to Fang Yiai’s explanation, Li Wangyou suddenly realized that his former dead Old Ghost father actually knew Fang Xuanling such Great Tang “cowren”.

The two sides have the relationship of their parents, which makes them even closer.

Drinking a glass of wine again, Fang Yiai curiously asked: “Ziyou Brother, why are you being renamed by your clan?”

“hmph, it’s not that group of leeches too Greedy!”

Li Wangyou did not hide him, without omission and in detail, telling his own experience again.

After listening to Li Wangyou’s words, Fang Yiai threw the wine glass in his hand on the floor angrily: “old fogey, dare to be like this! I am mad at me! Ziyou is in no hurry, today I will go home and report to the lord, I must give you justice!”

“Brother Yiai, no need. I don’t care about that clan. It’s better to leave the Blood Sect clan. Know who will regret it in the future?”

“Ziyou is ambitious, come and drink!” Fang Yiai didn’t say much, picking up the jug and filling it with Li Wangyou.

The two of them drank a full hour of wine, even if Tang Dynasty’s alcohol level is not high, it still makes Li Wangyou feel a little bit superior.

For Fang Yiai, the “historical celebrity” I met today, Li Wangyou thinks he is a pretty good and interesting person.

Fang Yiai has been inconsistent in future generations. In “The Twenty-first New Tang Book Biographies”, it is said that Fang Xuanling’s second son is beloved, with no birth rate and military force.

But today, Li Wangyou feels that Fang Yiai is not as unbearable as stated in the history books.

Fang Yiai is absurd without learning.

But Li Wangyou found that Fang Yiai’s talents are quite good, his personality is very refreshing, and he has an appetite for Li Wangyou.

Think about it, too, Fang Xuanling, as the Mingxiang of Great Tang, one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, how could he give birth to a son and neglect his teaching.

However, thinking of the famous Green Hat incident between Fang Yiai and Gaoyang Princess in the future, he felt that if he had a chance in the future, he must persuade Fang Yiai to stay away from Gaoyang. This princess was absolutely unacceptable.

At this time, the two people met for half a day. Naturally, it was not the time to talk about it, but Li Wangyou still remembered it in his heart.

Fang Yiai’s drink volume is not good. Li Wangyou just feels that he is already very drunk when he is a little bit up.

Greeting to Fang Yiai’s entourage, ask them to carefully send Fang Yiai back to the house. This banquet, plus the expenses of the Niu Family brothers, cost all the money. If Fang Yiai hadn’t paid for it, it would really make Li Wangyou painful for a long time.

After sending Fang Yiai away, Li Wangyou asked Qingdian Xiaoer where there is a paper store, and led the Niu Family brother to buy a stack of mulberry paper.

Not far from East Market, the Chongren Workshop in Chang’an City is to the northwest.

Chongren Workshop is a collection of large and small hotel Inns.

I found a hostel at random, and Li Wangyou opened two rooms to live in.

Let the Niu Family brothers go to rest, Li Wangyou closed the door, took out the mulberry paper he bought, and found charcoal from the package he carried with him.

I was busy in the room all afternoon, and it was not until the evening that Li Wangyou sneaked out of the room.

“Guest, but want to go out? This twilight drum is about to sound. After the drum stops, the memory archway gate will be closed. Don’t leave the memory archway gate.”

Seeing that Li Wangyou was about to go out, the junior of the hostel quickly reminded him.

In Chang’an City, drums will be played in the morning and evening. Drums in the morning and in the evening are the signals for work and rest in this city.

After three thousand beats of the morning drum, the memory archway gate opens; after the evening drum beats 800 times, the memory archway gate closes. After the Mu drum was beaten, anyone who was still on the street who did not enter the workshop would be arrested by Wuhou Xunjie on charges of night ban.

After the memorial archway gate is closed, in principle, it is not possible to move around at will, but the Pattern of the Failmily in the Chongren Workshop is a centralized place.

Most of the literati who come to Ch_ng’n for official selection and evaluation and take the imperial examination will live here, so even after the curfew, the restaurant attached to the Chongren Workshop is noisy day and night, full of lights , Like the nightlife center of Chang’an City.

Li Wangyou thanked Xiao Er with a smile, walked out of the hostel, and walked straight to the memorial archway gate.

The veteran guarding the memorial archway gate also reminded him that he was about to beat the twilight drum, and the memorial archway gate would be shut down later.

Li Wangyou just smiled, and after thanking the old man, he walked towards the memorial archway gate of Pingkangfang on the opposite side of the street.

Seeing him go to Pingkangfang, the old man guarding the memorial archway gate didn’t say much, just a look of envy.

Pingkang Fang, the most special one in Great Tang Chang’an City.

The reason why the old guard guarding the memorial archway gate is envious, because here is…cough cough…legendary “red light district”.

The second volume of “Kaiyuan Tianbao Legacy” has a saying: “Ch_ng’n has people from Pingkangfang, where prostitutes and women live, and there are few chivalrous people in Kyoto, and the collection is here… It is a romantic place.”

This Pingkangfang is not only a red light district, but also the location of the famous “Beijing Office”.

Like the later generations, the prefectures set up offices in Ch_ng’n, called Jinzuoyuan. Fifteen in Chang’an City, all of them are located in Pingkang Fang, which is convenient for foreign officials to drink pot of flower wine at night for entertainment.

Besides, Great Tang can’t help the officials, prostitutes, literati, and Imperial court officials, who are proud of having fun here.

Li Wangyou came to Pingkangfang, not because he was hungry and thirsty. He wanted to come and be happy.

He is here to make money…
