(Update coming soon!)
Of course, this is not a topic that ordinary people are interested in after dinner. What is really attractive is the story behind it. WWw, QuAnBen-XIaoShuo, CoM It is said that this "Luoxian" wine was made by a mysterious young wealthy businessman for the famous Luoxian girl. Now everyone knows that Luo Xian, who married into the Han family, was expelled from the house on the charge of having no prostitute. Such a hot topic, coupled with the wine incident that caused everyone to scratch their heads, immediately gave the storyteller a lot of attention. The inspiration also allowed them to make a small profit.
The Phoenix Terrace refers to the high square platform where Luoxiang ascended the stage: it is more than one foot high and the top is just a wooden board four inches long and three inches wide. After Luoxian came out of the palace, there were other brothels that wanted to build the "Phoenix Stage", but they didn't have the ability to dance on it. From then on, the "Phoenix Stage" became a regret for all the wealthy and talented people.
But "Phoenix Tower" will challenge this myth again. On May 18th, the auspicious day of the zodiac, "Phoenix Tower" strongly recommends a little-known Kou Baimen girl to once again jump out of "One Step to Allure"!
Immediately, the speculation about this Kou Baimen has become a topic of discussion for everyone. Some people say that he is a newcomer secretly trained by Luo Mama. Some people say that it is just Luo Mama's gimmick. Some people say that it is Luo Xian's pseudonym. Some casinos even open gambling games.
On May 18th, there were endless firecrackers outside the "Phoenix Tower". The huge dazzling red brocade completely covered the "Phoenix Terrace". The "Phoenix Tower" is decorated with brocades of various colors to look like colorful balls, which is really like a cluster of flowers.
At this time, the front of the building was already crowded with people, bustling and noisy. The building has been occupied by all the dignitaries, gentry and rich people, and the girls inside are also going back and forth.
"When does it start?"
"It's not a lie, is it?"
"Hurry up!"
. . . . . .
In the "Phoenix Tower", Yun Mengtian was shuttling back and forth among the officials and gentry. Next to him was his father Yun Jichang. At this time, he fully showed off his excellent bloodline, his all-round intelligence and his popular old fox father, and quickly got along with everyone. Xiao Yueye was really amused by those words praising the heroic young man who had a tiger father but no son.
Originally, Liu Fucai was planning to sit quietly with Xiao Yueye, but unfortunately his status did not need to be inferior to anyone else's. "Qianlaipiao Account" is spread all over the world. There are a total of forty-one shopkeepers, who is not a popular figure in major social circles. Especially this young man who has achieved success in his youth and has not yet married a wife. This has made many high-ranking people think.
Turning around, Xiao Yueye was the most leisurely person. Although everyone knows his existence, he has always been low-key (debatable) and does not like to be polite to others, so he can sit quietly in the box on the second floor and look at the sea of people outside.
The mistress sat aside and said: "Master, why don't you go out and deal with those officials? I heard from Yun Mengtian that this time there were at least twenty officials from Ling Province, large and small, including the prefect of Huiyi Daotai. What else is there? Yun Jiedushi are the officials who live in the entire Ling Province."
Xiao Yueye waved her hand carelessly, grabbed the watermelon on the table and ate it wildly before saying: "It's boring to talk to them. These officials all speak in the same tone, and nine out of ten sentences are nonsense. But these nine sentences are nonsense. It’s killing me every step of the way. So if I don’t destroy this brain, I don’t know how many brain cells it will kill!”
"What are brain cells?" Xiao Si asked doubtfully.
"Uh, brain cells are, oh, it's a name in our medical profession, which refers to the vitality in the brain." Xiao Yueye made a random excuse and fooled Xiaosi over.
Luomei looked at the time and it was almost time. She was dressed very beautifully today. She brought out all her belongings, including a purple jade hairpin, five treasures, agate bracelet, and a seven-color cloud and peach blossom gauze skirt. She dressed herself up even more noblely than those noble ladies.
With a professional smile on her face and everyone's expectant eyes on her, she walked out slowly and made a quiet gesture.
The voices in the audience slowly dropped, and finally only the sound of breathing could be heard. Mother Luo nodded with satisfaction and shouted to everyone: "Today I am rebuilding the 'Phoenix Tower' high platform and thank you all for your support. I won't say any more nonsense, beat the drums and fire the cannons!"
The cheers rang out, and when everyone paused, the majestic drumming sounded just right to cheer up everyone's emotions. The turtle slave at the door also lit the firecrackers with incense and hurriedly covered his ears and left.
The roar of firecrackers and the loud sound of gongs and drums all pushed the emotions of everyone present to a high point. Even the officials and businessmen sitting in the various boxes inside opened the windows and looked out expectantly.
The sound of the drums gradually stopped and the sound of the cannon disappeared. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, my mother walked to the side of the high platform and pulled open the fiery red brocade.
"Phoenix Stage", which had been away for several years, reappeared in front of everyone. The entire high platform was painted with a layer of dazzling gold paint, which immediately dazzled everyone's eyes under the sunlight.
"Nephew Yun Xian is so generous. This high platform alone will probably cost hundreds of taels, right?!" Yu Boguang from Huiyi Daotai exclaimed and turned to look at Yun Mengtian. The latter smiled slightly respectfully and agreed. This made many people gasp slightly: they have plenty of money, but it is such a waste to spend hundreds of taels on a bamboo platform that can be dismantled after dancing.
Yun Mengtian took their reactions into his eyes lightly. He smiled and said: "Actually, this is not the most expensive one. This entire wooden platform is made of redwood from the south. Just these redwoods cost more than a thousand taels." ”
This immediately grabbed the hearts of the audience next to him. Why is the platform made of that damn expensive mahogany? Isn't this a waste of money? Especially for those officials, their maximum annual salary is only one hundred taels. This shabby job is worth ten years of their own salary!
Yun Mengtian successfully made the word "fat sheep" in the hearts of these old-timers in the officialdom. He winked at the old father beside him and the latter showed a treacherous smile. As long as these people who hold the power are moved, everything will be easy to do later.
Sure enough, money can help the gods!
Seeing the bright red satin being lifted but the legendary Kou Baimen not yet appearing, everyone present immediately started to commotion and booed.
"What are you doing? Where are the people?"
"Please take a look at this stage. Where did the people die?"
"Are you, Phoenix Tower, a liar?"
. . . . .
Seeing this scene, my mother was not anxious or annoyed. She waved her hand and waited for the silence to calm down before laughing and said: "How can our girl Kou have the courage to come out if there are no cheers and applause for her first time on stage?"
The crowd was silent for a while and then began to applaud. The chaotic and noisy cheers soon became unanimous under the guidance of some thoughtful people: "Kou Baimen, Kou Baimen!"
So where is Luoxian Oh No Kou Baimen at this time
Xiao Yueye said softly to the woman in the room: "How is it?"
Luoxian gave him a sweet smile, which made Xiaosi next to him unconsciously set up his tent.
"Don't worry, I will definitely make everyone remember the three words Kou Baimen." The faint voice was full of confidence and spoke loudly.
"Okay!" Xiao Yueye clapped happily and said to the mistress: "Mistress, let's start."
The mistress nodded: "It's the young master. Please come, Miss Luo."
Under the spotlight and with everyone cheering, a woman gracefully fell from a box on the second floor of the "Phoenix Tower". She was covered in gold and caught the eye. Amidst the exclamations, she seemed like a proud phoenix choosing a tree to perch on, and gracefully flew down to the high platform and smiled.
This flying figure immediately made everyone's hearts move, especially when they saw the Qiushui Weirong's peerless face, all the men present opened their eyes and swallowed hard.
Of course, many people also doubt that this is the Luoxian
The spring onion jade finger is like an orchid, and the three-inch golden lotus is like an ingot. The cloud sleeves are swaying lightly, dancing butterflies are dancing, the slender waist is slowly twisting the floating silk ribbon.
Luoxian was just like what was described in the poem. She slowly circled and smiled charmingly at everyone present.
Blinking his eyes, Luoxian stretched out his index finger as smooth as green onion and said softly in front of his lips: "Shh."
Although they didn't hear it, everyone understood what Luoxian meant. The scene became quiet again.
Luoxianzhu's round and jade-like voice sounded: "Everyone, today is Baimen's first time on stage. Thank you for your support. The dance I am going to dance today is called Phoenix Nirvana. I hope everyone will keep quiet during my dance so that Baimen can hear the sound of the strings clearly. Thanks!"
The lack of cheers does not mean that there is no support, but it just means that everyone heard what Luoxian said clearly and unconsciously followed her instructions.
Elegant string music sounded. Luoxian closed his eyes amidst everyone's differences and moved his arms slightly, slightly.
Her dance was so elegant and so passionate. With only a few inches of space left for her feet, she danced so smoothly, so beautifully, and so proudly.
That's right, arrogance. Having experienced ups and downs, turbulence, and the test of life and death, Luoxian has lost her once flashy youth and is dancing with her current feelings and heart. She is proud because she is a phoenix reborn from the ashes. Disdain the turmoil of the world but seek an inch of peaceful holy land in your heart.
No one spoke or blinked because everyone was afraid of interrupting the moment.
Such a violent dance made all Luoxian's clothes float. Today, she wears her hair in a flying bun, with two flying phoenix hairpins carved from gold leaves fluttering in the wind; she is wearing the golden phoenix, which shines brightly under the sunlight, making people trance-like.
The sound of the silk string gradually became lower, and Luo Xian's figure became slower and slower. Finally, he curled up into a ball and squatted on the high platform with his knees in his arms, burying his whole head in his arms.
Just when everyone thought it was over, there was suddenly a loud sound and the sound of silk strings changed from the original graceful to bold. And Luo Xian suddenly raised his head and waved his hand to pull off the golden phoenix skirt.
The golden light did not disappear but instead rose higher and higher. After everyone's eyes had adjusted, they saw that Luoxian was wearing a dress similar to a suspender skirt. The entire skirt was covered with gold flakes, reflecting dazzling golden light. There are fiery red lines around the skirt. With just a few stitches, the shape of flames is embroidered, and above the flames is a phoenix made of gold pieces.
The entire audience was in an uproar not only because of the priceless golden clothes, but more importantly because of the Luo Xian at this moment.
She made a flying pose with her right leg on the ground and her left leg stretched back naturally. She closed her eyes and faced the sun with an expression of enjoyment on her face, as if she was feeling the touch of the sun. Her hands were raised in various postures that were graceful and magnificent.
And the most amazing thing is that there are two wings on her back that are fluttering in the wind. Those are actually not wings but two laces embroidered with red-based gold silk thread.
Looking at it this time, Luoxian is really like a proud phoenix being reborn in the flames!
"Phoenix Nirvana! Phoenix Nirvana!" Everyone got excited and shouted loudly and exclaimed.
Luoxian's right foot was light and her whole body slowly twisted, but she still landed on one leg and kept changing various movements.
No one knew when the performance ended. When they woke up, they found that Kou Baimen on the high platform had disappeared.
Since then, the word "Kou Baimen" has spread throughout Ling Province.
A few years later, a poet who was lucky enough to witness this dance wrote the eternal poem "Phoenix Tour on the Phoenix Platform" after being drunk.
