In Chang'an City, at the end of Zhuque Street, there is an unnamed tavern.
Some people call it the proprietress's tavern, some call it Guiju, and more people simply call it Chang'an Wine Shop.
Drinks are sold here, but in exchange for stories.
Frustrated people come to drink, and proud people come to drink. Among these people are unknown people, martial arts masters, wealthy businessmen, and big shots in the court.
There are three rules in the tavern:
1. You can get drunk, but you can't cause trouble.
2. The knife cannot be unsheathed.
3. After leaving this door, Bento has never heard of everything here.
There is a saying circulating in Chang'an City: It is better to break into the prison than to destroy the tavern.
The landlady is dressed in red and can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk. Rumor has it that she is waiting for someone who will never come back.
No one knows the origin of the landlady.
Some say she was once a demonic saint;
Some say she comes from a century-old family;
Some people also say that she has an unclear relationship with the royal family.
But no matter in the world or in the court, everyone was courteous to her.
She didn't ask about the visitor's identity or the ending of the story. She just sat under the lights on the second floor, drinking and listening to the joys and sorrows of the world.
Some people come to seek revenge, and some come to find a way out. Some people come to say goodbye, and some people come to let go.
And those stories that are spoken will eventually stay in the tavern, brewing into jars of old wine over time.
It wasn't until many years later that people gradually understood.
She was never just waiting for one person.
She is looking at all living beings, and she is also looking at herself.
"I have wine, do you have a story?"
