客棧位於沙漠邊陲，由一對夫婦和五名兒女經營，客人大多是經由沙漠進出中土的商旅。十歲的芸兒排行第三，負責為投棧商旅送餐和添置日用品，偶爾會充當嚮導，帶他們到鎮內市集採購物資。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuc8pUwbHN

商旅們很喜歡這機靈乖巧的女生，會給她講述家鄉的風土人情、大唐天子的仁政、中土與西域在文化上的異同……頃刻間，整個世界濃縮在芸兒耳邊。遼闊無垠的，多姿多彩的。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxWqzPGTVf

「我要去見天子！」芸兒告訴老爹。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbxuBYs3UI
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGUFAtDhB4
「為甚麼？」老爹吃驚低頭望向矮小的女兒。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqU2cPqSy34
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPOaee0nGJ
「我想知道他的宅子為何能容納三千個妻子！不會很擠擁嗎？」芸兒畢竟是個孩子，動機十分單純。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZXg1b6jxN
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTAXK2opXI
「他的宅子很大、很大，所以能夠容納多人。」老爹假笑一聲，敷衍回應。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGizTv5Ssb9
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Jp1YrTgnB
「我也要當他的妻！」芸兒立下宏願。「然後帶著大家入住他的宅子！」524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiSwGq4YfO
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwyK3d3cNH
「女啊！木門要對木門，竹門也要對竹門，更何況是天子的龍門！那不是我等尋常百姓家能夠對得上！」老爹當即笑得彎了腰，笑她不自量力。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXc6ZaOuPut
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAAr3BA6K9
自尊一損，鼻子一酸，眼眶一紅，芸兒答不上話。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamkxhBBObh
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcRfde4JVI
匆匆廿載，兄弟姐妹早已嫁娶遷出，兒孫滿堂。只有芸兒一人雲英未嫁，伴在爹娘身邊打理生意。鄰里經常取笑她，笑她一口歪理，說甚麼木門可以對龍門。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9T5bzOBN7G
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3c5YtZ3Bi
聽在耳裡，芸兒豈會不介懷，但只能一笑置之。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUmwWnaH0V
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbDFOoX9aX
近年天氣變幻莫測，沙塵暴肆虐，少有商旅橫越沙漠，客棧生意銳減。為了糊口，芸兒心生一計，乾脆以自己的伶牙俐齒作招徠，為客棧招生意。在多少個天氣惡劣的夜晚，她粉墨登場，以一根巧舌力敵無數賤嘴。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcIgJ8ImOu
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzHnO2m3bV
「說甚麼木門對龍門？你連茅房的破布簾也不如！」酒客無情直擊芸兒心房。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf51BagF4cs
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CDYIU3ent
哄堂大笑。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwggtxaf3pA
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXEMSkXoHv
「我不知道自己是否破布簾，只知一塊布可有百種用途，視乎大家如何處理。」芸兒幾經風霜，早已變得圓滑世故。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AWYY3XAYh
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpHc2UKKpw
「你想大家如何處理你？」醉客樂極忘形，大開黃腔。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VL2gSF3FY
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8dgZXFlzL
「想大家無條件給老娘數百元寶買個好夫君！」芸兒將自己的痛處當笑料，給客人佐酒。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFihjVN2lL
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5qRx0rOnR
眾人笑得前仰後翻……524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUpMv93M0J
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgjjAItd0i
夜深，曲終人散。酒客要不或爬或躝歸家去，要不醉得不省人事，被芸兒一家抬上客房。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwNFOodYu5
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5p23fELggX
「一石二鳥。」說話的是一名老婦。整個晚上，她與四名年輕女伴獨佔一枱，要了滿桌清淡的小吃伴白粥，邊吃邊默默觀看芸兒的鬧劇。「既能大賣酒水，又能名正言順向醉客索房租。很不錯的頭腦。」524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwMRcKFu8Q
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwB2F2frzTg
「過獎！」芸兒得意上前答話。由她們踏入店面一刻，芸兒已倍加留意。舉止得體，談吐有禮。衣著說不上光鮮，但也穿戴整齊，不染塵垢。想必是低調行事的大戶人家。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVVPz55trt
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1yUt4pzgw
「不痛嗎？」老婦言簡意賅，神情淡然。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviR3yU6q66
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiA50tFs70i
「再痛也是要過活呀！」芸兒豪氣萬千，一笑盡泯恩仇。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz54aack7Rc
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOaLdvlg3Y
老婦心領神會，閉目暗忖，從懷中取出一把紙扇。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVfbMsLyeQ
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhpKDNz4sV
「三個選擇。一，攜紙扇，親到長安，然後得官位；二，棄紙扇，立取萬金；三，棄紙扇，棄萬金，立當清官夫人。」524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXc0SsWSbiT
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf57piUxQMR
爹娘聞言，驚覺老婦乃官場中人。二人馬上勸芸兒立取萬金，不要涉足官場：「我們只是尋常百姓，沒有本事……」524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sx0xfMufo
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRgZCPxOs6
芸兒打斷父母的話，執意取過紙扇：「我才不是對木門的木門，也不是對竹門的竹門，更不是對龍門的龍門！」524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdppHv0aznB
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8N4StXN1RW
此話一出，女伴們旋即目露凶光，殺意畢露。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAiyxqy8tv
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RhOVtPa9l
「好一個女漢子！」老婦樂極，仰首大笑，及時阻止女伴發難。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPpTeD1jGe
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgv1GXvrCkK
「你等我！我會讓你見識我有何本事成為龍門的龍！」芸兒未有察覺異樣，眼中只有對未來的無限憧憬。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tqnryHIb9
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oIe4CYMtE
懶理父母勸阻，芸兒孤身前往長安。風塵僕僕，路途遙遠，她花上一年才到達目的地。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqspQesSH6
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqlRTm5F3j
根據女伴們當日的指示，芸兒去到城內宰相府，拿出紙扇予宰相過目。宰相接過紙扇，面色一變，命家丁將芸兒速速拿下，打入天牢，酷刑審問。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEubg7iGsg
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXz8E0hGab
幾日後，查明真相的宰相親臨天牢，釋放芸兒。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwzHiQSiYZ
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpg3UQnOyv
「你知道當日的老婦是誰？」524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfRmiMrTIp
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjSSRPfqE1
「不知道。大概是個高官夫人吧。」524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9WNq2H80B
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9opgWrx9d
「你真是有眼不識泰山！」524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyvf6dIvYs

原來老婦是武后武則天。當年，她帶著四位武功高強的女侍衛微服出巡，暗中考察與西域通商的必經之路，偶遇芸兒一家……武后回宮後遭遇政變，被逼襌位予兒子李顯（唐中宗），幽禁深宮，至今已無實權。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Qojj22d5n
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpezGH2EEWu
芸兒心如死灰，徹底沉溺在傷痛當中。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62Ld8qqgIv
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡql8IxvxpGF
因何而痛？痛在失去伯樂、失去知音、失去希望。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFYLjBuQW6
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQrjFj0eKE
那夜的每個眼神、每句豪言，都是兩個孤獨靈魂的深切交流。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkSboXZdgU
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPd7YTEak9
彼此就是對方的一面鏡。武后從芸兒身上看見自己的勇氣與機智，芸兒從武后身上看見自己的堅忍與沉著。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFWGnPR4jG
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkY4FEFGFf
奈何二人身份懸殊……524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzVpV5yyng
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gIxN5xdKO
芸兒獲釋後離開長安，自此杳無音訊。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5g6uNk1LbZ
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7m2w0f4p4
半個月後，被幽禁的武則天身邊多了一個不知由來的大齡婢女。婢女一直侍奉左右，直至武則天離世。該婢女聰慧機敏、忠心不二，武則天親信上官婉兒遂將其留於身邊。及後，唐中宗駕崩，韋后權傾朝野。上官婉兒助太平公主（武則天之女）及臨淄王李隆基（武則天之孫）發動政變，殺韋后及其黨羽。至此，該名不經傳的婢女下落不明。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SBdF1yzXw

同年年底，失蹤五年的芸兒突然重踏故土，與親人共聚天倫。524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgokfOpp2et
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9buiduVund
鄰里見芸兒仍是孑然一身，不忘予以嘲弄：「說甚麼木門對龍門？你連茅房的破布簾也不如！」524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vR6XIAWy8
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZefXJ46O8K
芸兒聽罷，嫣然一笑：「是木是龍我作主，我命由我不由天。」524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71khc65SqW
524Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79R0h6gkVm
註：女主角十歲的時候，武則天尚未稱帝，當朝天子還是李系男兒。所以她的童言是合乎邏輯的。
