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。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURmUAlXcrS

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。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCw6dKTJ5se

「我要去見天子！」芸兒告訴老爹。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSCKpqTh7o
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdXpBmgjS3
「為甚麼？」老爹吃驚低頭望向矮小的女兒。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCfgoSuLAX
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBhQxJMbPA
「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。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSw5LeEXJ4T
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMs3gWqA4t
「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。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnTHLzpfq7
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDsV0jkJ5g
「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！」668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FbbrQ3vwj
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEVlGDQE9I
「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。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FobAoOdIX
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kwrWECZYY
自尊一損，鼻子一酸，眼眶一紅，芸兒答不上話。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwtHr5F1di
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwubZdRLim
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。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5KignumT3
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmF8ixDGot
聽在耳裡，芸兒豈會不介懷，但只能一笑置之。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Sxw0YHMxU
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhYMlLGA2r
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。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTNCeKsLvA
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezNvkOaHF6
「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。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7t6g9fZ4b
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniWoMlPztk
哄堂大笑。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzZiOEbJtC
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbh40BbFhbl
「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。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSGZExLSht
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5uWINIXzS
「你想大家如何處理你？」醉客樂極忘形，大開黃腔。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbbTrWfBBI
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYC8uQo33AW
「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。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mPXaniSmH
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfD1HXCmD3q
眾人笑得前仰後翻……668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJe00onnk7q
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9uFhYbNcY
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。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd66im3fP9b
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZMnm12Izg
「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。」668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyW5DsMG9a
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQ8yOtLnxM
「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。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIsX8OyITg
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ElOSbwMCM
「不痛嗎？」老婦言簡意賅，神情淡然。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxalIYE9RRc
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqlN3ArAxb
「再痛也是要過活呀！」芸兒豪氣萬千，一笑盡泯恩仇。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTiHNohfue
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEBnvWg9u4
老婦心領神會，閉目暗忖，從懷中取出一把紙扇。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvwymtoGuS
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagnSSE7WVg
「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。」668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOo7Gb7bEO
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACqUo8kwdz
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……」668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbV0DLGb7uW
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbayMDcDEn
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！」668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0C0W3h2V93
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbU5mlT5PPI
此話一出，女伴們旋即目露凶光，殺意畢露。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp931P6Nyh0
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JWXnXpvys
「好一個女漢子！」老婦樂極，仰首大笑，及時阻止女伴發難。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQk9JUHr6vq
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihKSy2zsoC
「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。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqqo8tJfNb
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTI62qQjIvS
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。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAg1O8t2sS3
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HxotfANEv
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。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8hnl6t8cO
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMva7Qtumrw
幾日後，查明真相的宰相親臨天牢，釋放芸兒。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65mFscuDfS
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvX0lQLvxT4
「你知道當日的老婦是誰？」668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoAeLPc5Kv
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIS4U1zeLM
「不知道。大概是個高官夫人吧。」668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Vng4hue3O
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLe8lIgqzR
「你真是有眼不識泰山！」668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gNlCBQTpL

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。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXTX4Sd0KY
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJz3S43MDzh
芸兒心如死灰，徹底沉溺在傷痛當中。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVv1MSpSch
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOlzlMDbRr
因何而痛？痛在失去伯樂、失去知音、失去希望。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡie4oGWO3q3
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdUyIyjPTt
那夜的每個眼神、每句豪言，都是兩個孤獨靈魂的深切交流。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1ofGKfYbF
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOJhFMeuQW
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。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxLUFNAcGP
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykb03vrWeQ
奈何二人身份懸殊……668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgSh8SOSJv
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZpZ5sg0yo
芸兒獲釋後離開長安，自此杳無音訊。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDmp4NvjJi
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09wNxmncSp
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。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiOutaAKIX

同年年底，失蹤五年的芸兒突然重踏故土，與親人共聚天倫。668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KauOHxsDe
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3Vos2JxVH
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！」668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE84wcujVSt
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnki2mrBGJM
芸兒聽罷，嫣然一笑：「是木是龍我作主，我命由我不由天。」668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13vpzB4Nrl
668Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK12GQSxZQl
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。
