Chapter 186 Goddess Festival

On the Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of May, before dawn, the Jinwu Guards released the night ban, and the doors of all workshops were wide open.

A large number of luxurious carriages gathered at the gates of several wealthy districts of Fangshi.At the moment when the gate of Fangshi opened, the carriage rushed in first.

These carriages are used by major restaurants to pick up nobles and high-ranking guests.

Naturally, there were noble people in Qinghuafang. Soon after, a carriage arrived at the door of the Seventeenth Prince's house, and another carriage drove to the Princess's Mansion.

"My God, are you here so early?"

After hearing the report from the concierge maid, Xiao Huan rubbed her eyes and said, "Let the carriage wait first. The county matriarch must wash up first, then have breakfast, and then go out."

Tang Ji'er, the maid on duty at the concierge, seemed quite anxious: "The person who picked up the county matriarch said that everything has been prepared for the county matriarch in Wanhualou, and it won't be too late to wash and eat after going there. You must leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, there will be too many people in a while, and the road will be blocked. Now some people have started to fight for seats by the Luohe River, although the county matriarch does not need to compete with those people, but the carriage will always pass by there."

Xiao Huan glared: "They Wanhualou really dare to speak. What kind of character is our county ma ye? How can he leave without washing? Be their servant? No, you go out and tell that person, you have to wait." .”

Tang Xun'er was so anxious that she wanted to stomp her feet, but she didn't leave after hearing what Xiao Huan said, as if she wanted to stay here.

At this time Su Yu came out: "Xiao Huan, there is no need to argue. I have already washed in advance."

"Oh! When did the magistrate get the water?"

"Oh, you are sleeping like pigs, I can't bear to wake you up."

Seeing that Su Yu was ready, Tang Ji'er smiled happily, and turned her head to leave, but Xiao Huan grabbed her ear: "Tell me the truth, are you taking advantage of him?"

"No, no, I didn't take the money." Tang Zhuer said with a bitter face, shrinking her neck.

"I didn't say you took the money, but you took the initiative to mention the money. You are a thief and you are not calling yourself." Xiao Huan raised her head: "Take it out and show me!"

Tang Zhu'er grinned and cried, but covered her sleeves with her small hands.

Xiao Huan stretched out her hand to pick and pull, insisting on checking.

At this time Su Yu came over and patted Xiao Huan: "Don't embarrass her, let her go."

The eldest Xiao Huan was happy, pouted and said: "We were taught this by Wang Xun and Lin Wan when we were young. This is the rule of the Tang family, and one generation teaches the next. If she is let go today, she will get used to it, and it will be even more difficult to control in the future. "Muttered in a low voice: "I'm doing this for her own good too."

Su Yu smiled: "Tang Ji'er, you heard it, remember not to accept it again in the future."

The little maid hummed, and left crying.

Gossip less, Su Yu came to the bank of the Luo River in the morning light, and climbed onto the high platform like stars holding the moon.Looking around, the scene was huge, and at such a time, there were already crowds of spectators appearing in the audience.The contestants in the major restaurants have already dressed up and sat in the floats.Each of the beautiful girls is so eye-catching, pink and fair, and tall, each of them has a world-renowned appearance.

It is not easy to say that this group of museum girls can survive until today.Which one is not selected thousands of times, and after hard training and cruel selection, it is only in exchange for a bright day.But after the scenery is over, the hard days waiting for them are still long.All of them are cash cows in the brothel of the art museum, and they spend their best time laughing and drinking with each other.When the appearance is old, unable to hold the high-rise buildings, and being squeezed down layer by layer by newcomers, how many will eventually become red houses.

And these girls did not come to the brothel voluntarily.Either they are lonely orphans, or they are sold by their parents.It's not like those women in the later generations and alleys, most of them are lazy, self-satisfied and depraved, and they are not worthy of sympathy.

Thinking of this, Su Yu felt bad, and felt that the beauties in the audience were so pitiful.

"I'm reporting to the chief bustard, Mr. Xu refused to come. He just handed us the poem stickers, and said that he has two poems in the hands of the county matriarch." The boy from Wanhualou hurried onto the stage and said.

"What? He's not coming?" Suzaku changed color suddenly: "I gave him all the money, so why not come?"

The boy said: "Not all of the 300 million was given to Mr. Xu, and he was about to be taken away by Tang Xianshe. Mr. Xu returned the 50 he received to us, and said that the remaining 250 million would go to Tang Qi."

Su Yu sat on the side, helplessly said: "He is very quiet, he doesn't like to show his face, and he is most afraid of this big scene. Count me as negligent, I will invite him."

"Don't." Suzaku said, "You'd better sit still, and I'll send someone to invite you."

Su Yu waved his hand: "It's useless, you can't invite him. When that guy commits a crime, he can't be pulled away without a rope."

At this time, a person appeared from the audience and shouted: "Jinfeng, what a sight, can you give us a seat?"

Su Yu saw that it was Ouyang Jing, and said happily, "Brother Jing came just in time, you can run for me, go home to find Tang Qi, and order someone to tie up Xu Luochen for me. As long as he comes, you will have a seat .”

Su Yu didn't worry about what method Ouyang Jing used to get Xu Luochen here.As the saying goes, one thing falls on one thing, Ouyang Jing specially descends on Xu Luochen.It doesn't matter what you say, just grab your neck and leave, you won't tolerate him.

Song and dance performance in the morning, poetry meeting in the afternoon, and the end of the poetry meeting is the highlight of the show.

After watching the performance all morning, Su Yu finally got a taste of Liang Chao's singing and dancing skills.To be honest, the song is not very good, but the dance is still very good.Especially the group dance is even more pleasing to the eye.In the middle of the song and dance, Xu Luochen hid behind Ouyang Jing like a thief, with a strange look that he was afraid of being seen, covering half of his face with his long sleeves from time to time.

Although he was secretive, he was still recognized by his fans and shouted his name.As soon as he heard someone calling his name, Xu Luochen immediately changed into a different look.With his hands behind his back, he looked like a handsome young man.Walk with your head held high.From time to time, he waved to his fans, showing a literati demeanor.

"Oh, it's better to be on stage, haha, Jinfeng, we borrowed all from you again."

Ouyang Jing climbed onto the high platform, found a good seat, and was overjoyed.

After the group dance is over, the following are the performances of the goddesses selected by the major restaurants, which are nothing more than singing and dancing.It can be seen that the goddesses selected by the three art museums are obviously higher in appearance and skills.Presumably this year the Goddess must fall into the hands of the three families.

But at this moment, the crowd parted in the distance, and a king's chariot came rushing under the protection of cavalry guards, followed by a float.

Su Yu asked Suzaku: "Who is this?"

Suzaku said: "Prince Geng Zhao Zhun bought a corner in Pingkangfang, and is building the 'Kaiyuan Pavilion', known as the No. The Planting Flower Pavilion bought the oiran Dou Caixian to participate in this competition. In addition, Mr. Fan Zhengming, a famous writer, was invited to come out of the mountain. Mr. Fan had already claimed to live in seclusion, but in the end he couldn’t beat Prince Geng. Fan Zhengming didn’t release any new works in half a year. It is said that For the past six months, he has been staying in Prince Geng's mansion, writing poems for the prince. He just waits for this year's Doucai Poetry Competition, and one vote will be shaken out to win the first prize."

Speaking of this, Suzaku's eyes were slightly worried.She also read Xu Luochen's recent poems, and she didn't think highly of them, so she was very disappointed.I don't have much confidence in today's poetry meeting.Su Yu didn't care about this poetry meeting, but was rather interested in the name "Kaiyuan Pavilion".

Gossip less, finally arrived at the stage of fighting poems.

Fan Lou, Yan Xue and the four major writers were all invited out today.The Meng Family Beauty Academy invited Lou Chuan and Yan Wuyuan.Ximen's Caiyun Pavilion invited Xue Xing.In Kaiyuan Pavilion, Fan Zhengming was even in charge.At Wanhualou, there was also a new celebrity, Xu Luochen, delivering poems.Other museums also invited poets, but they couldn't compare with these five.

The poetry meeting is divided into five rounds of competition, and each poet has to deliver five poems.Ten bachelors from Taixue University and Jixiandian Academy were invited to comment on the spot and give scores.In each round, 40 art galleries submitted poems. After the three rounds of poetry competition, Xu Luochen's three poems ranked No. [-] ninth, third, and fourth respectively.

Seeing such results, Xu Luochen was ashamed.Countless fans off the field were even more disappointed, all sighed in resentment, and some even began to curse.Calling that Xu Luochen is a dirty person who buys poems to deceive the world.Xu Luochen put his hands on his head and face, sobbing softly.

At this moment, Su Yu took out the poem stickers from his sleeve and handed them to the lady in the hall to present.Looking at the look of the goddess in that hall, she is also depressed.Every time she goes on stage, she gets the worst comments.Who has no face yet.Although this poem was not written by her, after all, she was the one who stood there to receive and deliver the poems, and felt ashamed.

But not long after, a song "Butterfly Loves Flowers" was recited aloud by the bachelor:

Leaning on the dangerous building, the wind is fine, looking very sad in the spring, and the sky is gloomy.In the grassy smoky afterglow, who is speechless will rely on it.

It is planned to drunken the madman, and sing to the wine, Qiang Le is still tasteless. The belt gradually widened and he didn't regret it.

Another song, "Su Mu Zhe":
Green sky, yellow leaf ground.The autumn colors continue to wave, and the waves are cold and smokey.The mountain reflects the setting sun and catches the water.The grass is ruthless, even outside the setting sun.

Desperate soul, chasing travel thinking.Unless every night, good dreams stay asleep.Mingyue Tower is high and rests alone.When the wine enters the sorrow, it turns into tears of lovesickness.

When these two words broke out, there was an uproar in the audience.

It reached the top of the list with almost full marks, far ahead of other poems.

The fans who were originally disappointed in Xu Luochen suddenly found a breaking point, celebrated wildly, roared and cheered, and cried bitterly. The scene was so enthusiastic that it is hard to describe.
