Start with the humble bridegroom

Chapter 114
Luozhu's singing voice and Xu Niangzi are two extremes.

Ms. Xu's voice is sweet, and she breathes out and reads words with an extremely sensitive tongue and throat, which is natural without any edges and corners.And Luozhu has a natural singing voice, with a very wide range of vocals, tactful and sonorous, and can be easily transformed. It also has a faint watery sound, which is particularly ear-catching.

After singing a song, everyone applauded loudly.

Shi Xiu was the first to compliment her without hesitation.

"Miss Luozhu, where did you find such good words? The music composed by the girl is the icing on the cake and complements each other."

Luozhu glanced at Huo Bingcheng with a half-smile, and then at Zhang Zhe.

"Sister Yuxin taught me this during the day, but I heard it was Huo Langjun's masterpiece?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Zhe immediately looked out of the window, as if some flying fairy passed by outside the window on the third floor, looking very seriously.And Huo Bingcheng looked up at the roof, his eyes were filled with admiration, as if saying that the structure of the roof is really amazing!
When everyone saw that there were still people who didn't know the truth, they all laughed muffled.

A few people laughed and took Huo Bingcheng to drink, and made another song if he didn't drink.Huo Bingcheng gave Zhang Zhe all his winks, but Zhang Zhe was still admiring the "night" outside the window.This guy is desperate for help! ! !
It was Luo Zhu who came forward and called Shi Xiu and the others.

"You gentlemen, please be more careful. Don't let sister Yuxin from Hongzhaolou come to your house crying to trouble you. If you spoil her lover, you will never be able to go to that area of ​​Hongzhaolou again. "

Everyone laughed and stopped, Huo Bingcheng bowed to Luozhu haha ​​and thanked him.

Luozhu didn't smile either, and played another song by herself.

"The west wind misses the time, how can it be worthy of the autumn frost. The cold geese are sobbing in the afterglow, lying tired in the cloud town. The boat enters the lake and pond at night, and the paste warms the tea. Life is full of busyness, and one word is hesitant."

Zhang Zhe turned his head abruptly and stared at Luozhu.

This is what Meng Xiaowan said before she swore an oath to him on the lake, how could she know about it?

But Luozhu said unhurriedly: "This is the word sent by the third son of Li Luo the day before yesterday. Yesterday, it was said that the author changed two words and changed the word "Time" into a porthole. What do you think?"

Luo Chengfeng didn't dare to look at Zhang Zhe's puzzled eyes, and hesitated hastily.

"Miss Luozhu, it's better not to talk about this word, but it's something I heard from my sister at home, it's really inconvenient to pass it on."

The corner of Luo Zhu's mouth twitched slightly: "The concubine also had a discussion with Sister Su today, only to realize that this word was written in a letter received by the lady of the Luo family. It was written by the lady of Zhang Langjun's family. The lady is indeed a natural match with Zhang Langjun, and they are both talented people."

Zhang Zhe frowned, this Luozhu's temperament was too loose.

She is the one who studies drama most seriously during the day, but she always has some criticisms about presenting Meng Xiaowan's birthday, obviously thinking that Meng Xiaowan is not worthy of letting them perform on stage.If it wasn't for Su Mingyan to take the lead, this Luozhu might say something else.

In the evening, she deliberately sang his and Meng Xiaowan's works in front of Zhang Zhe, but she wanted to tell Zhang Zhe that Meng Xiaowan's talent was not worthy of her performing on stage.Now he reluctantly agrees, but for Zhang Zhe's sake.

What a cold and proud woman!

Zhang Zhe was unhappy, but he didn't get angry. Instead, he praised Meng Xiaowan based on Luo Zhu's words.

"My wife's talent and learning are far superior to Zhang's. She committed herself to marrying, and Zhang has benefited a lot. What can a husband ask for if he has a wife like this?"

"Oh?" Luozhu looked at it coldly. She had always suspected that Zhang Zhe actually invented the phrase "Smoke lock willow on the pond" for Meng Xiaowan, because when Meng Xiaowan was in her boudoir, although she was famous, there were no well-known works circulated. .

How could it be possible to marry Zhang Xinzhi as if she had opened her eyes? This song Xijiangyue is probably Meng Xiaowan's true level.

"My wife is different from Zhang, who only loves long and short sentences, just like this Xijiangyue is just a play. My wife has many excellent works, but in order not to suppress Zhang's limelight, she only reads them with me in her boudoir, and never spreads them out. It was written with the wife of the Luo family, but it was deliberately chosen as a plain gift."

"Then I don't know if this concubine is lucky enough to hear a long and short sentence from Mrs. Madam today, so as to solve my concubine's confusion? It's just that it won't be like Huo Langjun's story, right?"

The meaning in this sentence: Hmph, then you can take out a song and listen to it, and see if I am convinced by the girl.But if you did it yourself, don't take it out to deceive others.

Zhang Zhe nodded. To be honest, he has always wanted to make Meng Xiaowan famous, just to block Yuyao and Xu Niangzi's thoughts.

After all, he is a young man of blood and vigor, and now in the circle of mixed literati, he is everywhere in the world of mortals.In case some day a jerk gets into his head and does something wrong, he will be sorry for Meng Xiaowan's affection.

"Forget it, let me recite one of my lady's boudoir poems to you today, and you will know who wrote this poem after listening to it?"

"The wind lives in the dust, the fragrant flowers are gone, and I am tired of combing my hair day and night. Things are not people, but things are not resting. I want to speak and cry first. I heard that Shuangxi Spring is good, and I plan to go on a light boat. I am afraid that the Shuangxi boat will not be able to carry it. A lot of worries."

Bark~~~, the whole room is breathing.

What a pair of great talents in the literary world, this is God's plan to get a bunch of them!
Luozhu was stunned for a while, then got up lowly, and said a blessing deeply.

She hugged the pipa and closed her eyes to think about half a stick of incense. Then she played the pipa and sang the song "Wuling Spring".Just by listening to the emotions in her tone, Zhang Zhe knew that this Luozhu had already "convinced" Meng Xiaowan.

Only Huo Bingcheng, an idiot, asked Zhang Zhe repeatedly: "Believe me, where is this Shuangxi? When I have time, I will take my brother to visit."

Luo Zhu sang a total of seven or eight pieces before resigning, all without getting a penny.

As soon as Luozhu left, Luo Chengfeng applauded and sighed.

"It turns out that the poems and songs circulated by Xinzhi in the county are all composed by Miss Luozhu herself. Can Xinzhi have a good work, and a beautiful woman will be rewarded for her kindness?"

Zhang Zhe was about to shake his head, but he heard someone shouting outside.

"The envoys of the Xilu Kingdom passed through Wuling, and they are setting up a competition at the Yao Pavilion of Chu. The eight poems of Xilu's palace examination over the years are the masters of the competition. They invited me, a scholar of Dazheng, to take the competition. They also said that they would go all the way from Nanyang to Longjing. The three veteran generals of the Xilu Kingdom accompanied them. All my Wuling scholar's attacking poems have been reduced to nothing, which is really annoying! Where is Zhang Xinzhi~! Can it be here?"

Everyone became interested when they heard it, and they couldn't help but embrace Zhang Zhe and went downstairs.

Zhang Zhe didn't want to join in the fun at all, but Huo Bingcheng and Shi Xiu, two big men, grabbed their left and right hands respectively, and they left Yunyin Pavilion as if they were flying through the clouds, and marched towards Chuyao Pavilion with those who hugged each other.

There were still people talking on the road: "The envoys of Xilu have always paid tribute from Xijiang County. I don't want to come down to my Wuling and Nanyang today by detour. What's the reason for making such a detour?"

A well-informed yamen snorted back at him: "Xi Lu's martial arts have never been as good as my Da Zheng's. Now that the imperial court has made Zou Tianyang the Duke of Lan Ke County, it is clear that Lan Ke County has been brought under my Da Zheng's rule. Xi Lu Guoyan Don't hold back, this is sending people to sweep my Dazheng's face all the way, it can be seen that this is determined to be my enemy with Dazheng!"

Some people also said bitterly: "Eleven years ago, the envoys of the Xilu Kingdom set up this bureau along the way to Shangjing in Yanxijiang County, which caused me to lose face in Dazheng's literary world. Now it is repeating the old trick, but it is nothing new! Really hateful!"

The person who came to report said: "It's not that there is nothing new. This time, Xilu Kingdom set up four hundred guan prizes under each of the eight poems, and a total of more than 3000 taels of white money were placed on the floor. Naxi Lu envoy's entourage also said that the silver is heavy, and if you have to transport it all the way to Longjing and then back, it will wear them down forever, it's really annoying!"

Hearing so much money, Huo Bingcheng and Shi Xiu suddenly felt light in their hands. Zhang Zhe, who was extremely reluctant to step into the muddy water before, suddenly walked ahead with the wind under his feet.

Just listen to Zhang Xinzhi's righteous and stern words: "It's really deceiving people too much! Everyone, hurry up, don't let others be insulted by the Xilu people in advance!"
