Plane of Immortal Cultivation

Chapter 107
The boy covered his face, with an innocent face, and asked earnestly, "Hua Niang, why did you hit me?"

"I'm upset, do I need a reason to beat you?"

Hua Niang glared at the young man, beating herself was too painful, she should beat the young man to vent her anger.

The boy was three points shorter, and said in a low voice, "No need, I should fight."

"If you don't get out and serve the guests well, I'll go and persuade Mr. Xiang. You can't play childish temper at this time. This is related to the future of Mengchunzhai."

Now Hua Niang regrets that her intestines are turning green, but the evil she has done, no matter how hard it is, she has to bear it.

Qin Guan took Zheng Da and Xiong Da to board the boat in the Caiyi Museum, and Ling Yiren took a few girls to welcome Qin Guan.

The brothels in Hangzhou are very interesting. When they reach the age of making money, they will give the girls nicknames. Each brothel has its own specific surname. The women's surname is Ling, and the women in Xinyuelou are all surnamed Chu.

Prostitution is a cheap industry, and it is the dirtiest kind. It insults the ancestors. Naturally, they cannot use the ancestors' surnames to show others, so the brothel came up with such a way to hide their surnames for a little comfort.

At this time, on the first floor of Huafang, there were already several tables of guests. Qin Guan went over and didn't know anyone. Qin Guan was treated better and was arranged on the second floor. Now there is only one table for Qin Guan.

Seeing the people leaving, Zheng Da whispered excitedly: "Brother Shaoyou, this year is your honor, you don't know, the three boats of Mengchunzhai, Xinyuelou and Caiyiguan are the most difficult to get on. Even if they come up, they will usually only be arranged on the first floor, unless they are high-ranking officials or talented people, they may be arranged in private rooms on the second floor, I have been honored by you this year."

Qin Guan understands the truth that people must ask for something under courtesy.

Not long after, Ling Yiren came over with a very pretty little girl, and said to Qin Guan: "Young Master Qin, this is my new younger sister from the Caiyi Pavilion this year, her name is Ling Xiang'er, and she will participate in this year's Oiran Competition , specially summoned to toast Mr. Qin."

Qin Guan looked at this little girl, she was only fourteen or fifteen years old, she was very beautiful, especially her eyes were bright and translucent, which made people like it very much, but Qin Guan had no other thoughts, although this girl was beautiful, but she was missing A bit of a mature woman's taste, at most it can be regarded as the category of top-quality big lolita, not Qin Guan's dish.

Ancient people seem to like this kind of young teeth. At the age of eighteen or nineteen like Ling Yiren, it is the time when the flowers are blooming gorgeously. To the people here, it already smells like yesterday's yellow flowers.

It's not that they are not beautiful anymore, it's purely caused by men's love of the new and dislike of the old.

No matter how good they are, they are just men's playthings.

They may still be popular for three to five years, but now there is a sense of crisis. After all, newcomers come out in large numbers, and men's hearts are changeable.

The little girl timidly filled a glass of wine for Qin Guan, poured another glass for herself, and said in a low voice, "Nu Lingxiang'er respects Mr. Qin."

Qin Guan picked up the wine glass and drank it.

After putting down the wine glass, Qin Guan asked, "What talent did you learn?"

"I followed Elder Sister Yiren and learned libretto, pipa, and some guzheng." Ling Xianger said.

Qin Guan nodded, each brothel also has its own traditions, Caiyi Hall focuses on lyrics and music, Xinyue Building focuses on dancing, and Meng Chun Zhai mainly cultivates women with literary talents, the kind of women who are both talented and beautiful.

Several of them have their specialties, so it's no wonder that these three are the most famous three brothels in Hangzhou today. The others can't keep up with them and can only be reduced to second-rate.

Ling Xiang'er was not accompanying her, she had to prepare for the performance later, but Ling Yiren sat down and drank with Qin Guan.

Zheng Da was very excited. In the past, these oirans would leave after playing and singing a song at most. How could they let Ling Yiren accompany them to drink in person when they were so close? Today is considered to be here.

Although Zheng Da is not good at reading, he is very good at adjusting the atmosphere. Although there are only three of them at the table, they don't look deserted.

The second floor of Mengchunzhai Painting Boat.

Three people at a table were drinking and chatting, two of them were Shen Yichen and Zhu Peng. Opposite Shen Yichen was an elegant-looking young man, wearing an ice-blue silk cross-neck gown with elegant bamboo leaf patterns embroidered with snow-white piping, his face revealed Very confident expression.

This person is Mr. Lin Yuanlin who is called the number one talented man in the south of the Yangtze River by Hua Niang.Lin Yuan's family affairs are good, his father is a direct scholar of Jialongtuge, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, the Lin family is a big family in Suzhou, Lin Yuan's talents are outstanding, and he is also good at poetry, he was Jie Yuan in the last Jiangnan provincial examination.

He has good friends with Shen Yichen and Zhu Peng, and this time he came to play just in time for the Oiran Competition, so he was invited by Shen Yichen.

Lin Yuan watched the commotion, saw Qin Guan boarding the boat in the Caiyi Pavilion, turned his head to Shen Yichen and said, "Is that person Qin Guan and Qin Shaoyou just now? I’ve read it all, and it’s really amazing, brother Shen, I heard that your limelight has been completely suppressed by him.”

Lin Yuan looked at Shen Yichen jokingly and said.

Shen Yichen said very simply: "I'm not as skilled as others. I'm willing to bow down. The first time I met him, he wrote a poem "Magpie Bridge Immortal" and asked me to tear up the poem I had already written. The second time I met him at the Luming Banquet. The song "When will the moon be there" shocked everyone, and the lyrics are still echoing in my mind, I am afraid that I will not be able to write such a good word in my life."

Lin Yuandao: "Then Qin Guan refused Master Meng's invitation, saying that he didn't want to talk about poetry and papers, but just came out to relax. It's a really bad reason."

Zhu Peng smiled: "You don't know, Qin Guan is also like this at ordinary times. His few poems were all written in the imperial examination, Qixi poetry meeting, and Luming banquet. Usually, many people invite him to participate in the poetry meeting. He refused, Brother Shen made friends with him, and he also refused to invite him to join the poetry club, do you know what he said?"

Lin Yuan was curious: "What did he say?"

"He said poetry was just a game."

Lin Yuan was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, "Now I'm also interested in this Qin Guan. Brother Shen, if you have a chance, you can introduce me."

Shen Yichen said: "Now, why don't we go to the Caiyi Hall to find him."

Lin Yuan raised his hand to stop Shen Yichen: "Brother Shen, don't be in a hurry. Since Qin Guan said that poetry is a game, let's play with him first." Lin Yuan has always been very conceited. He was determined to win,
Shen Yichen was taken aback, "What are you going to do?"

Lin Yuan smiled and didn't speak, but ordered the maidservant next to him, "Go and invite the girl Mengluoyu, I have a new poem for her."

Not long after, Mengluoyu came here. She was only fourteen or five years old, but she had a beautiful face, but when you looked at her, she didn't have any lewd thoughts. Instead, she looked more like a lady from a big family, revealing A kind of intellectual beauty.

Followed by Hua Niang.
