Confucianism is supreme? I am reciting Tang poems in another world!
Chapter 40 Li Ge, Ci Song, you know me, I am not as good as Long Yang
"By the way, although Miss Li Ge is a girl in my building, she is still innocent. Until now, not many men have seen her true appearance.
Even among the dignitaries in Zhongzhou City, few people have the honor to see her true appearance. If a man can pass our test, it is enough to prove his talent and ability. At that time, he can have a close relationship with her."
"I see." Ci Song nodded.
"Some time ago, the young master of Prime Minister Zhang wanted to see Miss Li Ge, but was rejected because of his lack of talent. Do you want to give it a try, Master Xu?" Hongniang smiled.
"How much silver?" Xu Shaocong obviously understood the rules here, so he asked directly about the price of participating in the assessment.
"Oh, look at what you said, Master Xu is a distinguished guest of our Cuiyuan Building, how dare Hongniang ask you for money?" Hongniang's eyes turned, and she smiled and said: "Since Master Xu wants to participate, Hongniang will introduce you for free. However, this assessment is not simple, I wonder if Master Xu has the confidence?"
"It's just for fun, why take it seriously?" Xu Shaocong smiled and took out two silver notes of 100 taels from his waist and handed them to Hongniang, saying: "I will give it a try, but I don't know when this assessment will start?"
"Now." Hongniang smiled and put the silver notes in her pocket, saying: "Since it is poetry and songs, no outsiders can disturb it, so as not to affect the performance of the two young masters. The two of you follow Hongniang."
Hongniang took the two of them directly to the third floor. The space on the third floor was very spacious and the layout was quite elegant.
After Hongniang took Xu Shaocong and Ci Song into the third floor, she found that there were already quite a few people inside.
Among them, there were rich young men in brocade clothes, talented men with delicate faces, and some beautiful women.
All of these women were young women. They were either holding wine glasses and chatting and laughing with the men beside them; or playing the piano and singing poems; or writing beautiful articles with ink.
"Mr. Xu, please come this way."
Hongniang led the two into a room similar to a study. The layout inside was also very elegant. Several calligraphy and paintings were hung on the wall, and the four treasures of the study were placed on the table. There was also a pot of orchids on the table, exuding a faint fragrance.
"Miss Li Ge is behind the screen. The two young masters can start to show their talents. I just hope that the two young masters can understand that this is Cuiyuan Tower, so don't mess around." Hongniang pointed to the huge screen not far away and told the two.
"Hongniang, Shaocong knows the rules, so don't worry." Xu Shaocong responded with a smile.
Hongniang nodded with a smile, and then whispered to the two of them: "If they were ordinary talents, Hongniang would never bring them here. This is for the sake of Master Xu."
"Thank you, Hongniang." Xu Shaocong took out another silver note of 100 taels and handed it to Hongniang.
Hongniang's smile became even bigger, and then she shouted to the figure behind the screen: "Miss Li Ge, these two are here to accept your test."
She saw the figure behind the screen nodded slightly, and then turned around and left the room.
Ci Song and Xu Shaocong looked at each other, and then walked forward. They saw that in front of the screen was a desk with a stack of rice paper, a brush, and an inkstone on the table.
Behind the screen was a beauty couch, and a woman was sitting on the beauty couch. The gauze curtain was hanging down, so her appearance could not be seen clearly, but her skin exposed outside was as white as cream.
Ci Song's attention was on the desk. He saw two words written on the top rice paper, "Li Ge". The font was chic and elegant, and it was definitely not something of the secular world. Seeing this, Ci Song couldn't help but exclaimed, "Good handwriting!"
And Xu Shaocong on the side, his eyes were all on the shadow behind the screen. This shadow alone could be called graceful, and this woman could be called "absolutely beautiful".
Ci Song took a deep breath, then turned to look at Xu Shaocong and said, "Shaocong, come on, show it."
"Show what?" Xu Shaocong turned his head and looked at Ci Song curiously.
"Show your talent, so that you can see Miss Li Ge's face."
Ci Song sat on a chair beside him, picked up a teapot, opened the lid and smelled it, confirmed that it was tea, and poured himself a cup.
Xu Shaocong on the side was very calm. He waved his hand and said, "You don't know me yet? I don't have any talent. I have some skills in archery, but I don't know any other martial arts."
"Then why did you spend so much money to come here?" Ci Song's face was full of confusion.
Xu Shaocong said disapprovingly, "It's not much, just three hundred taels of silver. It's worth it to see Miss Li Ge here."
Hearing this, Ci Song looked at Xu Shaocong with a strange look in his eyes, because his behavior reminded him of a person, no, a sheep.
That's right, it's "Fei Yangyang".
Ci Song coughed twice and said, "Ahem, Shaocong, you just spent three hundred taels of silver like this, don't you feel bad?"
"No, I don't feel bad."
"You're awesome." Ci Song gave Xu Shaocong a thumbs up, then drank the tea in the cup, and then said, "Shaocong, how about this, if you have so much money, you come to my room, I'll also put up a screen, and then put on a wig and pretend to be a woman. I'll ask you for less, and you can look at me once, how about giving me two hundred taels?"
After hearing Ci Song's answer, Xu Shaocong was stunned. He really didn't expect Ci Song to say such a shocking thing. He didn't know how to answer for a while.
"Well, that, Ci Song, you know me. I, I don't have a good relationship with men." Xu Shaocong said awkwardly.
"I didn't say you were a gay. What I meant was that you look like a fool now." Ci Song looked at Xu Shaocong and shook his head.
"What is a fool?" Xu Shaocong said puzzledly.
"It's Xu Shaocong."
Xu Shaocong was stunned. He didn't expect Ci Song to say that, but he soon understood that Ci Song wanted to persuade him not to waste money.
"Hey, who made us have no talent?" Xu Shaocong said frankly. For him, three hundred taels of silver was not much. It was worth it to be able to see the shadow of Miss Li Ge.
"Forget it, for the sake of your treat this time, how about I help you once?" As he said, Ci Song stood up and came to the desk.
"Master Ci, you don't know as many characters as I do, do you? Besides, can you really write?" Xu Shaocong looked at Ci Song with doubt.
"Then I'll pretend to be a woman. How about two hundred taels each time?"
"Ci Song, I'll grind the ink for you, and you write. I believe in your talent." Xu Shaocong picked up the graphite beside him and started grinding it on the inkstone.
