Chapter 14: Provocation
A hundred flowers come together, and this activity has been there since the beginning of the establishment of the Cuiyan Pavilion. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
I think that when there was no Bliss Building in Chang'an, the capital of God, this triennial event was the most famous signboard on Yanliu Street in the entire Chang'an City, and it was also the foundation of the name of Cuiyan Pavilion standing at the peak of the Qinglou in all corners of the world.
Every three years, the gentry and aristocrats who come from all over the world gather here, some to pay homage to the rumored four beautiful women and the eight unique Mui Yan, some want to see the grand occasion of the top of the Qinglou once every three years, and some people are rushing to the new talents.
As everyone knows, Cuiyan Pavilion is clearly a seven-grade Yan Kui list, and the lowest level is talented, and most of these women come from the house of the fallen or guilty ministers, if you say that the appearance and temperament, it is naturally much stronger than ordinary women in the outside world, and each of them is a tender chick out of the water.
But there are countless talents, but not every one of them has the opportunity to make the list......
Just like Xiao Zhiyin said at the beginning, the hierarchy in the Qinglou is extremely strict, and the highest level is the red face as the owner of the building, followed by the four major beauty and Mei Yan's eight uniques, and so on.
The status of talented people seems to be the lowest, but in fact it is the most carefree period of time.
After that, it will be a severe test on the stage where a hundred flowers gather, and nearly half of the talented people will become street prostitutes of lower status, that is, women who stand at the door of the building and scratch their heads at passers-by, ruining most of their lives and dignity.
And those who are lucky will be photographed by the people who come at an extremely low price, or become wives, or become partial houses, or disappear after a short time.
After all, Cuiyan Pavilion is a business, and they will never tolerate any loss to feed a bunch of idlers to eat, and the valuable ones will naturally stay, and as for the worthless ones... Life and death!

"Wushuang! hurry up and help, the newly purchased tables and chairs are really a little unmoving!"
The news that Cuiyan Pavilion is going to hold a hundred flowers is already known to the world, and at this moment, it closed the door three days early to start the decoration and maintenance of the spacious lobby, and when all the maids were busy, Xiangling sent Mo Wushuang to help set up tables and chairs.
"Sister Xiangling, you said that on the days when a hundred flowers gather, how many people can sit in the third-floor lobby of this Cuiyan Pavilion?"
Wiping his sweat, Mo Wushuang looked back at the tables and chairs piled up into a hill and asked for a while, after all, they are all pure eight-foot solid wood tables and chairs, and the weight is definitely not light.
At this moment, Xiangling carefully wiped each table and chair one by one, and when she heard this, she raised her head and glanced left and right at the busy lobby, loosening her clothes and sweating.
"This year is different from the past, the Bliss Building in the south of the city has been destroyed, and all the customers will basically flock to the Cuiyan Pavilion, and it is estimated that the private seat should not be less than 800 people, plus the number of visitors in the vestibule, the middle courtyard, and the upper two floors, I am afraid that it will not be less than 6,000 people. ”
What kind of concept is 6,000 prostitutes, for example, Daming Palace has a city sandwiched on three sides, of which the forbidden army has a total of 28,000 people, and the number of people who come to Cuiyan Pavilion to see beauties alone can fill a sandwich city.
"My God, no wonder they all say that the ancient Qinglou is the first productive force to promote social development, and it is really difficult for these prostitutes who have nowhere to vent their bestial nature. ”
With a deep sigh, Mo Wushuang continued to turn around and move tables and chairs into the lobby, but when he kept dodging the new talents passing by, he didn't know why there were frequent sarcastic sounds in his ears.
Stopped and was stunned, and looked around, in the corner, behind the screen, and in the lobby, the other maids who were doing the work were also whispering, pointing and pointing while not caring about the feelings of the person concerned, this strange feeling made Mo Wushuang extremely uncomfortable.
"What are you doing in a daze? I haven't been doing physical work for long and I want to be lazy?"
Xiangling saw that Mo Wushuang put down the table and chair in his hand, and immediately raised his voice to drink at his back, and only after waking up did he continue to move the table and chair to Xiangling's side.
"Sister Xiangling, what do you say these people are talking about in private? Looking at their eyes is a little creepy. ”
After all, Xiangling is from the past, although she has not stayed in the social circle of the maids because of some things during this time, but at this moment, she has already made it clear seven or eight points.
"Wangcai!
It was the guard that Mo Wushuang was familiar with, and when he saw a reluctant two-step sprint, he came to Xiangling's side and nodded, "Sister Xiangling, is there something wrong?"
"What are these little girls discussing in private?"
Wangcai also glanced around when he heard this, but he couldn't stand Xiangling's threatening gaze, so he had to give in.
"I heard that this gathering of flowers can be very lively, from the ministers of the state to the sons of the family, each of them is a famous person, do you say that these people can not be excited to whisper?"
"Especially I heard that Zhou Chang, the county prince who came all the way, specially prepared a batch of silver taels, and wanted to redeem your young lady to live a rich life, you should be happy?"
Hearing the name Zhou Chang, Xiangling's expression was obviously in a trance, and then the afterglow skimmed towards Wangcai, and the corners of her mouth set off a cold arc.
"Do you want to fool me? Do these little girls look at me at any point? If you still want to eat in the future, you'd better tell me honestly. ”
Now that the words were spoken, Wangcai had to sigh deeply, and then raised his chin towards Mo Wushuang beside him.
"Alas, it's not that the Wushuang girl annoyed Xiao Zhiyin, I heard that I just went to the old mother's room a few days ago, and the people who came and went faintly heard the big voice shouting the name of the Wushuang girl, why do you say these people are gloating at her?"
As soon as he heard this, a fire ignited in Mo Wushuang's heart again, and before Wangcai could say the next words, he didn't know that Xiao Zhiyin was walking with four or five talented people not far behind him.
"What do you mean? Let me listen to it too?"
Wangcai's clothes were instantly soaked in cold sweat, where did he dare to say a little bad about Xiao Zhiyin at this moment, so he had to take advantage of the fact that the target was not himself and quickly ran away.
"Wushuang!" Xiangling knew that Mo Wushuang was annoyed, and immediately stopped in front of him and saluted Xiao Zhiyin.
"Hehe, the stinky girl is still grumpy, looking at your teeth and claws, it seems like you're going to swallow me!"
"It's just that! It's the day when a hundred flowers are gathering in front of us, and this bosom friend is not in the mood to fight with you here, not to mention that I came to you today because I have a good thing to tell you. ”
Saying that, Xiao Zhiyin took out a rosewood brand from his arms, which was impressively engraved with the word "Wushuang", which was obviously Mo Wushuang's flower name.
"Here you go! Seeing that the day is coming, if it weren't for my old mother's persuasion, just with your earlier attitude towards me, I really want you to stay in the backyard as a coolie for the rest of your life. ”
"It's just that your fate is good, the landlord takes a fancy to you, the old mother takes a fancy to you, and even that Li Huyuan is loyal to you. ”
"But don't be too proud, there is a sentence I want to remind you, a hundred flowers are quite cruel, with your talent and temper, I am afraid of ...... Huh!"
Speaking of this, Xiao Zhiyin turned around and left with the rest of the talented people who were constantly mocking, but the meaning was obvious when he was gone.
"Wushuang, have you practiced the talent you prepared earlier?"
Xiangling stared at Xiao Zhiyin's back as he left wantonly, and asked Mo Wushuang in a low voice.
"Don't worry, it's all right!"
"That's strange, why do I feel that Xiao Zhiyin's words have another meaning?" As she spoke, a sharp glint flashed in Xiangling's eyes.
