Chapter Eighty-Seven: Pomp and Circumstance

Both sides of the road leading to the Linzhou River were almost filled with crowds, and the windows of the nearby restaurants and teahouses were also wide open, and countless heads poked out of the windows and looked around.

"It's coming, it's coming!"

Two or three children ran from the end of the road, shouting loudly, and slipped into the crowd.

Then, I only heard the sound of two gongs and drums in unison, and I saw two small men turning out from the corner, one carrying a gong, while knocking, while walking in the direction of the Linzhou River.

Behind the small house, there are also four columns of teams, the middle two columns are all young and delicate maids, the same cyan clothes, with a smile on their faces, each holding a flower in their hands, some are peonies, some are begonias, and some are white lotuses...... There is a wide variety.

The left and right columns were all young boys, neatly dressed, with solemn faces, and their eyes were full of vigilance and vigilance, as if they were iron walls, guarding the ranks to prevent anyone from disturbing them.

After the team walked for a while, they gradually saw the scene behind.

"Look! It's the Oiran that's coming! ”

A man in the crowd shouted.

An immediate commotion arose in the crowd.

Everyone, you push me, I pull yours, crowded and crowded, and they all lead their necks in anticipation.

From a distance, I saw that behind the group of girls in Tsing Yi, a sedan chair was carried by four sedan chair men on their shoulders and walked over with the team, the four walls of the sedan chair were removed, looking extremely simple, but the four sedan chair beams supported by it have exquisite carvings, holding the umbrella-shaped sedan car roof, and the thin cicada light veil on all sides was put down and swayed in the wind.

In the sedan chair, there are cushions and pillows, a few small tea cups, bright colors, and it looks very pleasing to the eye.

And in the sedan chair, there is a woman sitting in the shadow, with a slender body, sitting there half-leaning, with her left hand on the right hand on the cushion on one side, combing her hair in a high bun, through the slightly swaying light veil, you can vaguely see the white skin Shengxue, the eyebrows are elegant, wearing a plain dress, looking elegant as a fairy, out of reach.

"Look! It's Yin Shuang of Yiren Building in Yizhou! Unexpectedly, she was the first to appear, and it seems that she is the most likely person to get the name of the chief Oiran in Jiangnan in this Oiran Contest. ”

This time, the order of appearance is based on the fame of the Oiran.

"Tsk, the rumors of the iceberg beauty are really well deserved!"

"I just don't know, how does it compare to this iceberg beauty in our Linzhou Zhaoliu Pavilion?"

The second sedan chair also came over at this time, followed by Yin Shuang, unlike the previous sedan chair with hazy cover, this sedan chair has no light veil, Han Yue sat in it, a deep purple dress made people look blurry and deep, and the catchy color matching suddenly turned people's eyes from Yin Shuang in front to her body, up, is a thin white neck, and beautiful and moving hibiscus makeup, black cloud hair hangs down on the side of the shoulder, with two purple ribbons pinned to it, in addition, there are no other superfluous embellishments, with one hand supporting his head and half pillowing on the cushion, his beautiful eyes are half-open, and the whole person is a little lazy, but with a little coldness.

Gradually, the third and fourth sedan chairs also came, however, everyone forgot to look at it as if they had lost their souls, but followed the figure of Hanyue intently, lingering.

"Sure enough, it's the cold moon of Zhaoliu Pavilion, which will always make people's eyes shine!"

Someone in the crowd exclaimed.

"However, you can see that she is dressed today, it is not the same as before."

"It's a little different, look at what she's wearing today, I've never seen a dress like that. Somehow, when she dresses up like this, it's even more exciting. This woman is really a stunner. ”

"She's always been a stunner! It's a pity that I am very proud and do not accept customers. ”

"A Qinglou woman, I don't know where she came from, if someone wants her, can she still resist?"

"Shhhh Watch your tongue, this woman is not easy to mess with, there is someone behind her! ”

Hanyue listened to the chatter in the middle of the crowd, her eyes moved slightly, and the corners of her lips hooked up a disdainful smile, as if mocking those who spoke.

She raised her hand slightly, and the wide sleeves of her coat shook off like that, and at first glance, it looked like stars twinkling in the vast night, making people dizzy.

She looked at the vivid change, frowned slightly, and secretly wondered how Jin Xin came up with this idea, and how she could make such a dress.

She's never seen it before.

On the shore, one of the largest flower boats docked, there are three floors, on the deck in front of the first floor is a square platform covered with a red carpet, and the steps are full of tables and chairs, and before you know it, they are already full of people, all of them are nobles in brocade clothes, sitting there with different looks, and behind them are standing with their respective entourage, and the deck in front of the second floor is also full of tables and chairs, but the people who sit and stand are all women, holding screens to block the surroundings, only the side facing the stage is open, so that it is convenient to watch.

When the Oiran took their respective people and got on the flower boat, the flower boat slowly sailed away.

Next to it, all kinds of small flower boats also followed.

Jin Xin was wearing women's clothes today, and she was on the deck on the second floor at this time.

She took a few steps forward, leaning against the railing and watching the stage below as she was busy preparing, while the oirans were blocked by the screen on all sides, and no one showed their faces, and most of the boys and brothers present could no longer hold back, and kept watching, as if desperately trying to find a gap to see the beauty.

Jin Xin looked at it and said, "Oiran Competition, whose idea is this?" ”

Ziqin replied on the side: "I don't know, our Jiangnan region has always been known as a paradise on earth, and it has the title of the hometown of smoke and willows, which will be held every five years The Oiran Contest has been held for a long time, and it has not been so large-scale before, but it has been circulated for a long time, and its fame has also grown, and now it has become a great prosperity for us. ”

Jin Xin listened and muttered, "Isn't this similar to a modern draft?" I don't know how much money I can make if I do it well, but I have to figure out who is behind it......"

"Draft, what is the draft? Draft girl? ”

Ziqin heard her muttering and was confused.

Jin Xin smiled and didn't explain, but glanced at the boys below and asked, "Do you know which one is Cui Qi?" ”

Jin Xin came this time to see the grand occasion, and the second was to meet this Cui Qi.

Ziqin knew about it early in the morning, so she secretly inquired about it a long time ago, and when she saw Jin Xin asking, she immediately pointed to one place and said, "Miss, it is the son in the blue brocade dress at the third table from the right in the first row." ”
