Chapter 34: Passing the Three Levels of Intelligence (I)
When a leaf falls, you know that the world is falling!
Since noon, there has been a drizzle in Luoyang City, dense and dense, smudged with golden all over the ground, making people's hearts a little wet, merchants stretch out a hand to pick up the rain outside the eaves, the silky and finely wound rain, this is not a big drop of big beating, but in a moment wet the whole palm, drip down along the fingertips, crystal clear, through the rain, the red dust outside the courtyard also looks colorful, particularly bizarre.

"Girl, it's time to get dressed, and the guests will be here in a moment." Green Sleeves reminded softly, but he kept taking out a set of purple skirts in his hand and placing them on the shelves on the side for merchants to wear.
Shang Shang turned his head, there was still a trace of confusion in his expression, his black eyes were round and big, and he looked at the green sleeves in a daze, as if he had seen something else through her.
"Girl, it's time to make up!" Greensleeves paused and said.
After discussing with Sister Yun in the morning, the merchant began to think about the question of several nobles, racked his brains to write a morning, and finally set three, I thought the matter was over, but after a while, I asked her to send a large stack of paper up, writing and drawing, I don't know what I'm doing, the green sleeves are not very literate, so I don't know what she's tossing, just obediently grinding ink on the side, the merchant has been writing for a long time, and it is estimated that there are more than a dozen pieces of paper before stopping the pen, carefully folding the paper, Put it in the dark compartment of the dressing table.
"Girl!" Greensleeves screamed again, picking up the comb on the dresser.
Shang Shang came back to his senses and smiled: "Dress up, drag it out any longer, Sister Yun should call for help!" After speaking, he walked to the dressing table and sat down, pulled the towel on the side and wiped his hands.
Green Sleeves picked up the comb, three times and two times to give her a simple partial bun, the merchant's head happened very well, black and long, soft and bright, against the candle flame there was some bright black brilliance flowing, like a fine silk satin, Green Sleeves likes to comb the merchant's hair the most, every time she holds her hair will "tsk" sound.
Green Sleeves stretched out a hand to open the makeup box on the dressing table, and the box was divided into three layers with various colored beads.
"Girl, let's see which one to use?" Green Sleeve took a twig and shook it on the merchant's head.
"That's it! Today's comb is biased, don't wear too many things, it looks heavy. The merchant took a flat-toothed comb and handed it to Green Sleeve, and let her insert it into her hair, and the southern beads at the handle of the comb were strung into a whole branch of peonies, blooming in the black hair, gorgeous and not ostentatious.
"Hmmm! It's still the girl who picks it well. Green sleeves don't have this vision, and the girl looks so good when she wears it! "Green sleeves will be careful with the flat comb is the merchant hair, lest it hurt her, and took a hairpin to pick a few strands of hair hanging on the sideburns, soft hair, with a delicate face, more and more businessmen Chu Chu moving, if not the faint greenness between the eyebrows and eyes, where can I see that it is a little girl who is only thirteen years old!
"Get me a pen." The merchant turned back to the green sleeves.
Green Sleeves was a little confused, but he still went to the desk outside and took a small pen that he hadn't used.
The merchant took the fine hair, opened a small package of cinnabar in the makeup box, picked a little and put it in a small bowl on the dressing table, poured some water, turned the cinnabar away, took the fine pen and dipped it, swept away the floating color on the edge of the bowl, moved the bronze mirror to the front, looked left and right, and drew a budding bud between the eyebrows with a fine pen, the blood-red cinnabar, dotted on the white face, just for a moment, the greenness between the eyebrows disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by a heavy charm, like a red mandala blooming in the night, and I wanted to be drunk when I saw it!
Under the service of the green sleeves, he changed into a purple dress, and the clothes flew up, as if he was wearing a heavy mask, and what appeared in front of everyone was no longer the fragile and fragile Shang Liyan, but a Luoyang Oiran who turned all beings upside down!
"Let's go!" The merchant smiled lightly at the green sleeves, indescribably sweet and bewitching.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Sister Yun specially opened a single courtyard for these eight posts to house a few men who could not be offended. Among these people, Wu Wang Li Ke's identity is the highest, as the emperor's three princes, he sat on a well-deserved upper position, but he sat down with the sons of two founding heroes, Cheng Huaimo, the son of Cheng Biting Jin, and Yu Chiying, the grandson of the Wei Chi family, these two are a pair of big shoulders and round waists, heroic and masculine appearance, but quite a father's style, sitting on the middle seat of Luoyang Mansion Li Qingyu and Luoyang Forbidden Army Commander Cao Daren, accompanied by the top three merchants in Luoyang City, the Liu family, the Du family and the Chengxi Lin family. The eight people in this courtyard can be said to include the most popular political, military, and business figures in Luoyang City.
Sister Yun wore a set of crimson skirts, and waited on the side with a smile on her face, and she was also a little cold sweat in her heart, but no one in this time could afford to offend! Why hasn't the merchant come yet?
Li Ke, who was sitting on the top seat, squinted slightly, his slightly bronzed face was expressionless, and he didn't seem interested in speaking, but Wei Chiying and Cheng Huaimo were world friends, and they wanted to vote, so they only squeezed into a table and ate side dishes, and they took care of themselves and drank a sip of the excitement, Li Qingyu and Cao Mengxiong were colleagues, but there were also some things to say, only the three big businessmen who were at the bottom of the group were all adults in the military and political circles, although they were people with a lot of money, but after all, they were civilians, and where could they make a mistake, so they had to drink and drink at the table tastelessly, I can't help but feel a little resentful in my heart: I knew this was the case, and I shouldn't have come today!
Everyone was thinking about it, and Sister Yun was already smiling so hard that her face was a little stiff, and she could only hear the sound of the ring outside the door, and Sister Yun was busy lifting the curtain to look, but was it not a businessman? At the moment, he breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and smiled: "It's considered to be here, but it has made a few masters wait for a long time!" ”
The merchant lifted the curtain and entered the house, standing in the hall and glanced at it slightly, it was Li Ke who sat on the top seat, so it must be the Cheng family and the Wei Chi family, for the descendants of these two legendary figures in Tang history, the merchant is still quite interested, and he couldn't help but look at it twice, as for the remaining few, except for Cao Mengxiong, they are all acquaintances, Lord Li and several big businessmen in the city have been here, and the merchants and a few people have a few faces.
Li Ke, who was sitting in the first place, squinted his eyes a little unhappily, and there was no trace of emotion in his dark pupils.
He had already seen the reaction of everyone in this room, from the moment the merchant came in, these men all looked like they were giving souls, Cheng Huaimo and Wei Chiying were slightly better, and the rest of them were almost drooling.
Thinking of this, I can't help but feel even more unhappy in my heart, and I don't know what magic power this enchanting woman has, which can make all the people in this room fascinated, and even I can't help but be bewitched by her, the blood-red cinnabar between her eyebrows, like a spell attracting him, the low bandeau reveals a snow-white crystal, he can imagine that when she unties this dress, her chest is full and firm, and the waist that is so thin as if it is about to be broken can dance so provocative and charming!
Gradually, Li Ke felt that the room was a little hot, and some fire flashed in his dark eyes, so he picked up the wine glass in his hand and drank it all, but he felt like a fire burning from his throat to his heart, blazing, and refused to extinguish it.
"The businessmen have said hello to the adults, the businessmen are late, and I hope you will bear with me!"
The bright voice of the merchant sounded in the room, waking up everyone's dream, and the few people who suddenly woke up looked at each other awkwardly, but saw the same embarrassment on the faces of the people opposite, and couldn't help but smile at each other, secretly admiring the beauty and charming style of the merchant in their hearts.
"Merchant girl, you are really late today, not to mention us, even the third prince has been waiting for you here for a long time! You've got to have an explanation! Li Qingyu was a little familiar with the businessman, so he teased him first, stroked his beard with one hand, and looked like he was watching a good show.
"Your lords are here today, the merchants are flattered, and they have been dressed up for a long time, but it makes you angry, why don't you punish the merchants with a glass of wine first, how about the guilt?" The merchant covered his sleeves and chuckled, and walked straight to sit down opposite Li Ke, this seat was reserved for her, because there were eight people, it was inappropriate for the merchant to sit next to any person, and the best way was to arrange a separate seat at the bottom, which was not only convenient for the merchant to perform, but also convenient for her to keep a distance from them, which was indeed a good way to kill two birds with one stone.
Signaling Green Sleeves to pour a glass of wine, the merchant picked it up with one hand, covered his lips with his hand, and drank it all, with a very bold attitude.
"Good! The merchant girl is so courageous! Cheng Huaimo applauded first, he was a bold person, he liked to go straight the most, and the least favorite was a person who was cowardly, and the businessman voted for him first.
"Not bad! The businesswoman is indeed so heroic, but this is not only a crime, but only a drink, but it is too insincere, right? Wei Chiying on the side had a little taste of narrowness on his white skin, and looked at the merchant with a smile.
"I don't know how the prince wants the merchant to drink? The merchant is just a woman, not strong enough to drink, if you drink again, a few adults will not be able to watch singing and dancing! Shang Shang chuckled and said, what a joke, even if she can drink it, it is not such a way to drink!
"Singing and dancing? It is indeed very attractive, and it is so difficult to invite a merchant girl, and we certainly don't want to miss this opportunity. Li Ke, who was sitting on the top position, opened his mouth lightly at this time, Mingli was praising the singing and dancing of the businessmen, but there was dissatisfaction in and out of the words.
Shang Shang's heart sank, and he said in his heart: A thousand careful, ten thousand careful, but these three princes still have the intention to provoke, this matter is not good!
"The three princes don't know, the businessman just got up this morning, there are magpies chirping in the branches, knowing that there must be happy events, sure enough, in less than a moment, there are eight stickers delivered at the same time, the businessmen are really happy, but the eight adults here are the parents of the businessmen, none of them can be lazy, the businessmen have no idea for a while, they can't go to this and not go to that one, isn't it to provoke a few adults to be unhappy?" The businessman looked aggrieved, his eyes were full of water, and he looked deeply embarrassed, and he saw that the few men present were half of the crisp, and they looked distressed.
"The businessman thought about it, but he had to think about this method, thinking that several adults were in love with the dancing skills of the businessman, so he took the liberty to invite several adults, and several adults were all officials in the same dynasty, or the old friends of the world, isn't this more lively to watch?"
"Yes! Oh, yes! The businesswoman is right! "The head of the Liu family on the side is already looking like his soul is not on his body at this time, where can he care that the third prince is here, and he echoed as if sleepwalking.
"Merchant girl! In Captain Chi Ying, if the businessman girl is willing, after watching the song and dance, can you talk to Mama Yun about the girl? Yu Chiying still looked smiling.
Li Ke's attitude just now made him very strange, he had never seen Li Ke care about this kind of thing, he had always been humble and polite, but he had never seen him compete for a singer, but I don't know why this businessman made him so out of shape, is it just her extraordinary beauty?
When Shang Wei Chi Ying said this, he suddenly "chuckled" in his heart: Is this about to start?
A long howl: Ask for a ticket!!!
