223 [Beginning of the Conference]
At the end of this day, Lin Zhiqi suddenly felt that maybe she really thought of the emperor Lao'er too obscenely, maybe, people really just came to enjoy singing and dancing and cultivating festivals? If his temperance is still there.
Now that she has come to Yizhou, of course Lin Zhiqi can't really just watch singing and dancing every day, and she will get tired of watching it for a long time, not to mention that as the official conference is approaching, the real Oiran from all over the country is closing their doors and concentrating on practicing.
So, Lin Zhiqi took advantage of this gap to visit all the scenic spots around Jianping City.
As soon as I came back after going out for a few days, a huge platform was erected by the river in Jianping City. The stage was divided into many small platforms, and this was the place where the Oiran from all over the country performed.
After more than half a month of foreshadowing, the object that can enter this stage has basically been decided. It is said that there were as many as 32 people, and after two days of screening, only four were selected to compete for the "world's first oiran". In other words, these four may be lucky enough to see the holy face, as for whether anything will happen in the future, it is unknown, after all, this time the Oiran is still dominated by the Qing people.
On the day of the semi-finals, that night, Lin Zhiqi was dressed as a teenager again, and in addition to the usual winter flowers, double peaches and Hongyi, Lychee and the new little maid Xiangcheng also came to watch the excitement together.
Seeing this large group of people, Rong Ziyu frowned, opened his mouth, and remained silent with a bitter face.
I took the carriage to the periphery of the big platform, and the riverbank was already crowded with people.
"Don't run around, it's not good if you get lost." Lin Zhiqi said first. What she got was the eyes that everyone looked at her in unison.
You're the one who knows how to run around! This is the common sentiment of everyone.
Lin Zhiqi pretended not to understand, and as soon as she jumped out of the carriage, she pointed to the entrance and said, "If you get lost, everyone will gather at the entrance!" ”
Her worries are not exaggerated. Although there are many people who come to see the excitement, only the rich and noble people are really willing to spend a silver or two to go inside to watch the performance. Ordinary people stood outside and listened with their ears propped up, but unfortunately, they could not hear anything except the noisy human voices.
followed Rong Ziqi and Rong Ziyu. In addition to the staff sent by General Chen, it was Wei Xing with two guards. Speaking of the number of people, it is actually the same as Lin Zhiqi and her party.
The way is cleared by the guards. It took them a little time to squeeze to the entrance, only to see a large plate of silk flowers on the table at the entrance.
"What is this for?" Lin Zhiqi pointed to the silk flower and asked.
The receptionist smiled and said, "Everyone who enters the venue can get a flower, and when they go in, they like which Oiran they like." And he gave her the flowers. After tomorrow, the top four Oiran will be counted to compete for the 'first place in the world'. ”
"Huh? Isn't it better to bring as many people as possible? Eiko asked.
Without waiting for the receptionist to explain, Rong Ziyu said: "Naturally, there are also one or two silver and a flower in it!" Get on board! Don't grind around here. ”
Wei Xing immediately stepped forward and gave the silver, but the flowers of their group were all taken by Lin Zhiqi and the maids.
"Who do you want to vote for, and then spend it yourself!" Lin Zhiqi said with a smile.
Rong Ziyu was speechless, now this is also my money! However, he naturally doesn't care about the money of these flowers. He knew this rule beforehand, so. There are still a few hundred taels of silver tickets stuffed into his waist.
The surrounding area is covered by a curtain, and the scope of the curtain is not only the platform, but also two teahouses on the side.
There are five small stages, and the Oiran takes turns to perform. Because at the same time, the choice of this natural audience has generally determined the ownership of their flowers.
Among them, the platform facing the two teahouses is more sought-after and eye-catching. Because, most of the nobles who are tired of shopping will rest upstairs, and the flowers in the hands of these nobles are the big heads.
I saw the number of ten, twenty, or even one hundred or two hundred flowers coming from the teahouse from time to time. Lin Zhiqi couldn't help but think with malice.
"All this money is used to buy flowers, but after the four leaders are elected, it is useless, and the organizer will not make a profit."
Hearing this, the staff member who knew Lin Zhiqi's family background, Wei Xing and the others couldn't help but think that this Miss Cousin was worthy of being the daughter of a merchant, and everything was about money.
The maids think that the young lady is really powerful, and they can see it.
Rong Ziyu only thought that Lin Zhiqi was going to be funny again, but Rong Ziqi touched his chin and joined the topic, "Wouldn't it be an equal share with Oiran?" Without their contributions, where would they get so much money? ”
Lin Zhiqi thought for a while, "That's right! However, it is unlikely that it will be evenly divided, at most three or seven points. ”
"Well, Oiran has made a big contribution, so it should be a little more." Eiko period said.
Lin Zhiqi shook her head, "No, it's the organizer seven." ”
"Why?"
"Because it's a profiteer!"
"Oh, that makes sense!"
Everyone: "......"
"Hearing your words, I don't know if the Xue family will cry." A smiling voice rang out abruptly.
Lin Zhiqi and Rong Ziqi turned their heads and said in unison: "Little Liuzi." ”
The man immediately slipped and almost threw himself on the ground, "I said, can you two not speak in unison." ”
"Oh!" Rongzi said, "Little Liuzi." ”
Lin Zhiqi said again: "Little Liuzi." ”
Qi Liu rolled his eyes and decided to ignore the two for the time being, turning his head to look at Rong Ziyu, who was a little restrained because he recognized him.
"You're guessing you're going to join in the fun." Qi Liu said with a very familiar look.
It was not the first time that Rong Ziyu had dealt with him, and he quickly relaxed, but he still used honorifics, "I didn't expect to meet you here." After speaking, he suddenly thought that the person in front of him should not be wandering around like before at this time, and at this moment, the other party should be with the big man!
So, the mood that had just relaxed suddenly froze, "You didn't come alone, did you?" ”
"Do you want me to come alone, or not alone?" Qi Liu said with a smile.
Rong Ziyu was stuck, but Rong Ziqi said: "I see that you are here by yourself, there are so many people here." ”
Rong Ziyu thought about it when he heard Rong Ziqi's words, and yes, there are a lot of fish and dragons here, so it is naturally impossible to bring that big man here.
However, as soon as he breathed a sigh of relief, he saw a guard-like figure walking through the crowd towards Qi Liu.
"Sixth son, the master said, since he is a friend of the son, please go up to meet his old man."
"Sir?" It can't be like that! (To be continued.) )
