Because this is a grand event organized in the name of Diaosuo, it is also the nominal organizer of Diaosuo, and now since Diaosuo is not coming, then Diaosuo's disciple is Duan Xinde who will entertain everyone as the host. Of course, whether it is the appearance fee of the six Oiran or the rental fee of this Xiaoxiang Fang, it is borne by Cao Yi, but the main cost is still on the Xiaoxiang Fang.

Cao Yi, Yu Youwei and Jin'er got off the carriage and walked to the painting boat docked at the dock, and after reporting their names, there were maids to greet them on the painting boat, but this painting boat is quite large, although it is not as good as a merchant ship, but it is similar to the modern Huangpu River and the big yacht on the Qiantang River. Before entering the inner hall, I heard the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras, a woman singing, and from time to time I could hear the sound of dense footsteps, as if she was still singing and dancing.

"It's the Songling girl from Xunfang Pavilion who is performing." The maid who greeted the guide led the way in front of her, while whispering that ordinary literati are very obsessed with the six major oirans, and even very fanatical, but this talented man who she has never heard of the name seems to have no change in the expression on her face, but after a sigh, there is no reaction,

This made the maid who led the way also curious, first of all, he had not heard of the word "Cao Yi" before, so he subconsciously thought that it was a little-known scholar in Yangzhou, because in Yangzhou City, all the young talents who are a little well-known, although she does not say that she can recognize them all, but at least the names are still familiar, at least he has never heard this name before.

That's why she thinks that Cao Yi may still be just the son and brother of a rich and noble family, because judging from the dress, yes, there are two beautiful girls, and I don't know if it's a maid or a wife, but no matter what, she brought her female dependents to participate in the grand event that the six major oirans participated, as if this son was still the first one.

After turning a porch, I arrived in the hall in the middle of the painting boat, at this time there was a slender figure, the facial features were extremely exquisite, and the temperament felt that the lively and agile girl was singing and dancing at a glance, because Cao Yi was bringing Yu Youwei and Jin'er in at this time, so everyone turned their eyes to their side, even the dancing Song Lingling was affected, and also faced Cao Yi by dancing the rotating posture, and in a short period of time and Cao Yi had eye contact, eyebrows and eyes, it seemed to be a little curious, However, he immediately aimed his eyes at Yu Youwei and Jin'er on Cao Yi's side.

This son, who has never met before and looks good-looking, is it possible that the legendary Jiangning's first genius Cao Yi is not successful, and the two girls next to him should be a maid standing a little behind from the perspective of dress and front and back position, so this girl who is a little too beautiful should be a rich lady, but it is also very rare for a rich lady to appear in the banquet attended by the six major oirans.

In addition to Song Lingling watching Le Cao Yi and Yu Youwei on the side, Xin Yini, Huai Die, Yun Shao, and Fu Wan'er among the other six Oiran also had the same actions and eyes. Only Min Yue nodded at Cao Yi and Yu Youwei.

Cao Yi took Yu Youwei and Jin'er to bypass Song Lingling in the performance, and walked towards Lu Xiaofeng, Wang Honghua, Duan Xinde and others who had already arrived. Because Song Lingling was performing at this time, in respect and etiquette, everyone else just nodded slightly, which was regarded as a greeting, and then the formal greeting was still after Song Lingling's performance was over.

Of course, Song Lingling didn't stop there, she was still spinning and jumping over there, dancing and singing while her breath was also very stable, although Cao Yi couldn't tell the specific doorway inside, but she didn't listen to it well, her breath was steady, and she could still taste it if she danced well or not, and just by looking at the approving look in Yu Youwei's eyes around her, you could see that this girl named Song Lingling did have a very strong strength.

However, according to Cao Yi's previous inquiries and understanding, this Song Lingling of Xunfang Pavilion is itself a member of Yangzhou's six arts, and is known for dance. Looking at it today, sure enough, among the six major Oiran in Yangzhou, each has its own talent, and the level is so high that it can indeed be called a skill.

If Song Lingling's dancing skills are the top Cao Yi has seen in this era, then at least in singing, it is far less good than Yu Youwei, Yu Youwei gives Cao Yi the feeling that whether it is technology, or the emotion and soul given to the voice and singing tone when singing, it is very outstanding, and it can even be called a singer.

In the days when Cao Yi was injured and recuperated in the Zhizhou Mansion, Yu Youwei often sang to Cao Yi, at that time Cao Yi felt that her singing had reached the realm of perfection, and her singing skills had reached the realm of returning to the basics, and she did not show off her skills too much, it was such a pure voice, and the inner artistic conception of each song was completely sung. The voice that goes straight to the depths of the heart can make Cao Yi's whole person immersed in it, and enter the country with a voice, even Cao Yi sometimes makes her sing modern songs with bad taste, Yu Youwei can sing the style Cao Yi wants after becoming familiar with the melody in a short time, and even better than the original singing.

It seems that Yu Youwei is born to understand every song very thoroughly, and then when she sings, she can interpret the joys, sorrows, sorrows and souls behind each song vividly and exquisitely, so that people can directly talk to the soul of this song, maybe the dialogue is not accurate, the two souls blend with each other, and it seems to be a more appropriate description to resonate, which also reminds Cao Yi of the sentence before the crossing, "In the field of singing, technology must lose in front of the soul"......

At this time, Song Lingling was dressed in a Qingluo skirt, with wide sleeves fluttering, and thousands of green silks were not tied together, but danced with her rotating posture, smearing in the air like a landscape painting splashed with ink. Then the music became faster and faster, Song Lingling had already stopped singing, and devoted herself to the dance, her dancing movements became faster and faster, and when the music reached the highest point, it stopped abruptly, and Song Lingling also ended her dance movements with a beautiful and elegant movement, motionless to maintain the action at the end just now.

The scene was surprisingly quiet at first, and then everyone reacted, applauded and praised, Cao Yi and Yu Youwei also stood up and gently clapped their palms in appreciation, and then Song Lingling recovered, bowing to everyone, the voice was soft and glutinous when she didn't sing, but it was also very good, just now dancing and singing, because the consumption was quite large, engaged in Song Lingling panting slightly, and her voice sounded more pleasant.

Later, Duan Xinde, as the host, introduced everyone present to each other, mainly between Cao Yi, Yu Youwei and the six Oiran, Min Yue knew Cao Yi and Yu Youwei, and Xin Yini had only seen Cao Yi, Yu Youwei didn't know each other, and the remaining four didn't know either of them. When Duan Xinde introduced here, he only said that Cao Yi was the first talent in Jiangning, and Yu Youwei was Cao Yi's junior sister, and he introduced the names to each other, and he didn't say much else.

The six Oiran here are naturally polite and courteous to Cao Yi, after all, the reputation of Jiangning's No. 1 talent is too loud, I didn't expect that when I look at it now, it is such a young teenager, as for Yu Youwei, everyone calls it "Fish Girl" with a sense of distance, and the others are not good to say anything, after all, they usually only deal with men, and there are very few people who deal with women.

Only Min Yue showed unusual enthusiasm and called "Sister Youwei!" Yu Youwei naturally returned the favor, acting gentle and elegant, dignified and atmospheric, as if she was really a very educated official lady. However, Minyue's abnormal performance made the other Oiran frequently look sideways. They all speculated about the true identity of Yu Youwei, although Duan Xinde had already introduced that she was the junior sister of Cao Yi, the first talent in Jiangning, but they always felt that Yu Youwei's eyes looking at them were a little weird.

If it's other women, it's not that they haven't seen it, and the eyes that look at them are either curious, after all, women rarely see famous artists and the like, or they are the kind of people who worship them, worship their skills and talents, and this is also there. But Yu Youwei's eyes when she looked at them were the kind of people who were already very familiar with them, and when she looked at them, she unconsciously tasted them in her heart. Of course, this is just their personal feelings, sometimes it is illusory and cannot be real. But this time, it's that kind of real feeling, that's what I feel in my heart, and I'm very sure.
