Tang Xiaoxiao went back to bring her cousin over, and the rest of the people waited in the hall.

In the corner, a woman turned her head to look at her companion and asked, "I have a cousin, why have I never heard of her before?" ”

The woman was also at a loss, shook her head, and said, "I don't know, it may be a distant relative, it's normal that we haven't heard of it." ”

On the other side, a woman named Zhang Simin looked suspicious, looked at Wu Wenting, and asked, "You say, will she not come?" ”

Wu Wenting shook her head and said, "No." ”

She understands that Tang Xiaoyao is not her character, she escapes from the battle, and she does not dare to fight.

But she knows better that she doesn't have the ability to write poems and lyrics, dance and ink.

Tonight, unless she calls the first talented girl, she can't change the outcome of losing at all.

And even if you like to come in person, the end may not be.

She had read Xue Yun's poem just now, and the level was still above her usual works, and now there was not much time left, even if she was the first talented woman in Lingzhou, it was not easy to make a song that surpassed Xue Yun in such a short period of time.

She really couldn't imagine that Tang Yaoyao could rely on what to turn the tables on tonight, relying on her distant cousin who had just arrived in Lingzhou?

As she thought of this, footsteps could already be heard outside the hall.

Tang Yaoyao and a beautiful woman walked in from outside.

The woman had a silk scarf tied around her neck, her appearance was beautiful, and her figure was extremely tall, Tang Yaoyao's figure had made her envious for a long time, and the woman who walked in was much taller than her.

Of course, as a woman, Wu Wenting feels that being too tall is not all a good thing, although she doesn't want to admit it, but for women, Tang Xiaoyao's figure is really just right, an increase of one point is tall, and a decrease of one point is short......

"This is your cousin......"

"I've never seen it before......"

"Tell us a referral ......"

Seeing someone coming over, Tang Yaoyao said with a smile: "This is my cousin, Li Qing, who just came from the capital......"

Tang Ning smiled and nodded lightly to everyone.

He was wearing Tang Yaoyao's skirt, which was actually a little small, but fortunately, the skirt was long enough to walk slowly, so as not to show his shoes, he just smiled, and there was not much expression on his face, so that it was not easy to be exposed.

"Hello Miss Li......"

"Miss Li is so beautiful......"

"Why doesn't Miss Li speak, everyone is sisters, don't be shy......"

……

Tang Yaoyao hurriedly explained: "It's not that she doesn't speak, her cousin can't speak since she was born......"

"Ah, how can it be so ......" After the women were surprised, their expressions turned into deep regret, and when they looked at Tang Ning's eyes, they were also extremely sympathetic.

Born so beautiful, but unable to speak, how can God be so ruthless......

Tang Yaoyao looked at Wu Wenting and said, "There is one less person on our side tonight, plus my cousin, there are exactly five people, it's okay, right?" ”

The rules of tonight's poetry meeting are not that everyone has to make a poem, but in a group of several people, Xue Yun is in a group with Wu Wenting, and one of her words is enough.

Wu Wenting hesitated for a moment, and soon nodded with a smile: "Of course you can." ”

"Cousin, let's go sit down." Tang Xiaoyao took Tang Ning's wrist and walked towards a table in the corner.

Wu Wenting and the others sat back in their positions, glanced at the corner, and then withdrew their gaze.

It was less than a quarter of an hour before the agreed time, and she didn't believe that they could fill in a good poem in such a short time.

Tang Xiaoxiao can't do it, her cousin named Li Qing can't do it, even if she likes it!

In the corner, Tang Xiaoyao let Tang Ning sit in the dark and whispered: "It's almost too late, are you okay?" ”

Tang Ning spread out a piece of paper on the table, lifted the pen, thought for a moment, and put down the pen.

On the other side, Xue Yun and Wu Wenting naturally noticed this scene.

Xue Yun frowned and said in surprise: "Could it be that she filled in the words in such a short period of time?" ”

Wu Wenting smiled and said disapprerovingly: "Even if you fill in the words, you can't compare to Sister Xue......"

Xue Yun also wanted to laugh, but the smile froze on her face.

For some reason, she always had a bad feeling, as if she had experienced it somewhere......

In the corner, Downing had already put down his pen.

The font he used was hairpin, which was a very popular font among women, and he still retained some kind of muscle memory of this body, and it was not too difficult for him to change the handwriting.

Before Tang Yaoyao could ask in a hurry, Wu Wenting got up and walked over, and said with a smile: "The time is almost up, and they have all finished filling in the words, Sister Yaoyao, it's up to you......"

Tang Yaoyao folded the piece of paper and said, "We're all right." ”

Wu Wenting looked at Tang Ning, and a smile appeared on her face again, "Since it has been written, then take it over and let everyone taste it......"

"It's so boring...... Tang Yaoyao shook his head and said, "Otherwise, how about we gamble?" ”

Wu Wenting was stunned and asked, "How to bet?" ”

"It's a bet on which one you think is better." Tang Yaoyao looked at her and said, "If you win, I will lose you two thousand taels of silver, and if we win, you will lose to me two thousand taels." ”

Tang Ning glanced at Tang Yaoyao, is this the first cut and then the play, or the empty glove white wolf?

Wu Wenting hesitated, two thousand taels is not a big amount for either the Tang family or the Wu family, but this kind of gambling is ......

Tang Yaoyao looked at her and asked, "What, are you afraid of losing?" ”

In front of the public, her words have already reached this point, Wu Wenting can't fight if she doesn't fight, she smiled, nodded and said: "Bet on it, those who lose are not allowed to rely on it." ”

Tang Xiaoyao walked over and put the paper on the front table, and someone opened it for circulation.

She walked back in, sat down next to Downing, and asked, "Can it be done?" ”

If Li Qingzhao can't do it, no one will do it. Tang Ning looked at her and raised his eyebrows, he knew that Tang Xiaoyao understood what he meant.

Tang Yaoyao waved his hand and said, "Oh, isn't this different, anyway, the silver promised to you is indispensable......"

Tangning already understood that the daughter of a merchant could not be underestimated.

Don't look at Tang Yaoyao's stupid white sweet on weekdays, no scheming, harmless to humans and animals, but in fact, she is also a ghost in her heart, tonight, she not only deceived herself in women's clothing, but also earned a thousand taels for nothing......

Tang Ning retracted his previous evaluation of her losers, with a wife like this, she has the skill of an empty glove white wolf, and her family must be prosperous......

Tang Yaoyao has been paying attention to the movements over there.

When they were tasting the poems just now, the discussion stopped being enthusiastic, some talking and laughing, which was completely different from the current expressions.

She touched Tang Ning with her shoulder and asked in a low voice, "Why don't they talk anymore?" ”

……

"A Cut of Plums" is one of Li Qingzhao's most famous works.

At the time of writing this sentence, she had just been newly married, but she was facing a parting from her husband.

The method of expressing lovesickness of the first talented woman through the ages is of course different from that of ordinary women, the emotions are sincere and unconventional, the style is fresh, and the artistic conception is extremely beautiful......

"There is no way to eliminate this situation, only to frown, but to the heart", is a well-known sentence through the ages.

As the pinnacle of Li Qingzhao's work, this que ci has a very high achievement in literature, and countless people in later generations have given it high praise......

Even Tang Ning himself felt that it was a bit too bullying to take out this poem on top of such a small poetry meeting......

"There is no way to eliminate this situation, so I frowned, but I ...... in my heart" Xue Yun repeated these words in his mouth, his eyes looked at the corner, and after his gaze stayed on Tang Ning for a moment, he turned to leave.

Wu Wenting's face was a little pale, she had some literary literacy, so she understood more clearly that this time, she had no way to fight, Tang Xiaoyao moved a big mountain, which was in front of them, and they couldn't climb it in their lives.

Her gaze looked to the corner as well.

It doesn't matter when Tang Yaoyao has such a cousin, whether she is Tang Yaoyao's cousin or not, as long as she is on Tang Yaoyao's side, they will lose.

What's more, they look like sisters, not like cousins, but more like sisters.

Because they are all the same tall and the same ------.

Around Wu Wenting, the eyes of the rest of the people were different.

There was amazement, jealousy, sympathy and exclamation, envy and reverence, and that remote and dark corner soon became a place where everyone's eyes gathered.
