The climate in the south is relatively hot, and even in October, the heat is still unbearable during the day, and it is only at the end of October that the climate slowly cools. At this time, Jinling is breezy and the climate is suitable, and it is the most comfortable time of the year, and the annual Oiran Festival begins at this time.

On this day, the Drunken Immortal Building can be described as a gathering of celebrities that is difficult to find, the platform near the water is the first to get the moon, Zhu Cijiong led Zheng Sen to occupy a seat early, even if they are frequent visitors, the shopkeeper only opened a table for them, no way, at this time of year, the Drunken Immortal Building is overcrowded, and it is already a big face to occupy a seat on the second floor, and directly giving a table seat is already the limit that the shopkeeper can do.

Zhu Cijiong doesn't care, he also deliberately chose the most marginal table, anyway, he didn't come to see the beauties, to be precise, he came to see the local tyrants in Jiangnan, and when these local tyrants finished performing, it would be his turn to perform.

As night fell, the Drunken Immortal Building became more and more lively, the first floor was already crowded, and the second floor was also full, even the tables were full of guards and entourage, and rows of human walls surrounded each table on the second floor like a box.

Zhu Cijiong's table is also sitting with Zheng Sen, Qin Mingyue, Luo Yangxing and others, as for the old scholar or something, it's just a showman, it's good to let him stand next to him, but everyone here is a member of the imperial court!

At the time of the unitary, the Oiran Conference kicked off on time, and a pretentious middle-aged scribe shook his head on the stage and introduced it for a long time, the meat play finally began, only to see the middle-aged scribe howl excitedly: "The following is our first Oiran candidate, the proud disciple of Xu Fo, the winner of the Oiran in the twenty-eighth year of Wanli, surnamed Liu Mingyin, the flower name is like this, what is so, this is taken from the Song Dynasty great poet Xin Qiji's "He Bridegroom": I see how charming Qingshan is, and I expect Qingshan to see me should be like this." So how charming is Liu Ru is girl, please wait and see, below, please Liu Ru is girl debut! ”

Zhu Cijiong was stunned directly after hearing Liu Ruyi's name, how old is Liu Ru at this time, thirteen years old? Fourteen? Not so exaggerated!

He only knew that Liu Ru finally married Qian Qianyi, but he didn't know how this Liu Ru was the head of Qin Huai Bayan, in fact, this Liu Ru made his debut this year, and two years later he married a champion surnamed Zhou as a concubine, and he married Qian Qianyi after more than ten years of exile.

Legend has it that this Zhou Zhuangyuan was also a cabinet scholar in his early years, but he was too old to marry Liu Ru is less than two years ago, Liu Ru was driven out of the Zhou Mansion and had a love affair with the famous genius Li Shiwen, Song Zhengyu, Chen Zilong and others, and finally married the then cabinet scholar, the Ministry of Rites Qian Qianyi.

A courtesan can charm two scholars and several talented people in a row, which shows how outstanding Liu Ru's appearance is, although she is only thirteen or fourteen years old now, but she has already fallen into a graceful and graceful manner, I feel pity. I saw her sitting elegantly on the stage with her hands stroking the pipa, and singing the current song in a crisp and immature voice, that look, that figure, and that voice almost fascinated everyone in the Drunken Immortal Building.

After a song, the applause suddenly sounded, and the sound almost overturned the drunken immortal building, and the flower basket with Liu Ru's name in front of the stage was quickly piled up, which made Zhu Cijiong stunned. That flower is not cheap, a finger-sized flannel saffron costs ten taels of silver, a fist-sized rag saffron costs a hundred taels of silver, and that full basket costs at least ten thousand taels of silver!

At this time, Zheng Sen saw that none of the people at the table sent flowers, and he couldn't help but feel a little lonely, and he commented like a little adult: "Well, although it is not as beautiful as Sister Mingyue, it can be regarded as a rare beauty, or we will send him a few big red flowers." ”

Zhu Cijiong rolled his eyes and said disdainfully: "I'm going to send you, little color embryo." ”

When Zheng Sen heard this, he pouted and argued: "When did I get colored, I finally participated in an Oiran conference, I have to send a few flowers, it's boring to just look at it." ”

At this time, Qin Mingyue's mother's illness was committed again, she touched Zheng Sen's head and comforted: "The little squirrel is right, this Liu Ru is a girl is really good, what's wrong with us sending her a few flowers?" ”

The other people sitting there were silent, joking, this is the emperor, it is estimated that there are only two people in the world who dare to talk back to him, and others will never dare, that is the crime of bullying the king.

Zhu Cijiong was speechless, I really don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are, a few flowers are hundreds of taels, equivalent to tens of thousands of yuan, just for the sake of meaning! He will never understand the world of local tyrants, perhaps in the eyes of Zheng Sen, the heir of the first local tyrant of the Ming Dynasty, silver is no different from sand.

Now it is two to one, Zheng Sen has an absolute advantage, and Zhu Cijiong has to grab a piece of pastry to gag his mouth so as not to be embarrassed.

Seeing that he had won, Zheng Sen shouted happily: "Go, send ten flowers to Liu Ru is girl, big one." ”

......

The Oiran Conference lasted for two hours, and Liu Ru finally won the championship with an absolute advantage, after all, she was the head of Qin Huai Bayan behind, and Chen Yuanyuan really no one could compare to her.

The Oiran has been chosen, is this Oiran meeting over? Of course not, there is also the most important part, and that is bidding.

Needless to say, everyone understands what this Oiran is for.

The local tyrants on the second floor are not here to choose the oiran, most of them are here to buy the oiran, even if they can't buy the first place, the second to the tenth place is quite good. What do you want to do? Then there is only a bid, with the total price of the safflower in the basket as the base price, everyone can increase the price at will, as long as everyone is pressed down, this oiran is yours.

So, the vigorous bidding activity began, and Zhu Cijiong saw that the time was almost up, so he couldn't help jumping down from the chair and asked excitedly, "Are you ready?" ”

Luo Yangxing, Cao Huachun and the others hurriedly got up and said together: "It's all ready." ”

Zhu Cijiong rubbed his hands and said eagerly: "Then let's start." ”

Luo Yangxing, Cao Huachun and others hurriedly glanced at their cronies, and three or four people in the escort team immediately hurriedly ran downstairs.

Zheng Sen looked at them curiously, and asked innocently: "Third brother, do you also like Liu Ru is girl?" Why don't I buy it for you! ”

Zhu Cijiong fainted when he heard the wrong words, and went up to him with a burst of chestnuts on his head, and scolded with a smile: "What kind of mess do you think about in your little head all day." ”

Isn't it not, why are you still beating people, Zheng Sen looked at Qin Mingyue aggrievedly, as if he was complaining to her.

Seeing this, Qin Mingyue hurriedly hugged him in his arms and comforted him.

Zheng Sen poked his head out of Qin Mingyue's arms and asked reluctantly, "Then what did you ask them to go down for?" ”

When Zhu Cijiong heard this, he said mysteriously: "Didn't you ask me who my father was two days ago?" You'll find out in a moment. ”

Zheng Sen continued to ask childishly, "Oh, is your father coming soon?" Are you telling them to meet their father? ”

"Uh......" Zhu Cijiong's face was full of black lines, and he was speechless.
