The first floor of Yunxiang Courtyard is quite lively, there are many literati and ink writers, businessmen and rich gentry, and rich children come and go, and the whole hall is bustling, people come and go, showing a prosperous business scene.

Song Ting picked a table and sat down, without saying a word or looking at anyone, just sitting like that, eating his sugar gourd slowly and methodically. After eating until there was only the last string left, he hesitated, held it in his hand and looked at it for a long time, but he was not willing to take a bite.

A stage was set up at the staircase of the hall, and the red carpet was spread, and a pair of girls dressed in red and green performed songs and dances on the stage, waving their feather sleeves lightly and scratching their heads. A few people who came with Lu Bonian were already itching, and they couldn't help but hug some girls who passed by, flirting and scolding, which was extremely charming.

"This son, will you let Yinchun play with you?" The moment Song Ting decided to take the last string of sugar gourds, a fairly beautiful girl sat directly on his lap.

A strong fragrance came to his nose, and Song Ting was really caught off guard. The girl named "Yinchun", two soft thighs pressed his legs solidly, which made almost any man irresistible, not to mention, her hand was still playing with the orchid fingers, and her mouth spit out bursts of fragrance, charming eyes like silk, coquettish to the bone.

Song Ting is also a man, so it is inevitable that he will react, but the moment the Yinchun girl sat on his lap, she threw his sugar gourd aside, which made him very angry.

Song Ting stood up, pushed the Yinchun girl aside, picked up his string of sugar gourds, and held them in his hands very preciously.

"Stinky scholar, so uninteresting......"

The silver spring girl stomped her feet, pursed her red lips, and walked away scolding.

Looking at the distant Yinchun girl, Song Ting touched his shy empty bag, stared at the sugar gourd in his hand, and swallowed his saliva......

Song Ting didn't notice it, but this scene between him and Yinchun was targeted by a beautiful woman wearing a crescent white dress on the second floor.

That beautiful woman is Hua Yingying's good sister, surnamed Bai, named Qiuyan, and also a Qingqi person from Yunxiang Courtyard, similar in age to Hua Yingying, but she has never seen her receive any guests, but I don't know why.

Bai Qiuyan didn't recognize Song Ting...... It's just that Fang Liu's mother came to Yingying's room and knocked on the door, telling Yingying which dignitaries she had received twenty taels of silver tonight, so that Yingying could arrange to meet her.

As the top Qingqi person of Yunxiang Academy, in fact, Hua Yingying has long passed the age of Qingqian people, but because she has always liked to engage in some literati elegant collections and the like, some literati gather in Yunxiangyuan to compete for talents, which makes her unique. In addition, she was born dignified and gorgeous, and there are countless talented people who spend a lot of money, just asking for a smile from the beauty. Gradually, the position of the top card of Yunxiang Courtyard has been secured, and there is an endless stream of people who come to the door every day, and Liu's mother will naturally not interfere with her preferences, let alone force her to sell herself.

Tonight is the elegant collection set by Hua Yingying, tonight is to compare poetry, at this moment there are a lot of literati in the hall on the first floor, ready to pick up the exam questions of Hua Yingying. If these literati are appreciated by Hua Yingying, they can not only get Hua Yingying's physical reward, but also be alone with her for an hour. This is the opportunity that many literati have dreamed of!

Bai Qiuyan knew that Hua Yingying didn't look down on these ordinary people, she was waiting for her crush "Wang Gongzi", the son of the "Wang Taiwei Family" who once threw a thousand taels of silver for her, just to see her.

Now in this Yunxiang Courtyard, Hua Yingying is a golden signboard, and she can't go out casually to meet guests, but she is concerned about whether Wang Gongzi has arrived, so she has to let Bai Qiuyan go out to check it.

In fact, there is no need to check at all, every time Wang Gongzi comes to Yunxiang Courtyard, there will be people in the courtyard shouting "Wang Gongzi has arrived", but Hua Yingying, the youngest daughter's mentality, is so hypocritical. Bai Qiuyan had no choice but to go out for her to take a look.

Bai Qiuyan didn't see the arrival of Wang Gongzi, but saw the scene where Song Ting pushed Yinchun away, and instead treated the sugar gourd as a treasure.

Bai Qiuyan didn't have any special opinions about Song Ting, and she didn't think Song Ting was anything strange, after all, in this land of fireworks and willow lanes, she had seen a lot of hypocrites who pretended to be unruly.

But this ordinary scholar made her can't help but look at it twice, not that she didn't think he was good-looking, she just wanted to see what he would do in the next moment.

At this moment, a loud and long shout sounded from someone in the courtyard: "Wang Gongzi - to ——!"

This loud voice suppressed all the noise in the hall and made the crowd whisper.

"Who is this prince sacred?"

"It seems that he is from Jingshi, and his father is a ...... who is a big official."

"You don't know, he came for Hua Yingying, I heard that he wants to redeem Hua Yingying......"

"Redemption? Hua Yingying is now a cash cow, can Mother Liu agree? ”

"I don't know about this, but last time, Wang Gongzi threw a thousand taels, but just to see Yingying's side, which I saw with my own eyes."

“……”

In the midst of the discussion, a middle-aged man in his thirties, wearing a round-necked brocade robe, a black head, a wide forehead, a high nose, a round face, and a little fat, led four entourages and stepped into the door of Yunxiangyuan.

Mother Liu immediately greeted her, and smiled diligently: "Girls! Who's coming? ”

Suddenly, seven or eight girls rushed over, one by one, "Wang Gongzi", and their voices were extremely sweet and glutinous. The "prince of the king" smiled and said, "There are rewards!" The entourage immediately grabbed a handful of silver tickets and threw them indiscriminately, and when those girls saw the money, they immediately bent down to grab it, including Yinchun.

This move of "Prince Wang" made all the other men in the brothel staggered, but it attracted the applause of the girls.

"Prince Wang is so handsome!"

"Wang Gongzi is so generous!"

“……”

Lu Bonian couldn't stand it anymore, slapped the folding fan on the table, glanced at Song Ting on the side, and snorted angrily: "It's not like this to spend money!" Who is he? ”

Song Ting spread his hands: "You ask me, how do I know?"

Lu Bonian said indignantly: "He won't be here to steal the limelight, right?" Will he also participate in tonight's poetry meeting? ”

Song Ting took a sip of tea and said very calmly: "I don't care about this, anyway, it's a bet between the two of us, if anyone can get the appreciation of the top card of Yunxiang Courtyard, even if he wins." Don't go back. ”

"I'm too lazy to tell you." Lu Bonian glanced at Song Ting disdainfully, and then whispered a few words to a Xiucai named Song Tianbao who came with him.

Song Tianbao nodded while listening, and after listening to Lu Bonian's whisper, he suddenly left from Yunxiang Courtyard.

At this time, Liu's mother happened to say to "Wang Gongzi": "The poetry meeting held by Ying Ying is about to start, just wait for you, Wang Gongzi."

Lu Bonian heard Mother Liu's words from a distance, and said with a displeased face: "Hmph, I didn't expect to kill a prince in the middle of the road......

At this time, the singing and dancing on the stage at the stairs of the hall stopped, and the entire Yunxiang Courtyard fell silent for a moment, as if the air was about to condense.

There was a creak, and on the second floor, the door of a room in a high-class private room was opened, and a gorgeous woman came out.

"Flowers! Flowers! Some men with worms in their brains waved their arms and shouted, lest their voices lag behind.

"Yingying!" Even Lu Bonian stood up excitedly.

Hua Yingying smiled, this smile was obviously aimed at "Wang Gongzi", but some self-inflicted men thought it was aimed at themselves, and immediately became restless, their faces were red, and their shouts became louder and louder.

"Everyone," Hua Yingying lightly opened her red lips, and as soon as she spoke, the following became quiet, "Tonight's beautiful day, everyone rarely gathers in Yunxiang Courtyard...... As you all know, Jiuniang usually likes to deal with literati and scholars the most, so I hope you will have a good time holding this small poetry meeting tonight. ”

As soon as Hua Yingying finished speaking, some of the literati below couldn't hold back the urge to show their talents, and shouted: "Yingying, hurry up and solve the question!"

Hearing everyone shouting questions, Hua Yingying suddenly turned around and went back to the private room, and everyone felt wonderful, why did she go back to the room again?

After Hua Yingying entered the private room, she quickly walked through the bead curtain, sat on the bed, and held her chest to gasp: "Qiu Yan, I didn't say anything wrong in that paragraph just now, right?"

Bai Qiuyan smiled and said, "You won't see Wang Gongzi who can't even speak well, right?"

Hua Yingying glanced at Bai Qiuyan and said coquettishly: "You Nizi...... Isn't it a roundworm in someone's stomach? ”

Bai Qiuyan smiled and said: "I don't dare to be a roundworm, I look at you, you are a nymphomaniac......

"Oops, oops", a burst of coquettish groans, Bai Qiuyan glanced at her tender wrist, and glared at Hua Yingying angrily: "Are you a tiger?" How do you bite someone......"

"Who bit you? Obviously just pinched. ”

"Ho, you admit to pinching me."

"Okay, don't make trouble, you give me the exam questions quickly."

"What questions? Oh! You mean poetry exams...... I wrote it yesterday, and I'll give it to you. ”

Bai Qiuyan rummaged on the bed, but she didn't find it, she couldn't help but be a little anxious, and said, "I obviously wrote it on paper, I forgot what the exam question was."

Hua Yingying looked stunned: "How can you forget?" They're all waiting, what should they do? ”

Bai Qiuyan paced around the room and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, I'll think of another ......"

At this moment, Dan heard a crackling knock on the window, as if a sharp sword pierced the window and forced into the room, and then, there was a splash of water.

The spring rain is coming, and it is a shower.

Bai Qiuyan suddenly stopped, and a flash of inspiration appeared in her mind: "There is!"
