Chapter 484: Another Village
As night fell, Mankado became lively, and the dignitaries and celebrities who came to participate in the Oiran Conference arrived one after another, and Mankado was crowded and brightly lit. =≤≈
Zi Ning looked at the entrance of the room with a gloomy expression, and Liu Hongmei did not appear until this time, which made her feel extremely disappointed and sad in her heart.
Come to think of it, how can the Yandao Yamen be so easy to deal with? She can already imagine Liu Hongmei's desolation and helplessness when she begged her grandfather to tell her grandmother.
Compared to Zi Ning, Zi Shuang looks refreshed, and now there is less and less time left for Zi Ning, it seems that Zi Ning is going to be a spectator of the Oiran Conference this time, witnessing her performance tonight.
"Hold your breath, don't be nervous, treat it as if it were just a normal performance. Read Chinese again. Hongxia walked over with a smile and told Zishuang, she was a person who came over, so she naturally knew Zishuang's excitement now.
At this moment, Hongxia decided that Liu Hongmei was powerless about Zining's father and brother's affairs, and everything she was doing now was in vain, just a useless struggle.
"Hmm!" Zishuang sighed slightly when she heard this, and exhaled deeply to try to stabilize her excited mood, she knew that if she wanted to do well in the evening competition, she had to maintain a good state of mind.
Seeing this, the look on Zi Ning's face suddenly became even darker, of course she wanted to perform on stage, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in her life, but she couldn't do it, not to mention worrying about the safety of her father and brother, she was in a chaotic mood now, and she couldn't concentrate at all, and the master's tricks could not be missed.
In other words, in terms of the current state alone, Zishuang is indeed better than her, and it should be Zishuang who fights, after all, the Drunken Moon Pavilion still has to be faced, if she makes a mistake on stage, then the outside world will laugh at the Drunken Moon Pavilion.
"Boss Liu went to find the Salt Patrol Imperial History, your father's brother's case happens to be under the control of the Salt Patrol Imperial History, and he will not sit idly by." Seeing Zining's sad expression, Yang Li'er couldn't help but step forward and comfort.
"Patrol the history of the salt court?" Hongxia, who was chatting with Zishuang to relieve her psychological pressure, couldn't help but be slightly stunned when she heard this, and then looked at Yang Li'er quite unexpectedly, she thought that Liu Hongmei went to find the officials of the Yandao Yamen, but she didn't expect to find that it was Lord Salt Patrol Yushi.
As Yang Li'er said, all matters in salt affairs are under the control of the Salt Patrol Imperial History, and the Salt Patrol Imperial History is indeed the person who can decide the fate of Zining's father and brother.
"Humph!"
Subsequently, the corners of Hongxia's mouth showed a sneer of disdain, although the Salt Patrol Imperial History can indeed manage Zining's father's and brother's case, but the dignified Salt Patrol Imperial History must be hugged by the people of the Salt Road Yamen now, where is it so good? Liu Hongmei has ** can't even see anyone.
Even if Liu Hongmei was lucky enough to meet the Lord of the Salt Patrol Imperial History, but the case of Zining's father and brother involved the "salt lord", how could the Salt Patrol Imperial History be easily released without verification, do you want the Salt Patrol Imperial History to go to the Yandao Yamen to try the case now?
Therefore, Hongxia is not worried now, thinking that Yang Li'er is just comforting Zi Ning, and Zishuang is decided at tonight's Oiran Conference.
Li Hongyu looked up at the sky outside the window, and after he calculated the time, Liu Hongmei should come with Zining's father and brother soon, but he didn't know if he could catch up with the determination of the list.
If Liu Hongmei can't come in time, then Zi Ning also has a chance, Liu Hongmei will definitely let Zi Shuang "suddenly get sick", and then let Zi Ning take the stage on her behalf, anyway, both of them represent the Drunken Moon Pavilion, and there is nothing wrong with it in terms of rules, but this will definitely attract a lot of criticism.
"Hongxia, have you decided who will take the stage?" A moment later, the middle-aged man with the roster from before came in again and said to Hongxia in a deep voice, "Now that the other Qingqi people have decided, I will send you." ”
Before the Oiran Festival begins, visitors to the show are given a list of the performers, their affiliations, and the repertoire, so they must be written in advance.
"Purple Frost! Our Drunken Moon Tower sent out Purple Frost. Hearing this, Hongxia showed a smug look at the corner of her mouth, glanced at the middle-aged maid who looked a little flustered, and replied loudly.
"Is it Purple Frost?" The middle-aged man looked at the middle-aged maid when he heard this, he knew that the middle-aged maid represented Liu Hongmei, and now that Liu Hongmei was not so able to make the final decision, it was the middle-aged maid.
The middle-aged maid's face was cloudy, and she couldn't make up her mind for a while, of course she didn't want Zishuang to replace Zining, but now she didn't have anything to do, so her mood was very complicated.
"It's getting too late, get the seal." Seeing this, Hongxia picked up the pen and wrote Zishuang's name on the roster, and then opened her mouth to urge the middle-aged maid, she knew that the middle-aged maid had no choice but to choose Zishuang, which was also Liu Hongmei's explanation before leaving.
Although there were ten thousand reluctances in her heart, the middle-aged maid still took out the seal of the Drunken Moon Pavilion that she kept, and walked towards the middle-aged man with heavy steps, as long as she stamped the seal in her hand on the roster, then Zishuang would replace Zi Ning to participate in the Oiran Conference at night.
Seeing this, Zishuang's eyes suddenly flashed with a glimmer of light, and her cheeks showed an excited look, while Zi Ning closed her eyes in pain, she knew that she had failed Liu Hongmei's expectations, and she was also sorry for the people in the Drunken Moon Pavilion who accompanied her in practicing singing and dancing.
"Wait!" Seeing that the middle-aged maid was about to drop the seal in her hand on the roster, Li Hongyu suddenly shouted to her, which made the eyes of everyone at the scene suddenly fall on him.
"Zi Ning, do you know that there is a trick in the art of war called 'put to death and then live', when facing an enemy whose strength is stronger than his own, when he forces himself to have no way out, he will defeat the enemy because the whole army is determined to survive."
Under the suspicious gaze of the people at the scene, Li Hongyu walked up to Zi Ning, looked at her and said in a deep voice, "There is also a saying in chess that 'one of the gods' is a hand, and in the face of an unfavorable situation, a good move can often turn things around. ”
"Zining, the Oiran Conference is attracting the attention of 10,000 people, and Kui is the champion of the women's middle school, once you win the championship, you will be able to get acquainted with high-ranking officials and magnates, and outsiders will be afraid of you because of this."
Staring at Zi Ning, who opened his eyes and looked at him in amazement, Li Hongyu said meaningfully, "This is 'everything you gain, everything you lose', you should know what to do." ”
Seeing that Li Hongyu said such inexplicable words to Zi Ning coldly, Zishuang and the others had suspicious looks on their faces, not knowing what he was talking about.
And Hongxia changed her face, she naturally knew what Li Hongyu was talking about, and she also understood what Li Hongyu meant, Li Hongyu wanted Zi Ning to die and come back to life, and seize the leader of tonight's Oiran Conference, at that time she will make friends with many dignitaries and nobles, so that the people of Yandao Yamen will not dare to touch her father and brother easily.
Zi Ning was slightly stunned when she heard this, she was in a hurry and forgot that she actually had a chance, as long as she won the championship tonight or even won the top three rankings, then the people of the Yandao Yamen would be afraid of her.
"Sir, I decided to compete, as Mr. said, my fate is in my own hands, and I have to change my fate by my own strength."
Then, Zi Ning bit her lip, got up and bowed to Li Hongyu, and solemnly thanked Li Hongyu, as Li Hongyu said before, if she fell, she would no longer be able to support her family, so she had to fight hard.
Li Hongyu showed a relieved smile on his face when he heard this, it seemed that Zi Ning was not willing to give up the Oiran Conference in his heart, otherwise he would not have made this decision.
"Zi Ning is in a bad condition now, if she represents the Drunken Moon Pavilion, the Drunken Moon Pavilion will definitely lose."
Hongxia's face became a little ugly, but she didn't expect Li Hongyu's words to arouse Zi Ning's determination to participate in the competition, and she hurriedly spoke up to object, in order to avoid accidents, Zi Ning had to be prevented from taking the stage.
"Hongxia, I think Zi Ning is very good now, Zi Ning is the Qing Qi person who participated in our Drunken Moon Pavilion, and it was because of his physical discomfort that Zi Shuang was an alternative, and now that Zi Ning is already well, then it should be Zi Ning who participates!"
The middle-aged maid suddenly sneered when she heard this, looked at Hongxia coldly and said, since Zining is going to compete, then she won't be cheap Hongxia.
"Ridiculous, you are taking the interests of the Drunken Moon Pavilion as a child's play!"
Hongxia's face changed, knowing that the middle-aged maid would not give her the seal, so she stretched out her hand and pointed at her, and said to the maid beside her, "Grab the seal, you can't let her damage the interests of the Drunken Moon Pavilion!" ”
"Who of you dares!" The middle-aged maid was naturally not to be outdone, and glared coldly at the maid beside Hongxia, "Do you know what kind of punishment will be imposed on the following offenders?" ”
Hearing this, the maids beside Hongxia couldn't help but look at each other, no one dared to act rashly, as if they were very afraid of the middle-aged maid, and the middle-aged maid was in charge of punishment in the Drunken Moon Pavilion, which naturally made the maids jealous.
"Useless waste!"
Hongxia couldn't help but scold when she saw this, she didn't expect those maids to drop the chain at the critical moment, looking at the middle-aged maid's sturdy figure, she dispelled the idea of grabbing it herself, it was obvious that she was not the opponent of the middle-aged maid, after all, the middle-aged maid didn't need to maintain her figure like her, so she ate more and had more strength.
The middle-aged maid glanced at Hongxia disdainfully, picked up a pen and wrote Zi Ning's name on the roster, and then stamped the seal of Drunken Moon Pavilion on the name, which meant that Zi Ning officially became a participating Qingqi person of Drunken Moon Pavilion.
Zishuang never expected this kind of thing to happen, she didn't react for a while, she just sat there and watched the middle-aged maid stamp the seal, she didn't expect the opportunity to participate in the Oiran conference to slip away from her in front of her anyway.
After the middle-aged maid was sealed, the middle-aged man in charge of the roster immediately got up and left, he didn't want to get involved in the internal strife of the Drunken Moon Pavilion.
"If our Drunken Moon Pavilion was defeated at the Oiran Conference this time, then you should wait to apologize to the owner!" After the middle-aged man left, Hongxia said to the middle-aged maid with a gloomy expression, and then said to Zishuang who was sitting there, "Go!" ”
As she spoke, Hongxia walked away with an expressionless face, she had no reason to stay now, and she could only bring humiliation on herself if she stayed any longer.
Zishuang came back to her senses, glanced at Zi Ning with a sad expression, and quickly followed behind Hongxia, the expression on her face was extremely lonely and sad.
Zi Ning noticed the hatred and anger in Zishuang's eyes, thinking that she had snatched the opportunity that belonged to Zishuang, the corners of her mouth squirmed and wanted to say something, but in the end she couldn't say it, what can she say to Zishuang now?
With the departure of Hongxia and the others, the originally crowded room suddenly became spacious, and the middle-aged maid came to Zining's side and comforted her, trying to calm her state of mind.
Li Hongyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, because Zi Ning had made a choice that made him feel gratified, it seemed that he didn't have to bother with the list in the future.
"Shuang'er, although you lost the opportunity to participate in the Oiran Conference this time, the Drunken Moon Pavilion will be your world in the future."
While walking, Hongxia stopped, and said to Zishuang who was following behind her with a gloomy face, "Zi Ning has not yet achieved the state of being happy and angry, so she is bound to be affected by her father and brother in prison, and she will definitely be defeated, and the Drunken Moon Pavilion is ours!" ”
"Prison?" Zishuang was slightly stunned when she heard this, and she didn't understand what Hongxia was talking about.
However, Hongxia didn't mean to explain to Zishuang, and then turned around and left, which made Zishuang only hide this question in her heart, and it was obvious that Hongxia didn't want to mention it too much.
