At the beginning of October, a large boat went straight down the Yangtze River, and from time to time there was a woman's yellow warbler-like laughter and slapstick and sweet singing, which attracted people on the passing boats along the way to look around. Tian Lai Xiao said

The people on this ship were naturally Li Hongyu and his entourage, who had gone south to Shanghai County, and because of the great success of several performances in Yangzhou City, they were warmly welcomed by Yangzhou dignitaries and peddlers, so everyone was in a very happy mood.

Compared with classical songs and dances, opera is more fascinating, bringing people into the plot of the story, and is regarded as an elegant thing by dignitaries.

Using these performances, Li Hongyu and Hongxia and others worked together to improve the deficiencies in the performance, after all, everyone, including Li Hongyu, was experiencing opera for the first time, and it was impossible to achieve perfection at the beginning, and it was necessary to grope forward and strive to perfect it.

As for Feng Suzhen, the protagonist of "The Female Concubine", after Li Hongyu's discussion with Yang Li'er and Hongxia, it was finally decided to be Youlan.

Originally, after Li Hongyu watched Youlan's performance at the Oiran Conference, he thought that her singing and dancing would be slightly inferior to Zining, otherwise she would not have given Zining a chance.

But after this period of time, Li Hongyu was surprised to see that Youlan's singing and dancing skills had improved very quickly under Hongxia's tutelage, and she had been on a par with Zining.

In this way, Zining lost her advantage over Youlan, so she unfortunately lost in the competition for the role of "Feng Suzhen", and then asked for the second place to play the princess.

Although Hongxia is well-informed and experienced, she is still surprised by Youlan's flying progress, she has never met a girl like Youlan before, and she can greatly improve her singing and dancing skills in a short period of time.

After all, the Kiyo people who can participate in the Oiran tournament are already very, very good, and it is very difficult to improve the level of skills again, and the only way to gradually accumulate experience after years of baptism is to completely subvert this concept and show strong strength.

After witnessing Youlan's amazing progress, Hongxia couldn't help but feel a burst of regret in her heart, and sighed that the providence made people, if Youlan had met a better art master before, then Zining would not have a chance at all in the Oiran Conference, and a girl as talented as Youlan was rare to see.

For Youlan to play the role of "Feng Suzhen", Zi Ning and Du Juan and others are convinced, Youlan's strength is indeed outstanding, and she is like "Empty Valley Youlan" among them.

It is also the stunning costume of Youlan that makes the performance of "The Female Concubine" more perfect and attracts the attention of those spectators at the scene.

Since they have lived together for more than a month, Youlan and Zining and the others have become familiar with each other, and gradually diluted the concept of factions, which makes everyone get along very happily and harmoniously together.

Compared with the life of the Qinglou, the life of the suburban manor is more relaxed and comfortable, you don't have to force your face to smile and please the guests, and you don't have to worry about being beaten and punished for the slightest mistake, you can chase the ideals in your heart and explore and move forward in the field of music and rhythm.

Therefore, for more than a month, Zi Ning, Du Juan and others gradually showed a smile from their hearts, and Li Hongyu provided them with shelter like a towering tree.

In fact, if it weren't for Li Hongyu in front, then the Qing people, including Zining, would have been unable to avoid being "***" by the powerful and completely reduced to men's playthings.

Zi Ning and the others have now accepted Ran Xingrang's invitation to perform to Li Hongyu and the officials of the Customs Department, even if those high-ranking officials and magnates in Jiangnan don't look down on Ran Xingrang's nominal concubine, but the opponent Li Hongyu who holds great power is still very jealous, and no one dares to disturb Zi Ning and others at this time, otherwise it will refute Li Hongyu's face, and the consequences will be unpredictable.

Li Hongyu discussed with Yang Li'er and Hongxia in the cabin about what would happen after arriving in Shanghai County, after all, Youlan and the others were going to perform for the dignified ministers of the dynasty and Zuo Chunfang University scholars this time, so they could not be negligent in the slightest.

For this kind of performance in other places, Hongxia is naturally familiar with it, so Li Hongyu and Yang Li'er became listeners, listening to Hongxia's arrangement, nodding their heads from time to time, Hongxia's arrangement was in good order, and Li Hongyu couldn't find fault with it.

Although Hongxia has been accustomed to seeing strong winds and waves, and has performed songs and dances for many court dignitaries, it is the first time for Li Hongyu to face Li Hongyu, a Tuogu auxiliary minister who can decide the fate of the Ming Dynasty and has the power of life and death for middle and low-level officials in Jiangnan, so it is inevitable to feel a little nervous.

Yang Li'er's mood is more complicated, she has always had prejudice against Li Hongyu in her heart, but this time she is going to perform for Li Hongyu, so she has a hundred reluctances in her heart, she has never been able to let go of Li Hongyu's arrest of her parents and brother last year, if it weren't for the help of "Li Sheng", she would have almost died.

Compared with Hongxia and Yang Li'er, Li Hongyu's state of mind seems to be very peaceful, and for him, this trip to Shanghai County is just an inspection.

At this moment, no one could have imagined that this famous and talented man was a dignified scholar of Zuo Chunfang, and with the improvement of Li Hongyu's fame in the field of lyrics, calligraphy and painting, he would not be associated with the auxiliary ministers of the imperial court, which undoubtedly ensured his safety.

"Childe, Scholar Li is a teenager who became famous like Childe, and he must also be a high-minded and arrogant person, Childe must not be angry with him at that time, and tolerate everything in order to seek peace."

After discussing the resettlement matters of arriving in Shanghai County, Hongxia remembered something and couldn't help but comfort Li Hongyu, but she knew the meaning of the phrase "Wen Wu is the first, Wu Wu is the second", and she has witnessed the grievances and entanglements between many scribes, and is worried that Li Hongyu will offend Li Daxue.

"Scholar Li is good at governing the country and benefiting the people, and my son is good at lyrics, calligraphy and painting, entertaining the people, and the things we pay attention to are different, even if we want to have a dispute, we can't start."

Li Hongyu knew that Hongxia was worried that she had offended "Scholar Li", so he smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, this son will not argue with him because of government affairs, and as a dignified auxiliary minister, he will naturally not target this son for the sake of folk entertainment." ”

Hongxia immediately breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, in case Li Hongyu and Li Daxue didn't accept anyone and then "pinched each other", then there would be no need for Li Daxue to do it, and naturally someone would clean up Li Hongyu.

At the same time, in one of the rooms of the ship.

Youlan sat at the table in front of the window and stared at the scenery on the riverbank, her willow eyebrows frowning slightly, looking preoccupied.

"Miss, this is a godsend, I didn't expect us to go to Shanghai County so easily." The door opened, and Youlan's personal maid walked in, brought her a cup of tea, and said with a smile.

"Entering Shanghai County is only the first step, and we still have a lot to do." Youlan came back to her senses when she heard this, picked up the teacup and took a sip before saying lightly.

"Miss is the protagonist of "The Female Concubine", and at that time, Scholar Li's eyes will definitely be on Miss, Miss and Scholar Li are a model of talent and beauty, and they are a match made in heaven!"

The maid immediately laughed when she heard this, and said to Youlan excitedly, "Miss, you will be a scholar and a lady at that time!" ”

"Scholar Li can have today's high position, is it an idle person?"

Youlan was not as optimistic as the maid, and Liu Mei frowned slightly and said, "The Jiangnan Oiran Conference is a once-in-a-year event in Jiangnan, and it is a good opportunity to show your face, but Scholar Li didn't come, he is definitely not a lustful person, and it is not easy for us to get close to him." ”

"Even if Scholar Li is not lustful, he will never hate beauty, didn't the Book of Poetry say, 'Guan Guan Ju Dove, in the River Island, My Fair Lady, Gentleman is good', even the ancients knew to appreciate beauty, not to mention Scholar Li is a young man with ambitions."

The maid saw Youlan's worried look on her face, so she said with a smile, "As far as the maid knows, the more talented people like this are, the more they know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, and they will definitely be fascinated by the young lady." ”

"The more talented a person is, the more likely he is to be a gentleman, affectionate, and polite, this kind of person is more difficult to deal with!"

Hearing this, Youlan shook her head, looked up at the maid and asked, "Tell me, how is Gongzi Li to me?" ”

The maid was stunned, and then her face showed a helpless look, Li Hongyu was so unmoved by Youlan's beauty, and treated Youlan and Zining and others equally, she was simply Liu Xia Hui.

If Li Hongyu doesn't know how to appreciate beauty, this is unlikely, people who can write such beautiful lyrics must be emotionally delicate, is he the kind of nerd who doesn't understand amorous?

As a result, Li Hongyu can only be described as a "gentleman", who has been in the midst of a hundred flowers, and the leaves do not stick to his body, which is also an important reason why Zining and Du Juan and others are in awe of Li Hongyu, and they do not give preferential treatment to them because of the beauty of Youlan, and truly achieve the word "justice".

"Li Gongzi and Li Dashi are the same kind of people, this kind of young scholar who became famous is arrogant, behaves according to the words and behavior of a saint, and will not be greedy for beauty like others."

Seeing that the maid was silent, Youlan couldn't help but sigh secretly, "Alas, I hope this time will go well!" ”

Prior to this, Youlan, who thought highly of herself, originally thought that things would go well, but she didn't expect that things would become extremely tortuous at the beginning, first she accidentally lost the laurel of the Oiran, and then her beauty was invalid for Li Gongzi, which also meant that her proud appearance might be invalid for Li Daxue, and the complexity of her mood can be imagined.

"Miss, as the saying goes, men chase women across the mountain, women chase men as thin as yarn, no matter how gentleman Li is, he is also a man, as long as Miss has a heart, Scholar Li will definitely fall for Miss."

The maid saw that Youlan's mood was a little low, so she rolled her eyes and opened her mouth to comfort her, she didn't believe that there were fish in this world that didn't steal.

Youlan's eyebrows suddenly raised slightly when she heard this, in this case, wouldn't she want to give her arms to Scholar Li, she couldn't do such a shameful thing.

"Miss, Scholar Li is the pride of our Ming Dynasty, and Miss is a match made in heaven, I don't know how many women want to get close to Scholar Li, if Miss doesn't seize the opportunity, she will be cheaper than other women."

The maid knew that Youlan had scruples in her heart, so she persuaded in a low voice, although she didn't say it explicitly, but Youlan had competitors in front of her, Zining and Du Juan and other Qing people definitely wanted to get Li Hongyu's favor, if Youlan started late, she would be taken by others.

Youlan's face changed, she couldn't help biting her lip, her eyes were full of gloom and loss, she never thought that she would one day fall to the point of sacrificing hue, and the sadness and helplessness in her heart can be imagined.
