Chapter 486: Fierce Enemy

"Girl, Chunfeng Xuan is changing people at this time, it seems that the person who came is not good!"

After the maid who reported the news left, the middle-aged maid who was standing next to Zi Ning said to Liu Hongmei solemnly, in fact, if you don't have to do it, the Qinglou will not easily change people, unless something happens.

For example, like the Drunken Moon Pavilion, Zi Ning, who was originally going to participate in the Oiran Conference, had a major accident and had to be replaced by Zi Shuang.

This situation is the reason for the substitution of the Qinglou in most cases, and there is another situation, that is, a certain Qinglou has a more powerful Qingqi person, but it is hidden in advance, and it becomes a killer weapon to defeat the enemy, and he appears before the Oiran Conference.

Chunfeng Xuan's internal stability did not have serious infighting, so judging from the current situation, that Youlan is likely to be a killer feature of Chunfeng Xuan, wanting to win by surprise.

"You go and find out what the bottom of that orchid is." Liu Hongmei's brows frowned, and she said in a deep voice, so that the maid who sent the message before could be described as "beautiful as a fairy", indicating that the Youlan was outstanding, which is not a good thing, you must know that men like beauty.

The middle-aged maid bowed to Liu Hongmei when she heard this, and quickly went out to inquire about the details of that orchid, wanting to see how beautiful that orchid was.

Li Hongyu didn't expect that he would bite the gold halfway, which could make Liu Hongmei feel like a great enemy, presumably Liu Hongmei didn't get the information of that Youlan in advance, it seems that Chunfeng Xuan did a very good job of secrecy this time, and concealed the inquiry of other Qinglou.

The most nervous person on the scene was Zi Ning, the appearance of that Youlan gave her a lot of pressure, after all, a famous Qinglou like Chunfeng Xuan would definitely not change candidates easily, which meant that Youlan was definitely extraordinary.

"Spring Breeze Xuan!" At this time, Yang Li'er remembered something, and couldn't help but say to Li Hongyu, "If I'm not mistaken, that Youlan should be in front of Zining." ”

After Yang Li'er's reminder, Li Hongyu also remembered at this time that the sign drawn by Chunfeng Xuan was No. 19, which was just in front of the Drunken Moon Pavilion.

"The Empty Valley Orchid is dominant." Li Hongyu groaned for a moment when he heard this, and said to Yang Li'er with a smile, "It seems that Chunfeng Xuan is the leader of the Oiran Conference this time!" ”

"Humph!" Yang Li'er sneered when she heard this, and said quite unconvinced, "What's the use of just looking good, I don't know if I have real skills." ”

"Zining, just do your thing, don't care about others."

Li Hongyu smiled and didn't answer, turned to Zi Ning and said in a deep voice, "When we talk about Youlan here, presumably the people of Chunfeng Xuan are also talking about you, and regard you as Youlan's fierce rival, at this time, it depends on whose mentality is better." ”

"Sir, Zining understands." After listening to Li Hongyu's words, Zi Ning couldn't help but come back to her senses, and hurriedly said to Li Hongyu Yifu, looking much more relaxed.

As Li Hongyu said, among the Qingqi people who participated in the competition for the Oiran tonight, Zining was the target of everyone's competition, and she put a lot of pressure on the Qingqi people.

The reason is very simple, she has "Huguang Li Sheng" next to her, a talented man who is in the limelight, to help her write songs, and she has invisibly overwhelmed those Qing people.

Thinking of this, Zi Ning's mentality was much calmer, she may not be as good as Youlan of Chunfeng Xuan, but she has Li Hongyu by her side, which is incomparable to Youlan.

Seeing that Zi Ning's state of mind had become calm, Liu Hongmei couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, the most fearful thing before the war was panic, and Li Hongyu calmed Zi Ning's nervous emotions very well.

"Girl, the mouth of Chunfeng Xuan is very tight, and the room where Youlan is located is forbidden for anyone to enter." It didn't take long for the middle-aged maid to hurry back, reporting to Liu Hongmei with a somewhat anxious expression, feeling annoyed that she had not been able to find out about Youlan.

"It's okay, our Zining is not weaker than her, there is no need to care about her." Liu Hongmei frowned slightly when she heard this, and then pretended to be relaxed and said, she didn't want to put psychological pressure on Zining, if it was her, she would take strict confidentiality measures like Chunfeng Xuan.

The biggest effect of this kind of secrecy measure is to maintain the mystery of Youlan, and then invisibly put pressure on the opponent, which can be described as a psychological tactic.

"By the way, who are the adults here today?" Subsequently, in order to dilute the somewhat depressing atmosphere of the scene, Liu Hongmei Yufeng changed the topic and asked the middle-aged maid.

"Back girl, it's almost the same as in previous years, almost all the nobles of Nanjing Liubu Shangshu, Shilang and Nanjing City are here, but this year's most noble status is Ran Yuma, it seems that he wants to sit down." When the middle-aged maid heard this, she immediately replied, like this once-in-a-three event, Nanjing's magnates, who are only a stone's throw away from Yangzhou City, will naturally come to join in the fun.

Of course, Ran Xing Rang is Ran Xingrang, although the Ming Dynasty's horse has no power, but its status as the son-in-law of the Son of Heaven is not low, even if it is usually ignored, but the seat on the formal occasion is very high, after all, it represents the prestige of the Son of Heaven.

Besides, there is no doubt that Ran Xingrang belongs to the category that is favored by the emperor, otherwise he would not have come to Yangzhou to take charge of the Customs Department, which is equivalent to an eye sent by the Emperor of the Apocalypse to Jiangnan, so no one will provoke him because he is bored, and it is natural to sit down.

At each Oiran conference, how to rank the seats of those high-ranking officials and magnates is a difficult problem, some officials have similar qualifications, each has its own merits, and it is necessary to take a lot of effort to arrange the time, starting from the experience of stepping into the official career one by one, and finally can barely discharge a satisfactory result.

As for the seat, every Oiran conference will inevitably fight openly and secretly, after all, the identity and background of the high-ranking officials and magnates who come here are not simple, and naturally no one wants to be left behind.

This Oiran Conference was relatively simple, due to the existence of Ran Xingrang, the rest of the people gave up the competition for the seat, how can their qualifications be compared with the emperor's son-in-law?

"Scholar Li didn't come?" Liu Hongmei saw that the middle-aged maid did not mention Li Hongyu, and couldn't help but ask in surprise, you must know that the Oiran Conference is a big event in Jiangnan, and Li Hongyu should not miss it.

"According to the people from the Customs Department, Scholar Li was busy with official business, so he stayed in Shanghai County." The middle-aged maid nodded when she heard this, and then said with pity, "If Scholar Li comes, then it must be even more lively tonight." ”

"Scholar Li is dedicated to the public, which is really the blessing of my Ming Dynasty!" Liu Hongmei couldn't help but sigh in admiration when she heard this, it is very rare for an official like Li Hongyu to remain indifferent in the face of such a grand event as the Oiran Conference.

"Girl, they said that it was whimsical for Scholar Li to want to do business with overseas countries, and when did he see people from the government who would do business."

When the middle-aged maid heard this, she remembered something, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Girl, you said that it is not good for Scholar Li to stay in the capital to accompany the royal family, and let go of a comfortable life, but he has to do business with overseas countries, what does he think?" ”

"Maybe this is the reason why Scholar Li was able to become a scholar and auxiliary minister of Zuo Chunfang in just two years, what he does is to write about military affairs, which is not something that we can speculate about."

Liu Hongmei pondered for a moment, and then replied solemnly to the middle-aged maid, "If Daming has a few more parents like Scholar Li, then Zhongxing is just around the corner." ”

Listening to Liu Hongmei's words, Li Hongyu's face showed a look of surprise, it seems that Liu Hongmei really deserves to be a well-informed person, and can actually link overseas trade with military affairs, instead of thinking that he is not doing his job properly, or taking the opportunity to accumulate wealth and sell fame or something.

In fact, there is one of the most popular theories in the market, that is, Li Hongyu came to Jiangnan this time to monitor Jiangnan officialdom and contain the Donglin Party and the Zhejiang Party and other factions in the DPRK.

The so-called overseas trade is just a pretense, when have you seen people from the government doing business? And with such fanfare, it is clear that it is to hide people's eyes and ears.

After all, no one now believes that Li Hongyu, as a dignified scholar of Zuo Chunfang, would really go into business.

Of course, Liu Hongmei would never have thought that the "Li Gongzi" in front of her was the "Li Scholar" in her mouth, which can be said to have met a noble person by accident.

When Ran Xingrang led a group of high-ranking officials and magnates to arrive at Wanhuatang, the curtain of this Oiran Conference slowly opened, and twenty top Qinglou Qingqi people in Jiangnan will start a fierce and wonderful song and dance competition.

Li Hongyu and Yang Li'er went to see the excitement, and the venue of the Oiran Conference was set up in the square in front of a three-story attic in Wanhuatang, and a wooden platform was built in front of the attic, on which the people of the Qing Dynasty would demonstrate their skills.

The reason why the wooden platform was built directly opposite the attic is that the various rooms on the second and third floors of the attic facing the square will be excellent places to watch the song and dance performances, and they have long been booked out by dignitaries.

In addition, the left and right sides of the wooden table are full of tables and chairs for the guests who come to see the excitement to sit, and having a seat here means that the host is either rich or expensive.

Ran Xingrang, as the most honorable person in this Oiran Conference, naturally occupied the room in the middle of the second floor of the attic, which was facing the wooden platform and was the best place to watch.

As is customary, the best rooms and the best seats are reserved for the most distinguished person at the beginning of the Gangnam Oiran Convention.

Each room on the second and third floors of the attic has a wide balcony, where you can watch the singing and dancing of the people without delaying the moon viewing with tables and chairs.

The rules of the Gangnam Oiran Festival are very simple, each guest who can watch the competition on the spot will have three tickets, and the 20 participating Qing people will vote after the performance, and the top three votes will be the top three in the Oiran Meeting.

Of course, you can also vote for one Qingqi person in one go, which is allowed by the rules.

In fact, in the beginning, the selection method of the Jiangnan Oiran Conference was to see which Qingqi person could be invested more money by the guests, and the one with the most money was the Oiran.

However, this practice made the Jiangnan Oiran Conference full of copper stench, despised by scholars, and reduced to a game for merchants, and its reputation naturally did not get much better.

Later, the Jiangnan Oiran Conference was renovated, canceling the election method of throwing money, and voting instead, which virtually raised the grade, so that people from all walks of life could participate, so that it became a major event of the Ming Dynasty.

At that time, Liu Hongmei won the second place by one vote and became the champion of the Oiran Conference that year, and the win can be described as thrilling, when the votes of the two rose alternately, and until the last moment, I didn't know who would have the last laugh.

In the end, when the results came out, Liu Hongmei, who learned that she had won, was weak, and if she hadn't been supported by the maid next to her, she almost collapsed to the ground, and her whole body was already wet with sweat.
