Chapter Seventy-Eight: Martial Arts with Literature (4)
"Please get up and ...... the guest with the number 2521"
The middle-aged man stood on the platform, looked around the first floor, and then looked at the second floor, but no one came out. The smile on his face immediately stiffened, and he repeated what he had just said a few more times. Finally, a figure appeared from the second floor, which made his expression a lot easier. However, after the middle-aged man saw the man clearly, his face changed slightly.
The man was a young lady, dressed as a maid from head to toe. I saw her bow her head and say softly quickly: "My little lady is not in good health, so I abstained, please ask Mr. to draw the number of another distinguished guest." With that, she turned and walked briskly back to a corner room on the second floor.
This situation immediately provoked a whispered discussion in the lobby, and the middle-aged man didn't care about the embarrassment, said a few words, and continued to let people wait for the bamboo sticks drawn from the second floor. But Lu Xiang'er gave Lu Hong a look, meaning to let him see, isn't this really abstaining. Lu Hong shook his head and smiled, opening his mouth to say something. But he heard the louder and louder chatter nearby, and he closed his mouth again.
"Oops, what a wasted opportunity to show yourself to Liao Gongzi."
"What, she's pretending to be high-minded, making people think she's reserved."
"That's it, fake Qinggao, Liao Gongzi definitely doesn't like such a little lady."
"I see, maybe this little lady is very ugly, and I'm embarrassed to come out to meet people."
“……”
Listening to the discussion of the female dependents and female students nearby, Lu Xianger and Huo Qingqing looked at each other for the first time, and were speechless again. However, in the hearts of the two of them, they are constantly worshipping the gods and Buddhas of the heavens, don't draw them. Huo Qingqing didn't want to perform on stage, because she was afraid that Huo Qingsong would teach her a hard lesson if she knew it. And Lu Xianger simply doesn't want to be publicized, and if 'publicity' is too much, there will definitely be hardships.
Lu Xiang'er and Huo Qingqing's performance made Lu Hong a little funny. Originally, before coming to the party, Huo Qingqing, who had come from Beijing since Lu Hong, should also know about such a gathering. From her performance and demeanor, Lu Hong believed that Huo Qingsong had protected Huo Qingqing a little too much.
After smiling at each other with Feng Wen, Lu Hongcai explained to Lu Xiang'er and Huo Qingqing in a low voice. The Great Zhou Dynasty is known to have an open folk style, and such a relatively large gathering, no matter what the theme, there will be events of unmarried men and women getting married. Moreover, there have been many good stories in the past. Therefore, after a long time, there is an unwritten rule at various gatherings, which allows unmarried men and women to find the person they like.
However, ancient times are ancient times after all, and such things are more 'subtle', and the follow-up development after that is also more cumbersome. Therefore, the party has also become the only opportunity for unmarried men and women to see each other before they get married, or choose the person they like. is like a little lady who just found a waiver, and she became a 'fake Qinggao' in the eyes of everyone, and she was hated by them.
"So, abstaining isn't the best option." Lu Hong glanced at Lu Xiang'er with a smile, and then turned his head and looked at the stage with Feng Wen. Just now, a student of Luming Academy painted a huge landscape painting.
After all the landscape paintings were revealed, they immediately won the low applause of the audience. Even the mountain chief and the masters of Luming Academy walked out of the room, brushing their beards one by one and nodding their heads with a look of approval. Although Lu Xiang'er didn't know anything about painting, she also felt that the river was flowing and the trees on the mountain were swinging in the wind.
At this moment, the 'Yiwen Huiwu' party has entered a good situation, and it was either funny or unhappy before, and it was thrown aside. From the student to the stage with a happy face, the people on the stage after that are more and more amazing, Lu Xianger and Huo Qingqing are also more and more looking forward to what kind of talents will perform on stage.
"Next, please invite the distinguished guest numbered 1603 to the stage......" The middle-aged man raised his head and inspected the lobby after reading the bamboo sticks. And the people in the lobby are also looking around looking for this person.
Soon, in a corner, a white scholar with a bookish aura got up and walked out. I saw that he ignored the many eyes and slowly walked onto the stage with a calm expression. Just when the middle-aged man was about to open his mouth, he rushed to the front and whispered something. The middle-aged man looked embarrassed after hearing this, but after thinking about it carefully, he still nodded.
The middle-aged man motioned to the person next to him, prepared pen and ink on the stage on the side, and then said loudly: "This is Feng Wen from Luming Academy on the stage, and what he wants to show is also painting skills." However, he wanted to ask his classmate Lu Hong to complete the painting together. Even if Lu Hong is drawn again, he will not come to the stage again......"
Lu Hong got up in Feng Wen's smile and walked to the stage. Lu Xiang'er looked at Lu Hong's back, and suddenly felt that her brother, who had been with her for so many years, was a little incomprehensible to her. In the past, Lu Hong didn't bother to show anything in front of everyone. But now looking at Lu Hong, it seems that he and Feng Wen have already discussed doing this.
Huo Qingqing didn't know what Lu Xiang'er was thinking, so he asked curiously: "Xiang'er, what are Lu Hong and Feng Wen going to perform?" ”
"I don't know. However, my brother is a poet and doesn't like to draw, so he should be performing martial arts. Speaking of martial arts, Lu Xiang'er suddenly thought of something. She raised her eyes and looked back at the room where the fourth prince was on the second floor, before turning her head to look at Lu Hong on the stage, gently biting her lip with complicated eyes.
Lu Hong on the stage had already asked someone to find a gun, and Feng Wen was also standing behind the table next to him holding a brush. After he nodded lightly to Lu Hong, Lu Hong retracted his expression and probed the spear in his hand. A set of amazing marksmanship was demonstrated in Lu Hong's hands.
It is said that this set of marksmanship was originally taught to Lu Hong by Zhao Pu, a hunter in Qinghe Village. Later, Lu Hong met Huo Qingsong for the first time and learned a lot from him, and this set of marksmanship has changed a little. From the ordinary marksmanship that had lost its taste, it turned into a killing move with momentum like a rainbow field.
"What do you think of Lu Hong's marksmanship?" The fourth prince sat at the window, looked at Lu Hong on the platform, and asked the guards beside him softly.
The guard had been watching for a long time, then bowed down and said, "Back to Your Highness, Lu Hong's marksmanship is from a famous family, although it has changed too much, it still has a murderous aura. Not bad. ”
"Oh? If you can say yes, that's really good. The corners of the fourth prince's mouth raised, his fingers lightly tapped on the armrest of the chair, and said softly: "Lu Hong, interesting, I remember you." You write him down, and if he really can't pass the township test, help him. ”
"Yes, Fourth Prince." The guard straightened up and glanced at Lu Hong, and the appreciation in his eyes flashed.
In another room, Liao Wenbo looked out with a gentle expression, and the fan in his hand tapped his other hand rhythmically. After a long time, he said softly: "It seems that Lu Hong has already noticed something, otherwise, with his unassuming temperament, he would definitely not show his face in front of the four princes so abnormally today." ”
"In that case, let's stop at the academy first." Qingya reassured the teacup in her hand absently, and slowly walked to Liao Wenbo's side. Glancing out the window, a strange smile suddenly appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Arrange for me to meet Lu Hong......
"Okay—"
Lu Hong received the gun to his side, and there was an immediate cheer in the lobby. Whether they knew Lu Hong or not, they were all surprised that Lu Hong would be able to do such martial arts. Even Lu Hong's martial arts master stared at Lu Hong with a look of surprise, as if he had only known him on the first day.
And when Feng Wen's paintings were revealed, everyone was taken aback again. The marksmanship that Lu Hong used just now obviously made people feel their blood boiling, as if they were in the same field. Feng Wen's paintings, on the other hand, place Lu Hong among the green mountains and green waters, and there is a kind of relaxed freehand of a hermit practicing martial arts.
Two different styles, appearing at the same time, once again made the lobby resound. It can be said that the perfect cooperation between Lu Hong and Feng Wen left a deep impression on everyone. I'm afraid that from tonight onwards, the students in Luming Academy will know about Lu Hong and Feng Wen.
After another small climax, the middle-aged man took out another bamboo stick, and the number on it turned out to belong to Liao Wenbo's cousin Qingya. Lu Hong, who was receiving congratulations from Lu Xiang'er and Huo Qingqing, was stunned on the spot when he saw Qingya on the second floor coming out of the room.
Lu Xiang'er looked at Lu Hong, then at Qingya, and sat down without saying anything. But Lu Hong was still standing, so Lu Xiang'er pulled the corner of his clothes hard, and Lu Hong found that the entire lobby was still standing by himself. Thinking of his appearance just now in a daze, let everyone see it, his face immediately turned a little red.
In fact, after Qingya came out, not only Lu Hong, but most of the people were looking at her intently. It's just that only Lu Hong is standing, and he is particularly prominent, and Qingya can see him at a glance. Therefore, Qingya smiled faintly at Lu Hong, sat down at the low table that the maid had prepared a long time ago, and reached out to stroke the guqin on the table.
As a string of melodious pianos sounded on the second floor, all the little ladies who had played the guqin before lowered their heads a little ashamedly. And those who are proficient in music and rhythm do not stop nodding, and close their eyes and listen to the elegant sound of the piano.
When he was in Qianzhou, Song Yuan also taught Lu Xianger the guqin. After that, although Lu Xianger didn't have the time to learn guqin, she still remembered some music theory. I have to say that the elegant person is beautiful, and this piano is also quite good. It is normal for such a little lady to be admired.
However, Lu Hong's intoxicated appearance looked in Lu Xiang'er's eyes, but she was very worried. If Lu Xiang'er is not mistaken, the look in Lu Hong's eyes is not admiration, but admiration. With the current situation of the two, Lu Xianger doesn't think that Qingya can be her sister-in-law at all.
However, Lu Xiang'er didn't have time to worry about Lu Hong. Because the middle-aged man walked up to the stage with a bamboo stick again, and read out a string of numbers that frightened Lu Xiang'er: two, three, three, five.
