"It's not a joke, is it......" Chen Xiangnian looked surprised.

Yes, it seems like a joke.

It's an empty couplet, a white couplet, with no words on it......

"Shopkeeper, how is this so!" Ji Yunchang seemed to frown.

Xiao Er was also sweating at this time...... Sons, the little ones really don't know what's going on, these riddles, were put in by the original son, last year, the previous couplets have people to right, but this is the first time to open it. I don't know what's going on with the little one......"

Xiao Er looked nervous, Xu Zhen didn't care about him. Everyone looked at each other, and they were all deflated. By the way, it took a long time, and in the end, it was this result, and it felt like someone had played it.

Xu is playing with a child's temperament, I stood up and said, "Little second brother, do you have a big wolf?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes! Wait a minute, I'll get it for you. With that, he ran downstairs and brought not only the pen, but also the paper and the ink.

I walked over to take the pen and dip it in ink, and everyone looked at me in surprise, but I didn't pay attention to it, put away the pen, brushed it a few times, and then painted the white paper in black.

At the end, I put down the wolf's pen, looked at my masterpiece with satisfaction, and said to the shopkeeper, "Little second brother, the person who started the mystery, how do you need to contact him?" ”

Xiao Erdao said, "If someone goes out of the way, he only needs to leave his surname and name, he comes once every six months, if he goes out, he will not rely on the money and not give it." ”

I nodded, "That's good, we won't keep this name, if one day, that person comes to your store, you will give him this ink couplet, tell him that someone is right about his couplet." ”

He is white, and I am black. He was colorless, and I was inked. If he's trying to make fun of people, I'll improvise graffiti, and that's it.

Xiao Er nodded and said, "Okay, good, the little one must be conveyed." ”

At this time, the sound of drums and pianos outside the window was soft, and the noise that had been idle was suppressed, and there were bursts of cheers.

The tea has been drunk enough, the snacks have been tasted, and the lantern riddle couplets have also been played, and everyone wants to see who this year's Yuan Lantern Oiran will finally be.

After paying the money, I went downstairs in turn, and Li Jiu was still sitting in the corner of the house, pretending to look out of the window with an excited face, I thought I was going to the toilet, and I fell behind the crowd, and waited at the door of the thatched house for a while, and Li Jiu hurried over.

"Eun Gong." He shouted, looked at no one around, and asked, "Engong, you asked Li Jiu to wait here, but there is something to order?" ”

I didn't want to hide it from him, so I said first, "The people you brought are all quite shrewd?" ”

He affirmed, "Don't worry, Li Jiu is also safe, these people have a very good relationship, there is one, the family used to be generous, and he also learned a little kung fu." ”

I nodded, "That's good." A few days ago, I asked you to spread the word, and you must have thought about it in your heart, today's Oiran meeting, I want Momiji to win the championship. ”

Li Jiu asked, "Engong...... But is there any way? ”

My plan was already bold, and I didn't have too many cards to use in my hand, so I honestly said, "There is no way, do you have a way to mix people into a place close to the venue in order to deliver the message?" ”

Li Jiule said, "Don't worry, on the right side of the flower platform, the little slave who is responsible for the security of the venue is our people, I have already let our people be distributed around the flower platform, and it is natural and simple to spread the news." ”

It's just wonderful.

My heart was half relieved, and I said, "I'm following people around me, a lot of things are inconvenient, when it's time for Momiji to win the championship, I'll help her do some small means, you need to stand in the distance and see the opportunity, in the fastest way, and the least people will find out, I will pass the news I gave you to Momiji, can you do it?" ”

Li Jiu clenched his fists and said, "I will live up to the trust of my father." ”

"Ahem......" Lu Zhu suddenly coughed hard, it should be someone coming, so I told Li Jiu to hide for a while, and then dressed up and walked out of the alley. From afar, I saw Ji Yun often pacing on foot, maybe I saw that I hadn't kept up with the team for a long time, and I was afraid that something would happen.

"Let's go." I took two steps up to meet him. He paused behind me, then nodded, and went with me to find the Seven Princes.

It was past the unitary hour, but there were no fewer passers-by watching the lanterns on the street, seeing the Seven Princes walking slowly in front, but we just couldn't catch up. It's easy to wait until they reach the high ground where they stand, the last round of the ring seems to be over, the peony of the Yin Red Mansion is dancing, and the next one should be the red leaves.

Peony deliberately dressed up carefully today, painted forehead makeup, pasted sideburns, and passed a folded skirt with a hem full of beads and diamonds. ”

Helian Yunnuma smiled slightly, and said, "Since Brother Seventh likes it, I will redeem her later, and how about taking her back to be a dancing concubine?" ”

Helian Yunze shook his head busily, "Forget it, this kind of Qinglou woman, it's better not to tie it in the house." Besides, your seventh sister-in-law has a bad temper, and I'm afraid of taking me back, and she will be jealous. ”

I'm afraid the last sentence is the key.

Helian Yunnuma smiled slightly, watching the dance with his back hand. At this time, I felt someone pull my cuffs, and when I turned my head, I saw that it was Chen Xiangnian.

Something?

She swallowed a few times, and finally asked in a low voice, "When did you have such a good relationship with the little marquis and the two princes, and still travel together?" ”

I said truthfully, "After I went today, I also sent it to see the old lady, Ji Xiaohou was ordered to send me, and I met two princes on the way, so I came together." ”

"Oh, that's right." Chen Xiangnian nodded, and secretly glanced at Ji Yunchang, who was holding his back in front of him, and looked like an adult, his face turned red, as if he was talking to me, and he seemed to be talking to himself, "Little Hou Ye, today, it's different." ”

I'm kind of weird, how is it different? It's not like that.

"I've never seen him talk much, but today, he says a lot." After speaking, Chen Xiangnian's face turned even redder, and the lantern was reflected, like a glow.

I'm even more strange, doesn't he like to talk? No, right......

This kung fu, the chime drum sounded, the peony on the stage danced, and the audience suddenly called for fame. She smiled and bowed.

followed by a handsome woman with a pink face. She held a beautiful bun, with a string of long earrings, wrists and ankles with bells, a jacket and a small dance dress delicate and handsome, dancing with the flowers, there was a unique exotic style, which led to bursts of shouts from the audience.

To be able to pass the triple screening of the Oiran Competition, there must be some ways.

At the end of the dance, he smiled shyly and turned around and stepped off the stage. Subsequently, a servant moved on a bamboo stool, and a woman in a water-green dress stepped onto the stage, first bowed to the audience, and then sat on the stool, lightly opened her lips and raised her jade hand, and a melodious crisp flute sounded.

This girl blows about the mountains and flowing water, sometimes cheerful, sometimes graceful, and the listeners are fascinated.

I suddenly thought that Helian Yunnuma loved to listen to the flute the most, and I couldn't help but glance at him, and when I saw that he really listened, I tilted my head slightly and looked into the distance without knowing what I was thinking. And Liu Rong'er beside him looked at her unintentionally, her beautiful eyes reflected the light of the lantern festival, and the beauty was heartwarming.

People don't know how to paint in the painting, and they don't know the love in the depths. All men and women in the world are trapped by love, and I seemed to be the same back then.

I sighed, sank away my thoughts, and listened to the flute in peace.

At the end of the song, the hall applauded, and the woman saluted and stepped down.

Shallow hugging the pipa and half-covering his face, he called out for a long time.

The last one to come on stage was the veiled Momiji holding the pipa.

"Knock ......" she gently plucked the strings, and the audience was silent. She raised her eyes and swept the crowd and began to sing......

The repertoire she chose today was arranged by me in advance, called Floating Flower Yin. The melody is poignant, beautiful and low, which is really not suitable for today's festive day.

But......

Today's flower girl performance is full of joy and excitement, and everyone has long been aesthetically tired. Besides, Momiji has already made a statement, but he has never shown up, and today he is new elsewhere, and everyone wants to see his appearance.

Almost as soon as the song fell, everyone called for her to take the veil, and she seemed to be very shy, and finally pulled down the veil in the call.

The red leaves are also considered to be beautiful, and today they have been specially dressed up, the moonlight is hazy, and she is even more charming and moving, and the audience suddenly was in a commotion, and then burst into bursts of enthusiastic cheers.

I smiled slightly, yes, that's the effect.

The four beauties, each with their own talents, means that the influence of the red leaves is greater, and there are many followers of the other girls, if the position of the Oiran is given to anyone alone, others will naturally not agree, so there is a final round of selection.

Different from the usual competition, this year's final round of the competition is a bit similar to drawing lots.

That is, put something in the carton and write a prompt for them to guess the contents of the box according to the meaning of the note. Each person guessed three times, and the closest result to the item in the box was this year's Oiran.

It's a bit of a game, but it's also fair. After a while, someone came up with a few boxes. After a little girl sent a note to the four beauties, she stepped back, and I saw that after Hongye took the paper, she seemed to frown, and after a while, Li Jiu's people quickly came with a message, saying that the note in her hand was written with the words "and circle".

The range of words is larger, and the round characters are naturally larger, which is really hard to guess. ，

I thought about it for a while, and after a lot of inner struggle, I made a big decision.

I'm going to use mystical power to see what's in the box.

I closed my eyes, pondered, and stared intently at the box......

Maybe it was because it was far away, and I couldn't see clearly, so I had to close my eyes again and concentrate all my energy to see...

Slowly, it seems that the gaze can penetrate the cardboard box, although it is vague, but it seems to ...... You can see that there is a little light inside, and the thing is covered with a layer of red cloth, and under the red cloth is a .........

"Hey! You're here too! ”

I was looking intently and carefully, when I was suddenly tapped on the shoulder, I felt a flower in front of my eyes, and I felt dizzy for a while, and when the Venus in my eyes receded, I looked at the box again, but I couldn't see anything.

A burst of anger rose to the sky, and I wanted to strangle the person who suddenly slapped me to death!

Gritting my teeth, I turned around sharply,

Who! Who patted me on the shoulder!
