A war between two beauties
The next day, there was a rumor in Chang'an City that Zhao Feng was exposed at the wedding banquet of Fengyun Hall. At the same time, what is more popular in Chang'an City is Tang Sanniang's peerless beauty in the prosperous era. Her glamorous appearance at the wedding scene made those dignitaries and dignitaries in Chang'an City talk about it. Everyone was proud to witness her glory. After Tang Sanniang came back from the wedding banquet, she felt an incomparable joy in her heart.
Suddenly, an indescribable thought rose from her heart. She now feels that the competition on the rivers and lakes is not limited to what jewelry, power, fighting, killing or whatever. She felt that it was similar to attending a wedding, winning the opponent in front of the public, and making herself the focus of the public was also a victory.
The bustle and prosperity in Chang'an City attracted merchants and dignitaries from all directions. The annual festival of celebrating Guan Gong has arrived. These days, from the princes and nobles to the peddlers and pawns, they have all taken to the streets to join in the excitement. I saw people playing lions, horseback riders, dry boats, stilts,,, martial arts fighting, and singing on the streets. Various performances. It's dizzying.
The most lively is still singing. This is the place where the crowd is the largest. The dignitaries craned their necks and stared at the stage. There is also a program on this stage, which is the joy of all people. That is, the audience can participate in the performance and show their skills.
Today, Wang Yun and Ji Xiaoniang also came to see the excitement. The performance on stage is over. The audience is invited to participate freely. This Ji Xiao Niang is dressed up very brightly today, with black hair, snow-white and graceful neck, delicate face, big black eyes, a straight hanging nose, red lips, and neat snow-white teeth. Wear a pink dress. She is in a very happy mood today, as if she has returned to the time when she was a teenager. No, the prosperity of the capital Luoyang is ten times stronger than her in Wushan. She thought to herself. I was infected by the atmosphere of joy for all the people. She jumped up, went up to the stage, clasped her fists with both hands, and saluted around: Xiaomin Ji Xiao Niang, offer clumsy art to have fun with everyone, and if it is inappropriate, add more Haihan! The unpredictable skills and delicate figure made the audience applaud and applaud. The audience was already crowded. All the focus was on Ji Xiaoniang. At this time, those dignitaries and nobles were talking about it below. Who is this? It's beautiful! Someone else chimed in: She is really the best beauty in the world! Someone asked: Is she the legendary peerless Tang Sanniang? I only heard a person next to me mock this spectator and said: Tang Sanniang, you haven't seen it? Then he said: I see, she is even more beautiful than Tang Sanniang! Everyone kept echoing, yes, yes, the first beauty in the capital!
At this time, someone said, you see that she is as beautiful as a red peony, she is really the most beautiful person I have ever met.
At this time, Tang Sanniang couldn't hold back the comparison in her heart. Teng, from behind, jumped to the stage. Said to everyone. I, Tang Sanniang, performed for everyone! The audience saw that Tang Sanniang was dressed in plain clothes, with a beautiful face and a beautiful appearance. Dance a long sword. Ji Xiaoniang was dressed in red makeup and danced a long sword. The performance of the two on this stage became the focus of all the performances today. There was a lot of discussion in the audience. It's really enjoyable. I saw that the red-clothed Ji Xiaoniang was a swallow falling into the flat sand, and the white-clothed Tang Sanniang was an eagle spreading its wings. The red clothes came to turn the river and the sea, and the white clothes came to the bottom of the sea to catch the moon. One swept thousands of troops, and one was overpowered. You come on both sides, and I go. The sword flower flies. The whole stage looks like two delicate flowers, red roses and white lotuses. The audience roared with joy. These two people are so beautiful! They are so skilled! The red ones are the first! The white ones are the first! The audience is arguing endlessly, and it is difficult to distinguish between them. It caused a sensation in the entire capital for a while. The competition between the two beauties has become the center of street discussions. Princes and nobles often fight over who is the most beautiful. In the evening, when she returned home, Tang Sanniang pondered, how
Win back her popularity and defeat Ji Xiaoniang? Suddenly, she made a clever move. The next day, she called her entourage to her side and instructed: You go to the rouge shops in various parts of the capital to inquire in the past few days. Go to the market and squat down to see which store Ji Xiaoniang often goes to buy incense powder. Come back and tell me. : A few days passed. The attendant told her that Ji Xiaoniang often went to a fragrant powder shop called Shu Yamei in Dongshi to buy incense powder and rouge. After hearing this, Tang Sanniang ordered someone to take down this shop called Shu Yamei at a high price. And secretly added a weakly acidic thing to all the goods, all the incense powder.
On this day, Ji Xiaoniang, as in the past, came to the Shuyamei rouge shop in Dongshi and bought incense powder and rouge. She went home, washed her face, and applied it to her face, and after a while she felt a hot pain on her face. She thought it was strange. I usually use this store's incense powder all the time, and this has never happened. Later, I found out that the guy in the store had also changed. It seems to be someone from Tang Sanniang's house. She seemed to have guessed something. Hey, someone once said that in this world, jealousy between beautiful women is terrible and fatal. With the passage of time, the beauty of Tang Sanniang and Xiao Niang, who are as charming as flowers, have always been the topic of discussion among those good men in the capital. On this day, Wang Yun and Ji Xiaoniang came to North Street, and the food here has always made Ji Xiaoniang fall in love. Here are some of the best meatball soups in the capital. This is Xiao Niang's favorite. When the two of them finished their meal. Suddenly, a little girl came over, looking very pitiful, and asked Ji Xiaoniang what she wanted to eat. Ji Xiaoniang bent down, caressed the little girl's thin clothes, and took out a little bit of broken silver taels and stuffed them into the girl's hand. Suddenly, the girl burst into tears. She cried loudly and said: She is sorry for Ji Xiaoniang. Wang Yun and Ji Xiaoniang were puzzled. The woman stopped crying and said, "She has been commissioned by a woman to do bad things." The girl slowly took out a sharp knife from her sleeve and said, "The woman said, let me make your face ugly when you are not paying attention." Leave a long scar, so that she is the most beautiful in the capital. Saying that, the little girl looked at Ji Xiaoniang uneasily. Ji Xiaoniang gently patted her shoulder, handed a piece of green onion cake to the girl, and asked with a smile: Do you think I am a bad person? Do you want me to become an ugly monster? The little girl flashed her big eyes and said in a childish voice, You are a good person, so I won't let you become an ugly monster! Wang Yun and Ji Xiaoniang both laughed. Wang Yun and Ji Xiaoniang sighed as they walked on North Street: The capital has changed so much! When I was young, I often came to this street to play. Now my mood has changed. Ji Xiaoniang suddenly groaned: If you want to buy osmanthus and carry wine, it will not be like a teenager!
