After most of the Qinglou women's painting boats with heads and faces in Ruyang City gathered on the lake, this year's big competition began.

Every general election will be held on last year's top painting boat, last year's top name was Gong Niyi, and the rest of the women have not yet boarded her painting boat, she has already begun to canvass for votes.

The boatman on Liu Yi's boat said with a smile: "Look at that silk shirt, it is worth thousands of taels of silver, to say the least." ”

Liu Yi stood at the bow of the boat, the breeze came slowly, the water waves rose, and Liu Yi's white robe also swayed with the wind.

Some people say that a poor ghost is a poor ghost, I am afraid that this white robe has been a classic belongings, and some people feel that he is still carrying a sword, and he should be a Jianghu man with a high status.

The boatman said embarrassedly: "Don't care, Childe, the people in Beijing will praise it." ”

Liu Yi smiled casually, "When did I care?"

The boatman chuckled, "A character like Childe can actually care about it, the Oiran in Beijing has seen a lot of scholars who can speak and sing, and I have also seen a lot of people who move out of their fathers and ancestors to oppress people at every turn, and they are angry at the crown, but they are just a few, and after two hours of getting along, the little old man feels that the son will definitely not be able to write poetry, and the son of a large family will not take the broken boat of the little old man, only the soldier is dangerous." ”

The boatman laughed as he spoke, "Little Lao'er has to remind Childe, 'Childe can pick up those little Oiran who are not so famous and have special potential'." ”

Liu Yi said with a smile: "I understand the truth that persimmons are specially selected and pinched, and the boatman often gives people tips, so do you collect money?"

The boatman chuckled, "That's the truth. ”

Liu Yi looked at the lamplight and said softly: "I heard that the Daqin royal family has a palace guard locust tree, can't it be Mr.?"

The boatman laughed, took off his hat to reveal his face, and the boatman threw his hat into the water, and said helplessly: "Childe is really exquisite, do you see that the old man wants to stroke his beard countless times?"

Liu Yi shook his head, "It seems that everyone in the world regards me Liu Yi as the number one person, so I will keep an eye on it when I get along with people, sir, don't be surprised, I am really scared." ”

The boatman waved his hand and said: "The emperor insisted on asking me to come, I said that I didn't pretend to be, and he insisted that I pretended to be, which was accidentally exposed." ”

Liu Yi turned to look at this disguised boatman, only to see that this person was purple-haired and blue-eyed, tall, even if he was wearing ordinary civilian clothes, he still couldn't hide the majestic qi, Liu Yi shook his head and said: "Why use a cattle slaughtering knife to kill chickens, Mr. is not here to kill me." ”

The boatman smiled: "On the roof of the palace, Lao Tzu has picked his feet countless times, in Ruyang City, you are a real person of the three sects or a scattered immortal in the rivers and lakes, as long as you are not a saint, don't think you can beat Lao Tzu, do you think Lao Tzu will kill a young junior like you?"

Liu Yi smiled: "Not necessarily, the older generation is shameless, and it is particularly shameless." ”

The old man looked helpless, "The Confucian sage is not here, and the human heart is not ancient!"

Daqin's palace guard, in the palace, Emperor Qin saw that he had to kneel down and call Mr. Shi, he never forgot a sage said by a junior scholar.

When the scholar said, "Knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing, and it is wisdom," as if he was speaking on behalf of a sage, which was tens of millions of catties heavier than this sentence in the Confucian classics.

Shi Qingya was curious about how this young man recognized him.

Liu Yi saw Shi Qingya's expression and explained: "First, when Mr. said Xiao Lao'er, it was very unnatural, it didn't seem to be a Beijing accent, I listened to the Beijing dialect for a few days and I could also know how to say the three words 'little Lao'er' in the Beijing dialect, Geng Jing had already heard it just now." The second is that Mr. is different, it is undeniable that Mr. has wasted a lot of effort in disguise, but I Liu Yi is also a person who practices swords, and after seeing Mr. Paddle, Liu Yi slowly became convinced that Mr. was a person who practiced swords. Isn't it strange for a man who is better at swordsmanship than me to do the work of rocking oars?"

Shi Qingya asked, "Then how do you know that the old man is Shi Qingya?"

Liu Yi smiled: " This is even simpler, I offended seven or eight groups of people, if it is in Baizhu City, I may not know who Mr. is, but I know who Mr. is doing things for, let's put it this way, in any place in the nine counties, Liu Yi can probably only guess the identity of Mr., but I can't guess who Mr. is, in Ruyang City, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, judging from the performance of the entire royal family, His Majesty the Emperor today is too doting on Yang Zhi, a stinky boy, then Mr. must be the closest and most trusted person to His Majesty the Emperor, His Majesty the Emperor who created the prosperous era of Daqin, is wise and ambitious, except for Daqin Shougong Huai, everyone else is just his courtiers, can not be trusted。 ”

Shi Qingya smiled: "No wonder someone put you at the juncture of the dispute between the three religions. Mr. Xu taught you to read, Qingjing taught you the Tao, and now you will send a great monk to teach you the Dharma. Young man, listening to the old man's advice, wisdom will hurt, it is not a good thing. ”

Liu Yi shook his head, "I faintly feel that I am a little extraordinary, and I always feel that I can become famous by practicing swords." ”

Shi Qingya laughed, "It's extremely fun to peel off the cocoon at that time, but let's save my life first and then talk about anything else." ”

Liu Yi asked, "Sir, can you beat my master Qingjing?"

Shi Qingya's voice raised an octave and said: "I can beat it, how can I not beat it, Lao Tzu is Daqin Shougong Huai, he is a Taoist real person who wants to call me out, if it weren't for the lack of time, I would like to go up to Xuankong Mountain to smoke him a few big mouths, you are too uninformed in this later life." ”

Liu Yi laughed, "Listening to Mr.'s tone, he can't beat it." ”

Shi Qingya's face was impatient, "Believe it or not, Lao Tzu threw you on the flower boat." ”

Liu Yi smiled: "I can't ask for it." ”

Shi Qingya said with a smile: ", Lao Tzu has changed his mind, know the Qingqing girl, then you kid will go to her dress again and be blinded, Lao Tzu was busy rushing back to see the moonlight, Cao Du wrote a sentence 'The night is beautiful tonight', it is true." ”

Liu Yi was sent to the Qingqing girl's painting boat, and Shi Qingya left in the boat.

Liu Yi blinked and saw the boat swaying on the river, there was no one on the boat, the river water blown by the cold wind shook the conscience wood pulp, I don't know if it was the shaking of the wood pulp that made the boat faster, or the cold wind directly pushed the boat.

Liu Yi was holding on to the railing outside the painting boat, and those with sweat on their backs knew how cool the cold wind was.

The young girl still took a little time out of her busy schedule to meet Liu Yi, the old man.

The young girl who changed into a lilac dress won a lot of applause before she took the stage tonight, because she was in the green building all the year round, and the young girl would say good things when she met people, and she didn't mind Liu Yi who offended her just now, and personally brought a pot of wine to Liu Yi.

Liu Yi looked at the Qingqing girl and chuckled: "After the Qingqing girl changed into a purple dress, she gave people a lot of elegance. ”

The young girl chuckled, "Liu Gongzi is in a place where the lights are dim, and the cold wind is blowing, and he is like a god." ”

The two of them may have met a few hours ago, and after the polite words were finished, they did not say anything, just quietly looked at the large and small ships on the river.

Qingqing said goodbye, turned around and entered the interior of the painting boat, she had a lot of things to do tonight, and there were many people to accompany.

Gong Niyi's boat remembered the tight and fierce gong and drum beat, and the rest of the people on the boat quickly boarded Gong Niyi's painting boat.

Gong Niyi's painting boat seems to have been rebuilt recently, it is large and wide, and the people gathered on the other nine painting boats do not feel crowded after getting on Gong Niyi's painting boat, even if they are standing outside the door, they can see the scene inside from the window.

Unfortunately, Liu Yi was one of the people standing outside the door.

Liu Yi saw that the rehearsal of the lottery in the room was even more formal than Qingfeng Cottage, and it was a glance.

Scholars are romantic, scholars and romance seem to be born together, so most of the judges are scholars.

Liu Yi saw the Danqing Holy Hand named Zheng Danqing, who was dozing off due to his old age.

Except for the eldest Zheng Danqing, Liu Yi didn't know any of the scholars inside, but fortunately, there was no shortage of people in Beijing who loved to show off.

There was a man in the hall who was feasting on the food in front of him, shouting, "Only the present is not to be disappointed." ”

Liu Yi glanced at the scholar named Liu Qiqing, feeling like a starving ghost reincarnated.

It was already late at night when everything was ready, the river was murmuring, the breeze was blowing, and a few poorly dressed scholars were holding lanterns to keep warm.

Liu Yi hugged his sword and looked into the house, and the first one to come out was last year's No. 1 Oiran Palace Niyi.

Gong Niyi was dressed in white, and the snow was all over the sky.

In the cold winter, the crow landed on the plum branch, and because it could not find food, it pecked a plum blossom in its mouth.

Gong Niyi sang a song, "The hibiscus falls into the sky and the water, and the sunset rises." The back flies and the swallows are close to the clouds, and they look at the east side of the small building alone. Fusheng only respects the old man, and the snow is full of Chang'an Road. The old man raised the platform in the morning and evening, and gave me the spring color of the south of the Yangtze River and a plum branch. ”

The figure is slender, the singing voice is tactful, and the dancing posture is graceful.

Anger changes with the sound of the zither, and the ups and downs follow the beat of the drum.

After a song, the dance slowly stopped.

The hall was full of applause, and Liu Yi couldn't help but clap his hands.

Gong Niyi was able to win the first place last year, not only because of a beautiful name, but also because of her exquisite color.

This year's rehearsal was a disadvantage for her first appearance, but Gong Niyi remedied this disadvantage with her talent.

The second to appear was Pei Nu, who went on stage with a pipa in one hand and a skirt in the other.

Tonight, Pei Nu walked in a cold-toned way, there was nothing on her black clothes, and her long hair was combed into a crooked bun of the forbidden army of the Great Qin Imperial City.

Pei Nu, known as the invincible right-handed pipa Qingqi people, because her pipa composes more side plug style, Jin Ge iron horse, strong man Huang Sha, in just two years to Beijing, with the invincible pipa in the right hand, she successfully squeezed into the list of ten.

Because of her pipa, Yu Yu, who is the best at sword dancing in Ruyang City, is willing to dance the sword for her for a lifetime, and she is also willing to dance for him and the sword for a lifetime.

The sound of the pipa started, Yu Yu's long sword turned a backflip, and between the long sword stabs, there was an occasional sound.

Everyone was fascinated by this pipa, and some people were fantasizing that they were a ranger who went to the end of the world with a sword, and he was chivalrous and righteous all the way, and his reputation spread. Someone is slowly moving towards himself is a side stopper, and the two armies are facing each other, and they are silent.

The sound of the pipa stopped abruptly, and everyone suddenly woke up and applauded!

Qingqing girl is not very lucky, today she drew a third, Qingqing is still the same uncumbersome purple dress just now.

After the young girl led a young man in white to the field, the boat slowly descended from the upper floor.

Qingqing helped Gongzi to get on the boat, Gongzi sat on the bow of the boat, Qingqing gently shook the oars at the stern, and sang softly: "Tonight, he will be in the middle of the boat, and he will be in the same boat with the prince today." Shame is not ashamed to be ashamed. I was troubled and learned about the prince. The mountains have trees and branches, and the heart is pleasing to the king. ”

After singing, the people in the room were hesitant and at a loss. Those who don't understand don't know why.

Due to the dangerous tactics of the soldiers, the way of the young girl was mediocre and had no advantages.

The fourth is Sui Zhu, a Qing man who can only play the piano and sings tonight: "On the gold list." Occasionally, the dragon's head is missing. The temporary legacy of the Ming Dynasty, how to. The attempt is easy, and the fight is unbridled. There is no need to talk about mourning. A talented lyricist, he is a white-clothed minister. Fireworks Alley, Yiyo Danqing Barrier. Fortunately, there is a person who can be searched. And the red leaning on the green, the romance and the life are smooth. Youth is paid. endured the floating name and changed it to a shallow low singing. ”

Not everyone understands what Sui Zhu is singing, but everyone understands the sentence "endure the floating name, and change the shallow and low singing".

Everyone knows that Sui Zhu is Liu Qiqing's friend, so Liu Qiqing has come up with a new word.

The painting boat was boiling, and there was a good sentence "Bear with the floating name, change the shallow and low singing".

The scholars gathered on the painting boat tonight are scholars who are proud of their reading and frustrated in scientific examinations, and this sentence "endure the floating name and change it to a shallow low singing" is just a true portrayal of their current lives.

All the scholars were sad, and more of them were emotionally moved by this sentence.

Everyone applauded, except for Liu Yi, he didn't walk across the single-plank bridge with thousands of troops, he didn't know the difficulty of scientific research.

Liu Qiqing heard everyone's applause, and he drank all the wine in his cup.

He didn't know, but he liked to have someone cheer him on, and this life was enough.
