Text Chapter 47 Eight Uniques of the Imperial River
The annual Flower Boat Festival.
Here we go.
The small boats docked at the riverside pier, full of people, drove towards the flower boats.
The boat was full of lanterns and stopped in the middle of the river, far away, like a long red lantern.
On the shore, there are people cheering and watching.
However, they knew that they would not be able to get on the flower boat.
Those who can get on the flower boat are invited internally, and the other is to spend a hundred taels of silver, or guess the riddle. To put it bluntly, it's either a little silver or a little talent.
On the board, there were several people with masks gossiping.
"The Eight Uniques of the Royal River, gathered here, are rare. ”
"Who's to say it's not, to be able to witness the election of the new Yuhe Eight Uniques. ”
"I don't know how many people can keep this title before the Eight Uniques of the Imperial River. I heard that a group of talented newcomers came this time. ”
"I've heard that behind the many people who came to run for election, they all stood with the rich people. ”
The Eight Uniques of the Royal River refer to the eight most famous Qinglou women in Kaifeng.
The Flower Boat Festival is a selection activity, selecting the eight most famous Qinglou women, and each of the eight who is selected as the eight best of the Yuhe, her value will rise several times, and most of the people who come to the election are the top brand of a Qinglou, the big name, or the carefully cultivated, potential newcomer.
Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, proficient in everything.
Poetry and songs, open your mouth and come.
For example, Chen Xi'er of Forgetful Garden, who was originally an official eunuch's family, has been learning piano, chess, calligraphy and painting since she was a child, but unfortunately, her father is in the official career, and he will inevitably rise and fall, and I heard that he offended the people in Beijing and was sentenced to a house raid. Her father died, and the family was broken, and as the eldest daughter, her mother had to provide for her, and her younger brother had to go to school.
And she herself has not touched the spring water with her five fingers since she was a child, and she can't help others with clothes and cook. And those ruffians are always thinking about her beauty.
She had someone in mind, Wei Wufeng, someone who had been engaged to her.
When they were young, they played together.
However, later, he went to study art, and occasionally wrote to her, and she often replied.
And the people who used to associate with her house are closed.
People walk tea cool.
She understood this sentence deeply.
She received a letter from him, she had a thousand words to tell, a lot of pain to confide in, but the pen fell on the paper, leaving only a single ink spot, and she did not reply.
What I am afraid of waiting for is disappointment and despair.
She had no choice but to sell herself and forget about her love.
She came to the Garden of Forgetfulness, and the bustard asked her to practice the piano and dance every day. During this period, most of his father's colleagues came to cheer her and listen to her play the piano.
"You're here to see Chen Xin'er?"
"No, I'm here to see Yue Ruyi, the leader of the Eight Uniques of the Royal River, it must be her this year. ”
Someone next to him interjected and said, "No, no, this year's leader must be Li Xiangjun." ”
Talking, talking, several people quarreled.
At this time, on the stage, Qian Fudo motioned for people to be quiet and said, "Welcome everyone, come to the annual Yuhe Eight Absolute Selection Competition." ”
"I, money doesn't move, I'm still the host of this competition. ”
"We have screened through layers of screens, and this time, there are thirty-six beauties to snatch the place of the Eight Uniques of the Royal River. ”
"And, whether they can be selected as the Eight Masters of the Royal River, the decision is in your hands. ”
"As in the past, if you give the most rewards, you can meet the girl alone, talk about wind flowers, snow moon, poetry, and songs. ”
Under the stage.
The audience in the front row, most of them were invited, they were all rich and powerful figures, but they were all wearing masks at the moment, but on the face, there was a mark, which was the special face of the flower boat for VIPs.
There are three types of faces, one is the VIP face, one is the staff's face, and the other is the tourist. Rely on guessing the answer or spend a hundred taels on the boat for tourists.
Why does Flower Boat make everyone wear a mask?
A big man with a face, or a person who opens his mouth and closes his mouth, or a Confucian who insults Sven, wears a mask, even if he is a colleague, or a brother-in-law, or his own son, standing in front of him, he can't recognize the other party.
Huachuan is very thoughtful in protecting the privacy of guests.
The handsome pot was deeply attracted by the scene in front of him, which was beautiful and wonderful.
"Okay, I won't say more, please come to the court. ”
A woman, wearing a pale mask and a thin green shirt, danced as soon as she came up, graceful and graceful, and the accompaniment on the side played the pipa.
The audience in the audience was fascinated.
As soon as the dance stopped, the audience shouted in unison, "Good!"
"The figure is awesome, reward, reward ten taels. ”
A person next to him said: "It's only ten taels, it's really stingy, Uncle Ben is rewarded, eleven taels." ”
The pot calling the kettle black.
Someone else shouted, "Reward for silver, a hundred taels." ”
Hua Xiangrong said, "Is it beautiful?"
"Beauty, that body, that dancing. Shuai Guo said subconsciously, and then said: "But it's not as beautiful as you." ”
Thankfully, I was quick to respond.
"Humph!"
Qian didn't move, walked on the stage, took out an hourglass, and said, "Countdown, a stick of incense." ”
When she takes off her mask, she can give any reward in a stick of incense, and this reward will be accumulated, and the fame will be counted according to the ranking of the reward.
It's the rule.
It's also a form of marketing.
And the one who gives the most tips will enter the room with the girl she likes, eat and chat together.
"Now please, Number One takes off his mask. ”
One slowly took off his mask.
I saw someone exclaim: "Isn't that Gao Mu." ”
"She was the first to appear. ”
Gao Mu, one of the eight uniques of the Royal River, when Gao Mu took off his mask, the crowd was boiling, screaming, shouting.
"Gao Mu, Gao Mu, I love you. ”
Gao Mu smiled slightly, made a flying kiss, and said, "Slave, it's up to you today." ”
"Ten taels. ”
"Five taels. ”
"One thousand taels. ”
The crowd shouted.
The little guys, step forward, write it down, and get the money back.
Soon five thousand taels were accumulated.
When the last grain of sand in the hourglass fell, Qian Budong picked up the hammer and struck the gong to announce the stop.
Gao Mu bent down and bowed, said thank you, and was invited down by Qian Buwu and replaced him.
in the crowd.
"Are these people crazy?" Hua Xiangrong was a little incomprehensible.
Shuai Guo said in his heart, if I had silver, I would also spend a lot of money and reward her. However, when my hand touched my pocket, it was empty, and I could only be a spectator.
Also, if you weren't next to me, I'd be cheering for her.
Her flying kiss is so charming.
Is she flying towards me?
Gao Mu looked at the audience, there were a group of people wearing masks, who knew you were the one.
However, as one of the eight unique Yuhe in the last session, he has no skills and does not dare to go on stage, which is also a kind of ability to make most of the male audiences in the audience have such a beautiful misunderstanding.
The candidacy continues.
Qian Bu said: "No. 10, that elegant dance, have you guessed who she is?"
"Please uncover your face. ”
The handsome pot was stunned, my one go, all of them are superb, charming and moving. I have never seen so many beauties at one time, and they are all laughing.
However, he didn't scream, he kept refraining, just because there was a flower standing next to him.
Hua Xiangrong looked at the stage and simply admired those dances, which was indeed beautiful enough.
And the appreciation point of the handsome pot is different, the legs, the chest, and the waist..... Except for dance.
"Look at you, your eyes are about to fall out. Hua Xiangrong said disgustedly.
Shuai Guo Zhengse, said: "Art, for art." ”
"Huh. Fortunately, she couldn't see Shuai Guo's expression, and the saliva flowed out and was added back.
Shuai Guoxin said: "I have long insight, I have really long insight, and it is worth the trip." ”
Someone shouted, "Chen Xi'er, it's Chen Xi'er." ”
Some people gave out silver, and the more the silver shouted, one person shouted coldly: "Reward a thousand taels." ”
A newcomer, someone actually rewarded a thousand taels, the call is really high.
The man said in his heart, Chen Xi'er, you may not know who I am, back then, you didn't even look at me, hehe, I didn't expect your family to be down, I will ...... tonight Thinking evil in my heart.
......
Suddenly.
The whole ship shook for a moment, as if it had hit something.
Qian didn't move to the person next to him and said, "What's going on, go and see." ”
The man went out quickly, and when he came back, he whispered, and hit a fishing boat, and it was already settled.
"Didn't you say that the river must be emptied tonight, and it must not be allowed to have a boat. ”
The sand in the hourglass was still slowly falling, and Chen Xi'er stood on the stage.
......
Tonight, the moon is full.
Hua Xiangrong looked at it for a while, and then walked to the board of the boat, breathing.
Through the moonlight, I vaguely saw that there was a person in the distance, and when the person got closer and closer, I saw clearly that the person was standing on a light boat, and there was no wind and automatically, coming to the side of the flower boat.
"Master. ”
Hua wants to Rong Xindao.
And at this moment, she was the only one standing on the board, and she didn't see this scene.
The boat is getting closer and closer.
As soon as the man jumped onto the deck of the ship, he landed in front of Hua Xiangrong.
"Hello. Wei Wufeng carried the sword on his back and said.
Hua Xiangrong didn't make a sound, Wei Wufeng said in his heart This is a strange person, wearing a mask and not speaking. And in the room, there was a lively sound, and he walked inside.
Wait to walk in.
The entire hall was masked, except for the two people on the stage.
He recognized Chen Xi'er at a glance, and her appearance was the same as when she was a child, not much changed.
At this time, someone shouted for a reward of 1,000 taels.
He shouted, "A sword." ”
It's all about rewarding silver, and someone actually gives a sword.
Qian Fudong looked over, the man was not wearing a mask, and he was carrying a sword, thinking to himself, there are people who do not abide by the rules of the flower boat.
Chen Xi'er looked over, her eyes turned red, and she recognized it.
The man who was once in his heart.
Excited, but she wanted to find a place to hide, she didn't want him to see her appearance and see herself in this place.
Wei Wufeng said, "I'm here." ”
He wrote so many letters to her, but they were all in vain, and he didn't reply. He always felt bad in his heart, so he sent someone to inquire, only to find out that her house had been raided, so he rushed over non-stop.
The money did not move, and said: "We only collect money, not swords." ”
Wei Wufeng ignored him, came directly to the stage, looked at Chen Xi'er affectionately, and said, "I'm back, I'm back to marry you." ”
Chen Xi'er cried into tears.
