Chapter 183: Beauty with Blue Eyes
For these young ladies and the like, Chen Shu was not interested at all, and after a while, he wanted to say goodbye to Yuan Xing and make an appointment another day. But at this moment, a middle-aged man in his forties nodded and came over, and said with a smile: "A few young masters, are you invited upstairs?"
Yuan Xing pulled Chen Shu and laughed: "Of course, Ding Er, I heard that you have a peerless beauty here, but is it true?"
Na Ding Er grinned and said, "Of course this is true, is the second son also here for this?"
Yuan Xing snorted and said, "I just returned to the city, and I don't know anything. Since there is such a thing, let me see, if you blow it, don't blame me for smashing your shop. ”
Na Ding Er hurriedly said: "Do you know, this Ruoyue girl, she ...... She's got a big shelf. There hasn't been a single one in the capital who has seen her yet, isn't this set for today, a competition?"
Yuan Xing walked upstairs and said strangely: "How can this be said? How can no one see it?
Na Ding Er smiled mysteriously and said in a low voice: "We are here, naturally we respect talent and learning. Please each chant a poem, and those who are most in line with Miss Ruoyue's mind can be invited into the inner room to see the beauty, and you can also listen to Miss Ruoyue play the piano alone. ”
Yuan Xing shouted: "What? Just listen to her play the piano, can't you even kiss Fang Ze?"
Ding Er made a bitter face and said, "This little one can't be said. ”
Fang Hefeng coughed and said in a low voice: "Second brother is cautious, this girl is very big, I heard that it is related to Suofu." ”
Yuan Xing was also slightly startled, and suddenly didn't dare to say more. Chen Shu secretly thought about Suofu, could it be Sony among the four auxiliary ministers of Kangxi? He remembered that Sony should be dead at this time, but this world is chaotic in time and space, so maybe it will be said. But if this woman really has something to do with such a big man, why would she come to such a place to make a fuss?
At this time, Yuan Xing had already walked up the stairs and turned around to pull him. Chen Shu had no choice but to follow, and the teenagers saw that Yuan Xing had a kind attitude towards Chen Shu. They were all quite surprised, and while following behind, they talked about each other.
Ding Er led several people into a hall, and the furnishings were extremely gorgeous. Several women in costumes were singing and dancing lightly, and there were many people sitting on both sides of the feast.
As soon as Yuan Xing and his party came in, they attracted a lot of attention. Yuan Xing was also greatly surprised, and said curiously: "Why are there so many people? Brother Zheng." Looks like we're still in time for a big event!"
Before Chen Shu could answer, he heard a strange smile from a person next to him: "Yuan Laoer, do you dare to come to offer ugliness? Do you know how to compose poems? Or do you want to show your two-handed and three-legged cat kung fu?"
Yuan Xing's face turned cold, he looked at the person who spoke, and sneered: "The surname Ban, what are your skills? Look at your face, but was beaten by me last time?
The man obviously had a conflict with him, and as soon as the two said a few words, they immediately became tense and glared at each other fiercely. Xie Qiyu and the others all rushed forward and stood next to Yuan Xing to support him. That person also has a lot of richly dressed sons and brothers, and it seems that they are all in this circle.
Chen Shu covered his forehead in boredom and took a step back.
At this time, Ding Er hurriedly ran over in sweat and persuaded each other repeatedly, and finally persuaded the two of them down. Yuan Xing leaned over hatefully and said in a low voice: "That kid's father is a person from Ao Zhongtang, who is overbearing and evil all day long. My conflict with him is not a day or two. ”
Chen Shu couldn't help but look sideways, thinking to himself Since you know that he is a worshipper, you still dare to make trouble with him like this? A middle-aged beautiful woman in her thirties walked into the hall and said with a smile: "Miss Ruoyue has already come up with a topic, all talented people, please write a poem on the topic of catkins." ”
Yuan Xing and others are more amateurs in poetry. But since it's a fun, everyone can't help but have to make up a few words. The other people were all nonsense, but in fact, they mainly looked at Nalan Chengde, and saw that this young man was confident, and wrote on the paper in a hurry:
"The dark red and green leaves are thick, and the curtain hook is light.
Have mercy on him and borrow the power of the east wind. Fly to the ditch for Ping. ”
Everyone praised it, and seeing that Nalan Chengde was so young, they praised it even more. One of them laughed and said, "The poem is well written, but it's a pity that it's too young!"
The surnamed Ban said sarcastically: "Yuan Er, you even brought such a small Nalan brother to this kind of place, you are really good at playing!"
Chen Shu didn't know much about poetry, but after taking a look, he also felt that it was just average, and he remembered Nalan Rongruo's words, "If life is only as first seen".
When it was Chen Shu's turn, he didn't think about participating in this kind of boring competition, waved his hand, and said, "I can't write poetry." ”
The beautiful woman smiled and said, "Ah, just write a few sentences casually?"
Chen Shu shook his head and said lightly: "I can't read." Hearing this, Yuan Hui and the others looked at him for a while, revealing undisguised disdain.
After a while, except for Chen Shu, everyone wrote a few sentences. Most people come to join in the fun, but there are also many well-educated people and literati. Writing it out, it attracted praise from everyone.
The beautiful woman went in for a while, and suddenly came out again, and said with a smile: "Miss Ruoyue already has a favorite candidate, please invite this son to come in and serve tea." Saying that, he was blessed and walked over to Chen Shu's table.
Everyone couldn't help laughing, thinking that they would let such a child come out on top, but they didn't know if that beauty was as beautiful as the legend.
Nalan Chengde's face turned red and he stood up nervously. The beautiful woman rushed forward and pressed him, and said with a smile: "Little boy, your poems are naturally very well written, but you are too young, I am afraid that it will make Lord Zun angry, so let's talk about it in two years." ”
Everyone was stunned, these two sentences were obviously prevarications. But since it's not Nalan, is it the crooked poetry of any of these other people? Yuan Xing and the others were all surprised, looking at each other, not knowing who the beauty had taken a crush on.
Unexpectedly, the beautiful woman waved to Chen Shu and said with a smile: "I invited this son into the inner room to serve tea." ”
Everyone was stunned, and then there was an uproar in unison. Everyone looked at Chen Shu as the only one who didn't write poetry, and couldn't help but scold angrily: "What is it? Are you joking with the masters?"
Everyone sitting here is a well-known figure in the capital, and they are just here today to join in the fun, but if they really want to make a ghost in front of so many people, there is no one to mess with. A few people were about to rush over and beat Chen Shu. Even Yuan Hui and Xie Qiyu looked at Chen Shu coldly.
Chen Shu was also inexplicable, he completely felt that this was a farce, and he didn't know what was going on at all. But if you want to start fighting, he doesn't pay attention to these people together. But at this moment, I suddenly heard someone shouting, "Please stop!"
I saw several big men turn out, and one of them held a token and shook it. Most of the people fell silent suddenly, and a small number of people who didn't know asked in a low voice, and the people next to them said, "Don't you even know the Suo Xiang token?"
Everyone thought that this woman really had Suofu as a backer, although she was still angry in her heart, but she didn't dare to say it again.
The beautiful woman's demeanor suddenly became a little arrogant, and she crossed her waist and shouted: "Miss Ruoyue just likes this son, and the others can disperse!"
Then he urged Chen Shu with a smile, and Yuan Xing smiled and said: "Brother Zheng, it seems that the beauty really likes you, go quickly!
How could Chen Shu believe that there was a beautiful woman who took a fancy to him, and his heart was suddenly very vigilant, secretly thinking that this could be a trap set by the Qing people? But the matter had come to this point, he didn't say much, stood up, concentrated on guard, and followed the beautiful woman in. (To be continued.) )
