Chapter 35: The Moon Immortal (2-in-1 Chapter)
In order not to hinder Wan Hong and Yan Qing from chatting, Cao Xiaoning and the three of them left under the pretext of leaving in advance, but did not leave Zangxian Island, but came to the small building of Yuexian.
Fan Xiaoyong stood in front of the building, looked up at the Moon Immortal Tower, and said with emotion: "I have a hunch that the Moon Immortal will stay overnight tonight." ”
His eyes were full of confidence, and he said, "And there is no doubt that this lucky person must be me." ”
There is no other reason, before leaving the main building just now, Fan Xiaoyong cheekily asked Yan Qing for two lines of poetry.
Yuexian likes poetry and songs the most, Fan Xiaoyong likes it, and he has bought poems and verses from some talented people before, but unfortunately he has not been able to get into the eyes of Yuexian. But today is different, Yan Qing is the first talent in Anhai City, with the poems given by Yan Qing, he believes that he will be able to impress the Moon Immortal and win the first place.
"Let's go!"
With a wave of his hand, he took Cao Xiaoning and Xu Sansi and walked inside.
......
The three of them paid a lot of tea fees, and under the leadership of the maidservant, they entered the first floor of the Yuexian Building, which was exquisitely furnished and elegant in style, with more than a dozen pear wood tables scattered and wine, vegetables and fruits on the table.
At this time, there were already many people seated, including rich people in brocade clothes and jade belts, powerful people with extraordinary bearing, and scholars dressed in plain white, with different identities. Their eyes all fell on the curtain not far away.
Behind the curtain, a figure can be faintly seen, holding the piano and playing, the sound of the piano is curling, like the sound of heaven, which is fascinating.
This figure is the Moon Immortal.
Generally, the tea circle of the Qinglou is the Oiran himself as the correction officer, but the Tibetan Immortal Building is different, it is difficult for you to meet the landlord, this is the gimmick of the Tibetan Immortal Island, after all, it is a 'fairy', how can it be so easy to see, otherwise it will not be immortal.
Not only was there no complaint about this, but on the contrary, this feeling of superiority and haze the interest and desire of the guests to conquer, and made them flock to it.
Especially the Moon Fairy, cold and noble, like the bright moon hanging above everyone's heads, it is a pleasure to look at it from afar, which is why for so many years, no one has ever been able to kiss the Moon Fairy Fangze, but she is the most sought after.
Because for the guests, she is really like the Moon Immortal who lives in the Guanghan Palace, and does not eat the fireworks of the world, so it is natural to reject mortals, and most of the guests who come to the Moon Fairy Tower are not hopeful, but just come here to admire the demeanor of the Moon Fairy.
After Fan Xiaoyong and the three of them took their seats, the rest of the guests turned their heads to look at them, and then continued to stare at the curtain, even if they could only see a silhouette, but for them, they still did not want to miss a moment.
And everyone didn't notice that when Cao Xiaoning walked into the banquet, the sound of the piano behind the curtain seemed to pause slightly.
The maid in charge of the correction is the maid of the moon fairy, dressed in tulle, showing exquisite curves, the skin is like condensation, the blow can be broken, the face is spring, the blush is moving, and the beautiful eyes are flowing, showing a soft and coquettish state. The maids are already in such a posture, and they are more than enough to serve as an oiran in an ordinary green building, which shows how amazing the main moon fairy behind the curtain is.
The waitress will let the guests take turns to pair pairs, and the other will play the wine order or draw the wine boxing, so that the atmosphere is just right, and the guests are happy.
During this period, Cao Xiaoning noticed that Fan Xiaoyong had been glaring at the white-clothed scholar opposite, so he asked, "Who is he?"
"It's a dog thief!"
Fan Xiaoyong took a sip of wine and began to introduce the enemy to Cao Xiaoning.
This white-clothed scholar is called Song Yan, a child of the Song family, although the Song family in Anhai City can not be compared with the Fan family, but it is also a big family, this person is mediocre, but he is very good at poetry and songs, dancing and writing, and he looks okay, plus this person knows his daughter's mind best, and is good at doing what he likes, so he has become the most proud person in Tibetan Immortal Island.
On Zangxian Island, whether you can spend the Spring Festival with the landlord depends on whether your demeanor can impress the landlord and make her willing to commit to you. And the landlords' knowledge and vision are extremely high, and it is difficult to make them tempted, so it is lucky to be able to spend the Spring Festival with a fairy.
But Song Yan is known as the 'Nine Immortal King', that is, except for the Moon Immortal, every owner of the other ninth floor has been taken down by him, and he envies everyone.
And there is no doubt that Song Yan wants to be the 'Ten Immortal King', and Yuexian has become Song Yan's last goal, he comes to Yuexian Tower every day, just to be able to come out on top and become the first man in Yuexian in so many years.
It's a pity that Yuexian's vision is extremely high, and Song Yan has been here for a few years, but he has never moved Yuexian and was invited upstairs. It is precisely because of this that Fan Xiaoyong regards Song Yan as his biggest enemy, after all, Song Yan is clever and cunning, and it is difficult to guarantee that he will succeed one day.
When everyone was drunk, the sound of the piano behind the curtain suddenly stopped, and Yuexian slowly spoke: "Spend a full moon tonight, I don't know if you sons, can you have poems to share?"
Her voice is like the tinkling of spring water, as light as a snowflake falling to the ground, and with a cold and noble state, full of ears and gentle and beautiful, like a trickle, flowing through everyone's ears and then flowing into your heart.
Except for Cao Xiaoning, who was leisurely and calm, and Xu Sansi, who was bowing his head and eating, the rest of the people were stunned for a moment, and they seemed to be immersed in this wonderful and pleasant sound and couldn't extricate themselves.
Yuexian is a talented girl, her favorite is poetry and lyrics, whose poetry can impress Yuexian, undoubtedly has the best chance to become her upstairs guest.
"I have!"
A rich kid got up for the first time, everyone knew that Yuexian loved poetry the most, and how could he not prepare poetry and good sentences when he came to hold Yuexian's field, only to see him shake his head and chant: "The fish sinks and the geese go to the end of the world, and I believe that the world is separated from suffering." ”
There was a burst of applause and applause during the banquet, and the rich man looked proud, although he spent money to buy this poem from others, but this did not affect his pride.
I saw him look at the curtain, as if he wanted to see from the silhouette of the shadow whether the moon fairy was moved by himself.
And seeing Yuexian, he said lightly: "Good poetry." ”
The voice is still crisp and pleasant, evocative, but it inevitably seems a little bland, but this rich man is ecstatic, you must know that Yuexian has a very high vision, and it is not easy for her to praise a good word.
"It's just clumsy, the moon fairy praises falsely, and I am deeply frightened. ”
The rich kid bowed to the curtain, but he was secretly happy in his heart, and imagined it, as if he had seen the situation where Yuexian was moved by himself and invited him to go upstairs later.
Next, one by one the guests got up and chanted poems, they all came prepared, and they all sang quatrains, which were no worse than the one of the rich people, which attracted everyone to praise each other, and they could all get the comments and recognition of Yuexian.
Seeing everyone show themselves one after another and get the praise of the Moon Immortal, Fan Xiaoyong couldn't wait, and couldn't wait to immediately shock them with the verses he had asked for from Yan Qing.
But because of the position, before him, it was Cao Xiaoning's turn.
Cao Xiaoning used to compose poems, but it was just a simple limerick, and he couldn't write poems about lovesickness and love.
But he couldn't help but do it, and after a circle of drinking orders, who couldn't say it would be punished, so he looked out the window and said casually: "The moon is big and round tonight, and tonight's sleep is fragrant and sweet." ”
As soon as this verse came out, the audience was silent.
Everyone looked at Cao Xiaoning in amazement, thinking that this can also be called poetry?
Some people couldn't help but laugh, but in order to avoid leaving a bad impression in front of Yue Xian, they forcibly endured it, but the gaze that fell on Cao Xiaoning was unabashedly full of disdain.
That's it?
It's just insulting the field of the Moon Immortal!
Cao Xiaoning completely ignored the eyes of others, he was originally here to accompany Fan Xiaoyong, so it was not uncommon for a moon immortal to be a moon immortal, and from the time he came in, he didn't even look at the curtain.
Behind the curtain, Yue Xian just snorted faintly.
Seeing Yuexian's reaction, the guests were even more arrogant and proud, and just finished chanting the poem by themselves, Yuexian was all commenting and praising it, but for Cao Xiaoning, it was so perfunctory, which showed Yuexian's disappointment.
They finally glanced at Cao Xiaoning, and then stopped paying attention to Cao Xiaoning, with this level of literary talent, they were not even worthy of carrying shoes for Yuexian, and they were not qualified to be their competitors.
After Cao Xiaoning, the next one is Xu Sansi, Xu Sansi is full of poetry books, and it is no problem to write a poem, but it is also decent, and Yuexian just politely said a good poem, that's all.
Behind Xu Sansi was Fan Xiaoyong, I saw him get up with a cup, look at the curtain, and say with an affectionate face: "I will never regret the gradual widening of the belt, and I will make people haggard for Yi." ”
After chanting, he raised his head and drank the wine in the cup, but he was a little sad and sad, which was quite in line with the artistic conception of the poem.
The guests present looked at Fan Xiaoyong one after another, with mixed emotions in their eyes, although they were all vassal and elegant people, they also studied poetry a little, and the poem they just read was really not worth mentioning compared to Fan Xiaoyong, it seems that even if Yuexian will leave someone upstairs tonight, it will not be his turn.
Sure enough, the moon fairy behind the curtain said lightly: "Fan Gongzi's poems are full of emotion, and the emotions between the words are vivid, and they are full of uncomplaining and affectionate, and the little woman admires it." ”
The sadness on Fan Xiaoyong's face was suddenly swept away, replaced by a proud and arrogant, Fang Cai Yuexian's praise of other people's poems was just a polite response, but for his poems, he seriously analyzed and commented, and even more bluntly admired, and he spontaneously gave birth to a kind of pride in his heart tonight.
And those guests also lowered their heads and sighed, they were destined to be out of play tonight.
Cao Xiaoning was not surprised that Fan Xiaoyong's poem overshadowed the audience, although this poem was given to Fan Xiaoyong by Yan Qing in front of Wan Hong, it was not his affection for Wan Hong, and his love was deep and strong.
Fan Xiaoyong sat down and glanced at Song Yan defiantly, expecting to see the frustration on Song Yan's face, but he never thought that Song Yan just chuckled, and his eyes were full of confidence, as if he didn't think that he would lose to Fan Xiaoyong tonight.
Fan Xiaoyong didn't think much about it, he just thought that Song Yan was trying to save face.
The wine order continued, and the next few people were all mediocre, and Yuexian only responded politely, and soon, it was Song Yan's turn.
Song Yan glanced at Fan Xiaoyong, then slowly got up, took a sip of wine, closed his eyes and said: "If life is only as first seen, what is the autumn wind and sad fan, ask what the love of the world is, and teach people ......directly."
He paused, opened his eyes to look at the curtain, and sighed, "Life and death promise." ”
Behind the curtain, Yuexian, who had been sitting still, stood up directly, and this reaction made Fan Xiaoyong's heart chuckle.
During the banquet, the guests were still immersed in the artistic conception of the poem, and the Moon Immortals were still reminiscing, but at this moment, Song Yan continued: "There is no banquet in the world, Moon Fairy Girl, tonight should be the last time to see you." ”
The moon fairy didn't speak, and the maid asked, "Why?"
Song Yan leaned over and lifted the wine jug, poured a glass of wine, and said with a wry smile: "Looking for it, it is cold and lonely, miserable and miserable." It's better to forget each other in the rivers and lakes. ”
After finishing speaking, he raised his head and drank again, looking like he couldn't beg and wanted to give up after being heartbroken. Behind the curtain, Yue Xian's figure was crooked, looking like he couldn't accept Song Yan's farewell and was about to faint.
"This traitor!"
Fan Xiaoyong scolded in his heart, he didn't expect that the poems prepared by Song Yan would be better than himself, nor did he expect that Song Yan would come to capture the old man and take retreat as advance, which is really cunning and hateful, and shameless!
The most important thing is that the moon fairy seems to be really moved by him!
Yuexian was silent for a long time, and said: "Song Gongzi's poems are the most I have seen in my life, and they can be described as quatrains for the ages. In addition, please rest assured that Song Gongzi will gain something tonight. ”
As soon as these words came out, the hearts of all the guests present fell to the bottom.
The three words "gained" have been hinted at very obviously, it seems that if everyone can see the flower of the moon fairy but can't touch it, it will be picked tonight!
Fan Xiaoyong's heart was dripping blood, and he couldn't wait to rush up and beat Song Yan angrily, this beast was scheming, step by step, and he deceived Yuexian in this way, it was so hateful!
Then Song was waiting. ”
Song Yan arched his hand, on the surface, he still looked like he hadn't recovered from his sadness and frustration, but his heart was happy, after so many years, he finally got what he wanted tonight.
He looked back at Fan Xiaoyong, his eyes were full of provocation and banter, and he looked like a winner, and Fan Xiaoyong couldn't wait to turn over the table.
"I'm a little tired, so I'll retire first, and you guys drink slowly. ”
Yuexian blessed her body, and then left the inner hall and went upstairs, followed by the maid.
Everyone watched the figure of the moon fairy disappear behind the curtain, and they all drank their heads, and they could see the loss on each other's faces.
Generally speaking, the landlord went upstairs, if there is no eye-catching guest, he will let the maid send the guest, if there is a favorite guest, he will send a personal maid down to invite him upstairs, but Yuexian is different from others, over the years, he has never invited any guest upstairs, everyone is accustomed to this, after all, everyone can't eat anyway, and they don't feel anything.
But tonight is obviously different, judging from Yuexian's words and actions just now, presumably the maid who will be waiting for the meeting should announce that she will go upstairs, and this so-and-so is undoubtedly Song Yan.
They all looked at Song Yan, their eyes full of envy, but when the situation of Song Yan tasting Yuexian Zhu's lips appeared in their minds, envy turned into deep hatred. Among them, Fan Xiaoyong is the worst, he stares at Song Yan, if his gaze can turn into a sword, Song Yan is already full of holes at this moment.
Song Yan didn't realize it, taking everyone's eyes as his own glory, he drank leisurely, smiled, and waited for the maid to announce the following.
A moment later, the maid who followed Yuexian upstairs really went downstairs.
Song Yan put down the wine glass, straightened his clothes, and seemed to be ready to get up and go upstairs.
Everyone at the table looked at him.
But, could it really be him?
I saw the maid smiling Yan Yan, looking around at everyone, and said coquettishly: "Yuexian asked Cao Gongzi to go upstairs to talk." ”
