As soon as the woman behind the screen finished speaking, the monk in red laughed and said:
"Miss Lan is really a wonderful person. She is so leisurely and elegant. It's okay, I just want to listen to the lady's question!"
Although this red-robed monk comes from a foreign country, he has always prided himself on being intelligent and has read many historical books. He feels that if there is a debate, he will not lose to anyone present.
He sat down behind a coffee table, poured himself a glass of wine, and took a sip, looking quite confident.
"Hmph! I have been familiar with military books since childhood, and I am also proficient in Confucian classics. How can I be compared to these vulgar people? Forget it, I will play with you, general!"
Lin Yuanqiao seemed to be attracted by the graceful figure behind the screen. He didn't complain too much and directly chose a coffee table to sit down on.
The remaining black-faced man Tie Qiu and the city lord's son Gao Hou did not speak and each found a place to sit down.
Liang Yan naturally didn't say much. He sat down alone on a seat, but secretly wondered in his heart: "I wonder what kind of medicine this fellow Taoist Lan is selling in the gourd?"
The voice from behind the screen did not sound again until everyone had sat down: "The little girl has lived in a boudoir since she was a child. She has never met a man outside, and no one knows the little girl's maiden name. I will write a poem today.
First, let’s see which hero can guess my name from this, he will be the destined one for this little girl.”
When the voice behind the screen said the sentence "I have never met a man outside," he paused slightly, seeming a little embarrassed, but then returned to normal, and continued: "There is not only my girlfriend hidden in this poem.
The name also contains my sister’s name. If any hero can guess it, he can stay here later.”
After hearing this, everyone in the room looked at each other and didn't know how to respond. Only Liang Yan had a strange look on his face. This question was simply unnecessary for him, because he had already known it when he sneaked into Lanxin Xiaozhu yesterday.
The names of the two sisters were given. The elder sister used her real name, Lan Chanxi, while the younger sister was called Lan Yunxi.
"Haha, since this is the path drawn by Miss Lan, I, Lin, will accompany you!"
After a moment of silence in the room, it was the arrogant Lin Yuanqiao who was the first to chime in. Although Lan Chanxi's topic was strange, he relied on his literary talent and felt that if he couldn't guess it, then others wouldn't be able to guess it either.
It was impossible to guess, so I pretended to be grand and answered the question directly.
Someone stood up, and the rest of the people also slightly raised their hands towards the screen and said, "Please ask Miss Lin to give the question."
The voice behind the screen only paused briefly before singing:
“The thin bamboo orchid heart becomes more tranquil at night, the clouds form the high platform and the moon forms the building.
The good wind and the moonlight are a passionate night, and I write a beautiful chapter about my lover.
The incense tents are clustered in rows and the graceful ones are pierced with gold needles to worship Chanjuan.
The copper pot fails to announce that the sky is about to dawn, and the melancholy and good times are yet another night."
The voice behind the screen was gentle and graceful, singing this poem, which was even more pleasant to the ears. Although there were many people in the martial arts field, they all listened mesmerizedly.
But after the song ended, everyone frowned slightly. There were so many scenes contained in this poem, and trying to pick out words that might be names would be like guessing.
Everyone looked at me, and I looked at you, and they all thought to themselves: "This Miss Lan family is not testing her literary talent at all, but testing her luck. Does she really want to find a destined person? Anyway, since everyone relies on luck
, why don't I take a guess too."
At this time, the maid in green clothes had already ordered her servants to give the five people pen and ink. The other four people had made up their minds and silently guessed two names in their hearts before writing them on the paper. Only Liang Yanduan
He couldn't sit still, with a strange look on his face.
Among the poems sung by Lan Chanxi, the first four lines clearly describe the scene when he visited Lanxin Xiaozhu at night. Among them, "thin bamboo orchid heart" and "good wind and dim moon" all describe the wind and moon that night.
word.
As for the last four lines, they are written about the Chinese Valentine's Day. "The fragrant tents are clustered together" refers to the meeting of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl to make a round tent in the sky. "The golden needle pierces it" refers to the women on earth who yearn for beauty. This poem refers to the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl in the sky.
, refers to the loving men and women in the world, and there is no need to say more about what they say.
Liang Yan is also a very thoughtful person, so how could he not understand who the "loving man" in this poem refers to?
He looked around for a while and saw that everyone's expressions were not very good, so he knew that they did not know the names of Lan Chanxi's sisters. Although there are indeed three words "Chan", "Yun" and "Xi" hidden in this poem, it must be understood from
Selecting and combining them from these twenty-eight characters is the same as dreaming!
Liang Yan now really feels like when he was studying under Confucius when he was a child, someone leaked the answer in advance, and the examiner himself willingly leaked the answer!
He was silent for a while, and finally wrote on the paper: "Lan Chanxi", "Lan Yunxi".
After a while, a maid came up, hurriedly collected the answer sheets from several people, and handed them into the hands of the woman behind the screen.
The woman behind the screen pretended to look through it for a while, and finally pulled out one of the sheets, handed it to the maid next to her, and whispered something in her ear.
The maid nodded repeatedly, then walked out of the screen slowly and announced to everyone: "The eldest daughter of my family is called Lan Chanxi, and the second daughter is called Lan Yunxi. Of all the people who answered this time, one person answered both correctly.
question."
As she spoke, she unfolded the rice paper in her hand and saw that the signature was written exactly: "Wang Xin".
Naturally, it was impossible for the other four people in the room to guess the names of Sister Lan Chanxi, so when these people heard the maid announce the answer, they already knew that they had guessed wrong. But they never expected that here
There is actually one person who can guess two questions correctly.
"Snapped!"
There was a loud noise, but it was the black-faced man Tie Qiu who smashed the wooden table in front of him into pieces.
"That's too much! How could you have guessed all the names of the two people correctly!" Tie Chou shouted angrily: "Is it possible that your Lan family had already made an internal decision, so you leaked the answer?"
The voice behind the screen said slowly: "This competition is fair and just. The little girl has never met any of you before, so how can she leak it? Since Brother Tie is not satisfied with the result, he might as well leave first.
"
"you!"
Tie Qiu glared at the figure behind the screen, suddenly flicked his sleeves, turned around and walked away.
The remaining three people all had gloomy faces, looked at each other, and all left.
The originally lively room was completely cleared in an instant, leaving only Liang Yan sitting on the seat.
The man and woman were silent for a long time across the screen, and then they heard the voice behind the screen sigh, and stretched out their hands to open the screen, revealing a beautiful, unparalleled, gentle and graceful beauty.
