Chapter 70: Meeting the Difficulties

(Thanks: moshaog, Coke with some ice, I have thoughts about you, Magical Golden Beetle, 100 Possibilities, A Liang 01, Bu Nian Fu Sheng sama, Book Friends 5955156, Infinite Holy and other brothers’ rewards and votes.)

Chu Xiangxiang's appearance is nothing less than a disaster for the remaining brothels that have not yet performed. There was Ai Zhenzhen in the front, and Chu Xiangxiang in the back. The limelight has been stolen by them. For those who are here tonight

For more than 100,000 people, the oiran competition can actually be said to have been settled, and the oiran must be born among the three of Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan Ai Zhenzhen. This even affects the participating brothels.

Their hearts are as clear as a mirror.

In view of the fact that before Chu Xiangxiang, several brothel red cards had abnormal performance due to excessive pressure, instead of risking not only not becoming famous but also losing their value to participate in the show, it would be better to give up the appearance wisely. In this case, give up

Going out on the stage is not only a wise way to protect yourself, but also a humble demeanor that acknowledges the strength of your opponent, which will actually give you extra points.

As a result, the three brothels that were supposed to appear in the 1345th place reached a consensus and submitted a request to the conference to give up their participation. This kind of thing has happened in all previous Oiran competitions, and it is not a big surprise. The judges

On the contrary, Tuan thought that their giving up was excusable. After all, the pearls and jade were in front of them, and it would be better to hide their humiliation than to show off their ugliness.

The common people also expressed their understanding. After watching the high-level skills, people only looked forward to seeing the final result of who the oiran would be, and no longer had any expectations for the red cards of the following brothels.

However, when the Wanhua Building where Chu Xiangxiang was located left the floating platform and returned to its original parking place, an inconspicuous flower boat with only a few red lanterns slowly appeared at the small pier on the side of the floating platform.

At this time, everyone realized that there was another brothel that had not given up the competition and was actually ready to take part.

"...Which family's flower boat is this? Is it interesting that you have to compete in the competition at this time? Isn't it obvious that you are being used as cannon fodder?"

"It seems to be Wangyuelou's boat. Wangyuelou has been closed for half a month recently. I thought they had gone bankrupt, but unexpectedly they still came to participate in the Oiran Competition. But under this situation, it may be difficult to change the established pattern."

"Isn't it just hard to change? It's simply hard to shake, okay? Although Xie Yingying has some reputation and excellent singing and dancing skills, how can she compete with Chu Xiangxiang and Gu Panpan tonight? They are not on the same level at all.

.This has delayed the birth of the oiran. Damn it.”

"You can't say that. Since Wangyuelou dares to persist in participating, it means that they are well prepared. To take a step back, this courage alone can be commended. How can we say that they are wasting time?"

"Hey, don't be so stubborn. You think so highly of them, how about we bet five taels of silver? How about paying ten to one? I'll give you fifty taels if they win the oiran. If they don't win, just give me five taels."

"Bah, you know how to take advantage. I'm just saying it's fair, but you want to make money from me. If you want to bet with others, I won't bet. It may seem like I'm making a profit, but in fact I have no chance of winning. If

So I will just give you five taels of silver, and you will burst into tears of gratitude."

"Hahaha, you also know that you will lose. Just look at it, you will probably make a fool of yourself."

While everyone in the audience was talking about it, the emcee Zhao Zimo on the stage had already started to speak.

"The next contestant is Ms. Xie Yingying of Wangyue Tower. Well... considering that Peach Blossom Pavilion, Lanzhi Garden, and Mingyue Tower have all withdrawn from the competition, Wangyue Tower is the last one of this competition. I hope everyone in Wangyue Tower can give this year's Oiran a warm welcome.

The competition has come to a successful conclusion. Welcome!”

As he finished speaking, he saw a large group of women lining up on the bow of the red boat at Wangyue Tower and starting to walk along the wide springboard to the floating platform. Some of these people were carrying bundles of curtains, some were carrying boxes and cages, and some were

They were carrying baskets, some were holding vases, and some were carrying screens. In short, it looked like they were moving.

The audience in the audience was also confused for a while.

"What are you doing? What is Wangyue Tower doing? Isn't it a performance? How did you get so many things? Are you setting up a stall to sell goods?"

"Yeah, are you running away to beg for food? There are so many people cheering here, do they all want to be oiran? I just said it's not worth watching. The most fearful thing about melon seeds is that the last one will be bad. Sure enough, this oiran competition ended in

Something will happen at the last moment."

"..."

Zhao Zimo was also very surprised, staring dumbfounded at a group of people from Wangyue Tower walking towards the floating platform. Xie Danhong walked forward quickly holding a small brocade box, walked up to Zhao Zimo and bowed.

"Thank you, Mom, what are you doing?" Zhao Zimo asked with a frown.

Xie Danhong hurriedly came forward and said a few words to Zhao Zimo quickly. Zhao Zimo frowned and stroked his beard and said: "I'm afraid I need to ask the judges for their opinions. How about this? I'll ask for you. If you allow it, I can do it."

You continue. If you don’t allow it, there’s nothing I can do.”

Xie Danhong thanked him and said, "Thank you very much, Mr. Zhao. Please give me a few kind words."

Zhao Zimo sighed, turned around and walked from the pontoon on the south side to the small pontoon where the judges' bench was. Everyone in the judges' bench was also surprised. Seeing Zhao Zimo coming, several old men asked in unison: "Where is Wangyue Tower?"

What are you going to do? Why haven't you started yet?"

Zhao Zimo bowed and smiled and said: "My lords and gentlemen, there is something here that requires your approval. Wangyuelou's mother just told me that they need to decorate the stage and put in some background facilities of their own. In addition, they will do this today.

The evening performance is a play, which probably lasts about half an hour. It is a bit long. Hmm... The gentlemen of the jury don't know if you can allow them to do this. If allowed, they will be given time to arrange and perform. If not, they will be given time to arrange and perform.

I will ask them to change the program, or directly disqualify them from appearing. Please make your decision."

"What tricks are you doing? What kind of play are you running here? It will take half an hour? No, no, no, it's just nonsense!"

Someone immediately objected, and several judges followed closely. Their mood was actually similar to that of the people in the audience. There was no need for the following families to appear. Wangyue Tower was ignorant of current affairs, and it was just a waste of time.

"Who said that plays cannot be entered into the competition? There seems to be no such rule in the Oiran Competition, right?" Fang Dunru asked aloud.

"There is no such rule. But no one has ever done this. And if it takes half an hour, it does exceed the prescribed time. Basically, each family will not exceed the time of one stick of incense. If it takes half an hour, wouldn't fifteen brothels

Until tomorrow morning?" Huang Lin said solemnly.

Fang Dunru shook his head and said: "I don't think so. Since it is a competition, the time limit is a bit inappropriate. But since the competition has this stipulation, there is nothing wrong with it. However, the last three companies have given up participating. In this way, there is actually plenty of time.

These three families plus Wangyue Tower’s own incense burning time are one hour. They only occupy half an hour, and there is no additional extension. Master Yan, what do you think?"

Yan Zhengsu, the prefect of Hangzhou, is also a member of the judging panel. He is the chief official of Hangzhou and represents the official participation. However, he does not take the leading opinion in the judging panel, and he will not interfere with other people in some previous judgments.

This is also his attitude of respecting the many non-official people in the judging panel. But when Fang Dunru asked about his own opinions, Yan Zhengshen did have his own ideas.

"Well... there's nothing to worry about. The Oiran Competition is a grand event for the people to enjoy together. In Yan's view, who wins the Oiran is actually secondary. The most important thing is to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival together.

, the officials and the people share the joy, promote the name of Hangzhou's prosperity, and reflect the positive attitude of the people of Hangzhou city to live a prosperous and stable life. Let Yan say that as long as it meets the above purposes, anything can be done. Fang Shanchang just said, time

In fact, it will not delay the timeout, and since Wangyue Tower behaves like this, it is obviously well prepared. However, Yan does not want the play they prepared to be forced to give up because of these irrelevant things."

Several judges nodded in approval. Although Yan Zhengsheng is actually very old-fashioned and not interested in these fancy oiran competitions, his words are the attitude he should have as a parent official in Hangzhou. Whether he likes it or not

, as long as it is beneficial to Hangzhou, he will not reject it.

"Let's see, Grand Scholar is the chief and the most respected person here. Grand Scholar Yuan has to come up with an idea. Otherwise, it would be a waste of time for everyone to discuss it. So many people are waiting." Tang Yu said solemnly.

road.

Everyone nodded and said, "What I'm saying is, Grand Scholar Yuan, please come up with an idea."

Yuan Xiandao stroked his beard and smiled and said: "I don't dare to have a talk. I only have one thing to share with you. I have a poem here, you can pass it on and read it."

Yuan Xiandao reached out and took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Tang Yu who was beside him. After taking a look, Tang Yu smiled and said, "I remember this poem, so let's show it to others."

The piece of paper with a poem written on it quickly circled around the judges' seat and returned to Yuan Xiandao's hand. Everyone knew the poem and were amazed.

"How do you write the song "One Cut Plum Blossom"?" Yuan Xiandao said with a smile.

Fang Dunru said in a deep voice: "This should be one of the rare masterpieces in recent years. Who wrote this? Someone who wrote such wonderful words must be a famous person, right? Could it be a new work by the great scholar Yuan?"

Yuan Xiandao laughed and said: "I can't write such a poem that is so delicate to the core. As for the exquisiteness of this poem, I can't even ask myself. Forget it, I won't play riddles anymore. This poem is written by Xie Yingying from Wangyue Tower.

Made during the preliminaries."

"What?"

"How can it be?"

Several judges, including Fang Dunru, Yan Zhengsun and others, were surprised.

"If it's true, there were people like Master Tang, Master Huang and others who were present at that time. How dare I say nonsense? To be honest, I was doubtful at first, but Xie Yingying admitted that it was her own words. Looking at the handwriting of the first poem, I said,

But it also seems to be written by a woman. I think she should not lie. So based on this poem, do we still need to discuss whether Wangyue Tower should be played? I don’t know what you think, anyway, I am looking forward to that Xie Yingying

She promised me her performance, and a new song was announced today."

"oh!"

No one has any objection. With this poem, Xie Yingying is certainly worth looking forward to. And if this poem is really written by her, then this Xie Yingying is not only a brothel girl, but a talented woman. What a brothel girl said Among all the skills, literary talent is the most valued by celebrities and is the most difficult to possess. You can learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and dance skills can be practiced hard, but literary talent is not something you can practice hard, it is a kind of Things that cannot be seen or touched.

A brothel girl who can write good poems and lyrics can meet the highest enjoyment of spiritual and physical communication that men expect from dating them. This kind of woman is also the most popular in the brothel.
