It was not until the sky was getting dark, and when Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu were getting a little impatient, that the main character finally appeared.
The two of them were not disappointed. The world-famous Miss Li was impeccable in terms of appearance, but Qi Xuansu was a bit confused about how to describe her. He could only say that it would not be enough to add one point or subtract one point. It seemed like
The beauty in the painting has fallen into the human world, and her temperament is that of an orchid in an empty valley, isolated from the world.
A beautiful woman can captivate a city with her smile, and captivate a country with her smile again, but that's all.
Qi Xuansu was absent-minded for a moment. In an instant, it seemed as if everything in the flower hall quickly disappeared, and in the end, only the woman in front of him was left, and nothing else.
It wasn't until Zhang Yuelu hit Qi Xuansu's head with a folding fan that Qi Xuansu woke up.
Zhang Yuelu was not unhappy, he just said: "Be careful."
"Of course there is something strange." There was purple energy flowing in Zhang Yuelu's eyes, "This Miss Li actually possesses the best Taoist skills and has good cultivation. She seems to be an alchemist."
Qi Xuansu looked around again.
Everyone in the flower hall has not yet come to their senses. It is obvious that these young masters do not have the cultivation level of Zhang Yuelu. This is reasonable. In addition to talent, qualifications and peace of mind, cultivation level mainly depends on hard work.
These young masters are not short of money, but their talents and qualifications are not necessarily that good, and most of their time is wasted. Although Qi Xuansu does not practice much Qi when he goes out, he spends several hours every day meditating and practicing Qi when he is in Yujing.
Before settling in Yujing, Qi Xuansu practiced very diligently. Even so, due to lack of basic skills, he was only at the Kunlun stage. Therefore, even if these young masters have some cultivation, they are at the Kunlun stage at most, and have not even reached the level.
An innate person.
At the same time, Li Qingnu also noticed Zhang Yuelu, looked at Zhang Yuelu and then looked away.
Then four green turbans brought out a short table, on which was placed an obviously old guqin, and an exquisite incense burner, which produced smoke with a hint of purple. Li Qingnu knelt down and sat on the table.
Afterwards, the face was blurred by the smoke, looming, making it look like it was floating in the dust.
Then I heard a few "Zhengzheng" sounds, and the sound of the piano sounded. At first, it was like big and small beads falling on a jade plate, then it accelerated, like climbing to a peak, and then it was like falling to the bottom of a valley. The sound of the piano became faster and faster, like a strong wind and rain.
, and after another moment, the sound of the piano slowed down, sometimes revealing the meaning of killing, sometimes gentle and gentle.
For a moment, except for Zhang Yuelu, everyone in the flower hall who had just woken up looked intoxicated again.
Qi Xuansu was on guard and was not fooled by the sound of the piano. However, he struggled to resist and could only stick to the mourning platform.
When it comes to music, Zhang Yuelu doesn't understand it at all. She doesn't know that Aunt Li
No matter how skilled my mother is, I can tell that there is a lot of mystery in the sound of the piano.
From this point of view, this Miss Li, at least, has the cultivation level of the return to truth stage. This is interesting. A master of the return to truth stage, even in the Taoist sect, is not an insignificant person. As long as he is willing to endure the years,
At the very least, he can be a Taoist priest of the fourth grade of wine ceremony, but now he is committed to such a romantic place. He must have some agenda.
It seems that this Miss Li is not just a cash cow for the Li family.
At this moment, Li Qingnu's eyes fell on Zhang Yuelu again. It was not that Li Qingnu could see through Zhang Yuelu's falsehood, but that everyone was drunk and I was alone. Among the obsessed people, Zhang Yuelu who acted as if nothing had happened was really
It's too conspicuous.
Zhang Yuelu and Li Qingnu's eyes met, and the purple energy in their eyes became even stronger, almost overflowing from their eye sockets.
Li Qingnu was frightened by Zhang Yuelu's gaze, and the movement of playing the piano in his hand slowed down a beat. The sound of the piano became chaotic, and he could no longer maintain the artistic conception just now. The people in the flower hall suddenly felt as if they were awakening from a big dream, starting from the sound of the piano.
Come back to your senses.
When Miss Li saw this scene, she simply stopped playing the piano and smiled.
This smile will captivate the whole hall again.
Qi Xuansu was finally freed, breathed a long sigh of relief, and whispered: "Isn't it a poetry meeting? Why are you still playing the piano?"
Zhang Yuelu said casually: "It's probably foreplay, it's similar to a storyteller's opening poem."
While he was talking, the poetry meeting officially started. Under normal circumstances, a dozen people are enough for a poetry meeting, so that it can be used for drinking orders or other things. But if it is changed to a scale of more than a hundred people, it will be quite effective.
It doesn't make sense.
However, Li Qingnu's reputation is too great, and there are too many people who come here because of his reputation. In addition, the hotel has to make money and cannot push the guests away, so it has become such a scale. The hotel has already thought about this.
The method is that the people in the first two rows are really qualified to participate in the poetry meeting, and the people in the back can just listen to the music and join the audience. This is also the reason why Li Qingnu played a song first, so that the people in the back row feel that their trip is worthwhile.
No money spent in vain.
However, Qi Xuansu struggled to resist the sound of the piano and felt that he was spending money to find trouble.
As for Zhang Yuelu, she felt a little unlucky, as if she was in conflict with the academy.
During the following poetry meeting, the talents were like peacocks in full bloom, showing off their talents, with Li Qingnu acting as the judge.
Qi Xuansu was not interested in the poetry meeting at all. He felt sleepy after listening to it. He only occasionally observed Li Qingnu. Anyway, everyone's eyes were focused on her.
, and it won't attract attention.
In his opinion, Li Qingnu could not be said to be impatient about this kind of thing, but he was not very enthusiastic about it either. It seemed a bit perfunctory.
This makes sense, Zhang Yuelu should have attracted most of her attention.
When the poetry meeting ended, Li Qingnu hesitated for a moment, looked straight at Zhang Yuelu, and asked, "I wonder what your surname is, this young master?"
In an instant, everyone's eyes followed Li Qingnu's gaze and fell on Zhang Yuelu.
In the midst of many envious and jealous eyes, Zhang Yuelu slowly stood up and gently shook his folding fan: "Without the honor, my surname is Tantai."
Li Qingnu said softly: "It turns out to be Mr. Tantai. I wonder if Mr. Tantai is willing to pay tribute to me?"
As soon as this statement came out, the whole hall was in an uproar.
There are so many people here listening to music, no matter how elegant they pretend to be, but it is basically for the sake of men and women. According to the rules, whether it is a poetry meeting or a church meeting, Li Qingnu will choose one person from the crowd to "narrate it" afterwards.
", that is, stay overnight.
Although staying overnight does not mean that you can have a kiss, and I have not heard of any guest who can be Li Qingnu's guest. But even if you sit there all night, it is still a matter of honor to go out and talk for a long time and hold a candle at night.
It's a good story. Besides, if you can't even spend the night, how can you talk about a happy relationship?
At this time, Miss Li took the initiative to invite Zhang Yuelu, and the others were naturally out of luck.
Zhang Yuelu asked very directly: "Can we two go together?"
These words are a bit ambiguous, especially in the court, it has the meaning of two dragons and one phoenix. Ordinary women are just asking for more money. Most of the top red girls will not accept such requests due to their face.
Unless the guest is extremely powerful. As for the oiran, that is even less likely.
As soon as he finished speaking, a young master said loudly: "It's already a blessing that Miss Li likes you, how can you dare to ask for anything else? Who do you think Miss Li is?"
Zhang Yuelu didn't care and asked instead: "I ask Miss Li, what does it have to do with you? Who are you to Miss Li? Madam?"
This man was slapped by Zhang Yuelu. He didn't know how to reply for a moment, and his face turned red from the pain.
Someone snorted loudly: "Vulgar."
Before Zhang Yuelu could speak, Li Qingnu already smiled and said: "It doesn't matter."
These words were like a bolt from the blue, causing a commotion in the flower hall.
Zhang Yuelu smiled and asked Qi Xuansu to join him.
Li Qingnu lowered his head slightly, indicating to the maid that she did not need to follow, and would personally lead the way.
Zhang Yuelu and Qi Xuansu followed.
After the three people came out of the flower hall, they walked along a corridor to a warm pavilion. When they pushed the door open, there was a carpet brought from the Western Regions on the floor, with cushions on it, and a small table for warming wine and making tea.
There are all kinds of tea utensils on the table, as well as a small copper incense burner.
Li Qingnu asked the two of them to sit down wherever they wanted. She knelt down behind the small table and began to play with the tea sets skillfully.
It was only then that Qi Xuansu was able to observe Li Qingnu up close.
Her dark eyebrows are like willow leaves, her pupils are like stars, and her lips are a line of red, and she is full of charm. To be fair, in terms of appearance alone, Zhang Yuelu is slightly inferior. However, Qi Xuansu feels that Zhang Yuelu is more amiable and lovely.
Zhang Yuelu sniffed the aroma and said, "This is the soothing incense unique to the Li family. Which generation of the Li family is Miss Li?"
"Although my surname is Li, it has not been included in the family tree. If she is really the daughter of the Li family, how could she be engaged in such a lowly industry?" Li Qingnu replied.
Zhang Yuelu said: "How can you say it is a lowly industry?"
Li Qingnu smiled lightly and said: "Making a living by selling laughter and serving people with sex. Isn't it very noble?"
Qi Xuansu said casually: "It depends on who you compare with. After all, the world today laughs at poverty but not at prostitution. If a poetry meeting costs ten thousand Taiping, it naturally deserves the word 'expensive'."
The two women turned to look at Qi Xuansu at the same time.
Qi Xuansu felt a little uncomfortable and coughed dryly: "I just said it casually."
Zhang Yuelu was so used to it that he didn't even need to sigh helplessly.
Li Qingnu looked down upon Qi Xuansu a little, and said lightly: "Does this young master only see money?"
Qi Xuansu said: "It seems that Miss Li has never experienced the hard life of having no money. As long as she lives a few years, I guarantee that Miss Li will be like me. Of course, the premise is that Miss Li does not have this level of cultivation."
Li Qingnu did not get angry, but said: "Actually, I have experienced poor days. My father was convicted, my mother died of illness, my family property was confiscated, and I lived on the street."
Qi Xuansu did not refute.
Zhang Yuelu shook the folding fan and said: "Why are you talking about these things? Miss Li kindly invited us over. Of course she wants to talk about some romantic things."
Li Qingnu was silent for a moment and then took the initiative to say: "Master Tantai possesses the superior skills of the Taoist sect. He should be at the stage of returning to his true state. He is also at such an age, so he shouldn't be unknown."
Zhang Yuelu said: "Tao Sect Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, my Taoist skills mean nothing. Besides, although Miss Li is famous, I don't know that Miss Li also has extraordinary cultivation."
