The house leak happened to be raining overnight. I woke up last night and the power went out. I was in bed with a mobile code for a chapter. I only had one and a half chapters on hand. Two chapters work hard.
I have decided to correct my evils and gradually speed up the pace. All the suspensions I have encountered recently should be an inevitable accident...
*********
Yu Hezhong's attitude is mysterious, but looking at his smile, it doesn't seem like he has found some disgraceful secret path. There is a bit of self-satisfaction and bragging in that smile, and there is probably some interesting inside story. Ning Yi thinks about Jin'er and guesses that he has already dragged Yunzhu to Chen Luoyuan's house. If he can see anything interesting, he can talk about it later. He will follow Yu and China to the other side of the forest. .
On the way, Yu Hezhong also smiled and talked to Ning Yi about the outing.
"Today's party, Xiao Ning must have already known that it was an invitation to go to Duke Chen. In fact, there are probably more people who plan to meet the girl who came down from the capital. Oh, I saw those painting boats by the river just now. But a lot of people came here, oh, by the way, is Xiaoning familiar with the oiran leaders in this area of Jiangning?"
"It's not very familiar."
"Heh, I've heard people talk about it in the past few days, that Miss Qilan is good at poetry and prose, has a bookish atmosphere, plays the piano well, and Luo Miaomiao's dance is like a goddess scattered flowers... Today's *** are probably all If you want to come over, you can see a few good performances..."
He said this with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes. Ning Yi nodded with a smile: "Well, there are a lot of people here. If you miss this time, I'm afraid you won't have a chance to see it until the annual oiran competition. They perform their performance, we just watch it."
"Could it be that Xiaoning came here specifically for performances?"
"Otherwise why?"
"Heh." Yu Hezhong looked at him strangely, but then he also showed a clear look and shook his head, "Actually... Among the people who came here this time, those who want to make a blockbuster and make a name for themselves with this article are but A lot, Xiao Ning has also heard that before the girl from the capital came over, someone used this news to confuse and magnify the situation. It was said that Miss Li came to challenge Jiangning's oiran, and later there was a large group of literati Ziqi coaxes, and wants to write good poems to make Jiangning's girls overwhelm the people in the capital. Hey, these things, it's a pity that they are all taken advantage of without knowing it, if it wasn't publicized like this, this party would have been there. I don’t plan to do it, this time I’m afraid it’s just showing up.”
There are many meanings in Yu Hezhong's words, Ning Yi thought about it: "Brother Yu... Looks like you are very familiar with Miss Li?"
"Oh, I'll find out later, I'll sell it, it's definitely a big surprise."
What he said was actually no different from a frank confession. The two continued to walk forward, and Yu Hezhong whispered: "What Cao Guan, Liu Qingdi just now, and many famous literati in Jiangning today, Or those who are nameless but want to be famous. They wrote a few good poems, and they were favored by this conference, and they will definitely be sung by everyone in the future. However, although they also have talents and learning, Zhou, who accompanied Miss Li this time, came here. Bang Yan, Tang Weiyan and others are also quite outstanding in their talents and learning, they will definitely be very exciting in comparison.
Chen Luoyuan's garden is located halfway up the mountain. While talking, the two of them went all the way up, out of this small forest, and their vision widened. This should be the side door or the back door of the garden. It was surrounded by a wall, and a family member was guarding the door. Yu Hezhong went over and said a few words, and sure enough, they were let in without an invitation.
Passing through a small courtyard with a bamboo forest, the two of them reached the front of a small courtyard, Yu Hezhong asked him to wait here, went straight into the courtyard gate, and came out after a while, frowning slightly, as if he had never Find the person you're looking for.
He looked around a little embarrassedly, obviously not familiar with this garden, and then smiled and said a few words to Ning Yi, and then went to a door on the left, just to tell Ning Yi not to walk around, so as not to get lost. not found. Ning Yi sat down on the nearby stone bench, and after a while, he walked around and heard a sound from the courtyard on the right.
"...Thinking too well... Those people are all here to be famous and talk to people politely. If they really want to be aggressive, wouldn't they really shrink here?"
"Always take it."
"But they don't know how to make things difficult for them now, and it's futile to think about it."
"Singing songs, poems, that's all. In the field of folk art, there are teachers and teachers, don't worry, you can test the words. Brother Zhou and Brother Tang's talent and learning can't be trusted. Don't think about it, soldiers come to block, and water comes to cover. "
"These sisters in Jiangning also have amazing arts careers, but the teachers may not be able to compete. Brother Xu, don't be too confident..."
"Haha, Shishi didn't say that... They shouldn't overdo it. It is estimated that these people should shut up after playing and singing two songs."
"It's hard to say, it's the kind of mercenary businessman who is disrupting the situation, how can he know how to measure, maybe that Qilan will challenge the teacher, Luo Miaomiao will challenge again, and the cat and dog will also ask the teacher to give advice, it will be really exhausting. …”
"...In fact, there are not many things to worry about. The poems of Cao Guan, Liu Qingdi, Qi Yukang, etc., are just the same. I met Li Pin in Bianjing last year, and he is no longer in Jiangning. Cao Guan's poems are quite satisfactory, although they are notable, but in the end they can't compare to Bang Yan's. Oh, I heard that they also found Ning Liheng, but I don't know if it is true, this person is low-key, but The poems written, the water tunes, the sapphire case, but the capital can be handed down."
"I'm worried about what he's doing, but after only two or three poems, he was praised as the number one talent in Jiangning. In my opinion, this matter is really exaggerated. Wencai has not been verified, who knows what he is. A person who makes a name for himself."
"Oh, I heard that this person acts in a low-key manner, and he is not very keen on various poetry and literature meetings. I heard that he was famous in the past, but after a few coincidences, not many people doubt it anymore."
"It's not how enthusiastic, then why come here again this time..."
"Who knows, in short, what will he draw at that time, let's move on, who are you afraid of these things? However, it's not good if you keep letting them take the lead, I have a few questions here. , you can take it out and scare away some ignorant people first, so that cats and dogs will not come over to make things difficult..."
The voice over there continued for a while, and then it gradually came over. Hearing them mentioning himself, Ning Yi also found it interesting. He knew that his real talent in poetry and prose was not comparable to these people, and he was not afraid of what these people said about him. After a while, a voice rang from behind.
"Who are you, no outsiders are allowed in here."
Appearing behind her was a petite woman dressed as a maid, frowning to make a vicious look. Ning Yi glanced at her and said, "Someone brought me in."
"If it is not for the person that the lady said in advance, you are not allowed to enter. If the young master has an invitation card and goes the wrong way, please go back to the front with Chunmei."
The maid's attitude was firm, and she immediately wanted to lead Ning Yi away from here. Before Ning Yi came out with the invitation card, someone in the other side of the yard had already walked over, walked out of the courtyard door, and looked here: "Who's here? Eavesdropping here?" Naturally, it was one of the people who had just participated in the discussion.
"Master Tang, this son must have gone to the wrong place. Chunmei is waiting for him to go back to the front."
That young man surnamed Tang frowned: "Is there an invitation? It won't be sneaking over the wall, right..." He probably felt that Ning Yi heard their problems and plans here, so his attitude was a little bad.
Ning Yi pouted, thinking that it was a little unreliable that Yu Hezhong hadn't come over for so long. Just as he was about to take out the invitation card from his body, several figures came over from the courtyard gate, and one of the female voices said, "Ah, wait, Brother Xiaoning, you are here too... Chunmei, this is what I invited here. guests."
The figure that came out of the yard, plus the son named Tang who spoke, there were a total of five. Four men and one woman, the woman is dressed in beautiful spring clothes, aqua blue dress, and her figure is light and elegant. Her long hair is lowered from the back of her head, tied up with two white headbands, and her hair is decorated with two white flowers. Dressing up is neither too cheesy nor too refined, and there is an elegant atmosphere in the simple, obviously it took some thought. She is the girl surnamed Wang who was with Yu Hezhong that day. After the bangs were put down, her forehead was not wide, and her chin was moderate, revealing a little charm. Combined with the men's clothes she had seen that day, In Ning Yi's eyes, there is even a rather amazing feeling.
This girl speaks for Ning Yi. Another identity is naturally the protagonist that everyone wants to see today, the first flower of the capital, Li Shishi.
In Hezhong's mysterious attitude, Ning Yi probably had some guesses, but now that it was confirmed, it still made him think it was a coincidence. Ning Yi has been tested for a long time in the last life, and she has rarely had an amazing look and feel to people. Most of it comes from the radish-headed contrast when she was dressed in men's clothing. Of course, her appearance is naturally excellent, but what makes people feel more relative to her appearance is the combination of elegance and simplicity, and the look and feel that heavy makeup and light makeup are always suitable.
Probably considering that Ning Yi might have entered uninvited, the woman immediately stopped people from speaking with the invitation, establishing the legitimacy of Ning Yi's entry, standing there at this moment, smiling happily, whoever looked at it. All would think that she felt genuine joy at the arrival of this man. The maid, who was about to lead Ning Yi away just now, pursed her lips, gave a weak "Oh", and stood aside. In front, the man surnamed Tang laughed and apologized:
"It turned out that the teacher knew each other. The flood washed the Dragon King Temple, and I am really sorry."
"It's okay." Ning Yi nodded, then looked at Li Shishi, who was walking over with a smile, "I just met Brother Yu outside, and he brought me here, but I don't know where to go at this time." Although the other party didn't ask, But he was definitely curious, and Ning Yi felt that it was necessary to explain.
"It turns out that Big Brother Yu is also here, Chunmei, have you seen Big Brother Yu?"
"He's at Mother Li's place." The maid replied in a low voice.
"Oh, you'll bring him to us later."
"Yes, ma'am."
After a simple conversation, Ning Yi felt a little strange. The maid next to Mrs. Mei seemed to be a little guilty under Li Shishi's questioning. Although he could see it, he couldn't guess the reason. He just went to find Li Shishi in Hezhong, but of course he couldn't find it, but he found Li's mother over there.
Li's mother has some opinions on Hezhong itself. It's not that the other party can't afford the expenses of going to the brothel. Yu Hezhong's family is still good, but compared with other people who interact with Li Shishi, it is naturally far worse. For the sake of knowledge, giving him various preferential treatment is always not a good thing. After some conversation, I heard that he found another "old acquaintance", that's not bad, Li's mother didn't know how to turn her face, but she was holding him there, and then she told the maid Chunmei to hurry up this person. Get it out, which is why Chunmei seems to be in a hurry.
Ning Yi didn't know the reason for this, but the expressions of everyone on the other side were also in their eyes. After he mentioned Hezhong's name, the expressions of the four scholars changed from solemn to slightly disapproving. Obviously, their perception of Hezhong was not very good.
These thoughts flashed through his mind, and the girl in front of the teacher also told the maid to come over to those snacks and fruits, and then took a deep look at Ning Yi, smiled slightly, and said with a smile: "It is inconvenient to make it clear when we met that day, Xiao Ning. Don't blame me, brother." His tone was still as close as the girl next door.
Naturally, there is nothing to be angry about. Ning Yi smiled and said, "I was taken aback."
"Heh." The teacher bowed his head and smiled, then turned around, "Oh, Xiao Ning, let's come and sit together, little sister will introduce you..."
She was talking here, and among the several young masters over there, there was also one person who looked at Li Shishi's expression and waved to this side: "Since you are a friend of Shishi, you are my friend, why not come together and discuss it together. Today’s countermeasures are the right thing to do.”
A few people then walked over to the yard over there. The four men walked in front, still bowing their heads to discuss how to deal with all kinds of challenges today, the teacher walked behind with Ning Yi, and stroked the hair by the ear: "This way Wouldn't it be a bit awkward to meet? The teacher was also taken aback, and Big Brother Yu was real, and he didn't know what to say beforehand." Then he laughed: "What they said about the countermeasures was exaggerated. Although today's gathering is a major event in the literary world, it has nothing to do with Shishi, if Xiao Ning is interested later, he can show his talents, but there is no need to worry about Shishi."
She only said that Ning Yi was that nerd back then, and it was always difficult for him to make achievements in such top literary societies, so she didn't want him to have any burden. Of course, if he really wrote some poems later, he would be unavoidable. To say a few words of praise.
The voice of her voice was heard by the man surnamed Tang who was a little behind, and he turned around and smiled: "Hey, Shishi is wrong, this is not an exaggeration, this time, you are the number one beauty in the capital. His reputation is in jeopardy, and the face of us students in the capital is also in jeopardy, so there is still a need for countermeasures. This son seems to be a local, and he knows it better than us, you can’t lie to him, Master.”
On this side of the yard is a pavilion on the mountainside, with beautiful scenery and a wide field of vision. During the conversation, the three people at the front had already entered the pavilion, sat down at the round table, nodded with a smile, and took the call. One of them said, "Yes, That's right, the party is a small matter, but face is a big deal, even if Cao Guan's gang takes turns taking turns, everyone can't lose the battle."
"The wind is shaky and the water is cold..."
"In short, everyone will face the heroes of Jiangning today, and it will be a story in the literary world in the future."
"What if the most powerful Ning Liheng came, I'll take it."
A few people were laughing and laughing, but they also had a bit of an open-minded celebrity style. While joking, Ning Yi and the teacher had already sat down. The man surnamed Tang, who had just started talking to Ning Yi, estimated that this joke had temporarily eliminated the grudge, and said, "By the way, I haven't introduced it yet, I'll go to Tang Weiyan."
Ning Yi nodded: "Long Yang..." One person on the other side cupped his hands and said, "Xu Dongmo."
"Wen Yang below."
"Next week Bangyan, this little brother is..."
Among them, the oldest and most famous is probably Zhou Bangyan. After he introduced himself, he asked a question, and the teacher next to him said, "This is..."
Ning Yi also bowed his hands: "Ning Liheng."
"Oh, so it's Brother Ning... Let's go first..."
The atmosphere was pleasant and everyone was laughing. Tang Weiyan continued to speak first. Until here, he was stunned for a while. The rest of the people also noticed that something was wrong. After a few seconds, everyone's expressions became a little weird, you Look at me, I look at you, Ning Yi also nodded, and looked at them naturally, sitting beside him, the girl named Shishi looked at him, her lips slightly opened, and her eyes blinked a few times. Blink again.
For a moment, Ning Yi reluctantly spread his hands, he also knew that this would be the case, but he had to introduce it...
