Chapter 77 Yiwen Huiwu 3
As soon as Huo Qingqing opened his mouth to answer Lv Xianger's words, a middle-aged man like a master of ceremonies suddenly appeared on the table in the lobby and loudly announced the official start of the party. With all kinds of cheers, Huo Qingqing said a few words, but it didn't reach Lv Xianger's ears, so she had to shut her mouth.
First of all, middle-aged people first briefly introduced the purpose of the party, which is to give all the students in Jiangling Prefecture who are about to participate in the township examination an opportunity to get acquainted with each other. In the past, 'Wuju' has never been so valued as this time. Therefore, this gathering is in the name of 'Wenhuiwu', so that the students have an opportunity to understand 'Wuju'.
Next, the fourth prince came out of the private room and said a few words to the guests standing on the second floor. In the words of the fourth prince, everyone once again recognized that the degree of the first martial arts in the court was unprecedented. Moreover, some sensitive people have heard the ' martial arts people' needed by the court. In addition to the basic martial arts, they must have a 'strategise'. This seems to contain that today's emperor seems to have the intention to expand the territory after suppressing the rebellion.
Guessing this, some people regretted taking the literary examination, and some people were secretly rubbing their hands, waiting to be reused by His Majesty after high school. Lv Hong, who is sitting in the corner, is one of them. Although his expression has not changed much, his eyes are full of excitement and longing.
After talking for nearly half an hour, the fourth prince finished and returned to his room. Along with this, a group of flowery women flocked to the platform in the lobby, singing and dancing in the drum music. It can be seen that they seem to want to use beautiful songs and elegant dance postures to cushion the 'shock' brought to everyone by the fourth prince. But all the people did not want to appreciate the performance on the stage. They were whispering about what the fourth prince had just said.
"Brother Lv Xian, I wish you a bright future first." Feng Wen raised his glass and smiled at Lv Hong. Lv Hong was stunned, and then waved his hand and smiled, "Brother Feng, you praise me too much. Not to mention that my younger brother's ranking in the previous college examination is only medium-sized, even my younger brother himself knows his own ability.
Feng Wen took a deep look at Lv Hong, which made him a little uncomfortable. Then he turned his eyes and smiled again. In the eyes of Lv Xianger next to her, this smile also has a deep meaning. Feng Wen's opening again made Lv Xianger sure that Lv Hong seemed to have something to hide from her: "Brother Lv Xian, although my brother is young, he is very accurate. You are a person who can bend and stretch, and you will definitely make great achievements in the future. No matter how much the virtuous brother denies and hides his clumsiness, it will be clear after the test.
"Brother Feng, why are you so weird tonight?" Lv Hong laughed a few times and changed the topic. And Feng Wen did not mention what he had just said, and casually chatted with Lv Hong about something else.
Lv Xianger wanted to know very much. She had been staring at Lv Hong and wanted to say it. But Lv Hong deliberately avoided Lv Xianger and did not look at her, which made Lv Xianger a little suspicious of Lv Hong's life in Luming Academy. Looking back, since Lv Hong entered Luming Academy, he has never taken the initiative to talk to his family about his affairs in the Academy. Even if Lv Erniang asked, Lv Hong just picked up some happy things and said funny things to them.
"Xiang'er, I really didn't expect the song and dance performance in Jiangling Mansion, which is not worse than those artists in the Beijing Normal School." Huo Qingqing, who was watching the performance on the stage, did not notice Lu Xianger's expression. When she saw that those women had finished singing and dancing, she turned her head and talked to Lv Xianger.
"Real? I think it's okay." Lv Xianger was immediately pulled back by Huo Qingqing. She planned to ask Lv Hong well after going back.
As he spoke, the previous middle-aged man stepped on the stage again and loudly explained the specific content and steps of the next party. However, hearing the words of the middle-aged man, Lv Xianger and Huo Qingqing couldn't help looking at the small sign in their hands and showed a difficult face.
Speaking of which, 'Ji Wen Hui Wu' is also like many parties, showing himself to everyone. However, in this 'literary and martial arts' party, not everyone came to the stage to introduce themselves to the fourth prince. It was drawn by the fourth prince and the officials of Jiangling Mansion, the mountain chiefs and masters of Luming Academy, by drawing lots.
In short, the people who come to the party this time have a small sign in their hands. The material of this brand is ordinary, with exquisite patterns and atmospheric fonts carved on it. At the bottom of the back of the sign, there is also a row of numbers engraved. If you don't look carefully, it really makes people think it's a pattern.
Corresponding to the number on the sign is a few small bamboo sticks. The fourth prince and others drew bamboo sticks in these bamboo tubes. The person with the same number on the bamboo stick and the number of the small sign in the hands of the person present can go to the stage to show what they have learned. Of course, the people present were not all students of Luming College, but also their friends or women. These people are selected, and they can also perform or abstain from the stage.
However, seeing the reaction of the people in the lobby, Lv Xianger was sure that no one would abstain. And compared with the students of Luming College, the little ladies present seemed to be more excited. Some little ladies have even ordered their maids to get guqin, pen and ink and other things.
These actions made Lv Xianger and Huo Qingqing stunned and couldn't understand what was going on. In Lv Xianger's cognition, the atmosphere of the Zhou Dynasty was very open, but anyway, this is also the ancient times when men were superior to women. These women should be reserved no matter what, and they should not be so anxious. In Huo Qingqing's experience, most of the people she came into contact with were very regular servants in the general's mansion. Even if she goes out with the fourth prince, the little ladies who admire him are not so obvious, and she has never seen such a scene.
Therefore, in the lobby of Qingxin Teahouse, Lv Xianger and Huo Qingqing became 'people who have never seen the world'. The two stunning beauties actually showed a stunned look. Such a scene fell into the eyes of some people and became the reason why they couldn't help laughing.
One of these people is the fourth prince who has already found Huo Qingqing. Since Huo Qingsong left Jiangling Mansion without Huo Qingqing, and Huo Qingqing did not return to the station, the fourth prince had already noticed Lv Hong and Lv Xianger's brother and sister. And when his bodyguard found out the news, the fourth prince became more interested in the Lu brothers and sisters.
Tonight, the fourth prince knew that Lv Hong and his sister would bring Huo Qingqing, so he had already let his bodyguards mix in the lobby to find the three people. When the fourth prince appeared, he saw the seat of the three people sitting. After returning to the room, the fourth prince still stood at the window and secretly looked at the three people.
Looking at the appearance of Lv Xianger and Huo Qingqing, the fourth prince smiled at the corners of his mouth and suddenly added a hint of something else. Cloping the window, the fourth prince immediately called his bodyguard and whispered a few words. After hearing this, the bodyguard immediately left the room and came back for about a quarter of an hour.
But when the bodyguard said something in the fourth prince's ear, the fourth prince's eyes narrowed and said inexplicable words: "I didn't expect to encounter such an interesting thing, so let's do nothing and watch the play honestly."
At the same time, Liao Wenbo and his cousin Qingya also stood at the window and looked out. Both of them looked the same as the fourth prince, staring at Lv Xianger's table. And both of them had that faint smile on their faces, which made people unable to see any of their intentions.
It was not until the middle-aged man on the table announced that he was going to start drawing lots that Liao Wenbo closed the window. At this time, Lv Hong's eyes shot at the window like a sharp sword. When Lv Hong withdrew his eyes, he also brought back a trace of doubt.
When he saw the middle-aged man going up to the second floor with a bamboo tube, Lv Hong suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart. Looking at Lv Xianger beside him, Lv Hong suddenly said, "Xiang'er, if you are drawn when you draw lots, what are you going to perform?"
"Me?!" Lv Xianger took a strange look at Lv Hong and said strangely, "Brother, there are so many people in this party. How can you draw me?"
Lv Hong thought so, but he still wanted to know if Lv Xianger was ready, so he laughed: "I'm just saying that in case, in case you really draw, you can't abstain."
"Why can't you abstain?" Lv Xianger had this idea after Lv Hong asked. Anyway, she doesn't intend to be 'watched', just abstain.
Lv Hong shook his head and said, "Xiang'er, sometimes it's not what you think, and things will go as you think."
When Lv Xianger heard Lv Hong's words, her heart was moved. But just as she wanted to ask something more, the middle-aged man came to the stage again, and the lobby calmed down quickly again. Lv Xianger was immediately angry and annoyed. She secretly said that this "literate and martial arts" party must have been angry with her. Otherwise, why can she always ask when she wants to figure out her doubts?
staring at the middle-aged man fiercely, Lv Xianger closed her mouth angrily and listened to him pronounce a number. But when Lv Xianger heard the owner of the number talking, she couldn't help laughing again. In fact, it was not just Lv Xianger. When the man said the first sentence, everyone couldn't help raising the corners of their mouths.
"Big, big, everyone, okay, I, I, yes..." It took half a quarter of an hour for the short and ordinary scholar to say a complete sentence.
As for the middle-aged man standing next to him, he was sweating heavily. While wiping his sweat, he carefully looked at all the rooms of the fourth prince on the second floor. But after he saw something, his expression suddenly calmed down. Helping the stabish scholar read out the poem he wrote and sent him off the stage, the middle-aged man secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the first person to be pulled out made such a joke, it also relaxed the tense atmosphere. After that, several people who came to the stage were not as nervous as before. They successfully showed their talents and happily returned to their seats.
The middle-aged man is also hosting more and more smoothly. With the bamboo stick in his hand, he said easily, "Who will it be below? Please get up if you have the number 252-1..."
