At dusk, the hastily held oiran competition came to an end. As Yang Ji took action, the leader fell into Gongsun Xi's hands without any suspense. However, Yang Ji felt that it could not be considered cheating, because Gongsun Xi's lead in the battle formation dance was indeed very shocking. If the participating brothels acted in a fair and just manner, She can also win in a competition of competitive spirit.
The dance adapted from "Lanling King's Formation-Breaking Dance" has female warriors replacing warriors. Although it has lost its killing power, it has gained a visual feast of softness with strength and strength with strength. The dancers in warrior uniforms were led by a "female general". They shuttled back and forth, changed formations, and danced swords as Gongsun Xi played "Ambush from Flying Daggers" and the musicians beat the war drums. Their neat steps and consistent movements, The flexible pace makes people feel like they are on the battlefield.
The only drawback is that the indoor venue is small. If it were moved outside and the dancers were expanded to hundreds or even thousands, the scene would be even more spectacular and shocking.
Shen Yue from Lanting Pavilion also performed music as the main part and dance as a supplement. She and her dance partner performed "Mrs. Xiang". It was pretty good, but "Mrs. Xiang" was too quiet and elegant, and couldn't hold down the momentum of "Lanling King Breaking the Formation Dance", which was enthusiastically performed by the audience, and ended up in second place. Xiuyunge, which has the home field advantage, ranked third.
At the end of the game, Yang Ji reunited with Xiao Ying and the other girls and headed home together. The rest of the story ended with Yang Lun being caught.
After returning home and sitting down, Yang Ji felt a little uncomfortable facing his third wife and fifth concubine. He coughed lightly and said to Xiao Ying: "I gave ten gold medals to Gongsun Xi, why didn't you ask? What about a question?"
The purchasing power of money in the Sui Dynasty was very strong, and a dou of fine rice was sold for only 5 qian; and the ten gold medals given by Yang Ji were equivalent to 10,000 guan, which could buy two million dou or two hundred thousand guan at least. stone. Fortunately, it was not a real gift, otherwise, Yang Ji would not be able to part with it.
However, on the way home in the car, Xiao Ying, Liu Rumei, and Pei Shuying didn't even ask, which made him feel a little uneasy and uncomfortable. After all, this is not a small amount, and it is "gifted" to the brothel girls under their noses.
Xiao Ying put down the teacup and chuckled: "Just give it away!"
Yang Ji said: "That's ten thousand guan, which is equivalent to two hundred thousand shi and rice."
"Has Mr. Lang misunderstood our family's financial situation? Ten thousand yuan is just a trivial amount of money. What's so great about it?" Xiao Ying looked at the choked Yang Ji and smiled brightly. He said: "Our family's income can be described as a daily income, but the husband can only make money but not spend it. In addition, the saint keeps giving rewards, so our family is quite rich."
"I plan to ask Xiaolin Temple to donate money and goods worth 500,000 guan. Compared with this amount, the 10,000 guan given by Lang Jun today is nothing."
After hearing this, Yang Ji couldn't help but look at this and that, only to find that everyone had a blank look on his face. In the end, he gave up because he was the person least able to spend money in the family.
Think about it, in this era, apart from clothing, food, housing, transportation, gifts, and simple fun, there is not much money left. And he has been properly arranged since he was a child, and he has no bad habits. Even the little wife was found by the eldest wife, so why should he spend money? Over time, he wouldn't even spend the money.
On the contrary, these women who are responsible for housework, management and maintaining relationships with relatives and friends are more knowledgeable; but the things they have to pay attention to and deal with are too complicated and detailed, so naturally they will have a harder time than him!
However, the roles and responsibilities in the family are different, and the perspectives on problems are also different. In the eyes of Xiao Ying and others, the prosperity of this family is due to Yang Ji's ability, hard work, and dedication. He works countless times harder than women like them who enjoy peace. Every step he takes outside is like walking on thin ice. If he hadn't been working hard at the front, fighting wits and courage with others, where would they be today? Where is the opportunity to spend money? So no matter what Yang Ji does, they will support and trust Yang Ji without hesitation.
Today is no exception.
Although they didn't care about Yang Ji's reward today, Yang Ji had a "guilty conscience" and finally revealed her agreement with Li Dou.
This said, my heart was at ease.
After hearing this, a gentle smile appeared in Xiao Ying's eyes. All the sunset lights in the sky seemed to be reflected in her beautiful eyes. It was so beautiful that she really fell in love with this "petty little man" in front of her.
Which man cares about his woman as much as he does? If he didn't care about her and this family, how could he explain everything to them in detail?
What does a woman want when her husband is like this?

At the same time, more than a dozen followers escorted Yuan Min's carriage out of the east gate of Wenwenfang and walked slowly north along Changxiamen Street.
The carriage arrived at the south bank of Luoshui River, and was about to walk onto the Xinzhong Bridge and head to the north bank. Suddenly, the "idlers" who had just been trying to avoid suddenly took out their repeating crossbows from their large robes, and with the crossbow arrows shattering. With the sharp whistling sound in the sky, the guards around Yuan Min's carriage were shot to the ground. They didn't even make a sound of pain, and fell to the ground with foaming at the mouth after being struck by the arrow.
The horses pulling the cart and the driver on the shaft were "taken care of" by the crossbow arrows. After only running for more than ten steps, they fell to the ground.
The carriage tilted forward. Yuan Min in the carriage accidentally knocked open the front door under the influence of inertia and fell in front of the horse's body. Before he could recover, he only heard bursts of "buzzing" sounds. , more than twenty poisonous arrows shot him together.
Yuan Min's hunched body, about to get up, froze slightly, and fell to the ground again, blood flowing out gurglingly.
A middle-aged man in civilian clothes ran forward and squatted in front of Yuan Min's body. He turned over Yuan Min's body and saw that Yuan Min was foaming at the mouth and his face was black. He was no longer alive, so he waved his hand back. .
When the twenty "idlers" saw the signal, they immediately dropped their crossbows and ran forward quickly.
The middle-aged man looked at Yuan Min's face and confirmed that it was his target. He breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Yuan Min was not dead, so he immediately took out a sharp dagger and struck Yuan Min's neck hard, cutting him in two. Half. Then he stood up again and ran forward with the "idlers" who ran up.
Under the gaze of horrified passers-by, the group of people "plop, plop" jumped into the cold Luoshui, and swam to two fishing boats parked by the river. The fishing boats picked them up, immediately weighed anchor, and quickly swam downstream. Drive away.
"Assassin, there is an assassin!" It was only then that the stunned pedestrians came to their senses and screamed one after another.
Some people who reacted slowly only then started to feel frightened and their bodies were shaking violently. They all sat on the ground with their feet weak and their teeth were chattering. Their minds went blank and they couldn't even speak. Can't even tell.
