"Is this Yan Ran'er Lu Shikui's mistress?"
Zhao Mengqi was a little surprised.
"It doesn't count." Gu Qing sorted out the information in his mind, "These days, Lu Shikui runs to Jinxiu Tower every day. He is obsessed with Yan Ran'er and claims to be included in the side room, but Yan Ran'er seems to be unfazed. move."
Oh, it turns out that I am spending money to pick up girls.
Unexpectedly, this Lu Shikui actually has the arrogance of a rich man with a smile, and he has quite a lot in common with Wu Sangui, who was so angry that he turned into a beauty.
Compared with these two, Mr. Wang's "Night of Missing You" is still a little less interesting, and he still needs to urge his father to work harder.
I just don’t know if there’s a trick like “the squire returns everything in full”…
Zhao Mengqi muttered in his heart, and then turned his eyes to the stage.
The evaluation of the flower list is based on talent, beauty, artistry, and "comprehensive quality." However, time is limited and it must be ornamental, so there are trade-offs.
The thing that can best demonstrate one's qualities on stage is dance, which is intuitive, comprehensive, and popular.
So the first part is the dance performance, and each line starts with less than one stick of incense.
Most of the people will be eliminated in this stage, and only six people can advance to the next round of competition.
At this time, the second performer has already appeared on the stage and started dancing to the accompaniment of music.
This is also a horn performer from Lin'an named Ji Ni, who performs sword dance.
As the so-called "female performer wears male costume", Ji Ni wears a military uniform and armor made of five-color silk. She dances colorfully and gracefully, and the soft sword in her hand is even more dazzling.
She was really beautiful, but Zhao Mengqi always felt that she was too soft and coquettish, but not heroic at all.
It's not that he thinks there's anything wrong with using martial arts to dance. In fact, he still admires Du Fu's poem, "In the past there was a beautiful woman named Gongsun, who moved all directions with her sword."
Although Zhao Mengqi doesn't like it, many other men do. Who makes most gentry "weak"?
Ji Ni was not as stunning as Yan Ran'er, but she still received a lot of praise and praise. After dancing, a lot of silk flowers were spread on the stage, not as many as Yan Ran'er's, about three or four hundred.
Originally, there were three grades of silk flowers, and the lowest one, a purple flower, was not cheap at all. If you had to check the box, it would be enough for several times.
But Lu Shikui's coquettish behavior made many people feel that they couldn't even get silver flowers, so most of the people who voted for them were gold flowers.
Ji Ni held the sword with one hand and wiped the non-existent sweat on her forehead with the other hand, and then thanked her softly, "I'm sorry for showing my shame. Thank you all for your kindness. In fact, I'm very good at dancing and singing. I hope I have the opportunity to perform for everyone."
This woman knows how to canvass votes!
If you want to see her dancing, why don't you support her to advance to the next round first?
Sure enough, there was another wave of flower-throwing craze in the audience, adding one to two hundred golden flowers for her.
Ji Ni left the stage with satisfaction.
I don’t know whether it was the pressure from the first two, or whether it was because my strength didn’t allow it, but the subsequent performance was lackluster.
Although more than a dozen companies showed their special skills, they did not arouse much enthusiasm. Fortunately, they each had some fans, and they all gained some money.
Until the moon reached the treetops, the nineteen performers had finished their performances, leaving only Tang An'an who was the finale.
Tang An'an was already famous all over the world, and before the start of the conference, he had built up enough momentum, and rumors that he would definitely win the championship were rampant.
Many people came to this oiran convention just for Tang An'an. Some wanted to see her beautiful face for comfort, and some were curious as to why she dared to challenge the most beloved person of King Yan.
In great anticipation, almost all the audience cheered up and stared at the stage with burning eyes.
The stage is empty, the jade flute sounds first.
The sound of the flute is clear and melodious. When you listen to it, you can't help but feel calm. It washes away the worldly dust. The tune is gentle and the sound is crisp, like the soft call of a red bird.
The sound of Jie drums penetrated the air and spread far away, as if urging something.
The pipa is like rain, noisy, like talking, like whimpering.
Square sound, 秱篥, 箜篌
, cloud board, various musical instruments playing in harmony, as beautiful as fairy music.
Like a dream, Tang Anan appears on the stage, like a fairy, growing lotus flowers every step of the way.
Dancing clear shadow, like in the world?
The flowers on her bun are in full bloom, the skirt around her waist is light and elegant, and her jade-lotus-like ankles are strung with golden bells that tinkle like springs.
The white bare feet are stepping on light and delicate dance steps, moving slowly like blue smoke and turning quickly like a whirlwind.
Like floating clouds in the sky, and like clear water.
Looking at it, it is like the dragon palace fairies playing on the waves, ups and downs.
Lingbo's socks were dusty when he stepped slightly, but who could see his slim body at that time.
The music suddenly disappeared, and the delicate body fell to the ground. Everything stopped, as if the wind and waves had calmed down, and the sky cleared after the rain.
For a long time, there was silence in front of the Immortal Pavilion.
In the judging box, the sound of shooting suddenly sounded.
"What a blessing! A song that brings peace and tranquility!"
Zhou Mi suddenly stood up, waved his red palms, and cheered loudly!
What Tang Anan danced was the Lingbo dance from the Tang Dynasty. The song was called Zui Taiping, also known as Lingbo song.
The audience at the scene also became excited, stood up, clasped their hands and praised, cheering continuously.
"Tang Xingshou deserves to be the best in the world!"
"I'm afraid the dance that Emperor Ming watched in the past was nothing more than this!"
"The music is beautiful, the dance is beautiful, and the people are even more beautiful!"
"The sound lingers in my ears, and I can't get rid of it. The celestial beauty is deeply rooted in my heart, making me mesmerized!"
Zhao Mengqi couldn't help but applaud, "It's really good!"
Zhao Han stared at her big watery eyes, "This sister is so beautiful."
Zhao Hui suppressed her shock and curled her lips, "Oh, that's it?"
Ha, this little girl actually has moments of bitterness and jealousy.
Zhao Mengqi shook his head and smiled, then thought that Tang Anan didn't seem to be trying to forcefully touch the porcelain Wanwan, and he still had the qualifications.
Of course, even if there is a real competition, Tang An'an will definitely lose. After all, Wanwan's "reason" is greater. This alone is enough to kill two Tang An'an instantly.
At this time, Tang Anan stood up, thanked Yingying from all directions, and then stood in the center of the stage, ethereal and quiet.
Immediately, silk flowers flew to the stage like rain, and the servants serving everywhere began to shout rewards one after another.
"Commander Li of Lin'an, I will give you five hundred golden flowers!"
"Guanren Xu from Lin'an will give you a hundred golden flowers!"
"Ren Yushe of Qingyuan Mansion, I will give you two hundred golden flowers!"
"In addition to the King of Jiaxing, I will give you a hundred golden flowers!"
"Executive member Lu from Anji Prefecture is giving three hundred golden flowers as a gift!"...
Counting those in the primary election, at last count, Tang An'an had more than 2,100 golden flowers, more than 5,000 silver flowers, and nearly 2,000 purple flowers.
Not everyone present was rich and powerful, there were also many "middle-class" families who had not dared to join in the fun before. When Tang An'an came out, these people could not restrain their impulses.
Soon, the flower data at the beginning of other rows were also arranged.
Ranked second is Yan Ran'er, with a total of more than 1,600 golden flowers, of which 1,000 were contributed by Lu Shikui alone.
The third was Ji Ni, who got more than 500 golden flowers.
The fourth, fifth and sixth names are similar to each other, and they all have about 200 flowers.
The last one is a bit bleak, with only about fifty golden flowers, but it is still worth more than five thousand dollars, which is a huge sum of money for many people.
In this first session, the rankings were determined by winning votes, which was equivalent to audience selection, and fourteen top performers were eliminated.
The top six will advance to the next stage, where they will choose their own talent show, with those with lower rankings going first.
There are no restrictions on what kind of talent it is and how to display it. As long as you think you are good at it and can complete it within the specified time, it is basically allowed.
Commercial entertainment such as dramas and raps, Baixi and Qiaoyi are okay, as are professional things such as music, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and poetry, because this link mainly relies on judgment and comment.
Although they say this, the leaders of the industry are very proud of themselves, and naturally they will not do things that would jeopardize their status easily.
then,
The sixth place choice will be chosen by the judges and they will write poems on the spot.
The entertainment industry of this era was not as easy to get along with as it was in later generations. It was difficult to gain a foothold in a brothel without some culture. The only option was to earn a fortune in Goulan Washe.
Some famous brothel girls not only have to intensively read the Four Books and Five Classics, historical books and allusions, but also have to be smart and quick in reaction. It is best to write poems and write articles immediately.
When they write poems, they usually add them to the fun at banquets, but no one has the patience to wait for you to slowly come up with your ideas.
Therefore, in terms of knowledge and wit, I am afraid that many scholars cannot compare with them.
The title was carefully chosen. The name only meditated for half a stick of incense before composing a song called "Man Jiang Hong".
Five judges read it and thought it was not very good, but it was done in a hurry and was already very good. They gave it an evaluation of four out of four and one above, and that one was given by Zhang Yi, the only female judge.
The leader did not show any disappointment with the result. Perhaps she had known for a long time that she was just a green leaf.
The fifth person in the line is a master of painting. In just a quarter of an hour, he completed a color painting, and the picture is exactly what Tang An'an dances like.
Zhou Chengji commented, "Both form and meaning are excellent. The dancing posture of Tang Xingshou in the painting is particularly expressive. I think it is excellent."
Zhang Shu nodded, "It is indeed a masterpiece, but it may have been rushed and lacked some agility. It is a pity that it is average."
Later, Zhou Mi, who was more picky, and Wu Ji, who was smiling all the time, both gave the middle grade, while Zhang Yi still gave the top grade.
The fourth player played a piece of piano at the beginning. His skill was very superb, and many audience members cheered.
As for the evaluation, it seems to have been agreed upon, three on top and two on the middle, and the ranking order has not been changed for the time being.
Next, it was Ji Ni's turn, and many people were looking forward to her so-called dancing and singing.
I saw that she had changed her clothes, her sleeves and skirt were all tied up with belts, and she was holding an embroidered ball for Cuju in her hand.
When people say they dance and sing, they actually dance and sing.
While she was singing the short lyrics of the opera, driving her voice, playing with palace tunes, she was using her free-playing skills to jump and kick the ball with various tricks.
A hundred thousand kicks on the toes can solve hundreds of thousands of problems.
The hydrangea kept flowing around her head, shoulders, back, chest, knees, legs, and feet, but never fell. The movements were very pleasing to the eye.
Especially when the hydrangea stopped on the chest and the three balls met, the audience burst into cheers.
"Clothed in four colors, wearing a wide embroidered shirt, tied with a brocade belt, playing an embroidered ball, the ball never leaves his feet, his feet never leave the ball, watching in the courtyard, thousands of people watching."
Zhou Chengji twisted his beard and praised him.
