"By the way, although Miss Li Ge is the girl in my building, she is still innocent. Until now, not many men have seen her true appearance.
Even among the high-ranking officials in Zhongzhou City, few of them were lucky enough to see her true appearance. If a man can pass our test, it will be enough to prove his talent and ability. At that time, he can be married. "
"That's it." Ci Song nodded.
"A few days ago, the young master from Prime Minister Zhang's family wanted to meet Miss Li Ge, but was declined because of lack of talent. Master Xu, do you want to give it a try?" the matchmaker said with a smile.
"How much money?" Xu Shaocong obviously understood the rules here, so he directly asked about the price of participating in the assessment.
"Hey, look at what you said. Master Xu is a distinguished guest of our Cuiyuan Building. How dare the matchmaker ask you for money?" The matchmaker turned her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Since Master Xu is coming to participate, the matchmaker will do it for free. I recommend it to you. However, this test is not easy. I wonder if Master Xu is confident?"
"It's just for fun, why take it seriously?" Xu Shaocong smiled casually, took out two 100-tael silver notes from his waist and handed them to the matchmaker, saying: "I'll give it a try, but I don't know when the assessment will start? "
"You can do it now." The matchmaker smiled brightly, put the banknote in her pocket, and said: "Since it is poetry and poetry, no outsiders can disturb it, so as not to affect the performance of the two young masters. You two will follow the matchmaker. "
The matchmaker took the two of them directly to the third floor. The space on the third floor was very spacious and elegantly decorated.
After the matchmaker took Xu Shaocong and Ci Song into the third floor, they found that there were already many people inside.
Among them, there were rich young men wearing brocade clothes, some talented men with delicate faces, and some pretty and pretty women.
These women are all young women. They are either holding wine glasses and chatting and laughing with the men next to them;
"Master Xu, please come this way."
The matchmaker took the two of them into a room similar to a study. The decoration inside was also very elegant. Several calligraphy and paintings were hung on the walls. The four treasures of the study were placed on the table. There was also a pot of orchids on the table, which exuded a sense of elegance. With a faint fragrance.
"Miss Li Ge is behind that screen. The two young masters can start to show off their talents. I just hope that the two young masters can understand that this is Cuiyuan Building and don't mess around." The matchmaker pointed to the huge building not far away. Screen, warned the two of them.
"Matchmaker, I understand the rules, so don't worry." Xu Shaocong responded with a smile.
The matchmaker nodded with a smile, and then whispered to the two of them: "If they are ordinary talents, the matchmaker will never bring them here. This is for the sake of Master Xu."
"Thank you so much, matchmaker." After saying that, Xu Shaocong took out another one hundred taels of silver note and handed it to the matchmaker.
The smile on the matchmaker's face became even wider, and then she shouted to the figure behind the screen: "Miss Li Ge, these two are here to accept your test."
She saw the figure behind the screen nodding slightly, then turned around and left the room.
Ci Song and Xu Shaocong looked at each other, then walked forward and saw that in front of the screen was a desk with a stack of rice paper, a writing brush, and an inkstone on it.
Behind the screen, there is a beauty couch, and a woman is sitting on the beauty couch. The gauze curtain is hung down, and her appearance cannot be seen clearly, but the skin exposed is like gelatin.
Ci Song's attention was on the desk, and he saw two words written on the rice paper at the top, "Li Ge". The font was chic and elegant, definitely not from the world. When Ci Song saw this, he couldn't help but admire it. , "Good words!"
Xu Shaocong on the side, his eyes are all on the shadow behind the screen. This shadow alone can be called graceful, and this woman can be called "absolutely beautiful".
Ci Song took a deep breath, then turned to look at Xu Shaocong, and said: "Shaocong, come on, show it off."
"What to show?" Xu Shaocong turned to look at Ci Song and asked curiously.
"Show your talent, so you can see Miss Li Ge's face."
Ci Song sat on a chair nearby, picked up a teapot, opened the lid and smelled it, confirming that it was tea, and poured himself a cup.
Xu Shaocong on the side was extremely calm. He waved his hand and said, "You don't know me yet? I don't have any talent. Apart from my ability in archery, I don't know any other martial arts."
"Then why did you spend so much money here?" Ci Song's face was full of confusion.
Xu Shaocong said disapprovingly: "It's not much, it's only three hundred taels of silver. Being able to see the shadow of Miss Li Ge here is already worth it."
Hearing this, Ci Song looked at Xu Shaocong a little strangely, because his behavior reminded him of a person, no, a sheep.
That's right, it's "Boiling Sheep".
Ci Song coughed twice and said: "Ahem, I said Shaocong, three hundred taels of silver, you just spent it like this, don't you feel bad?"
"I don't feel bad."
"You're awesome." Ci Song gave Xu Shaocong a thumbs up, then drank all the tea in the cup, and then said: "Shaocong, let's do this. If you have so much money, you can come to my room. , I also put on the whole screen, and then put on a wig and became a woman. I’ll give you a little less. If you look at me once, how about giving me two hundred taels?”
After hearing Ci Song's answer, Xu Shaocong was stunned. He really didn't expect that Ci Song would say such shocking words, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.
"Well, well, Ci Song, you know that I, I, am not as good as Long Yang." Xu Shaocong said with some embarrassment.
"I didn't say you were Duanxiu. What I meant was that you look like you are being taken advantage of now." Ci Song looked at Xu Shaocong and couldn't help but shook his head.
"What does it mean to be taken advantage of?" Xu Shaocong asked puzzledly.
"That's Xu Shaocong."
Xu Shaocong was stunned, not expecting Ci Song to say this, but he soon understood that Ci Song wanted to persuade him not to waste money.
"Hey, then who makes us have no talent?" Xu Shaocong said calmly. For him, three hundred taels of silver is not much, and it is already worth it to see the shadow of Miss Li Ge.
"Forget it, for the sake of your treat this time, how about I help you?" With that said, Ci Song stood up and came to the desk.
"Master Ci, you don't know as many words as I do, right? Besides, do you really know how to write?" Xu Shaocong looked at Ci Song questioningly.
"Then how about I pretend to be a woman and get two hundred taels at a time?"
"Ci Song, I will grind the ink for you and you will write it. I believe in your talent." Xu Shaocong directly picked up the graphite aside and started grinding it on the inkstone.
