Go back to the Song Dynasty as a broker

In the Lotus Canopy, round after round of contestants performed on the stage and told about their past experiences. Thousands of spectators ate popcorn and stared intently at the stage, still enjoying it.

The first issue of "I'm Waiting for You in Tokyo" is still in full swing. After several groups of opera geisha came on stage, the first dance group finally ushered in. It was Jia Luo and her partner. Wearing gold, the two danced lively and unrestrainedly, twisting their slender waists to the passionate Indian music.

The enthusiasm of the audience was instantly ignited, and their bodies were swaying from side to side in excitement, wishing they could stand up and dance along.

Because of "Mulan", Jia Luo's support group is the largest except for the Siqing Lake support group, with more than 100 people.They held Galo's portrait and name tags, shook rattles, swayed their bodies and shouted wildly.

"Gara! Galo..."

As a dance judge, Pu Ji naturally paid great attention to the dancers. She glanced back at Jia Luo's crazy support team, smiled disdainfully, and mocked softly, "The reason why the geisha in the market are not popular is because they don't study their skills well. reputation."

This sentence clearly entered the ears of all the judges. Who didn't know that she was using Jia Luo's excuse to insinuate Si Qinghu?

Si Qinghu only smiled lightly, without saying a word.

After the performance, Jia Luo and his partner stood on the stage, waiting humbly for the comments.

Although Park Ji is not optimistic about Jia Luo's fan support, she is a judge and should be objective and fair when dealing with art.After looking at the two contestants for a while, he said coldly: "Dancing and music are very refreshing, and people are very energetic. The movements also show flexibility, and they have the courage to challenge difficult challenges, especially the red-clothed contestants. But, if you can It’s good to spend the mind of studying fame on skills. My requirements are stricter, and you can enter the second class at most!”

Jia Luo's heart fell into the abyss, and he was very shocked, but he still saluted: "Thank you, Teacher Park."

Si Qinghu and the other three judges didn't say a word, tacit understanding.

Every contestant has his own support team. This is the draft rule. Each member of the support team has one point of voting rights. According to Park Ji, she has denied the entire audience voting rules, and the audience cannot participate. How many people are there? Will buy tickets to watch?

In the end, because Park Ji is a dance instructor with professional aesthetics, and the rest of the instructors are laymen, so respecting her meaning, Jia Luo only entered the second class, and his partner entered the third class.

Some audience members became restless, and heard someone scolding: "What kind of judges, Jia Luo can't get the first prize even if he dances so well!"

"Then no one will be able to take the first place in the future!"

The audience scolded, and Pu Ji smiled disdainfully.She is very confident in her dancing skills and vision, and is never afraid of doubts.

After the whole night, in one and a half hours, more than 20 contestants appeared on the stage, and two opera contestants entered the first-class group.When the contestants and spectators left the arena, the judges were still sitting together to discuss.

Jiaofang knew that looking at the list of groups, the first and second ranks were all female geisha. Of the ten male geisha who appeared on stage tonight, only two entered the third rank, and the rest were in the fourth rank. He couldn't help frowning. It's not right to go on like this!

"Hey, those female contestants are too good, crowding out the male contestants! In my opinion, if the standards for male geisha are not properly lowered, otherwise all male geisha will be eliminated in the end!"

Si Qinghu, Pu Ji, and Aunt Ruyi all stared at the man in the blue official robe and hood, as if they were looking at some strange species.

Pu Ji is an official, although everyone knows that she is an official of the Jiaofang Division, but she has an upright temperament and has always dared to speak out. She immediately mocked: "The adults who just scored were also involved. They are all fair and just, even if they are all eliminated. They are not skilled!"

Si Qinghu also said: "If the standard is lowered for them, it will be unfair to other highly skilled female geisha. We all know that adults do this, and Qinghu thinks it is inappropriate!"

Aunt Ruyi: "That's right. Looking at the rules of this talent show, I don't seem to have a rule on how many male geisha and how many female geisha are required."

We all know that adults have nothing to say when they are bullied, and they are obedient and do not dare to mention this again!

The draft went on for three consecutive nights, and all the contestants showed off their skills.

The tickets bought by the [-] spectators are also valid for three nights, and they can take the tickets to a bookstore on the second day to vote for their favorite contestants.

The contestants will draw lots in private and group into six groups for opera and four groups for dance. They will rehearse for five days and then proceed to the knockout round.

After the third night of the draft, all the audience dispersed.

In the yard behind the lotus shed, several lanterns were hung in the corridor, and the geisha who had just stepped down from the stage came and went, making hip-hop sounds from time to time.

Si Qinghu was in the changing room, surrounded by a group of young girls asking for advice.

It was freezing cold, and they sat in front of a basin of charcoal fire, warming themselves up and talking happily.

Suddenly, Aunt Yu stepped into the room, looked at Si Qinghu, and squeezed out an embarrassed but flattering smile.

"Qinghu, can we have a chat?"

On the promenade in the backyard, Si Qinghu and Aunt Yu stood under the lantern.

"Aunt Yu, if you have anything to say, why don't you just say it?"

Aunt Yu looked at Si Qinghu, a woman she had grown up with, who had always been desolate, thinking that according to her stubborn nature, her reputation would gradually decline.But now she has become the most famous and most expensive geisha in Bianjing Square, and she has become a tutor of a new art—opera.

Also, a long time ago, a handsome and tall man, who seemed to be the guard of some high-ranking official, came to her to inquire about Si Qinghu's life experience. Si Qinghu was probably the child of some high-ranking official.

The way she looked at Si Qinghu was a little more reverent than flattery.

"Qinghu, it used to be Aunt Yu's, isn't it, you just don't remember the villain's mistakes, please forgive me!"

"Qinghu has long been worried about the past, and if I hadn't been forced by Aunt Yu, how could I have made up my mind to leave, and I wouldn't have cooperated with Shiro to do something like this."

Speaking of "Silang", Aunt Yu clearly noticed that Si Qinghu's lips were slightly curled up, and her eyes were tender, so she couldn't help but doubt her relationship with Xiao Silang.

But these are not important to her.

Turning to talk about business, "You just don't care about it."

Looking around, there was no one else, so Aunt Yu quickly stuffed an exquisite small gift box into Si Qinghu's hands, "This is a piece of jade left by your grandma when she was alive. Auntie gave it to you, so that you can remember it .”

Si Qinghu quickly returned the box to Aunt Yu, "Aunt Yu, what is the meaning of this, this is the backstage of the draft, if people see it, what will others think of me?"

This is the place where the contestants put on makeup and change clothes. All the contestants walked by. Aunt Yu had four geishas who were also contestants. If she was seen by others, she was accused of taking bribes. How could she clear it up?

Besides, Grandma Si's relics were given to her before she left, so there is no need for Aunt Yu to pretend to be kind.Aunt Yu's actions were obviously bribing her.

Si Qinghu's attitude was tough and resolute, Aunt Yu shyly hid the box back in her sleeve.He said again: "Those children are newly signed by my aunt. Seeing that she has raised you in Qingyufang for ten years, and for Grandma Si's sake, you should support them more!"

Si Qinghu looked serious, "Don't worry, Aunt Yu, I select people based on ability, and I won't make things difficult for you because of past grievances."

She said that on purpose, she knew that what Aunt Yu wanted was not just not to embarrass her, but a rating that was beyond the scope of her geisha abilities.

"It's getting late, it's time for Qinghu to go back."

"Auntie doesn't mean that, Qinghu..."

Aunt Yu got anxious and subconsciously pulled Si Qinghu.

Xiao Tong just walked in and saw Si Qinghu being entangled by Aunt Yu. Irrelevant people are entangled!"

Her sudden appearance made Si Qinghu a little surprised, but more joyful.

"Shiro!"

Xiao Tong protected Si Qinghu behind him, and said to Aunt Yu with a smile: "Thank you, Aunt Yu, for looking up to Xiao and sending so many tricksters to participate in our draft. But if you make things difficult for Qinghu, I won't be polite to you." of!"

She saw through this Aunt Yu at a glance, and kidnapped Si Qinghu with the grace of nurturing!

"Qinghu, let's go!"

Aunt Yu watched their figures disappear at the gate of the yard with bitter eyes and sighed.

It seems that there is no way to win over Si Qinghu and let his own geisha win. I hope my people can live up to it!

"Oh, my aunt put down her old face to please her, but no one else wants to accept it. You don't cooperate with me, but talk about the old relationship with Si Qinghu, isn't it embarrassing?"

Liu Qingmu had already heard that Aunt Yu had hired ten geisha to participate in the talent show created by Xiao Tong without telling her, and four more were shortlisted, so she came to this yard just after performing "Song of Everlasting Sorrow", and walked to Aunt Yu while mocking .

Aunt Yu also knew about her new opera, because she had never attended Xiao Tong's lecture class, and she and Bai Shu studied "Mulan" and messed around. God, there are not even 800 people watching.

On the one hand, she was thankful that she didn't listen to Liu Qingmu's lobbying to invest in it, but on the other hand, she felt cold to Liu Qingmu. If any geisha could win in the draft, she would use it to replace Liu Qingmu and train her to become the successor of Qingyufang.

Aunt Yu didn't give Liu Qingmu a good face either, and no one bought her operas that mocked her!

Liu Qingmu was furious on the spot, her brows stood on end, and she retorted: "It's not that my operas are bad, it's the fault of Si Qinghu and Xiao Silang. If they didn't deliberately set the draft at the same time, my operas would be watched. One day I will make them pay!"

Aunt Yu sneered, she didn't understand until now, if her operas were really that good, then the few judges would rush to tell them about it, word of mouth would spread, and it would naturally attract more people.But the current situation is that there are fewer audiences in one game than the other, and she really can't think of any other reason except that the drama is too poor.

"Qinghu may be the child of a certain official in the imperial court. I advise you not to take revenge on her!"

"Huh, it's been a few months since I returned to the official position. If the official's daughter would have come home long ago!"

It has been more than two months since someone asked Aunt Yu to inquire about Si Qinghu's life experience. Why is there no movement from Si Qinghu?Liu Qingmu thought, it's probably a mistake!

Aunt Yu said again: "Even if she is not the daughter of any official, Qinghu will be the head wife of the Xiao family in the future. Don't fight against the Xiao family anymore, you will forego your own path!"

Liu Qingmu smiled indifferently at first, and then grasped the point, she was amazed, "What is the headed wife?"

Aunt Yu's mind flashed just now when Si Qinghu mentioned Xiao Silang's affectionate appearance, and since Xiao Tong entered the yard, her gaze has been following her.

Aunt Yu also loved her when she was young, and she knew it with just one look.

He smiled and said, "Qinghu accepted Xiao Silang."

Liu Qingmu couldn't believe it, and smiled slightly.After a while, the bright peach eyes flashed coldly.

I thought to myself: "How exciting would it be if the gratification of two feelings turned into robbery?"

At midnight, the streets of Dongjiaolou Street became empty and lonely, but the brothels and gambling houses on both sides were brightly lit, rich and luxurious, and there were laughter and laughter.

The singing, music, and cheers in the Goulan also came from afar.

The vermilion luxury carriage was rolling along the road, and the two sat facing each other in the carriage.

"Why are you here tonight?" Si Qinghu asked.

"You didn't come back when you saw Kuaizi, what do you think happened over there?" Xiao Tong lowered his face, feeling a little shy because he was too nervous.

"I'm pointing out a few players, it's a bit late."

Si Qinghu smiled, with sweetness in his heart.

Regardless of whether Xiao Tong was worried about something happening at the talent show or about her, she took the initiative to find her, took the carriage home together, and had an extra period of time for the two of them to be alone, which made her content.

Xiao's dental shop was not far from the lotus shed, and it was about to return. Si Qinghu opened the curtains of the car, and the lonely street was empty, except for a few dimly lit lanterns.

She said, "Let's go down for a walk!"

Xiao Tong was a little puzzled, but he also agreed and asked the driver to drive back to the tooth shop first.

The cold street was shrouded in a mist, and they walked side by side.Xiao Tong looked at Si Qinghu's cold hands in front of him, wanted to hold her, raised his hands to his waist, and put them down again.

The atmosphere is just right tonight, Si Qinghu is also in a pretty good mood, isn't it a good time to discuss that matter?

"Shiro, do you have something to say to me?" Si Qinghu asked suddenly.

That's why she called to stop the carriage and walked here with Xiao Tong.

"Qinghu, how do you know?" Xiao Tong stopped and looked at her.

Si Qinghu smiled, but did not speak.

Xiao Tong was silent for a long time, thinking: "I do have something to discuss with you, it's about us..."

Before they could speak, the dark haze approached from afar, gradually covering them, blocking the light of the lantern in front of them.

The two turned their heads to see that there were two masked men in black, holding sharp swords with a cold light on their blades.

The man in black only showed a pair of eyes, like a falcon, full of murderous intent.

Xiao Tong and Si Qinghu panicked, but their expressions remained calm.

Subconsciously, Xiao Tong stepped forward and opened his right arm to protect Si Qinghu behind him.

Si Qinghu pressed her hand down, and said: "They are coming at me, I know martial arts, let me deal with it! You obediently hide by the side and protect yourself!"

Xiao Tong shook his head worriedly, the eyes of the person in front of him were deep, signaling her to rest assured.

The author has something to say: Haha, guess who sent it.

Ah, I'm going to spill blood again...
