~8 min read 1,535 words

Gathering of Beauties.

Zone D.

With the help of the Kunxu Cauldron in the heart sea, the "Sword of Slashing Demons" that "Xie Guan" would have to spend half a month to fully master.

Has been fully mastered by Yu Ke.

Anyway, as long as the simulation ends, Xie Guan's gains are reflected on Yu Ke.

It's a pity that he can only borrow the power of this body during 【Participate personally】.

It seems that he cannot use the items in the original world, and Yu Ke cannot even recall the exercises passed down in the Shenxiao Sect.

It seems that there is a prohibition of "a leaf covering the eyes."

Facing this scene, Yu Ke had to restrain his mind and had to slowly open his eyes to examine everything around him.

On the stage, the performance of the second top courtesan had come to an end, and her performance of the Hu Qin solo was melodious and intoxicating.

This top courtesan came from Zixiao Pavilion, and her piano skills were superb.

Zhang Yuanlai's expression was unusually excited, because the sound of the Hu Qin came from Longxi Road, which was exactly the rhyme of his hometown that he dreamed of.

Feng Yaya was meticulous, noticed Zhang Yuanlai's ups and downs, and silently stretched out her slender hand to hold his palm tightly.

The two looked at each other and smiled, their eyes full of tenderness and affection.

He Xiao witnessed this scene, his face couldn't help but have a bit of dejection, and he couldn't hide his envy in his heart.

He and Zhang Yuanlai both had the title of Licentiate, but they didn't count for anything in the bustling Above Bianjing.

They were just guests of the young masters and ladies of the nine great surnames, called and waved away.

Feng Yaya was originally the top beauty of Yuehua Pavilion, smart and capable, and became famous in Yuehua Pavilion for several years, and her value increased.

It was a high climb for Zhang Yuanlai to get her favor.

At this time, Zhou Yuner served diligently in front of Xie Guan and poured him a new glass of wine again.

Yu Ke saw this and did not refuse, raising his glass and drinking it all.

"Young Master Guan, do you think these three top courtesans are still pleasing to the eye?" Zhou Yuner asked tentatively in a low voice.

Yu Ke's gaze swept across the stage, only to see a piece of joy, and even by the railing on Yao Xian Lou, there were bursts of applause.

The people on both banks of the Zhi River also cheered, bustling with excitement.

However, Yu Ke had no waves in his heart, and he knew that he was just a "spectator" out of the situation.

"They are all beauties." Yu Ke smiled faintly, his words appearing perfunctory.

Zhou Yuner heard this, and her heart was secretly happy. She was most afraid that Young Master Guan would have feelings for which top courtesan.

She had seen with her own eyes in the West Wing Pavilion that those infatuated men would do all kinds of absurd things to win a beauty's smile, which was really sighing.

Fortunately, Young Master Guan seems to be a calm person.

On the square stage, the woman moved her lotus steps lightly, bowed to the guests in all directions, and then opened her red lips to announce the next poem title—"Hu Qin Frontier," after which she slowly retreated from the stage, leaving only a beautiful shadow.

He Xiao heard this poem title, frowned slightly, fell into contemplation, and his eyes cast toward Xie Guan from time to time, seeing him sitting in his original seat without any intention of getting up.

Recalling that he had also written poems in the previous scene, but seeing Xie Guan's masterpiece, he felt that it was difficult to reach, so he stopped "showing off."

Zhang Yuanlai was not, hearing the sound of his hometown, his interest in poetry was high, and he strode to the table, already picking up the pen.

Jia Yu and the three had not left either, and they all had a question in their hearts, waiting for the result to be revealed.

The small order Xie Guan wrote in the previous scene, although it was good, it was unknown whether it could win the first place.

At this moment!

He Xiao's eyes suddenly brightened, and his gaze followed the two women walking slowly along the path in the seat.

Especially the woman in white wearing light gauze walking in front, her figure was graceful, her temperament was elegant and quiet, which was not comparable to ordinary women.

It's a pity that the veil covered it, and I couldn't see her face.

Following the woman in white was Li Xiangjun, and the two seemed to be walking toward this room.

He Xiao saw this and hurriedly straightened his clothes to show respect.

Zhou Yuner's face flashed with surprise, and she stepped forward to greet enthusiastically:

"Sister Yun, why are you here? Aren't you preparing for the performance of the Gathering of Beauties?"

Feng Yaya had guessed a few points because she saw Li Xiangjun leave earlier.

Jia Yu and the three were shocked, remembering who this Miss Yun was.

One of the top courtesans of Yuehua Pavilion, and also a top courtesan who performed at the Gathering of Beauties today.

This is a top courtesan they couldn't reach, why did she come here.

Yun Wan's gaze was involuntarily attracted by the youth leaning on the chair in the seat.

The youth was dressed in an elegant plain robe, tall and slender, although he was closing his eyes to rest, the gentle and clear eyes were indifferent and self-contained when opened.

"Sure enough, it's a good appearance." Yun Wan thought secretly.

At this time, Li Xiangjun stepped forward and introduced: "This is Young Master Guan."

Yu Ke heard the words and looked up, only to see a woman bowing gracefully, her voice gentle like a spring breeze: "Yun Wan has met Young Master Guan."

"Yun Wan has met Young Master Guan."

"Because it is inconvenient today, I covered my face, which is really rude, and I hope Young Master Guan will forgive me."

Yu Ke was slightly puzzled, and there was no memory of this woman in Xie Guan's memory.

Zhou Yuner saw this and hurriedly explained on the side: "This Sister Yun is not only a top courtesan of Yuehua Pavilion, but also the host of our Gathering of Beauties this time."

Yu Ke nodded slowly and did not lose his manners.

"I have met Miss Yun."

Jia Yu and the three also fell on this woman, seeing that this top courtesan came for Xie Guan.

Li Xiangjun left earlier, and at this time Yun Wan came, could it be for a fixed-field poem?

As soon as this thought flashed, they felt it was unlikely.

After all, Yun Wan and Xie Guan had no intersection before, and did not understand his talent, so why did they come to ask for a poem rashly?

Can't it be because of the previous poem that they came here?

At this time!

On the square stage, the lights were brilliant, and another woman ascended the stage, exactly Gongsun Gongsun Niangzi Gongsun from the previous scene.

She was dressed in a graceful Luo dress, which was completely different from the heroic red silk dress before. At this moment, she was a bit more elegant and gentle, showing another style.

Gongsun Gongsun Niangzi Gongsun bowed gracefully on the stage, and everyone offstage paid attention, looking forward to her announcement.

Jia Yu and the three were focused, full of expectation and tension, they urgently wanted to know whether the poem written by Xie Guan just now could enter the top three.

Zhou Yuner also locked her gaze on the stage, her eyes flashing with expectant light.

Yun Wan also flowed her eyes and looked at the square stage.

Gongsun Gongsun Niangzi Gongsun smiled slightly, she said slowly: "This fixed-field poem was originally scheduled to be three masterpieces, but one of them was too outstanding to be abandoned, so I decided to make an exception and only take this one as the leader."

He Xiao suddenly had a premonition in his heart.

Zhou Yuner was worried, she was worried about whether Xie Guan's poem could stand out among this only one.

As the master of ceremonies solemnly posted the copied poem on the list and covered it with a bright red cloth, the atmosphere in the venue became more tense.

Everyone's gaze focused on the red cloth.

Gongsun Gongsun Niangzi Gongsun uncovered it.

A small order poem was revealed.

The master of ceremonies respectfully read it on the side.

Yun Wan's eyes were shocked, although she knew that Xie Guan's poem was outstanding, she didn't expect it.

Gongsun Gongsun Niangzi Gongsun had such great courage to keep only one.

Zhou Yuner was overjoyed.

"Young Master Guan, it's the poem you wrote."

He Xiao felt a sense of loss in his heart. After today, the youth who originally read in the small courtyard would be famous in Above Bianjing.
