    [1] "Appreciating Peonies" by Liu Yuxi. Poem

    The peony in front of the court is invincible,

    ? Fuqun on Chishang is pure and ruthless;

    Only the peony is truly national,

    When the flowers bloom, the capital moves.

    Liu Ji walked into the lobby of the "Drunken Red Mansion" of "Changchun Courtyard".

    There was a commotion in the lobby, and as the drums sounded, everyone fell silent, but all looked upstairs.

    Suddenly, a gust of breeze blew by, and the peony-like girl "flyed" down from the heads of the crowd, and landed lightly in the center of the stage like a visitor from outside, like a fairy descending from the sky.

    Immediately there was a burst of applause from below, and everyone applauded.

    The peony girl is wearing a cloud-like purple dress, the skirt flutters like a fairy, but she only wears a big red jacket with a bellyband on her upper body. On the bellyband is an extremely brightly blooming big peony embroidered, and she wears a thin  The almost transparent fine white gauze set off the peony loomingly.

    Seeing flowers in the mist is the most ecstasy, obviously this girl is well versed in this.  And she knew that the most beautiful part of her whole body was her pair of lotus root arms and slender heels, so she intentionally revealed these two places.

    Everyone was fascinated by her pair of plump but fleshless arms, slender but boneless arms, and her most ecstasy slender ankles. Coupled with her beautiful peony and tenderness, she really looks like a national beauty  A heavenly appearance All of these really fascinated all the men in the audience.

    In the middle of the crowd, Liu Ji found Liu Yuchun's seat.  Liu Yuchun hurriedly asked the servant boy to move a stool for Liu Ji.

    Liu Ji gasped, and said to Liu Yuchun about the girl on the stage, "In such a cold weather, she only wears this dress, isn't she cold?"

    Liu Yuchun smiled and said, "In order to win the oiran, the girls are all fighting." He pointed to the Peony girl on the stage and said, "Her body can add a lot to her, especially under this dress, her graceful figure  The body is a plus"

    Liu Ji joked: "Little sister-in-law, have you already performed? This time the oiran should be sister-in-law's!"

    Liu Yuchun said proudly: "Your sister-in-law said that she doesn't want to win the crown. Otherwise, the money to redeem her will be increased"

    "You still care about that little silver?!"

    "Hey~, you have to learn how to live, save a little bit." Suddenly remembering how a humble gentleman like Liu Ji came to such a place, he asked, "I said, why did you come? You are a Jinshi now. How can you come here?"  This kind of place? Don't be like me, someone will report it, and your Jinshi qualification will be removed."

    "Don't worry, I won't! Whoever is like you, in public, with your little sister-in-lawcan't help hugging." Liu Ji said while gesticulating.

    Liu Yuchun knew that Liu Ji was going to expose his fault again, so he quickly changed the subject: "The girl on the stage is from Yangzhou, her name is Xu Susu. I know her, why? Let me lead you a red thread?"

    Liu Ji asked: "You are Jinling, she is Yangzhou, how did you know each other? Didn't you never go to Fengyuechang before?"

    Liu Yuchun said: "She and Du Shiniang, who committed suicide by jumping into the river last year, are good sisters. I met through Li Jia. She performed "Fairy Scattering Flowers". How about it? Beautiful!"

    Liu Ji looked at the girl on the stage and said to himself: "Susu, but not at all!"

    Xu Susu's voice is like a yellow warbler out of the valley, which makes people enchanted.  She dances to the music, her graceful and graceful figure is like a blooming peony, enchanting and charming.

    Everyone's eyes also followed the fluttering of her body and moved accordingly

    [2] "Rolling Bead Curtain. Gu Yingyiyi" Ziwen. Ci in late autumn. Huo Zun. Song

    Liu Yuchun asked: "Brother Bowen, did you really come here to see the 'Commentary Flower List'?"

    However, Liu Ji didn't react at all, his eyes were fixed on another girl who had just come on stage to perform on the stage.

    [Cantonese version of the song "Rolling Bead Curtain"] "The breeze and rain blow the willows and poplars, and the flowing water is dark and dark. The moon is like frost, and the small porch window, looking at the warm wine in the wine glass, looking at the other side, is silent and heartbroken.

    The red makeup is thin and sad, and the remaining flowers are flying on the temples.  Looking through the eyes, recalling the lingering, tears staining the blue silk and holding the sad face, who is by the willow, the soul is confused.

    ah!  After a long time, the beauty is resentful, but the love is short.  ah!  The smoke and shadows move, the bead curtains roll, and the lonely pillow can't sleep at night.  "

    Liu Yuchun pushed Liu Ji again: "Brother Bowen, brother Bowen"

    Liu Ji asked without looking back: "Do you know this girl?"

    Liu Yuchun said: "Understood, they have been competing for three days. The competition in the first two days was 'pin' and 'rhyme', today's competition is 'talent', tomorrow will be more exciting, and the competition is 'color.?.  The girl on the stage is called Liu Zhi, and she is from Guangzhou Road.  "

    "Willow branch?" Liu Ji stared at the girl on the stage and asked, "Have you noticed that she looks exactly the same as the little nun from the 'Jianfu Palace'? It's just that the hair is different"

    "Little Taoist?" Liu Yuchun asked in surprise, "What little Taoist?"

    Liu Ji turned his head and said, "That time, when we went on a spring outing together—ohyou were all thinking about your little sister-in-law at that time, so why worry about other things! Think about it again, is she with Han Wo?  How much does Mei Feier, who is going to marry, look alike?"

    Liu Yuchun smiled and said, "I've never met Mei Fei'er, so how do I know if they look alike?"

    "Hey, I almost forgot about the business." Liu Ji took out Han Wo's wedding invitation and handed it to Liu Yuchun, "Han Wo is getting married on the 29th, so I want you to attend his wedding."  His eyes moved to the stage.

    Liu Yuchun said happily: "Okay, I will definitely go!"

    Liu Ji stared at Liu Zhi without blinking and said: "You can't go alone! Mr. Han especially emphasized that you must take your little sister-in-law with you. If you don't take her, you don't have to go."

    On the stage, willow branches are performing gracefully:

    [Cantonese version of the song] "Sorrows and thoughts are endless, spring night and wind and rain are lingering, and the world has changed a little bit. Haggard and worn out, weathered and frosty, who is pity for Gu Yingyi, and endless cold nights. The sound of the piano complains."

    Liu Yuchun asked: "Since I invited your sister-in-law, why only write my name on the invitation?"

    Liu Ji said: "Aren't you two not married yet? Why do you write 'with your wife' so poorly?"

    Liu Yuchun scolded: "You bad boy"

    As soon as Liu Zhi finished singing, Liu Ji got up and left "Changchun Courtyard".

    Notes

    [1] Heavenly Girl Scattering Flowers

    An idiom that mostly describes the appearance of throwing things or heavy snow.

    Tiannv Sanhua is an allusion in ancient China, as well as an idiom and legend.  There are many Peking Opera, Huangmei Opera and murals derived from this allusion.  The term "Heavenly Girl Scattering Flowers" originally comes from a story in the Buddhist "Vimalakrīrti Sutra. Audience Life".  It tells the story of the goddess Baihua Fairy who scattered flowers to try the Bodhisattva's disciples' Taoism. When the flowers fell on the Bodhisattva's body, the flowers would not fall on the disciple's body.  The implication is that the scene of the goddess scattering flowers is like the appearance of heavy snow flying in the sky.  He also signaled to scatter flowers for the goddess, spread the flowers to the earth, and use flowers to decorate the mountains, forests and grass trees.

    Tang and Song Zhiwen's "Shu Zhai Sighs on Buddhism": "The goddess scattered flowers and decorated the grass and trees of the mountains and forests."

    Ming. Cao Xue's "Scenic Spots in Sichuan" Volume 2: "(Chengdu) Dongcheng Tower, that is, Sanhua Tower"

    The Buddhist scriptures, "Vimalakirti Sutra. Spectator's Life", says slightly: "There was a woman in the Vimalakirtoise room, who scattered all the Bodhisattvas with smallpox, and all of them fell. The great disciple, she put on her body and did not fall.  Dressed up."

    Meaning: "Heavenly Girl Scattering Flowers" is also called "Fairy Girl Scattering Flowers", which means that the world is full of spring and auspicious celebrations are always present.

    The sixteenth of the traditional Chinese auspicious patterns: fairies flying in the clouds and scattering flowers.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
