So when they saw two women with extremely outstanding looks joining the game, they couldn't help but look at them carefully. "What beautiful ladies! One is like a lotus emerging from water, and the other is like a scarlet rose. Wow..." Many guests murmured as they looked at the two of them. Yun Xin and others also saw Lin Aoxue and Ye Liuyun, but they just raised their eyebrows slightly and didn't say much. "Eh? Why are they here?" Song Shuwen was also embarrassed. The banker was a dignified and mature woman, about twenty-five or twenty-six years old. She didn’t dress like a prostitute at all, but rather like a lady from a wealthy family. But to be honest, many of them were daughters of officials. Facing the gazes and observations of the crowd, Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue remained calm and did not show any unhappiness on their faces. "It's just the right time for the two new gentlemen to take their seats. We are about to start the next competition. May I know what your names are? My name is Liu Moli, and I'm honored." The woman sitting in the dealer's seat stood up and asked Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue. Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue did not stand up either, but responded with a bow. "Liuyun."
"Ride the wind." --------------------------------- Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue answered one after another, saying that they would definitely not say their real names here, so just give them a random title. After receiving the greetings from the two, Liu Moli sat down again and continued to host the game. As for the manager Yun Fang, she had already arrived at the third floor and was looking for Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue everywhere. "Where are the people? Where are the people? Did you see two young men coming upstairs, one wearing white and the other wearing red?" Manager Yunfang asked the guards on the road. "Ah? Manager Yunfang, no." The guards on the third floor were stunned. This made Yunfang confused. The person at the entrance below clearly said that the two people had come up, but the person above said that no one was there. She could only ask carefully again and even specifically described the appearance of the two people. But unfortunately, still no guard nodded. Yun Fang was at a loss and could only search by herself. However, the place was so small that after looking around, she still could not find any trace of the two people. "Impossible? Could it be that the people downstairs made a mistake?" Manager Yun Fang fell into deep thought, then ran downstairs again. This time, the two guards at the downstairs entrance were confused. They clearly saw the other party go up, but why did the other party disappear after going up? If they didn't see it wrong, there was only one possibility, that they disguised their identities after going up. After all, the art of disguise also exists in the secular world. With no other options, Manager Yun Fang had to return to the third floor again. "It seems that they are disguising their identities. Are they unwilling to let others know their identities? That's right, with their identities, how could anyone know that they came to such a place of entertainment?" Manager Yun Fang could only comfort herself. Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue's spiritual sense had already seen Manager Yun Fang. Manager Yun Fang was walking back and forth on the third floor, obviously looking for something. They knew he was definitely looking for them. "Okay, the next topic is wine. Please, guests and the girls in the Qunfang Palace, write a lyrical poem on the theme of wine." Liu Moli wrote a big word "wine" on the white paper on the table. Lin Aoxue had no intention of participating, so she sat next to Ye Liuyun and didn't make any movement. As for Ye Liuyun, she asked Lin Aoxue using her spiritual sense. "Aoxue, you won't participate?"
"I'm not interested. Just have fun. I'm just here to accompany you to relax. Writing poems and lyrics should not be difficult for us Xia people on Earth." Lin Aoxue replied. Ye Liuyun chuckled, then immediately picked up a pen and started writing. To be more precise, she copied a poem. Just kidding, she could think of at least hundreds of famous poems from ancient and modern times in her mind. Even if she didn't copy them, she could still adapt them. "I'm sorry, Mr. Su, I will borrow your poems to help you become famous in the other world." Ye Liuyun said with a shameless smile. Speaking of lyrical poetry, her first reaction was naturally the great writer Su Dongpo from the Song Dynasty of the Xia Kingdom in her previous life. Anyway, there is definitely no Su Shi in this world, so there is no need to worry about anyone accusing her of plagiarism. The time limit for writing poetry is ten minutes. Those who can write a complete poem within ten minutes can participate in the competition, while those who fail to write a complete poem will be eliminated. Ye Liuyun already had a choice in her mind. She didn’t need to think about it, she just had to choose. "Let's make some minor revisions." Ye Liuyun revised the poem as he wrote it, and in less than five minutes, he finished it. After writing it, Ye Liuyun looked at it carefully. Lin Aoxue beside him also came over to take a look. After reading it, Lin Aoxue rolled her eyes at Ye Liuyun. "You might as well copy it, but there's nothing wrong with the modifications." Lin Aoxue said. "It's so unchallenging to just copy it completely. Besides, I didn't change a few words. Aoxue, I bet with you that this poem of mine will definitely take first place." Ye Liuyun said confidently. But Lin Aoxue would never gamble with Ye Liuyun. "What the hell are you betting on? It's not your original work. If you modify Mr. Su's poems and use them in the competition, wouldn't that be a crushing defeat?" Lin Aoxue directly refused to bet with Ye Liuyun. "Eh? You're so boring." Ye Liuyun wanted to complain again. Another five minutes passed, the time was up, and Liu Moli over there also stood up. "The time is up. Those of you who have not finished your poems or do not want to participate in this game, please turn over the signs on the table." Liu Moli said. Lin Aoxue and the other people who did not compose poems immediately reached out and turned a colored wooden sign on the table over from the blue side to the red side, which meant that they would not participate in this round of gambling. Then the maid standing behind Liu Moli began to walk over and check the poems written by Ye Liuyun and others, to prevent anyone from filling in the gaps. After checking, only thirty-one people in this round wrote complete poems, and about fifty-two women wrote lyrical poems related to wine. However, when the maid saw Ye Liuyun's poems, she was stunned. These maids were not illiterate and could understand the poems. After she finished reading Ye Liuyun's poems, there was obvious amazement in her eyes. Then the maid looked at Ye Liuyun intently before returning to Liu Moli's side. After they came back, they told Liu Moli the results of their inspection and confirmed that there were no problems before announcing the start of the challenge. "The guest goes first. Please choose the girl to fight against." Liu Moli said with a smile. Ye Liuyun was not in a hurry. He wanted to take a look at other people's gambling fights first. "Let me go first. I challenge girl number three." The young man took a quick look and found a girl he liked as his opponent. This challenge is also interesting, as you have to recite the poems one sentence at a time instead of reciting them all at once. The onlookers can judge the good or bad of the conversation based on the first sentences of both parties and then decide whether to place a bet. The first thing that appeared was the name of the poetry tune.
The blue team's song is "Yan Yu Nong: Drunk in the Rain" The red side is "Into the Red Dust: Love and Sorrow" Ye Liuyun looked at the names of the two people's poetry and touched his chin slightly. "Aoxue, who do you think writes better?" Ye Liuyun asked. Lin Aoxue thought about it. "The red side." Lin Aoxue replied. Judging from the names of the tunes, she felt that the red one had more flavor, while the blue one was too straightforward. After all, poetry would appear to be of low quality if it was too straightforward. However, one cannot be completely sure just by looking at the name of the tune. The people around, the guests, have already started placing bets. They wrote the amount of their bets on a piece of paper and placed it on the table in front of them. The two opponents were also placing bets. The blue player directly bet 100 taels, while the female player followed suit with 100 taels. If she didn't follow, she would have admitted defeat. "The second round begins, the first game." Liu Moli announced again. The maid sitting in front of the two people immediately copied the poem in large characters. After copying a sentence, she showed the poem in her hand to the audience. --------------------------------- The first line of the blue side is: "In the spring, I entered the South Mountain and was suddenly met with clouds, mist and rain." The first sentence of the Red Team: "Yesterday was like a dream, today I woke up, I don't know when." These two people are regular pentasyllabic poetry and regular lyrics. After everyone finished watching, some chose to stop losses in time, while others chose to continue betting. Who you bet on cannot be changed, so you either give up or continue. Soon two complete poems were displayed. After the poems and lyrics were displayed, the young man on the blue side just took a look and said helplessly. "I lose. Miss Hongyu's literary talent is unmatched among the guests here," the young man praised. The woman named Hongyu immediately stood up and bowed slightly to show her approval. But just because the blue team admitted defeat in the battle, it didn’t mean his poem couldn’t win, because it would ultimately depend on the result of the audience vote. But it is obvious that as long as you have good eyesight, you will generally bet on Miss Hongyu to win. So the final result is that Hongyu won, and her poem can become her signature work at present. As for other participants, after reading Hongyu's poems, if they feel that they are not good enough, they will give up this round, because if you want to participate, you have to place a bet. If you know that you cannot beat Hongyu's poems, continuing to place bets will be a waste of money. So some people gave up one after another. Not everyone needed to compete. Only those who were confident in their poems would continue to participate in the competition. In the end, only three people stayed on the men's side, and five people stayed on the women's side. Those who stay can challenge anyone, including their own side. "My slave, Bai Shan, challenges this new guest." Bai Shan took out 100 taels of silver and placed them on the table. Since it was not the beginning of the game, if Ye Liuyun accepted the challenge, he would have to place a bet. "Okay, I accept the challenge." Ye Liuyun also placed a bet.
The rest of the people can confirm again whether their own poems can win based on the poems of Ye Liuyun and Bai Shan. This is another round of elimination. The name of Ye Liuyun's poem is "Water Tune Boat Bow·Bright Moon Singing" Bai Shan's poem is titled "Bird in a Cage·Dancing for Thousands of Years" To be honest, just looking at the title of the tune, Ye Liuyun's poem is definitely not as good as the one written by the other. So Bai Shan was very confident and continued to place bets immediately. The audience around him also continued to place bets, but few people bet on Ye Liuyun to win. But when Ye Liuyun's first sentence was "When will the bright moon appear? I raise my cup to ask the sky." When everyone saw this sentence and compared it with Bai Shan's first sentence, it felt a bit unstable, so some people who had bet on Bai Shan to win began to give up. However, although Bai Shan felt that Ye Liuyun's words were interesting, she did not admit defeat, but continued to bet and started the second sentence. Ye Liuyun continued to follow. Ye Liuyun's second line is "I don't know what year it is in the palace of heaven." This sentence is very poetic. After all, it is a masterpiece handed down from generation to generation by Mr. Su, and it is not comparable to ordinary people. Ye Liuyun did not change it much. If he changed too much, it would change its meaning. "Good." Some of the more excited literati couldn't help but stand up and applaud. Even those who thought Hongyu would be the final winner are a little uncertain. But after reading it, Bai Shan asked a question. "Sir, are you writing lyrics or poetry?" "Lyrics and music." Ye Liuyun replied. After hearing that it was lyrics and music, Bai Shan felt a little more confident, because hers was a poem, and in the end one still had to look at the complete content, and lyrics and music were normally more difficult than poetry. "I'll follow." Bai Shan placed another bet. The starting bet here was at least fifty taels, which was already a big gamble. Ye Liuyun smiled slightly and continued to follow. The third line of Ye Liuyun is "I want to ride the wind and leave, but I am afraid that the jade buildings are too high up and cold." When Bai Shan saw this sentence, she felt a little more confident, so she continued to follow. But after the next sentence came out, Bai Shan began to feel something was wrong, but since it had come to this point, she could only gamble to the end. Because the stakes between the two have reached more than 500 taels, if they admit defeat, they will lose 500 taels directly. It is better to gamble to the end, maybe they can turn things around. But after Ye Liuyun's complete poem came out, there was no suspense in this game. When will the bright moon appear? I raise my cup to ask the sky. I wonder what year it is in the palace of heaven. I want to ride the wind, but I am afraid that the jade buildings are too cold up there. I stand up to dance with my shadow, but it doesn’t seem like I’m in the human world. Transfer to Zhuge, low Qihu, no sleep. There should be no hatred. People have sorrows and sorrows, and moons have yin and qing. Nung, moon and new moon. "This? Good, good words, very good." The audience around and other participants couldn't help but applaud.
After the lyrics and music came out, Bai Shan was completely confused. The overall rhyme of the lyrics and music cannot be compared even to that Hongyu. Ye Liuyun listened to the people around him cheering and was very happy. Only Lin Aoxue, who was standing beside him, rolled her eyes. Of course, she was just very happy in her heart, but she couldn't show it directly, she had to act calm. Liu Moli looked at the complete poem in her hand, her eyes twinkling, and it was obvious that she felt this poem was very good. "This poem will be passed down through the ages." Liu Moli confirmed after reading it. Among those who gave birth, some had already given up, even Hongyu, who gave up on her own initiative after the upper part came out. But Bai Shan, wanting to take a gamble, read to the end. She bet nearly 1000 silver coins on Kaiye Liuyun's complete lyrics and music.
