Chapter 12 Top Ten Beauties in the World
Xiao Chuan and Yu Wenyan bid farewell to Zhan Ziqian and walked out of the painting and calligraphy shop.

Yuwenyan and Ruyi walked a few steps, then stopped suddenly, and said, "Brother Dugu, I suddenly thought that there will be a poetry meeting today. I wonder if brother Dugu is interested in participating?"

Xiao Chuan said, "Is there anything to eat?"

Yu Wenyan covered her mouth with a smile and said, "Of course there is food."

Xiao Chuan said: "Okay, let's go to the poetry meeting."

Dugu Wudu and Dugu Yan were also very excited.

Only Ruyi pursed her mouth and reached out to secretly tug at the corner of Yu Wenyan's clothes, but Yu Wenyan didn't seem to feel it.

When a few people came to the poetry meeting place, Xiao Chuan was stunned: "Yunyan Pavilion, isn't this a brothel?"

Yu Wenyan said: "This place is full of courtiers, those who sell their art but not their personalities. They are all receiving high-ranking officials and talented people. This poetry fair is called the Oiran Poetry Fair. Which one will get the best poems the most? This year's oiran!"

Xiao Chuan snorted.

Yu Wenyan said: "Could it be that brother Dugu has not been to the brothel?"

Xiao Chuan couldn't be underestimated, he boasted: "Of course I've been here, I often come to the brothel."

But Duguyan came over to expose her old background, and asked curiously: "Brother, you have been stupid at home for two years, when did you come out to play?"

Tong Yan Wuji made Xiao Chuan blush, and said: "What do children know? You and the second brother are playing with the dog nearby, don't go far, the eldest brother will go in and get you some delicious food."

Xiao Chuan, Yu Wenyan, and Ruyi entered Yunyan Pavilion, and the welcoming guests saw the extraordinary temperament of the three of them, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet them with a nod and bow.

In the center of the hall on the first floor is a circular stage with a diameter of one foot. Hundreds of brocade carpets are placed around the stage. son.

Yu Wenyan took out a golden invitation card, and the welcoming guests immediately took the three of them to the most luxurious private room on the second floor. The private room can cover more than 200 square meters, and there are twenty brocade couches. There is a low table and a few futons.

The private room was already filled with [-]% of the literati, and everyone chatted, talked about some elegant and interesting stories, secrets of the boudoir, and bursts of laughter from time to time.

The three of Yu Wenyan came to a corner, where the stage on the first floor could be seen clearly, but it was not noticeable.

Ruyi tossed a few golden melon seeds to Yingbin, Yingbin immediately smiled and thanked him repeatedly, and soon served exquisite snacks and bright fruits.

It's just that the snacks and fruits in the private rooms on the second floor are obviously a higher level than those on the first floor.

As soon as Xiao Chuan sat down, he immediately picked up a snack and put it in his mouth, chewing it loudly.

Ruyi frowned and said, "Xiao Chuan, can you eat more elegantly?"

With snacks stuffed in his mouth, Xiao Chuan said vaguely: "They are all old men, what kind of elegance do you want! It tastes good like this."

Yu Wenyan poured a glass of wine, picked it up, and said with a smile: "Brother Dugu, manly, don't stick to trifles, let me toast you a glass."

Xiao Chuan swallowed the snack hard, choked a little, stretched out his hand to rub his throat, and picked up the wine glass, saying, "Brother Yuwen, drink to win!"

"Drink wins!"

The two raised their necks and drank the wine in their glasses.

"Cough cough cough."

Yu Wenyan may be drinking for the first time, so she was unprepared and coughed from choking.

Xiao Chuan said: "Brother Yuwen, drink slowly."

Yu Wenyan said: "This is the first time I drink alcohol, so it tastes like this. I didn't expect so many people to flock to it."

Xiao Chuan said: "Wine is like life. It is bitter in the mouth and has a mellow fragrance. You need to taste it slowly. Life is like wine. Every drop is intoxicating. When you first drink it, it is bitter and bitter, and gradually the bitterness fades and turns sweet. In this way, drinking wine is just like drinking. Life."

Yu Wenyan applauded and said with a smile: "Brother Dugu said well, wine is like life, life is like wine, let's make it clear!"

Xiao Chuan raised his wine glass, touched it with Yu Wenyan, and shouted: "Do it!"

"Dry!"

After drinking two glasses of wine, Yu Wenyan blushed.

Ruyi worried: "Little Lang, don't get drunk."

Yu Wenyan smiled and said: "We Xianbei people grew up on horseback, and we don't get drunk after a thousand cups, but I only drink two cups, it's fine!"

Xiao Chuan raised his wine glass again and said, "Brother Yuwen is right. A man should drink the hottest wine, ride the strongest horse, and drive a long cart to break through Helan Mountain! go back."

Ruyi whispered: "If you dare to carry it back, your head will be gone."

At this moment, a scribe sat down beside Xiao Chuan.

Scholar 26, seven years old, with eight-character eyebrows, cross-eyed, thin and dry, he poured a glass of wine, raised his glass and said with a smile: "Three young gentlemen, I see that you have a place here, and I don't mind if I take it with you." A seat?"

Ruyi frowned, and just about to get angry, Xiao Chuan said with a smile: "There are only three of us, friends feel free to sit."

Yu Wenyan said: "It's okay."

The scribe was overjoyed and said: "I borrow flowers to offer Buddha, and I do it first to respect."

"Gudong." The scholar raised his neck and drank the wine in his glass.

Xiao Chuan also drank with him, and Yu Wenyan lightly touched his lips.

The scribe said: "Fresh, what's the right one, from Pixian County, what's the name of Mr. Xiaolang?"

Xiao Chuan said: "Xiao Chuan."

Yuwenyan said: "A certain Yuwenyan."

Ruyi curled her lips, ignored He Tuo, and He Tuo didn't care, raised her glass again to drink with Xiao Chuan, and then said: "Young gentlemen, do you have any girls you like?"

Xiao Chuan took a look at Yu Wenyan, but Yu Wenyan didn't say anything, so he said, "We're just watching the excitement, which girl does Brother He like?"

He Tuo said: "You can just call me Xifeng, a certain one is naturally here for Yun Jiaojiao."

Xiao Chuan said: "Brother Qifeng, is this Yun Jiaojiao pretty?"

He Tuo said: "Beautiful, not only beautiful, but also versatile, playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting."

Xiao Chuan said: "That's an exaggeration."

He Tuo said: "Let me tell you this, that is, Yun Jiaojiao came from a humble background, otherwise she would be ranked among the top ten beauties in the world."

Xiao Chuan regained his energy immediately, and asked curiously, "The top ten beauties?"

He Tuo drank a glass of wine and said mysteriously: "The top ten beauties, the first to fifth are of course the current five queens, the sixth is Sui Guogong's wife Dugu Jialuo, and the seventh is Dugu Jialuo. The first is Zhang Lihua, the concubine of Chen Shubao, the prince of the Chen Dynasty. The eighth is Xiao Meiniang, the daughter of Xiao Kui, the former Xiliang Emperor Xiaoming, but now Xiao Meiniang is only 12 years old, otherwise she can enter the top three. The ninth is Chen Shubao's younger sister, Princess Xuanhua , and the tenth place is Princess Qianjin, the daughter of King Zhao Yuwenzhao."

Hearing the words "Princess Qianjin", Ruyi immediately became unwilling, and said, "You mean that if Yun Jiaojiao had a good background, she would be able to stand up to Princess Qianjin?"

He Tuo said: "This is one of the top ten beauties in the world as judged by the literati. I have never met the daughter of the princess, so how can I compare it with Yun Jiaojiao? But I heard that the mother of the daughter of the princess is Han, so Combining the advantages of both the Han and Xianbei races, her facial features have the Xianbei's chiseled features, big eyes and high nose, plump and long body, delicate and fair skin like a Han woman's, and her temperament is as straight and cheerful as a Xianbei girl's, without being unruly. Losing the dignity and elegance of a lady from the Han family, she is omnipotent in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she is omnipotent in horseback riding and archery. Now the children of noble families in Chang'an City are all vying to be the son-in-law of this extremely talented royal princess. Alas, It’s not about who will win in the end.” [Note 1]
