However, this Miss Si Lili only sells her art, not her body.
Moreover, he rarely sees people.
He had to present his poem and essay so that Miss Manager would personally nod in approval.
It is recognized that he is an extremely talented person, capable of entering the inner chambers to have a conversation with the beauty.
This tactic of feigning indifference to lure someone in can, while it may be effective in manipulating people's hearts.
Those who frequent brothels and theaters are mostly impatient and probably more susceptible to Yuan Meng's approach.
So, Si Lili, who sells her art but not her body, is someone most people have never even met.
How did they manage to stand out from the crowd and become the most outstanding in Kyoto's dazzling entertainment scene?
This was naturally due to a rumor.
Legend has it that Lili's surname is not actually Si.
The surname is Li, but it is not the same as the character for "reason" or "logic".
It is Li, the surname of the royal family of Nanqing.
This young woman was actually a descendant of a royal family member from the early days of the dynasty.
They ended up in this situation only because their ancestors committed some crime.
The origin of this rumor is unknown.
However, many people know this and are willing to believe it to be true.
To be able to be with someone of such stunning beauty, exceptional talent, and knowledge of music and poetry.
Moreover, she is a woman with such a complicated and mysterious background.
Even just a few words are enough to win someone's heart.
That's why Zuixianju is very popular and very expensive.
Even after discarding the poem, there's no guarantee that you'll see Miss Si Lili again.
Evenings still see many people willing to spend a fortune to join in the fun.
Before long, Su Yu and Fei Jie arrived at the banks of the Liujing River.
Sure enough, there were a huge, huge, huge number of people.
Many talented people gathered by the river.
The scholars waved their folding fans, their expressions leisurely.
They gathered in small groups, chatting and laughing.
They then proceeded to different pleasure boats and entered different private rooms.
Those who don't know might genuinely believe that they came here to compose poems and exchange verses.
In this situation, a line from a poet came to mind for Su Yu.
Even though that place has been left behind by countless people, it is still a place many people yearn for.
Afterwards, Su Yu and Fei Jie boarded the famous flower boat in Kyoto.
Wang Qinian parked his carriage and followed.
His two small eyes were almost bulging out.
"Brother Su, this, this, this."
"Should I go back?"
Su Yu smiled.
"Okay, you can go back now."
Wang Qinian chuckled and shook his head.
"That still won't do, as Brother Su's confidant."
“I must stay by Brother Su’s side.”
"Just looking, I'm just looking."
Fei Jie chuckled and snorted coldly.
Zuixianju was also bustling with activity.
From afar, the lights flickered and the colorful ribbons fluttered.
It is like a dreamlike water palace.
The boat was filled with melodious music and sweet songs, and beautiful women danced gracefully.
But all of this pales in comparison to the woman in that elegant room, a woman of unparalleled beauty.
It just looks so vulgar and crude.
Su Yu silently activated his Heavenly Eye to take a look first.
The girl had eyebrows like willow leaves and dark eyes that sparkled and moved.
A pair of thin lips were painted with vermilion lip rouge.
With each gentle opening and closing, a natural charm is revealed.
But only in those dark eyes.
A faint trace of melancholy, though barely perceptible, seemed to be unfathomable.
It really makes me feel sorry for him.
Fei Jie tucked his hands into his sleeves and gestured with his eyes to the most bustling spot, where the doors and windows were tightly shut.
He looked at Su Yu with a pair of cloudy eyes and chuckled.
"Su Yu, it's time for you to show your talent."
Su Yu nodded and smiled, then went straight to Si Lili's place.
Chapter 136 Si Lili and Yuan Meng! They were in the prime of their youth!
The flower boat where Si Lili's room is located is not directly accessible.
You need to write a poem first, and then someone will row a boat to deliver the poem along with a silver note.
Only if the poem is approved can one meet the beauty.
Many people write poems here hoping to catch a glimpse of Si Lili's beautiful face.
They all looked very serious.
Their level of seriousness is probably no less than that of the imperial examinations.
After racking his brains for half a day, someone handed over the poem.
Not long after, they were forced to turn back along the same route.
However, the silver notes handed over along with the poem were non-refundable.
Most of the dashing young men who come here are naturally not short of money.
He picked up his pen again and began to ponder deeply.
Of course, some people are aware that their talents are limited.
So he came up with a clever idea: to find someone to write it for him.
This place is full of impoverished and down-on-their-luck poets.
The poets wrote their poems and then took the money from these wealthy young men.
He could simply turn around and find another cabin to enjoy himself in.
The wealthy young men, on the other hand, took these poems and essays.
They continued relentlessly sending flowers to Si Lili's flower boat.
However, no matter how many times they handed it over.
No matter how many people pass through 71 to 7. 11
The final result is the same.
It seems that no one will be able to see Miss Lili today.
Whether they were wealthy young men or talented scholars.
Gradually, they all began to feel depressed.
"Sigh, it didn't pass again. How much writing talent do you need to get approved?"
"Back in the day, when I participated in scientific expeditions, I didn't work this hard."
"Let's go back, let's go back. It seems that Miss Lili's flower boat won't be moving today."
They've gotten used to this every day.
Miss Si Lili's flower boat hasn't been moved for several months.
I don't know how this girl could have such high standards and aspirations.
So many poems and essays, yet not a single one could catch her eye.
Of course, it is precisely because seeing a beautiful woman is so difficult.
This has made it even more popular.
As the saying goes, things are valued for their rarity.
The saying goes, "What you can't have always stirs your heart."
Fei Jie, however, squinted and glanced at the poems and essays of these people.
He tsk tsk and shook his head.
"This level of writing is not even as good as what I, Lao Fei, write."
"No wonder I haven't been able to see Si Lili."
