【212】The big show begins
"Wuwuwu, this is the name of my family, it's him." The woman was illiterate, but she cried bitterly while listening to someone's newspaper reading.
"The others just went there, leaving us orphans and widows. Fortunately, there was a pension from the court, otherwise how should we live!"
"Stop crying, they are all soldiers who sacrificed for the banquet. They are heroes!"
"Yes, they are all heroes!"
"Look here, in addition to the pension, there are also a series of preferential policies, which not only arrange suitable jobs for the family members, but also waive some of the tuition and miscellaneous fees for the children. How great it is."
People cannot be resurrected when they die, but if the living can be well, it will be considered a wish.
In addition to a series of compensation policies, Yan Shang also built a martyr's cemetery in the southeast, northwest and in Yanjing under Hua Moxi's suggestion. All the bodies of soldiers who were agreed to by the family can be buried in the cemetery and enjoy the respect and worship of the world.
After the war stopped, the auditions were officially concluded by Hua Moxi's "Warrior World War" and "The Courtesan Show" planned by Hua Moxi, and entered the next stage of the knockout stage.
Hua Moxi asked people to install playback equipment in many places in the banquet, just like playing open-air movies for the people to watch. However, those who want to enter the audience need to pay a certain amount of fees, which is very meaningful to go to the theater to watch the show.
The people are very curious about this and want to know what methods can be used to let them see the election thousands of miles away.
In mid-November, when the first snowfall in the Yanjing City was in the capital, the first knockout match of "The Courtesan Show" officially began. The top courtesan women in the country gathered in the Yanjing City, attracting countless literati and scholars to watch.
In fact, Hua Moxi's original idea was to let all women across the country participate, but the folk customs of the banquet were relatively conservative. Such a thing of throwing out was really not something that ordinary women could do, so they could only settle for the second best and put it into the "Courtess of the Courtesan".
Because it was early winter and the weather was cold, the knockout match was set indoors. In order to demonstrate the fairness and authority of the competition, Hua Moxi invited seven judges to comment.
These seven people are Concubine Han, who has just become a concubine, and are also the mother of the former Eighth Prince and the current Eighth Prince. She is now living in the royal palace with the Eighth Prince. She was specially invited by Yan Shang. She is the most noble among the seven judges.
The second one is the maid Rong Ling, who was once in the palace, who is also an old man around the queen. She is very proficient in posture, demeanor, dogmatic and rules. Moreover, she has been in the palace for many years and has participated in the emperor's talent show many times. She can be said to have seen all the beauties in the world and is a very authoritative judge.
The third one is Hua Moxi herself. She feels that as the queen and the planner of the event, she should naturally participate.
The fourth and fifth are both wealthy ladies, and they are proficient in poetry, songs, and essays, calligraphy and painting. Their dresses can often attract people's attention and imitate. They are two very popular judges.
The sixth and seventh judges were two men, Prince An Yan Mingxue, and the young escort officer of the official escort agency Yijian.
These two are excellent men in terms of identity and character. When Hua Moxi initially considered choosing two men as judges, she immediately thought of these two men.
As for the strange expressions of the two people when they received the invitation, Hua Moxi didn't know.
"Welcome to the election scene of "The Courtesan Show". I am the host Mengmeng..." The host Mengmeng is a young girl wearing a light red dress, beautiful and cute, full of cuteness and liveliness. As soon as she appeared, she attracted everyone's attention.
Hua Moxi sat in the center of the judges' seat, and the other six judges sat on both sides of her. Opposite them was a huge stage, which was decorated very exquisitely, and looked like it was surrounded by various flowers.
This studio was also specially built for talent shows. Due to the cold weather, a lot of heating equipment has been added to the interior, all purchased by Hua Moxi from the Apocalyptic Plane.
"... Let's invite the first team of girls from Chunxianglou, Yanjing City to the stage." After a brief opening remark, the first group of girls came up. There were a total of five people, dressed in colorful clothes, holding various musical instruments in their hands. After walking onto the stage, they began to introduce themselves as required.
"Hello everyone, I am a girl from Chunxianglou. My name is Lingjiao. I am good at singing, dancing, painting, and I like Mingling and Lingwu..." Although the first girl who spoke was a little shy, she had a clear conversation and her every frown and smile was full of charm, and she looked very attractive.
Hua Moxi raised her eyebrows, looked at the two men in a plate, and asked, "Do you two like this girl?"
Guan Yijian looked cold and Yan Mingxue was calm. When the two of them heard such questions, they reacted differently.
"I don't like it." Guan Yijian said bluntly.
Yan Mingxue said a few more words, "The girl is good, but she is not what I love."
Hua Moxi understood the conservativeness of the men in the Great Banquet Country and explained: "Everyone has a love for beauty, not the meaning of love, but also the meaning of appreciation."
Whether it is the girls on the stage or the judges, there are cameras to shoot, so their words and deeds will be recorded and they need to be taken with caution.
Although Concubine Han is a Concubine, she still acted like the same as before and said casually: "You two young men are embarrassed."
Guan Yijian continued to have a cold face, but what he said was very surprising, "I have something to do with my heart, but I look at others."
Concubine Han smiled and said with a distressed look: "Then it's not easy for you to be a judge like this to give the girls the same score."
Guan Yijian frowned, "I don't know, my skills have their own advantages." He doesn't look at his appearance, but he can look at his skills.
"Do you understand?" Yan Mingxue interrupted in a cold tone.
Guan Yijian glanced at the stage, "It doesn't matter whether I understand it or not. Since I am an audience member, I can naturally rate it according to my own preferences."
He had told Hua Moxi this at the beginning, but Hua Moxi didn't care. He just said that it would be fine according to his preferences, so he agreed to come and be a judge.
After hearing this, Yan Mingxue did not ask any more questions, but looked at Hua Moxi. At this time, Hua Moxi was no longer wearing a mask, and a beautiful face was revealed in front of the world. She was fair and flawless, delicate and beautiful, and she made people feel a little uncomfortable with her fairness.
This made Yan Mingxue think of the sweetheart that Guan Yijian said...
Alas, it's too late.
