"The first item of the competition is piano skills!"

Soon, Lin Dong's thoughts were pulled back by the voice of the host on the stage. It was said that it was a singing test competition, but it could not just be a singing test competition. The first competition was piano skills. Gu Hengbo slowly sat down in front of the guqin.

Okay, Qianqian Su gently strummed the strings with Su's hands, and the seven strings became more and more flexible under Qian Qianyu's hands, and the guqin slowly released beautiful notes.

Unexpectedly, Gu Hengbo not only ranked first in Nanqu, but also played the piano so well. It seems that famous courtesans in ancient times really had two skills. Unlike some so-called celebrities in previous lives, except for their sweet appearance, they did not have any real qualities.

Talent and practical learning.

Lin Dong couldn't help but secretly worry: I don't know how well Wu Yue plays the piano, but judging from her preparation, she should be as good as Gu Hengbo.

As the sound of the piano gradually became better, the audience cheered. It was obvious that Gu Hengbo's piano skills were greatly appreciated by these talents.

Soon, the song was over, and the audience immediately burst into roaring applause. Lin Dong looked up and saw that Gu Hengbo still had a calm expression on his face. Obviously, he had seen this scene many times.

After Gu Hengbo receded, he saw Wuyue walking up slowly. She was wearing a blue shirt and a long skirt, and she was walking gracefully. She looked a bit like someone from the world.

I saw her red lips parting slightly: "The little girl is showing off her ugliness!"

Then I saw her jade hand gently flicking on the guqin, and beautiful notes poured out, sometimes like mountains and flowing water, sometimes like spring breeze, passionate and soft blended together, it was really wonderful, even Lin Dong didn't understand

People who are good at playing piano were fascinated by it.

"I didn't expect that the little dancing girl's piano skills are so good. It's really rare." Lin Dong didn't have much research on music. Suddenly hearing such a pleasant piano sound broke his knowledge of music, and he became intoxicated without knowing it.

I don’t know when the music suddenly stopped, and the whole place fell silent.

"Okay..." Someone roared, followed by a burst of thunderous applause.

It seems that the little dancing girl will definitely win this first game.

Sure enough, after the song was played, the results of the competition came out quickly. The little dancing girl's piano skills were slightly better.

Next, the two competed in several other talents, and the result was a two-to-two draw. It seemed that it was no accident that they were chosen as the oiran.

Now there is only one last item left, that is singing skills, which is also the item that the little dancing girl is most worried about.

This time it was Gu Mei who came on stage first. She sang a new song that Hou Fangyu had written not long ago. It must be said that Hou Fangyu was indeed quite talented. This song was sung by Gu Hengbo and was so melodious that everyone was shocked and admired it.

Mr. Hou was envious of his talent and Gu Hengbo's singing skills. After singing the song, everyone was still immersed in the lyrics and music.

Gu Hengbo raised his eyes and glanced at the intoxicated crowd, bowed with satisfaction and said, "Young lady has shown off your ugliness!"

It was only then that everyone woke up from the shock and cheered.

Gu Hengbo smiled cheerfully, turned around and got off the high platform, and soon disappeared from people's sight.

Soon, Xiao Wu came on stage again. Because of Gu Hengbo's performance just now, everyone's mood was very strange. They were both regretful and a little excited, because in their opinion, they had already lost regardless of whether they were compared to Xiao Wu.

But as Fengyang people, they hope that the little dancing girl can win. After all, they are still Fengyang people, right?

However, what was surprising was that Xiao Wu had no intention of giving up at all. She stepped forward and said, "Xiao Wu's poem today is a new poem made by Young Master Lin Dong. I would like you all to appreciate it."

Everyone shook their heads. They really overestimated their abilities. What the hell is this Lin Dong? How dare he compare with Mr. Hou! Alas, why bother if you know it's not possible and do it?

However, when the little dancing girl spoke, everyone stopped thinking. This singing voice, this lyrics and music were no worse than Gu Hengbo's. In terms of singing skills, the two were almost on par. As for the lyrics and music, because they had just started now,

It’s not easy to comment, but just from the first few sentences it can be seen that the person who wrote this poem is definitely not simple.

"good……"

I don't know who in the audience shouted, and the whole scene suddenly became excited.

Lin Dong clenched his fists and said secretly: "It seems that it is done."

At this time, none of the people with the ugliest faces were Yang Ze and Hou Chaozong, the eunuchs left behind in Zhongdu. One of them wanted to use Gu Mei to attack his love rival and win her back, and the other wanted to become famous in one fell swoop and expand his reputation. But they never

I wish Wu Yue could find such good lyrics and music.

"No, we have to find a way." At this time, a voice sounded in Yang Ze's mind.

"Boom..." Suddenly, a loud noise came, followed by shouts: "Run quickly, the intruder is coming!"

"Quick, protect your lord!" The loud noise came, and the first to react were the guards. When they saw the commotion, they immediately drew their swords and surrounded their master.

At this time, the audience was even more chaotic. Some were shouting for help, some were in disbelief, and some were laughing... Anyway, there were everyone.

At this time, Yang Ze was still talking to himself: "Intruder? Didn't you say that the intruder is still hundreds of miles away in Henan? How could he come here?"

"Looking at this posture, I'm afraid it's true. You'd better run quickly. If it's too late, I'm afraid you may lose your life." Yan Rongxuan, the prefect of Fengyang, had long been frightened and said with a pale expression on his face.

As loud noises and commotions came, people around the high platform suddenly became a mess.

Yang Ze shouted while quickly retreating with the help of several eunuchs.

Compared to Yang Ze, Zhu Guoxiang was much calmer. He shouted angrily at the guards beside him: "Where is the cannon? Go and see!"

For a moment, the whole crowd was in a commotion, some people were running outside, some were so frightened that they hid under the table and shivered, and some even started crying loudly, shouting "Father, Mother, Mother."

Looking at the chaotic crowd, Lin Dong frowned slightly. He had obviously made an appointment with Li Da to wait until the competition was over before starting, so why was it earlier? Could something have happened? No, I have to go and take a look.

"No, we don't have artillery!" Lin Dong suddenly became excited and his scalp went numb. Could it be that the intruders had really entered the city? Are the historical records wrong? But there was no movement outside the city.

Lin Dong's mind was spinning rapidly, and he soon had a rough idea of ​​the matter. In fact, the main force of the Chuang Army had not entered the city. The people who caused trouble this time should be those who sneaked into the city first. As for the follow-up

How long it will take for the troops to arrive is unknown.

He analyzed the reason why the opponent launched the first attack, and there were two possibilities. The first possibility was tonight's competition, because tonight's competition was held outside the city, and almost all officials were watching the competition outside the city. There was something unusual in the city.

Empty, now they can easily capture Fengyang City with just one move. In this way, they will not only achieve the first success, but also gain a lot of benefits on the spot.

The second reason is that something went wrong with Li Da. Either he was discovered by the officers and soldiers or he collided with the spies who sneaked in first. He was forced to launch an offensive. However, Li Da and the others did not reveal any flaws before.

I think the second reason is less likely.

Lin Dong calmed down, looked around, and soon found the few guards he had brought.

Lin Dong was not polite and immediately squeezed out of the crowd with a group of guards. As he walked, he ordered: "Go and tell Li Da and Hei Xiong that if the situation changes, take action in advance. In addition, go and inform Cheng San and order him to immediately move the ship as soon as he takes the warehouse."

Drive over and carry the provisions and equipment to the ship."

"Yes!" Several people took the order, turned around and ran away.

Lin Dong no longer cared about going to Zhu Guoxiang to talk about the Qianhu officers, and immediately strode towards the city.

Due to the competition tonight, the city gate has not been closed - in fact, the city wall of Fengyang City has long been in dilapidated condition, and it doesn't make much difference whether it is there or not.

At this time, all the guards guarding the city gate were frightened and ran away without even a single person.

At this time, Zhu Guoxiang was also confused. When he finally understood the situation in the city and wanted to mobilize troops to suppress it, he discovered that his subordinates had already bombed the camp. For a while, the entire military camp was filled with shouts of killing. These people were already very nervous.

, when he heard the cry of killing, he thought that the enemy was coming, so he rushed out of the tent without distinguishing between enemy and friend in the dark night, and cut people in sight, for fear that he would be too slow to draw the sword and someone would chop off his head.

In addition, it was night again, and it was so dark outside that the soldiers had no time to put on their armor. The swords were hitting the flesh. The sound of crying, the clash of swords and guns, and the screams came continuously, which immediately made Zhu Guoxiang's scalp numb.

No matter what kind of battle we were fighting, the enemy didn't come, and our own people were in chaos first.

Fortunately, he was also experienced in fighting. He immediately drew out his machete and chopped down a soldier who was running around, and roared: "Everyone, listen, I am Zhu Guoxiang, everyone come closer to me."

It's a pity that the army is in chaos now. Who will listen to him? After working for a long time, he can only gather more than a hundred people.

Despite this, Zhu Guoxiang did not give up. He knew that there was only a small enemy force in the city now. As long as the army could be gathered as soon as possible, it would definitely be able to save the day.

Lin Dong quickly entered the city with his guards. What he was most worried about now was Li Da. Because the Chuang army had launched, his original plan was no longer applicable. If Li Da could not adapt to the situation and directly confront the Chuang army,

, it is very likely that you will suffer a loss.

At this time, Li Da was leading a group of ragged "peasant troops" wandering around, creating chaos according to Lin Dong's plan.

And behind them, large groups of refugees continued to pour in, and the entire street suddenly became chaotic. Some residents of Fengyang City also rushed out of their houses and ran around aimlessly, hoping to escape from the city quickly.

Go, but it's a pity that it's night now, and everything is dark. Although these people have lived in Fengyang City for most of their lives, in such a panic, they couldn't find the direction out of the city for a while, and they could only mess around in the city.

Turn, this makes Fengyang City become even more chaotic.

When the officers and soldiers on patrol at night saw so many refugees rushing towards them, they thought they were all intruders. They were frightened, threw down their weapons with a cry, and started running like crazy, fleeing as they ran.

He took off his armor, fearing that he would be overtaken by someone if he ran too slowly.
