Film and Television: The Great Feng Sword Immortal, starting with Lingyue's updo hairstyle

The night watchmen's gong players were all crude and uncouth men, not well-versed in music.

it is good!

But they weren't quite sure how good it was.

All the gong players turned to look at Su Nan.

Is this Red-Sleeved Lady's zither playing good or bad, Su Zhexian? What do you think?

After all, the most beautiful courtesan in Kyoto's music and dance circles was renowned for her poetry and music, and Su Zhexian must have heard a lot about her.

"My lord, what do you think of this zither?"

"I feel that Lady Hongxiu's zither skills are comparable to those of Fuxiang, the most beautiful courtesan in the capital's music academy."

"Hey, how can we get involved in this kind of thing? The adults should handle it."

"..."

The group of gong players joked around, almost teasing each other.

Although Nangong Qianrou did not come to the Jiaofangsi, she instructed everyone before leaving not to reveal Su Nan's identity.

After all, she also had the task of protecting Sunan.

Therefore, many people in southern Jiangsu simply refer to him as "adult".

Su Nan took a sip of wine and said calmly, "Compared to Fu Xiang's zither skills, '460' is still slightly inferior."

Of course.

Fu Xiang was not only exceptionally skilled at playing the zither, but also at the pinnacle of his flute playing.

However, he hadn't yet witnessed Hongxiu's skills, so he couldn't offer a proper evaluation.

But I imagine it's quite different.

After all, under his guidance over the years, Fu Xiang's skill level has become unparalleled.

She knows everything a courtesan can do, and she also knows things a courtesan can't do.

"Are you perhaps referring to the 'Floating Fragrance Flower Queen' whose beauty is described as 'sparse shadows slant across the clear, shallow water, and a subtle fragrance drifts in the twilight'?"

The officials of the Grand Canal transport office suddenly brightened up.

The distance between Yuzhou and the capital was long, making information transmission somewhat difficult.

However, those who had been to Kyoto Kyoto would always bring back some news.

For example, the stunning beauty of that Floating Fragrance Flower Queen.

And the poem about plum blossoms that made her famous in Kyoto.

As this poem spread throughout the Confucian circles of Dafeng, Fu Xiang's name also became widely known.

This made all the most beautiful courtesans in the world extremely envious.

If they could also obtain a poem by Su Shi, they would not only become famous but also have their names recorded in history, which would make their lives complete.

There are two kinds of courtesans in the world: ordinary courtesans and courtesans who have won the favor of Su Shi (Su Zhexian) with a poem.

The latter seemed to have absorbed the ethereal aura of a banished immortal, ethereal and otherworldly!

However, there are only two or three people in the world who have received this honor.

Floating Fragrance Flower Queen is one of them.

When Hongxiu Niangzi heard the name Su Zhexian, her eyes brightened considerably.

She would be willing to pay any price to obtain a poem from Su Zhexian!

Unfortunately……

That immortal Su never left the capital, and he didn't know if he would ever have the chance to meet the immortal in his lifetime.

“That’s right, it’s this lady!” a gong player replied with a smile.

"It is said that Lady Fuxiang is a beauty of unparalleled grace and fragrance, the most beautiful woman in the world."

An official from the canal transport office asked the question, his eyes filled with anticipation.

This is the halo that fame brings.

Fu Xiang was the most famous courtesan in the capital, with such a halo above her head.

To men who frequent brothels, she was practically a goddess.

So the group of gong players looked towards southern Jiangsu.

They don't understand this; they need to ask a professional.

Su Nan was once again the focus of everyone's attention, and could only say indifferently, "Fu Xiang's appearance is indeed quite good."

"Among all the beauties I have ever seen, she is in the top five."

Su Nan's words were no exaggeration!

After all, the women he had met were no ordinary people.

Princess Consort of Zhenbei, Mu Nanzhi; Female Imperial Tutor, Luo Yuheng; Princess Huaiqing; Princess Lin'an; the obedient Pingyang; the natural-born foodie Chu Caiwei; the brave and contrasting Xu Lingyue...

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions turned somewhat strange.

The men with the gongs knew the ins and outs of southern Jiangsu, so they knew he was telling the truth.

Su Shi loved fine wine, but he loved beautiful women even more!

He had seen more beautiful women than rough men like himself had ever touched.

So this is definitely not bragging.

Many people couldn't help but feel envious.

I can't learn this!

As for the officials of the Grand Canal Transport Office, they only let out a few dry laughs.

This person speaks with arrogance.

How many beautiful women have you seen before, and you dare to spout such nonsense?!

However, boasting at drinking parties is a basic skill, and the officials from the canal transport department who came to drink with them were disdainful in their hearts, but on the surface they still smiled.

As the crowd kept referring to her as the "Queen of Fragrance," Lady Hongxiu's smile stiffened slightly, and she seemed somewhat displeased.

This is her territory, yet everyone is discussing another colleague.

What is this doing?

This is a slap in the face to her.

Hongxiu smiled and looked at Su Nan, her voice soft and sweet:

"You're joking, sir."

"The most beautiful courtesan in Kyoto is Fu Xiang. Even among all the courtesans, she stands out from the crowd."

"Sister Fuxiang is already an unparalleled beauty in the world. How many women in the world are more beautiful than her?"

"I don't believe it."

Hongxiu phrased it rather tactfully.

If translated, it means, "Hey kid, stop bragging!"

As a mere night watchman, it's already difficult enough for you to even see Fu Xiang, let alone be in the top five?!

Some officials from the Tonggong and Canal Transport Office understood the underlying meaning of these words.

The crowd felt a slight dissatisfaction.

This woman has no taste; how dare she spoil the guests' fun?

Su Nan glanced at Hongxiu, his interest waning further.

"Among the courtesans of Kyoto, Fu Xiang Niangzi's zither, Ming Yan's dance, Shu Mo, the courtesan's painting... each has its own unique characteristics."

"The title of courtesan is not solely determined by appearance. What's the point of someone who's just a pretty face?"

"It's just a sex toy with a better appearance."

As soon as Su Nan finished speaking, Hongxiu Niangzi's face changed instantly!

This person is truly insolent!

Isn't that a blatant sarcasm directed at her?!

Just because he holds some official position, he dares to spout nonsense here!

Although Hongxiu was furious, she dared not do anything.

"Your insight is truly remarkable that you could articulate such a reasoning."

"However, Hongxiu is not feeling well and needs to go back to rest first."

After Hongxiu finished speaking, she turned around, swayed gracefully, and drifted away.

Humph.

You're so great, I'm not playing with you anymore.

She disliked these vulgar brutes and greasy officials who had no sense of chivalry and were very rude in their speech and actions.

Unlike those scholars who were gentle and refined, composing poems and treating the women in the brothels with utmost courtesy, he was different.

Everyone watched as the courtesan Hongxiu left her seat early, and then fell silent.

"You don't know what's good for you!" a night watchman said in a deep voice, his expression changing slightly.

The officials of the Grand Canal Transport Office were somewhat embarrassed and quite annoyed.

It wasn't directed at the night watchman, but at Hongxiu.

However, the Jiaofangsi (Imperial Music Bureau) was not under the jurisdiction of the Grand Canal Administration. As one of the six most beautiful courtesans in Yuzhou Jiaofangsi, Hongxiu did not need to live at the mercy of the Grand Canal Administration.

However, some of the gongs laughed and said, "Why are you angry? If anyone is losing money, it's this lady in red sleeves."

"Anyway, she looks down on us rough and uncouth men. Come on, let's drink!"
