Chapter 392: Masked Drinking Party
On March 25th, early in the morning, the Pearl Square, which had been closed for three days, began to be full of people, and the original vast Pearl Square has changed its appearance, a high platform has been set up next to the fountain, and today's fountain is not spraying water, because the noise is too loud, hindering the competition, and around the platform, it is a semicircle to build some stepped seats, most of which are made by carpenters, a total of hundreds of seats, and they are all crude, to ensure that they are strong, it is too time-sensitive, However, the seats don't look cold, and the outside is decorated, after all, it is for members, and it can't be too cold.
The stepped seats are separated by a large gap, and the highest seats are also much lower, mainly for the convenience of those who are not seated behind. There are also many decorations around the square, which looks festive and lively.
Early in the morning, there were already several circles of guards around the square, straightening their waists as if facing a great enemy, and some curious people had already surrounded the three layers inside and three layers outside, although they couldn't see the situation inside, they could also listen to the movement, right? However, there are small merchants and hawkers on fire here, these people see that there is an opportunity, they have already stood up in advance, they have already started business in the morning, and it is only morning, and they have already made the usual day's profits, and the hawkers of Le can't close their mouths one by one.
In fact, the drinking party only started in the evening, and the competition and the drinking party were held together. Later, after this twist and turn, the small party could only be changed into a large-scale festival to be organized, and it was declared to the outside world to be called a masked drinking party. All the rules have also changed, in the morning by the bar and Xiaoxiang Pavilion jointly held a large-scale performance, as the opening ceremony, in the afternoon will be a singing competition, but in this era there is no amplification equipment, want to hold a singing competition can only be held indoors, so, in the afternoon Pearl Square or by the Xiaoxiang Pavilion to do some small programs, as a fun, and the evening is the real masked cocktail party.
But because of the temporary extension of time, therefore, all the plans have to be redone, fortunately, Xiaoxiang Hall and bars have a lot of experience, the program is not a problem, as long as the past is slightly changed, it is not a problem to train for a day or two, but it is still a little difficult to insist on a one-day performance, and there are not enough manpower, or Mei Ling sent a group of novice girls who are training to the field, which is barely enough, and Li Yi also gave a lot of ideas and helped to make some efforts, so, although the time is pressing, But it's well prepared.
In an instant, the guards on the periphery began to open a passage around the square, because the masked drinking party was about to begin!
Not long after the guards opened up the passage, one by one the "audience" with tickets began to enter, at first it was okay, they were all civilians, with crude masks, and after the accident ticket, there was an organization to start entering, but they were all very excited, this ticket but they spent a lot of effort, some prayed to the Buddha three hundred times, some spent their wives to the market shopping carnival, and some were even more desperate, for a ticket, actually went to the restaurant to eat thirty bowls of rice, of course, it was two days, but even so, It's also amazing, the civilians who can get tickets, which one of them didn't get it after five levels and six generals, and they didn't get it after exhausting their luck, can they not be excited?
Moreover, it is said that most of the people who can come in today are high-ranking officials and nobles, prominent nobles, and being able to participate in the drinking party with them is a capital that can boast for a lifetime.
Just when the civilians were almost here, the real bigwigs arrived late, and I saw them either riding horses or riding cars, hugging each other one by one, so not magnificent, but when they arrived near the square. They were all stopped, no tickets, no entry, people with membership cards can bring one to three followers, depending on the level of membership cards, and these people are all wearing masks, this is also the rule of the drinking party, it is also an insurance, after all, the people who come here are dignitaries, no matter who has an accident, it is not easy to end, now everyone is wearing masks, but also to minimize the probability of accidents, and this drinking party is originally a carnival, without masks, this group of self-proclaimed nobles will be reserved, If you don't make a drinking party, it will become a symposium, and if you wear a mask and hide yourself behind a mask, your true nature will be exposed, and it will also make the party lose so much oppression.
When the dignitaries entered, a small group of people dressed in fancy clothes and wearing strange masks were waiting in line to enter, and these people were talking in a low voice at the moment.
"Tut-tut, this kid's handwriting is getting bigger and bigger every time! The masked drinking party, he can figure it out! ”
The person who spoke was quite loud and wore a King Kong mask, if Li Yi was there, he didn't need to look at his face to know who this person was, Cheng Biting Jin's voice was a nightmare for Li Yi.
"Hehe, it's quite lively to watch!"
This person is dressed as a Confucian scholar, and his mask is also an ordinary milky white mask, but his temperament is very outstanding, it is Fang Xuanling.
"If you want me to say, since it's a drinking party, then get him hundreds of jars of old wine and put it on the square, isn't it better than anything?"
You don't need to listen to these rude words to know it, except for Cheng Biting Jin, it can only be Wei Chi Jingde.
"Hehe, what's the point of just drinking, it is said that this is made by the bar and the Xiaoxiang Pavilion together, it is estimated that there will be a lot of excitement, after all, this Xiaoxiang Pavilion has talked about a lot before."
This person who speaks with a gun and a stick has no one else except the eldest grandson Wuji, the predecessor of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion is known to everyone, but the eldest grandson Wuji directly named it, it seems that it is unintentional, who knows what An's heart is?
Moreover, since the eldest grandson Wuji said so, it means that there must be someone present who is worthy of him to say so, this Datang, with this weight, can only be Li Er.
"Okay, Xiaoxiang Pavilion is the past after all, so don't mention it now!"
Li Eryi spoke, and everyone whispered.
"Alas! We can be lively, but these people can only join in the fun, which is not beautiful. ”
A female voice suddenly came out, and the only one who could speak on such an occasion could only be Queen Changsun, and besides, Queen Changsun spoke out in time and changed the topic, which was also to help the elder brother Changsun Wuji, Changsun Wuji's little trick just now didn't seem to be good, Li Er's tone, Queen Changsun was too familiar.
"There is no way, the incident happened in a hurry, it is not easy for Yi Boy to do this, it is estimated that it will be much better in the coming year!"
At this time, the one who pleaded for mercy was naturally Fang Xuanling.
"Hmph, this drinking party is not made by that kid, in the final analysis, it is the kid's fault, if it weren't for him donating all the money for the tickets, the old man would not have rested with him, a small drinking party, not only interfered with the people's livelihood, but also made His Majesty leave the court early, and the ministers ignored the government, which is really ridiculous!"
Wei Zheng, except for him, no one else is so fucked, sure enough, as soon as Wei Zheng's voice fell, everyone's bodies were stiff, and their faces under the mask were a little unnatural.
