Chapter 6 The Red Iris

Because of the beautiful and enchanting appearance of irises has attracted many people to come to watch, when the flowers bloom, the charm fragrance overflows and can be used to treat a variety of stubborn diseases and is sought after, is to iris in Wancheng is the premier flower overlord, is rich as peony, beautiful as roses are not as good as it.

Among them, the flower body stamen is golden, it is the best red gold iris in the irises, not to mention the ornamental value, its medicinal value alone is a hundred times or even a thousand times that of the ordinary irises, once upon a time in Wancheng, because of the special geographical environment, the best red gold irises will also grow into a several, all of which are collected by the major flower gardens in Wancheng.

Until five years ago, the first queen was seriously ill, it was already precarious, the first hospital for the first queen to open a prescription, the main medicinal material in it is the red gold irises, the first emperor at that time ordered people to buy at a high price, at that time the major flower gardens in Wancheng were all sold, after all, the price given by the royal family is only high, and even if it is dried, the shelf life will not be too long, so they are all sold, the first queen used the medicine prepared by the hospital really improved, which made the first emperor very happy, so he ordered the flower gardens in Wancheng to only plant irises, and as much as there is in the palace.

It's just that the first queen has been sick for three years, not only the red gold irises in Wancheng have been bought, but also all the ordinary irises have been basically bought out and still have not been saved, after the death of the first emperor, the first queen died in the first year of the new emperor's accession to the throne.

Today's Wancheng has experienced three years of crazy planting irises, and now the land has been damaged a lot, not only are the flowers not as good as before, but the varieties are not complete, especially the irises, very few can survive in the end, and most of the survivors are not good-looking, not to mention the best red gold irises.

These palace affairs happened five years ago, at that time, Liu Yan was still the first maid favored by the old lady in the Jingyuan Marquis's mansion, and naturally she could know a thing or two, but she never thought that the irises in Wancheng would wither to this point.

Liu Yan recalled that the man who had never spoken gently pulled the child in front of him behind him, although the child was a little reluctant, he still pouted and stood beside the son to visit.

"Boss Lin, it's my younger brother who is difficult for you, it's just that my mother is seriously ill and urgently needs red gold irises into medicine, a few years ago, I also heard a little, today's Wancheng is indeed no longer suitable for planting irises, but presumably you should also have ordinary irises, and I hope you can take out the collection of irises, and buy them at a high price to solve the urgent need in the next." The words were frank and unrestrained, first apologizing for the boy's recklessness, and then seducing the merchants present at a high price, which made people unbearable to refuse, which was really clever.

Everyone rushed to ask the man about the price, after all, they still had ordinary irises in stock, and the man was very good-natured and told them one by one, and then the man seemed to have found something, and turned his head to look in the direction where Liu Yan was, and looked at Liu Yan who was motionless and stunned in place, and did not come to bargain because of his words, although it was a little strange, he still smiled politely, and then continued to answer the questions of the people around him.

But Liu Yan looked at the man blankly, half loudly, and then let out a breath leisurely, it was him! It turned out to be him! Sure enough, it was him!

Listening to the man's voice before, Liu Yan was already stunned in place, although it has been three years, but the gentle and humble voice blows into Liu Yan's heart like a spring breeze as before.

The royal blue gown, the neat cloud-turning boots, the long black hair like brocade neatly raised, the eyebrows and starry eyes, the tall straight nose is a slightly thin lip, and the smile is so warm and soft that it is almost fake, it was just a glimpse before, and Liu Yan has already sketched his appearance in his mind.

Everything is as if it was before, he has not changed in the slightest, he is still so gentle, he can still easily capture everyone's hearts, and he is still so polite, but she has changed, if it wasn't for the incident three years ago, maybe she would have jumped up and down in front of him by now and saluted delicately: "Master Hou!" "But now, does he remember her? Remember her three years later?

Yes, the man in front of him is Jingyuan Marquis Bailijin, the hereditary marquis of the Dayong Dynasty in the past dynasties, and the noble marquis.

It's just that his appearance is too gentle and gentle, so people don't dare and can't put such a noble status on him, just as he is the noble son of a big family, and now he is asking for flowers for his mother, presumably the old lady is sick.

Thinking of the old lady who has hurt herself for many years, Liu Yan is heart aches, if you say that the best person in the Hou Mansion to her, it is this old lady, since she was rescued by the Hou Ye into the house as a maid at the age of eight, she was spoiled by the old lady in the palm of her hand, and the food and clothing are twice the specifications of the big girl, and the lowly concubines in other houses are not comparable to the usual dress, and the young lady of the merchant is not much different, because of the old lady's favor, Liu Yan's temperament is gradually a little pampered, fortunately the Hou Ye is also a good temper, Just when she is flamboyant, she is not restrained, and she is a character that no one dares to provoke in the house.

It's just that now, the old lady is sick, and Liu Yan still wants to do her part, and by the way, she will go into the Hou Mansion to find out what happened three years ago.

Thinking like this, Liu Yan slowly walked towards Bai Lijin, who was surrounded by the crowd, even if she was surrounded by people, she was still chic and wanton, without the slightest omission, she was really a noble son.

Liu Yan sighed, and then said lightly: "The red golden irises can't be planted here, it doesn't mean that the seeds can't be picked in the next place, since the son has the heart to find flowers for his mother, why not find some seeds to find a place to plant, it's like wasting time here." Liu Yan's voice was not loud, but it seemed to have a kind of magic power, faintly floating down the air and in everyone's ears.

Suddenly, there was a brief silence in the lively scene, but after a while, everyone turned to the person who spoke, Liu Yan wore a light crescent colored dress, her long hair was tied up high and tied into a bun, only decorated with a jasper hairpin, between the eyebrows and eyes, there was no arrogance of the ordinary noble son, at a glance, it was crystal clear, but there seemed to be an omniscient look scanning everyone, under the delicate nose was a slightly hooked lip corner, the beauty between men and women with a trace of refined elegance and indifferent charm, although Liu Yan's appearance was not as good as Baili Jin, The outfit is not very extravagant, but it has a natural indifferent temperament, standing between the crowd, holding the fan, ignoring everything around, just looking at Baili Jin lightly, the clothes and outfits are very similar to Baili Jin, and the people who have the intention to compare the two don't know how to compare for a while, if it weren't for Liuyan's indifferent temperament and Baili Jin's warmth is a little incompatible, everyone is a little unable to distinguish between the two.

Although Liu Yan is the maid of the Hou Mansion, after all, she is also in the mansion, and her tall and cold and arrogant temperament is not comparable to the young ladies of ordinary people, and Baili Jin is even more so, which made the onlookers stunned for a while.
