Chapter Seventy-Three: The Great Canon
There were still two days before arriving in Gicheng, and the team found a private inn in the small city to settle down.
Behind the inn is a shallow river, and Ye Lingyi is washing her face by the river.
After running around for a long time, the thought of finally returning to Gicheng now, her heart felt relaxed and happy, as if even the oncoming wind was extremely sweet.
People are really strange creatures, the place she once hated so much and wanted to escape from is now a place of longing for her heart because of someone.
Recalling the scenes of Tianxin's home in the past, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise, and her face was full of sweetness that couldn't be hidden.
"What are you thinking?" A female voice rang out out of thin air.
There was the sound of brisk footsteps coming from behind him.
Looking back, it's Le Ya.
"Nothing!" Ye Lingyi quickly hid her emotions and stood up: "Is there something wrong?" ”
Le Ya hid her hands behind her back, stared at Ye Lingyi's eyes with speculation on her face, and smiled: "No, I just want to ask, do you want to go to the Roselle Ceremony?" Thirty brothers, their group of bachelors are going to go, and I want to go too, but I'm embarrassed to go alone, so I want to invite you to join me. ”
"Roselle?"
Ye Lingyi obviously didn't know what this canon was.
"You don't know the Roselle Canon?" Le Ya was slightly surprised, and then explained: "The Luo Shen Ceremony is the grandest festival in the Western Dynasty!" On this day, the people will put lights along the river, in order to pray for good wind and rain, and then the eldest in the county will add blessings to the blessing lamp, and then the boat-sized blessing lamp will go downstream, and the riverside is full of young girls, and the blessing lamp floats to whom, who is the chosen Roselle of this year's Roselle ceremony. ”
Ye Lingyi felt funny when she heard it: "Is there any point in being this Luoshen?" ”
Seeing her disapproving attitude, Le Ya was a little annoyed: "Why is it meaningless?" How glorious should it be to be the Chosen One? Do you know how yearning the women of the Western Dynasty are? Moreover, the elected Roselle will have the opportunity to ...... with the River Bo Chapel."
Le Ya accidentally revealed her true purpose and covered her mouth in embarrassment.
Ye Lingyi stared at her with a smile: "Do you want to be Luoshen?" ”
"This ......" Le Ya gestured timidly, and then nodded after a while, with a flattering expression on his face: "I'm really embarrassed to be alone, can you accompany me?" Please, good girl......"
grabbed Ye Lingyi's arm and shook it, Le Ya looked like she would regret it for the rest of her life if she didn't go today.
Ye Lingyi was slightly surprised, and withdrew her arm from her hand: "Why don't you go with Chen Thirty if you want to go so much?" Didn't you say he went too? ”
"Just him?" Le Ya suddenly spat out with a disgusted expression, "A group of bachelors who don't understand the amorous feelings, I don't want to be with him!" I was seen and misunderstood, how wronged am I? Let's talk ...... again."
"What?"
I don't know why, Ye Lingyi suddenly felt that Chen Thirty was a little pitiful, why was he so disgusted by Le Ya?
Le Ya snorted for a while, her cheeks flushed, and her shyness overflowed: "I want to officially express my heart to Ah Che tonight!" ”
When these words were spoken, the kind smile on Ye Lingyi's face instantly froze, and she stared at Le Ya intently.
"Green kites?"
Seeing her in a daze, Le Ya shook her hand in front of her eyes.
Ye Lingyi came back to her senses suddenly, her expression already stiffened.
"What's wrong with you?"
Leya wondered.
"No ......" Ye Lingyi lowered her head, sorted out her facial expressions, and looked up again, and the stiffness was gone: "You decided?" ”
Le Ya nodded, her eyes full of longing: "Anyway, sooner or later, I have to say it!" I plan to become Roselle tonight, and then take the opportunity to confess to Ah Che! ”
"But are you sure that tonight's Roselle must be you?"
Speaking of this, Le Ya suddenly smiled flatteringly: "No." So I'm not here to beg you! You're a practitioner, there must be a way to make the blessing lamp fall on me, right? ”
Beg?
She's a good word! The latter sentence makes it clear that she must do it!
Ye Lingyi smiled helplessly.
Seeing that she was noncommittal, Le Ya began to lie coquettishly: "Good girl, you have pity on me, this time you have to help me no matter what, you will definitely help me, right?" After all, my background is miserable, unlike a good family like you, I came out of the land of wind and dust, and it is my lifelong wish to marry a good family! You're so kind-hearted and good-tempered, you'll definitely help me, right? ”
Marry a ...... Good guys?
She actually downplayed the aristocratic high-ranking family as a "good family"? Even if you kidnap her morally, you want to marry into a high gate like the Taishi Mansion?
Does she look up to her Ye Lingyi too much?
Ye Lingyi's smile became more and more helpless: "Le Ya, it seems that you really misunderstood me!" I've had a lot of blood on my hands, I'm not a good person, and I'm very hot-tempered, so don't think that if you ask me, I'll help you! I don't have that much power, and I don't plan to have it! If you wish, I can accompany you, but only to go, I will never do anything for you! So don't get your hopes up too much! Also, I advise you not to make any small moves, after all, it is a grand event of the Western Dynasty, and any clumsy tricks will not escape the eyes of the masses! ”
After listening to her words, Le Ya's face suddenly turned ugly, and she asked loudly: "Why?" I'm begging you in a low voice! Why can't you help me? Could it be that you like Ah Che too? ”
Ye Lingyi didn't want to explain to her, so she bypassed her to leave.
After only walking a few steps, he turned back and looked at Le Ya, whose shoulders were rising and falling due to his gradually heavy breathing, and said: "By the way, I think Helian Escort and you are just meeting in Pingshui, he shouldn't like you to call him "Ah Che", so you should not call him that in the future, lest others hear and think how close your relationship is!" ”
Le Ya was so angry that she gritted her teeth tightly, twisted her body violently, and heard Ye Lingyi add: "Oh yes, this is my advice to you as a servant girl!" After all, I know the rules of the Taishifu better than you, and if you let the Taishi know that you call Helian the Guard...... When the time comes, it's not just about advice! You don't want to get into trouble, do you? ”
She deliberately emphasized the title of Helian Che, clearly asking Le Ya to recognize the reality.
Although Le Ya didn't want to admit it, she had nothing to say, so she could only stare at Ye Lingyi with hatred, hiding her hands in her sleeves, and the tighter she clenched them.
Ye Lingyi was not interested in looking at her again, hooked the corners of her lips and smiled, and left!
At night, a small street in front of the inn is really lively.
Ye Lingyi stayed in the room, and he didn't plan to join in the fun, but Li Yuanlin sent someone to pass it on, so he had to tidy up and go downstairs.
From afar, I saw a few people with extraordinary temperament standing at the door of the inn, a young man in the center stood facing the door, a plain ink dress with the wind blowing, a long body, black hair like ebony charcoal, with a jade head and tooth hairpin tightly tied to the top of the head, plain soap, face like a crown of jade, lips like smeared Zhu, rich and handsome, out of the dust and immortals, attracted many passing girls to be shy and timid, eyes still ......
Ye Lingyi glanced out and waved his hands calmly: "Your Majesty!" ”
The ink-colored figure was shocked, turned around, and looked at her with a smile: "It's here." ”
"I don't know what the emperor commands?"
"What do you think of this?"
Li Yuanlin moved away slightly, and there was a lively scene behind him.
Ye Lingyi lowered her head slightly: "Slave and maid are dull, listen to Le Ya say, today is the Roselle Ceremony." ”
"Yes! Although the Luo Shen Ceremony was a grand event in the Western Dynasty, it was the first time I had encountered such a grand occasion after living in seclusion at the palace gate on weekdays. Li Yuanlin paused slightly, his eyes lit up: "Can you accompany me to take a look around?" ”
"But ......" Ye Lingyi looked around, and was embarrassed: "The crowd is dense, I am afraid that there is a crisis lurking, in case there is a thief who misbehaves against the emperor......"
Hearing that she was worried about his comfort, Li Yuanlin smiled heartily, and his eyes motioned to several generals around: "There are them!" No problem! ”
Ye Lingyi was still not at ease: "For the sake of safety, the slave and maid are brave, and I implore the emperor to let Helian escort go with him." ”
She swore that she really said this sentence only because Helian Che's martial arts were above her and the group of generals, after all, if something really happened to Li Yuanlin, she would be to blame, she said this completely to save her life.
didn't think about it, but when it came to Li Yuanlin's ears, the taste changed.
"Do you care so much about him? Can't live without him for a moment? ”
Li Yuanlin's eyes couldn't help but swell through the slightest pain, and he endured it for a moment.
"Your Majesty, I didn't mean that, I ......"
Ye Lingyi opened his mouth to explain, but Li Yuanlin didn't want to listen, turned around and walked towards the bizarre street, and a military general Lang followed suit.
Leaving Ye Lingyi alone in the same place, he wondered: Why does he seem to be jealous? Is it a delusion?
Not daring to think about it, for fear that he would not be able to keep up with the pace of the boss, Ye Lingyi trotted towards a crowd.
The street market is lively, pedestrians walk through the streets under the ancient archway, the street is full of lanterns, all kinds of vendors along the street shout loudly, all kinds of gadgets are dazzling, attracting pairs of girls and boys to come over to watch, children playing.
What a lively sight!
Even though Ye Lingyi felt that everything was so novel, she didn't dare to show her curiosity at this moment, so she had to look ahead.
From the beginning, Li Yuanlin has been gloomy with his whole face, obviously with a pair of long legs, but he prefers to walk slowly across the street, attracting the side eyes of many people, but no one dares to look at him more, as if he is afraid that the cloudy fresh-clothed Langjun will be unhappy and will affect the pond fish.
Ye Lingyi silently followed behind several generals, subconsciously covering the injuries he had seen these days.
Before they knew it, they had walked to the river where they prayed.
This is a small river that runs through the city, the embankment is not very high, and there is a weeping willow every dozen steps, and next to the weeping willow is a stone step that extends down to the surface of the river.
At this time, the riverside was already crowded with people watching the excitement, and there were many brightly dressed girls on the stone steps putting river lanterns, all praying that they could be favored by the god of luck and be the famous Lord Roselle of the city.
Ye Lingyi didn't care much about the crowd of onlookers, but he didn't expect to see Chen Thirty's rough man in the crowd at a glance.
And they are ...... at this time Competing with a large group of girls for the most eye-catching position on the stone steps by the river?
Is there any mistake? Could it be that this group of rough men also wants to be Roselle Niangniang?
Especially Chen Thirty, a man with five big and three thick is squeezed in the "flowers", and he is sweating profusely because he can't squeeze others, relying on his large physique to barely grab a place, but there is a danger of being squeezed out at any time
Suddenly, the crowd fluctuated, Chen Thirty's heels moved slightly, and he almost lost his precarious position, and when he stabilized his mind, his face was as ridiculous as he was.
Ye Lingyi secretly made up the picture of Chen Thirty wearing women's clothes cos roselle, scratching his leg hair while picking his nostrils, that was really ...... It's so beautiful, so beautiful that it makes people's backs go straight to goosebumps.
Ye Lingyi couldn't help but laugh, and couldn't help but look at it a few more times.
At this time, Chen Thirty also looked at her.
Ye Lingyi was slightly stunned, and when she came back to her senses, she had to smile and nod her head.
Originally, it was just a greeting among acquaintances, but I didn't expect that Chen Thirty was excited, seeing the appearance of the savior, and explaining something to the little brother behind him, the little brother who was standing in the girl's pile and swore to defend the eldest brother immediately ran over after listening to it.
"Miss Qingkite, my eldest family has something to ask you to help, please be sure to come over!"
Ancient gangsters are ancient gangsters, and the tone of asking for help is so tough! Even Li Yuanlin, the emperor, was never taken seriously.
But Ye Lingyi was still Li Yuanlin's maid after all, and immediately cast an inquiring glance at the master's house.
Seeing that he didn't mean to object, he asked, "What is your boss doing?" ”
The younger brother wanted to speak and stopped, but he only said that it was difficult to speak, so he ignored Li Yuanlin's eyes and dragged Ye Lingyi towards Chen Thirty.
