Xue Lang was busy for several days in a row, and finally had a day of rest, King Qin had a hangover and did not wake up, only Princess Qin was in charge of a female dependent, Xue Lang was embarrassed to stay longer, so he said goodbye and went back. Princess Pingyang seems to have something to do, and she needs to stay in the Qin Palace.

Taking advantage of the rest, Xue Lang went to check on his Zhuangzi again. In this ancient world, where there were no chemical fertilizers, no pesticides, and even high-yield and disease-resistant seeds, the yield per mu was so pitiful that Xue Lang was worried, so he had to spend more effort in the cultivation process, hoping for a good harvest.

When Xue Lang came back from the farm, as soon as he entered the house, Hexiang handed over a bunch of invitations and replied in a low voice: "Da Lang, this is the invitation to invite Da Lang to the banquet on March 3, please take a look." ”

Xue Lang counted with his fingers, isn't it almost the third of March! The third day of March in the lunar calendar is the Shangsi Festival, the poet Saint Du Fu has a poem cloud, the weather is new on March 3, and there are many beautiful people on the waterside of Chang'an.

In the Tang Dynasty, the Shangsi Festival was also a national carnival, regardless of men, women and children. This day is called the Rou, that is, the sacrifice to eliminate evil, and to put it bluntly, it is to drive away evil spirits. Regardless of men, women and children, rich and poor, everyone should go to the water's edge to wash their hands, wash their feet, get rid of the evil spirit that has covered the winter, and hope that in the next year, the epidemic will not be born and the body will be healthy.

On this day, the Furong Garden and Qujiang Pond in the south of the city are as lively as the vegetable market, and the houses of the powerful or occupy a beautiful waterfront position by the Qujiang Pond in the Hibiscus Garden, set up a barricade, and hold a picnic party in which the whole family participates in men, women and children. Or let go in the Qujiang Pond and drink and have fun.

There was no effective housekeeper in Xue Lang's mansion, and no one reminded him of these Chang'an customs. Approaching the day of the Shangsi Festival, it is estimated that there is no good place in the Hibiscus Garden, and it is all occupied.

Xue Lang doesn't travel widely, and he has no interest in going to a picnic, look at this pile of invitations, Xue Lang flipped through it, Li Xiaogong, Wei Chigong, Li Gang, etc., these are the ones he knows, and there are also those who are not familiar with it, have only heard the name, know what the person looks like, and have never been there in the future.

Xue Lang said: "Hexiang, you go and help me prepare paper and pencils, and I'll reply to the post." ”

If you want to say that the banquet on March 3 is the largest, it must be the Li Tang royal family. Although Xue Lang has not yet married Princess Pingyang, he is already in the name of a concubine, and he is also a relative of the Li Tang royal family, and he is qualified to participate in the royal picnic.

Xue Lang wrote a letter to thank the person who had posted to him, and after politely declining the invitation, he waited for the royal banquet. However, I heard that it was March 3rd. People in Chang'an City, if there are ladies in the family, whether they are married or unmarried, they will come out to play.

Xue Lang touched his chin, on weekdays, the little ladies are mostly raised in the deep boudoir, and March 3 is a good opportunity to take Su Han out for a walk, maybe there will be a little lady who takes a fancy to him and chooses him as a son-in-law!

Thinking so, he was not busy writing a reply to the banquet, but wrote to Su Han first and asked him to come back first. And Su Han, who received the letter, finally rushed back on the first day of the Shangsi Festival.

"What's the matter with Youyang calling me back?"

Su Han, who was dusty, was dusty, but his spirit was not bad. Xue Lang smiled: "Two things! First, after working hard for more than half a month, you should also rest and rest, the combination of work and rest is the right way, I asked Ah Tu to prepare delicious food, treat you! ”

Su Han squinted his eyes and nodded solemnly: "Great goodness!" ”

Xue Lang joked: "Second, and the most important! I heard that on March 3rd, there are unmarried little ladies in the family will be brought out to play, go and see more, maybe you can meet your sweetheart and solve your singles problem! ”

When Su Han heard this, he hurriedly asked, "Will all the unmarried little ladies come?" ”

Xue Lang's heart moved, and he couldn't help but look at Su Han's eyes carefully, but his face was really a natural protective color, and he couldn't see it at all. I had to reply: "I heard that this is the case, this is a good opportunity for you to get off the list, don't miss it when you pass by!" ”

Su Han nodded solemnly.

Xue Lang's face was full of surprise: "Hengyu, do you already have a goal?" Planning to meet on March 3rd? ”

Su Han's face was paralyzed, and he didn't say anything, so he acquiesced, but he was probably too thin-skinned, so I'm sorry, look at Xue Lang, with a paralyzed face, and said seriously: "I'll go down and wash up first." ”

After speaking, he didn't wait for Xue Lang to speak and turned around and left, leaving Xue Lang laughing loudly-

This kid is still shy! However, Su Han, who is a foodie and a comic person, has a sweetheart, but I don't know which little lady it is! I want to know!

Xue Lang teased Su Han and let him go, and asked Hexiang to gather all the servants in the house and do a big cleaning! In this ancient world, where there was no vaccine, the epidemic prevention methods were relatively backward, and Chang'an City at this time could be malaria. Du Ruhui, the famous Fang Mou Du Duanli, died of malaria.

It's just that at this time, the dignitaries and nobles at this time, the artificial lake in the pool is almost a must-have, and there are many mosquitoes where there is water, Xue Lang specially asked Su Han for advice in order to repel mosquitoes, and planted a lot of mosquito-repellent flowers and plants at the water's edge, and the yard where he lived was also arranged, and even the indoor potted plants were personally cultivated with many mosquito-repellent flowers and plants, and he tried all means to repel mosquitoes.

It was a busy day, and the next day was March 3rd. On this day, the main roads in Chang'an City were sprinkled with water to suppress dust, and the streets were lit up on both sides.

Someone came to the palace early in the morning, and Xue Lang was really going to attend the royal picnic. It was inconvenient for Su Han to follow, so he returned to the Su family's uncle-in-law, and poor Jiang Lin was not free today, and he was still training in the army.

Before parting, Xue Lang also told Su Han in a wordy manner: "Hengyu, if you like a little lady, remember to be clever and inquire about the identity of the person, I will ask someone to help you say goodbye!" ”

Su Han blushed and nodded solemnly, with a majestic and majestic demeanor, majestic and high-spirited, accompanied by the second and third to join the Su family.

Xue Lang was stunned, and couldn't help laughing-

Where is this to see beautiful women, this is simply a posture of going out to fight!

Smiling and shaking his head, Xue Lang got into the carriage and headed towards the Hibiscus Garden. As soon as I arrived at the Furong Garden, I saw Rugui waiting at the door, and when I saw Xue Lang's carriage, I immediately greeted him: "The slave has seen the horse, and he is specially waiting for the horse here on the order of the princess, please come with the slave." ”

Xue Lang nodded with a smile and said, "Please lead the way." ”

There are too many people in the Hibiscus Garden today, and the carriage can't get in at all, so you can only get off at the door. Xue Lang led people to follow Rugui inside. I saw that in the Hibiscus Garden, by the Qujiang Pond, the place with a good location, are all built obstacles, and there are also women who make curtains with skirts and put them on the branches to do shelter, and the Tang people like bright colors, among the trees, the colorful skirts, accompanied by bursts of crisp singing and laughter, a lively scene.

Rugui took Xue Lang to a barrier and whispered, "The princess is inside, and the horse is inside." ”

Xue Lang nodded, took the food box from Changjian's hand, and walked in. There is a screen in the barrier, in front of the screen, Princess Pingyang is dressed in a water-blue dress, slumped on the couch, and a low table is placed in front of her, on which some snacks and food are placed.

"Jianling!"

Hearing Xue Lang's voice, Princess Pingyang turned around, gave him a faint smile, and said, "Coming?" Let's take a seat first, it's still early for the saint to leave the palace, let's rest by ourselves first. ”
