Jinzhou

For several days, it rained heavily, and there was a lot of grumbling everywhere.

In the mansion of the prefect of Jinzhou, the warbler sang softly, and the sound of malaise was endless.

"Second son, you are eccentric, you don't drink your sister's wine and don't drink the slave's family." The delicate sound in the room makes people's hearts soften.

"Good, good, drink yours, drink yours."

In the wing, three women with heavy makeup and glamorous and revealing bones surrounded a man with loose hair, disheveled clothes, and misty eyes. The aroma of wine, the smell of fat powder is overflowing, and the flowing water melons and fruits are scattered all over the place, a mess.

One of the women stretched out her thin hand and drew a circle on the man's chest, and the man grabbed it and finally nibbled it gently.

What Chen Yi saw when he came to report was such an unsightly picture. It is said that the second son of the minister is lustful, and it is so absurd in broad daylight that everyone has long been surprised, Chen Yi came to help this time, even if he was dissatisfied in his heart, he did not dare to show half a point.

"Second son, it has been raining heavily for several days, and many mountains in the mountains have collapsed, do you want to stop at the mine?"

"The speed of the mine is already slow, and the shutdown has delayed the progress, who is responsible." The man's lazy and rugged voice came from the pile of fat powder.

"But the form in the mountains is changeable, if something happens......" Chen Yi was very worried.

"Afraid of what? I'm going to take my life, what's the matter? I, Qin Ziang, still need you to teach me how to do things. Qin Ziang pulled down his face impatiently.

"Yes, the subordinates know, and the subordinates retire." Chen Yi looked at Qin Ziang, who was drunk and puffed, and retreated respectfully.

Out of the prefect's mansion, Chen Yi rode all the way to the mine in the south. The mine is surrounded by high mountains, covered with large forests, in order to prevent outsiders from discovering, the cover is extremely hidden, only a small road can lead to the bottom of the mountain, and the outer perimeter of the mine changes guards every day, and the protection work is very meticulous.

After several days of heavy rain, the land around the mined mine became sparse, and the mood of the workers who worked overtime in the heavy rain was also very impetuous.

"It's raining so hard, and the boss won't let us rest and rest." It was a dark-skinned young man of fifteen or sixteen, dressed in a short shirt and carrying a burden with his sturdy arms.

The line of sight in the mine was dim and narrow, and the two people staggered one after the other, and the workers came and went in an orderly manner.

"It's not, who can stand it if you rush to work day and night." The two friends complained.

"Hey, why do you think these people are mining so many stones? It's still so tightly covered. The young man looked at the dense black cloth on his burden and was curious.

"Who knows? We're going to take care of shipping it, so what's the matter! The leader said that it won't be long before it will be over, so let's take the money and don't ask so much. ”

"Well, you're right." The guy smiled.

Chen Yi walked around the mine, looked at the mountain, and felt relieved, the eldest prince asked him to help the second son, he had to keep an eye on it, but don't have an accident at this juncture.

Back in the mine, Chen Yi found Steward Wu.

"How's it going today?"

"Chen Huwei rest assured, what is purified today is twice as much as that of the previous days, and it has been shipped out."

Steward Wu is the confidant of the prefect, and he is responsible for the refining of silver ore, and he does it very carefully, which is deeply liked by Qin Ziang, so he is also very respectful in front of Chen Yi.

"Well, it's not easy for too many people to know about it." Chen Yi nodded with satisfaction.

"The one who took the lead in transporting it was a distant relative of mine, who was very reliable, and you can rest assured that I will do my job." Steward Wu said confidently.

"That's good, the weather is bad these days, you keep an eye on it, don't have an accident at such an important juncture." Chen Yi confessed seriously.

 "Yes, you can rest assured. ”

Chen Yi looked around, there was nothing abnormal, and he left with confidence.

 Rain can be a good way to hide the trail and let everything go on quietly in the dark.

Today is the birthday of the god of flowers, and the streets and alleys are filled with laughter.

Yan Suye came to Qingge's room early in the morning and asked Qingge to go to the Flower Temple.

"Sister Qingge, get up quickly, let's wait to go to the Flower Temple, it must be very lively today."

"Why don't you go?" Qingge yawned and lay on the bed not wanting to move.

"I've never seen the flower god sacrifice before, so let's go and see it!" Yan Suye half-squatted in front of Qingge's window, blinking his eyes.

"If you find Banxia to accompany you, she will definitely be willing." Qingge gave Su Ye a move.

"Banxia is in the Yamen, if my father knows that I am looking for Banxia because of personal matters, he will definitely be scolded."

"I really don't want to move, my sister Su Ye." Qingge is sore now, he practiced too hard last night, and the prince's attendants really can't do it casually.

"Oh well! I'll see if my brother has time. Yan Suye lowered his face.

"Hey, forget it, I'll go with you! By the way, I also joined in the fun. Seeing that Su Ye was lost, Qingge still got up.

The two packed up and planned to go out, but happened to run into Yan Sangyun who was returning to the room.

"Where are you going?" Yan Sangyun looked at the two of them, his sister was elated, and Qingge was listless.

"Brother, we're going to the Flower Temple, do you want to be together?"

"Flower Temple?"

"Yes, today is the birthday of the god of flowers, and it must be fun to hold a sacrifice." Yan Suye's eyes lit up, expecting Yan Sangyun to agree, after all, one more person is more lively.

"Okay, you wait for me, I'll go change my clothes." It's rare to see my sister so happy, and besides, he hasn't been in the capital for a long time, so it's good to get acquainted with it.

Yan Suye clapped his hands happily, "Okay, then brother go quickly." ”

The previous flower goddess Feng He died innocently and tragically, and the title of the new flower goddess fell to the second-ranked Aster, and today's flower god sacrifice was completed by her.

Water Moon Pavilion

"Miss, it's just a sacrificial dress, do you want to change it now?"

Ziyuan was grooming in front of the bronze mirror, and the woman in the mirror had peach cheeks and willow eyes, smiling charmingly.

"Put it there! One will say. Shion raised her slender jade fingers and stroked her face, carefully examining her beautiful face.

"Yes, miss, the slave went out first." The little girl retreated respectfully and stood outside the door.

"It's mine, it's still mine, it's still mine." Aster smiled charmingly.

"Don't be too happy, don't forget what to do today."

A figure appeared silently behind Shion.

"I know that since I am cooperating with you, I will fulfill the agreement." Shion looked at the person in the bronze mirror with a calm expression.

"That's good, everything goes according to plan." The figure disappeared again without a trace.

Shion looked back at the clothes on the table and smiled silently.

Dongcheng is very lively today, most of the people coming and going from the south to the north are young men and women, and the streets are crowded with people, and there is an endless stream. The roadside vendors were also shouting vigorously, and at first glance, it was festive.

"Sister Qingge, you see, it's so lively, it's really right to come out." Yan Suye happily looked around.

"It's quite lively." Qingge, who didn't have much energy, changed his mood in an instant after seeing such a scene.

"Sister Qingge, the sacrifice will take a while, let's go around first, okay."

"Okay, let's go! Let's take a look at the front. ”

"Well, let's go." Yan Suye took Qingge's hand and left with a smile.

"Brother, hurry up and keep up." Yan Suye beckoned and shouted without looking back.

Yan Sangyun shook his head, smiled and followed, he came out today without a guard, and as the only male, he had to protect the two girls.

Ye Qingge and Yan Suye were chatting happily, and Qingge was gently patted on the back.

Qingge turned around and saw a pair of big eyes with double pupils staring at her.

"Banxia, what's wrong with you?"

"You didn't call me when you came out, and you asked me what's wrong?" Lin Banxia patted Qingge's shoulder with the sword in his hand to show his dissatisfaction.

"I thought we didn't call you when you were on duty, why, don't you have to go to the yamen today?" Qingge pinched Banxia's little face.

"Today is my rest, go to look for you, Mrs. Yan said that you all came out, I rushed over non-stop, but fortunately I caught up." Banxia stepped forward and grabbed Qingge's other hand.

"By the way, you should attend last year's flower god festival, or tell us about it?"

"What, there were too many people in the Flower Temple last year, and I was afraid that something would happen, so the people from the entire yamen were sent out to inspect and didn't look at it."

"What a pity! Do you think Banxia can tell us something fun? Yan Suye was a little disappointed.

"Well, wouldn't it be more interesting to see for yourself! With so many people with you, aren't you happy? Qingge comforted.

"That's right." Su Ye smiled.

The three of them walked side by side in front, with different postures, flowers and moon appearances, forming a beautiful landscape and attracting countless admiring eyes.

"Stand back, stand back, the flower goddess's float is coming."

There was a shouting from the crowd, and the crowd on the side of the road retreated, leaving the middle road.

After a while, I saw a carriage coming slowly. The carriage was pulled by three horses side by side, the carriage was covered with a thin light veil, the veil was pink and soft, swaying with the wind, and the light gauze was dotted with countless delicate flowers, which were arranged in an orderly manner from top to bottom, and they were very beautiful.

The woman sitting in the float has high temples, the jasper hairpin is commensurate with the golden step, and the white jade beads are a little bright. Dressed in a white gauze skirt, slightly powdered, red lips are not dotted but red, delicate and charming. There is a smile at the corner of the mouth, and the eyes are full of anticipation and seductiveness.

"It is worthy of being a flower goddess, and her posture is charming." Qingge couldn't help but praise.

"Really? Beautiful women are the most deceiving, don't you know Qingge? Banxia stared at the woman in the float and smiled mockingly.

"What? This woman ......" Qingge and Banxia glanced at each other.

"As far as the ending is concerned, isn't it the best proof that the person on the float is her?"

"The truth of the matter is always unknown, let's just be a melon-eating crowd." Qingge smiled faintly.

"Sister Qingge, what are you talking about? What do people eat melons? Yan Suye asked curiously.

"Eating melons? Do you think melons are so delicious? ”

Qingge put his hand on Banxia's shoulder: "It's delicious or not, you will know if you eat it." ”

The two laughed and looked at the float in front of them.
