Main Chapter 61: Shangyue Hundred Flowers Festival
Lan Zeyun followed Du Luo all the way and walked slowly. Duluo seemed to be in a good mood, and he didn't dislike Lan Zeyun's speed. Somehow, there was a little more harmony in plainness.
"Sir, where are we going?"
"Go to Longhua."
Lan Zeyun's whole person seemed to have been struck by lightning, and he stood in place a little distracted, unable to move. Longhua, what a familiar two words, I don't know how many joys and sorrows are contained in them.
Lan Zeyun only felt a little sad, it was really fate, turning around, and coming back again.
Du Luo looked at Lan Zeyun and said with some doubts
"What? You don't want to go? ”
Lan Zeyun was not as humble as usual, and suddenly pleaded with Du Luo
"That's right! I don't want to go! Not at all! ”
When Du Luo heard this, he didn't ask much, but said briskly
"Then change places, let me think about it, go to Shangyue Country, now the human world is divided, the countries around Longhua have been annexed by Longhua, only the north is relatively stable, just go there, it's not bad to listen to a little song."
"Annexation?"
"Ahh Speaking of which, the little doll in Longhua is really good, and it has the style of being a human emperor. ”
A name echoed on Lan Zeyun's lips, and she still remembered that under the moonlight of Xifeng Courtyard one night, she seemed to have talked to Xi Yuan about this matter, she said that Xi Yuan was not a thing in the pool, and now it seems that it has come true.
"What about the people? In the midst of war, the most innocent is the common people. ”
When Duluo heard this, he looked at Lan Zeyun again, this girl is really different, speaking of Bozhong, neither blindly favoring Bozhong, nor echoing the other party, but asking the reason, and then making judgments, now talking about the war in the human world, not considering the war situation, but first caring about the people of Dawn, what a wonderful person!
Duluo was sighing, and suddenly thought of what Lan Zeyun had done in the back mountain, his face darkened, and he thought in his heart: It's better to settle the balance quickly, no matter how wonderful it is, there is no value of your own porcelain!
"That little doll did a good job, most of them did not waste a single soldier, only ran around lobbying to take the city, even if it was necessary to send troops, he repeatedly warned the soldiers not to kill innocents indiscriminately, which was deeply popular with the people. And the brain is good, after those small countries belong to Longhua, the economic circulation is becoming more and more prosperous, and the people are getting better and better. It is really strategic, and it is rare to be benevolent. ”
After hearing this, Lan Zeyun couldn't help but feel a little relieved in his heart
"He's always been like this, and he's not something in the pool."
Du Luo didn't hear it clearly, and only saw some different emotions on Lan Zeyun's face
"You... Say what? ”
"I said Joetsu is a good place, let's go quickly."
Du Luo nodded when he heard this, then approached Lan Zeyun, and stretched out his slender hand to hold Lan Zeyun's cold little hand.
Lan Zeyun was startled by Du Luo's sudden move, his body shook, and he immediately spoke up
"What are you doing?!"
"What are you doing, you can't see it? Pull you! ”
“…… Sir, you know that men and women don't kiss, you really have a good part of doing this! ”
Duluo looked at Lan Zeyun's nervous appearance, and couldn't help but smile before laughing
"Oh? Really? You think I'm going to do it
What the? Joetsu is so far from here, do you want to walk there? ”
Lan Zeyun now understood, presumably there must be a way to fall...... It's embarrassing.
Du Luo took out a small and delicate white crane carved with white jade from his cuffs, threw it into the air, and in an instant, the white crane made of jade turned into a huge and agile living bird!
With a light touch on his toes, he pulled Lan Zeyun and gently stepped on the bird's back. The white crane flashed its wings and soared up to 90,000 miles. The speed is like a gale, like lightning.
………………………………………
In the territory of Shangyue Kingdom, dressed in a black brocade robe, the extraordinary bearing of the stunning son stood tall and upright at the city gate, the ink eyebrows are picturesque, the eyes are falling stars, the nose is like a green peak, the facial features are a stunning work of ingenuity, floating green silk is like a newly made black brocade in the hand of the brocade girl, and the thin lips are curved with a hint of smile. Its glow is as bright as the sun and the moon. Pianpian gentleman, the light of Zeze, a smile, not vulgar, self-contained style.
Only the left wrist gently dragged a piece of silk, and the other end of the silk followed a beautiful and moving woman in red, looking at the face like a peach petal, the skin like condensed fat, and the eyebrows dyed with green ink. Only the eyes are a little hollow, and there is a little less agility.
As soon as the two of them stopped there, it was a dazzling scenery, and passers-by cast envious glances.
There were more voices around, gongs and drums were noisy, lively, shouting and selling, one after another, Lan Zeyun instantly felt a little popular
"Sir? What's so happy on this street, listening to such a buzz? ”
Duluo looked around, his eyes stopped at a three-story teahouse, and he was in a good mood
"That's right, today is the ninth day of the ninth month of September, which coincides with the Shangyue Hundred Flowers Festival!"
Lan Zeyun sneezed, some cool breeze penetrated in, a few days ago in Huangquan only felt that the four seasons were like spring, and the back mountain was refreshing and warm at any time, as if there would be no four seasons in general, today's wind is a bit autumnal, it turned out to be September.
"It turned out to be the Hundred Flowers Festival. I don't know if I can see a product of Panxue returning to people this year. ”
Du Luo raised his eyebrows lightly, glanced at Lan Zeyun obliquely, and said with interest
"Yo ~ is a connoisseur, this hope that the snow returns to the people is the holy product in the peony, it is not easy to cultivate, even if it is summer, looking at the whole world, there are not a few, not to mention autumn, although the Shangyue people are proficient in planting flowers out of season, but this fresh hall has not been seen for many years."
It is said that the most amazing and peculiar thing in this Shangyue country is the autumn flower festival, and the research of the people of Shangyue on flowers is definitely the first in the world, especially the flower banquet that emerges one after another in this anti-seasonal season, which is a must. In spring, you can see the chrysanthemums in autumn, in summer, you can see the fragrant plums in winter, and in autumn, you can enjoy the grand occasion of a hundred flowers blooming. Therefore, this Hundred Flowers Festival can be regarded as a rare feast in the world and a famous feast!
Lan Zeyun said frankly: "Mr. Mozan, I am not an expert, but I was fortunate to accompany my parents to see it once when I was a child." ”
The two said, and entered the teahouse, Du Luo didn't like the noisy, so he went straight to a small private room in the middle of nowhere, the two sat down, and the servants and maids who came and went lit the fine red sandalwood incense, and took some tea and fruit snacks and retreated.
"Looks like the gentleman is a regular here."
"The days are boring, and I often come and go, so I just pass the time."
Downstairs was full of joy
Laughter, suddenly there was a muffled sound, and everyone was silent, it was the sound of the slate stone on the main stage, and I thought it was a job.
Sure enough, the old man in a spacious robe took a leisurely sip of tea and cleared his throat, and everyone stopped talking, ready to listen to the book.
I saw that the old man who told the story raised the slab stone in his hand again, and said in a loud voice
"It's the annual Hundred Flowers Festival, this time let's talk about the story of the Hundred Flowers Festival a hundred years ago! Saying that a hundred years ago, the people of Shangyue mastered the craft of planting flowers out of season, but they could only pick up some simple and common flowers and plants, until one day, Shangyue came a graceful nobleman---- away from the twilight snow, away from the lady! ”
"This is from the lady is spring, it is April in the world, Tao Yao Feifei, from the lady wore a pink pleated tunic skirt, people are born that is called a white skin and beautiful, the country and the city, since stepping into the upper country, it has hooked the souls of countless men, I heard that from the lady walking with incense, a smile is moving, living is a fairy down to earth!"
The old storyteller spoke eloquently and vividly. Everyone below exclaimed in surprise when they heard this, and they all had some yearning, and the old man took a sip of tea with great satisfaction and continued
"This fair lady since ancient times, the gentleman is good, and the lady is beautiful, and there are many people who pursue it, not only Shangyue, but even neighboring countries have sent people to show their beauty. None of this! What's more, I don't know where to learn the flower cultivation craft from the lady, and the flowers grown from her hands are the best of the best flowers! After a long time, everyone in Shangyue Kingdom gave her a good name--- Baihua Niang. Under her leadership, more and more flowers are planted in the off-season, and the varieties are becoming more and more precious, and the Hundred Flowers Festival is becoming more and more lively, and the reputation is spreading farther and farther! It was supposed to be a happy event for the whole country to celebrate, but later... This Baihua Niang is trapped by love, and suddenly Xiang Xiaoyu died! ”
The storyteller's eyes were sad and regretful, which caused everyone below to ask the reason.
Lan Zeyun touched the plate, twisted a piece of sweet pastry and ate it, and was fascinated by it for a while.
The old man saw that everyone was anxious and continued
"In other words, this matter of wind and snow, if it lasts forever, it is naturally a great joy in the world, but some heavens do not fulfill people's wishes, and this marriage of Baihua Niang is a disaster or a disaster after all, not a blessing!"
"It should be that year's Hundred Flowers Festival, people from all over the world come in an endless stream, almost all the streets are filled with all kinds of famous flowers, under the brilliant lights, the flowers, like being crossed with a layer of golden light, beautiful things! Among them, the most fascinating are Chang'an Avenue and Wanliu Bridge! It turned out that Baihua Niang put the latest new peony flower varieties planted in these two places. Invite celebrities from all over the world to have a product, just because you haven't figured out what name to choose, you can just ask for a good name..."
On that day, Baihua Niang sat in the attic, wearing a blue fringed skirt, combing her delicate bun, applying powder, golden hairpins and vermilions, and Ye Ye was shining, and she looked more delicate than flowers. As for the newly planted peony, it is the only one among the ten thousand flowers, the flowers are as white as jade, layered several times, and the petals are pointed inward, almost a little pink. The two colors complement each other, like a girl with a blushing face, wonderful and moving, which faintly exudes a faint fragrance, which makes people unpredictable and breathtaking! ”
All of a sudden, the flow of people on Chang'an Street and Wanliu Bridge was crowded, and some literati and rioters could not suppress the wonderful thoughts in their hearts, went to the flower platform, and wrote a poem to inscribe the peony. Among them, there is a talented man who has won the favor of our Baihua Niang! ”
