Chapter 408: Enjoying the Flowers Again (2nd Watch)

Jingguo is vast, and the five-year examination must be something missing, and Fu Zhixing's trip to the north this time can be regarded as a kind of inspection; The prefect of Le Gogo City only wanted Fu Zhixing to see his political achievements, and he didn't want Fu Zhixing to see his mistakes, but a gentleman on the street ruined all this.

"Master Pei won't be secretly investigating this time, right?" Yan Hao leaned on Fu Zhixing and asked.

"That's not it." Fu Zhixing gently stroked her back. This time was different from the time he went south to Jiangcheng, he was just patrolling, not investigating. Of course, if you encounter a case, you still have to check it.

Next, Fu Zhixing was a little busy, and Yan Hagi was not idle, and participated in the flower viewing party held by the prefect's wife; When I came out of Beijing, I couldn't avoid the fate of cherry blossoms. Fortunately, she has a noble status and the highest grade, and no one will force her to write a poem, draw a picture, embroider flowers or something, and no one will say ugly things to squeeze her.

The prefect's wife smiled and said, "Thank you all for coming to the cherry blossom viewing party I held." "The prefect's youngest son has reached the age of marrying a wife, and the prefect's wife holds this banquet to pick a daughter-in-law.

The wives who came to the banquet said politely: "It is our honor that Mrs. Wen can invite us to participate in the flower viewing party." ”

"It's not early, I'll make a long story short. Next, I would like to announce that the flower viewing will begin soon, first of all, I would like to ask the judges of this flower viewing party, Mrs. An Guogong, to announce the competition rules of the flower viewing competition. The prefect smiled.

Yan Hagi got up and walked to the prefect's wife, and said with a smile: "Passing by the treasure land, it coincides with its meeting, and I feel very honored to be invited by Mrs. Wen to serve as the judge of this flower viewing party, and I will announce the rules of the flower viewing competition for you." "Eyes swept over the ladies," the rules are very simple, Miss can voluntarily participate, in a quarter of an hour, make a poem or paint a picture, the poem is not limited to rhyme, the painting is not limited to the topic, but it is a flower viewing party, but also please Miss to flowers, poems and paintings must pass the competition, select the top three, Mrs. Wen has prepared prizes for everyone. ”

After that, Yan Hagi bowed slightly to the prefect's wife, and retreated to his position and sat down. The prefect's wife answered: "Everyone knows the rules, the game will officially begin, and everyone can enjoy watching and playing." ”

When the words fell, the girls under the steps of the pavilion looked for companions, and went to the garden in groups to enjoy the flowers and flutter butterflies; The garden is planted with the moon season, red, pink, yellow, white, as well as mixed colors, or silver edges, etc., they are either budding to be released, or when they are smiling and blooming, the fragrance wafts with the wind, refreshing people's hearts and lungs. Bees and butterflies fly around the flowers, happily collecting nectar and spreading pollen. The flowering period of the moon season flower is very long, except for the cold winter, it blooms almost every month, so it has the name of "moon and moon red".

When the lady was busy writing poems and paintings, the prefect's wife took the opportunity to chat with Yan Hao, "Mrs. Shizi looks young, how many years has she been married?" How many children do you have? In fact, she knows all this, they are not familiar with each other, and the topics they can talk about are limited, not to mention that she is more than ten years older than Yan Hao, and her children are about the same age as Yan Hao.

"I have been married for ten years, and I have four children, three sons and one daughter." Yan Hagi smiled.

"What a blessing the Lady of the Prince." This is Mrs. Tongzhi, who gave birth to four daughters in a row and did not give birth to a son, so she could only raise a concubine.

"I am quite blessed, when I was in my mother's house, my mother's family spoiled me, and after I got married, my mother-in-law's family spoiled me." Yan Hagi didn't mind letting people know that she was happy.

The prefect's wife looked at her slightly, this Mrs. Shizi was so innocent, and asked with a smile: "I heard that Mrs. Shizi is going to visit relatives in Kulun City this time?" ”

"Well, go see my parents, and my second brother and sister-in-law, nephews and nieces." Yan Hagi smiled.

After chatting for a while, the poems of the ladies came up one after another, and Yan Hao, as the judge, naturally took the poems and looked at them, and said with a smile: "The idea of this poem is good, the theme is clear, and the whole poem revolves around a fragrant word......

The other comment is: "The words of this poem are really elegant, it should be carefully considered......"

"There are several allusions to this poem, and the lady who wrote the poem is well-read......"

"This word is well written, hairpin flower ......"

For each poem, Yan Hagi picked out the merits and praised them, of course, they are all polite words, in fact, the poems written by these ladies are really ordinary, but to be honest, they will offend people. The tall son was chosen among the short ones, and after Yan Hagi and several wives agreed, he chose three poems and set them as the top three.

After commenting on the poems and paintings, Yan Hagi felt that there were two of them that were not bad, one was a girl playing with butterflies, and the other was enjoying flowers by the water, "This painting is fresh and natural, the writing is delicate, the scene is emotional, and it is full of fun." In this painting, there are water, bridges, pavilions, flowers and figures, the layout is reasonable, the color is appropriate, and the movement and stillness reflect each other. The two paintings have different styles, which is better or worse, and it is difficult to compare the high and low. ”

"Mrs. Shizi's comments are very fair." The prefect's wife also had a hard time choosing between the two paintings.

After several people agreed, it was decided, "The same is the first place in painting." ”

At the end of the competition, the prefect's wife gave away the prepared prizes. Then everyone moved to the hall and had a feast. Then in the afternoon, I listened to the opera, and the singers sang in the local dialect; Although the prefect's wife is not a local, she has been here for some years, and she has even guessed and heard it a few times, and she can barely understand it.

Yan Hagi was stunned, this was simply a chicken and a duck, and when the prefect's wife saw this, she explained to her, "It's about the Xisar tribe, the black-faced man is the rebellious chief Anda, he killed the king of the tribe, and Prince Roland, under the protection of his loyal ministers, escaped and went into exile in the desert." He grew up...... fell in love with Princess Eli at first sight and reunited after a year of meeting. ”

"Oh oh" Yan Hagi looked at the actors on the stage and poured out his heartfelt feelings, although he couldn't understand what they were singing, but he could see the affection between them. It's good, she just watch it as a pantomime.

The prefect's wife continued the story, "A year later, Prince Roland came as promised, but Princess Eli was snatched away by Anda, and Prince Roland disguised himself in the palace to meet the princess. Anda Hex ...... During the fortune-telling period, Princess Eli recognized the prince, and the prince took back the jade pendant, his eyes regained his sight, and his lovers were reunited. ”

"It's a good story, a happy reunion." Yan Hagi smiled.

After the play was finished, Yan Hagi was about to say goodbye and leave, when the maidservant girl came in and said, "Mrs., the prince of Anguo has come to pick up Mrs. Shizi." ”

The prefect's wife smiled and said, "The relationship between the prince and his wife is really good." ”

Others also quipped: "The couple is in love, the couple is in love." ”

Yan Hagiqiao's face was slightly red, and in the envious eyes of everyone, she was sent out by the prefect's wife. In the front hall, the prefect accompanied Fu Zhixing to drink tea. While talking, the prefect's wife and Yan Hagi came in. Seeing off the young couple, the prefect's wife did not rush in and sat next to the prefect, "Master, I have tried it, this lady is simple and ignorant of the world. ”

The prefect stroked his beard and smiled, "Okay." ”
