Chapter 190: A Feast of Flowers (Part I)

I heard that Yue Jingxuan came to Baihualou, and the girls of the entire Zhaotong rushed over, in the past, because the cost of the upper floors of Baihualou was too high, except for the official ladies who wanted to show their identity, others would not care at all.

But today, all the ladies are almost crazy and pour into Baihualou, the fifth and fourth floors are exclusive to the female dependents of the official family, ordinary people have no way to go up, and the lower three floors have become the focus of everyone's scramble.

Many ladies spend a lot of money for a place, and even the seats on the first floor are bought at a high price from those who have already booked. Many ordinary people were stunned, and only then did they know that there were so many rich people in Yunnan.

The atmosphere downstairs was warm, but the sixth floor, the top floor, was very quiet.

Mu Yunlan leaned against the window, holding a scroll in her hand, and was quietly reading intently.

Yue Jingxuan couldn't help but walk over and gently pulled out the scroll: "Don't you like to read these things, why have you changed your temperament recently?" ”

The scroll was taken away, Mu Yunlan simply leaned directly on the seat to concentrate on enjoying the scenery, the windows on this floor were inlaid with transparent glass, and the outside could see the outside from the inside, but from the outside he couldn't see the inside:

"I also want to find something to do, I used to be unable to calm down, but now that I sink my mind into it, I think there are many things in the book that are very good."

Yue Jingxuan's fingers holding the scroll tightened, Yun Lan likes to practice martial arts, and she used to get up every morning to exercise her skills, but since the last time she donated blood for him and was injured several times, her body has not been well-healed, and she walks back and forth in the yard at most in the morning......

Mu Yunlan didn't mean anything else when she spoke, and after she finished speaking, she felt that her words were a little inappropriate: "Uncle Huang, don't think about it too much, I was also forced by my grandfather, the second brother has his own things to do, and his temperament is getting more and more biased, my grandfather is too lazy to care about him, but he can't help but be a good teacher, so he has to force me to accompany him to study, I read a lot of books, and the stories on it are quite interesting." ”

Among them, there is a general dressed as a man, who goes to the battlefield to fight and defend the country, which is very similar to her experience in her previous life, but the ending is much better, the emperor at that time was very wise, and did not blame her for the crime of deception, and finally gave her a marriage and a mansion, the ending was quite satisfying, and she felt happy when she saw it.

Yue Jingxuan walked to her side, grabbed her from behind, and let her lean into his arms: "If you like it, I have some scripts, which are very interesting, and I can find them out for you to see." ”

"Okay, who wrote it?"

"Me."

"Huh?" Mu Yunlan didn't understand, turned sideways and looked up at him, "Uncle Huang, what did you say?" ”

"I wrote it." Seeing Mu Yunlan's eyes widen, Yue Jingxuan couldn't help but bow his head and kiss her eyebrows, "When I was young, I didn't like to read, but I liked folk books very much. After being caught by my father a few times, no one dared to show me a notebook again, so I simply wrote it myself. ”

"What do you write?"

"Hmm...... Acting chivalrous and righteous, swordsmanship, eradicating evil, robbing the rich and helping the poor......"

Mu Yunlan couldn't help laughing, and looked at him with novelty: "I really didn't expect that Uncle Huang liked these things when he was a child." ”

"Yes, at that time, I didn't know that my father intended to pass on to me, the imperial brother was very good, and the side concubines around him were all high-ranking officials in the court, we all thought that my father was cultivating him as a prince, thinking about it, the imperial brother also thought so at the beginning, otherwise, after learning the true thoughts of my father, he would not be so ruthless."

"Speaking of which, the throne is not just a seat, but the responsibility to all the people in the world, not only the highest power in the world, but also the heaviest burden in the world, I have not seen the emperor many times, after a rough understanding, he has too strong self-esteem, only me, and his temperament is self-serving, and he cares too much about reputation, and he is indeed not a good candidate for the emperor."

Yue Jingxuan took her into his arms: "Yes, my princess is very accurate." ”

Mu Yunlan was no longer silent, no matter how much she said, it would not help the current situation, even if Yue Jingyun was no longer suitable to be an emperor, she had been on the throne for many years, the foundation could not be easily shaken, it would take time to weaken a little bit, and what she and the imperial uncle lacked was time.

I have to say that God is really making people.

The two snuggled together quietly, Yue Jingxuan looked at her with lowered eyes, his eyes were full of soft light, he was full of hatred before, and even had the idea that if he couldn't live, he would ruin the world, but now with Mu Yunlan, the hatred in his heart was softened and smoothed, and finally he could face all this calmly.

"Buckle button!" There was a knock on the door, and Mu Yunlan hurriedly pushed Yue Jingxuan up.

Yue Jingxuan helped her fix her hair before she sat on the chair on the other side and opened her mouth to let people in.

Tianshu entered the door: "Prince, princess, the Hundred Flowers Banquet is about to start, it's time to go out." ”

"Hmm."

The whole of Baihualou is in the shape of a pagoda, the center of the building is empty, there is a big platform, and the surrounding circle is a room for people to book.

Of course, there are no private rooms on the first and second floors, and they are simply full of tables. At this time, everyone downstairs crowded at the railing to look at the sixth floor, and saw that the door above was opened, and they were pushed aside layer by layer, revealing Yue Jingxuan and Mu Yunlan in the room, and suddenly let out bursts of cheers.

"See the prince, see the princess, the princess Chitose, the princess Chitose......"

Yue Jingxuan got up with Mu Yunlan and stood in front of the railing, with a long figure and a handsome face. On his side, Mu Yunlan smiled side by side with him, slender and feminine, one rigid and one soft, a perfect match.

"You don't have to be polite, today is a feast of flowers, this king just wants to enjoy the grand occasion of a hundred flowers gathering, if it is because of the arrival of this king and disturb your interest, it is not this king's."

"Yes, lord."

By the time the two of them sat back again, Tianshu had already ordered someone to hang a bead curtain upstairs to block the scrutiny of everyone downstairs in a timely manner, but it would not prevent them from watching the scene downstairs from the inside.

Zan Yuan had a lot of things to do, so he just came up to say hello to Yue Jingxuan, and didn't stay long. At this time, after everyone gave Yue Jingxuan a salute, he had time to breathe a sigh of relief.

Everyone looked expectantly at the top of the platform. Before the start of the Hundred Flowers Banquet, a hundred flower beauties will be selected to perform. The selection of the Hundred Flowers Beauty is not limited to identity, whether you are the daughter of a high-ranking official or an ordinary civilian, you can participate, the only requirement is to be beautiful!

The body should be slender and slender, light as a butterfly, and the appearance should be like a stagnant face, and the appearance should be more than a fairy, and more importantly, the character, the character must be correct, if the character is not good, it is impossible to be elected no matter how beautiful the appearance is.

In this way, the beauty of flowers has become the name of those official ladies in Yunnan. After all, no matter how beautiful you are, but you can't choose a beautiful flower, some people will definitely speculate whether there is a problem with your character.

And once elected, even if the appearance is slightly worse, but there is no problem in character, it can make up for a lot of things. After all, for many people nowadays, marrying a wife is a virtuous man, appearance is secondary, character is the first, of course, if it is both virtue and appearance, it will be perfect, but unfortunately, the world is difficult to achieve both.

Standing on the high platform is Zan Li, she is dressed in a cloud of makeup and satin woven colorful flowers and butterflies brocade, the waist is extremely tight, outlining the perfect body line, the long water sleeves mop the floor, the cuffs and the long skirt on the lower body are plain white, although it is good-looking, but at first glance it always feels a little asymmetrical.

"Little woman Zan Li, I have the honor to preside over this year's Hundred Flowers Feast, women are like flowers, should be like lotus, out of the mud and not stained, should be like plums, top the snow and the wind, today's Hundred Flowers Feast opens, the theme is lotus, please appreciate it."

Every year, there is a kind of flower that is selected to do the theme, and the performance also revolves around the theme, last year's theme was peony, when the flower beauty led the dance of the shaking girl, with a flower to open the country's dance to overwhelm the group, to now, many sons, young ladies with the fan surface, as well as among the peony flowers, the bewitching beauty pattern.

At that time, many people thought that this shaking girl would become the princess of Ning'an, but who knew that the result was unexpected, and the prince actually married the lord of Leping.

Everyone was thinking about it, when the music suddenly sounded, and a large lotus flower fell from the sky, the lotus petals were pink and white, made of sprinkled gold silk silk cloth, and the layers were put together, exuding a mysterious light, which caused people to exclaim.

A woman's singing voice sounded: "Light smoke on the water, light rain on the sand." Lotus grass weeping poplar crossing. Amorous migration suddenly became sorrowful, and it was vaguely the West Lake Road. Blood-stained red notes, tearful inscriptions. West Lake is not reminiscent of lovesickness. You should only start over in your dreams, and you don't know where to go in your dreams......"

The song is tactful like fairy music, the lotus flower of more than two people is more than two people slowly rotated, and the tightly wrapped petals slowly unfolded, just when everyone stared at the lotus tightly, sixteen figures holding white silk fell from the sky and fell around the lotus.

The women's dresses are similar in color to lotus petals, but they are white on the top and pink on the bottom, and the pink skirts are like lotus petals, rotating and layered, like lotus flowers in full bloom.

Their eyebrows are lit with lotus flowers, and the stamens are pasted with fine gold leaf, and the golden light is shining under the light of the candle flame, like a fairy descending, and they are more and more beautiful and amazing.

"What a beautiful ......"

"yes, I didn't expect such a dress to look so good."

Many businessmen have begun to think that this year's above styles will definitely be borrowed from this lotus outfit.

Just when everyone was fascinated by it, the lotus flowers that were originally slowly blooming suddenly bloomed with a bang, revealing the slender figure inside, which was Zan Li who was standing on the stage before.

She was in a dancing pose, and suddenly, without relying on anything, she spun from the lotus stamens, her dress rotated, and the original plain white skirt rotated to reflect a trace of pink, and as her rotation posture became faster and faster, the pink gradually took shape, and it actually formed the shape of a lotus flower on the skirt!
