Chapter 374: Spring City

Although he was not the Fu family in his previous life, because other powerful people wanted to plunder the seafood resources of Qixing Village, Liu Sanjin's family was still ruined.

At that time, she didn't have this good luck, and she had to be rescued by the official order.

Therefore, with hatred in his heart, he drifted on the sea, gathered thousands of people, crisscrossed the sea for decades, and fought countless battles with officers and soldiers, large and small, causing great trouble to the later successors of the Dayan Dynasty.

But now, just because she wants to celebrate the beautiful girl's birthday, this little butterfly wing, but let the Shangguan Ling, who went south, inadvertently save her, and since then her fate has changed.

The Dayan Dynasty has one less headache female pirate, but one more legendary female general who does not let her eyebrows go!

After the revenge was avenged, Liu Sanjin became interested in Xue Shen, no, no, he was the sailor in charge of his subordinates.

Later, by chance, she enlisted in the army, and eventually became the first female general in the history of Dayan, and she was also a female general at sea who left outstanding military exploits.

Go down in history!

The sixth day of the seventh month.

Fengzhou, Quancheng.

Another legendary city of the Dayan Dynasty.

Early this morning, the most famous century-old store in the city, the top third floor of Xiangyun Building, was chartered.

In the private room upstairs, a middle-aged man is proudly introducing his hometown to distinguished guests.

“…… The city is named after the springs, and there were statistics in the previous dynasty that there were one hundred and seven large and small springs in the city. It was also since then that it was renamed Spring City, and it was the most auspicious to get together one hundred and eight springs. Since then, the wars of all dynasties have rarely affected the city.

Wherever you are in the city, the water that comes up is sweet. In particular, Ma Lao Spring under the horse slope is a good tea product, famous all over the world, and the past talents have left countless poems.

The tea that the shop greets guests every day is taken from Ma Lao Spring. If you don't believe in the girl, if you taste it, is it better than the outside? ”

The beautiful lady smiled, "No supplies, just smelling the fragrance of this tea, you will know that it is the best." ”

The guy gave a thumbs up, "The girl is a person who knows the goods at first glance!" And when you came, it was just in time for the annual lotus festival in Quancheng, and the princess of the Dragon Palace was selected. You're so beautiful, do you want to join in the fun? ”

"Princess Ryugu?"

The beauty girl smiled, since she was molded into a dragon girl statue, it seems that she has a special relationship with these water tribes.

The enthusiastic guy immediately opened the conversation.

There are so many springs in Quancheng, and the legend is related to a princess in the Dragon Palace.

When she passed through Quancheng, she fell in love with a handsome scholar in the mortal world, but the old dragon king did not agree. and put forward a particularly harsh condition, which required the scholar to do it before he was willing to marry his daughter to him.

Scholars are just mortals, so naturally they can't do it.

The princess of the Dragon Palace was very sad, so she cried and cried, shed countless tears, fell in the spring city, and turned into a spring.

It's just that at that time, all the spring water was extremely bitter, let alone making tea, and it was impossible to drink it.

Later, there was a kind-hearted and witty old doctor Ma in Quancheng, who came up with a way, and with the help of the lotus fairy, let the scholar meet the conditions proposed by the old dragon king, and finally let the lover finally become a family.

Princess Ryugu burst into tears and laughed.

And from the moment she laughed, all the bitter springs in Quancheng became incomparably sweet.

One of the largest and best springs is also known as Ma Lao Spring, in honor of the old man.

And this beautiful legend makes Quancheng hold a lotus festival every summer, when the lotus flowers are in full bloom.

Especially on the day of Qixi Festival, unlike other places to worship the moon, Quancheng will hold an event to elect the princess of the Dragon Palace during the day.

All the unmarried girls in the city will dress up, hold a lotus in their hands, go to Ma Lao Spring, and drink a cup of spring water for free.

It symbolizes the blessings of the lotus fairy and the old doctor Ma, so that she can marry happily and happily.

One of the most beautiful will be chosen as this year's Dragon Palace princess.

On behalf of the government, part of the money obtained from the sale of water in this year was given to women in the city who could not afford to buy a dowry due to their poor families, and helped them get married.

It's a great honor!

Meiniang bowed her head slightly, "Your government here, this matter is well done." ”

The guy said proudly, "This is also a great thing that our Founding Majesty Dayan has done for the people of Quancheng." I heard my ancestors say that in the previous dynasty, this Ma Laoquan was in the hands of big officials, and ordinary people couldn't drink it even if they had money. Later, the emperor ascended the throne and was sympathetic to the people, so he changed this rule. ”

The beautiful girl couldn't help but hide her mouth and chuckle.

This allusion is indeed true, recorded in the royal annals, and His Royal Highness the King of Han quietly showed it to her, but not just because he was sympathetic to the people.

At that time, the ancestor of the Min family, Yan Gaozu was far from developing, but he was just a hairy young man, passing through Quancheng, he heard the name of Ma Laoquan, and wanted to come to beg for saliva to drink.

Who knew that the spring water was not drunk, but was humiliated by the powerful people who occupied the spring water at that time.

Unexpectedly, Yan Gaozu was aroused.

The heart said that if you don't give me a drink, sooner or later, Lao Tzu will even grab the spring!

He kept this in mind, and when he sat on the dragon chair, he made a special order to return Ma Laoquan to the people of the world.

Because he was afraid that someone would take the excessive, Ma Laoquan was taken care of by the successive officials of Quancheng from then on.

Depending on the seasonal water level, several barrels of spring water are pumped out every day and are available on a first-come, first-served basis.

When I look back, the money from the sale of water will be used by the government to help the people and do good deeds.

The man looked at the sky and saluted gratefully, "It's a loss to the first emperor, the price of this Ma Laoquan has not changed since the establishment of this dynasty." As long as the people are willing to drink, they can afford to drink. It's just that because the rich and noble still buy more, when choosing the princess of the Dragon Palace every year, they inevitably have to favor them.

It has been almost more than 30 years, and there has never been a folk woman who has chosen the princess of the Dragon Palace.

The one in front of me was still a girl from a laundry family in the west of the city when I was a child, and she was chosen because she was really beautiful and extremely filial. Just-"

He suddenly stopped talking, just looked at the beautiful girl and smiled, "If the girl is interested, go and join in the fun." I'm just afraid that the girl's beauty will lead people to ask for marriage in public! ”

"Also, there is a public courtship? Then our girl won't go! The maid cicada was not happy, and immediately pouted and refused.

The guy laughed, "Don't worry, girl, that's all." If you don't want to, no one will force you. ”

It turned out that when Yan Gaozu ordered Ma Laoquan to be returned to the people of the world, he heard the courtiers talk about Ma Laoquan's allusions.

I thought it was interesting at the moment, so I said a few more words according to the holy decree.

Parents in the world should not have a family opinion, if the two are happy, why not perfect young men and women?

Look at him, before he made his fortune, no one looked down on him when he begged for relatives everywhere. When I became the emperor, my father and mother who regretted their intestines were green, but there were many people!

After hearing about this, he cautiously beautified the joke of the first emperor, and engraved it on the holy monument by the Ma Lao Spring with the holy decree.

Since then, there has been an unwritten rule in Quancheng.
