Chapter 52 The Falling Flowers Are Intentional

Previous Chapter

The night came as scheduled, never lingering. Xiao Zhengyu walked on the street in the southeast corner of Bianliang, wandering aimlessly, stunned. Every trauma eventually evolves into a kind of maturity.

He didn't want to return to the mansion, let alone Princess Lin'an's mansion. He knew Zhao Xuan's temperament, and at this time, he must have assigned a maid to wait at the door of his house. If you can still hold on in the future, you may not be able to go back to the beginning.

To Mahang Street, out of the Suzaku Gate, until Longjin Bridge, from the state bridge to the south. I haven't been out of the palace for a long time, and I originally thought that the night was as quiet as a pool of water, quiet as ever, but I didn't want the night market to be so prosperous. Among them, Mahang Street is the most prosperous place of the capital restaurant.

In the third year of Qiande, Zhao Kuangyin, Taizu of the Song Dynasty, ordered Kaifeng Mansion: the night market in the capital to the three drums has not been banned. Since then, food and beverage night markets have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain and are becoming more and more prosperous. It is recorded in "Tokyo Menghualu": "The night market did not reopen until the third watch, and then reopened on the fifth watch. If you want to go to a place, you know endlessly. "Although the winter moon is windy, snowy and rainy, there is also a night market. It is a true portrayal of the Bianzhou Night Market in Tokyo.

Before the Northern Song Dynasty, there was a strict curfew system, especially in the imperial city, every dusk, the city gate was locked, and the residential areas were also closed.

I saw that the night market was full of people coming and going, the business was thriving, the tea shop, the wine shop, the noodle shop, the colored silk, the incense candle, the oil sauce and other shops were lined up, the flow of people was bustling, the lights were bright, it can be said that "the night market is full of thousands of lights, and the high-rise buildings are red-sleeved customers." Now it's not like a normal day, and I still know it from the song. ”

Looking at the brightly lit bustling downtown and the crowd full of joy, Xiao Zhengyu was in a good mood. His gaze also wandered with the dazzling array of goods, and he was unconsciously attracted by a delicate antique folding fan.

The folding fan is made of silk silk, the red sandalwood is the fan bone, and the fan surface is painted with the mountain Yifeng, Qin Se and Ming.

This is one of the twelve scenic spots in Pizhou. Pizhou is the birthplace of Zhou Tianzi's clan, in the southeast of the state, it is said that it is the place where the phoenix perches on the phoenix, Zhou Tianzi imitates the Yan Emperor to cut down the sycamore, does the piano and the song, and attracts the phoenix. Xiao Zhengyu stepped forward to pick up the folding fan, which was engraved with the words "Feng Ming Yu Qi, people know it; Feng Ming Yu Yu, people do not know it", evoking his memories of being stationed in Pizhou with his father in the past, and a kind of nostalgia came to his heart, melting into the colorful night. So, he decided to take out the broken silver and buy this fan, so he leaned over and bowed his head to the vendor and said, "Shopkeeper, I want this fan painted with 'Qin Se and Ming', and put it up for me!"

At this moment, a crisp and tactful voice sounded in his ears, spitting out like beads, and also said softly to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, I want this fan painted with 'Mandarin Ducks Playing in the Water' to help me install it!" The words were almost the same, but they were in unison.

After that, two voices sounded at the fan stall, and the two people immediately looked at each other, a little embarrassed. The shop that sells fans is very happy, the business comes to the door at the same time, both two folding fans are red sandalwood for the fan bones, a qin and Ming, a mandarin duck playing in the water, very matching, then full of joy put the two folding fans into the Nanmu box, respectively respectfully handed to the two guests, and couldn't help asking: "Qin Se and Ming Mandarin Duck perch, concentric knot forever, simply a pair made in heaven, two are acquaintances, peers?"

After hearing this, the woman who took the folding fan immediately lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes, blushed and red, and hurriedly responded: "The shopkeeper said that we were just strangers who met in Pingshui, and we never met." As he spoke, he stared at the folding fan of the mandarin ducks playing in the water in front of him, and then added: "This is a gift from my waist to my brother's marriage." ”

Xiao Zhengyu glanced sideways at the woman, and saw that she was dressed in plain clothes, her skin was better than snow, her beautiful eyes were looking forward to it, and she had a light and spiritual aura, beautiful as a peach in three springs, and a chrysanthemum in nine autumns, burying her head very low, as if she was unwilling to face herself.

Seeing the woman's shy and shy appearance, clear and pure, like a water lotus plant that is not shy, Xiao Zhengyu felt a trace of pity. Shyness is the most natural and innocent feeling of people, not pretentious, not pretentious, not deliberately carved, it is the natural outflow of emotions, and it is also the direct expression of women's subtlety and simplicity. The shyness of a woman is like a bright moon behind a thin cloud, which is fascinating and lovable.

"Yes, we didn't know each other, we just had a fate. As he spoke, Xiao Zhengyu smiled gently, put down a piece of silver, took the box with the folding fan, and left alone.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly greeted loudly: "This son, although the fan is good and worth a lot of money, it is really not worth such a valuable silver." ”

In this regard, Xiao Zhengyu did not look back, but the thin smile on the corner of his mouth was gentle, and he responded as he walked: "Didn't you say it? ”

The woman was a little surprised, and stood still, only then did she look up at his distant back, and in the afterglow, she clearly felt the man's handsome side face, the facial contours were perfectly impeccable, and the ebony-like black pupils were floating out of the dust, making people linger, and suddenly had a heartbeat feeling. She wanted to catch up, but unfortunately Xiao Zhengyu was walking like a fly, and he had already disappeared in the sea of people.

"Miss, that boy is so handsome, amazing, and likeable. The maid beside the woman couldn't help but boast.

"Zijuan, we are a girl's family, we must be delicate and reserved, we can't be so impetuous. The woman's eyebrows were solemn, and she pretended to be angry.

"Since that prince has the heart to give a gift to the young lady, why don't we do it, just accept it, and ask for good luck!" Zijuan saw that the woman took the folding fan, and was a little hesitant, so she stuck out her tongue naughtily and said.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper on the side was also relieved: "Looking at the lady's speech and demeanor, she is also a knowledgeable nobleman." It's better to meet by chance, the son and the young lady are talented and beautiful, and they are indeed destined people, so they don't guard against the gifts of their subordinates as a suspension. ”

The woman blushed, nodded her head and thanked the shopkeeper, then carefully hid the folding fan in her sleeve.

Under the reflection of the firelight, the complexion is as clear as jade, such as the crescent moon halo, such as flowers and trees piling up snow, the instrument is quiet and leisurely, tender and graceful, it is another kind of quiet beauty like jasmine blossoming, white, fragrant, approachable.

In the vast sea of people, you will meet different people every day. Most of the people who pass by are passers-by, but there will always be one or two people who are looked back, and in the rush of time, they are willing to stay with each other for a few seconds, and maybe they will start another unusual life for two people.
