Ye Shuying had breakfast, walked out of the Liuxian Inn, and saw a carriage parked on the avenue in front of the door, two healthy horses, and the curtain on the carriage was deep. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

When Ye Shuying and Lin Chenxin walked in front of the carriage, the cloth curtain on the carriage was lifted by a slender jade hand, revealing a delicate and gentle face, smiling at Ye Shuying, and said, "Brother Ye, Miss Lin, please come to the carriage quickly." ”

Ye Shuying was slightly stunned, and immediately saw a petite figure in an aqua blue dress on the carriage, it was Shen Yuhong, he couldn't help but feel a burst of joy in his heart, and said, "Miss Shen, why are you here?"

Shen Yuhong said: "I heard that the triennial peony flower party will be held in Nanjing City on March 18, so I want to go and feast my eyes, I wonder if Brother Ye and Miss Lin can enjoy their faces and go with me?"

Lin Chenxin was born in the south of the Yangtze River, and he has already seen the peony flower meeting in Nanjing a few times, which is not uncommon. She hesitated slightly, looked at Ye Shuying, and saw that his face was happy, and she happily agreed: "Great, Miss Shen invited, how can you not go?"

Lin Chenxin couldn't, so he could only board the car with Ye Shuying. The two got into the carriage, but they couldn't help but be stunned, only to see that in the spacious and luxurious carriage, there seemed to be a handsome young man, who was the "little dragon" Yang Ming.

Yang Ming smiled heartily: "Don't be surprised, the two of you are also invited by Hong'er to go to Nanjing City to enjoy the flowers." Please. As he spoke, he raised his hand and asked Ye and Lin to sit down.

Shen Yuhong had already put down the curtain, only to hear the coachman's soft click, the horsewhip "snapped" twice, and the carriage had slowly moved forward.

It turned out that when Mrs. Yang and Shen Yuhong were walking last night, Shen Yuhong had asked about what beautiful scenery and fun places there were nearby, and Mrs. Yang talked about the peony flower festival in Nanjing City on March 18, the scene was grand and spectacular, and Shen Yuhong was a little yearning. Later, Yang Ming came to her and told her that there were still some doubts about the Snow Sealing Sword and Tianluo Villa, and she should not act rashly before the truth was revealed, and she should not be in a hurry to take revenge. Shen Yuhong nodded in agreement, and took the opportunity to ask him to accompany him to Nanjing to see the grand scene of the Peony Festival. Yang Ming also wanted to take her out to relax, so he readily agreed.

As for inviting Ye Shuying to accompany him, it was also proposed by Shen Yuhong, and Yang Ming also readily agreed, and had other plans for this.

These two horses and a cart, along the way slowly walking, on the road encountered a good scene, then to get off the car to play, see the local food, to taste it, a total of three days, finally arrived in the evening of March 17 to Nanjing City.

It's just that along the way, Shen Yuhong has always been in high spirits, Yang Ming is happy, everything depends on her, and she is very spoiled. However, Ye Shuying and Lin Chen were preoccupied and not very comfortable. Especially every time he visited a scenic spot, Shen Yuhong had to ask Ye Shuying how his injuries were and whether there was any major problem, although Ye Shuying was grateful in his heart, his face was a little embarrassed, and he couldn't help but pay attention to Yang Ming's expression with his spare eyes.

Yang Ming always had a frank smile on his face, but Ye Shuying couldn't guess whether the relationship between the two cousins was just a simple brother-sister relationship, or a child's love that had acquiesced and trusted each other.

Lin Chenxin felt a little jealous every time he saw that Shen Yuhong cared about Ye Shuying, but because Yang Ming was not good at being present, he had to endure it, hoping that Ye Shuying would not have any love for Shen Yuhong. In addition to resting at night, she also took care of Ye Shuying every step of the way.

The four of them arrived in Nanjing City, and under the introduction of Lin Chenxin, they stayed at the Fulin Inn near the street where the peony flower party was to be held the next day.

This Nanjing city was originally the capital of Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang in the first year of Hongwu, and Yingtianfu was the capital of the Ming Dynasty. After Zhu Di, the king of Yan, launched the Jingyan Revolution to seize the throne, he changed and moved the capital to Shuntianfu in Beiping in the first year of Yongle, and officially moved the capital in the nineteenth year of Yongle, taking Beiping as the national capital and restoring the name of Nanjing as the remaining capital. Today, although this old imperial city is not as prosperous as it was in the past, its richness and prosperity are also beyond the reach of big cities near and far.

On the day of the Peony Festival, the genius is bright, and the streets where the flower festival is held are noisy. The owners of peony gardens of all sizes in the city are directing the gardeners to move the peony carts and horses that have been painstakingly cultivated to the location that has been set a long time ago, and place them well, so as to earn a good reputation for their peony gardens and make a good sign, so as to bargain for a good price for their peony flowers to sell to various places.

When I arrived, a cross street, two miles of long dragons in the east-west direction, three miles of flower river in the north-south direction, people to the street at a stop, the eyes were full of all kinds of peonies, even the morning glow and sunset could not change such a gorgeous color, even the weaver girl could not weave this colorful pattern. Fully open, half-hidden, with bones, that colorful, contending with beauty, which can be compared to the small garden of the Moon Villa?

Yang Ming, Shen Yuhong and other four people ate early, walked into the flower street, and looked at the endless flowers, a "flower like jade" on the left, a "national spring" on the right, and a splendid garden, Liuli Courtyard, the first incense manor, spring garden, Qionghua Garden, Wanchun Pavilion...... Even a few pairs of eyes can't see it.

Shen Yuhong saw that his heart was full of joy and his spirit was flying, dancing like a child, jumping over and running over. Yang Ming saw that she was so lively and cheerful, and he couldn't say how happy he was in his heart, admiring the peony while looking for good flower seeds, and wanting to add some spring color to the garden of the Moon Villa.

Lin Chenxin glanced at Ye Shuying from time to time, but saw that he looked at the figure of Shen Yuhong walking in front with some distraction, and couldn't help but feel a sense of loss in his heart, but a slight smile bloomed on his face, pointed to a turquoise peony next to the road, and said: "Brother Ye, you see that 'spring water and blue waves' are the best among peonies, it is extremely difficult to survive, I tried to plant two plants the year before last, but unfortunately they didn't survive for a month." ”

Ye Shuying looked at the peony that Lin Chenxin said, just nodded slightly, and said: "This peony flower meeting in Nanjing City really lives up to its name, and it is indeed worth seeing." ”

The peony flowers of this Nanjing city are indeed not bad, the single-petaled yellow flower is not bad, splashing ink purple, the double-petaled cinnabar lei, Lantian jade, red dragon changing color, silver powder and gold scales; the red jade-faced peach blossom, Yu Jiyan makeup, champion red, rouge incense, green jade, green Ruyi, spring water and blue waves, pink Yaochi Chun, Yue'e Jiao, Feixia Yingcui, purple purple gold plate, purple jade shine, white pear blossom spring snow, white jade, Tianshan lotus, yellow Yellow Crane Ling, gold inlaid jade, one hundred taels of gold...... Mo said that Ye Shuying did not study flowers and plants, even if Yang Ming was well-informed, he couldn't name so many names.

At this time, a burst of music came, the piano and the piano played in unison, and the sound of the sheng flute sounded in unison, and the music was joyful and pleasant. Then a burst of singing came from the attics on both sides: "Peony Fang, Peony Fang, Golden Rui Blooming Red Jade Room." Thousands of pieces of red Yingxia are rotten, and hundreds of branches are lit up brilliantly. According to the beginning of the splendid section, when the wind does not tie the blue musk sac...... this song seems to be sung by more than a dozen women, it can be heard everywhere on the cross street, the song has the flavor of Jiangnan, and the soft and brisk melody is not lost, like the smoke and clouds drifting from the air to change, listening to it is very enjoyable.

Yang Ming heard that he was singing Bai Juyi's "Peony Fang", and on a whim, he continued to chant a few words: "The fairy Qi tree is white and colorless, and the queen mother's peach blossoms are small and not fragrant." The dew is light and purple, and the morning sun shines red...... "He recited the poem in a low tone, but the rhythm was much faster than the singer sang, and when he heard that it was far from the singing, he stopped listening to the singing.

Shen Yuhong praised: "They sing so well. ”

At this time, there are more and more pedestrians on the cross street, and the song sounds, and the flower party officially begins.

Shen Yuhong can't be like before, where is there a place for her to dance when there are more people?

Yang Ming didn't look at the peony flowers so carefully, there were more flowers, he not only looked at the flowers but also at the people, a pair of eyes as bright as stars circulated in the crowd, as if he was looking for someone. It's just that the person I wanted to find didn't find it, but I saw four men with swords hanging on their waists pushing away others and escorting three people over.

These three people, one of whom is thirty years old, has white skin, brocade clothes, and extraordinary temperament, and does not look like ordinary people at first glance. Look at the beauty on the left, only twenty years old, although she does not have the alluring appearance of Tong Yu in the photo studio, but she looks handsome, fresh and refined, looking at her intimacy with the man in brocade, either his beloved wife or his favorite concubine. What really caught Yang Ming's attention was the thirty-five or sixteen-year-old man on the right, this person was burly, with leopard eyes and a lion nose, his eyes were like torches, and he walked lightly and steadily, and he knew at a glance that he was a martial arts master.

Yang Ming didn't look at it, and he couldn't help but be surprised when he saw it, the man with leopard eyes and lion's nose was Zhang Xun, a popular man beside the emperor of the dynasty. This person was named the commander of Jinyi Wei by Emperor Taizong (Ming Chengzu Zhu Di) during the Yongle period, and the first year of Hongxi Emperor Renzong was the heir, and he was promoted to the commander of Tongzhi, two years ago with the emperor Xuanzong of the current dynasty to conquer the anti-king Zhu Gaoxu, because of the military exploits and was rewarded, but the age is not high but the red purple character. This man was so powerful that the officials of the DPRK and China did not dare to offend him, but he became restless and went to the rivers and lakes to stir up trouble, causing harm to many people in the rivers and lakes in the past year. Yang Ming saw him half a year ago, when he stood up for two friends in the rivers and lakes, and fought with Zhang Xuan for more than 40 rounds without a victory.

Yang Ming glanced at it twice, and hurriedly pulled Shen Yuhong away, afraid that she would collide with these people. Look at the four guards next to them, all of them have tigers on their backs, their eyes are blazing, and they are carefully pushing away the people who are blocking the road next to them, and they are very vigilant on the other hand.

When that Zhang Xuan saw Yang Ming, his eyes immediately turned red, and the whole person was like an angry lion tiger, eager to abolish Yang Ming on the spot. But he didn't make a move, his anger flashed, and he smiled and said to Yang Ming: "This afternoon, the two of us will meet at the Huayin Pavilion on the east side of Xiangyang Street, and whoever doesn't come will be a bear." ”

Yang Ming nodded slightly. When the man in brocade clothes heard this, he asked, "Zhang Xuan, who are you talking to?" Zhang Xuan replied respectfully: "Master, I met a friend and said hello." The man in the brocade dress nodded, and it happened that the beautiful woman saw the peony flower she liked, and said to him: "Master, this 'Qinglong Lying Ink Pool' is good." The man said, "Okay, when the flowers are gone, let's take them back." When Zhang heard this, he asked his subordinates to tell the owner that a certain peony had been bought, and that he would send it to a certain place after the flower party was over.

At this time, the singer on the pavilion sang "I am willing to temporarily seek the power of creation, reduce the charm of the peony, and return to the love of flowers, and the same as my monarch's worries" and finished singing. When the music stopped, the man in brocade clapped his hands and praised, "Good, you sing well!" The beautiful woman said angrily, "How good, is it better than what I sing?" The man in brocade said: "Where, of course, you sing well." ”

Shen Yuhong watched these eleven people pass by and asked Yang Ming, "Does Cousin Ming know them?"

Yang Ming said: "I only recognize one. Ignore them, let's take a good look at these peony flowers, I'm going to pick a few good ones and bring them back to the Moon Villa. ”
