Princess Jingyang prepared a sumptuous banquet for Chu Yin and Huang Qingyu, "I heard that you were frightened in Anping County. This can be considered to calm your fright."

Huang Qingyu leaned over and asked, "Foster mother, I heard that my foster father is ill. Is he feeling better now?"

Princess Jingyang looked at her with a half-smile but said, "Nothing's wrong, it's just an old illness. I'll just rest for a while."

No matter how dull Huang Qingyu was, she knew that Juncker had left Suzhou quietly, and her face could not help but heat up, "That's good, that's good."

Chu Yin said: "Princess, the Marquis is ill, so it makes no sense not to invite a famous doctor. It happens that my master has nothing to do recently, why not ask his master to come and walk around more often?"

"That's fine," Princess Jingyang said with a smile, "This is right, otherwise the doctor we brought would not be very convincing."

After dinner, we talked about the Dragon Boat Festival.

Princess Jingyang said: "The Dragon Boat Festival in the north is always less interesting and not as lively as in the south. This festival has a festive atmosphere several days in advance."

Huang Qingyu smiled and joined in: "I also like the Dragon Boat Festival in Su City. Especially the dragon boat race, it's very beautiful.

"My foster mother has caught up this time, so don't miss it."

Princess Jingyang asked with a smile: "What's the fun way? Please explain it more clearly."

"The big families and wealthy households in the city take the lead in supporting the dragon boat team. The winners of the competition will get prizes. Even if they lose, it doesn't matter. The dragon boats they use, the colorful clothes they wear, and other equipment are all provided by others. .

“And everyone who participates will be paid for their hard work.

"Dragon boat competition is extremely fierce, and many racers fall into the water and get injured every year."

In fact, there are dragon boat races in the capital, and the methods of holding them are similar. However, the most indispensable thing in the capital is the children of aristocratic families, so the dragon boat race is almost a competition between the children of aristocratic families, and not many civilians participate.

Moreover, the north lacks open competition venues like rivers and lakes, so there are not many places where dragon boat races can be held.

Princess Jingyang became interested: "Are you going?"

Huang Qingyu looked at Chu Yin, who said, "If the eldest princess goes, we will naturally accompany her."

Princess Jingyang thought for a while and said, "Then let's go for a walk and see the prosperity of Jiangnan."

Chu Yin then said: "I will decide on that place. This year's dragon boat race will be held at Jingtai..."

The mirror platform is a lake outside the west city of Suzhou City. The lake surface is always calm and waveless, just like a bronze mirror that has been polished for the first time.

Princess Jingyang nodded: "Okay, we can rest assured that you are doing the work."

The Dragon Boat Festival is here in a blink of an eye. Every house in Sioux City has planted calamus and mugwort, everyone wears a five-poison purse, children have colorful silk threads wrapped around their arms, and the smell of realgar wine is floating in the streets and alleys.

Xue Yingying had two children with her and it was inconvenient to go out, so she stayed to look after the house and watched the rice dumplings being made in the kitchen.

Chu Dunru never liked the excitement, so he stayed at home.

Chu Yin and Huang Qingyu accompanied Princess Jingyang to set off early and went straight to the mirror.

A group of people took a boat and went straight to the island in the middle of the lake.

Because I came early, there were no people around the lake except for the people setting up the venue and the vendors who came early.

The foggy surface of the lake looks like a fairyland.

The island in the center of the lake is dotted with pavilions, pavilions, winding bridges and waterside pavilions, lined with trees and blooming flowers everywhere.

The highest one is a three-story pavilion, with a commanding view of the scenery.

Chu Yin and Huang Qingyu accompanied Princess Jingyang all the way to the high pavilion. Princess Jingyang looked at the three words "Linzhao Pavilion" with flying phoenixes on the plaque, and asked: "Who inscribed this name?"
