Chapter 398 Shangyuan Festival (please subscribe!)

Just as the young peddler turned to leave, Princess Yilan stood up from behind Zhang Twelve and stopped him.

Zhang Twelve was also puzzled for a while, after finally getting rid of the salesman, what is going on with Princess Yilan?
Then he turned his head and looked at her curiously.

The young peddler seemed to see hope, looked at Princess Yilan with a smile on his face and said, "Miss, what is Xiaosheng?"

"How much silver do you want for this flower?"

"Ah—this flower...ten...five taels!"

The young peddler hesitated for a while before saying the price of "five taels".

He originally saw that the two people were dressed in gorgeous clothes, so they must be from a wealthy family, so he first thought about the price of ten taels, because in his opinion, for these young masters, ten taels of silver is a drop in the bucket, and it is not a problem.

But when he saw Zhang Twelve's unruly and shameless behavior, he lowered his estimated price a lot...

"Five or two?"

Zhang Twelve and Princess Yilan said it at the same time?

From Zhang Twelve's point of view, this bouquet of flowers did not even cost one tael of silver. Although it coincided with the Lantern Festival, it was understandable to raise the price a little bit, but if Nima rose to five taels of silver, it would be a bit of a scam. Why not be surprised?
"How about... three taels... two taels is also fine..."

The young peddler said hesitantly, thinking that these two people should dress better, but it seems that they don't have much money!
It was unavoidable to complain again: Why is it so easy to wear Nima if you don’t have money?If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have come to sell to you, poor man!

"Ben...I mean, it's too cheap! Just five taels!"

Princess Yilan has no concept of price. The tributes she heard in the palace are all calculated in tens of millions of taels. Of course, these five taels of silver are not much in her opinion, so she just sent out the price. That exclamation came...

Happiness came so suddenly that the young peddler was a little confused.

Please play your cards according to the routine, okay...

Princess Yilan took the flower and took a sip, feeling that it was very fragrant and in a good mood.

It's not that she likes this flower so much, it's mainly because what she just said made her feel unreasonably comfortable, so she wants to buy this flower.

After the young peddler gave the flowers to Princess Yilan, he waited for a long time, but he didn't realize that the two people wanted to give the money, and he was shocked immediately. This damn would not want to buy Bawang flowers, would he?
But he still didn't dare to be really angry, he stretched out his hand a little helplessly, and said with a smile: "Miss, look at this money..."

Princess Yilan turned her head to Zhang Twelve and said, "Give me the money!"

"........."

Zhang Twelve was stunned, this shit can do it?

"You have no money?"

"Do you think I have money?"

That's right, Princess Yilan has stayed in the palace all year round, so she can get whatever she wants, how can she have money?

The Emperor Tang also specially gave him a lot of funds to accompany the Holy Maiden of the Yue Kingdom out of the palace, but he didn't give it this time!Is this the rhythm to make yourself fall back?
Although he was extremely reluctant, Zhang Twelve still took out the silver and handed it to the young peddler, still comforting himself in his heart: So far, the Emperor Tang gave him less than a hundred taels of money to accompany the Holy Maiden of the Yue Kingdom. The money was also deducted from it...

The young peddler ran away after getting the money, because when he saw Zhang Twelve taking out the money, he was as reluctant as cutting his flesh, for fear that he would go back on his word and ask for the money back...

Judging by his painful appearance, it's very possible!

The peddler left, leaving behind Princess Yilan who was holding the flower with a happy face, and Zhang Twelve who was dissatisfied.

"Your Highness—"

As soon as Zhang Twelve said this, he saw Princess Yilan glaring at him in dissatisfaction. Zhang Twelve immediately understood that she was dissatisfied with her title!

"Yilan...you don't even have any silver, why do you still say his flowers are cheap? Did you know that five taels of silver can buy a yard of flowers!"

Zhang Twelve decided to educate Princess Yilan, let her know that money is not spent like this, and things are not bought like this!

Princess Yilan was obviously not convinced by Zhang Twelve, she tilted her head slightly to look at Zhang Twelve, and said, "But a garden of flowers can't make me happy!"

The implication is that she is very excited when she sees this flower, so she is happy to ask her to pay more money...

Zhang Twelve felt that education was useless to Princess Yilan, so he simply stopped talking about it, anyway, he would take her out once in a while—but in the future, he must first ask Emperor Tang for more funds when he takes her out...

…………

The two were walking on the road when Princess Yilan suddenly asked, "Twelve, do you know who sent those who wanted to kill me last time?"

Hearing this, Zhang Twelve felt a little sad.

A girl who has lived in the deep palace compound for many years and is ignorant of worldly affairs has to endure such an attack. If the person behind the scenes is still a member of the royal family—how chilling would she be if she knew?

Zhang Twelve didn't want to dust Princess Yilan's clean heart, and said with a smile, "Yilan, I don't know either! If it comes to it, I want to know more than you!"

"why?"

Princess Yilan looked curious.

"Because——they are here to kill me! Of course I really want to know who hates me so much, and I wish I could get rid of me soon!"

After hearing this, Princess Yilan didn't say anything, but looked into Zhang Twelve's eyes calmly, and she didn't know what kind of emotion was in those eyes. You even asked me, how did you subdue those people!"

"Oh? How did you answer?"

It seems that Emperor Tang is quite interested in the "Little Li Feidao" in his hand.

"Of course I said I didn't know, because I fell asleep!"

Princess Yilan blinked at Zhang Twelve while talking, the two were like old friends for many years, they understood the meaning in each other's eyes, and laughed, this feeling is so good!

"By the way, what does Yilan want to see today?"

Zhang Twelve's idea is to take her to "smell the fragrance". After all, the most famous event in Jingzhou during the Shangyuan Festival is the poetry meeting. Waiting for him there, he is going to join them!
But he still planned to ask Princess Yilan for her opinion first. If she was not satisfied, he would be remiss in his job as a tour guide...

"I heard there's a lantern festival over the moat—I want to go there!"

Princess Yilan said excitedly, it seems that she has already figured out what to do when she comes out this time...

Zhang Twelve is a little embarrassed, if he goes directly to the Lantern Festival - he doesn't mind too much, after all, this poem meeting is not interesting to him, it's just a group of literati showing off their literary talent there, if he really Write——no, if it is true plagiarism, it is estimated that they will be plagiarized!

I just went to the Lantern Festival and I couldn't see Lu Fujing and the others. I promised to accompany them, so where can I release their pigeons?

After thinking about it, she said: "Yilan, the lantern show can only start after nightfall. It's still early in the morning, why don't we go to the poetry meeting first? I heard that there will be a lantern riddle show, and we can also go and guess it." Guess!"

Princess Yilan thought about it too. If it was broad daylight, the lantern would not show any effect. How many people would be willing to salvage the lantern?
Speaking of this, I have to talk about the Lantern Festival, which is very popular in Jingzhou.

According to the legend, every year at the beginning of the spring of the Shangyuan Festival, the ladies in the boudoir will write their wishes or bold girls write their names on the paper, and then put them in the special lanterns, so that they can go smoothly. Flow down, flow with the waves.

And tonight, there will be too many talented singles gathered by the river, you can choose a lantern to turn on, and look at the note inside, if there is a destiny, the two of them will definitely have a situation...

Legend has it that on this night, the old moon will look at the men and women by the river in the sky, and bless the son and daughter who got married because of the lantern for a hundred years and get married together...

This legend has been passed down for thousands of years, and several famous couples have indeed been made together. Suddenly, the Lantern Festival and Lantern Festival have become unique scenery on the Lantern Festival in Jingzhou. At this time of year, the lanterns in the river and the riverside There is an endless stream of young ladies and gentlemen...

"Okay! Then listen to you! I only heard Yixiang and Brother Huang tell me how interesting the lantern riddles on the Lantern Festival will be, and how grand the poems will be! At that time, I also want to come Take a look, but the old father said that it is not safe to be crowded at night, and he never let me out...Since there is a chance this time, let's take a look..."

Princess Yilan said, with a look of anticipation on her face, and then she seemed to think of something, and said secretly: "Hey, Yixiang may come again, but I'm afraid that Brother Huang will not be able to attend the poetry meeting this year... With his character who loves to join in the fun, I'm afraid it will be very uncomfortable..."

Zhang Twelve knew that Princess Yilan was talking about the prince who was confined at home, and he didn't have the slightest sympathy for him, but rather gloated at his misfortune—this prince can't come out, and the son of a bitch, King Kang, probably won't come out either, right?

In this case, I don't have to worry about encountering any villains anymore...

As everyone knows, in the eyes of others, he is a big villain...

…………

At this time, outside the gate of the East Palace, Kang Wangshizi, who was described by Zhang Twelve as a dog-legged son, walked in with a servant with his head down...

In the past few days, Prince Kang's life is not going well.

The prince made a mistake and was banned from going out by his father Emperor Tang, while Prince Kang beat him up to vent his anger because his father made a mistake, and left without telling himself after the incident Jingzhou...

Prince Kang's son was hit both mentally and physically. Since that day, he has been depressed, not to mention the East Palace, he has never even come out of his own mansion...

It can be seen from this that the crown prince and Kang Wang's son are brothers in difficulty.

Today is the Shangyuan Festival. If it turns out, Prince Kang’s son must have come to the East Palace early this day. In addition to having a feast with the prince, he will also go to the poetry meeting to give advice...

But today, he was not in the mood.

He didn't want to come out at first, because the prince didn't come out, so he went to the poetry meeting alone. If he met King Xiang or Zhang Twelve, one would not dare to provoke the other, and the other would not be able to be provoked. It is better to lie down at home honestly. comfortable...

Lying down until noon, he felt that he had to get up and go to the East Palace. After so many days, what if the crown prince had any opinions?
After entering the East Palace, Prince Kang came out with the boy and left in a hurry...

Outside the gate of the East Palace, the imperial guards have been guarding it since the day the foot-restriction order was issued. They don't care about the others, but they will carefully check the people who go out to see if the prince will go out at will without obeying the imperial edict.

At the beginning, they checked very carefully. They would check all the people who left the East Palace, but after a long time, they found that the prince seemed to be more obedient and had no plans to leave the palace at all. At least it didn't increase the difficulty of their work. , Feeling relieved, I relaxed a lot during the inspection.

Therefore, Kang Wangshizi's excitement when he left and the boy who was different from the boy who came in in terms of height and shape have never been noticed...

Prince Kang returned to his residence with his servants, and quickly sent a few servants to follow his instructions...

…………

After walking on the street for a while, Zhang Twelve brought Princess Yilan to the door of "Wen Xianglai".

Before reaching the door, Du Lang's voice was heard: "Master, here it is!"

Since Du Lang joined the Zhang family, he has performed well and is active in doing things. Not to mention Zhang Twelve, even the Zhang family is very optimistic about him now.

In front of Du Lang were Lu Fujing, Chen Qiaoxi, the Holy Maiden of Yue Kingdom and Qin Yutong.

Qin Yutong has a good relationship with Lu Fujing now. Zhang Twelve never said to call Qin Yutong together before he left the house. Even if he wanted to, he would not say it immediately. After all, he still wants to live well...

In this way, it should be Lu Fujing who called Qin Yutong out. Seeing this scene, Zhang Twelve was also very relieved. A woman should have the awareness of Lu Fujing...

This time, all the women in Jingzhou City who are related to Zhang Twelve gathered together except for Mu Xiangrong. Mu Xiangrong also wanted to come. Shine brilliantly at the poetry meeting.

But who knows that people are not as good as heaven, just yesterday, Mu Xiangrong had a fever because of catching a cold, and although the fever subsided after taking the medicine, he was still sick, so he didn't come...

And Lu Yuner and Zhang Tangyu originally came with a few women, but they were recognized by everyone as soon as they entered the hall of "Wen Xianglai". The voice of "Mr. Xiao, Mr. Xiao" was very loud, and the man asked them to tell stories , while the woman has a nympho look on her face, and even more so, the bold one used the crowded crowd to make a profit on the two teenagers several times. What is a child?
The men wanted the two little gentlemen to tell the story they hadn't finished telling yesterday, but how could the two with high professional ethics agree?
Under the hard work of everyone, the two young gentlemen reluctantly agreed to answer a few questions, which made everyone very happy. The questions were varied and endless...

It can be seen that it seems time for the two already famous people to go out with bodyguards...
