Chapter 386 Pisces Knot

The first month of the 30th year of Qianlong.

The fourth southern tour kicked off, with an unprecedentedly large number of entourages, starting from the Queen Mother, and all the lords of the harem accompanied them.In addition, they went together with Prince Hongzhou, Prince Rong Yongqi, Eunuch Fu Longan and other royal relatives. The mighty team set off from the capital.

The main purpose of this trip is to accompany the Queen Mother to enjoy the tour, so the journey is full of poetic and picturesque scenery and scenic spots.

Going south along the canal, the scenery is better than the other, especially Jinling City, the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, is really a scene at a step.

The emperor unloaded the heavy state affairs, accompanied the empress dowager and Yingyun for a good tour, and went boating on the Xuanwu Lake. The red lotus in the lake was not there at that time, and there were only green leaves everywhere. If we wait a few more months, the red lotus here will be as beautiful Open, you can see the scene of the lotus moving off the fishing boat.

After nightfall, the emperor quietly invited Yingyun to go shopping in the night market. The two changed into ordinary people's casual clothes and mixed into the bustling crowd of the market.

Yingyun was as happy as a fish in water, she dragged the emperor to have a closer look, and said: "I have been out with you so many times, but this time I have fun. Let's go, there are many people over there, let's go and have a look."

The emperor smiled warmly, let her pull, squeezed into the crowd, and joined in the fun.

In the center of the market, there was a dragon and lion dance, the performance was so vivid that the children onlookers ran around and almost bumped into Yingyun.

The emperor took advantage of the opportunity to protect her in his arms, and said with a doting smile, "I think you are about the same age as those urchins."

Yingyun pushed him away with a smirk, and saw an old woman sitting under the eaves, setting up a small stall, and braiding various animal patterns with red strings in her hands.

"What is this?" Yingyun squatted down and asked.

The old lady smiled and said, "Little craft, what kind of animals do you like, Mr. and Mrs. Lao She can make it up, do you want to buy one?"

Yingyun sat down on the small stool next to her, and asked, "Grandmother, I think this fish is quite beautiful, why don't I buy a rope from you, and you can teach me how to weave it, okay?"

"Okay." The old woman squinted and smiled, and took two red strings for her, willing to teach her this skill.

The emperor frowned, leaned closer to her, and said, "We came out to play, why are you still sitting down?"

"It will be ready soon, don't rush..." Yingyun was on the verge of getting excited, looking closely at the old woman's hand, and said to the emperor: "I saw a stinky tofu seller in front of me just now, help me there Pack one."

"You asked me to go? Buy you stinky tofu?" The emperor was really unpredictable about his queen's taste.

Yingyun urged: "Well, go quickly! Go!"

As soon as the emperor left, the old woman said with a smile on her lips, "The girl just now is your sweetheart, right? She looks good, and she is very suitable for you."

Yingyun smiled shyly.

The old lady held her hand, looked at the fish-shaped knot she was making, and said, "I'll teach you how to tie a double-fish knot, just watch it..."

"Pisces knot?"

The old lady smiled and said: "A knot of one heart, a joy of fish and water. I wish you a happy marriage for a hundred years, a good sign like a fish in water."

Yingyun smiled again, and learned to weave a Pisces knot.

After paying the money and reuniting with the emperor, Yingyun quietly hung the Pisces knot on his waistband, and said with a relaxed smile, "This...is for you."

The emperor clicked his tongue and said, "It's so ugly!"

The majestic king of a country, wearing a little daughter's stuff on his body, wouldn't be ridiculed by others, but if he disliked it, he still smiled when he sneaked.
