Chapter 63: The Fragrance of Apricot Flowers

The northernmost part of Renzhou is Linyang County. There is Xinghua Ridge in Linyang County. From February to March, the apricot flowers all over the mountains bloom, as white as snow, pink as clouds, and fragrance overflowing, which is spectacular. The "scented rain of apricot flowers" attracts flower viewers within a radius of hundreds of miles.

There is a Taoist temple on Xinghua Ridge - Xinghua Temple. There is a platform in front of the mountain gate, which is the best place for tourists to see the scenery. It happened that February 15th is the Christmas of Taishang Laojun. There are crowds of people in the Xinghua Temple. There is a place where the mother of the earth is worshipped, also known as Houtu. The mother of the Taoist temple is the fourth emperor of Taoism. The throne is in charge of Yin and Yang birth, and dominates the beauty of the earth and mountains. Many women and daughters come to burn incense and children and seek marriage. Today, many people come to bring their families to burn incense and pray.

There are car sedan chairs on the wide stone road on Xinghua Ridge, and from time to time there are old ladies, sisters-in-law, sisters-in-law, and girls passing by incense baskets, which attracts the sluts to chase the incense. Two tall horses are walking slowly in the crowd, and the horses are like dragons and jade, attracting the attention of the big girl, daughters-in-law, aunts and aunts.

"An Yi, I have heard of the reputation of "Apricot Flowers and Fragrance Rain". Today I am destined to be together. It is indeed worthy of its reputation and it is really beautiful."

"Brother Shi Ben, if you hadn't mentioned it, I would have missed this beautiful scenery on earth. I read thousands of books and traveled thousands of miles. How could the beautiful scenery in the books be as real as I could with my own eyes."

When we arrived at the Xinghuaguan Mountain Gate, the platform was already crowded with people. The mountain gate was full of cars, sedans, carriages, and many small vendors were carrying fruits and snacks and other things to sell. Jiang Anyi and Fan Shiben had no place to stand, and the Taoist temple was not allowed to lead horses into it. Jiang Anyi secretly regretted that he had known that he would have placed the horses under the mountain legs.

Just as he was worried, a teenage child came over and shouted, "Young master, I want someone to see the horse. My name is Shi Tou, and I live in the village at the foot of the mountain. Everyone here knows me."

The boy's clothes were worn, with a treacherous head, but his whole body was clever. Jiang Anyi felt a bit like An Yong, but charcoal was his treasure, so how could he easily trade it to someone he didn't know.

Shi Tou obviously saw Jiang Anyi's hesitation, and shouted at the old lady who was carrying a basket to sell melon seeds not far away, saying, "Auntie Wang, Auntie Wang."

Aunt Wang was in her forties and came close to her and smiled, "Shitou, you introduced the business to the aunt again. What do you want to order, this young master?"

Shi Tou smiled and said, "Miss Wang, please give me a certificate first. Are you and I in the same village? Let's live at the foot of the mountain. After you get the certificate, you will sell fruit to the young master."

Aunt Wang smiled and said, "Just count you as clever. This young man, this kid is indeed Pingling Village at the foot of the mountain. Is this kid still the kid delivering his baby?"

Aunt Wang looked windy and frosty, her hands were thick and her skin was dark, so she should be a poor worker. Jiang Anyi handed the reins to Shi Tou, bought three bags of chestnuts, handed one of them to Shi Tou, and he and Fan Shiben followed the crowd and walked into Xinghua Temple.

After entering the countryside, Jiang Anyi worshipped in front of Laojun's statue, threw down a few copper coins in the merit box, and then wandered around. The sight was surrounded by people, which was far from the true meaning of Taoist sect's pure and inaction. Jiang Anyi felt bored and was about to leave when he heard a woman's voice shouting in surprise: "Mr. Jiang? Miss, it's Mr. Jiang."

The voice was tender and pleasant, and it was very strange to the ears. Jiang Anyi looked at him in surprise, but saw a cardamom girl waving her handkerchief and waving at herself with a smile. Three girls in the same outfits were surrounded by a woman with a green gauze covering her face, her eyes were like water, as if she was happy and angry, and it was Miss Xinfei.

Fan Shiben smiled and said, "An Yi, I didn't expect you to meet a confidante here. I really envy you and kill people."

Since knowing that Xinfei is from the Dragon Guard, Jiang Anyi has stayed away from him from the heart and couldn't hide at this moment. He could only smile and nodded and said, "It turns out to be Miss Xinfei, I'm so lucky."

The words were casual and peaceful, which was completely different from the people around Miss Xinfei who deliberately pleased her. Instead, it made the four little girls feel good. Siyu smiled and said, "Young Master Jiang, you are really destined to be a fate. Are we considered to meet old friends in a foreign land? By the way, you only know the name of the lady, but I don't know that my name is Siyu. Her name is Sifeng, Siqing, and Sichen."

Siyu was quick-talking and immediately told Jiang Anyi the names of the three sisters. Jiang Anyi made a rogue bow and smiled and said, "It's true that Miss Xinfei is going. Oh, this is Brother Fan, and the third son of Mr. Fan in Fan Yan."

All the famous girls in Fan Yan knew that Xinfei had met Mr. Fan, but she didn't expect that the stubborn old man actually gave birth to a handsome son. Everyone greeted him again,

Sichen laughed and said, "Why did that sign just now? 'Who worshiped me diligently in the Earth Mother Hall, and asked for a good sign for the best; if you are destined to be a thousand miles away, you will meet in a foreign land.' Speaking of which, Mr. Jiang and... are really destined to be destined." Halfway through the words, Sichen felt that it was inappropriate, and stuck out his tongue and vaguely passed the word "girl".

The speaker was unintentional, the listener was intentional, and Xin Fei felt a fever on his face. Fortunately, the veil was blocked and others could not see it. In fact, the red ears exposed outside the veil had already exposed her thoughts. Xin Fei was already in her youth. She practiced martial arts with her master since she was a child. She entered Longwei at the age of fourteen and became the Dragon Guard at the age of seventeen. This trip to Dezhou killed all the Yuantian Sect and fell into the French Open. King Ning was overjoyed and summoned her to Beijing for rewards. She passed Xinghualing to appreciate the flowers. At the instigation of Sichen, she drew a sign for marriage.

The years of the world make people grow old. Xinfei is already twenty years old. At this age, most of them are already married in Dazheng. Xinfei naturally has the intention of courting. As an orphan, she has no parents to worry about her. Although her master is good, she does not care about her marriage. Although there is no shortage of pursuers around her, from the princes and grandsons to the brothers of the same school, she is fascinated by her charm. Even Prince Ningping has a few thoughts of separation. However, Xinfei wants to find a soulmate who is of the same age and is of good looks, and of course, both civil and military are the best. Xinfei's own lover is full of fantasy and expectation.

After meeting Jiang Anyi several times, Xinfei was indeed a little moved, but Jiang Anyi was two years younger than him, and had a bright future in high school. I am afraid he would not like a dragon guard who was older than him. It can be seen that Jiang Anyi was wary of him. After thinking about it all day and night, Xinfei was sad.

Jiang Anyi left home and went around to study. Yinping also received a letter from Beijing, ordering her to return to Beijing before the New Year. She happened to be in Shuangyang County and heard people talk about "Danfeng Frost Dye" and the birthday of Queen Houtu. The four girls tweeted Yinping to enjoy the scenery and relax, and sought marriage by the way.

Xinfei glanced at Jiang Anyi, who was as beautiful as the wind, and felt mixed feelings. Could it be that as the signature said, her marriage with him was already decided on the stone of Three Life. The four girls were all clever. Seeing that the senior sister was moved, she intended to match the two of them. Si Qing smiled and said, "Young Master Jiang is going to Beijing for the exam, and we are going back to Beijing, so how about we go with you all the way?"

"This?" Jiang Anyi hesitated and said, "To be honest, Jiang and Brother Fan intend to travel around to increase their knowledge. They are not in a hurry to enter Beijing, for fear that it will delay your itinerary."

"No, no," Siqing hurriedly said, "We also want to look around, and we are worried that no one will escort us. What if our five delicate women meet a bad person? Mr. Jiang and Mr. Fan are just here to be a flower protector together."

Jiang Anyi rolled his eyes secretly. Just because of the five bad guys who are you, you dare to seek death, Mr. Fan didn't know the inside story and agreed: "It's okay, it's a good thing to have a companion along the way. As long as you don't mind us, let's go to Beijing together."

Jiang Anyi looked at Xinfei and saw that Xinfei was shy and timid. Her veil shook slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of her lips. She could not have the image of a female Rakshasa in the past.

The stone stumbled from the crowd and cried, "Young Master, it's not good, you have someone to take away your horse."

After grabbing Shi Tou's arm, Jiang Anyi asked anxiously: "What's going on? Who asked Ma to snatch it away? You can explain it clearly."

Jiang Anyi regarded charcoal as a brother who could not speak. On that day, Wei Mengqiang was forced to buy charcoal and he did not agree. At this moment, he heard the dark clouds being snatched, his eyes were emitted from cold light, his eyebrows were pointed upwards, and the corners of his lips were tightly pursed, like an ice blade was unsheathed, and the coldness was infiltrating.

When Shi Tou saw that the young master suddenly turned into a ferocious beast that ate people, he was so scared that he even forgot to cry. He looked at Jiang Anyi with his eyes open in horror.

Sifeng glared at Jiang Anyi and said angrily: "What a fierce thing you are, you scared my little brother."

Squatting down, Sifeng took out a handkerchief to wipe the tears for the stone, comforting him, "Don't be afraid, little brother, Mr. Jiang is a good man, please say something slowly."

Jiang Anyi woke up and calmed down his face and said, "Shitou, I'm sorry, I'm a little anxious. You tell me slowly, who stole the horse?" While saying that, he couldn't suppress his anger and his brows began to rise again. Jiang Anyi took a deep breath and tried his best to suppress the anxiety in his heart.

Shi Tou twitched, and with Sifeng's consolation, he explained the whole story clearly: Jiang Anyi and his two men came out of the sight, and they came out of the sight. When one of them saw the charcoal, they immediately stepped forward to ask for the price. They learned that Shi Tou was watching the horse for the sake of the man, the man snatched the charcoal and said that the owner of the horse went to Yiyong's mansion to ask for money. Without any explanation, he led the horse down the mountain.

The title of Da Zheng was awarded the sixth grade: King, Duke, Marquis, Bo, Zi, and Male. The king was only granted to the royal family, and there was a difference between princes and princes. Ning was the prince and Anyang was the prince. This Yiyong Bo's surname was Yang Huixiangliang, and was a second-class count with a fief of 600 households. He was appointed as the deputy archer of the Annan Protectorate, who was in charge of Kejiao City, Lingzhou, and was a favorite general of the emperor today.

After listening to Siqing's introduction, Jiang Anyi frowned. Compared to official ranks, he was more difficult to obtain. His dynasties have never been lighter than others. In addition to being from a royal family and a relative, even the youngest baron is a symbol of status and status. Although the third-class man is only equivalent to a sixth-rank official rank, even the prefect of Shangzhou should be respectful and regarded as a guest of honor when he sees him.
