When the vendors saw that Jiang Changning didn't mind the rudimentary things and even bought them, the hawking noise suddenly became louder and they even boldly solicited, "Madam, buy some rouge. The rouge here is definitely the best on the street.

Many ladies and ladies use my rouge, I hope you will look more beautiful if you use it, madam."

"Madam, I have the best silk thread here. The things I embroider will last forever."

"Madam, this is a lucky lion from Ryukyu. Take a look, isn't it cute?"

Rouge, silk thread, and Jiang Changning were not interested. When the delicate and brightly colored Lucky Lion caught her eye, she walked over.

After walking around one street after another, Jiang Changning bought many trinkets. King Jin paid the bill, and the maids and guards who followed behind carried the items.

At the beginning of noon, the group entered the delicacies restaurant.

The restaurant's business is booming. If you come at this time, you can usually only sit in the lobby.

But with a meticulous follower like Chang Youzhong, how could he make the two masters suffer? He had already sent someone to book a private room.

We sat down in a private room on the second floor of the delicacies restaurant and the waiter brought us tea and snacks.

"Bring in six of the store's signature dishes, including meat and vegetables, and soup." King Jin ordered while carrying a pot and pouring tea.

Jiang Changning chuckled, "Your way of ordering food is pretty good."

"I learned from you, so remember to hand it over and practice it," King Jin joked.

"How many strips of salt pork do you want?" Jiang Changning asked with a smile.

Shuxiu is a bunch of dried meat, which is marinated in salt and is also called salted pork.

“The more, the merrier.”

“Fresh pork tastes better.”

"The front leg meat is the most tender, and when mixed with the meat filling, it tastes delicious. The tenderloin is pure lean meat, without fat, and is suitable for stir-frying. There are many ways to cook pork belly, it can be braised or grilled." King Jin talked eloquently

"Yong Zhou is very good at eating."

The conversation between the couple was full of fireworks.

While they were talking, the dishes were brought up, just as King Jin ordered, including meat and vegetables, as well as soup.

The delicacy restaurant sells Huaiyang cuisine, and three of the four meat dishes are river delicacies.

Squirrel mandarin fish, soft pocket long fish, white robe shrimps, and a meat dish of braised lion head.

The vegetarian dish is stir-fried fresh vegetables, and the soup is water shield and whitebait soup.

The two of them ate at the same table and talked about some legends and allusions about Huaiyang cuisine.

The king of Jin Dynasty was knowledgeable and involved in a wide range of subjects. He could be said to know astronomy from the top, geography from the bottom, and human beings from the middle.

What Jiang Changning has learned in modern times is enough to disdain everyone in this dynasty. After coming here, there are no TVs, computers, and mobile phones, and reading is very complicated.

She can pick up on all the topics of Prince Jin.

This made Prince Jin feel like he had met a confidant, and he felt more and more that he had good taste and that everything about his little princess was in line with his wishes.

When the meal was over, Chang Youzhong had already paid the bill. Jiang Changning said angrily: "I agreed to invite you."

"Ning Ning will invite me again next time." King Jin said with a smile.

Jiang Changning ignored this matter, "Where should we go this afternoon?"

"Listen to Ningning." King Jin smiled.

"I heard that there is a camellia garden next to the City God's Temple. Let's go and have a look."

The City God is the god who protects the city in Taoism, and most temples are built in the city.

The King of Jin had no objections and agreed that Jiang Changning would take the decision.

The City God's Temple is located in the north of the city, close to the city wall. It is relatively remote. The tea garden occupies a wide area, and the half-person-high white powder wall blocks out the beautiful scenery of the garden.

"Yeah, this is a private garden." Jiang Changning originally thought it was the garden of the City God's Temple, and everyone could come and go at will.

"It's okay, let Chang Youzhong tell the garden owner that we are here to buy flowers, and he will let us in to enjoy the flowers." King Jin said with a smile.

"If the flowers are good, it would be good to buy some back." Jiang Changning said with a smile.

When Chang Youzhong went to find the owner of the garden, the King of Jin took Jiang Changning into the City God's Temple.

"Ningning, do you remember where we first met?" King Jin asked.

"Wen Xin'an."

"Did I scare you when I walked out suddenly?"

Jiang Changning smiled and said: "This rogue guy came out of nowhere and really shocked me."

When you enter a temple to worship the gods, you will be asked to sign a lottery.

Inexplicably, Jiang Changning recalled an episode from an old Hong Kong movie, praying to God, praying to God sincerely, and smiling.

"Can you find a good lottery ticket?" King Jin asked.

"The seventh sign, I don't know whether it's good or bad." Jiang Changning shook the bamboo sign in his hand and said.

At the gate of the temple, there is a temple blessing to unify the lotus. Give him the lotus and give him money to unify the lotus.

The temple blessing found the paper and said with a smile: "Congratulations, Madam, this is the lottery. We are like getting married, a perfect match, a pleasant look and a harmonious face. The noble man will lead you to Qingyun Road. The little one will be admitted to the imperial examination and the big one will be admitted to the imperial examination. The two of you will be together for a hundred years and grow old together."

"

King Jin smiled happily and said, "According to your good advice, we will definitely do it."

At this time, loyal friends often come and say, "Sir, madam, you can go into the flower garden and enjoy the flowers."

The camellias in the flowerbed are in full bloom, some petals have fully unfolded, revealing bright yellow stamens; some are in bud, with a light pink color at the tip of the flower.

"I wonder if we can see the Eighteenth Bachelor here?" Jiang Changning knew about the famous camellia, but he had never seen the real thing.

The Eighteen Bachelors are treasures in Camellia. There is a certain gap between the real thing and the Eighteen Bachelors in the book.

The book says that the Eighteen Scholars are camellias that bloom in eighteen colors. In fact, the actual camellias have eighteen rounds of petals arranged in adjacent corners, so they can be called the Eighteen Scholars.

According to the color of the flowers, they can be divided into pink flowers, white flowers, and red flowers. Most of them are single-color flowers. The ones that mutate are bi-color flowers. It is basically impossible to mutate into eighteen colors.

.

Although the owner of the flower garden knows how to cultivate it, eighteen bachelors are too rare. There are no eighteen bachelors in the flower garden, but there are red pills.

The bright red flowers are as charming as peonies and delicate as roses.

"Ning Ning, stand under the flower tree." King Jin suddenly said.

Jiang Changning obeyed and stood under the flower tree, with the camellias in full bloom above his head, so delicate and beautiful.

"Turn around and laugh." King Jin commanded.

Jiang Changning turned around, with the corners of his lips raised and a smile as bright as a flower.

King Jin said with satisfaction: "People are more beautiful than flowers."

"Thank you for the compliment." Jiang Changning lowered his head and pretended to be shy.

Camellia has a long flowering period, from October to May of the following year, which can add warmth and joy to the cold winter.

"Yong Zhou, what do you think of this pot?" Jiang Changning fell in love with a pot of camellias with abundant flowers, beautiful flower shapes, and a fresh and rich floral fragrance.

King Jin smiled and said, "You chose well."

The number of flower buds is appropriate and they grow on the branches in an orderly manner.

The leaves are lush, shiny and plump, the branches are strong and strong, and there are no signs of pruning or falling off.

The soil is loose and breathable, so there is no need to replace the soil. It is grown from seedlings, not transplanted after they grow up.

Jiang Changning carefully selected a few pots of flowers and asked Chang Youzhong to arrange for someone to send them back to the palace first.

Coming out of the flower garden, King Jin took Jiang Changning to Lin'an Guild Hall.

When he went out, Jiang Changning said that he would treat him to Hangzhou's famous dishes. He thought that she must be homesick.

He is a prince and must stay in the capital. According to the law, he cannot go out at will and cannot make friends with local officials in private.

For the time being, he couldn't take her back to Hangzhou, so he could only eat Hangzhou food with her to comfort her homesickness.

"It's quite far from Lin'an Guild Hall here, so let's find another one," Jiang Changning said.

"Are you hungry?" King Jin asked.

Jiang Changning shook his head, "I'm not hungry."

"Then go to Lin'an Guild Hall. I want to eat Hangzhou's famous dishes." King Jin said with a smile.

Jiang Changning didn't say anything more and obeyed his wishes.
