Chapter 93: Wen Xiaowan
The annual Dragon Boat Festival Ceremony in Guangling City kicked off on Taohua Island.
On this day, there were endless ferries on the lakeside, and the dock on the lakeside house was even more crowded.
The most of them are of course the literati and children in Guangling City, followed by the pretty beauties hidden in the boudoir.
This scene is more lively than the third lady from Zhongli Mansion who chose a son-in-law by Wen on March 3rd.
After all, the status of the third lady in Zhongli Mansion is too high, and many literati still understand the gap.
And those pretty people also knew that it was the home court of Miss Zhongli, and they would look too dim under the glory of Miss Third.
But today is different.
Guangling City holds several literary meetings every year. This Dragon Boat Festival literary meeting is second only to the Mid-Autumn Festival literary meeting. It is the best opportunity for all talented people to show their talents and an excellent opportunity for those who are beautiful to choose the one they like.
Especially after hearing that this year's cultural event was held on Peach Blossom Island, it aroused the high expectations of talented men and beautiful people.
The most famous businessman in the world lives on Taohua Island!
He is also one of the judges of this literary conference!
I think the top poems that were born in this literary conference can be written by the merchants and personally compiled a wonderful song for these poems.
Huo Shufan, Shen Qiaodie and others also arrived at this dock early in the morning, but the boatman said that the Peach Blossom Island was not open at this time.
So they waited nearly noon, and then the first batch of them boarded the ferry and arrived at Taohua Island.
The moment they set foot on Peach Blossom Island...
Huo Shufan suddenly stood still and his eyes turned forward.
The nearly a hundred teenagers, who were crowded with a boat, stopped and looked forward!
Just three feet away in front of them, on the bluestone corridor in front of Taoyuan, there was a door standing there!
A line of big words is written on the lintel:
"Welcome to attend the Dragon Boat Festival Ceremony named after peach blossom wine!"
There is also a letter hanging on the door frame:
"Guangling wine and peach blossom wine,
The jade bowl contains amber light!”
Just behind that door, five-colored flags were erected wherever you see the road.
That is a small triangle flag that is not too big, with only three words on it: peach blossom wine!
“…What does this mean?”
Huo Shufan took a deep breath and asked this question.
Wen Huan on his right pondered for a moment, and suddenly frowned: "Didn't Li Chenan's fool make a sound? He said that the name of the wine brewed in his winemaking workshop is Peach Blossom Brew!"
Huo Shufan frowned, "So... is he using this literary show to promote his wine?"
Shen Qiaodie, who was standing beside him, said: "It should be so! This person has a close relationship with the businessman!"
She pondered for a moment and then asked in confusion: "This idea is really wonderful! In this way, his peach blossom brew has not yet been brewed, but it can be known to everyone in Guangling City!"
"He would never have such a wonderful idea... Could it be that Mr. Hua gave him the idea? Could it be that Mr. Hua had tied him up with Shang and built a bridge?"
Huo Shufan shook his head: "At that time, no one knew that this article would be held on Taohua Island. Now Hua Lao has arrived in Kyoto for many days, and even if it is a letter exchange, it is too late."
"But there is really a master behind this kid. I have to ask my grandfather to send someone to check it out."
"Yes!" Chen Qiaodie nodded and suddenly laughed again, "But this is also a good thing!"
Huo Shufan gave her a surprise and glanced at her: "How can this be a good thing?"
"Shufan, think about it, he made this wine famous, but later he went on stage to write poems, and we will reveal his dirty heart..."
Chen Qiaodie's eyes narrowed, and the smile on her face did not disappear. "His reputation will definitely smell at that moment! Then his peach blossom wine... will of course smell!"
"As long as all the literati develop disgust towards him, and with criticism of his words, no matter how good his peach blossom wine is, there will not be too many people willing to buy it!"
"He thought he could fly high with this momentum, but he didn't know that once he fell down... he would fall into a state of doom!"
Huo Shufan understood, and he also smiled, "Qiaodie is indeed Linglong's mind. Then we will play a good show with him, Li Chen'an!"
...
...
The handsome men and pretty women who climbed Peach Blossom Island were obviously shocked by this gate.
When they heard that the peach blossom wine was the wine that Li Chenan was about to push into the world, some people were amazed, some people mocked, and some people pursed their lips and smiled.
Wen Xiaowan, the courtesan of Ningxianglou who was invited to Taohua Island, just smiled.
She had never drunk Huapingchun in the tavern in Erjinggou Alley, but the guests who came to her were extremely appreciative, so she heard the name Li Chenan.
I also know some of Li Chenan’s past stories.
But this person and this person's story have nothing to do with her, so she was just curious about it.
Unexpectedly, when I arrived at this Peach Blossom Island today, I actually saw him do this again.
This person is quite interesting.
I heard that the song "Butterfly Love Flower" that appeared on March 3rd was his hand. This fool... was a bit different from others.
I heard that he is also one of the invitations to the Japanese Association, and what kind of poems can he make?
Wen Xiaowan took several of her maids, and followed several musicians holding musical instruments behind her. She walked into the door and stepped onto the bluestone corridor, with the flags dancing in the wind, and the three words "peach blossoms" on the flags. She walked along the way, and it was like this all the way.
She turned a corner in front of a lotus pond and walked in the other direction of Peach Blossom Island.
This is not the road to the square, so I gradually walked towards a quiet place.
She came to a five-story flat tower, leaving her entourage outside the tower, and she climbed the tower alone and came to the fifth floor.
The layout upstairs is still very elegant.
There is a faint sandalwood lingering in the nose.
There was a sandalwood tea table under a window, and an old man in gray and white coat sat next to the tea table.
He is a great merchant.
He was not drinking tea.
There was a mouthful of Xiao Qing in front of him, and a small copper hammer was holding in his hand. He was closing his eyes and knocking Xiao Qing gently and rhythmically.
Wen Xiaowan lowered her pace and stood in front of Shangjia.
The Shang family still did not open their eyes, and the copper hammer did not fall down. His eyebrows suddenly frowned, and he sighed softly after a while.
"sit!"
"Thank you!"
"Is there a clue about the incident between the Yulong Association?"
"Return to the Lord, that's a bit strange."
"What's the strange thing?"
"That night, I met a young man on the second floor of Zhuoyu Xiaozhu. But he was covered in his face and didn't know what he looked like... But he said he was going to kill Song Yuanping, so I didn't do anything to him."
"Then when Song Yuanping came back, I led Lu Lianying away, and then a master wearing a hat came. He took action to kill Lu Lianying with a sword. When I returned to the second floor... Song Yuanping was already dead, and the young man was missing. The list... I died ten thousand times, and the list was gone!"
Shang Di opened his eyes, "So that list is in the hands of that young man?"
"It should be!"
"If you see him, can you deny him?"
"...Yes! His eyes left a deep impression on the slave."
"Okay, you'll have a good time today, are you among these teenagers?"
"In addition, the position of the embroidered clothing envoy in the Lijingsi of Guangling City has been vacant for a long time. The fourth princess Ning Chuchu came to Guangling City once the time ago, but now there is an embroidered clothing envoy?"
"Return to the Lord, I have not received the call from the embroidered garment order."
After an endless coma, Shi Yu suddenly got up from the bed.
