On May 7, 999, the imperial capital was in power.

This day is the second day of the empire "Flower Festival" that lasts for three days, and it is also the most lively day - the Flower Festival Canon.

The Imperial Concierge Department was responsible for hosting the flower ceremony in Jiangshan Square in the middle of Jiangshan City. There are also similar celebrations in the provinces in various places. However, I think this invasion of the Western Invaders, even if it is held in various places, it can only be simple.

Even though the Flower Festival of the Imperial Capital is criticized by the people and temples, the Imperial Capital Concierge Department still insists on holding it. After all, since the founding of Taizu, it has not been suspended for nearly a thousand years, no matter how difficult it is, it has never been suspended.

On this day, the four people walked onto the streets, gave each other garlands and sprinkled juice and perfume squeezed from the flowers. The young woman who received the most garlands on that day will be called the goddess of Flowers. The official will also openly hold a selection of the goddess of Flowers.

Lei Dongfeng's predecessor was busy with his studies and stayed in the imperial capital for four or five years. He had never participated in this event. Although Jiang Zhuying participated several times, he was still young at that time. When he was older, he entered the military academy. Later, he joined the army directly and did not experience the enthusiasm of this canon.

As for Li Ruoxi, she grew up far away in Helan Mountains, she never participated. Even with her simple temperament, she felt a little happy and surprised.

Therefore, early in the morning, Lei Dongfeng was woken up by Jiang Zhuying, Li Ruoxi and others, and rushed to attend the Flower Festival held in Jiangshan Square. Even the old Taoist Lin Qingping changed into a brand new Taoist robe under Xiao Ziyin's urging, and his arm was held by Xiao Ziyin with a happy face.

However, Lei Dongfeng could not focus entirely on this celebration. Instead, after asking about the information from the Roland organization, he put on his clothes and prepared to attend the Flower Festival celebration. After all, Chen Hanbing's performance was too unexpected. If Chen Hanbing and Mu Fancen had no other backup plan, Lei Dongfeng would not believe it. However, according to Roland's news, the plan had been arranged, and the time would come to attract the big fish to the bait.

"Chen Hanbing met Mu Fancen at night, and the specific content of the conversation is unknown. Someone has been sent to know Major Xia Yufeng of the picket law enforcement team, and the news has been released." Recalling the news that Roland just passed, Lei Dongfeng was very determined and became more confident in Li Ruoxi's plan.

Soon, everyone finished packing up and walked out of Linfeng Pavilion Inn, but unexpectedly, the old butler of the British Hou Zhao Huicheng family was waiting outside the door. The butler smiled as soon as he saw Jiang Zhuying, "Miss, today the adults are going to attend the Huachao Festival celebration. He has booked a seat in the restaurant beside Sishui near Jiangshan Square and asked me to take a few of them here."

"There is Uncle Lao Fu." Jiang Zhuying hurriedly said, and Lei Dongfeng took a step forward and helped the old man onto the carriage.

"It's nothing. Miss, you should give birth to a few children with Lord Lei. I'll be happier when I look at the old man." The old housekeeper looked at Lei Dongfeng with a smile, obviously very fond of this tall young man who was polite and repeatedly supported him.

"Oh, what are you talking about..." Jiang Zhuying's pretty face turned red, she glared at Lei Dongfeng with a smile on her face, and turned over and walked towards the street.

"Lei Legion, take good care of the lady. I am old and my body is slow. You can go first. I just want to go to the edge of Sishui, and everyone on the street knows it." The old discipline manager said with a smile.

"Uh, okay, Zhanyang, you can walk slowly with the old man, and you must take good care of him." Lei Dongfeng reminded Wang Jiantang.

"Don't worry, sir." Wang Jiantang was also wearing a brand new black robe, tied with a black scarf, and looked solemn. In addition, the tall and mighty military horses under him made him look heroic and extraordinary, attracting the attention of many big girls and wives, making Wang Jiantang very uncomfortable.

The others smiled, said hello to the old housekeeper, and got on the horse and followed Lei Dongfeng away.

Seeing the old housekeeper walking away, Old Dao Lin stared at Lei Dongfeng with a smirk and said with a smile: "Boy Lei, give birth to a few more children, I will take one as my disciple."

"Brother Dao, I seem to be paying the amount of food, clothing and expenses throughout the journey of the imperial capital. I have been paying for the money recently. I am afraid I will deduct it from someone." Lei Dongfengjun's face turned red and he gritted his teeth.

"Oh, forget it, Ziyin, this person is so boring. If he doesn't give birth, let's give birth to one, and we will be the number one Taoist in the empire in the future." Old Dao Lin curled his lips.

"Qingping, you are talking nonsense again." Xiao Ziyin immediately lowered her head in shame.

"But why do I like you, a monster who talks so much..." Xiao Ziyin murmured slightly. She immediately made Old Dao Lin, who was a little guilty, burst into tears and laughed.

"After all, young people are so energetic." Xu Huanzong stroked his white beard and greeted each other with the four people around him, nodding and smiling.

~~~~~~~~

The streets of the imperial capital are well planned, wide and straight, and have always been a model for the construction of cities in various countries of the empire and even the Dalu Road 6. However, during the Flower Festival these days, the imperial capital Jiangshan Avenue, which can accommodate eight carriages, is always crowded and crowded, and there are hawkers selling along the street that crowded on both sides of the road.

Some sell flowers, cloth, and rouge; some make tricks, play tricks, and sing street shows; some make sugar-knitted people, play glass, and play calligraphy and painting... As they are about to go down, the end is extremely lively.

Fortunately, Lei Dongfeng and others were riding horses, so they could still travel through the back streets and alleys. If some wealthy families were traveling by car, they would have been blocked in the streets and could not move forward for a long time. The woman in the middle of the car lifted the curtains and used a fragrant chew to fan the warm wind while complaining about the difficulty of walking.

But even if you can take a detour from the small road, from Linfengge Inn to the restaurant beside the Sishui River next to the imperial capital Jiangshan Square, it is only seven or eight miles away, but it takes nearly an hour to walk.

It was simply not important for everyone, and it was a rare relaxation. The inn that left at 7 o'clock in the morning was arrived at the right place at 9 o'clock.

As soon as I arrived by the Si Shui River, a friend had already come up to me. It was obvious that he had received instructions in advance and learned about the general appearance of Lei Dongfeng and others.

In fact, it is impossible for Lei Dongfeng to be a member of the group to attract attention. Not to mention the housekeeper and guard of Zhao Huicheng's family, the group included Wang Jiantang and three personal guards, a total of eleven people, four of whom were more beautiful than the other. Along the way, the four people gave countless garlands to Jiang Zhuying, Li Ruoxi and Luo Lan.

If it weren't for riding a horse, it could be said that the garlands were hung on the saddle. It would be difficult for a few people to walk.

Xiao Ziyin, the Taoist Taoist in Qingcheng City, is not happy to show up, and is also famous in the empire. She wears a hat like Xu Huanzong, and is surrounded by light gauze. Otherwise, with her temperament and appearance, she would probably receive many garlands, which would inevitably make the old Taoist Lin, who is protecting her short-lived, jealous.

Lei Dongfeng and his men went to the fifth floor under the guidance of their friends. In this era, although they had used their gold fingers to create cement and bricks as early as the founding of Taizu, the four people of the Empire prefer wooden and brick structures and rarely use cement buildings for daily living, so cement is generally only used by the Emperor's team to build fortifications or camps.

Especially in the imperial capital, where everything pursues magnificence and grandeur, wooden buildings and courtyards with white walls and black tiles can be seen everywhere, with elegant styles but not atmospheric. The popularity of this architectural style also reflects the material strength of the empire. Only when material wealth is extremely rich can one strive for magnificence, rather than complete pragmatism.

But it is precisely because of the pursuit of wood, and the wooden materials themselves and architectural characteristics that determine that the buildings of this era cannot be too high except for cement buildings.

A five-story building like a nearby Sishui River is already a flock of cranes next to Jiangshan Square, where every inch of land is worth a fortune. At least you can see it at all.

The seats reserved by Zhao Huicheng are the most popular fourth-floor private rooms on the street on Sishuiju. They are not only high enough, but also from this perspective, they will face the stage of the Huachao Festival celebration. The annual public selection of the Huachao goddess in the imperial capital will be held there.

"Xu Dao, Xiao Dao, Master Lin, oh--I should call you Lin Dao, haha. Please here." As soon as I entered the door, welcoming Lei Dongfeng and others was the bright smile on Zhao Huicheng's handsome face.

"The British Marquis was joking." Lin Qingping felt a little embarrassed.

"Come on, Ying'er, you and Bugui are here, Xu Dao asks you to sit down." Zhao Huicheng greeted everyone one by one, and even the two personal guards did not leave, making people feel like they were bathed in the spring breeze. Everyone sighed.

Everyone sat down one after another, and the guy poured the best Biluochun for everyone, and then retreated. Wang Jiantang and other personal guards opened another seat outside the private room, and also acted as guard doors to prevent outsiders from entering or peeping.

"I don't go back, you did a good thing!" Zhao Huicheng smiled as soon as he sat down.

"Don't the dean thinks that the student is too hasty and abrupt?" Lei Dongfeng smiled. He naturally knew that Zhao Huicheng was referring to the things that were born in Baiyun Taoist Temple.

"Haha, if you don't belong to you, I'm not going to take the test? I heard about yesterday in the afternoon. I did a good job and did a good job! When you first came to the imperial capital, you have bad intentions towards you and even looked down on too many people. They may not dare to touch you for the sake of my face, but this is not conducive to your future development, and it is easier to teach people how to support you. But as soon as the incident happened yesterday, who dares to underestimate you Lei Dongfeng? Look at the supporters behind you, Xu Dao, Xiao Dao, Lin Dao, and these are all

It was on the surface. What made them even more afraid of was that invisible means of Chen Hanbing, the way in which Baiyunguan Dao was forced to give in to Chen Hanbing on the spot, how many people in this imperial capital could do it? That's why I said that the word "good" you did yesterday! Not only did you feel aggrieved, but you showed your true nature, and let those guys who don't know how to advance and retreat see your methods. In the future, you can do things even without my protection in the imperial capital." After Zhao Huicheng said that, he picked up a glass of wine in front of him and drank it all, and was obviously extremely happy.

This glass of wine made Lei Dongfeng feel a little touched, because at this moment he truly felt that Zhao Huicheng was happy for himself. Before this, Zhao Huicheng was kind to him. He always felt that it was because of Jiang Zhuying's face and even had the illusion of being used, so it was difficult for him to let go when facing Zhao Huicheng and he was always polite. But at this moment, Zhao Huicheng's undisguised likes and dislikes made Lei Dongfeng understand some of his heart, at least he really cared about himself.

Therefore, Lei Dongfeng also picked up the wine glass in front of him and looked at Zhao Huicheng from afar, but without saying a word. He drank it all in one go in a gentle gaze for a moment.
