C34 Arriving at Anhe

Anhe Imperial City was even more likeable to Mu Qingyang than the Moon Abyss Imperial City! This was the Jiangnan in her heart, the Jiangnan in her heart, the Jiangnan in her imagination...

Every ancient street, small bridges, flowing water, and ancient buildings by the river gave off an intoxicating smell.

Of course, it was bustling under Tian Zi's feet. These days, it seemed to be even more lively than when he first landed here. The second floor of each street was connected to each other by a red string with all kinds of red lanterns hanging on it. There were paintings of mountains and rivers, there were paintings of ladies... All of them were red lanterns. Could it be that the princess was getting married? Or was it the prince getting a wife? This kind of custom was quite rare. Hanging lanterns to celebrate the royal family's happy occasion? Mu Haiyang's mind was thinking blindly again. Wouldn't it be fine to just ask someone?

Mu Haiyang found an auntie who was carrying a basket of vegetables and asked with a smile, "Miss..."

When the auntie heard her call the girl, she couldn't help but become happy. No one could reject young people. "What girl? Not a girl? I am the mother of three children." "Wow, I can't tell. Elder sister is so young... " No one refused to say good things. Yan Yi rolled his eyes when he heard it. She really knew how to brag. He continued, "Why are there so many lanterns hanging on it?" He purposely dragged the tune.

"Miss, you're foreigners, right?" He sized her up and said, "We hold a flower lantern party for three days every year at the beginning of October."

"What is a Flower Lantern Festival? Are you buying lamps to put them on?"

Therefore, the auntie taught the four of them about the Anhe Flower Lantern Society. According to Mu Haiyang's understanding, the Flower Lantern Society here was a disguised blind date festival. There were also many men and women left behind in the ancient times. Most of them relied on this method to solve the marriage problem of some older men and women. This would be hosted by the government, so the success rate was relatively high. In five days, the general assembly would begin, and there would be many people coming to the lanterns. During those three days, no matter if it was officials, nobles, or commoners, everyone would be equal. The riddles, the pairs, the poems... or the direct confessions they liked would light up the other party's handlights to confirm their relationship. He could also make his own riddles so that the person he liked could guess and test if the other party was real or not. He could then decide whether or not he should live with the other party in the future. There was also a way to reject the other method, which was also a mystery. If the other party pursued too passionately and he was unwilling, he would create a riddle for the other party to guess. If he was unable to guess, then he would withdraw on his own. If he did not withdraw, then the authorities would intervene. This was the rule. Every night, three special puzzles would be announced. The puzzles that others could not figure out would be directly listed on the leaderboard. Until someone solved it, or else it would continue until the third day of the second day. In the end, no one solved it. The officials rewarded them with ten taels of silver. The puzzles that had not been solved last year would still be on the leaderboard next year. However, the next year, there would still be three new puzzles that would be difficult to solve.

During the Flower Lantern Meeting, women could wear veils. This was also to make it easier for ordinary but talented women. It could end the life of older women. That era was, after all, the world of male power. It was also an era where beautiful women could have three wives and four concubines.

Mu Haiyang was looking forward to it when she heard it. She began to think with infatuation, Aha, how can I be missing in this day and age? She definitely had to come. She might even meet her good wife. Maybe I can be a hero and save the damsel in distress. I'm really lucky to be able to catch up to this festival. Oh my god, I don't know how to guess the mystery of the lanterns? And I don't know how to answer pairs? Uh... Alright, what's more, he doesn't know how to read a poem? Just memorizing a few poems from the literary and ink customers was truly useless! What was the use of a last-minute Buddha's feet? No, I don't even know a few complex words. I got it... Mu Haiyang thought about it for a long time and finally came up with a good idea. She laughed heartily as if she saw herself being worshipped by everyone.

Yan Yi saw Mu Haiyang thinking about it and laughed, so he said in a strange tone, "Looks like Imperial Consort wants to earn ten taels of silver?"

The voice pulled Mu Haiyang back from her imagination, and she even had a smile on her face as she cleared her throat and said, "Wrong! It is thirty taels!"

"Don't brag. When the time comes, don't ask His Highness for help!" Yan Yi said with a tone that he would rather die than believe. How could he not know how much weight she weighed? She didn't even know how to write a few words, yet she still wanted to earn thirty taels. Just brag!

"Perhaps even your house's... Mistress might not be able to guess it?" As he proudly said it, Yan Yi also meant that he could not call His Highness anymore.

"Alright! If Madam doesn't earn 30 taels, then you have to reward me with 30 taels. Okay! If Madam doesn't earn 30 taels, then you have to reward me with 30 taels. If I earn fifty taels, how about I pay you fifty taels?"

"You dare to gamble with me in front of Niansheng, you are really... This child is worth teaching! It was a deal! "Mu Haiyang really liked him more and more and even teased him.

"Okay! It's a promise!" The two of them struck three times in front of Niansheng, asking him to be a witness. At that time, no one could blame him. Mu Haiyang suddenly remembered something." By the way, do you have fifty taels? When the time comes, even if I sell you, it will not be worth fifty taels."

"Of course I do!" Yan Yi patted his chest and promised.

Seeing his arrogant look, Mu Haiyang was determined to destroy his aura. "Niansheng, your salary is a little high. When we return to the city, I will help you reduce your salary..."

"Okay!"

Yan Yi could not say a word. He angrily pointed at Mu Haiyang who had escaped. "You..."

He made a face at him and walked towards the courtyard that Yan Er had rented. It would be best to rent a small courtyard for half a month. This way, it would be convenient and it would be good to gather information.

The courtyard was similar to a courtyard. It also had a small garden. It was a man-made bridge, and it had the charm of Jiangnan... The bonsai, tables, and paintings were all carefully decorated. The books and teacups were all arranged according to etiquette in the places it should be. The antique calligraphy and paintings were meticulously arranged, setting off the taste of the Jiangnan water village in the mansion. Everything was done in a proper manner. It was too formal. It made Mu Haiyang feel a little uncomfortable. She suddenly thought of the days in King Lyi's mansion. She thought of Jiazhi. She didn't know if he was living a good life or not. After all, he had saved her from Lyi Xuanzhi's evil clutches. He should find a good time to visit ___. Now that he had the time, what was there to be afraid of? I don't even put Lyi Xuanzhi in my eyes. Tch... If I can't defeat him now, I can just avoid his time in the prefecture. I can just go to the club that Jiazhi brought me to. Aiya, Mu Haiyang, you are really smart.

He praised himself in his mind again, making him feel exceptionally happy. She left the three of them behind and went back to her room first, thinking about how to meet Jiazhi. Shouldn't she bring some gifts with her? He was also thinking about what to buy for him...

"Your Highness, what should we do next?" Yan Er waited for Mu Haiyang to leave and asked.

"Yan Yi, you continue to investigate. Yan Er, you go investigate Mu Linsen. I think he must have followed us into Anhe. But I don't know if this person is an enemy or a friend. Don't let your guard down... Be careful. "

" Yes! " The two of them agreed and left the hall.

Niansheng looked in the direction of the exit and repeated the words "Mu Linsen" again.
