the other side.

Zai Xingzhi was leaving the storytelling building and returned to the six doors.

"grown ups!"

When he came to a room, he respectfully saluted the person inside.

The latter glanced at him and said lightly.

"Is there any clue about the recent death of the Tongzhou Prefecture at the hands of the five viscera demons?"

Xing Zhi was saddened, and said: "The subordinate did not find out the identity of the perpetrator."

With his strength, if he met someone who practiced magic arts, he would die in an instant, so this was also the reason why he was depressed.

Even though he has all kinds of means, what can he do if he doesn't have the strength to match?
The latter nodded, as if he had expected this.

"Recently, there have been more and more people who died at the hands of magic arts, and you are also concerned about this."

Apart from this, it seemed that he didn't intend to entrust him with any important matters.

Xing Zhizheng clenched his fists, feeling unwilling, suddenly thought of something, said.

"My lord, this subordinate thinks that Lu Si, the treasurer of the storyteller's building, has an extraordinary background, so maybe we can investigate his identity."

He always felt that there seemed to be some kind of secret hidden in Lu Si.

"Story building?"

Hearing this, the latter nodded thoughtfully: "I also heard that this man named Lu Si has a good reputation in Tongzhou Prefecture recently. It's just that the origin is unpredictable, and maybe we can find some clues from him .Forget it, I will leave this matter to you to investigate.”

Hearing this, Xing Zhizheng's heart was shaken, he suppressed his joy, and said hastily.

"Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates will definitely investigate his identity."

Clenching his fists, he knew that this might be the only chance he could seize now.

.....................

Two days later, Hundred Flowers Festival.

That day when Lu Si came to the restaurant early in the morning, he found that every house outside was already covered with flowers in front of the door, and the whole Tongzhou Mansion was bustling with activity.

Looking at the crowds outside, Lu Si saw that there were not many customers in the restaurant, so she took Zhou Yu to the street for a stroll.

Walking along the street, you can see the yelling of various hawkers all around. There are many pedestrians on the street, and everyone is holding flowers. It looks very lively.

Lu Si took Zhou Yu with him and looked at the bustling scene, feeling amazed.

After a while, the two of them came to the lake.

The lake is rippling, shaded by willow trees, and the lake is full of floating flower boats of various sizes. The hulls of the boats are full of colorful flowers, which look colorful and interesting.

Around the lake, there are also floating petals, almost covering a large area of ​​the lake, before approaching, it is already full of fragrance, and the fragrance of flowers is overflowing.

At this moment, there were dense crowds around the lake, and the stone bridge was crowded with people. Those who didn't know it thought that the whole city had come.

When had Zhou Yu seen such a lively scene, he couldn't help but stare blankly for a moment.

Lu Si didn't expect that the Hundred Flowers Festival would be so lively, and he couldn't help but look surprised.

When the two came to the shore, they heard exclamations from all around.

Immediately afterwards, a huge flower boat appeared in the middle of the lake, and there were many beautiful women standing in it, and it turned out to be the flower boat of Wanhualou.

When the flower boat stopped in the middle, someone spoke loudly.

"My friends and relatives, today is the Hundred Flowers Festival. My Wanhua Building will hold another Hundred Flowers Contest, and you will be elected as the leader of this year's oiran. As for the rules, it is the same as in previous years. Now I will invite Baihua Fairy to help you Contribute a song."

As soon as the words fell, the Baihua Fairy came out on the stage, carrying a guqin.

Seeing this scene, everyone around cheered in amazement, they never expected to see this Fairy of Hundred Flowers this time.

One must know that on weekdays, many people would not be able to listen to this Baihua Fairy's song, but this time it will be performed by this Baihua Fairy, which really surprised and delighted everyone.

In an instant, the atmosphere around was already reaching a climax.

Soon, the Miaomiao qin sound of the Fairy of Hundred Flowers resounded around the lake, and its pitch was so low that everyone around was intoxicated and obsessed with it.

It took a long while for the crowd to come back to their senses until the sound of the piano disappeared. For a moment, they really wished that the Fairy Baihua would play another song.

After the Baihua Fairy finished the song, all the girls from Wanhualou also appeared on the stage one after another.

Even though they couldn't compare to the beauty of this Fairy of Hundred Flowers, they all started to support their favorite beauties immediately after seeing everyone's eyes brighten.

After watching for a while, Lu Si finally understood.

Dare to feel that this so-called competition of hundreds of flowers is actually decided by everyone casting flowers, and whoever gets the most flowers will win this year's oiran.

Of course, this flower is not a flower that everyone holds casually, but needs to be purchased with money.

A flower costs one hundred Wen, which is really not cheap.

Some people waved their hands and threw a lot of money directly, buying thousands of flowers in one go.

Such a situation is somewhat similar to some beauty contests in the previous life.

I'm afraid that after this day, Wanhualou will receive a lot of money, which can be said to be both fame and fortune.

This also had to make Lu Si sigh, this Wanhualou really knows how to do business.

After nearly half a day of fierce competition, this year's oiran was finally selected, and a girl named 'Xiang Ling' became the head of this year's oiran.

And the wealthy businessman who won the oiran for this will also have the opportunity to spend the spring night with this Xiangling girl.

Of course, in addition to this, the other women in Wanhualou also met with other highest bidders in the lake.

All of a sudden, there were endless flower boats on the lake, and there were faint sounds of laughter and joy.

night time.

Lu Si looked at the brightly lit flower boats in the lake, but it was quite a sight.

Seeing that there was a flower boat renting out nearby, he rented the flower boat for a few taels of silver, boarded the flower boat with Zhou Yu, and floated in the lake.

At this time, the night is dark, the moon is shining, and the lights in the lake are lit up, like stars in the night sky.

Zhou Yu had never seen such a beautiful scenery before, so he couldn't help but be infatuated for a while.

Lu Si also felt that going boating on the lake at night made her feel quite at ease.

After an unknown amount of time, the two suddenly heard a voice coming from the front.

"Xiao Cui, just stop here."

The voice is long and gentle, as gentle as jade, which makes people feel warm when they hear it.

"Okay lady."

Hearing the voice, a crunchy voice sounded.

I saw a flower boat parked in the lake in front of me, and two figures were faintly visible sitting on the bow.

Lu Si's flower boat was not far away from the other party, and when he heard the woman's voice, he couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart!
"is her!"

Lu Si was startled, looking at the flower boat not far ahead, it seemed that she didn't expect to meet her here.

"Zhou Yu, lean over."

Lu Si spoke softly, Zhou Yu nodded quickly, and moved the flower boat to that side.

At the same time, a leisurely zither sound also came from the flower boat, like mountains and flowing water, erratic, and its zither sound is ethereal and beautiful, just like the torrents in the mountains.

Hearing the sound of the piano, Lu Si couldn't help but praise.

"What a song 'Mountains and Flowing Water'."

As soon as the voice came out, the sound of the piano stopped.
