Chapter 686 Extra 72: Children

Lu Xingchen snorted: "How come I know her so well? I just met her a few times in Chang'an!"

Tantai Lingxing asked curiously: "She came here with her aunt. Didn't you see her along the way?"

Lu Xingchen said disdainfully: "She was riding in the car with Mrs. Wan. I was riding a horse with the caravan. How could I be with her? If I hadn't seen her today, I wouldn't have known she had followed her to Fuzhou!"

Shen Yujuan smiled and said, "Really? How did I hear that Mr. Lu once invited Miss Xu to visit Fuzhou together?"

Lu Xingchen said angrily: "Shen Xiaowu, don't ruin my reputation, I'm not the kind of person who invites people to go out at will!"

Tantai Lingxing's eyes looked back and forth between the two of them, and finally he touched his chin and said thoughtfully, "Could it be that you are both interested in her?"

Her words immediately frightened the two of them. Lu Xingchen sneered and said, "Tantai Lingxing, what's that look in your eyes? Which of your eyes can tell that I like her?"

Tantai Lingxing asked in confusion: "If you don't like her, why are you so excited?"

Lu Xingchen pointed at Shen Yujuan and said, "I'm excited because he ruined my reputation!"

Tantai Lingxing sneered: "Do you still have a reputation to ruin?"

Lu Xingchen was so angry that he jumped up and down: "Master, I was born well and look good. I have good facial features and no bad habits. Although I am a playboy, I never bully men and dominate women. Why do I have no reputation?"

"Tantai Lingxing, let me tell you, don't think that I have no business. I don't know how many little girls in Chang'an are thinking about me!"

"Yes, yes! The King of Heaven is here, and it's you, Mr. Lu, who is the most handsome!" Tantai Lingxing said.

"But having said that, Xu Yutong is beautiful and a famous talented woman in Chang'an City. She is also the dream lover of many talented people. Why don't you like her?"

Lu Xingchen snorted coldly: "Young master, Yushu Linfeng, has charmed many wealthy families. Why don't you like him?"

Shen Yujuan's eyes were slightly cold, and he turned back to Tantai Lingxing without leaving any trace: "The [-]th is a big day for Fuzhou to worship the God of Poseidon. Should we wait until the [-]th is over before leaving?"

Tantai Lingxing said indifferently: "Okay, I'm fine anyway, as long as you two don't rush back!"

Lu Xingchen tossed his hair and said, "Young Master has nothing to do, but Mr. Shen will probably have to go back early. I heard that there will be an assessment at the end of the year. You are no match for idlers like us!"

Shen Yujun smiled: "There are still several months before the end of the year, why is it too late!"

Xu Yutong returned to the room, and the maid Juaner beside her said unhappily: "Girl, I see that the princess is a bit indifferent to others. After all, the girl came out with Mrs. Wan, and she doesn't even have this little kindness." Give."

"Shut up!" Xu Yutong shouted sternly: "That is Her Royal Highness, the unique eldest princess of the Dafeng Dynasty. Even Your Majesty has to give in to her."

"Who am I that dares to argue with her and want her to treat me with courtesy?"

"You haven't been with me for more than a day or two. If you are still so confused about the importance, go back earlier and don't embarrass me!"

Juaner hurriedly knelt down and said: "My dear, forgive me, I'm a slave who can't speak!"

Xu Yutong took a deep breath: "Get up. From now on, you can't say these words casually. Please note that this is in someone else's mansion. If someone listens to it, I can't explain it even with ten mouths." of."

Her mother was not a happy person, and she did not know what she had done to offend the Emperor and the Queen Mother, so that her mother was never given a place in various palace banquets over the years.

Fortunately, her father was a progressive person, and he gradually reached the position in front of the emperor, allowing her to enter the palace and sit with the noble ladies of the aristocratic families.In order to be able to stand in front of others, she forced herself to study hard, gave up those freedoms, and worked hard to do her best. Only then would she win the favor of Aunt Haitang and be qualified to stand in front of others.

Fuzhou is close to the sea, and the annual Poseidon Sacrifice is a big event. Even if Zhao An, as the local prefect, has to put aside his important matters and come to host it.

The Poseidon Festival is a major event related to the safety of coastal people and whether fishermen can have good weather and go to sea safely in the coming year, which cannot be underestimated.

When Tantai Lingxing and others arrived at the beach, rows of fishing boats were already docked on the beach.

Dozens of strong men with red ribbons around their waists and red headscarves beat the gongs and drums vigorously and shouted chants.

As the trumpet sounded, an old man and his disciples carried out the three animal sacrifices. The pigs, cows and sheep all had big red flowers tied on their heads.

The respected old man came out, holding the incense and raising it high, "Lord Poseidon, please bless our children on the sea, so that they can travel safely, and all the ships can return with full warehouses!"

The fishermen behind him also shouted after the old man, and the sound resounded throughout the world, seeming to give them some peace and hope as they went to sea.

The goddess in colorful costumes sang ancient sacrificial words, making this grand scene somewhat solemn and solemn for a while.

After the sacrifice was completed, the young girl and the young man sang a fishing song about the harvest, and the scene became lively.

Tantai Lingxing asked Zhao Ning'er: "Why do I feel that there seems to be something wrong with the atmosphere between these young people and girls!"

Zhao Ning'er smiled and said, "You read that right, the folk customs here are open and the girls and boys are bold. We have blind date festivals like the Lantern Festival over there."

"In Fuzhou, the annual Poseidon Festival is their event day!"

After the activity is over, the boy and girl who look at each other will hold the boat and float on the sea, taking this opportunity to express their feelings.

On this day, the old man will be able to accept strange things and will not interfere too much.

Therefore, the legendary Lord Poseidon is also a Yuelao-like existence.

Zhao Ning'er and Tantai Lingxing were talking about the origin of Poseidon when suddenly a young man ran over, blushed and stuffed something into Tantai Lingxing's hand with lightning speed.

He moved so fast that no one around him could react.

Tantai Lingxing was holding something in surprise. Before she could see what it was, Lu Xingchen snatched it from the side: "Ha~, this kid is very fast. He actually picked the most beautiful one among us at a glance. The one!"

What Lu Xingchen held in his hand was actually a bracelet made of shells. The colorful small shells were worn together, which looked very beautiful and unique.

Tantai Lingxing stretched out his hand to take it, but Lu Xingchen raised his hand to dodge it: "You even like such an ugly thing, so many treasures in your warehouse have been blinded in vain!"

But Tantai Lingxing didn't care: "You care about me! Someone gave it to me with great care, how can I throw it away so casually!"

Zhao Ning'er frowned and said, "Don't make too much noise, you two. We are on a boat. Don't fall into the sea later!"

As soon as she finished speaking, I don't know if the two people were making too much noise or something, but there was a pop, and then someone screamed: "Someone fell into the water!"
