7days ago Historical fiction 3
Speaking of the North Prefecture Governor Li Chongmei held a banquet on the Dragon Boat Festival, and invited Meng's family to visit the dragon boat in the garden, enjoyed the prune flowers and drank calamus wine. Mrs. Meng brought her husband and children's family to the banquet in great costumes, drinking and laughing, which was also extremely lively.

Li Chongmei said: It’s hot in the Dragon Boat Sun, and the sun is hot. Why not take me to Qingyi Garden to enjoy the cool and enjoy the flowers. The dragon boat race is also in the spring garden and waterside pavilions in Qingyi Garden. My mothers can also board the boat to watch it when they are used to being bored on weekdays.

After saying that, the servants ordered the servants to prepare. The ladies and wives went to loosen their coats, put on half-arm skirts, rode on sedan chairs, walked along the bluestone path in the backyard, walked around the walled rockery, and passed the fish pond and green lake. The bamboos and weeping willows were built on the embankment, and the flowers were flying in a row, which was also red and green, and the breeze blew the beautiful scenery.

Qingyi Garden is exactly here. Li Chongmei invited her to come down, walked across the Jiukong Red Bridge, and then walked a few stone steps. The pavilion of Qingyi Garden was the first to go to the pavilion for a break. The servants who served in the garden hurriedly placed a plate of summer heat and candied kumquat tea.

Meng Meiduan looked at the main hall of the pavilion, and there were bows and arrows placed in the middle of the wall. A few bamboo arrows were inserted into the bronze pot of the cranes underneath. There was also a couplet next to it: The arrows chased the wild cranes and clouds, and immortals were everywhere in the pavilion.Note 1

Going further inside, there are nanmu wood carved railings and Xuanji jade tables, exquisite decorations, bead curtains rolled up, there is a tiger-skin couch inside, a treasure knife is placed on the sandalwood rack, and green beads are embedded in the hilt of the knife, like a beast's eyes wide open, majestic.

Li Chongmei said: I often come here to fish in small residences and practice martial arts and arrows. So I gave him this Buddhist temple and pavilion as a residence. He was better, and he was not in a hurry to get married. At such an old age, he only stayed by my side and became enemies!

Meng Mu smiled: But the youngest young man born in your family’s smallest side house?I only hear you say he is naughty, but I didn’t expect that he is at this age to get married!

He is exactly the same age as your Meier. Seeing that Meier has become a human being, I was worried for him.

My sister Meng Yun heard the mystery and hurriedly said: I have heard about Mr. Li’s name for a long time, but Governor Li is the royal family and the governor of the Southern Capital. How could anyone come to the door to say hello?

Li Chongmei smiled and said: The media official came here several times and said he had a side room with General Hou's niece. I didn't agree. If the dog is not talented, he wouldn't have to make a side room. Besides, his straightforward and reckless temper is not a side room material.

Meng's mother smiled and said: It's just that she is wronged if she doesn't teach her children.

Meng Mei saw Lu Zilan nodding at her, so she pretended to be fine and moved to the pavilion. She saw the water pavilion beside the pavilion, and the green willows of the red bridge, and the white boats and green curtains came. There were a few long boats with colorful heads tied with colorful heads. The water light ran down and flowed, and after a moment, the green willows of the red bridge, slowly approached the pavilion. The leader on the cruise ship was a young man, with a white shirt, tucked up the silk sleeves, a jade hairpin tied his hair, and a long bamboo wormwood hand, singing loudly.

The boats are sailing on the water waves, I want to sing

How long should life be if the sunny day changes to the bright moon?

My heart is worried, the autumn is bleak

I have no worries and enjoy myself in time

When everyone heard the song, they went to the pavilion to watch. Li Chongmei smiled and said: That was the boy Li Lingheng. He arranged the dragon boat race today!The singing was so lively, so let's go down to take a boat with him.

When everyone went downstairs, they saw another flower boat mooring with bead curtains hanging on the top of the window, the hull carved with golden dragons, and the cabin was built in the cabin. There were long corridors on both sides, with golden mud and green sides rolled up, and red diamonds on both sides of the water floating flowers. There were water blue velvet blankets in the cabin, and coffee tables and small chairs with vines were placed. Li Chongmei first invited Mrs. Meng and Meng Yun to bring their families into the boat, and asked Li Lingheng to invite Meng Mei, Geng Xiuyuan, Lu Zilan and others to enter another boat.

Seeing that Li Lingheng was indeed agile and extraordinary, Meng Mei asked the person who was carrying the boat: Mr. Li, I just heard you sing that song that was very interesting, which was quite similar to the couplet on the pavilion, but it seemed to be from a work by one person.

Li Lingheng stroked softly and smiled: I have heard that the little girl of the Meng family is a crystal-clear heart. When I saw her today, she was really smart!To be honest, the couplet and the words are all my works, but I want to show my ugly face in front of my wife's family.

Geng Xiuyuan hurriedly said: No, Mr. Li's lyrics are quite like the style of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, and the songs also have a chic meaning. With the sound of the young master's loud singing, it makes people feel refreshed and happy.

Meng Mei smiled and said: It’s better for the officials. Mr. Li, come in and take a break. Now the sun is poisoning and is carefully heatstroke.

Lu Zilan also said: I saw that Mrs. Li had a servant to paddle the boat. Mr. Li didn’t have to work so hard, it would be better for us to drink and enjoy the dragon boat.

Li Lingheng handed over the servant to row the boat, sat down and smiled and said: Don’t worry too much, a villain practices martial arts all year round, but he is not so delicate.After saying that, he was wide and white, and only wore a short robe with a wide collar, exposed his dark chest, and his muscles were covered with sweat. He raised his head and drank the wine in a tow, and laughed a few times.

Meng Mei hurriedly hid her eyes, not knowing whether it was hot or her heart was hot, but her cheeks turned red.

Lu Zilan poured wine for Li Lingheng again and said with a smile: Your son is handsome, which makes my girl shy and happy!

Meng Mei stood up and went straight to the corridor outside the boat to blow the wind. Seeing the dragon boats lined up on the water surface, the flags and flags of different fleets were different in color, layer by layer on the boat, like brocade and clouds, the drums were shaking in the ears, the bow of the boat shouted horns, and the rowers swayed forward and moved forward neatly.

Everyone on the two cruise ships ran to the corridor to watch the game. Everyone was interesting to watch, so they bet and shouted.

Meng Mei asked Li Lingheng: Is this boat racing person from the mansion?

It is precisely because on weekdays, the maids and servants are playing with boats in the lake. This year, I made a few dragon boats just to give everyone a fun and the winner will be rewarded.Those who lose will be punished with wine.

This is interesting. Although I don’t go out to visit often, I know that the people in the Governor’s Office are all talented and clever. When I saw it today, I really have a reputation!

Have you ever bet?

I hope Mr. Li will give me some advice.Meng Mei blinked and lowered her voice, fearing that others would hear her cheating.

Li Lingheng whispered in close proximity: Own the blue flag.

Meng Mei felt his ears burned, and nodded quickly, and called the servant on the boat beside him to climb the blue flag.

If you win, you will count on you, if you lose, I will count on you.Li Lingheng smiled and said, after saying that, he held his arms and watched the battle, the gentleman said nothing.

Meng Mei had known that this person was strong and could sneak a close look. She saw that his knuckles were raised, his shoulders were straightened, his waist was pulled out, his face was red and golden, his eyebrows were wide, his water shadow was swept, and the dragon fish swam, and the light was sparkling. Meng Mei suddenly felt that his feet were unstable and almost fell down. Fortunately, Li Lingheng, Lu Zilan and Geng Xiuyuan supported each other.

Geng Xiu said a long way: Mei'er is better. After drinking so much wine, it's time to go back and rest quickly.

Seeing that the official was extremely anxious, Li Lingheng hurriedly said: Don’t worry, the lady is afraid that she is seasick, so she can help the lady into the cabin and lie flat.

Several people hurriedly helped Meng Mei into the cabin again. Lu Zilan brought herbal tea to Meng Mei. Geng Xiuyuan went to get the ginger slices from the pot for Meng Mei to fumigate the nose. Meng Mei smiled and said: I'm fine, but seeing that you are all panicked, I was scared.

Lu Zilan smiled and said: I'm afraid I'm just fascinated by anyone!

Meng Mei wanted to speak and choked. At this time, the cheers outside the boat were clamoring, and I don’t know which dragon boat got the reward.
