"Yes, yes, that's him." The two guards hurriedly called out, "Sir Jay, do you know the young prince?"
"Oh, I know him, of course I know him. I often travel in and out of the palace, how could I not know the young prince? He and my family's Wang Cai have become sworn brothers. "Lin Wanrong chuckled," Do you know where the young prince and Palace Maid Xu went for sightseeing? "
"I'm not too sure, but I saw that their carriage was heading out of the north gate. They probably went for a spring outing."
Spring outing? Damn, I think it's more like spring outing. He came with the imperial edict to pick up girls, but Xu Zhangjin went on a date with the young prince. Although the little palace maid had nothing to do with him for the time being, he was definitely unhappy.
"Big brothers," Lin Wanrong nodded solemnly and said with a solemn expression, "Originally, according to the working rules of us golden secret agents, Chapter 9, Chapter 108, Chapter 10, Section 10, Article 5, since I asked you for information today, in order to ensure that the state's secrets are not leaked, you have to —" Lin Wanrong's face showed a fierce expression. He wiped his neck fiercely and sneered coldly, "I think you two have heard about the methods of us golden secret agents. Car cracking, sky lantern, human skin drum, which one do you two like?"
The two guards were so scared that they shrunk their heads, their faces were pale, and they collapsed like mud, "Sir, spare us, spare us, sir!"
Lin Wanrong held them up, his face was merciful, "However, it is fate that we met today, I will not do those things that spoil the fun. However, if someone leaked the news that I was here, hehe, I will not do such a miserable thing as a sky lantern, it is quite interesting to be a human skin drum — "
He laughed dryly, the two guards were covered in cold sweat, and they nodded like chickens pecking at rice, "Don't worry, sir, don't worry, even if you beat us to death, we will not leak any news."
Lin Wanrong managed to convince the two of them with a mixture of lies and intimidation. Then, she stood up and headed for the north gate. The imperial edict felt warm in his bosom, but the little girl he was trying to woo had already lost the thread. It could be said that he had a bad start.
Considering that the Grand Mistress was still a 'guest' at the old Emperor's place, if Xu Zhangjin didn't handle this matter well, the old Master would be even more speechless. He snorted and had a bowl of soy milk, two fried dough sticks, and a haircut at a tea stall outside the North Gate before he left the city.
The scenery outside the city, if one did not see it, would not have known, but upon seeing it, one would be shocked. At the end of the second month of early spring, a cool breeze caressed the willows, and wildflowers covered the ground. The jade-green waves rippled. Although the spring rain had just stopped, there were already orioles and swallows everywhere, red and green. There were indeed many people out for a stroll in the spring. On the roadside and on the mountain, there were bright pink flowers. Some could be named, some could not be named, some were red, some were yellow, and some were blue. After experiencing the nourishment of the spring rain, each of them was charming and fragrant, competing with each other in beauty. It was extremely beautiful.
The young ladies and gentlemen on the roadside picked the wildflowers in high spirits. Some of the bolder ones had already put aside the barriers between men and women, and were dueling with each other in poems and making harmless jokes. The cheers and laughter rang out non-stop, and the atmosphere was very lively.
Sure enough, the 'spring' had arrived. Those who were in heat were in heat, and those who were coquettish were coquettish. It was a pity that the wildflowers on the roadside were not plucked. Lin Wanrong sighed and slowly recited, "Spring sleeps without knowing the dawn, and in dreams clothes are few! The sound of wind and rain comes at night, and children are having fun! Good poem, good poem! "
"Despicable!" As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a man's voice from beside him. It was very clear and melodious, with a hint of mockery and schadenfreude.
Lin Wanrong looked up and saw a group of men and women standing not far away. All of them were dressed in bright clothes and looked decent. It seemed that everyone had heard the short verse he recited just now. The women's faces were bright red, and the men covered their mouths and snickered.
One of them was an acquaintance. He had not seen him for some time. Lin Wanrong called out happily, "Aiyo, isn't this the Young Prince? I haven't seen you for a few days, and you've grown even more handsome. You're almost catching up to me! Why did you bring so many people out to buy sex? "
"Tacky. Can sex be bought with money?" Before Zhao Kangning could speak, the person beside him interrupted. Lin Wanrong glanced at him and saw that this person was in his forties. He had a white face without a beard, and his expression was very arrogant.
"I'm willing to spend a million to buy a spring flower." Lin Wanrong smiled and said, "I'm such a tacky person. Brother, do you have an opinion?"
"Mister Gu, don't be angry." Zhao Kangning smiled and said, "This is the legendary Official Lin San."
"You're Lin San?" Mister Gu was shocked. "You're the one who bombarded the Sacred Workshop?!"
The incident at the Sacred Workshop was too big. In a short day, it had spread to every corner of Jing City and was spreading to many provinces in China. Lin Wanrong did not find it strange and smiled slightly. "That's me."
"Sir, why are you here?" A woman's gentle voice sounded with a hint of surprise. Lin Wanrong glanced at the person standing beside Zhao Kangning. It was the little palace maid, Xu Zhangjin. Xu Zhangjin was wearing a light purple robe today. Paired with her jade-like skin, she had a special charm.
"Eh, Sister Zhangjin, you're here too." Lin Wanrong waved at her, his expression unchanged. "I'm also here to buy sex."
Palace Maid Xu bowed to him and said respectfully, "I'm willing to spend a million taels to buy a stalk of spring flower. Sir's method of buying sex is quite unique. "
Lin Wanrong scrutinized her expression. It was as calm as water and unperturbed, as if there was nothing suspicious. Lin Wanrong was stunned. Could it be that she had guessed wrong?
Little Prince glanced at him and chuckled. "It's not just buying sex. Lin San's poem about spring sleep is also very interesting. It's unforgettable. " As soon as he said this, the men standing behind him laughed loudly. The women also looked embarrassed. Xu Zhangjin's eyes were red and she quickly lowered her head.
"Eh, I didn't expect Little Prince to have a photographic memory. You can even remember the poem I recited just now. What's so interesting about my poem?"
Zhao Kangning chuckled and recited, "Spring sleep without knowing the dawn, clothes are few in the dream! The wind and rain come at night, children are having fun! I didn't expect our world-famous Scholar Lin, Deputy Assistant Minister Lin, to have such an interest. It looks like Little Prince needs to advertise you properly! "
Lin Wanrong was shocked and pointed at Zhao Kangning's nose. "You, what are you reciting? Little Prince, you are a noble of the imperial family, a descendant of the Taizu. How can you recite such obscene words in public? Where is the dignity of the Holy Ancestor, where is the face of the imperial family? "
"What, you don't admit it?" Zhao Kangning smiled coldly. "This obscene poem was written by you just now. Little Prince heard it with my own ears. How can I be wrong? "
Lin Wanrong chuckled and said, "Xiao Wangye, you misheard. What I recited just now was: Spring sleep without knowing the dawn, birds chirping everywhere, the wind and rain come at night, the flowers fall countless. Such a good poem, how can you listen to it? It becomes obscene. As the saying goes, words are the voice of the heart. Little Prince, I advise you to read less erotic picture books and learn more Buddhist scriptures. Only then can you develop your body and mind. "
Everyone stilled again. They had clearly heard him recite an erotic poem. How did it become so appropriate in the blink of an eye? No matter if it was an obscene poem or a perfect poem, Lin San had real ability to recite such a few lines.
"What a cunning mouth!" Zhao Kangning had suffered at his hands before and had learned. He smiled disdainfully. "Little Prince will not argue with you about useless things. Today, I am accompanying Miss Xu for a walk and have no time to accompany you. Miss Xu, I will go with you to the front to watch. Please! "
He raised his hand solicitously. Palace Attendant Xu nodded and walked to Lin Wanrong's side. She suddenly bowed to him. "Daren, can you enjoy with us?!"
Lin Wanrong smiled slightly and shook his head. "It is rare for me to be alone, so I will not mix with you. But Sister Changjin, you need to have a good state of mind to enjoy the flowers in spring. I see that you are not at peace and fear that you will ruin the beautiful scenery. "
A strange light flashed through Palace Attendant Xu's eyes. She hurriedly lowered her head. "Thank you, Daren, for your words. Changjin will remember them."
"How could you forget again?" Lin Wanrong suddenly smiled. "You have to call me Brother Wanrong!"
Xu Changjin's face flushed red. She turned her head away and didn't dare to speak. Zhao Kangning saw that the situation was not right and hurriedly stood between the two. "Official Lin, how can you be so presumptuous? Miss Xu is an envoy from Korea and an honored guest of China. If you bully her, I will definitely report you to the Emperor! "
Lin Wanrong laughed. "This is strange. I only spoke a few words with Sister Changjin, why does Little Prince want to report me? Little Prince, if you have the time, I suggest you do more meaningful things, such as maintaining world peace, upholding justice, and purifying society. These jobs are very suitable for you. "
Xu Changjin giggled and felt that something was wrong. She hurriedly covered her mouth. Zhao Kangning was annoyed, but this Lin San was not someone to be trifled with. He could only swallow his anger. Looking at the blood-red mountain next to them and the brilliant spring flowers, the young prince smiled at Xu Zhangjin. He waved his hand and pointed at the red mountain that covered the mountains and said, "Miss Xu, do you think these flowers are beautiful? Why don't I go pick some myself and give them to you? "
Xu Changjin hurriedly shook her head. "I don't dare to trouble Little Prince —" Zhao Kangning didn't listen to her. He laughed brightly and quickly walked towards the flowers on the mountain. "Miss Xu, please wait for me. I will be right back. "
This boy was good at picking flowers. Lin Wanrong laughed lewdly and glanced at Xu Changjin. They hadn't seen each other for two days. How did Xu Changjin get together with Zhao Kangning? This was a little strange.
"Daren, are you really out for a walk today? Why don't I see your wives? "Xu Changjin looked up at Lin Wanrong, then lowered her head and asked softly.
I'm here to pick you up. Do you believe me? Lin Wanrong laughed. "A walk? That's not a bad idea. To be precise, I'm here to pick flowers. Ai, I haven't picked flowers for a few years. I wonder if my skills are rusty? "
The little palace maid looked up at him and smiled. "Daren really knows how to joke. What skills do you need to pick flowers? Besides, there are wild flowers and weeds on the side of the road. How can you like them? "
"As the saying goes, home flowers are not as fragrant as wild flowers. I like wild flowers and weeds the most." Lin Wanrong scanned his surroundings and saw that Zhao Kangning's companions were all looking at them. He smiled mysteriously and whispered into Eldest Changjin's ear, "Younger Sister Changjin, the art of plucking flowers is very profound. There are many different postures, such as the back picking, the front picking, the back picking, the back picking, the back picking, and even the three picking at the same time. It's very interesting. We can discuss it when we have the time."
"Three people picking together?" Xu Changjin was stunned. Her big eyes blinked and she smiled. "Daren, you must be joking with me. Is there a difference between two and three people picking flowers? I think one person is enough! "
One person is enough? Lin Wanrong thought for a while and nodded. "Sister Zhangjin is really knowledgeable. Acting alone is really interesting. Sister Zhangjin, forgive me for asking. Do you usually eat bananas with your left hand or right hand?"
Xu Changjin looked at him in confusion. "Daren, what is acting alone? What does it have to do with eating bananas? When I eat bananas. I like to hold them with both hands — "
Lin Wanrong was shocked and took two steps back. "Holding them with both hands? Aiya, this is such a thick banana. I think Miss Xu will eat a few mouthfuls! Goryeo is really talented. Sister Zhangjin, come to my house to eat bananas when you are free. I have a big one at home. "
Xu Changjin's expression darkened. Worry appeared in her eyes. "Zhangjin also wants to visit daren's house and interact with you and your wife. But my Goryeo is in a dangerous situation. The country is on the brink of extinction. I don't know if Zhangjin will have the good fortune. "
Lin Wanrong made a sound of acknowledgment. He laughed. "Goryeo is in a dangerous situation so you set your sights on Cheng Wang. Maybe both of them can help you, right?"
Xu Changjin's expression changed. Her eyes filled with tears. She wailed in a low voice. "No. Daren, don't misunderstand. I — "
Lin Wanrong waved his hand. He smiled slightly. "Don't talk about national affairs, don't talk about national affairs. I came today to pick flowers. Talking about these things will spoil my mood. After the matter at Goryeo is settled, I will invite you to my house to play."
On the other side, Zhao Kangning had picked a large handful of dewy red flowers. His eyebrows danced as he excitedly sprinted down. His movements were elegant. After a few steps, he saw Lin San and Xu Changjin talking about something. Palace Attendant Xu's expression was shy and aggrieved. It was enchanting and moving. Zhao Kangning's face darkened. He gritted his teeth and snorted. He sprinted a few steps to stand between the two of them. He placed the red he picked into Xu Changjin's hands. "Miss Xu, do you think this flower is beautiful? Xiao wang picked it myself. It's a small token of my appreciation. I hope Miss will like it. "
Xu Changjin sneaked a glance at Lin daren. She saw his expression was calm. His hands were busy picking flowers everywhere as though he hadn't heard what Xiao wang had said. The little palace attendant lowered her head sadly and forced a smile. "Thank you, Xiao wang ye. Changjin doesn't dare accept such beautiful flowers!"
Zhao Kangning said attentively, "Miss Xu is too polite. You are the pearl of Goryeo. You are a hundred times more beautiful than these flowers. To be able to give you this bouquet of blooming flowers is Xiao wang's good fortune! Miss, please quickly accept it! "
This boy's skin is really thick. With your little skill in picking up girls, you dare to show off in front of me? Lin Wanrong found it funny. He picked a fiery red red and brought it to his nose to sniff. A faint fragrance floated and refreshed his heart.
Xiao wang was full of enthusiasm. If she didn't accept the flowers, it would be giving him face. Xu Changjin had a difficult expression. She lowered her head and didn't make a sound.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on him, Zhao Kangning became angry. He raised his voice and said, "Miss Xu, Xiao wang sincerely wants to be friends with you. You can't not even give me this little bit of face. My China and Goryeo have been good neighbors for generations."
He purposely emphasized the words' generations of friendship '. Xu Zhangjin's expression darkened when he heard this. He gritted his teeth and was about to extend his hand when he heard someone beside him laugh. "Xiao Wangye, your way of expressing yourself is quite unique. What does generations of friendship have to do with you sending flowers to the Miss?"
Hearing this voice, Xu Changjin's heart immediately relaxed. She let out a long breath and slightly raised her head to look at Lin Wanrong gratefully. She saw him holding a bright red flower in his hand and slightly shaking it. The fiery red petals reflected his smile and he looked very relaxed.
His good deed was interrupted. Zhao Kangning couldn't help but become angry. "Lin San, what is the meaning of this? I sincerely sent flowers to Miss Xu. What does it have to do with you? "
It has nothing to do with me? What a joke. I have the imperial order to pick up girls, but you brat obstructed me. You're already letting me off easy by not mobilizing the imperial army to beat you up! Lin Wanrong took two steps forward and gently shook the flower branch. He chuckled. "How can it have nothing to do with me? Miss Xu is my 'Sister Zhangjin'!"
Xu Changjin's face turned red. She lowered her head and didn't dare to speak. Zhao Kangning said angrily, "What Sister Zhangjin? Why would Miss Xu be in cahoots with you? You shameless scoundrel pretended to be her to take advantage of her."
Lin Wanrong laughed. "The one who wants to take advantage of her should be you, Xiao wang. As the saying goes, everyone tramples on injustice. I just couldn't stand it, so I spoke up for my Sister Zhangjin. "
"Lin San, how dare you slander me!" Zhao Kangning was furious. "I treat Miss Xu sincerely. What is there that you can't stand? Don't think that I can't do anything to you just because you say a few words in front of the Emperor. China belongs to the Zhao family! "
"It does belong to the Zhao family." Lin Wanrong laughed in disdain. "But this Zhao is not the Zhao family. Xiao wang, you said that you treat Sister Zhangjin sincerely and even gave her a beautiful flower. Then let me ask you, do you know? What is the name of the flower in your hand? "
What is the name of the flower? Zhao Kangning was taken aback. He was born with a golden spoon in his mouth, so he did not know how to distinguish between the four limbs and the five grains. Just now, he saw that the wild flower on the mountain was blooming beautifully, so he was in the mood to pick it and give it to Xu Changjin. How could he recognize the name of this wild flower?
Seeing that Xu Changjin was sizing him up, the Xiao wang panicked. He quickly winked at his companions behind him.
"Yunju —"
"Peony —"
"Cockscomb —"
"Bristlegrass —"
Everyone was guessing one after another. These were the children of wealthy officials. They could name precious flowers as soon as they opened their mouths, but they couldn't recognize any of the wildflowers on the mountain.
Xu Changjin laughed when she heard this. She secretly looked at Lin Wanrong and hurriedly lowered her head.
Careless, careless. Zhao Kangning was annoyed. When he saw Lin San's sneaky smile, he couldn't help but feel angry. He said angrily, "Do you recognize it? If you have the ability, then tell me. "
Lin Wanrong smiled and nodded. He sniffed the flower and slowly paced a few steps. "It's not strange to say the name of this flower. The Tibetan Tantric Sect calls it Gesang Flower. In Korea, it's called Jindalai! "
Xu Changjin was very excited when she heard this. She grabbed his hand and tears flashed in her eyes. "That's right. This is called Jindalai. It's the flower of my hometown. Every spring, Mount Jingang is covered with this red and purple Jindalai. It's very beautiful. Brother Wanrong, how do you know about Jindalai? You must have been to Korea. "
Hearing Xu Changjin call Wanrong brother, Zhao Kangning was so angry that his face turned pale. He angrily snorted. "I'm asking about the name in Chinese. Why do I need you to say Tibetan and Korean?"
"Don't be anxious. Listen to me slowly." Lin Wanrong smiled unhurriedly: "This beautiful little flower, in our Chinese language, is called azalea, also known as Red Mountain Reflection. Legend has it that there was an emperor in ancient Shu called Du Yu. He and his empress loved each other very much. Later, he was harmed by a villain and died tragically. His soul turned into a cuckoo and cried in the empress' garden every day. The tears it shed were drops of red blood. They dyed the beautiful flowers in the empress' garden red. That's why people called it Azalea. "
"When the empress heard the cry of the cuckoo and saw the red blood, she realized that it was her husband's soul. In her sorrow, she cried 'son, son, son' day and night. In the end, she died of depression. Her soul turned into a fiery red azalea and bloomed all over the mountains. It lived with the cuckoo. That's why the azalea is called Red Mountain. This is the story of the cuckoo crying blood and the son's cry. In Shu, there was a story about the bird and the azalea in Xuan City. The love between the bird and the flower is an immortal legend in the world. Little Prince, do you understand? "
He didn't expect this little wildflower to have such a poignant and beautiful origin. It was ridiculous that he had given Miss Xu this flower, but he couldn't even name it, let alone tell such an attractive story. Zhao Kangning's face alternated between red and white, extremely unsightly.
"The cuckoo crying blood, the son's cry." Xu Zhangjin felt sad and her eyes were misty. "So this Jin Da Lai has such a beautiful story. Daren, thank you for your teaching. Is there really such a love in the world that stays together and never forsakes?"
"The red of spring begins to fade and then the red of autumn. When the country dies, I come to the palace of Chu. It should be the endless cries of grievances in Shu. Color tells the west wind. Love is the foundation of human beings. There are countless love in the world that grows stronger with age. Miss Xu must have confidence in others and also in yourself. " Lin Wanrong smiled. He flicked the branch in his hand and slowly handed it to Xu Zhangjin. "With a green flower, two azaleas in Shu!"
