Chapter 11

During the Peony Festival, florists from all over the world bring their carefully crafted peonies, hoping to find a bosom friend here and exchange ideas.

The peonies on the flower festival are also allowed to be sold. As long as the two parties reach an agreement, they can pay for the flowers and pay for the goods.

Yun Zanyue is not particularly fond of peonies, but this time the Flower Festival is hosted by Guan Qingyao, it would be unreasonable for her son-in-law not to be present. In order to avoid rumors, Yun Zanyue decided to go out of the house with Guan Qingyao to the scene take a look.

The peony flower is gorgeous in color, fragrant like pearls, romantic and unrestrained, and magnificent, and is known as the "king of flowers".Every year on the occasion of the Peony Flower Festival, it is naturally a time of great crowds. In order to maintain the order of the flower festival, the Luoyang Order will send three government servants to take charge of the flower festival inspection work on the day of the flower festival.

The curfew in Luoyang City was lifted on the day of the Peony Flower Festival. Flower lovers waited to see if there would be rare peonies in the flower market, while those outside the city went to see and join in the fun.

As soon as Guan Qingyao arrived at the flower market, she went to the flower pavilion first. All the peonies that could be displayed in the flower pavilion were famous and very precious.Huage has been distributing invitations since its establishment. The people who are sent to the invitations are either rich or noble, and the people invited are extremely wide.

Yun Zanyue followed Guan Qingyao into the house, and the servants in the pavilion first saluted when they saw someone coming in, and then went to do what they should do.

Seeing this, Yun Zanyue also became curious, thinking who is the boss behind the flower pavilion, who actually raises his subordinates so humblely, if they have the opportunity to meet each other, they can also exchange ideas on the way of imperial servants.

There are two floors in the flower pavilion. There is an exhibition stand in the center of the first floor. It is presumably that the peony pots will be placed on it for people to appreciate after the flower festival begins. As for the rest, there are private rooms with different names on the private rooms. , and when I got closer, I realized that there were two lines of small characters engraved under the name, both of which were the origin of the name of the Yajian.

Ever since Guan Qingyao stepped into the flower pavilion, she seldom opened her mouth, until she entered her own private room.

However, it was Yun Zanyue who made her speak.

Yun Zanyue has been in the deep palace since she can remember, and she doesn't know much about folk affairs. If it wasn't for avenging her brother, she would still be the carefree, innocent princess of Daxi, so she would know about folk affairs.

Now she has been in the world for four or five years.She had heard about the Peony Festival in Daxi but had never seen it. Naturally, she wanted to go out and have a look at the flower market today, but... she came with Guan Qingyao, so it would be impolite to leave at this time.

Just when Yun Zanyue was thinking about what excuse to find, she heard what Guan Qingyao said, which just solved her urgent need.

"The auction in the flower pavilion has not started yet, so the concubine can walk around first. Don't let the flower pavilion auction start after half an hour. If the concubine is still outside by then, he won't be able to enter."

"Princess, don't worry, Zihan is just walking around and looking around, it won't take long."

"This is a keepsake of Hua Pavilion. When the son-in-law returns, take it out and show it to the guards outside the pavilion before you can enter." Guan Qingyao took out a wooden plaque from her sleeve and handed it to Yun Zanyue. Please remember to put it away, Prince Consort."

"Princess don't worry."

Guan Qingyao then said a few more words before letting Yun Zanyue leave. Seeing Yun Zanyue's back had just left the private room, Guan Qingyao asked Chen Xin to go with her.

"Princess, are you worried about the son-in-law?" Chenzhu saw that Guan Qingyao was so interested in Yun Zanyue, and thought that Her Royal Highness seemed to be paying more attention to the son-in-law than a few days ago. Could it be that he was tempted?She clearly remembered that the princess and the son-in-law had three chapters in the agreement, and they were a loving couple in front of others, but as for the queen, they had nothing to do with each other.If this is the case, the princess should not have sent Chen Xin there.The guards in the mansion will naturally follow and protect the son-in-law in secret, and will definitely not let the son-in-law suffer.

"...He is my son-in-law, it's normal for me to be worried about him."

Chen Zhu didn't say much after hearing this, and stood behind Guan Qingyao to wait for orders.

"How about the peony you sent yesterday?"

"Back to the princess, Baixue Pagoda is a peony variety carefully cultivated by the princess. Yesterday, Chenzhu sent someone to take care of it."

Guan Qingyao nodded when she heard this, and it was considered to be an exposition.

As for Yun Zanyue at the other end, she has already started shopping in the flower market at this time. She found that although it is the Peony Festival, there are also many other varieties of flowers. It seems that the flower merchants want to take this opportunity to do more. a deal.

After walking around, Yun Zanyue also lost some interest. She didn't like flowers in the first place, and she came here today because of her current status. She originally thought that Guan Qingyao, as the leader of this peony festival, should also Showing up is the only way to end up sitting directly in the private room.

Huage is famous in the flower market. It is easy to find Huage, but it really takes a lot of effort to get in.

Yun Zanyue was stopped outside the flower pavilion, and was not allowed to go until she showed the wooden sign Guan Qingyao gave her.

Now the flower pavilion is much more lively, the servants come and go in an endless stream, presumably the guests in the private room order food.

Yun Zanyue returned to the original private room, and saw that only the maids from the mansion were left inside, and Guan Qingyao and the others were not there. After asking, she found out that it was the owner of the Flower Pavilion who had invited her, saying that she had come back before the auction.

Yun Zanyue couldn't just go there without being invited by the owner, after all, this is the pavilion owner's territory, and seeing the maids' usual appearance, Yun Zanyue felt a little relieved.

After about a moment, Guan Qingyao came back.

"Princess."

"My son-in-law is wandering around the flower market, what do you see?"

"Zihan doesn't know much about flowers and plants, but he just thinks everything is beautiful, and he didn't see any that he was particularly happy with."

"Well, let's see this."

Seeing Guan Qingyao handing over a booklet, Yun Zanyue opened it curiously and found out that it was the booklet for today's auction.

Yun Zanyue sat next to Guan Qingyao, stretched out her hand to pour tea for herself, "Does the princess like it?"

"nature."

Yun Zanyue was holding the teacup, and seeing Guan Qingyao's response, she thought that today's auction might be very interesting, so she immediately asked, "I don't know which variety the princess likes?"

"Wei Zi."

"Wei Zi is one of the four famous species of peony. There are many flowers handed down by the people, and the number of leaves is as high as seven hundred. Qian Sigong tasted it and said: "People call the king of peonies. Today Yao Huangzhen is the king, and Wei Hua is the queen. also."

"What the son-in-law said is very true."

"The princess mainly likes it, and Zihan is willing to do his best."

"In this case, I will trouble the prince-in-law."

After another moment, the sound of gongs and drums came from downstairs.

Presumably the auction has started.

The doors of each private room were opened at this time, and there were tables and chairs placed on the corridor, and bells hung on the table.

"According to what is written in the register, Wei Zi can be called the finale product. There will be a lot of honors participating in the auction. I don't know if the son-in-law has brought enough money for this trip?"

"Princess don't worry about this, if it is photographed, Zihan will send someone back to the mansion to collect the silver."

At this time, Yun Zanyue, who looked like a dandy, smiled for Bomei, and fell into the trap dug by Guan Qingyao unknowingly, and it was too late when he realized it.

The peonies that can be auctioned in Huage are all famous products, and there are many species that are extremely difficult to cultivate.Yun Zanyue doesn't care about those breeds, she just needs to photograph Wei Zi, and Bo Guan Qingyao will be happy.

Wei Zi is precious, and there are many people who like it. When it is Wei Zi's turn, all the bells are ringing non-stop, and the silver has already exceeded ten thousand guan.

The longer the delay, the higher the price will naturally be.It's just that Yun Zanyue had never participated in the auction, and was worried that the bid would be too high and the mansion would not be able to turn around, so she was always hearing shouts from all over the front.Now——"My lord pays [-] guan and ten bolts of silk cloth."

"[-] strings plus [-] bolts of silk cloth."

"Ten thousand guns plus twenty bolts of silk cloth."

"22 strings plus [-] bolts of silk cloth."

……

"Ten thousand guns plus fifty bolts of silk cloth."

As soon as Yun Zanyue finished speaking, there was complete silence in the flower pavilion, and finally successfully photographed Wei Zi.

"Take this item to the merchant to withdraw money, so they can move faster." Yun Zanyue saw that she had successfully photographed it, so she immediately took off the jade pendant around her waist and handed it to the guards in the princess mansion.

"My subordinate, go here."
