Emperor's Landing

Picking lotus girls by the Ruoye stream, laughing across the lotus and talking with others.The sun shines on the new makeup, the bottom of the water is bright, and the wind is fragrant and the sleeves are lifted in the air.

Whose family on the shore is You Yelang, reflecting the weeping willows in threes and fives.Zi Liu hissed into the falling flowers, seeing this hesitating and heartbroken.

—— "Plucking Lotus Song"

Sister Song and Dance said, "But—he is already dead."

"During the battle between immortals and demons, he was far away from the demon city, why did he die?" Di Yanying lamented.

"The details are unknown. But one person must know."

"The lotus picker of the fairy family, she has lived in seclusion in the mountains and rivers for a long time, but now she lives in the Yijiang River in Lin'an. The emperor can visit the lotus picker's residence."

"Okay, thank you sisters. I've been out for a long time today, it's time to go back. I hope the two sisters will take good care of them. If there is something urgent, you can go to Gudao Fengshuang to find me at any time."

"Prince, you really don't want our sisters to continue serving you?" the singing and dancing sisters asked to stay.

"I'm afraid he won't agree." Di Yanying pouted, and leaned aside.

Ying Qian hurriedly said, "Yes, I will take good care of the emperor, don't worry, sister."

After walking out of the Sisters of Song and Dance's mansion, Yingqian asked: "Why did you say 'I'm afraid I don't agree' just now?"

"Because you're so gloomy today, it feels like you're angry that I'm going to be taken away by my sister." After speaking, Di Yanying laughed.

"Pass through the market and buy some clothes for a few days trip to Lin'an." Di Yanying suggested.

"Are you rich? Boss." Ying Qian pouted.

"Having you is enough."

……

The distant mountains are harvested with greenery, and the Qimo is light and smoky.In the rainy days of early summer, the bustling alleys of Lin'an have washed away the leaden splendor and precipitated a bit of free and easy temperament.There is a wisp of cloud, and the broken rainbow hangs down the end of the tree.

Di Yanying and Yingqian changed their outfits and came to Qiantang.Sakura is still combing her high ponytail, while Di Yanying has two strands of hair tied behind her temples, tied into a bow and tied with a white hair band. The willow branches are naturally a kind of romantic rhyme.Di Yanying is wearing a snow-colored Confucian dress, with wide mouth and long sleeves, and a black twill ribbon around her waist. She has a slender figure, graceful steps, and a handsome and unrestrained posture, which is different from the past; Yingqian is the opposite, wearing black light clothing, Narrow mouth and long sleeves, a white patterned ribbon around the waist, and a neat little sword hanging from the right waist, coupled with a natural baby face, she looks more exquisite and cute than usual.

Along the way, Yingqian asked a few passers-by, but they all shook their heads and wondered where Yi Jiangnan was.

The two walked and admired the scenery, unknowingly the sun had set to the west, and they walked to a small stall on the outskirts. An old man was selling hot wontons, and there were few diners.Di Yanying suggested, "Go eat a bowl of wontons!"

"It smells so good." Da Yuanyuan Yingqian smelled the smell of rice, and ran first, "Old man, I want two big bowls of wontons."

When Di Yanying walked to the table, wontons were also served.

"I don't know if the old man knows where Yi Jiangnan is?" Di Yanying asked casually.

The old man heard this and said, "Yi Jiangnan, just ask the old man. Few people in Lin'an City know about it."

"Uncle, tell me." Yingqian said while eating wontons.

"I once met a young girl who said she lived in Yijiang River, on an island in the middle of a lake surrounded by mountains a hundred miles west of Lin'an City. The roads there are difficult and there are few people."

"Thank you, old man." Yingqian obediently wiped out a bowl of hot wontons, then held out her hands and said with a shy smile, "Please, old man, have another bowl."

Di Yanying was eating slowly, seeing Yingqian ordered another bowl, he sneered and said, "Your appetite is as big as a cow."

Yingqian complained, drawing out her voice, "My lord, oh my lord, you don't work, you don't have a backache."

"Recently, your temper has grown." Di Yanying glared at him.

"Following you will definitely make you worse. This is called like attracts like." Yingqian picked up the second bowl, stuffed two wontons into her mouth, and started chewing. I can recite all the bad things I did, do you want to tell you a few things?"

"Come, come, eat your wontons." Di Yanying pushed the unfinished wontons to Yingqian's mouth, "You just say you are a foodie." Brat, always can't lose his temper.I have already died once, so I can't be serious with a brat, there is no reason.

It was late at night, and the two found an inn to stay.

The night market in Lin'an City is brightly lit and bustling.

Yingqian kept repeating in Di Yanying's ear, "My lord, let's go eat some snacks!"

"No." "My lord, I want to eat some snacks." Yingqian even moaned, pretending to be wronged and crying, which made Di Yanying extremely uneasy. "Okay, eat, eat, walk!" In the end, he agreed to go out with Yingqian in desperation. He thought: He really committed too many crimes in his previous life, why should he tolerate this person so endlessly?Inexplicably, there is always a voice in my mind that wants to protect him.

Beef tripe, grilled fish, crab, haggis... Yingqian kept stuffing it into her mouth, and couldn't help but say, "It's delicious, and I want it." Not only to eat, but also to drink with it.Di Yanying, who was standing by the side, couldn't help sighing when he saw this rich man's extravagant spending: money can turn ghosts around.

He secretly made up his mind that he must take the road of armed seizure of power and hold the economic power in his hands tonight.After Yingqian took him through the night snack tour experience, he walked towards the inn contentedly, and said straightly: "Lin'an is really a good place. Young master, let's move our family here."

Seeing that he was half-drunk, Di Yanying promised: "Okay, okay, move, move." While he was not paying attention, he grabbed his money bag and hid it fluently, secretly screaming in his heart.

Early the next morning, Yingqian and Di Yanying set off.

Seeing a hotel open in front of him, Di Yanying said, "Let's go eat something."

Sakura didn't even think about it, "Okay."

After entering, Di Yanying sat down directly, and Yingqian went to order some food, "I'll have a beef stir-fry and two bowls of hot porridge."

After the dishes were served, Sakuraba Balabala kept talking.

Di Yanying didn't answer a word, and hurriedly finished eating and said, "I suddenly feel anxious and need to go to the latrine. You eat here slowly." Then he went out with a snickering smile.As soon as he went out, he jumped on the tile roof and listened quietly.

"It's delicious."

Di Yanying snickered.

"The young master is very abnormal today, and the devil still has diarrhea?"

Di Yanying laughed.

"Hurry up and finish eating, and go find the young master."

Di Yanying listened quietly.

"Little Er, check out."

"Ah, where's my wallet!"

"Xiao Er, wait a moment."

"Hey, give me the money, you don't need to look for it."

Xiao Er was dumbfounded...

Di Yanying's tongue dropped...

"Young master, you are here. My purse is gone, but luckily I am as smart as I am."

"So you put money under the soles of your feet, under your trouser legs, inside your underwear, and—" Di Yanying was stunned.

"Unexpectedly, I can only get money out of the soles of my shoes. I can't be like you, play a rogue and put a sword on Xiaoer's neck. I am a civilized person."

For the first time, Di Yanying felt admiration for Yingqian.

"Is this what you taught yourself while wandering in the rivers and lakes?"

"This boy is born with his own abilities."

"Your image is much shorter in my heart..."

"Hmph. I also pretend to be coquettish and rascal."

"You are getting more and more wild, why don't you come and be a son."

"No, son."

There is someone who is not annoying to cling to, and the journey is long and the night is lonely, and it becomes less lonely.

Di Yanying had an illusion for a moment: he seemed to be more and more like her.

Crossing mountains and ridges is simply not a matter for the two cherry butterfly spirit monsters.

"Young master, let's fly together." In the suburbs, under the clear sky.Yingqian suddenly spread her wings on her back vigorously, and her body flew lightly into the air.Before he left the ground, he grabbed Di Yanying by the back collar.Di Yanying has not been able to fully control his reborn body.After lift-off, a pair of glistening white wings on Di Yanying's back flipped out, shining dazzlingly under the sunlight.Yingqian slowly let go of her hand and flew high into the sky. Di Yanying also tried to follow behind him and fly with her wings.Afterwards, he could not only control the pair of wings freely, but also flip and dive in high altitudes.

"These wings are really interesting. If I had them when I was a child, I could play as much as I want." The image of Di Yan is to discover the new world, which is very novel, forgetting the fact that he can fly with magic power without wings at all.

Di Yanying asked: "Yingqian, weren't you very happy when you were young?"

"When I was young, my parents never let me fly around with my wings, so I got used to hopping."

"why?"

"My parents said that we are prisoners in the magic city and cannot move freely."

"Why don't you run away?"

"I don't know. However, when I was a child, I didn't like to fly alone. I liked to stand on the ground and watch other children play."

"Old rules. Compete on speed. Let's see who can find Yi Jiangnan first." Di Yanying flew over several mountains in one go.

In the distance, a vast ocean came into view.Di Yanying heard a beautiful female singing echoing from heaven and earth, which was the folk love song "The Song of Picking Lotus".

"The girl picking lotus by the Ruoye stream,

Laugh across the lotus and share human language.

Sunshine new makeup, bright water,

The wind is fragrant and the sleeves are lifted in the air. "

The singing sounds seem to be far away but near, seem to exist and seem to be absent, continuous, this woman seems to have profound skills, the sound of her voice is able to pierce through the mountains and rush to the distance.

"I found it, Yingqian." Di Yingying turned her head happily, seeing Yingqian as a lone spot in the sky, gradually chasing him slowly from a distance.

"Young master, don't play this game anymore. I can't fly anymore, give me a hand."

With a smirk on his face, Di Yanying stretched out his right hand to tighten Yingqian, and suddenly swooped down from the sky. The speed was so fast and the sky was so high that Yingqian was caught off guard, and his little heart was scared to death. The cry went all the way down, and the miserable sound scared away countless birds and wild birds.

When she landed, Yingqian's eyes dimmed, she collapsed to the ground, foaming at the mouth.The food I ate in the morning was also returned to the restaurant.

"I didn't expect that you, a veteran of flying, are also dizzy." Seeing this situation, Di Yanying felt the pleasure of revenge, and couldn't stop laughing wildly.

Looking for the graceful singing, the two walked all the way to the small island in the middle of the lake, and saw a peasant woman washing clothes by the stream. "Excuse me, are you the senior female Cailian?"

After hearing this, the peasant woman put down her clothes and straightened up, "I don't know who you two are?"

"We are Chenglan Youge's childhood friends."

"Come and sit in the room."

The lotus picker brought out some homemade rice wine, and the three of them sat opposite each other.

"My husband has passed away for many years." Cailian said.

"I also heard about it recently, so I wanted to come here to pay homage to my friend and learn more about it," Di Yanying said.

The lotus picker saw that this person did not seem to be a hypocrite, so she said, "Thank you for your concern."

"You Ge didn't participate in that tragic battle. He was obsessed with being carefree all his life and had no hatred. Why did he still die?" Di Yanying recalled the past.

"You Ge died after the Great War. Unexpectedly, the righteous way was reduced to evil spirits, and he did not hesitate to eradicate all the remnants of the evil way. Regardless of the reason, anyone who is involved with the devil way will be punished on the spot. You Ge is a member of the devil way. Although he has no intention of fighting, But in the end I was defeated by my opponent. For this reason, I officially broke with Xianmen. Now I am just a wife, Youge's wife, and the world has nothing to do with us."

"Dao Zun once said: In the righteous way, the only thing he admires is the heroine Cailiannu. You Ge really saw the right person." Di Yanying sighed.

"It's just a false name. His tomb is here, let me take him to see him." The lotus picker went to the house to prepare a basket of fruit, vegetable and cakes, and walked to the mountains.

On the way to pick lotus girls, they sang the song "Lotus Picking Song" again.

"The girl picking lotus by the Ruoye stream,

Laugh across the lotus and share human language.

Sunshine new makeup, bright water,

The wind is fragrant and the sleeves are lifted in the air. "

"I don't know what commemorative significance this song has?" We heard this tune just now when we came here.

"It's a poem he sang when we first met."

"Love of righteousness and evil, you must have encountered many difficulties, right?" Yingqian asked curiously.

"From the beginning of love, it goes deeper and deeper. There is no righteous demon! Demons are just people's hearts."

Di Yanying thought of Ye Maozi.
