I see You Lian is the ally

Chapter 125

The third volume of Tianmen

——The wilderness in the extreme north is covered with endless white snow as far as the eye can see.

The sky was covered with red clouds, and the snow flakes were flying in disorder.

A falcon stretched its wings and glided through the air. It overlooked the vast white snow field, and a group of people in cotton clothes and thick shirts were reflected in its sharp eagle eyes.

They knelt on the snowy field, muttering to themselves, prostrating and bowing to a monster.

The monster looks like a horse, but it has a dragon's head, horns, bull's eyes, and a lion's body. It paces slowly with graceful steps. It is a huge unicorn.

——In the deep mountains, the rain poured down from the sky angrily, and the whole mountain was hidden in the vast rain and fog.

It was windy and rainy all night, and in the morning, dense water vapor rose from the mountains, and smoke was everywhere.

Several small streams mixed with broken branches rushed down the mountain road, and the air was filled with fresh floral and earthy smells.

A large piece of wisteria is in full bloom, and there are rolling raindrops on the flowers and leaves.

Suddenly, the flowers and leaves swayed, and water droplets rolled down.

A little fiery red fox poked its head out from behind the flowers and leaves, shook the water droplets on its body, and stretched out its paws to move the wet down on the fox's face.

——Lan'an City, in the Dujian Mansion.

The sun shines on the surface of the pool, and the blue waves are rippling.Groups of red koi swim freely in the pond.

A small green snake suddenly broke into the school of fish and slithered past, causing the school of fish to flee in all directions.The little green snake swam all the way to the grass on the bank, and the ducks living in the grass quacked in fright.

Only the mallard glanced at the little green snake calmly, and continued to lie on the grass.

It is already June and the weather is getting hotter.

The crabapple trees are becoming more and more lush, and the crown of the tree is like a giant umbrella, almost covering half of the courtyard.

Fiery red flowers bloom on the pomegranate trees below the steps, and red agates are generally dotted among the green leaves.

Hua Jiao is sitting in front of the table in the corridor, making osmanthus incense.

Lin Gu said that this is a kind of incense pill that mountain monks often smoke, and it is also often used by students to make refreshing incense.

Hua Jiao believes that if this incense is given to Yu Taiqing, it will naturally not be misunderstood by him for other meanings.

According to the incense recipe, she prepared all the spices needed and made them very carefully.

These days, her incense making skills can be regarded as getting better and better, and she is very proficient.

Hua Jiao hadn't seen Yu Taiqing for quite some time, since he resigned from Tianshu Division, he had never shown his face in public in Lan'an City.

Although others don't know why Yu Taiqing resigned, Huajiao knows it well.

His original identity was embarrassing. Rumor has it that his biological father was not the King of Nanzhao, but at that time, he was at least the emperor's nephew and the empress dowager's grandson.

Now, who is he?
How can the emperor rest assured that he will stay in Tianshu Division to work.

Hua Jiao also finally understood why the Empress Dowager sent Nanny Qu to monitor him, probably because she was afraid that he would tell the truth and that he would be connected with the Xiao family.

The corner of the painting is pounding spices every now and then.

These days, she sent Zhou Ling to the prison to secretly meet Xiao Qiukui once.

Zhou Ling still stayed in Tianshu Division to follow Chu Xian, and occasionally found opportunities to go to prison.However, he did not find out the whereabouts of the snake from Xiao Qiukui's mouth.Even Xiao Qiukui had never heard of snakes.

Come to think of it, Hua Snake would not come into contact with Xiao Qiukui in person.However, Zhou Ling found out by accident that the handmaiden beside Xiao Qiukui, Ah Rong, was the demon master of Tuanhua Valley.

Tuanhuagu is a sect that is as famous as the Yuncang Sect, and because of the popularity of the Yuncang Sect, Tuanhuagu disciples have been living in seclusion and hard to find their whereabouts. How could they be involved in this matter?

Hua Jiao pounded the spices and kneaded them into fragrant pills. When he was cleaning his hands, he received a reply from someone sent by Yu Taiqing.

A few days ago, Huajiao sent several posts to the Metropolitan Government, and finally received a response today.

The meeting between Huajiao and Yu Taiqing took place at the Wangjiang Tower in Qujiang Pond.

Last time, when she met him here as the leader of the Moon Companion League, she felt that in summer, the lotus in Qujiang Pond was in full bloom, and the scenery must be very beautiful.

When he arrived at Qujiang Pond, Hua Jiao was a little dumbfounded.

Indeed, as she imagined, the beautiful scenery is picturesque, with lotus leaves covering half of the Qujiang Pond, and the lotus is in full bloom, dark red and light pink, dazzling red.

It's just that there are too many people.

Everyone in Lan'an knows that the lotus in Qujiang Pond is in bloom. The dignitaries and dignitaries ride in carriages and the common people come here to enjoy the lotus.

The stone bridge is crowded with people, the boats on the water are next to the painted boats, and the stalls of the merchants and hawkers on the shore have set up a road, selling tea, food, pastries, as well as sachets, kites and playthings.

Hua Jiao originally wanted to go boating with Yu Taiqing on the Qujiang Pond to collect lotus, which seemed a bit difficult.

She was going to rent a boat, but the boat was gone, and there was only a painting boat left, although it was not particularly big, but it seemed a bit wasteful to only have her and Yu Taiqing.

The most important thing is that it is slightly expensive, and the corners of the picture are a bit painful.

She hesitated again and again, remembering her purpose for today, finally gritted her teeth, took out the silver, and ordered Zheng Xin and Zheng Heng to prepare some food and flowers.

When Yu Taiqing arrived, she saw a painting boat moored on the shore, and the decks at both ends of the boat were covered with branches of lotus.

There was the sound of clank and pipa in the cabin.

Di Chen said: "I heard that the boat girls on the Qujiang Pond are very famous. They hold a black-covered boat, play the qin and the drums on the boat, and entertain guests. I thought they only came out at night, and they will be here before dark?"

Yu Taiqing was looking around for Jiang Huajiao, not paying attention to Di Chen's words.Suddenly, the boatman on the bow took off his bamboo hat, waved to him, and shouted: "Yu Dujian, please get on board!"

Di Chen smiled awkwardly: "Your Majesty, it's not the boat lady, it's Miss Jiang's boat." He said that although the boat looked like a boat lady's boat, there were no red lanterns on the bow.

The two boarded the boat, Zheng Xin and Zheng Heng rowed the boat, and the boat left the shore quickly and headed for the Qujiang Pond.

Huajiao deliberately dressed up today, with a long flowing dress, and on her crow-black bun was the hairpin that Mrs. Yu gave away at Jixiang Pavilion that day.

She stepped out of the cabin, the lake wind was blowing, and her clothes were curled up.

She smiled and asked: "Yu Dujian, have you seen these flowers?"

Yu Taiqing glanced at the lotus flowers placed on the boat, and saw that these lotus flowers seemed to have just been picked, some had not yet bloomed, and some had already bloomed.

He asked with some doubts: "What is the meaning of this flower?"

Huajiao said with a smile: "For you."

Yu Taiqing was a little puzzled: "The lake is full of lotus flowers, so why pick so many lotus flowers and put them on the boat?"

Hua Jiao leaned over and picked up a half-bloomed lotus, handed it to Yu Taiqing, and said: "That's different, the flowers in the lake belong to everyone, and the flowers on the boat are bought by me from the flower farmers for two silver dollars. Yes, now I give them to you."

Yu Taiqing didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in the painted horn gourd for a moment, and asked, "Why did Lady Jiang send me flowers?"
