Tyrant, he wants to spoil me

Chapter 271 Dao

Chun and Jingming.

Black tiles and white walls, small bridges and flowing water, a flat boat passes through Gusu City along the water.

The little girl in aqua blue dress was lying on the stern of the boat, her white and tender hands dipped into the water, leaving a long string of water ripples.

Xiao Tingchen stood at the bow of the boat, as far as he could see was a simple and dilapidated palace on the top of the mountain ahead.

He smiled and asked, "Little Jiu'er, do you know where that is?"

"I do not know."

"It's called Guanwa Palace. According to legend, it was a palace built by King Wu Fucha for Xishi. The river we passed was named Xiangxi. Does Xiaojiuer know the origin of Xiangxi?"

The little girl sat upright as if she was listening to a class in an academy.

She shook her head seriously.

Xie Rongjing, who was sitting by the small stove grilling fish, was full of complacency, "Of course it's because the name Xiangxi sounds nice. Could it be called Chouxi?"

Xiao Tingchen smiled, "It is said that Xishi is born with a strange fragrance, and she often bathes and dresses in this river. Over time, this river is also stained with the fragrance of powder, so it is called Xiangxi."

"So that's how it is." Su Jiu was full of admiration, "Little brother, you know a lot!"

Xiao Tingchen smiled lightly and brushed off his wide sleeves, "This river is very clear, using the water in it to make incense can probably get twice the result with half the effort, and you can bottle a little wine and take it home."

Su Jiu was like a good baby, he couldn't wait to take the glass bottle to hold water.

Xie Rongjing's eyes moved slightly, and he also took a bottle to hold water.

Su Jiu sealed the bottle and asked curiously, "Brother Xie, do you want to make incense too? By the way, did you participate in the Hexiang Contest in Jiangnan last time? Besides me, someone else was also selected, okay?" I want to know who that person is..."

The Wa Kingdom Pillow Incense Museum is going to visit Jiangnan in autumn, nominally to discuss the way of incense, but in fact it is to provoke Da Qi.

In order to win, Hua Lao has to select five highly skilled young people to participate.

Lord Fusheng, Jiang Yanqi and Xu Zizhu had been pre-determined, so there were only two places left for the competition.

Facing the little girl's curious and probing eyes, Xie Rongjing looked away unnaturally, "I don't make incense! Xiao Huaijin has said that the water quality of this stream is good, can't I take it back and wash my face? It's good for the skin!"

Su Jiu raised his eyebrows, not understanding why he reacted so violently.

While eating grilled fish, Xiao Tingchen sat next to the little girl, and he seemed to mention it casually, "The Japanese Pillow Incense House has been operating incense for hundreds of years, and the young people it cultivated later became famous masters of incense in the world. It should not be underestimated. This visit is not something that Xiao Jiuer can handle casually by making a few flavors of Hexiang."

Su Jiu took small bites of the grilled fish and listened carefully.

"Everything has its way. For example, Confucianism emphasizes benevolence, Mohism emphasizes non-aggression, and Legalism emphasizes order. These are all ways, and making incense is no exception. Xiaojiuer, have you thought about it seriously, your way of incense What is it?"

"My fragrance?"

The little girl is confused.

She only knows that the scented powder and scented pills smell good, but she doesn't know what else to pay attention to.

After thinking for a long time, she shook her head, "Little brother, I have no idea."

The young man touched her little head, "Then, now you can think carefully about what the 'path' you are going to take."

Light boats and small boats go along the river, passing the rolling green hills all the way to Jinling City.

In the spring of this year, everything revived.

Su Jiu is nine years old and Xiao Tingchen is 16 years old.

　The small map is arranged in Gusu because I want to write about the Xiangxi River and Guanwa Palace, but these two are not the focus, hahaha.

　　When I was in high school, I went to Soochow University to take the self-enrollment exam, but I didn't play when I came back after the exam.I wanted to go to Suzhou before writing this time, but I didn’t go because I was too (not) lazy (money). If I went, I would probably write more realistically.
