Earth Immortal Righteous Path

Chapter 109
Baihua's birthday is a good day, and the spring is not yet halfway through the flowers;

Thousands of reds and purples are covered with brocade, and Shanglao embellishes them to congratulate the God of Flowers.

February [-]th is the Flower Festival, also known as Hundred Flowers’ Birthday, Flower God’s Day.

It's early spring, when it's warm and cold, and a hundred flowers are blooming, forming an interesting contrast.

Gardeners and flower lovers from all over the country gather in the county town, flower farmers carry peonies into the city to sell, men and women stroll among the flowers, and there are seas of flowers everywhere.

There is also the Temple of Flowers outside the city, where many people set up offerings, and there will be temple fairs at night.

In the middle of the night, it is a good time to hold a flower lantern and parade around the Flower Temple. Boys and girls who love each other take this opportunity to date.

On this day, there is also the custom of eating flower cakes. The flower cakes made by collecting hundreds of flowers have a strong fragrance and have always been very good food.

Naturally, the Xun family also prepared flower cakes, and they were preparing them ten days ago. They collected fresh flower petals, mixed them with new rice, mashed them, and made them into flower cakes, and added sugar to make them into various exquisite styles.

Xun Or will never forget to give Zhou Xun a copy, a large food box full of all kinds of flower cakes, including rabbits, carved flowers, landscapes, flowers and birds...
Zhou Xun gently picked up a piece of flower cake with his fingers and made it into the shape of a white rabbit. He smelled the fragrance of flowers, and the mouth was soft and sweet. The rich fragrance of flowers instantly filled his heart...

"This craftsmanship is really good."

Zhou Xun's index finger moved wildly, and picked out another piece of dragon and phoenix cake. Suddenly he was reluctant to eat it, and held it in his palm to play with it carefully, admiring the shape of the cake, which was exquisite and beautiful, with clear lines.

After that, every time he eats a piece, he always has to watch it first. The various exquisite patterns and styles really opened his eyes.

Zhou Xun simply took the flower cake and came to the garden.

The flowers in the garden are just in bloom and colorful.

Looking at this flower scene, Zhou Xun ate the flower cake, as if he had eaten the entire Flower Festival.

"Is the flower cake still delicious?"

Xun Gu was also admiring the flowers and eating cakes, but he was sitting by the pavilion, and there was an extra pot of wine on the small table.

There is also a small stove under the stone table with charcoal ready to warm the wine at any time.

"I have eaten flower cakes in the past, but they are not as delicate as Master Xun's."

Zhou Xun walked towards the pavilion with a food box in one hand and a flower cake in the other.

In Xun's family, no more than other families, there is no need to be too restrained.

Zhou Xun went across to Xun or, eating flower cakes, talking about some articles and poems, and finished eating a food box of flower cakes in a while.

"Every flower dynasty, literati go out to write poems, and children meet with butterflies. Mingcheng might as well go to the Temple of Flowers outside the city today, and I think he will gain something."

Xun may say something mysterious.

Thinking about it, Zhou Xun seemed to have something to do with the God of Flowers. This place has always had a tradition of praying and blessing the gods, so it is not a bad idea to go to the Temple of the God of Flowers.

"What is the meaning of the teacher's words? What is so special about the Temple of Flowers?"

But Zhou Xun still asked.

"Ha, I can't say it, I can't say it, you can see that person when you go. Calculate the time, she will probably be there today, hurry up, don't miss the good time!"

Zhou Xun was at a loss and was overtaken by Xun He.

Seeing Zhou Xun leave, Xun Yu smiled mysteriously.

"The girl from the Lin family is going to the Flower Temple to worship the gods today, and Mingcheng just went to see her. If it's suitable, the marriage will be done."

Earlier, when Lin Ruhai visited the mansion and brought his little daughter with him, he knew what the other party meant.

Although the daughter of the Lin family is young, when it's time to see her, she starts to choose early, which is better than rushing to choose when Jiji comes.

"This Lin Ruhai is also infatuated, and he refuses to continue. It's always a woman's business to see someone for his daughter, so it's hard for him to be a master!"

"Mingcheng's reputation is still a bit low. Fortunately, there is Enke here. With good luck, he will be able to pass the township examination, general examination, and palace examination within three years. There is no need to wait any longer. Three years later, If you can win Tanhua, it is suitable to marry a daughter of the Lin family."

The township examination and the general examination are held every three years, and the time does not coincide. Therefore, the candidates who pass the general examination will wait for another two years before the general examination.

Enke was an additional exam announced by the emperor for various reasons, which was added outside the stipulated time.Enke is exactly the same as the normal imperial examination, but the time is earlier.

"This kid Mingcheng, when I first met him, I thought he was a talent. He had three points of talent, he was easy to train, and it was not difficult to pass the exam. A Jinshi depends on his luck. But after the county examination, he showed some real color, which made the old man notice. These old eyes He has read countless people, and he rarely misses it. Mingcheng is a famous minister with the ability and talent. He will be a good minister for a generation of famous ministers in the future. The Zhou family has prospered from now on, and it is because of this son."

"With this disciple, the old man will be able to write a famous history, and he will have a spirit after death. It's God's will!"

Xun He, who is old and sophisticated, has also noticed Zhou Xun's subtle changes these days, so he uncharacteristically paved the way for Zhou Xun so diligently.

The so-called talents are talents and tools. Those with high talents but narrow skills are mostly not tolerated in official careers.

Equipment, in Feng Shui, is pattern; above luck, it is fate.

However, in the eyes of people like Xun Ji who have read the scriptures well, measure means how to behave in the world, the experience of mind and nature, and the subtle habits of standing and lying movements, and it is the synthesis of all these.

Before Zhou Xun awakened his true spirit, he was just a young man from the countryside. Even if he had read books and had some literary talents, how much knowledge would he have?However, awakening to all kinds of past lives, there is no lack of experience of being in power and stirring up the wind and clouds, and there is also the loneliness of the fairyland and the unique scenery. The father who had met day and night came, so he was inevitably suspicious. Of course, this was also one of the reasons why Zhou Xun didn't want to go home.

"Master Xun refuses to say it clearly, is there an arrangement?"

"A few days ago, the prefect of Lin often sent posts. Maybe it has something to do with the Lin family?"

"The teacher mentioned last time that the Lin family intends to get married. Could it be possible to meet this magistrate during this trip?"

Zhou Xun was thinking in the carriage.

As for that prefect Lin, when he went back, he wrote to his father and got the news.

Lin Ruhai used to be a first-ranked proctor, and was first released as a ninth-rank county magistrate, and then served in many places. Now he has been promoted to a fifth-rank magistrate. He has a good official style and a lot of connections.

There are three generations of nobles in the family, and their savings are not small, enough to have millions of family assets. It is a pity that the Lin family has been passed down for several generations, and in this generation, there is only one daughter. Lin Ruhai is unwilling to continue. .

If Zhou Xun married a daughter of the Lin family, he would have a lot of help in his career in the future. This is not comparable to Xun Yu and Zhou Gui's connections.

Most of the contacts of the latter two are not current officials, not like Lin Ruhai. In the same year, many of them were officials outside.

For this closed disciple, Xun Yu also worked hard to pave the way for him, and this is how today's Huashen Temple and his party came into being.

This is also an opportunity for Lin Ruhai to take a look at Zhou Xun. If he thinks it is good, he can make a marriage contract in advance and get married when he is named on the gold list.
