Dream Hua Embers Records

The second day of the new year.

All the shops in Daliang Chengfang and alleys have been opened. From Panlou Street to Waiyao Road, there are high-rise colorful sheds selling crown combs, jewels, hair masks, clothes, flowers, collar wipes, boots, toys, and other vendors. with one.Restaurants, teahouses, dance halls and song halls are also full of customers and bustling places, which are no different from previous years.

Perhaps it was because of the auspiciousness of the crane dance at Xuande Gate at Zhengdan, or the joyous atmosphere of Zhao Suzong and Yuan Guoyi Wang on the tower, or just because the New Year is a big festival that always needs to be celebrated.In short, the people of Daliang City seemed to let go of their worries, and suddenly became relaxed and happy.

On New Year's Eve, the emperor issued another edict: "It's been raining for days, lack of firewood, and the family is suffering. It hurts in my heart. I have ordered many ways to deal with it. I sell firewood and rice at a reduced price. I have a small fortune. I owe the people, and I have nothing to say, so This is an edict, I think you should know about it." On the first day of the Lunar New Year, dozens of rice farms were added to Sibi to sell official rice, and porridge sheds were set up.When the poor people had a secure diet, they also took off their sad faces and changed into happy ones. They all put on new and clean clothes and went around to celebrate the New Year.

Yan Yin was still pulling Puhan to watch the fun at the top of the city.

"Look! Look! There are our people over there, and they have gone down to the city!" Yan Yin pointed to the city with one hand, and tugged on Puhan's lapel with the other.

In fact, Puhan had already seen that the rules in Yuan Guo's army were that from the first day to the third day of the third day, the military law was not prohibited, minor offenders would not be punished, and those who violated the law would not be executed.Because of the drinking and revelry on New Year's Eve, everyone's minds were aroused, so on the morning, those brave soldiers secretly went down to the city to have fun together.This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you miss this village, you won’t have this shop. How about having fun?Being caught is nothing more than a meal of military sticks, not to mention that you may not be caught.

Seeing that Puhan didn't respond, Yan Yin said again: "I also want to go down to the city to play, if they can go down, so can we." After finishing speaking, she turned her head to look at Puhan's face.

Puhan smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid that the prince will beat you if he finds out?"

Yan Yin's face darkened when she heard this, and she frowned and thought for a long time before she said: "It's nothing to hit me, my father loves me, so I won't hit you too hard. It's just that I can't hurt you... If you say you take me If you go down to the city, father will blame you, if I go down to play by myself, father will also blame you, what should I do?"

Pu Xianyan's face was serious and thoughtful, and he couldn't help but rubbed his hair lovingly, and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about me, worry about yourself first! Do you just want to go on playing like that?"

"Yeah!" Yan Yin nodded, "Brother Prince told me a lot about the delicious food in Daliang City, I want to try it, and... Father's birthday is coming, I want to buy him a present."

"Oh?" Puhan was startled, "Is it the prince's birthday?"

"What? You have followed your father since childhood, and you don't even know his birthday?"

"We Beimo people don't know the calendar. When the grass is green and yellow, it is considered a year old. When a child is born, if any flower blooms, we will celebrate his birthday the next time that kind of flower blooms. So, I don't remember much. When is the prince's birthday?"

"Then when were you born?"

"Zihuadiding."

"Ah! That should be February! It's almost here! I will pay attention every day! Then I will celebrate your birthday and give you a gift!"

Puhan hugged Yan Yin lightly, and asked, "When is your birthday? I remember the prince mentioned that it is also winter."

Yan Yin smiled slyly: "I won't tell you! You will know when my father celebrates my birthday."

"If you don't tell me, how can I prepare a gift for you?"

"If you take me down to the city, it's a gift."

Puhan nodded and replied, "Okay..."

"It won't cause you to be beaten, right?" Yan Yin was still worried.

"No, during the three days from the first to the third day of junior high school, military law is not practiced in the army." Puhan asked casually, "What gift do you want to buy for the prince?"

"I haven't thought about it either... I don't know what my father likes..." Yan Yin frowned and thought.

"My lord likes good weapons and armor, but all these things have been confiscated in the city."

"Soldier armor?" Yan Yin tilted her head and thought for a moment, "Is the belt good? Yesterday when I went to the Zhao Kingdom's palace, my father wore a golden scorpion around his waist, but I think those Zhao people wear jade belts, that is. That kind has many pieces of jade on it, and there are patterns carved on it!" Yan Yin said while gesturing with her fingers the shape and size of the jade belt.

"That kind of thing... shouldn't be something you can buy casually in the market, right?" Puhan was a little uncertain.

After hearing this, Yan Yin was a little discouraged, "Then why don't you go and have a look! Buy what you find suitable."

"Yeah." Puhan nodded again, "Tomorrow, I'll take you there tomorrow!"

"Why wait for tomorrow, can't today?" Yan Yin twisted her body in reluctance.

"I'm going to get a pair of Zhao Guo's clothes, I can't wear this."

"Why not? Aren't they just wearing soldiers' clothes?" Yan Yin pointed at the city, where there were more and more Yuan soldiers in twos and threes.

"They can do it, but we can't. It's not safe. It's better to change clothes. Also, I need to prepare some Zhao Guo's copper coins. Gold and silver won't work, and they may not dare to accept it."

Yan Yin nodded, "Okay! You go to prepare, I'll ask the prince brother, where can I find delicious food, where can I buy gifts, and draw a road map, we will follow the map and go back early tomorrow, okay? "

At such a young age, Pu Jianyan Yanyin was able to plan things in an orderly manner, so she couldn't help admiring secretly.

"Why do you have to go early and return early?" Puhan asked.

"Because... the king will come to see me tomorrow, and it would be bad if he found out that we had entered the city secretly."

"How do you know that the prince will come?" Puhan thought to himself that the eldest prince and the second prince had already led troops to Hebei and Hedong respectively to hand over the cities, and there were only the prince and Chongwang left here. If you don't watch the new year with this child, you may not come tomorrow.

"I just know! But I won't tell you!" Yan Yin raised her head and smiled.

In the Qing Palace, the plum blossoms are half falling, and the snow is melting slightly.

Yan Yin propped her chin with both hands, watching Prince Kang Mao draw the streets and shops in Daliang with a brush on the jade leaf paper.

"From Zhuquemen to Longjinqiao, there is the Zhouqiao night market. There are all kinds of snacks, and the most expensive ones are only a dozen or so. The market is open at night on weekdays, and it is only in the middle of the night, and it opens early in the morning during the New Year's Eve. Here in the east corner of Xuandemen, there is a Panlou Hotel, which is famous for all kinds of aquatic game. To the east is Sangjia Wazi, where you can watch plays and juggling. And here, you should have seen it at the top of the city, the three-story hotel This is the largest restaurant in Daliang. If you want to buy utensils, you have to go to Xiangguo Temple Dongmenqian Street, which is the most complete. If you want to eat sweets, go to Jinglinggong Dongmen Street to the east Sweetwater Lane..."

While talking, Kang Mao sketched and sketched. Although it was just a map drawn in plain lines, the elegant and ancient gossamer strokes, with smooth and round lines, like gossamer, were continuous, but it showed a good skill.

"Brother Prince, what do you want to eat? I'll bring it back for you."

"No need..." Kang Mao's eyelashes trembled slightly, and his voice was a little excited, "Did you see my father yesterday? How is he?"

"Hmm...he's very nice, and his voice is nice." Yan Yin thought about Zhao Suzong Kangyan's young face and old hair, and didn't know what to say.

"What about my other brothers?"

"Other brothers..." Yan Yin blinked her eyes and thought for a while, "There are a lot of them, the older ones are as old as you, and the younger ones are still in the nurse's arms. I can't tell who is who. I don't know what you want to ask. One?"

Kang Mao shook his head, stopped talking, just picked up a pen and marked the name of the place on the map, with a delicate thin gold body, tall and straight.

"Hey... If only I could learn calligraphy and painting from you..." Yan Yin sighed with emotion.

Kang Mao raised his head, his eyes met Shang Yanyin's expectant eyes, his heart softened, and he agreed, "Okay! After two days of free time, I will teach you."
