The protagonists have golden fingers

In August, the lake level is too clear.

There was a heavy rain not long ago in Hanzhou, and the weather was getting cooler day by day, but this did not affect the interest of the people in Hanzhou at all.

They walked on the street in groups and festooned with lanterns, holding the lotus lanterns they made themselves, and came to the shore of Pinghu Lake together to perform the ceremony of lighting up the lanterns to pray for blessings.

On the shore of Pinghu Lake, there are many painting boats moored.The sound of silk and bamboo came from the painting boat covered with a layer of tulle, which attracted people on the shore to stop and watch.

In the largest painting boat in Pinghu Lake, a handsome young man in a black gown was sitting by the window, and the person at the same table with him lowered his head and poured wine. His long eyelashes were illuminated by the dim light, like a butterfly about to fly;

Light incense was burning inside the boat, and behind the bamboo curtain screen, several singers were playing and playing, the music was melodious.

After a while, the young man by the window smiled lightly and said, "I didn't expect that to end so soon." His voice was hoarse, and there was a bit of disappointment in his tone.

The young man opposite him looked up at him, didn't speak, but picked up the wine cup and brought it to his lips to take a sip.

The mellow aroma of wine and flowers immediately filled his mouth, and the wonderful taste made him stretch his brows and eyes, and a smile appeared on his face.

Seeing this, Young Master Junxiu put his elbows on the table with a smile, leaned over, and said to him: "How does it taste?"

"Don't you know if you taste it yourself?" The young man took another sip of the wine, seeming to like the taste very much.

Young Master Junxiu laughed, raised his hand suddenly, pressed the back of the opponent's neck, and embraced him, ignoring his suddenly widening eyes, bowed his head and kissed him.

After a while, he let go of his hand, wiped away the bloodshot lips with his thumb with a smile, and cast a winking look at him: "It tastes good!"

The young man whose lips were red and swollen from the kiss wiped his mouth vigorously, then stared at it expressionlessly.

"Okay, okay, I was wrong, let's not make an example, okay?"

The handsome young master hastily raised his hands in surrender, clasped his palms together and bowed twice, begging for mercy.

The young man snorted, turned his face away, lowered his head and continued drinking.It's just that the tips of his ears are red, and it's hard to tell if he's angry or shy.

Mr. Handsome sat down again, and the noise on the shore became louder.Through the hazy window screen, you can see the bright lights on the shore.He repeated it with emotion: "It ended too soon."

This time, the young man was finally willing to talk to him: "What? Could it be that you still want to be like 300 years ago, and last for three to five years?"

"There's no need for this!" The young master quickly shook his head like a rattle, "Life is short, and there is no best thing for this kind of thing. If you really can't avoid it, the less the better! I want to spend the rest of the time with you." Spend together, how can you be willing to waste a little bit on these things?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he was stared at again unsurprisingly: "Slick tongue."

"I'm telling the truth. Yan'er, you are just too thin-skinned!"

"I'll just throw you off the boat, and swim back to the inn by yourself!"

"You know I'm not good at swimming, so why threaten me with this?"

These two people are Gu Zhuangcheng and Shen Yan who couldn't wait to play around after helping to repair all the formations in the capital.

They become more and more naive as you speak and I speak. The singers playing music on the boat are all deaf, and they have the right to think that they are deaf.

After leaving the capital, their first stop was Hanzhou.The reason is that when leaving, Su Lanqing who came to see him off accidentally mentioned that there will be a flower boat festival in Hanzhou in August.

After shedding all the heavy burdens, Shen Yan, who was inexplicably interested in all kinds of strange things, made a final decision, and pulled Gu Zhuangcheng straight to Hanzhou.

After the two arrived in Hanzhou, the Flower Boat Festival had just begun.The local people told them that there are seven or eight such festivals in Hanzhou every year, and each time lasts at least half a month.Many foreigners came here specially to celebrate the festival together and feel the festive atmosphere of Hanzhou.

Different from festivals in prosperous places like the capital, the people of Hanzhou are simple and honest, and they are not afraid of strangers when they meet them, but they are very enthusiastic.

Especially seeing the two handsome young men, it made the older girls and the younger ladies turn red with jealousy.

The Hanzhou Flower Boat Festival, to put it bluntly, is just a chance for local lovers to date.

At the end of the moon, girls and boys who have a sweetheart will walk out of the house and board the painting boat parked on the shore of Pinghu Lake hand in hand.

These painting boats are divided into three, six, and nine grades. Those with a little power can take the most gorgeous boat. There are silk and bamboo singing and dancing, as well as delicious food and wine, but it is not the most suitable place for Master Tongxin to talk to each other.

Therefore, everyone generally only chooses the inferior painting boats, which are crude, but it is enough to have a private conversation with each other.

It only took Gu Zhuangcheng a day to find out the details of the festival. On the second night, he couldn't wait to drag the drowsy smoke out, and bought the best place on the shore very richly. ship!

Regarding this, Shen Yan had nothing to say.After all, it wasn't his money that was spent, and the landlord Gu was really rich. They were bored on the way to Hanzhou, and even counted their "family property" one by one.

At the end of the count, Gu Zhuangcheng foolishly held three sheets of rice paper full of writing, looked at Shen Yan with a bewildered expression, and asked him, "Why am I so rich all of a sudden?"

Shen Yan: "..."

Shen Yan didn't really want to answer his question, so she could only sip her tea in silence.Who let you have a butler who is very good at doing business?This answer was so hateful that even Shen Yan couldn't help being envious and jealous.

Although Jiuyanlou is an assassin organization, it actually has other businesses.Moreover, the base camp of Jiuyan Building is in Pingliu Mansion, where the sky is high and the emperor is far away, so there is not much money to spend, and the cost of running up and down is much less.

Unlike Yunzhuang Pavilion, which seems to be located in the most prosperous capital city, there is a lot of money sent to various yamen every year.

For this alone, the two are incomparable.

Fortunately, after Xie Qingming's death, Qingming Mountain became Shen Yan's private property.

There are a lot of treasures inside, and any one taken out is worth a fortune—even though Shen Yan never went back.

——So, it's just a painting boat, in Gu Zhuangcheng's opinion, it's really worthless.If Shen Yan didn't stop him, he might be able to buy the whole boat!

-

Hanzhou is not as prosperous as the capital, not as beautiful as Wuling, and not as rough as Youyun.It is located in an inconspicuous place in the Jiangnan water town, neither a place that must be passed by the official road, nor an important strategic competition.

It is just one of the thousands of inconspicuous towns, but it is only famous because of Immortal King Lin.

When he first arrived in Hanzhou, Gu Zhuangcheng acted cautiously, fearing that if he accidentally leaked his words, he would anger the people of Hanzhou by revealing the cause of Linxian King's death.

Not to mention whether he would kill himself, in short, he would definitely not be able to rent a boat so easily.

Shen Yan pursed her lips, watched him chatting with those people tremblingly, she hid behind him and smiled secretly, her eyebrows and eyes were so crooked that people couldn't lose their temper just looking at them.

Gu Zhuangcheng turned around, patted his head helplessly, and handed him a sweet-scented osmanthus that he just bought.

The rich sweet fragrance hit the nostrils, causing people to turn their faces away and sneezed several times in a row.

Now, it was Gu Zhuang's turn to snicker.Shen Yan rubbed the tip of her nose, grunted a little, glanced at the fresh sweet-scented osmanthus with dissatisfaction, then lowered her hand to take care of Zhuangcheng's fingertips sticking out of her cuff.

Covered by their wide sleeves, the two of them interlocked their fingers and walked slowly on the Qingshi alley in Hanzhou.

Gu Zhuangcheng's cautiousness didn't last long, because he discovered that the people of Hanzhou have distinct loves and hates.

Linxian King helped them get rid of the entanglement of water bandits, and they loved Linxian King, and the masters from Hanzhou were willing to work for Linxian King;

But when they learned that King Linxian colluded with evil cultivators and intended to rebel, the previous love and admiration would fall into the dust and be replaced by hatred and hatred.

Everyone knows what evil cultivation is, it is harmful!

Immortal King Lin became famous in a battle when he was young, and he could have been famous forever, but he couldn't guarantee it at the end of the year, and even the original supporters cursed him behind his back, so he could only be infamous for thousands of years.

For a moment, Gu Zhuangcheng didn't know what expression to show to face the people of Hanzhou.

Their moods changed too quickly, and he couldn't accept it, but there was no need to be too nervous.

Gu Zhuangcheng heaved a sigh of relief, and finally returned to his original state. He dragged Shen Yan to play around all day, and didn't board the boat until night.

The flower boat festival in Hanzhou usually lasts from dusk to midnight. After midnight, people on the boat get off the boat one after another, and go back to their homes to sleep.Only guests from other places will be made an exception to stay on board to rest.

When Gu Zhuangcheng came to Hanzhou, he booked the best inn, but he had never slept on a boat, so he was quite curious, so he dragged Shen Yan up to the second floor.

The second floor of the painting boat is where people live, but no matter how beautiful the boat is, there is only one room and one bed.In the small room on the second floor, there was not even room for an extra beauty couch.

Fortunately, the bed was big enough for two adult men to lie side by side, so there was no need to worry about who would be kicked out of bed if their sleeping position was not good in the middle of the night.

What's more, the people who live on the boat can't get up until noon the next day.

The moonlight is just right on this night, who can let the sweetheart sit in his arms without chaos in this situation?

Gu Zhuangcheng walked in first, looked around, and took out several porcelain vases from the hidden compartment at the head of the bed.

There is a transparent grease inside, and it goes without saying that it is used for it.He laughed uncontrollably and collapsed on the bed, clutching his stomach and rolling around.

Shen Yan couldn't get used to it, so she came over and wanted to pull him up, but he caught him off guard and brought him directly to the bed, almost crushing him to death.

As soon as the two of them went up and down, they traced each other's faces by the dim candlelight.Finally, with their lips touching, Shen Yan slowly closed her eyes.

In the end, they did nothing...

It's not that Gu Zhuangcheng doesn't want to, it's just that his Yan'er's expression of "I'll chop you off if you dare to do anything" is really cute and pitiful, like a kitten that is about to explode, making people want to hug him Apart from pampering her in her arms, she can't think of anything else.

Gu Zhuangcheng hugged his sweetheart, lying on the comfortable and soft big bed, and extinguished the candlelight.So the moonlight lifted the thin window screen and walked in quietly.

The eyes of both were bright, reflecting each other's face.They clasped hands, cried out another kiss irresistibly, and then fell asleep at the same time.
