Xianyang today is a little different.
Chen Xuan looked at the busy crowd below, but he couldn't see a single child.
Even Cheng Jiao'er, who had turned into an enlightened beast in the palace, was hidden well.
Since the morning of this day, no one had any smoke rising from a fire, and even in the palace, they were eating... zongzi?
Chen Xuan looked at the food in Ying Zheng's hand, his mouth twitching as he asked, "What is this...?"
Ying Zheng was stunned at first, but then he was happy. He had finally caught something that Chen Xuan was curious about, so naturally he wanted to show it off.
"You don't even know this? This is zongzi, something we eat during the Zhengyang Festival."
"Of course I know this is a zongzi, but... do you know Qu Yuan?"
Chen Xuan thought about it and felt that there was no need for the Qin State to commemorate a Chu State official, but why would the Dragon Boat Festival food appear here?
"Mi Ping? I've heard of him. Why are you mentioning him? Let me tell you, these zongzi are delicious..."
Ying Zheng paused for a moment and then began to speak.
Chen Xuan twitched his lips. It took him a while to remember who Mi Ping was. However, he was still a little confused and asked:
"Why don't you see any children coming out today?"
Ying Zheng finally stopped his chatter and said with a smile, "Today there is an evil moon overhead, so those people hid the child to prevent him from being found by the evil moon and having his soul destroyed."
"Isn't this Zhengyang Festival? How does it have anything to do with the evil month?"
Chen Xuan asked.
"Is this Zhengyang Festival a tradition of the Great Qin?"
"It's not just a Qin Dynasty tradition. This is the tradition of the entire Chinese nation. As long as it inherits the Zhou Dynasty canon, who doesn't have this festival?"
Ying Zheng raised his eyes, full of disdain.
In memory of "Chen Xuan, aren't you too behind?
"Isn't it really to commemorate Mi Ping?"
Chen Xuan still didn't believe it and asked again.
Ying Zheng just grinned and was unwilling to answer, and went about handling government affairs on his own.
Seeing that Ying Zheng was unwilling to pay attention to him, Chen Xuan did not get angry. He just lay on the eaves of the palace and watched the lively scene in Xianyang City.
Many of the customs here are somewhat similar to those in his previous life, but also somewhat different. This is his only connection with that era.
Chen Xuan sighed again, not knowing what he was thinking.
The hustle and bustle in Xianyang City is different from that in Xianyang Palace.
The noise in Xianyang Palace was always a bit depressing, but in Xianyang City, it was quite lively.
Not to mention the dragon boat races on the Wei River outside the city, even the parades on some streets in the city are not as lively as them.
The Dragon Boat Festival is as important as the Spring Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival, so there are not many concerns and rules.
Ying Zheng even personally issued an order: "No ban today."
"Zheng boy, is this the world you want?"
Chen Xuan watched the hustle and bustle of the city, which continued until night.
For this group of simple people, as long as they can have food to eat, there is peace. Emperor Ying Zheng not only lets them have food to eat, but also makes them full, which is more than just peace.
"This is the world I want."
Ying Zheng replied with a smile.
“This is the peace I want.”

PS
I originally didn't plan to write it just because of the investment.
The most important thing is that I don’t want to disappoint a group of big guys.
I can't find a place to finish the things, otherwise it would have been finished long ago. I can't help but shrug.
Finally, let’s talk about the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival.
The Dragon Boat Festival, also known as the Duanyang Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Tianzhong Festival, etc., originated from the worship of natural celestial phenomena and evolved from the dragon worship in ancient times.
I’m actually not very satisfied with the writing of this book, but that’s all I can do, sorry.
