Chapter 51: The Meaning of Wanlinghua



Lin Zan lifted the curtain and looked out, and she couldn't wait to jump off the carriage. Fortunately, Jun Beiqi was quick enough to catch her.

"You are so reckless. Aren't you afraid of getting lost?" Jun Beiqi scolded him lightly, but he still got off the carriage first and then carried Lin Zhan down.

Lin Zan ran forward happily with her short legs. This time, Jun Beiqi did not restrain her, but followed her closely.

The streets were bustling with all kinds of small commodities on display, and Lin Zhan also saw flower strings made of small white and pink flowers on many stalls.

Moreover, the vendors were surrounded by young women, who were buying the flower strings with sweet smiles on their faces.

When Lin Zan saw this scene, he tilted his head curiously and turned to ask what the use of these flower strings was.

However, he did not expect that when he looked back, he found that Jun Beiqi was being secretly stared at by some young women, and some bold women even held flower necklaces in their hands, wanting to give them to Jun Beiqi.

"Sure enough, as long as the young man is handsome, the girl will come to him like a butterfly." Lin Zhan covered his mouth and laughed secretly, then his expression froze as if he remembered something.

Wait a minute, why does this scene look so much like the annual Goddess Festival described in the book?

The Northern Qi Dynasty had a very special festival in a year, called the Goddess Festival. On this day, girls of marriageable age would go to the streets to buy bouquets of Wanling flowers.

If a woman meets a man she likes on the street, she will give him a necklace of Wanling flowers to express her love.

Combining the current scene and the situation where Jun Beiqi was surrounded, Lin Zan was already 80% certain that it was most likely the Goddess Festival.

Thinking of this, Lin Zhan hurriedly trotted back, then put her little hand in front of Jun Beiqi, and said in a childish voice to the women who wanted to send wreaths, "This famous grass has an owner, please do not pick it."

When many women saw a cute little baby suddenly standing in front of them, they were stunned for a moment, and then they all giggled at the same time.

"Whose little girl is this? She looks like she's barely grown up yet, could it be that she's already in love and wants to go out and find her ideal husband?"

"This little girl is too tender. You should go home and grow up. Let me take care of this tender young man, okay?"

A petite girl with a rosy complexion squatted down and coaxed Lin Zan to move aside like she was coaxing a child.

Lin Zhan looked at them angrily. These women in front of him were all pretty skeletons, and the prince's enthronement mission was not yet completed. He must not divert his attention to these women.

As the saying goes, a good entrepreneur should never let a woman hold him back from moving forward.

Jun Beiqi looked down at Lin Zan who was standing in front of him with great interest, and was also very interested in the thoughts in her mind.

"Go away quickly, or I'm going to bite you." Lin Zhan was a little angry. He stomped his feet, showing his white teeth and pretending to be ferocious.

But this look made all the girls laugh. They didn't take Lin Zhan seriously at all.

Just when Lin Zan thought that Jun Beiqi was about to be killed by these women's teasing, Jun Beiqi, with a cold face, directly picked up Lin Zan who was standing in front of him.

"Get out of the way, anyone who blocks my way will die!" Jun Beiqi said in a cold voice, his cold eyes looking forward.

Hearing his words, the women were stunned for a moment, and then they started to giggle. "Is this young man shy? Today is the Goddess Festival. If he is shy, he should not go out on the street."

"That's right, sir, don't be shy. No matter which sister you choose among us, we will send you our blessings and will never cause any trouble."

It is a rare opportunity for the women around to express their feelings so boldly, and they are even more unrestrained than ordinary men.

Some women even wanted Jun Beiqi to touch them directly in order to show off their beautiful figures and looks.

Even Lin Zan in Jun Beiqi's arms was stunned. This was a real large-scale courtship scene in ancient times. It was extremely exciting.

At this moment, a team of guards suddenly appeared on Changyan Street and came directly to Jun Beiqi's side, isolating him from those women who were posing coquettishly.

"Your Highness, I am late." The leader was very respectful to Jun Beiqi.

When the women around heard that Jun Beiqi was the crown prince, they were so frightened that they trembled like a sieve and quickly knelt down. What had they done just now to dare to seduce the crown prince?

But then she thought that if the prince really fell in love with them, then they would be able to rise to the top and become phoenixes.

With such thoughts in mind, the women boldly raised their heads and looked at Jun Beiqi with flirtatious glances.

Lin Zan was in Jun Beiqi's arms and couldn't help but be amazed. It was true that in front of beauty, both men and women would risk their lives.

With the addition of those guards, a five-meter vacuum zone was formed around Jun Beiqi and Lin Zan, and no one dared to approach.

Looking at the awed looks cast at him by the people around him, Lin Zhan found them meaningless and could not help but curl his lips.

At this moment, Jun Beiqi seemed to understand Lin Zhan's thoughts and took her directly into the theater next door. However, before leaving, Lin Zhan also bought a string of Wanling flowers at the stall next door.

Jun Beiqi frowned as he looked at the flower necklace on Lin Zhan's wrist. Lin Zhan was afraid that he might misunderstand, so he quickly explained, "Prince, please don't misunderstand me. I just bought this flower necklace because it looks pretty."

"That's better." Jun Beiqi looked at her flower necklace for a few more times, then looked at the stage in front of him with an expressionless face.

In order to avoid causing further trouble, before entering the theater, Jun Beiqi asked the guards to stand guard outside and not allow anyone to enter.

Lin Zan became interested in the drama on the stage, because today was the Goddess Festival, so the play was about the goddess marrying a husband.

Legend has it that a long time ago, a goddess came down to earth and met an elegant scholar. The two fell in love, so the goddess stayed in the mortal world and gave birth to children for him.

Today is the day when the goddess descended to earth in the legend, and it is also the origin of the Goddess Festival. Every year on this day, all major theaters will perform this drama.

Just when Lin Zan was watching with great interest, something annoying came. Si Xueyi, wearing a Luoshen robe, although still young, came to Jun Beiqi with a graceful figure and beautiful appearance.

"I never thought I could see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince here." Si Xueyi did not conceal the joy on her face. Her rosy cheeks were filled with the girl's shyness, which was worth more than a thousand words.
