King’s Landing: The Proud Empress

  Chapter 84 Slave (2)

  Bibo Lake is located in the southwest of the capital, covering an area of ​​about several thousand acres. The lake is clear, and there are groups of fish, shrimp and crabs. There are endless lotus flowers covering thousands of acres of lake. If the boat travels in it, it will be covered by the green lotus and lotus all over the sky, making it impossible for people to find it.

  Although there are people in Bibo Lake on weekdays, there are not many people, at most there are only twenty or so boats. When I was young, there were even only a few ships.

  However, the wind came from nowhere today, and hundreds of people were blown here. Together, it was seventy or eighty boats. This made those boat owners so happy that they counted their money until they were soft-hearted. After a wave of people swims and is sent ashore, another wave of people will be ushered in. There are even countless people on the shore looking forward to it, and there is no boat to take.

   The reason why there are so many people today is of course a certain beautiful woman.

  Originally after Junli and the others boarded the boat, a large number of men came, vying to rent a boat. They had to ask the boatman to row behind Junli and the others, and some of them even fought for the boat.

   And so many men who are rare to see on weekdays actually appeared today, which naturally made the women along the way very excited. So behind a large group of men, followed by a large group of women.

  Seeing the men scrambling to get on the boat, and even a few normally reserved men fighting for the purpose of renting a boat, how could this not make the women puzzled. So apart from the men, there was also a large group of women who rented boats one after another and headed towards the mighty "fleet" ahead.

  It's a pity that they didn't arrive until Junli and the others had already left by boat because of the snatching of the boat. So even if there is a boat in the end, I can only stare angrily at the endless green lotus and lotus, and stare at the people around me.

  Of course, some men asked the boatman to row into the lake, trying to meet the lady in the ink-colored clothes by chance.

   Some of the men who did not grab the boat were unwilling to leave, so they waited directly on the shore. They didn't believe it anymore, that lady would not come out.

  But what they didn't expect was that Junli really didn't come out, so these men waited by the lake for a whole afternoon.

   Junli and the others were boating among the green and pink lotuses in the sky, admiring the beautiful scenery.

   One pot of turbid wine, six plates of snacks, twenty sheets of rice paper, two copies of pen, ink and inkstone.

  Several people sat around the small table, enjoying the scenery while drinking and eating snacks. It can be described as a great joy in life!

   "I didn't expect the capital to have such a scenery. It's not an exaggeration to be a fairyland on earth!" Liu Yuan sighed.

  Bai Heng nodded lightly at the side, and Mo Kuang miraculously stopped being interested in the food on the table. Instead, like everyone else, he looked at the surrounding green lotuses covering the boats, his eyes were full of interest.

  Junli was also pleasantly surprised, it was the first time she saw such a scene. In modern times, although there are green lotus and lotus in some lakes, they are not as diverse as here, and the height is not half as high as here. Even the lake is not as endless as here.

  Seeing that everyone, including Han Ye, was in a good mood, Bai Heng couldn't help laughing and said, "Why don't we compose a poem and use the scenery right now as the topic?"

  Han Ye was the first to answer, "Okay."

  After Han Ye, several people all agreed to this proposal, only when it came to Mo Kuang...

   "Uh, it's better for you to recite poems and make right, I won't participate." Mo Kuang rubbed his head embarrassedly.

   Several people froze for a moment, and then realized. Patted his forehead. How could they forget that Mo Kuang can't write!

   "Hey, why don't you go and write poems, and I'll be in charge of eating." Mo Kuang blushed slightly.

  The corners of their mouths twitched at the same time, and they nodded in acquiescence.

  If you want to write poetry, you must have a sequence. Bai Heng said, "Why don't Ms. Mu come first?" After speaking, he turned to look at Junli Liuyuan and Han Ye.

  Liu Yuan was the first to speak, "Miss Mu is so talented, she should come first. It's also good for us to learn more."

   Han Ye naturally had no objection to this.

   Jun Li lowered his eyes, did not say no, but nodded slowly. It would be hypocritical to refuse at this time.

  Looking at the surrounding scenery, he said directly without thinking, "After all, the blue waves in June, the scenery is not the same as that of the four seasons, the lotus leaves are boundless blue in the sky, and the lotus flowers are red in the sun."

   Several people were stunned at the same time, but Han Ye was the first to react, picked up the pen, ink, paper and inkstone beside him, and wrote down the poem.

   After a while, Liu Yuan and Bai Heng came to their senses, and said with admiration, "Miss Mu is a talented writer. I wonder if she will participate in the scientific examination this year?"

  Hearing this, Jun Li was stunned, seeing several people all looking at him. Jun Li smiled lightly, "I will go to the examination room."

   Several people heard the words, with different expressions in their eyes. And Mo Kuang said pleasantly, "Miss Mu, if you go to take the scientific examination, you must be the champion."

   After saying that, Jun Li shook his head, "I won't take part in the scientific examination."

   Several people were stunned at the same time and did not participate in the scientific examination, so why did they say they were going to the examination room just now? Isn't going to the examination room just to participate in the scientific examination?

   "You will know when the time comes."

   Several people wanted to ask more questions, but seeing Junli's face unwilling to explain, they had to suppress their doubts. Wait until the day of the scientific examination.

  Because of this matter, there was silence among the few for a while, and then they continued to take turns reciting poems and composing to each other.

   It's just that there are doubts in my heart, and the surrounding atmosphere is not as harmonious as it was at the beginning. Even Mo Kuang, who was eating extravagantly, was affected by this subtle atmosphere, and put down the snack in his hand embarrassingly.

  Because everyone had their own concerns, this lake tour ended soon. Junli told the boatman to go straight ahead and disembark on the opposite shore, so he didn't have to go back the same way.

   Soon, the boat drew to the shore. After Junli and the others got ashore, they walked slowly forward.

  Walking to a busy city, I saw countless people hurrying by, clutching something in their arms tightly, looking at the passers-by with a little vigilance in their eyes.

   And there are quite a few people like this. As time goes by, more and more people like this are walking towards the east at a fast pace.

  Of course, occasionally there are one or two accidents.

  For example, a woman in a fancy dress with a group of thugs behind her is holding a purse in her hand and swaggering across the street from the street.

  Junli and the others were puzzled, why are they going east?

  Mo Kuang grabbed a passing middle-aged woman and asked curiously, "My aunt, where are you all going?"

The middle-aged woman first glanced at a few people defensively, and then said mysteriously, "Aren't you from the capital?" After speaking, she continued, "Today is the day for slaves in the slave market. It is said that how many people are there today? A very nice looking slave."

Blinking ambiguously at a few people, the middle-aged woman looked at the sky and exclaimed, "Oh, it's about to start, I'm leaving first. The ladies can go and have a look if they need it." It's already gone.

   Several people looked at each other with astonishment on their faces. slave?
