"The first Peony Fair in Luoyang!"
The next day, Luoyang City was directly covered with notices to prepare for the Peony Fair, encouraging the people of the whole city to actively participate and detonate the whole city in an instant.
You should know that peonies are the pride of Luoyang. Most rich and noble families widely plant peonies. Some flower lovers even have their own private peony gardens, and even some rare varieties are expensive. Once they appear on the market, they immediately cause people to rush.
Even ordinary people also plant some to decorate their own courtyard. However, no one thought that their common peonies would form a Peony Fair.
"The place is actually the peony garden in the west of Luoyang! Isn't it prepared by the Mohists for Princess Changle? How can it be the place of the Peony Fair?" a Luoyang citizen looked at the notice and wondered.
"It's said that this Peony Fair is the mojiazi's honeymoon trip for Princess Changle. Otherwise, how can it spend ten thousand dollars to offer a reward for the precious peony." a merchant looked at the reward on the notice and said with envy that a precious peony that does not exist in the peony garden can be sold for ten thousand dollars, which seems to the merchant that there is no such cost-effective business anymore.
"Mozi is really infatuated!"
"Princess Changle is so happy."
Everyone is jealous. The honeymoon trip is unheard of by everyone. Once it has been spread, it has been envied by everyone. However, just when mojiazi arrived in Luoyang City, he wanted to collect Luoyang Peony treasures for Princess Changle to enjoy. What a romance.
"Naer and others are mistaken. The Mohist school is not only for Princess Changle to enjoy, but for the citizens of Luoyang to enjoy the peony garden. I have just returned from the peony garden, and the Mohist children are tearing down the wall of the peony garden and rebuilding it. The citizens will be allowed to enter and enjoy it freely at the Peony Fair," said an idle man.
"Seriously? That's Hu daonong's peony garden. I heard there are many peony treasures in it." everyone was excited.
Hu daonong's peony garden is famous in Luoyang. In the past, ordinary people didn't have the opportunity to visit it, but they didn't expect to open it to the public for free.
"By the way, my family also has peonies handed down by our ancestors. If there is no variety in the peony garden, it is not worth ten thousand dollars." suddenly someone said excitedly.
Suddenly, many people were moved. The reward was quick and slow. If the varieties that did not exist in the peony garden were robbed and sent first, wouldn't it be empty for later people to draw water with bamboo baskets.
For a while, many people took action and began to offer precious peonies to the peony garden. From time to time, the news that one or two lucky people got a reward immediately attracted more people to offer flowers to the peony garden. Even if the offered peonies are not the treasures of the peony garden, as long as they are good, they will also give a lot of reward.
"What's worth ten thousand dollars? I'm still interested in the selection of the peony king. I heard that the peony that won the final prize will also receive the certificate issued by the county government. This is the real business opportunity." many people are moved and are very interested in the idea of the peony King.
With the active participation of Luoyang citizens, there are more and more varieties of peony gardens, the scale of Peony Fair is becoming larger and larger, and its influence has spread all over the streets. Moreover, with the passage of time, the news of Luoyang holding Peony Fair has spread rapidly in all directions.
Many humanists and poets have heard the wind and come to Luoyang City one after another. Especially after the news reaches Chang'an City, the every move of Merton and Princess Changle will attract the attention of Chang'an people.
Now the news that mojiazi held Luoyang Flower Fair for Princess Changle spread, and it immediately spread in Chang'an city. Suddenly, many Chang'an citizens were moved and immediately rushed to Luoyang City by carriage. There were things similar to ink technology exhibition and new year's Eve Lantern Festival, but this time the people of Chang'an city rushed to Luoyang City.
On the streets of Chang'an City, Su Luosheng looked at the streets that had just been afforested with satisfaction. Now he completely imitated the layout of Mojia village. Sure enough, Chang'an city was completely new after afforesting. In this way, his political achievements can be heavily added.
"My Lord, marquis Mo held a peony party for Princess Changle in Luoyang." suddenly, Constable Cao came to report.
After hearing the report from Constable Cao, Su Luosheng couldn't help sighing, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Lord Zhou is really lucky!"
Originally, he had pressed Zhou Hongde down, but he didn't expect that Merton's honeymoon trip suddenly gave Zhou Hongde a chance to breathe. This time, their struggle for promotion fell into a stalemate again.
In the palace, Li Shimin looked at the idea of Luoyang Peony Fair sent by Zhou Hongde and said with a bitter smile: "Merton is really not worried. He is not peaceful everywhere."
However, from Li Shimin's perspective, we can naturally see the benefits of the Peony Fair. Peony is a specialty of Luoyang. After cultivation, it only needs to be taken care of regularly. The maintenance cost is very low, but it is a huge profit compared with the income.
"This is the so-called talent for governing the village!" Li Shimin sighed. If all officials have such talent for governing the village, he doesn't have to worry too much.
In the imperial garden of the rear palace, there are hundreds of flowers competing for beauty. It is a rare beauty in the world. Imperial concubines of the rear palace come in an endless stream. They fought openly and secretly, but on the surface, there was harmony.
However, when the news came that Merton held a peony party for Princess Changle in Luoyang, the concubines were silent, and they were a little less interested to see these flowers.
"Sister Chong Hua, are the peonies in Luoyang really so beautiful?" imperial concubine Yang turned to Zheng Chong Hua.
"Sister Hui Yang, the peony is magnificent, dignified and national. It is the king of flowers. Every year when the peonies in Luoyang bloom, the whole city smells fragrant. Even ordinary families put them out for good luck." Zheng Chonghua can't help but miss Tao and think of the carefree feeling of wandering Peony flowers when she was a girl. Compared with the intrigues in the palace now, It's a pity that the peony in Luoyang is better than in the past, and she can't go back.
"What my sister said is true. I once lived in Luoyang, where the peonies are really the most beautiful." Princess Wei agreed with Zheng Chonghua once.
"So, Changle is really lucky!" Yang Fei smiled.
The concubines nodded one after another. As for what they thought, we don't know.
With the spread of the news, especially Luoyang directly advertised in ink and Confucian journals, Luoyang Peony will stir up the world for a while, and countless flower lovers rushed to Luoyang City.
For a while, Luoyang City met with the wind and cloud, and became the focus of the world at one fell swoop.
