Liu Shian has not read An Mansion well these two days. When he walked to the bookstore, he was shocked to realize the glory here. To describe it in two words, the two words "Space and Wealth" are the best. After leaving the small house where he lives, he walked through three open corridors to the Mengyun Lake that Linglan mentioned.

At this time, the spring sunshine began to rise, and there was a willow to support the shore. The plants and flowers on the lake were green. In addition, the ripples in the lake were slightly rippling. The sounds of birds and birds came out from the clouds, making the spring scenery in March. The servants who were busy and busy also made the spring even more disturbing.

Liu Shi secretly walked around Mengyun Lake and passed through several pavilions. He also saw more spring scenery. The spring weather in Dongzhou is very similar to his hometown Huzhou, but it is not wet.

Liu Shi said in his heart: "It is reasonable to have this spring in the land at the extreme east of the country. This place in Dongzhou is even more than the scenery in Jiangnan in Jinling, Lin'an and other places."

I thought to myself that I had already walked to the high building. In front of the Anfu Bookstore, some maids were taking out some calligraphy and paintings from the study room, spreading them on the clean floor in front of the building, and white paper made the front of the bookstore snow-white.

Liu Shi secretly saw An Yue holding a booklet next to him, as if recording something. He walked up to him, said hello, and asked, "It's morning, Fairy An."

An Yue also replied with a greeting and yawned. It was obvious that she had not had a good sleep yesterday. She said again: "I'm afraid I don't have time to go out with Mr. Liu today. There is a spring flower viewing party at home to be held, so I need some help."

Liu Shi nodded secretly and said, "I heard Ling Lan say that, so I came here to see what I could help. I used to accompany my father to attend a flower viewing party for the prefectures and counties. I also know a lot about all kinds of things."

An Yue listened and said, "There are flowers in the house every spring. According to the practice of previous years, you should just choose twenty paintings of spring flowers. You should not choose paintings for other seasons. But this year, I don't know what to do."

Liu Shi secretly heard this and asked again the reason, which was roughly clear.

It turns out that in previous years, the flower appreciation was some of An Mingjing's friends and some high-ranking officials. They didn't care much about the form of flower appreciation. Some pictures were hung outside, which only added some atmosphere of flower appreciation. However, this year it was a little different because An Mingjing spent some methods and means to understand the governor. With the help of the governor, An Mingjing invited the Eighth Prince.

Although the Eighth Prince is a prince of decline, he is also a prince. An Mingjing naturally needs to take care of all aspects, so he also needs to take good care of the Eighth Prince's flower appreciation habits. What's more, the Eighth Prince likes to read flower paintings, so the An Mansion's flower appreciation this spring needs to prepare the paintings that the Eighth Prince likes. Such a change will immediately stump An Yue, because they don't know much about what paintings the Eighth Prince likes. The Eighth Prince likes to appreciate paintings and appreciate paintings, let alone what flower paintings this arrogant prince likes to read.

Liu Shi listened inwardly and said, "In short, it is how to cater to the preferences of the eighth prince. The choice of painting, wine, and even the choice of dishes require repeated consideration. What I said is right?"

An Yue nodded and said, "That's the reason. At the beginning of this year, a batch of new paintings were just introduced at home, all of which were famous artists. There were also many of them about flower works, which were the paintings in front of me, but I don't know which one to choose."

Liu Shi took a secret look and saw that the paintings covered in front of the book building were all large-scale. The conception, description, outline of the paintings were all unique, and some descriptive words and the seals showed the unusualness of these paintings. Moreover, these paintings were placed outside, so they were really not afraid of the rain and spring breeze being ruined. Liu Shi secretly thought that maybe this was the case with wealthy people.

The spring flowers drawn in the painting are nothing more than daffodils, magnolias, spring plums, peonies, lilacs, peaches, peach blossoms, etc. They are all famous flowers, and they all seem to have vitality in the paintings.

Liu Shi said secretly: "It seems that all the flowers you find in these paintings are found. So what kind of flowers are there in Anfu?"

An Yue said: "The climate here in Dongzhou is very suitable for flower growth. Although it is cold in winter, spring is also warm. Because flower viewing banquets are held in the mansion every year, all kinds of flower species are tried to be planted. There are many flower species in the garden, which are planted by gardeners themselves. The flowers you saw in the theater last night were just the tip of some icebergs."

Liu Shi nodded secretly and said, "I'm very curious."

An Yue said: "Now many flowers are in bud. On the day of the flower viewing feast, you can see the beauty and the flowers blooming."

Liu Shi secretly replied: "I'm looking forward to it. Since there are many kinds of flowers in the mansion, you don't have to consider whether there are such flowers in the mansion. I have a note. You might as well choose magnolia and spring plum in the paintings that set off the paintings."

An Yue was puzzled and said, "Although the Eighth Prince was born rich and noble, he was the royal noble, he should have liked the elegance and luxury of peonies. But I heard that the Eighth Prince was arrogant and a quirky person. Such a cold and lofty person is probably the main person who uses peonies as his eyes."

Liu Shi said secretly: "If I told you that the Eighth Prince likes autumn chrysanthemums and osmanthus, then choosing these autumn paintings is not in line with this Spring Flower Award. Therefore, it is better to choose peonies that represent the identity of the painter. This can not only express the respect of the Anfu for the royal family, but also set off the identity of the Eighth Prince. Why not do it?"

Seeing An Yue thinking secretly, Liu Shi continued, "And let me tell you, I came from Yunting and heard that the Eighth Prince actually likes Mudan very much, but he is proud in his heart and doesn't want to show it."

If Liu Shian said that it was Princess Chengping and herself about the Eighth Prince, An Yue naturally didn't believe it, so she might as well listen to it in Yunting. Moreover, the Eighth Prince was really quirky. She liked the glory of peonies, the quality of spring plums and autumn chrysanthemums, the quietness of magnolias, and the faint fragrance of osmanthus. These five kinds of flowers are all loved by the Eighth Prince.

An Yue also felt something reasonable and said, "What you said is something. You go with me to meet my father in the evening. You talk to my father. If my father agrees, then follow your method."

After An Yue finished speaking, she ticked the names of some peony, magnolia and spring plum paintings in the booklet, and then handed the booklet to a servant and ordered them to select all the drawings.

After An Yue finished all this, she spoke, "I seem to think you understand this Eighth Prince very much. You knew each other before?"

Liu Shi smiled secretly and said, "How can I know the Eighth Prince? It's just rumors."

After hearing this, An Yue stopped asking and started to be busy. Liu Shian also joined in and did not explain in detail.
