Two days later, it was the annual Peach Blossom Festival in Shengjing.
In the midst of Luoyue Bridge, light boats shuttled back and forth like shuttles. On both sides of the riverbank, smoke-willow trees were heavily clustered. Following the riverbank for about six or seven miles, there was a small lake with a pavilion in its heart. Around the pavilion, three or two small boats were moored, which were the elegant scholars gathered here for pleasure during the Peach Blossom Festival.
This place was serene, surrounded by the lake on all sides, with a grand view of the riverbank upon lifting one's gaze and the moving sight of peach blossoms in the distance. Literary men and scholars favored this spot the most, gathering each year at the heart of the lake during the Peach Blossom Festival to compile several collections of poetry and literary selections.
This year was no different.
