Chapter 873: The Legend of Provence (Page 1/1)

Provence, located in the southeast of France, is a Côte d'Azur bordering the Mediterranean, home to lavender. The region produces excellent wines. Provence is a "city of knights" and the birthplace of medieval chivalric romances, with famous towns such as Marseille and Aix.

It also borders Italy and is a hilly area that stretches from the Mediterranean coast to the interior. In the middle there is a large river that flows through it. The Rhône, which flows south from the Alps through Lyon, divides into two major tributaries near Provence and then empties into the Mediterranean.

Historically, the geographical extent of Provence varied greatly, and during the Roman period, the province of Provence stretched from the Alps in the north to the Pyrenees in the south, including the whole of southern France. During the Roman Empire, Provence was included as its province.

At the end of the 18th century, during the Revolution, France was divided into 5 different administrative departments, and Provence was one of them.

In the 60s of the 20th century, the administrative provinces were reorganized into 22 regions, and the Provence Alpes region was born. In the vicinity of the mild-mannered university city of Aix, the papal city of Avignon, there are also medieval villages and ancient mountain towns that have escaped the centuries.

The King Hotel in Hone in Zhang Nan's mouth is located in Aix, which is also one of the most exclusive hotels in the ancient city of Aix, and it happened that the hotel was also booked in Suqian.

"Husband, we're going to Provence, right?" Cui Yue asked curiously.

"Yes, you know?" Zhang Nan also asked a little strangely, it stands to reason that it shouldn't be, how can Cui Yue know about Provence?

"I know." Cui Yue smiled and winked at Zhang Nan.

"Where did you know?" Seeing Cui Yue's playful appearance, Zhang Nan also touched Cui Yue's face dotingly. As soon as Zhang Nan made this small action, Zhang Nan suddenly felt a wave of mangs on his back.

Zhang Nan could only Shi Shiran turned his head and said, "Touch everything, touch it when you get off the plane." ”

Hearing Zhang Nan say this, all the women's hearts were exposed, so they were all embarrassed not to overdo it.

"Hey." Su Qian looked at the blatant dog abuse in front of him and had nothing to say, although Su Qian's age is not too old, but he is not young, but he has never met a suitable Ruyi Langjun, and finally came out for a trip, and he had to accept the blatant dog abuse of Zhang Nan and his four wives.

"I watch a TV series." Cui Yue said with a smile.

"But you don't know where you watch TV, there's an interesting legend." Zhang Nan saw that it was time for him to show off his knowledge again, and he also stood up as a matter of course.

"Legends? What legend? ”

"I want to know."

"Of course I want to know." Cui Yue nodded.

"Kiss one." After Zhang Nan finished speaking, he shamelessly put his big face to Cui Yue's mouth.

"Eh, you two are going too far." Although other women didn't dare to say anything, Su Qian was different, and Su Qian, a single dog, also expressed his dissatisfaction with this blatant dog abuse.

"That's it, hurry up." When Cui Yue heard Su Qian say this, she was also embarrassed to push Zhang Nan's big face a little farther away.

Zhang Nan saw that the kiss could not be achieved, and his expression of loss was overflowing.

"Okay, let's talk about it." Although disappointed, Zhang Nan still told the legend he saw from the Internet.

"There was a beautiful girl in ancient Provence, one day, alone in a cold valley picking budding flowers, on the way home, she met a wounded traveler from afar who asked her for directions. The girl held a bouquet full of flowers, and looked at the handsome young man affectionately, and at that moment, her heart was occupied by the young man's enthusiastic and unrestrained smile. Despite the opposition of her family, the young girl insisted that the young man stay in the guest room of her home to heal until he recovered. As the days passed, the young man's leg injury had healed, and the relationship between the two heated up rapidly. ”

Zhang Nan spoke very seriously, and the girls listened very seriously, even Su Qian listened seriously, although it was not the first time she went to France, but it was the first time she had heard the legend of Provence.

"On a cool morning, the young man wanted to say goodbye and leave, but the girl did not want the opposition of her family to go away with the youth, to the hometown of the young man full of roses... The old grandmother in the village held a handful of newly blooming lavender bouquets before the girl left, and let the infatuated girl use this newly-blooming lavender bouquet to test the sincerity of the young man... It is said that the scent of a lavender bouquet will make unclean things visible... It was the morning when the lavender bloomed in that valley, and just as the young man took the girl's hand and prepared to go away, the girl threw a bouquet of lavender hidden in her coat on the young man's body, and just like that, a purple light smoke gathered and dispersed. ”

Zhang Nan said this, deliberately paused, and then rang the bell to ask the flight attendant to give him a glass of white water. Zhang Nan's deliberate behavior of dragging the rhythm was also criticized by the women.

"And then?" Cui Yue asked impatiently.

"yes, what about later?" Li Lizhi also asked.

"Hurry up, talk quickly." Since he and Zhang Nan became husband and wife, Jin Shengman has been even more open in front of Zhang Nan.

Seeing the anxious looks of the women, Zhang Nan felt amused, but soon Zhang Nan couldn't laugh.

"Hey, why did you bite me?" Zhang Nan looked at the watch that was bitten out by Cui Yue on the back of his hand.

"Tell me quickly, if I don't talk about it, I'll bite you." Cui Yue said, waving his little fist. For his wife's coquettish offensive, Zhang Nan is also defenseless.

"In the valley, you can faintly hear the cold wind blowing, like a young man whispering... I'm the heart you want to travel... Leaving the lonely figure of the girl alone and melancholy... Not long after, the girl was nowhere to be seen, some people said that she followed the fragrance of flowers to find the youth, and some people said that she was also transformed into a brigade of light smoke by the youth and disappeared into the valley...... Okay, that's the end of the story, thanks for listening. After Zhang Nan finished speaking, he picked up the white water placed next to him and drank it.

"That lavender must be beautiful." After listening to this story, Li Chengxia also showed a yearning look, women have romantic ideals, it is obvious that Zhang Nan's story hit the hearts of all women.

"Of course it's beautiful, but now it's just an imagination for you, and when you get to your destination, you will know how beautiful that place is."

Although Zhang Nan has only seen large fields of lavender flowers on the Internet, and most of them are promotional photos of tourism, all of which are retouched pictures. But as a world-class tourist attraction, Zhang Nan thinks it shouldn't be bad.
