The owner of Sanbai Waterside Pavilion, Madam Sanbai, was the most cultured senior in the capital. It was said that she and her husband met at a Qixi Lantern Festival many years ago. Since then, they had no doubts about each other and protected each other for fifty years. It became a story that everyone in the capital praised. And every year, the lantern contest held by Sanbai Waterside Pavilion became the magpie bridge in the hearts of countless budding young men. They only hoped that when they met in the golden wind and the jade dew, they would surpass the countless people in the world.
"Wow, so beautiful!"
When they arrived at Sanbai Waterside Pavilion, they saw that it was already dark inside. Thousands of lanterns set off the waterside pavilion as if it was a paradise. The warm crimson light shone through the glass and fell on the white cheeks of the young girls. It was like the sunset had dyed the clouds, causing a wave of exclamations.
Tonight, the entire capital was in a dream.
The lantern contest had already begun. Hundreds of young girls carried the dreams in their hearts as they took turns to display the lanterns in their hands. Ji 'er was held in the arms of a servant and was very happy to watch. Ning Shu was distracted to take care of him while her eyes unconsciously searched the crowd.
Ji 'er turned around and saw that she was distracted. He said crisply, "Jiejie, jiejie, are you looking for someone? Why aren't you looking at the lanterns? "
Ning Shu came back to her senses and said with a lonely smile, "Jiejie was just distracted. Which lantern does Ji 'er like, jiejie will look with you." Ning Shu took Ji 'er into her arms. She heard Forsythia suddenly stand on her tiptoes and say, "Who is that? He seems a bit familiar."
Ning Shu subconsciously looked back. Who else could it be but She Yan with wheat-colored skin who squeezed through the crowd? Her eyes lit up and She Yan also saw them. He showed a bright smile and waved his hand to squeeze over. He didn't have time to greet Ning Shu and consciously squeezed to Zi Gui's side, looking at her with a silly smile.
Zi Gui's ears were slightly hot. He hurriedly glared at him and signaled for him to be serious. She Yan came back to his senses and embarrassedly scratched his head as he greeted Ning Shu.
Forsythia was simply a worm in her family's young miss's stomach. She looked left and right, "Why did you come alone? Where's your family's shizi? We've been looking for him here for two hours. "
"Ah, it's like this. The Heir Apparent was originally going to come, but he was summoned to the palace by His Majesty at the last minute. He was really busy, so he specially sent me here to apologize to Miss Ning. I've been looking for you in the East Market for a long time, but there are too many people here, so I only found you now. Miss Ning, I'm sorry. My family's heir really didn't do it on purpose. Please don't be angry. "
Ning Shu smiled. Although she said there was no harm, the light in her eyes was extinguished. Immediately after, she began to worry. After the chaos in the Palace that day, the situation in the Palace was very unclear. Empress Cao had surfaced with the Plum Blossom Kiss. The Emperor's own safety was uncertain. Yesterday, the Palace had sent out news that Yin Zhaoyi was unwell. Now, the Emperor had summoned Xiahou Qing into the Palace alone. It was difficult to predict whether the situation was good or bad. If Cao Hou went berserk, the situation would be dangerous!
Her mind raced, and in a very short period of time, more than ten countermeasures had flashed through her mind, but none of them could guarantee her own safety and help Xiahou Qing escape unscathed. But there was no time to hesitate. Even if she knew that there was a mountain of knives and a sea of fire in front of her, she couldn't leave him alone.
"Take good care of Ji 'er. I'll have to trouble She Yan to come with me!"
Seeing that she was in a hurry to leave, Forsythia hurriedly called out from behind, "Hey? Miss, where are you going? "
Before Ning Shu could answer, there was a loud exclamation behind her, "Look, the lanterns can fly!"
"Heavens, so many lanterns! There, there are dozens, no, hundreds and thousands! "
Then Ning Shu turned back and saw lanterns rising from the top of the Sanbai Water Pavilion into the night sky. One, two, three, countless, connected into a blazing star. The impact was too great. It was as if there was nothing else in the world except for this grand lantern that lit up the entire world in this sunless night. This, this was —
"Ah, look who that is! Ahhhh, it's Xiahou Qing, Heir Apparent Xiahou!!! "
