At dusk of the Lantern Festival, before the Lantern Festival begins, His Majesty will first go to the west corner tower of the palace gate to have fun with the people of the capital who have already gathered below, and light the largest dragon lantern to herald the beginning of the Lantern Festival.

In the past, His Majesty and the Empress appeared together, but this time, Qi Zongwen said early in the morning that he would let Qin Yunyi dress up and attend together when the time came.

In previous years, Qin Yunyi refused on the excuse that the dress was too heavy and unwilling to be tired, but this time Qi Zongwen said, "It's a while to be tired, come down from the corner tower, and you can change your clothes and go to enjoy the lanterns." ”

Qi Zongwen insisted, but Qin Yunyi couldn't, so he could only go up to the corner tower with him.

The people under the palace walls soon discovered that there was an extra woman beside His Majesty today, "Who is that?"

"It's the concubine. ”

"And Concubine Min. ”

As soon as the news came out, the crowd was sensational, everyone said that the concubine was a fairy and a goblin, but they had never seen it, and now they knew that the concubine was upstairs, and everyone raised their feet to look up, wanting to see what the concubine was like.

Qin Yunyi saw the crowd of people below, saying that she wanted to see the concubine's voice from scattered to more and more, and suddenly hesitated, but Qi Zongwen held her hand and asked her to go forward a little further, "They want to see you." ”

"Your Majesty. Qin Yunyi didn't understand what he meant at this time, but why did His Majesty do this.

Qi Zongwen stepped forward with her and beckoned to the people under the city walls.

"That's the concubine, it's so good-looking, what a match for standing with Your Majesty. ”

"The concubine looked very kind, not as fierce as she said. ”

"The concubine is so pretty. ”

……

The queen's palms were about to pinch blood, and with a smile on her face, she walked to Her Majesty's side, with the intention of not letting the concubine be pretty, but compared with the two, she was not as beautiful as the concubine.

No one praised her, they all went to see the concubine.

"Your Majesty, go down after lighting the lamp. The queen smiled and proposed, "The night wind is rising." ”

Qi Zongwen nodded, and after lighting the dragon lantern, the lanterns were lit one after another inside and outside the palace, practicing into a long line, and it was like a swimming dragon in the dark.

Qin Yunyi went back to change the crown of the dress first, because he was preoccupied, he didn't have a smile on his face, and Miao An's face was flushed with excitement, "So many people are shouting about the concubine." ”

"They haven't seen Niangniang before, and they don't know how good Niangniang is, so there are so many people who follow the clouds, listen to the wind and rain, and say those rumors. ”

"They all saw Niangniang today, and they knew that Niangniang was a beautiful and kind-hearted fairy daughter, and they would definitely not speak ill of Niangniang again. ”

Miaoqing saw that Niangniang's demeanor was not very happy, so she pushed Miaoan and asked her to stop talking. "Do you still go to enjoy the lanterns?"

"Go. Qin Yunyi came out in an emotion and said, "Your Majesty is still waiting." "Your Majesty asked her to show her face in front of the people for her own good, and it would be too small not to go for this.

Miaoqing combed her hair again, changed her clothes, stuffed copper dates and put them in her sleeves, put a windproof fur cloak on her outer head, and cleaned up before going to Lin Yuan.

When he got out of Shanglin Yuan, he took a step, and he was not in a hurry to go to His Majesty, "Your Majesty must be surrounded by many people, let's walk over slowly, and let them accompany Your Majesty to talk more." ”

"Niangniang, the slave maid has long inquired about how the lights are arranged, how to walk and see the most lights, and keep not missing any good-looking lights. Miao An said.

"Then I'll go with you, and if you don't see a good lamp, or if you miss it, I'll take out your bounty and share it among everyone. Qin Yunyi said with a smile.

Shanglin Garden is already tortuous and meandering, and the place that is too far-reaching will naturally not be arranged with lanterns, so it is necessary to artificially set up obstacles in Daping to increase interest and viewing.

Miao An took people more and more away, and Miao Qing saw that it was sparsely populated all the way, so she said to Qin Yunyi, "Niangniang, it's time for us to go back, Your Majesty should send someone to urge." ”

"Where are you going to take me?" Qin Yunyi asked Miao'an, "What a great lamp is there in front of here?"

"It's a fish lamp made by a craftsman, it's the length of a man and half a person's height, and the scales are all dyed by himself, lifelike and dreamlike. Miao An said, "The slave maid has seen it, but it is good-looking, but because the craftsman is not a person who can please his boss, his fish lamp was arranged in such a remote place, and the slave maid thought, it is a pity that the mother does not see such a beautiful lamp." ”

"It's not the same as these vulgar powders. ”

"If the lamp is really so good-looking, you ask him to send the lamp to Ronghua Palace tomorrow, otherwise it will be done, why let Niangniang go so far. Miaoqing said.

"It's all here, let's go and go back. Qin Yunyi said.

Hearing the sound of running water, Qin Yunyi realized that they had already walked to the edge of the Yucheng River, and the fish lamps that Miao An said were installed on the riverside, the largest one was indeed one person long, half a person high, and the rest also had fish lamps of various sizes, forming a school of fish by the river.

The fish scales were not painted, but the red paper was cut into fish scales and pasted on, and the fish's eyes were also made to move, and the differential was blown, and the fish's eyes also moved, which was really half like fire.

The colors of the scales are cyan, blue, and pink, and there are seven or eight colors on a fish, and they don't feel fancy, but they are printed by candles, adding a fairy spirit.

Compared with the water light, what is it that is not a fairy?

"This one is really nice. Qin Yunyi said after quietly appreciating it for a moment.

"The slave and maid had not lit the lamp when they saw it, but it turned out that it was even more beautiful after lighting the lamp. Miao An said.

"Tomorrow, let people send these lamps to the Ronghua Palace, and I will see what it looks like if the lamps are not lit, and let Your Majesty see the lamps. Qin Yunyi said, "But the fish's eyes won't be opened." ”

After stopping and admiring for a moment, Qin Yunyi said go back, so as not to make His Majesty anxious.

When I came, because I wanted to look for it and look at the lanterns along the way, it was a little slow to move around, and I had to go back, and I didn't have to stop for the lanterns on the side of the road to be much faster.

After passing through the rockery in front of you, you will reach the place where Daping is, and suddenly a strong wind blows, blowing out all the lanterns near the master and servant.

Miaoqing looked around vigilantly, "Niangniang, let's go." ”

"Go where there is light. ”

Qin Yunyi was led by people to run left and right, "Slow down, slow down." ”

"Oops. At the corner, he collided with a group of people, and each fell into a ball, "Where did the brute bull come from, no eyes?" a delicate voice drank.

"Niangniang, are you alright? "After Miaoqing was taken down, she went to help Qin Yunyi as soon as possible.

"I'm fine, quickly pull Miao An up, it's all on her, what's the crush?" Qin Yunyi said.

The man was still chattering and cursing, and after scolding the group in front of him for not having long eyes, he scolded Neisi again, "It's useless, the lanterns prepared for the Lantern Festival have been extinguished by themselves, and I'm not afraid of bad luck." ”

"Qin Yunyi, that woman is very powerful to seize power with her subordinates, a waste who can't do anything at all, she can sit in a high position by relying on the concubine's dog, and she should do these bad things. ”

"I don't know this palace, who are you talking about?" Qin Yunyi said indifferently.

The voice of the people over there froze in the dark, she thought that His Majesty was busy around her, and she couldn't get in, so she couldn't see it, and slipped outside to see the lanterns, where did she know that she would bump into the main owner here.

She pulled the palace maid beside her, motioned for her to help herself up, and quickly took advantage of the darkness to sneak away without seeing her face clearly.

"This palace advises you not to go. Qin Yunyi seemed to be able to guess her thoughts, so he said lightly, "This point is not with Your Majesty, as soon as you ask, you will know, do you want to finish today's business, or do you want the Japanese Palace to come to you with great fanfare." ”

If the concubine's back stiffened, she stopped. "The concubine drank two more glasses of wine at the banquet and talked nonsense. She slapped herself in the face, "The words collided with the concubine Niangniang, and please bear with me." ”

"Niangniang is careful with her step. A voice came from not far away, "Otherwise, Niangniang, you still have to find a place to sit, and the slave maid will go and get the lamp before leaving, otherwise what can I do if there is a mistake." ”

"Someone is coming. Qin Yunyi turned his head and said to Miaoqing, "Do you bring a fire fold, light it up and remind them that there are people here, don't be confused." ”

Miao An opened the fire fold, but a little light was immediately blown out by the wind, and it was repeated twice, and Miao An's expression was solemn. "Niangniang, let's go first, something looks wrong here. ”

She raised her voice and shouted, "The concubine is here, who is in front of her?" ”

The man in the distance replied first, "The concubine is a diligent concubine." ”

"Qin Concubine?" said the concubine in surprise, "She is pregnant, so she can't sit in the pavilion well, what are you doing here?"

"Tell them to stay where they are and not move, protect the concubines, and wait for someone to answer them. Qin Yunyi said.

"Clouds—son—"

"Flowers-lights-good-look--" The mournful and ethereal female voice floated from far and near.

Shui Sheng is also a good situation was messed up by himself, originally watched the concubine and his party go to a place with few people, and it happened that she came out to do activities, but the first time she saw those fish lights, she was also calm, and she missed the best period after watching it for a long time.

Now there are a lot of people here, but she can't help it, she can't find such a good opportunity anymore, and the lantern is out It's quite obvious from a distance, someone will come to check it later, anyway, just say two words.

Qin Yunyi turned his head violently.

Ru Concubine hid behind the palace maid, trembling, "Who is talking?"

The palace maids of the concubines also surrounded the concubines and did not dare to speak.

"Clouds—son—"

Qin Yunyi looked around.

The white figure passed between them, bringing with it a gust of wind, "Ahh——————h

"Shut up for me. Qin Yunyi shouted fiercely.

"Yun'er—are the lanterns pretty?"

"It's a pity I can't see it anymore. The white shadow stood on the rockery and said with a shadow.

"Who are you?" Qin Yunyi asked.

"There are ghosts, there are ghosts. Frightened to the extreme, Ru Concubine seemed to burst out of divine power, pushed away the palace maid and ran to a place where there was light, "There are ghosts." ”

"Oops. The palace maid of the concubine was pushed and fell to the ground by someone vigorously, because standing in front of the concubine, she also brought the concubine to the ground, and the concubine covered her stomach, "Ah, my belly." ”

"?!"

In an instant, the scene became chaotic.

Shui Sheng saw that he was playing big, and he didn't pretend to be a ghost, so he cried twice My life is so bitter, and it's good to slip away.

Qin Yunyi wanted to chase after him, but was held by Miaoqing and Miao'an, "It's dangerous, you can't go." ”

The palace maid of the concubine cried and called Niangniang, I don't know what happened to the concubine, Qin Yunyi could only press it and walked to the concubine, "Who has the strength, carry the concubine on his back, hurry up to a place where there is light, hurry up and call the imperial doctor." ”

Halfway through them, they met His Majesty's group who came forward with lanterns, and they all heard that a ghost was coming, Qi Zongwen anxiously walked to the front, "Yun'er!"

Qin Yunyi stepped forward to catch his hand, "I don't care, hurry up and call the imperial doctor to show Concubine Qin, she seems to have fallen." ”

Qi Zongwen looked at the paper-colored concubine on the back of the palace maid, and his eyebrows were raised, "Hurry up and send the concubine back to the palace and call the imperial doctor." ”

Under the bright lights, you can see a trace of blood under the feet of Qin Concubine, and everyone present is stunned, Qin Concubine's children are afraid that they will be more than lucky.

"What happened, how could the lanterns go out?" Qi Zongwen asked, "Are you scared?" ”

Qin Yunyi didn't shake his head yet.

Ru Concubine was already crying bitterly under the support of the queen, "It's a ghost, the ghost blew out the lantern." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, how can there be ghosts in this palace. The queen patted her hand and said, "It's just that it's dark, you can't see it, and you're stunned." ”

Ru Concubine shook her head quickly. "No, mother, there are really ghosts. ”

"That ghost is still calling Yun'er's name, saying that Yun'er's lanterns are good?" Ru Concubine said in the tone of the ghost, and under the light, all the concubines were given goosebumps when they heard that tune.
