Chapter 33: Halloween Encounters Ghosts
The soul has crossed into this world, and Yue Xi has never dressed himself well.
First he wore a wrap for a few days, and then he wore men's clothes all the time.
It's not that she's so arrogant that she completely ignores her appearance, but she herself knows very well, according to her original fine yellow hair, thin body, and white face like paper, how beautiful can she be when she is dressed up?
When she crawled out of the coffin, she was wearing a bright red outfit and no one could see the men and women, but fortunately she didn't have the money to dress up, otherwise she would be misunderstood as a man dressed as a woman!
With this excitement and expectation, Yue Xi couldn't sleep anymore, stared until dawn, and finally felt sleepy, she wanted to squint for a while, she hugged the quilt and slept through noon.
Sleepy, she lay on the bed, squinting at the light coming in through the window for a long time, and couldn't figure out what time it was.
"In ancient times, this was not convenient at all, and you had to look up at the sun when you looked at the time!" Muttering and getting up, she added another article to the lack of toilet paper to the backwardness of some aspects of antiquity: look at the sun every day......
Getting up a little late, Yue Xi hastily washed up and went out with the dream of dressing himself up beautifully, and went straight to the place with the most shops in the west of the city.
She walked the shops on the three streets from beginning to end, and she didn't see a single dress that was pleasing to the eye after looking back and forth twice.
"Let's go back and let Xiao Jinjin make it for me."
Yue Xi is a secret agent, as a qualified agent, the first lesson she has to learn is how to hide herself, over time, the needs of these jobs have become her habits, and she does not like those colors that are too fancy.
Especially those brocades that are easy to be looked at, she will never look at them again after seeing them for the first time.
Carefully selected a few good materials with light colors and fine weaving, and Yue Xi bought a lot of them in one go. The women in the palace were the most detained hats of concubines, but in fact, they were all flower-like women in their prime, and it was the time to love beauty, and these materials were everyone's share, and Yue Xi did not eat alone.
Shopping is a time-wasting thing, and after walking around this time, it will be evening unconsciously.
Yue Xi carried a big burden loaded with various colors of fabrics back to the Chu house, and bought some vegetables halfway.
went home and piled up all the vegetables and meat in the kitchen, Yue Xi washed his hands, rushed into the bedroom, opened the bag containing the cloth, took out the fabric inside and compared it on his body one by one, and set up a bed in a short time!
"It's not bad...... I just can't wear it today......" After a while, I wanted to put away these fabrics with a little regret, but as soon as I turned around, I saw Ying Su looking at her with a smile against the door frame.
"Why did you get out and go in without a sound at all!" Yue Xi's face turned red after being taken aback, and he was a little embarrassed to be seen through his heart: "I said Your Majesty, you have been peeking for a long time, and you think that piece of fabric is beautiful?" ”
"You're willing to dress me up, and I naturally look good at every piece." Ying Su walked in and grabbed Yue Xi, who was about to put the burden in the closet, and said with a smile: "The door is not closed, I am watching in a dignified manner, where is it a peeking?" ”
"Don't make trouble, didn't you say that we were going to Xingguo Temple to put the lights on at night, and we haven't cooked yet......" Yue Xi saw that he was smiling beautifully, and couldn't help but reach out and touch his face, twisting his body and still leaving, but Ying Su dragged her and didn't let go: "How did I teach you last night?" ”
"Huh?" Raising his eyes to look at him, Yue Xi scratched his head: "What did you teach me?" ”
"It seems that you didn't take your husband's words to heart at all!" Ying Sujun's face sank, raised his hand to take the burden from her hand and put it on the bed, and then pouted and sent it to her: "As a wife, how should you treat your husband who has worked hard all day?" ”
"Haha!" Thinking of what he said yesterday, and looking at his serious appearance, Yue Xi opened his mouth and laughed endlessly, so that Ying Su happened to see her good teeth: "For the husband, for the husband, the call is quite smooth, you are really thick-skinned enough to call yourself my husband now!" ”
"It's just a candle in the cave." Ying Su was laughed at by her but didn't care, and took her wrist to call the pulse.
"Oops......" The more serious he was, the more interesting Yue Xi felt, and remembered that in his other courtyard, Ying Su said that he couldn't take his medicine anymore, and said that if he took it again, he would look like a woman, and she sat on the bed with a smile: "No one told you about your medical skills...... Is...... Isn't that how? ”
Ying Suqiao's face flushed, a trace of embarrassment flashed in her eyes, and then a trace of coldness appeared: "Only you said such things to me." ”
"Those puppets in the palace hospital, my mother, and even ......" and even the second lady of the Han family praised him for his superb medical skills, which can be called the holy hand of national medicine.
He couldn't say this, but later there were more people who said it, and he cured several people's incurable diseases with 'wonderful rejuvenation', so he secretly believed it.
Now looking at the woman sitting in front of him who laughed without giving himself face, Ying Su knew that his medical skills were no different from those 'orchids' concocted by his mother, and their mother and son were deceived by these people together!
"Yuexi." He called her name softly: "I'm serious, you will be my lady sooner or later." ”
Wife......
Don't take a wife and take a concubine?
Yue Xi stopped laughing and raised his eyes to look at him standing in front of him.
"You still have to take care of your body now, if we really become a famous husband and wife, I am afraid that you will work hard with a child." He said seriously.
The words "......" made Yue Xi feel that his whole body was burning in an instant, and his heart flickered, both shy and happy, and even more overwhelmed......
"Don't talk nonsense......" she lowered her head, not daring to look at his starry eyes again.
"I'm not talking nonsense." Reaching out to pick her chin, Ying Su looked down at her: "I want you to give birth to a prince for me." ”
"Hu ...... Nonsense! Panicked in his heart, Yue Xi forcibly ran away
Look, Yue Xi resisted the urge to run away, and stammered: "Who said that we will definitely have a son?" ”
"I knew that you were already willing in your heart...... "Ying Su looked at her proudly and whispered, "You and I will definitely give birth to the emperor!" ”
He said this with confidence.
Yue Xi pushed away him who was blocking him hard, and walked quickly to the door: "Let's discuss this matter later......
"The matter of giving birth to a child can be talked about when your body is well raised, but this ......" Reaching out to grab the woman who was about to run away, Ying Su blushed and sent her pursed mouth to her: "But this is unavoidable, you have to do what your husband taught!" ”
"Oops, what a ......"
A beautiful boy who was so cold before, after knowing that he was a woman, he was simply 'degenerate', Yue Xi was entangled by him and lost his temper, so he had to obediently become a 'good lady'......
……
"Look at it, it's all your ......"
A kiss from the 'good lady' made the 'good husband' reveal the essence of the big-tailed wolf, Ying Su hugged Yue Xi and refused to let go, and after a long lingering, he reluctantly let her go.
As a result, Yue Xi cooked, and when the two of them ate and came out again, it was already late.
The Obon Festival at Heungguksa Temple has just ended, and many pilgrims are bustling out of the open temple gates.
Yue Xi and Ying Su, who wanted to go in to have a look, saw that they couldn't get in, so they had to find a place with few people to stand against the wall.
Seeing that everyone else came out and was about to leave, and the two of them were late, Yue Xi whispered and complained about Ying Su.
Ying Su, who was thinking of coming out later, glanced sideways at her, but just smiled and didn't explain.
Yue Xi always regarded him as Beibei when he was with him, so he spoke and acted a lot more casually, and when she met his meaningful eyes, her heart moved, and she immediately understood his intentions.
Ying Su is the emperor, his identity is like this, if he is not completely sure, he is indeed not suitable to appear in a crowded place.
A place with a lot of people is a place with a lot of danger, and now he didn't have too many scruples about it in order to make himself happy, Yue Xi only felt moved.
Stepping forward, pulling him further into the wall, Yue Xi blocked in front of Ying Su, intentionally or unintentionally protecting him: "Let's not go in, I can't understand those monks' recitations, why don't we just walk on the street outside?" ”
"Okay." Ying Su smiled lightly and stretched out his arm, the Su hand under the wide sleeve had already held her, and he said in a low voice: "You don't have to worry, I have a shadow guard by my side." ”
"Hmm." The two looked at each other and smiled, and walked towards the less crowded street.
On July 15, Obon, also known as the Ghost Festival, is a festival to worship ancestors who have surpassed the dead and make offerings to the Three Jewels for meritorious deeds. It is a very, very important day in this dynasty.
Although it was late in the day and the festival had ended, a large number of pilgrims and tourists gathered here, and many stalls were set up on both sides of the long street, and busy vendors greeted passers-by from time to time, selling their wares.
Looking at the stalls one by one, Yue Xi saw that the things bought on the stalls were similar, but they were all things for the festival. Everywhere there were paper ingots and all kinds of utensils made for the ancestors.
"Flutter!" After looking at a few stalls, she took his hand and shook it: "Hey, why are these things for the dead, why don't we buy two paper figures and go back to the house?" ”
"Nonsense!" Ying Su's face sank at first, and then he couldn't help laughing again: "Okay, who will put paper people and paper horses in the house?" It's! ”
"Hey, hey!" Yue Xi glanced at him with a smile, and then looked away again.
"Let's go buy lotus lanterns, buy a few more, write down all your wishes and put them in the lotus heart, so that maybe that lamp will be seen by the Bodhisattva, and then it will come true!" Ying Su pulled her to the stall with few people, pointed to a few delicately tied lotus lamps and asked, "Shopkeeper, do you have pen and ink?" ”
"Yes, yes!" Seeing that the customer came and ordered the most expensive style of river lantern, the vendor immediately bowed down and took out a fluffy brush and an inkstone from the stall he was carrying: "Childe, it's just that you have to write it yourself, I can't write villain!" ”
"Hmm." Taking the bald brush, Ying Su frowned, turned his head to look at Yue Xi and complained, "Look at this pen......"
"No matter how bad the pen is, it won't prevent us from writing good words!" Yue Xi took the inkstone and saw that the ink inside had been studied, so he held it up and said, "Everyone writes their own, you write first......"
Two people with four hands, and they can only buy four lamps at most.
Seriously wrote a note, put in the lotus lamp, and asked the store to light the candles, Yue Xi Yu Yingsu alone held two lamps to the river behind Xingguo Temple.
Looking for a place with few people, the two of them squatted down, and Ying Su held a lamp and looked at Yue Xi: "I hope ......"
Yue Xi leaned over and kissed his lips, and then immediately let go: "Don't say it...... If you say it, it won't work......"
"Hmm." Ying Su smiled and nodded, and then carefully put the two lamps in his hand into the river......
The eyes of the two people were fixed on the two lotus lamps with fluorescent candlelight, watching them slowly float away, neither of them spoke.
"It's so pretty......"
The gently flowing river is brightened by thousands of river lanterns. From a distance, it looked like the stars in the sky were falling and spread on the surface of the river.
"Let yours go." Ying Su said softly.
Only then did he stretch out his hand and put the two pink river lanterns in his hand on the water, Yue Xi raised his head sharply, and his eyes looked at the brightly lit river.
On the opposite embankment, Miss Han Er, who was dressed in white and holding a lotus bun, was looking at her with teary eyes, while beside her stood a tall and handsome man wearing a brocade robe and a feather crown, staring at Yue Xi expressionlessly.
"That's General Zhaoyi, the elder brother of the Hua Dynasty." Ying Su's voice instantly became cold.

To explain, the river lantern is actually to illuminate the path to the afterlife for the undead~
It's not as written by money~
