When Xiao Qing heard this, a gloom flashed in her eyes. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Second imperial sister-in-law, that Tang Gongzi...... Can you be in the Xiaoyao Mansion in the near future? ”

When Linglong heard this, she first glanced at Gu Xiao, and then smiled embarrassedly: "This...... Tang Gongzi is a person from the Guogong Mansion, how can he always live in the Xiaoyao Palace? ”

Xiao Qing's eyes lit up, "So, Tang Gongzi also entered Beijing?" ”

She originally wanted to try her luck, but she didn't think that Tang Jing would really return to Beijing.

"yes, that ...... You see, this lantern festival is about to begin, if nothing happens......"

Linglong stopped halfway through speaking.

Xiao Qing didn't care when she knew that she was chasing a guest, but smiled brightly and said, "It just so happens that I'm going to Chaonanhe too, so it's better to be together." ”

"I don't want to be with you, you hate it as much as the Fourth Emperor Sister, as soon as I came, I asked Brother Tang Jing, Yan Yan hates you the most, hum!"

Xiao Yan's cheeks bulged, waiting for Xiao Qing with a huff.

Xiao Qing smiled evilly, "The Eighth Emperor Sister is still as ignorant, Second Emperor Sister-in-law, let's go." ”

After speaking, I didn't look at a few more people, but my maid took the lead in helping the carriage.

"Second Emperor Sister-in-law......"

Xiao Yan looked at Linglong with an expression of being about to cry, and her small mouth was pouted.

Gu Xiao sneered, "Eighth princess, let's get in the car." ”

Xiao Yan glared fiercely at Xiao Qing's carriage, and stomped his feet again before being carried into the carriage by his personal maid.

Gu Xiao and Linglong looked at each other and smiled, and shook their heads helplessly.

――

As soon as the carriage of several people arrived at the Chaonan River, the road was already densely packed with people.

There are also many stalls selling lanterns, and there are also charades to give lanterns, and each stall is full of young men and women.

Gu Xiao couldn't help but be speechless, whether it was modern or ancient, as long as it was Valentine's Day, the plot of abusing a single dog was indispensable!

"Ah Xiao, do you know the meaning of this begging festival?"

Linglong was helped out of the carriage by Xiao Tao, she looked at Gu Xiao with a sluggish face and asked with a smile.

"Of course I know, Valentine's Day!"

"Valentine's Day?"

The fifth princess, who had just gotten out of the car, looked at her with interest, and only felt that the word was very fresh.

"This girl looks at her eyes, where did the second emperor's sister-in-law find the maidservant?"

Linglong willow eyebrows frowned almost inaudibly, "The fifth princess said with a smile, Ah Xiao is not my maidservant." ”

"Not a handmaiden?"

The fifth princess raised her eyebrows and looked carefully, but found that although Gu Xiao's dress was more elemental than those maidservants, her appearance was very clean and delicate, and she couldn't help frowning.

"Whose girl is it?"

This young lady of the family in the capital, she doesn't say that she has seen them all, but she has almost seen those who have status and status, and she has never seen this girl in it.

Gu Xiao bowed modestly and said, "Back to the fifth princess, the folk girl is an orphan, not a girl from any family." ”

She couldn't see the memory of Yanluo before she was eight years old, so she didn't know who she was or what kind of girl she was.

"Orphans?" Xiao Qing looked at Linglong, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

Although her second sister-in-law is not a person who dislikes the poor and loves the rich, she will not lower her status to have a deep friendship with an orphan with a low status, right?

Looking at the way the two speak, the relationship seems to be very friendly.

Not to mention that Xiao Qing was surprised, even Linglong was a little surprised.

The two have known each other for so long, and she has never heard Gu Xiao mention her life experience.

She always thought that Gu Xiao had escaped from home, but she never thought that she would be an orphan.

What kind of woman is this, obviously an orphan, but living so chic as the wind, is it because she has no worries, so she is so free?

She didn't know that Gu Xiao had lived in a harmonious family for twenty-six years, and for Gu Xiao, orphans were just identities in this era, and her family lived in another time and space.

"It's this princess who is rude, I don't want to, I mentioned the girl's sadness."

Xiao Qing calmed down, and also felt a little embarrassed that she had touched someone's sore spot.

"The five princesses are too worried, and the folk girls don't feel sad, because for the folk girls, they are all still alive, but they are just living in a place that the folk girls can no longer touch."

Xiao Qing and Linglong only felt that she was comforting themselves, and did not continue to mention it.

"Ah, the lanterns over there are not bad, why don't we pick them."

Xiao Qing pointed to a stall not far away, where there were relatively few people compared to other stalls.

"Yan Yan, do you want to go?"

Linglong flashed Xiao Yan's hand, stroked her head and asked softly.

"Second sister-in-law, Yan Yan doesn't want to go over there, Yan Yan wants that lantern."

Xiao Yan pointed to a place where people gathered, and several people looked in the direction she pointed, but saw a Dalian lantern with exquisite workmanship hanging in front of the stall.

"The little guy wants that? Don't worry, the Fifth Emperor Sister will buy it for you. ”

Although the little guy was reluctant, for the sake of the lanterns, he didn't say anything.

"Come, you go and buy that lamp for the eighth princess."

Xiao Qing took the purse from the body of the personal maid Ziyan, took out a hundred taels of silver ticket and handed it to the other maid.

The maidservant respectfully took the silver ticket and walked briskly to the stall.

After waiting for a while, he saw the maid walking back with the silver ticket with a look of embarrassment.

"Where's the lantern?" Xiao Qing frowned dissatisfiedly.

The maidservant hesitated for a moment with the silver ticket before she was embarrassed: "Back to the fifth princess, the stall owner said that the lantern was given only if you guessed five anagrams, and it was not sold." ”

"But who I am?"

"The slave maid said, but the stall owner said that even if His Majesty came, he couldn't make an exception."

As soon as these words came out, not to mention that Xiao Qing was shocked, even Gu Xiao and Linglong couldn't help but be surprised.

Xiao Qing came back to her senses and suddenly smiled leisurely: "Heh, this stall owner is so big, but it's a little interesting!" ”

People who can not be afraid of the Son of Heaven, to be honest, there are really few people in this world, and this stall owner is also a strange person, she wants to take a look.

"Let's go, let's see, who is the person who dares to make a big fuss in front of this princess."

Seeing Xiao Qing leaving, Linglong hesitated for a while, and didn't know whether to follow.

"Second sister-in-law, I want a big lantern!"

Xiao Yan pulled her sleeve and shook it, looking at her pitifully with her eyes.

Linglong's heart softened, "Okay!" After speaking, she said to Gu Xiao again: "Ah Xiao, let's go." ”

Gu Xiao nodded, observing the surrounding situation along the way, but saw that there were many young men and women on the riverside giving lanterns to each other.

"Look over there, that's where I met the prince."

Linglong pointed to the riverside, her face full of sweetness that could not be concealed.

"This begging festival only comes once a year, and only on this day, those young men and women dare to express their hearts to their dear people, this lantern is also a kind of confession."

Gu Xiao was dumbfounded when she heard it, this begging festival is still a blind date festival in disguise!
