Chapter 106: Chinese New Year's Eve
The time spent living in Yongwangfu was the happiest time in Mu Qianchen's life. In those days, she forgot her identity, forgot her pain and sadness, and gradually opened her heart to Yun Wenyan.
Yun Wenyan would teach Mu Qianchen every time she was free to deal with affairs, play chess, play the piano, and paint, and teach her many things that Mu Han would never tell her or let her do, and it also made her experience the happiness and warmth that she had never had.
On Chinese New Year's Eve that year, Yun Wenyan specially escaped the dinner in the palace and returned to the mansion to accompany Mu Qianchen. He walked into the room and saw her still sitting quietly, studying the game he had given her.
"Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, how can you stay alone in the house on such a lively day? Where did the little peach go? ”
"They said there would be fireworks in the evening, so they went out to see it."
"You are really understanding," Yun Wenyan smiled lightly, took out a red cloth from his arms, and stuffed it into Mu Qianchen's hand.
"What is this?"
"New Year's money."
"New Year's money? I don't want children's things. She looked up at him and smiled softly.
"Who said that it is a child's thing, and it can ward off evil spirits when you carry it on your body."
Mu Qianchen smiled, put down the book in his hand, opened the red cloth, and found that inside was a white and flawless jade pendant engraved with plum blossoms and the word "Chen".
"Father invited the Taoist of Lingyang Palace to come to the palace to pray for the palace people and dispel evil spirits, this is what I specially found the Taoist to do, and I have prayed for blessings, wearing it, I can bless you with peace and security."
"Wen Yan, thank you...... So good to me. ”
"I don't have to say thank you," Yun Wenyan smiled lightly, "These girls are really getting more and more lawless, they are going to have a good time, we might as well go and join in the fun." ”
"Join in the fun?"
"yes, go see the fireworks." Yun Wenyan picked up the cloak on the side and draped it on Mu Qianchen, pulled her and ran out, not at all what a prince should be.
The two of them trotted all the way to the small bridge in the city, and at this time, colorful fireworks also rose in the sky, decorating the entire night sky with great beauty. The two of them held hands, looked at the fireworks in the sky, talked, smiled, and were extremely happy. And Mu Qianchen smiled and smiled, but his heart was sour, but he suddenly hugged Yun Wenyan and cried quietly.
"Xiao Chen, what's wrong? Why do you cry? ”
"Wen Yan...... It's my first time Chinese New Year's Eve......."
"For the first time?"
"At this time of year, I'm either killing someone, or I'm on my way back from a mission...... Wen Yan, before I met you, I never knew what warmth was, let alone happiness and laughter...... At that time, I was just a killing tool. Wen Yan, I don't want to kill anymore, I want to live like an ordinary person......"
"It's good that you can think so," he took her in his arms and smiled softly, "but don't cry anymore, it's unlucky to shed tears during the New Year......
"Huh? Lord Wang, Miss Chen, why are you here? The voices of several maids in the house suddenly sounded in the ears of the two people, and looking at the way they hugged each other, the maids couldn't help but snicker, "Lord Wang...... Is there a happy event in the house? ”
Mu Qianchen was a little embarrassed and wanted to break away from him, but he didn't want to be hugged tighter by him, "You girls, you are really getting more and more lawless, I really want to punish you when I go back." ”
"Lord spare your life...... several maids begged for mercy, but they hugged each other and laughed.
Mu Qianchen coveted the warmth and the smell of thyme on his body, blushing and smiling lightly. People in the world are really different, the same is the royal family, the same is the emperor's son, Yunwen Yan is as warm as the sun, like the warm spring breeze in April, people can't help but want to get close; But Shen Yao is like the snow that has not melted for thousands of years on the snow-capped mountains, which is terrifying.
That day, Yun Wenyan was like a child, running around with her, making trouble everywhere, setting off firecrackers and fireworks in the palace, and personally writing Spring Festival couplets and pasting them on the lintel of the room.
At dawn, the air in the palace garden wafted with the faint fragrance of plums.
Seeing Mu Qianchen sleeping quietly in his arms, with a childlike happy smile on the corner of his mouth, Yun Wenyan couldn't help but smile lightly and lightly branded a kiss on her forehead.
Mu Qianchen, who was supposed to be asleep, had butterfly-like eyelashes trembling slightly, and his head couldn't help but shrink into his arms, leaving tears.
"So you're pretending to be asleep......"
"What's the matter, it's just that you woke me up." She looked at him, quibbling with little confidence.
"Oh? I didn't do anything just now, I just moved my arms. ”
"Nonsense, you obviously ......"
"Obviously what?" He smiled evilly, his face slightly red from the cold, and he smiled like a fox.
"You ......" Mu Qianchen jumped out of his arms and turned around in shame, "Wen Yan, you have learned badly." ”
"I'm just doing you bad." He stood up, gently hugged her in his arms, and whispered in her ear, "Xiaochen, I think I like you......"
"Wen Yan, don't be kidding."
"You think I'm joking?" Yun Wenyan raised his eyebrows, turned his head and kissed her lips deeply. Mu Qianchen was stunned for a moment, her mind was blank, and she couldn't react at all. There are only seven words circulating in my mind - I was kissed by Wen Yan......
After a long time, he finally ended the kiss reluctantly, looking at her stunned, a little overwhelmed.
"Wen Yan, I'...... I like you too...... Just, you really don't mind my past? Don't mind if I'm a killer and don't mind if I have so many things I didn't sue you? ”
"Xiao Chen, I don't mind. All I like is you, a simple and pure you, I just want you, no matter what you were before, killers or bandits, it doesn't matter. What I care about is not your past, but our future together. Xiaochen, would you like to marry me? ”
Mu Qianchen smiled, snuggled into his arms and nodded gently. "It's just my background......"
"As long as you are willing to marry, your background is not a problem. My father has been busy with the war with Qi recently, and after the spring, the war is almost over, and when that time comes, I will tell my father, I want to marry you. ”
"War? Isn't Qi Wei going to be friendly? Aren't you going to marry Shen Yaowei too? ”
"Because she's running away, but that's a good thing. So that I can marry you. There is also a bad thing, though. ”
"Huh?"
"After the New Year, I'm going to the front."
"To the front?" She looked at him with a look of surprise on her face.
"As a patriotic royalty, this is my unshirkable responsibility. Xiao Chen, don't worry, I'll definitely be back......"
