There was silence in Zhengxiang Palace, except for the two little eunuchs on errand, everyone else went to the stage to watch the play, Leng Chen asked Ruo'an to stop on the corridor, and took out a jade flute from his arms......

Leng Chen lightly grasped the handle of the flute, holding it horizontally to his lips, the red silk tassel fluttered in the wind, and the pearl on the pendant swayed with the soft light...... Ruo'an looked at it stupidly, this scene is not too much to describe with beauty, if you wait quietly, after a while, the melodious flute sounds......

The whispering and mournful tone, sometimes loud, sometimes low, meandering, quiet and ethereal...... Ruo'an was stupid to listen to, she thought she had heard a lot of beautiful melodies, but Leng Chen's flute sounded deeply shocked her, the sound was as clean as a clear spring, transparent and graceful, listening to Jun's song, as if the whole person had been baptized.

At the end of the song, Ruo'an was still intoxicated by the melodious flute, and Leng Chen asked with a smile, "What do you want?" ”

Ruoan came back to his senses: "No...... It's nothing...... His Royal Highness's flute is really good......"

Leng Chen smiled: "What I will do is just some fur, if I change to her...... It's not an exaggeration to linger in the aftermath......"

Joan sat on the porch and asked, "She?" Who is it? Is that the princess you've been looking for? ”

Leng Chen shook his head: "No, it's my queen mother...... She is proficient in music and rhythm, and is good at calligraphy and painting......"

"Which palace is she? Have you never seen her come to Zhengxiang Palace? ”

Leng Chen paused, and only after half a sound did he slowly respond: "She is no longer alive......

"Uh...... I'm sorry...... I didn't mean to......" asked about other people's privacy and pain, and Ruoan felt very upset. Leng Chen smiled faintly: "It's okay, the deceased is gone, no matter how sad he is, he can't come back, and he has been relieved......"

Seeing that Leng Chen was not angry, Ruo An breathed a sigh of relief, but he couldn't hide the curiosity in his heart and asked, "You call her the queen mother...... And who is she? ”

"She's a former queen...... The current queen mother was just Concubine Luo, and after the death of the queen mother, her father promoted her from Concubine Luo to the queen of the six palaces......"

"Oh...... I see...... There are such twists and turns in between...... The former queen she ...... "Ruo'an's words were not finished, so she kept silent, in fact, she really wanted to know how the former queen died, but this seemed to touch the pain of Leng Chen's heart to lose his mother, and he stopped after only half of speaking.

"Old past, don't mention it, it's a Chinese New Year's Eve today, it's a good time, you have to have a good time, it's ......" Leng Chen said with a shallow smile, seeing that he resisted, Ruo'an stopped asking.

After a while, Leng Chen said: "It's almost time...... Ruo'an just wanted to ask something, but he heard a muffled sound in the air, and a point of light swished from the ground to the sky, and then exploded, scattering colorful stars and splashing around, like blooming chrysanthemums, dazzling. Before the fireworks dissipated, there was a loud bang, and the fireworks soared into the air, like meteors wandering, and fairies scattered......

With the continuous sound of this bang, one after another fireworks were sent into the sky, Ruo'an looked up and watched, clapping her hands and applauding, she never thought that in this ancient time, she could also see fireworks, although it is not as developed as modern technology, it is already a very good thing to be able to see, although she can't see where the fireworks are, but this does not affect Ruo'an's mood at all, she clapped her hands excitedly and shouted to Leng Chen: "Look over there!" Like a butterfly! And over there, does it look like a chrysanthemum? ”

Leng Chen smiled faintly and did not answer Ruo'an, but Ruo'an was still very excited, jumping and jumping, and even grabbed Leng Chen's hand for a while, but he didn't realize it, and he was still immersed in the splendor of fireworks.

The two of them looked up at the sky like this, not noticing that there were two people standing at the gate of the palace......

Leng Yang stood at the door with a jar of wine in his hand, and beside him was the eunuch Xiao Dezi...... Xiao Dezi saw that Leng Yang was just standing at the door and watching, and he didn't want to go in, so he urged: "Second Highness, aren't you going in?" ”

Leng Yang didn't speak, his expression looked a little lonely, especially when he saw Ruo'an holding Leng Chen's hand and watching the fireworks excitedly, he had an indescribable feeling in his heart, and he slowly responded after a while: "Forget it, go back, don't disturb them, it's ...... to celebrate the New Year."

"Yes......" Xiao Dezi responded, and was about to return to the palace after Leng Yang, when a voice suddenly came from behind him: "Why don't you come in?" ”

Leng Yang was stunned for a moment, and naturally knew whose voice it was, and turned his body around, just in time to meet Leng Chen's gaze......

Leng Chen's gaze was like water, and he couldn't see the slightest ripple, but Ruo An let go of Leng Chen's hand, and his face was crimson and beautiful.

Seeing that Leng Chen and Ruo'an were staring at him, Leng Yang couldn't shirk it and walked away like this, so he simply greeted him.

"Why did you come so late, I thought the queen mother would leave you behind, and you won't come this year if you don't have the skills......" Leng Chen said lightly, his smile was still very shallow, Leng Yang smiled reluctantly: "How come, the queen mother won't force me, it's already used to it......"

"What habits? Can you tell the slave or maid about it? Ruoan bowed, and then asked curiously. Leng Yang glanced at her: "Every year Chinese New Year's Eve, I keep the New Year with my eldest brother, and it has become a routine to play the flute and enjoy fireworks......" Leng Yang actually wanted to get angry, seeing that Ruo'an was not resting in the room, and ran out to make a fool, he was already unhappy in his heart, and he was even more irritable when he saw the intimate behavior of the two holding hands, but because of Leng Chen's face, he had to suppress the anger.

"Let's go back, the fireworks are over......" Leng Chen said and turned his wheelchair to go back, Ruo'an only cared about talking, and didn't notice that the fireworks had dissipated between the words of several people, and he was a little lost, seeing that Leng Chen was going back, he hurriedly went over to push him, Leng Yang didn't say anything, just silently followed the two back to the Changxin Palace.

Leng Yang put the wine jar on the table, and couldn't help but glance at Ruo'an, if he hadn't bumped into her drunk on the way, he wouldn't have forgotten to get the good wine stored in the cellar, this wine was extremely precious and he was afraid that the minions would be clumsy and spoil things again, so he had to get it himself, which delayed the time to make an appointment with Leng Chen...... In fact, every year at the end of the year, Leng Yang came to find Leng Chen, the two watched the fireworks together, and then drank and talked until dawn, this year was interrupted by Ruo'an, although he was dissatisfied, but he couldn't bear to criticize Ruo'an...... When I thought of her slightly drunk appearance before, my heart couldn't help but throb.

After placing Leng Chen, Ruo An bowed to the two of them and was about to leave, Leng Yang saw that the bowl on the table where the decanting soup was empty, and couldn't help asking, "Where is the soup?" ”

"Decanting soup?" Joan asked.

"yes...... Where did it go? Leng Yang asked.

"Just now Ruo'an was so drunk, I thought you wouldn't come, so I handed over the sobering soup prepared for you to Ruo'an...... I'll tell the kitchen guy to redo it for you......" Leng Chen explained.

Seeing that it was given to Ruo'an, Leng Yang was not angry, so he had to say: "That's it, don't bother...... You go back and rest, what are you doing with so much alcohol in the girl's house! ”

"Uh......" Ruoan was eager to answer, "What does it matter to you that I drink?" But she still suppressed her emotions and didn't squeak, Leng Chen seemed to see her embarrassment and said, "Go back and rest...... I don't need you to serve here......"

Ruoan saluted the two of them, and then retreated.
