Chapter 512: Furong Gentleman's Banquet (5)

The light of the fire on the other side of the lake alarm everyone at the banquet.

Yu Shu was hugged by the timid Xin Liu, looking at the strange scene of the lake burning in the distance, not as panicked as the other female guests, according to what she thought, the banquet hosted by Xue Guifei was in the garden of King Xiang, no matter how messy it was, there would not be such a big movement.

In the water pavilion, Xue Guifei pinched her vermilion nails, took the expressions of the people in the flower houses on both sides into her eyes, and pursed the corners of her mouth.

This silent chuckle was like a signal, the fire burning far behind her, the next moment it exploded with a "boom", and the sparks in the sky danced and flared, as if they had wings, floating in the air, slowly landing on the surface of the lake, staying, flashing and flashing, from far to near, one by one.

"Wow!"

There was another commotion in the crowd, but it wasn't long before there was the first exclamation!

"Yikes! It's a hibiscus flower, no, no, it's a lantern, so many lanterns! ”

Soon, everyone saw clearly, the bright fire that was constantly approaching, was actually countless hibiscus lanterns, gold powder bewitching petals, fiery red stamens, as if someone was sprinkled from the sky, one by one floating on the water, blooming one by one, gradually lighting up the whole Dingbo Lake, illuminating the night and sky.

Xin Liu went from fright to excitement, let go of Yu Shu, lay on the fence, and leaned out half of her body, trying to see the hibiscus flowers falling in front of her eyes.

"Lianfang Lianfang, your hand leader, come and help me get one."

Yu Shu was urged by Xin Liu, and finally salvaged a floating lantern from the nearby water, and shook the water droplets on his hand. Take it to Xin Liu, and Miss Ning immediately rushed up.

"It's so light, no wonder it can fly."

"That's strange, this lake is at least twenty or thirty zhang wide, how did these lanterns fly from the opposite side?"

"Hey, this wick can't be blown out?"

The two studied for a while, and couldn't see through the clues, Xin Liu handed it to Yu Shu again.

"You can also take a look at the lotus room."

Yu Shu held the lantern the size of her two palms in one hand, and saw a small wick with dense wax oil. She tried to blow twice. Failing to extinguish the wick, the flame flickered playfully twice, and seemed to be brighter.

"It's filled with Saigon wax, which won't be extinguished in the wind. On the contrary, it fuels the arrogance. However, it is necessary to put on a silk linen lamp soaked in special vegetable oil. to ignite it. ”

Xue Rui didn't know when he came behind Yu Shu, his eyes silently swept over her face, and fell on the lantern in her hand. In a few simple words, this wick is strange.

The rest of the people in this flower room, when they heard him speak, all looked over, and soon, another young lady moved the lotus step lightly and moved in front of them.

"Xue Gongzi is really well-informed, I don't know how this lantern can fly so far from the other side, can you make it clear?"

The female guests who went to the banquet tonight were all good-looking, without a little confidence, and they didn't dare to speak.

Yu Shu glanced at the past, which made it clear that the woman who was talking to Xue Rui was not much older than Situ Qinglan, with a pair of phoenix eyes, and when she looked at people, she was very bright.

She couldn't help but turn her head to look at Xue Rui, with a handsome face in front of her, elegant and elegant, I have to say that it is very recruiting, that is, she is used to it on weekdays, so she doesn't feel rare.

Yu Shu was just a little uncomfortable in his heart, and saw Xue Rui glance back, looked at her, and then shook his head at the phoenix-eyed woman, and said modestly and politely:

"Forgive Xue for being unheard, it's hard to say."

The woman was disappointed in her eyes, but she didn't give up, and pointed to the railing by the water again, looking embarrassed: "I also want to catch a lantern and take a look, but I'm just scared of water, can I ask my son to do it for me." ”

This request is not too much, if Xue Rui refuses, it will inevitably be ungraceful, but on an occasion like tonight, a man and a woman have some submissiveness, and they will be seen in the eyes of others, and it is inevitable that they will be involved.

Xue Rui hesitated, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by the person beside him:

"There's no need to be so troublesome, just give this lamp to Miss for fun."

But it was Yu Shu who held up the ready-made lantern in his hand and went to the woman.

Xue Rui smiled in his eyes and took half a step back.

The phoenix-eyed woman hesitated, glanced at Xue Rui, and saw that he had no intention of stepping forward, but he also knew each other, so she took the lantern in Yu Shu's hand, thanked him, and retreated.

Xin Liu pursed his lips at the back of the family, and said dissatisfied with Yu Shu: "You gave my lamp to others, what am I playing." ”

In Xin Liu's opinion, the lamp that Yu Shu fished out for her was hers, but she was quite sensible, she didn't make trouble just now, and she complained at this time.

"I'll pay you later," Yu Shubai glanced at her, turned her head to Xue Rui and said, "The lights are far away here, it's not easy to fish, big brother and I will go over there and find a few near the water." ”

Of course, Xue Rui said yes, and the two walked out of the flower room together.

At this time, everyone at the banquet was admiring the vision of the sea of flowers on the lake, and there were also many men and women who ran to the shore bridge to salvage the lanterns.

Xue Ruigang claimed that Yu Shu was her sister-in-law in front of everyone, so the two walked side by side, the man was handsome, and the woman was eye-catching, although it was eye-catching, but no one would think about it elsewhere, I don't know whether it should be said to be good or bad.

The two walked along the shore of the lake, Xue Rui walked on the side of the water, Yu Shu walked inside, and when he turned his head, he saw a bright smile on his face, snorted slowly, and said:

"Attract bees and butterflies."

When Xue Rui heard this, the fan in his right hand turned to his left hand, he lowered his sleeves, and looked forward with his eyes, looking like a decent man and a gentleman, but he quietly grabbed her fingers in the dark, held them in the palm of his hand, and said in a low voice:

"Don't wronged me, I don't like to attract bees or butterflies, I'll take you as a lotus."

As he spoke, he looked back at her, but saw that her extremely cold face was full of crystal and jade brilliance, and there were two smears of pink on her cheeks, revealing a delicate posture that was invincible.

Yu Shu couldn't listen to his sweet words, but felt that the roots of his ears were soft, so he pinched his palm, and said angrily:

"You still dare to say that the crooked name you gave me at the time is now called by everyone."

"I've thought about it for a long time, how did it become a random take, lotus room, lotus room - like lotus heart, through the seven orifices, bitter, like a quiet room, rather my heart, isn't it?"

Yu Shu just said casually, she didn't expect that such a name that Xue Rui gave her at the beginning would have such a deep meaning, listening to him, unequivocally, she thought deeply at a glance.

She was proud in her heart, but deliberately waved her hand at him perfunctorily and said:

"It's not bad, it's all called that, I'll make do with it."

Speaking of which, Xue Rui hasn't seen her operator seal yet, and she doesn't know that she has used the word "lotus room" to make her seal.

And for a Yi Shi, the seal number registered in Si Tianjian is equivalent to the person's past and future reputation, which has a different kind of prudent meaning.

"By the way, I forgot to ask you, you already got your operator seal, it's not that it was carved with a piece of ivory seal, I'll take a look."

Xue Rui was also reminded of the word "lotus room", and asked her intentionally or unintentionally.

Yu Shu stretched out his hand and touched his waist, shook his head and said to him: "I changed my clothes today, I didn't bring them with me, and I'll show them to you tomorrow." ”

Seeing this, Xue Rui was vaguely expecting her to use the word "lotus room" he gave him to make a seal, but now he was uncertain.

I wanted to ask her, but I was afraid that I would be disappointed in the results, so I had to laugh and give up, but I didn't have much hope in my heart, I wanted to follow her strong temperament, and I wouldn't use the font name given by others.

Seeing that his eyes turned to the lake, Yu Shu secretly sighed, pinched his purse tightly around his waist, and touched the ivory seal inside, not wanting to admit that she would be embarrassed when she was cheeky. (To be continued.) )
