Begging Festival
The courtyard was quiet, the cold moonlight sprinkled on the steps, and a pair of moon-white boots slowly climbed the steps.
The hand rested lightly on the vermilion carved wooden door, and the white hand seemed to gradually become transparent under the moonlight. "Squeak ......" pushed the door open, and the breeze blowing in from outside the door gently stirred the agate bead curtain at the partition.
The slender hand gently lifted the bead curtain, and looked at the sleeping man on the bed with a cold gaze like moonlight. The long eyelashes fluttered up and down with the rhythm of breathing, and the fair little face was slightly flushed, but it was even more endearing.
"Uh-huh......" The man slept restlessly, twisted and stretched out a hand.
An Yiran's eyes fell on the slender little hand like a jade onion, slowly walked to the side of the bed, gently put the little hand back into the quilt, pulled the corner of her back, and covered half of her exposed body.
"Is the person you like really Murong Chenyi?" Lowering his eyes, a somewhat sad gaze fell on that little face.
"Oh~" Listening to the chirping of birds outside, Xia Qianluo blocked the dazzling sunlight with his hand, and frowned, "My head hurts......"
"Spirit? Spirit? She finally sat up and called out a few times.
A series of hurried footsteps, Lingxi hurriedly walked in from outside the door, "Princess, is there something wrong?" ”
"What time is it?" Xia Qianluo squinted her eyes and rubbed her temples, looked at her and asked.
"It's time."
"When?" Xia Qianluo was a little surprised, turned his face sideways and looked at the bright sunlight shining in from outside the door, but he didn't expect that it was already this time when he woke up...... "What is that?" As she looked back, she found a small brown porcelain vase on the table.
"It was sent by Gongzi An in the morning." Lingxi said, "Gongzi An said that the princess drank too much wine last night, and she may feel a headache when she wakes up this morning, and said that she will be better if she takes this medicine." ”
Ann as well? Xia Qianluo looked at the small porcelain vase and was a little surprised, she couldn't imagine that frost beauty man would think so much about her. Just thinking about it, she felt her temples thumping, so she asked Lingxi to take one and let her take it.
Walking alone in the garden, looking at the bright sunshine, Xia Qianluo closed his eyes comfortably. This is like how I felt when I first arrived...... Remembering four years ago, she smiled, because at that time, as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw the gentle young man who was like a warm sun.
It's been four years...... Xia Qianluo faced the gentle summer breeze, and the wind ruffled her slender hair on her sideburns.
"It seems to be very lively on the streets today!" With her ears sharp, she suddenly heard the conversation of the maid walking in front of her.
"Of course!" Another maid said, "Tonight is the Begging Festival!" There will be an illumination festival at night! ”
"Really!? I've heard that the city is lively, so I really want to go and see it! ”
"But we're both on duty tonight......"
Xia Qianluo, who was standing behind them, showed a sly smile, "Ahem......" She coughed twice deliberately.
"Ahh Princess! When the two maids saw the people behind them, they hurriedly knelt down.
"Isn't it like you're going to see a lantern show at night?" Xia Qianluo looked at the two of them with a smile and asked.
"......" The two looked at each other in horror with their heads down, and quickly shook their heads, "The slave doesn't dare!" Slaves don't dare! ”
"......" looked at the two of them as if they had seen ghosts, Xia Qianluo pursed his lips, isn't his smile still amiable? Sure enough, it still has a bad reputation before...... Sighing slightly, she turned to the two of them and said, "I'll let you two go to the lantern festival tonight!" ”
"......" The two maids looked at each other in a daze, and then looked at the person in front of them timidly, not daring to speak.
"But there is one condition~" Xia Qianluo looked at the two of them with a smile.
"......," she whispered in their ears.
The two were stunned, and hurriedly kowtowed, "Yes, yes, yes......"
"Alright, let's go."
Looking at the two people who fled in a hurry, Xia Qianluo showed a sly smile.
After dinner, Xia Qianluo pulled the Lingxi on the side, "Na, Lingxi, do you know the Qiqiao Festival?" ”
"Of course!" Lingxi nodded and said, "The Begging Festival is also called the Daughter's Day, and many daughters' families will go to the temple to pray for blessings today!" And ......"
"What else?" Xia Qianluo asked curiously.
Lingxi blushed, "And ...... Begging for a quick Yujian favorite person......"
Xia Qianluo nodded, it turns out that this is the case~ It's a bit like Tanabata!
Lingxi suddenly realized, "It turns out that today is the Begging Festival!" ”
"That's right!" Xia Qianluo smiled and nodded, "Then I heard that there is a lantern festival tonight, do you want to go and see it?" ”
"Lantern Festival? …… I heard that Fengcheng's lanterns are famous......"
"Huh? Haven't you seen the lantern festival here? Xia Qianluo was a little surprised.
Lingxi shook his head, "Lingxi has been in the palace as a palace maid since he was a child, and he is not allowed to leave the palace on weekdays except for family leave once a year." ”
"That's it......" Xia Qianluo looked at her with some pity, she had to serve others at a young age, so she should have few happy memories of childhood...... So he took her arm, "Then let's go to the lantern festival tonight!" ”
