Chapter 30: The Festival of the Magic Lanterns

This feels like a few northern men in down jackets who have entered the forty-degree summer in the south, and it is no wonder that everyone looks at it with contempt!

The group stopped at an inn, Yu Tianqing changed her clothes, bought some nuts, and waited for Ruan Xinghe to come out. Ruan Xinghe changed into local clothes and wore a white striped turban, but his face was quite disgusted.

Yu Tianqing: "Sure enough, a good skin is more important than anything else!" ”

The two ordered some meals, Yu Tianqing ate happily, but Ruan Xinghe was quite cautious.

Yu Tianqing: "Eat quickly, you have strength when you are full." ”

Ruan Xinghe asked while eating, "What are you doing with the strength?" ”

A group of soldiers suddenly poured out, surrounding the two of them.

Yu Tianqing finished gnawing the chicken leg in his hand and said, "Fight." ”

The soldier commander was a thin, middle-aged man, and he shouted a few times. It was Ruan Xinghe who translated: "He said, on the order of the noble concubine, the two of them will be arrested!" Death penalty for stealing! ”

Yu Tianqing didn't resist either, stretched out his hand to tie them up, and at the same time glanced at Ruan Xinghe, he suddenly realized, tiptoed a little, and flew far away.

The soldier was about to chase Ruan Xinghe, but the thin middle-aged man shouted: "No need to chase, the concubine said it, just catch this woman." ”

Inside the prison, the flames were beating, and a tall figure faintly appeared in the pale red aura. The visitor was dressed in a green costume and wore a gold crown with a ruby inlaid on his head.

Yu Tianqing covered her eyes with one hand.

The person sneered a few times: "What, you also have a scared day?" ”

Yu Tianqing: "It's not that I'm afraid, it's just that your combination of red and green is just blinding my eyes!" ”

A flirtatious smile appeared on the corner of Liu Qiluo's lips: "The king of a country has become my Nanwan's prisoner, and you are still a dead duck with a hard mouth!" I'll be tortured later, and see if you will cry out in pain. ”

Yu Tianqing pretended to exaggerate and said: "Guifei Niangniang, don't you want to know his current situation?" Before he left, he lived in my Xingyuan City for a while! ”

Referring to that person, Liu Qiluo showed a trace of loneliness on her face, she carefully took the jade pendant in her hand, when she was in the desert country in the past, this was the jade pendant given to him by the eldest princess, he had always worn it on his side, and now for Yu Tianqing to enter Nanwan Kingdom, he was willing to take it out!

Since she returned to Nanwan, no matter how she contacted him, she had never heard from him. Even when she remarried to the Southern Emperor, Beizhiyao never had the slightest obstruction! She always thought that in those years of hard life in the Moguo Palace, the friendship between the two of them had become extremely strong. It's all because of you, because of you!

A hint of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes: "I am now the concubine of Nanwan Kingdom, even if Beizhiyao has to serve me as the master, those little loves are just clouds of the past!" I don't want to know anything about him! I'm interested in how you'll escape from this iron-solid prison! ”

She motioned for the jailer to open the cell door and took out a soldering iron from the brazier, which was making a "sizzle" sound.

"Although your face is not beautiful, if you see too much, you will inevitably feel pity! Doesn't Beizhiyao like your skin the most? When I destroy it, I don't know if he will still have a deep affection for you! ”

Yu Tianqing's scalp was numb for a while, and she only scolded secretly in her heart, this woman's way to deal with women is always to ruin her appearance!

Yu Tianqing: "You're wrong! He didn't love you, and he didn't love me. Don't you know how I escaped from him? Back then, I was imprisoned, deceived, and my martial arts were wasted and scarred. Fortunately, I woke up early, and I advise you to wake up as soon as possible! All he loved was the throne and the people! ”

Liu Qiluo's smooth face was reflected in the fiery twilight, and the movements in his hands hesitated, as if he had been touched. After a moment, more hatred gathered in her eyes: "You are also wrong, I am not just here to take revenge on you!" What's more, it's for the future of my Nanwan! ”

The steaming iron was about to fall on Yu Tianqing's face, making her exclaim. Suddenly there was a "boom", Liu Qiluo's wrist hurt, the soldering iron fell to the corner of the wall, and a few withered yellow straws burned.

Liu Qiluo turned her head suddenly, but saw Bing Ling coming over, followed by a man in white, it was Ruan Xinghe. I said why I didn't see Ruan Xinghe, it turned out that I went to move the rescuers.

Liu Qiluo: "Princess Bingling, the emperor sent a concubine, you won't be here to stop it, right?" ”

Bing Ling pushed open the prison door and took out a token: "According to the emperor's order, today is the Divine Lantern Festival, and the presence of the Emperor of Danhua is God's will!" Hurry up and invite your guests to stay at the inn! ”

Liu Qiluo saw the Southern Emperor Token and looked respectful: "Yes." ”

Yu Tianqing sat in the corner of the wall with a big grin: "I'm afraid that the concubine Niangniang has forgotten one thing, I am here to get the antidote!" If you don't give me the antidote, I will tell the Southern Emperor all the ugly things you have done in the desert country, as well as the deliberate destruction of the diplomatic relations between the two countries! ”

Liu Qiluo showed disdain: "The Southern Emperor treats me like a mountain, he has long known about my concubine in Moguo, not to mention, Wen Xindu is dead, what evidence do you have?" ”

Ruan Xinghe saw Liu Qiluo playing a rogue face, and he was angry for a while, and he was about to take a sword, but he was stunned by Yu Tianqing and pressed back.

Yu Tianqing: "Then dare to ask the concubine Niangniang, what do I need to get the antidote?" ”

Liu Qiluo: "It's very simple, every year in the Magic Lantern Festival in Qinghui City, there will be a competition, you have to hide your identity to participate, if you win, the antidote is yours." ”

Yu Tianqing: "Okay." The concubine has to talk about it. ”

Yu Tianqing, Ruan Xinghe, and Bing Ling walked on the street, and Bing Ling: "Why did you promise her?" This woman has always been cunning. "Many years ago, Liu Qiluo was just a maid in front of her aunt, but since she was divorced by her brother, she has climbed to a high branch!

Yu Tianqing: "If you can't get the antidote, the lives of hundreds of people in Xing Yuancheng will be gone." "So by all means, give it a try.

Bing Ling led the two to a wooden house, and Ruan Xinghe said to Yu Tianqing, "We'll wait for you outside." ”

The room was neatly tidy, and there was a huge screen in front of you.

A soft voice came, "There you are." ”

Yu Tianqing sat down at the small table and said, "What? This southern saint is now unsightly? Thank you for saving us this time. "Last time, Bing Ling went to Danhua to discuss the release of Hai Yueyi, and used Situ Yuan's waist card as a thank you gift. If it weren't for this waist card, Ruan Xinghe would never have seen the ice spirit today.

Situ Yuan chuckled: "You are a person, you never make loss-making transactions. "It's because she understands that she asked Bing Ling to bring her waist card to negotiate.

Yu Tianqing: "The world is so sinister, a noble princess like you who has a good life, of course, will not understand the survival of our people." ”

Situ Yuan clenched his handkerchief tightly, is it a good life?

"Actually, I envy you, live as you please. Then again, how are you going to deal with Liu Qiluo? ”

Yu Tianqing poured a few sips of tea, and stuffed a piece of dim sum in his mouth: "What else, take one step at a time!" By the way, tell me, what exactly is the competition that Liu Qiluo is talking about? ”

Situ Yuan: "Actually, Qinghui City is only a small city in Nanwan Kingdom, so this kind of competition is not a formal competition. Nanwan country believes in Buddhism, and every time there is a magic lantern festival, there will be a master who sets up a ring next to the Jiaohe River to preach Buddhism. ”

Yu Tianqing suddenly realized, and she poked her head again: "You really don't see me?" Then I'm leaving. ”

Situ Yuan paused for a moment and whispered, "You know what I want to hear from you." ”

After about half an hour, Yu Tianqing came out of the house.

Bing Ling: "Don't stay at that inn. I've got another inn for you. ”

In a blink of an eye, it was the night of the competition. Because of Liu Qiluo's arrival, the people of the entire Qinghui City were boiling. Next to the sparkling water, there is a ring. Several monks have taken their seats, and the theme of the debate is the crossing of people, each of whom holds a flower in his hand, and the one who wins the most flowers wins.

Liu Qiluo sat on a sedan chair, and the sun flower decoration on the sedan chair was extravagant.

On the other sedan chair, it is naturally Situ Yuan who sits on. Compared with Liu Qiluo's high-profile, Situ Yuan's sedan chair is much simpler, and in the white veil, people can't distinguish between fiction and reality.

Yu Tianqing sat on the very edge, the same gauze robe as the monk was slightly wide, and the whole person seemed to be sitting on the water.

Several monks began to preach the Dharma, and the audience was immersed in a heated debate. Suddenly, a monk turned his gaze to Yu Tianqing: "I don't know what this monk thinks?" ”

Seeing that Yu Tianqing still didn't answer, the onlookers laughed.

Before the laughter fell, I saw a few bright lights suddenly flying on the surface of the river. The emaciated monk floated on the surface of the river. She has a cinnabar mole on her eyebrows, and her expression is very much like that of the Purdue sentient beings!

The crowd was boiling, people kept kneeling to pray for blessings, and excited people threw flowers in their hands into the middle of the river!

Liu Qiluo half-narrowed his eyes, such a little trick can't fool me!

However, seeing Bing Ling walking forward, he knelt down and bowed down reverently, and even Situ Yuan stepped out of the sedan chair and hugged his shoulders with both hands.

Liu Qiluo had always known Situ Yuan's image in the hearts of the people of Nanwan, so he had to get off the sedan chair and pray extremely sincerely.

In the dead of night, Liu Qiluo turned over and got on the horse, and just a few steps away, he saw a figure!

She had already changed her robe, but the cinnabar mole in the center of her eyebrows had not yet been washed away.

Liu Qiluo: "What? Buddha pretended to be addicted? ”

Yu Tianqing spread out her palms: "Not really." It's just a concubine, don't forget your promise! ”

Liu Qiluo was annoyed in her heart, but at this time she didn't bring a guard, and Yu Tianqing had always been scheming, just this time she failed, and there was a next time.

She took out a porcelain vase from her sleeve and threw it to Yu Tianqing.

Ruan Xinghe watched Liu Qiluo's horse go farther and farther, and couldn't help but be a little worried: "How do you know that her antidote is real?" ”

Yu Tianqing: "She has already lost, there is no need to make fake drugs to entertain me." ”
