Chapter Seventy-Three

It was getting late, and it was not real from the crack in the door, and the characters with heads and faces in Shangjing were pouting and lying on the door listening.

After a long time, Si Nanping said, "They won't just sleep like this, right?" ”

Qin Ruilan glanced at him and said, "They are all tired all day today, so naturally they have to go to bed early, what are we still doing here, let's all go back." ”

Chi Xing, the grandson of the Taifu in Beijing, smiled and said: "The prince has been serious since he was studying, and he didn't know how to do it, but he knew that this was the case, and I should have taken him to Yihong Courtyard before marriage." ”

Qin Ruilan and the other ladies had black lines on their faces, this was the first time they had heard such unruly words from the mouths of the disciples of the scholarly sect, and they didn't know if Mrs. Chi would blow his beard angrily when he heard this.

Behind him, several princes who were familiar with Chi Xing laughed at him, and they were clamoring to tell the Taifu that Chi Xing was most afraid of his grandfather, and he was busy arguing with several princes for the good of the prince, and for a while, the outside of the cave room was more lively than the inside of the cave room.

After drinking the acacia wine, Qi Jingqin and Liang Huanqing sat on the edge of the bed.

The wedding tent of the same color as the wedding dress is hung on the bed railing layer by layer, countless Yingluo jade hanging on the side, and the bed is replaced with a new quilt, on which a picture of mandarin ducks playing in the water is woven with gold and silver threads, which is vivid and dexterous.

Two white jade porcelain pillows are smooth and round, and there is a child-raising charm from Yunxiao Temple pressed below, and the four corners of the bed are respectively placed with longan red dates, taking the meaning of giving birth to a noble son early, and when you open the happy quilt, you can still see that there is a bright yellow red handkerchief in the middle of the bed.

Liang Huanqing's face turned red when she saw this, and she hurriedly turned her face away and stopped looking, Xi Niang didn't teach her, but when she was about to go through it, she still felt shy.

They could hear the movement outside the door clearly, as a friend of Chi Xing's classmates, Qi Jingqin couldn't help blushing, Liang Huanqing also subconsciously looked at him, and when he saw his cheeks flushing, he couldn't help but sneer.

Qi Jingqin rubbed his knees with his hands in embarrassment, and after a while, as if he had thought of something, he said to Liang Huanqing: "Are you tired today?" Do you want to sleep? ”

Because the bride will enter the palace early tomorrow morning to ask for peace, and Liang Huanqing is still injured, Qi Jingqin is worried that she will not be physically exhausted, so he asked with concern.

Liang Huanqing's nerves that had been tense for a day were only slightly relaxed, and when the prince was staggering with the guests in the mansion, she let Yuebai watch in the Linlang Garden, and she rested on the bed railing in the house for a while.

"I don't feel tired right now." She didn't know what Qi Jingqin was going to do, so she said.

After hearing this, Qi Jingqin got up and put down the bed curtains and Yingluo that were held up by gold hooks on both sides of the bed rail, stretched out his hand to Liang Huanqing, and smiled at two tiger teeth that were not too obvious.

Liang Huanqing didn't know what he was going to do, so he looked at him with a puzzled expression: "What's wrong?" ”

"Do you want to put lanterns?" Qi Jingqin said with a smile.

He once saw Liang Huanqing put down a lantern on the painting boat that night in Shangyuan, the lantern was swaying on the lake, he could see the heaviness of her eyes, contrary to the usual lively and naughty eldest lady, and later sent someone to salvage hundreds of lanterns on the lake, recognized the one she wrote by hand, and understood the story on it.

"Lanterns?" Liang Huanqing asked.

Before she could ask more, Qi Jingqin pushed open the window, stepped out with one foot, sat on the window railing and stretched out his hand to Liang Huanqing: "Come, this king is supporting you." ”

Liang Huanqing was eager to try it as soon as he heard about the lanterns, but he looked out the door with some concern, and the shadows had not yet left.

"It's okay, the candle will be lit all night until dawn, and they won't find out when the curtain is lowered." Qi Jingqin saw her worries, and comforted with a smile, "It's getting late, I can't hear any movement, and Miss Rao is Qin will also persuade them to go back." Do not worry. ”

Liang Huanqing hesitated for a while, put his hand firmly on his palm, and the two looked at each other, and all the gossip in the world could not intrude.

Qi Jingqin led her, bypassed the guards of the palace all the way, ran out of the Linlang Garden, passed through the gardenia forest, passed the light pavilion on the road, and ran through the Huatang of today's worship hall, where the red carpet has not been removed, dozens of wine jars are placed on the ground, the firecracker crumbs outside the palace and the petals of the ladies are still there, a large group of servants are cleaning overnight, and after dawn, it is the majestic and solemn Jingwang Mansion.

They walked through the noisy crowd, ran out of the palace, and the minions who cleaned the wedding banquet all buried their heads in doing things without noticing, Liang Huanqing felt free and happy the more she ran, she laughed out a laugh like a silver bell, and after running for a while, she slowly stopped: "No, the prince... I'm so tired..."

Qi Jingqin turned his head, looked at her for a while, then reached out to remove the phoenix crown and golden hairpin on her head, and took off the bracelet she was wearing. ”

They ran out of the door without permission, others couldn't find out, the palace guards naturally followed all the way, they saw the princess and princess throw away the priceless jewelry at will, so they picked it up and put it away with black lines on their faces, if they were found the next day, Concubine Mei would have to reprimand the prince.

Qi Jingqin naturally knew that someone was so unscrupulous when he followed.

When all the gold, silver, and jewelry were gone, they continued their way to the lake.

Tonight's Shangjing City was quiet and peaceful, and the people who had been partying for a day went home early to rest according to the curfew, leaving only the officers and soldiers of Jingzhao Mansion patrolling back and forth on the streets.

When he was approaching the lake, Qi Jingqin took out a cloth from his sleeve and said to Liang Huanqing, "Cover your eyes." ”

Seeing that he is so skillful, it seems that he has been prepared for a long time.

Liang Huanqing didn't know what she meant, but she was also willing to listen to Qi Jingqin's arrangement, and tied the cloth with suspicion, and suddenly fell into darkness, which made Liang Huanqing a little flustered, she stretched out her hand and rubbed in the dark: "Lord Wang..."

Qi Jingqin smiled, hugged her from behind, held her shoulder, and whispered in her ear, "Don't worry, I'm here." ”

Qi Jingqin slowly helped Liang Huanqing to the lake, and a luxurious painting boat had already been parked by the lake, with countless lamps and potted flowers.

He helped Liang Huanqing to slowly board the painting boat, Liang Huanqing felt the ground shake, and grabbed Qi Jingqin's palm tightly with some fear: "Lord Wang... I..."

Qi Jingqin smiled and clenched her hand tightly: "Don't be afraid. ”

When the two of them sat down in the painting boat, the boatman who had already arranged it slowly rocked the painting boat to the center of the lake.

There are dozens of small painting boats parked in the middle of the lake, with warm lamps on, and a boatman and a merchant girl sitting on each of them.

For a time, the dark and fluctuating lake surface was like an endless night, the lanterns were like stars, and the meandering moat began from this lake and flowed into a galaxy on earth.

"Lord Wang, can you take it off?" Liang Huanqing seemed to hear a trace of movement, and couldn't help but be curious, so he asked.

Qi Jingqin looked at the lake, it was as beautiful as he thought, he took off the cloth on Liang Huanqing's eyes with his own hands, and whispered in her ear: "Okay." ”

Liang Huanqing slowly opened his eyes, and what caught his eyes was the surface of the lake like a galaxy, with lotus lamps blooming on the surface of the lake, lingering gracefully.

Her eyes were attracted by this lotus lamp, and she unconsciously burst into tears, and at this time, her pair of beautiful eyes also became a galaxy, competing with the sky and the stars on the lake.

She looked at Qi Jingqin, covered her mouth and didn't want to cry, but her eyes unconsciously flowed two lines of tears, her voice trembled, and she asked in disbelief: "Lord Wang, this..."

"Yours." Qi Jingqin smiled and wiped away her tears, took out two delicate lotus lanterns from the boat, which said a hundred years of good harmony, he handed one to Liang Huanqing, and said, "Do you want to put one?" ”

Liang Huanqing sniffed, nodded, and smiled: "Yes." ”

She took the lotus lantern, squatted down slowly with her skirt, put the lotus lantern in the water, put her hand into the water to block the ripples, and pushed the lotus lantern to float into the distance.

A lotus lantern floated over, and she accidentally saw the inscription on it - May my wife Huanqing be safe and happy for the years.

She was stunned, and when she raised her eyes to look at the other lotus lanterns, there was the same fly-headed small block written on it, and she recognized that it was the handwriting of the prince.

There are thousands of lotus lanterns on the lake, each lotus lantern is inscribed by his own hand, and he writes the wish into the lotus lantern by hand, she seems to be able to see, in the middle of the night when no one is around, he stayed up for a few nights to write this series of blessings on the lotus lantern seriously, just for the surprise of this night.

Liang Huanqing's heart melted instantly, and her tears couldn't stop flowing.

No matter how usual it is, how many misunderstandings have there been, in this vast world, Liang Huanqing just wants to stay with the person beside him at this moment.
