The word freedom is easy to say, but in such a place, it is even more difficult to pursue.

Liang Chu's heart jumped, pursed his lips and did not speak.

Mu Ling knew that this had touched his bottom line, and he didn't ask anymore.

The surrounding palace people didn't dare to squeak, the two were silent all the way, and gradually Mu Ling saw some faint light in front of him.

Liang Chu stretched out his hand to signal the step to stop, and helped Mu Ling down without saying a word.

After taking two steps forward, Mu Ling felt that his eyes lit up, and a bright light flashed in his eyes.

In front of me was a long path that meandered into the distance.

On both sides of the path, there are regular square Kong Ming lanterns, which are originally small and faint lights, but such shadows are wrong together, but they are particularly comfortable.

It was a gloomy mood, but at this moment it was happy again.

"What is this?" Mu Ling's eyes widened and he walked forward unconsciously.

Liang Chu looked at her with a happy expression, and couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips: "Come here, today is the day to put out the lights and pray for blessings, and I found this place." ”

As for this careful arrangement, he never mentioned it.

Mu Ling was slightly moved in his heart, so he turned around and stopped waiting for him.

"What? Still don't know the way? ”

Liang Chu stared at her, only feeling that in this dim light, it was becoming more and more fascinating.

When did this woman start attracting his attention?

"The emperor loves to play with his concubines like this, since he has found this wonderful place, he still doesn't lead his concubines over?" Mu Ling tilted his head slightly, and a mischievous smile hung on the corner of his lips.

The estrangement between the two seems to have long since disappeared, and now they only have each other in their eyes.

Liang Chu suddenly had some illusions, or he would one day talk to her like this, and only live with her, which is also a wonderful rest of his life.

Stretching out his hand and leading Mu Ling all the way to the front, at the end of the road is a small pavilion, and a small bridge is built with bamboo outside the pavilion, stretching into the small river.

At this time, there were still some lotus lanterns fluttering in the small river.

The candle flame in the center illuminates the lotus flower, reflecting the red. This color looks even more wonderful in the dark night.

"Wow-"

Mu Ling couldn't help but exclaim, trotted two steps forward, and stood at the end of the Zhu Bridge.

Such an arrangement may sound rudimentary, but it takes a lot of thought to make it happen in this day and age. And having such a mind shows that Liang Chuchu still has some friendship for him in his heart.

It's just that these friendships of the emperor, how much can they read at a critical moment?

The light in front of me gradually blurred into a piece, as if in the void.

Liang Chu waved his hand behind him, and Feng Shou hurriedly handed over the two lanterns.

It's a very ordinary style, just the Danqing brush and ink depicted on it, but it can be seen that it is from Liang Chu's hand. In this way, the lantern is priceless.

"Since ancient times, people have written their wishes on the lanterns on the night of the New Year, and the lanterns can be released, so that the wish can be fulfilled in the coming year." Liang Chu walked over and handed her the lantern in his hand, "If you have any wishes, write them." ”

"Wish?" Mu Ling took the lantern and looked at Liang Chu fixedly.

Her eyes were filled with fog, as if she wanted to blend in with the night.

Liang Chu thought about her previous blunt desire to leave the palace, her expression couldn't help but stagnate, and she pursed her lips and said in a deep voice: "Don't think about leaving the palace, if Ah Ling wants to come out and have fun, just remember to go home." ”

Go home?

"I've always remembered that." Mu Ling lowered his head, his voice was a little low, but Liang Chu heard it clearly.

Only this sentence of 'remember to go home' made Liang Chu feel that the home in Mu Ling's heart must not be the palace.

"Ah Ling, you have entered the palace and married me, and the palace is your home." Liang Chu stepped forward and stroked her hair, "Where can I always think about my mother's family, I'm not a big girl anymore." ”

I always thought that if the queen mother knew about her mother's words, I was afraid that she would have to guard against Mu Ling again.

The concubine's maiden family is not so simple. What's more, now that Mu Ling is in a high position, Mu Shangshu has a remarkable position in the court, which is not to be underestimated.

If the concubine is only thinking about her mother's family, she is afraid of the hidden danger of the dictatorship of her relatives, so she is afraid that she will be buried like this.

Mu Ling didn't think about it so much, and gradually came back to his senses: "Didn't you say that you want to write a wish?" The emperor didn't forget to take a pen, right? ”

"Of course, there is." Liang Chu chuckled lightly and ordered Feng Shou to bring pen and ink.

"One person, one for you, I'll write mine."

Mu Ling took a pen and handed it to Liang Chu, then took another one, turned around and grabbed the lantern thoughtfully.

Liang Chu leaned over: "What do you want to write?" ”

"If it is a wish, it must be kept secret to be fulfilled, and if it is known, it will be fulfilled." Mu Ling tilted his head to look at him, a serious nonsense.

Making a wish is just to have peace of mind, and it is useless to pay attention to more.

Liang Chu glanced at the blank space and brought his lantern over: "I wrote it." ”

Mu Ling looked over, and a few big words of dragon flying and phoenix dancing jumped on the paper, which only made her heart skip a beat.

May Ah Ling always be by her side...... Is it?

Mu Ling lowered his head and smiled bitterly, he actually thought like this, but he didn't know how much sincerity he could make here, and how much happiness he could guarantee for the rest of her life?

"Ah Ling is not very satisfied with my wish?" Liang Chu suddenly spoke, holding her shoulder with one hand.

Mu Ling frowned in pain, and said with a reluctant smile: "Where do the concubines dare to put their beaks." ”

She was so polite and detached, which always made Liang Chu feel unhappy in his heart: "Other Ah Ling can put their beaks, but Ah Ling can't refute this point." ”

"But what's the use of keeping concubines like this?"

Mu Ling turned around with gloomy eyes and looked up at the night sky.

Now that the time has come, many people are flying lanterns. Lanterns of various shapes flew up from all directions and flew into the dark night sky.

Every lantern carries a good wish, whether it can be realized or not, it always makes people look forward to it.

Mu Ling suddenly felt something beautiful in his heart, lowered his head and wrote down his wishes, holding the lantern in both hands and preparing to let go.

"May the Seven Kings return safely? Heh-"

There was a chuckle behind him, with a slight anger, but it was well suppressed.

Mu Ling let go of his hand, and the lantern flew into the night sky. Mu Ling looked up at the lantern mixed with the others, and could no longer make out the recognition, so he turned around.

"Anyway, the concubine is a little guilty. And the seven kings are safe, and the border entry can be stable, and I hope the emperor doesn't mind. ”

Mu Ling smiled, very indifferent.

Yes, he doesn't mind, he just can't wait to order Liang Yan to be cut down now.

However, he looked at Mu Ling's somewhat confused eyes, but he suppressed this anger vigorously.
