Chapter 35 Shangyuan Festival

On the Shangyuan Festival, the palace garden is lit up with all kinds of lanterns, these lanterns are mostly dedicated to the place, bringing together the folk from all over the country, various styles, and illuminating the entire imperial garden with all kinds of brilliance. This was originally a day of joy with the people, and many ministers' families also entered the palace by the emperor's grace to celebrate the festival with the descendants of the heavenly family. Naturally, there was nothing to do with the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei, but Kang Yufei thought of a surprise, so he still cheered up and came to the Imperial Garden early.

Unexpectedly, the emperor also arrived early and was playing chess with someone to pass the time.

It's better to pick up the day than to hit the sun, this miserable thing is today.

Kang Yufei stepped forward and made a big salute to the emperor, "Courtier Kang Yufei see Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live." ”

"Yo, I said which child is so well-behaved, it turns out that our Yufei has changed her temperament." The emperor quipped, and seemed to be in high spirits.

"The courtiers have been taught a lot by the prince in the past few days, so naturally they should be sensible."

The emperor sent away the people who were playing chess, and summoned Kang Yufei to the front to speak, "You said that the prince taught you a lesson?" How was it taught? ”

"Chasing, catching up with the lesson, and letting the courtiers think about it behind closed doors."

"You said the prince did this to you?" The emperor laughed, probably as a little awkward for the juniors.

"Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can ask Concubine Mei Niangniang......"

"This Jinglin, I will make the decision for you and teach him a good lesson."

"It's okay for the courtiers to suffer some grievances, but I'm afraid that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be angry with the Beihou Mansion. Your Majesty, His Royal Highness doesn't allow people from the Zhenbei Hou Mansion to enter the palace to enjoy the lanterns, it's too stingy. Kang Yufei tugged at the emperor's sleeve like a little daughter. Coquettish, crying miserably, Kang Yufei has always been very good.

Although the emperor was still smiling, the smile on his face seemed to freeze, but when he turned around, he still smiled brightly, "You can't blame the prince, your second brother and third brother, one has no official position, and the other official position is too small, how can he enter the palace." ”

Although this is a momentary change, Kang Yufei sees the truth, and the second brother and the third brother, isn't the emperor sick and ignoring political affairs? How did he know that his second brother was in Beijing, and his third brother had been released.

"Also, Kang Yuche's matter, it's still ...... after all" The emperor abruptly broke off the conversation and paused, "He's so noisy, I'm afraid that if he enters the palace, plus you, I'm going to make a fuss here." The emperor laughed heartily.

Kang Yufei's heart was like a big stone falling, and it kept sinking. The emperor just said something, the matter of the third brother, after all, is it still rooted in the hearts of the emperor and the prince? I thought that the emperor had no psychology for these trivial matters, but now that I think about it, I am afraid that the prince has already told the emperor about the details.

Originally, Kang Yufei prayed in his heart that he could be relied on by the emperor and protect the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, but it seemed in vain. No wonder the second sister-in-law kept persuading herself not to enter the palace, saying that the father and son of the heavenly family in this palace must have one heart to embarrass the Beihou Mansion, otherwise how could the prince be unscrupulous. Now that I think about it, I didn't listen to the advice and had to go against everyone's wishes, how stupid it was.

But she clenched her back molars, knowing that she must not show such a desperate and sad gesture.

"Well, Jinglin is here, let's settle accounts with him."

Kang Yufei turned around and didn't look up at him, but just saluted the color.

"Look at it, Jinglin, what did you scare people Yufei into."

"Your Majesty, it's the courtier's fault, I haven't understood the rules after entering the palace for a long time, it's all the courtier's fault." When Kang Yufei thought of the future of himself and the Hou Mansion of Zhenbei, his heart was really sour.

"Oh, Yufei, let's ignore him, when did the rules in this palace frame you. Get up, get up. I'll go with you to enjoy the lanterns, and we'll ignore him. ”

The emperor picked Kang Yufei up, Kang Yufei cheered up, pretended to smile happily, and followed the emperor into the sea of lights.

The prince exhaled, and the cough he had endured just now came up again, and his coughing heart was about to jump out.

"Your Highness." Zhao Baojiang helped him to sit down and smoothed his back.

Before he could figure out how to face her, the prince was inevitably flustered. I thought I would feel very angry when we met again, and I would be ruthless about her. But as soon as I saw her smile, even if it wasn't for herself, the tingling and sore feeling in her chest made the hatred in her heart disappear.

Whether it's true or not, in this life, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape the catastrophe of Kang Yufei.

Kang Yi didn't expect so many people, crowded and crowded, so that she didn't have time to look at these lanterns carefully, and her mind was full of "Where is the surprise?" When she was worried that she was about to fall, a pair of arms held her steadily, and said softly behind her, "Be careful." ”

The voice made her feel uncomfortable, and she hurriedly pushed her arm away, turned around, and still didn't look at him, "Thank you, Your Highness the Prince." "Hurried through the crowd and walked away.

The prince's chest ached again, and he coughed violently, causing the people around him to gather around him with concern.

Kang Yufei suddenly felt that his wrist was grabbed, and he was dragged several steps before he realized that it was Yi Min. "This kung fu is really completely gone, and even you can't get rid of it."

Yi Min smiled brightly, "Cut, even if you were skilled four years ago, you can't get rid of me." However, you can be regarded as getting rid of the prince, and I don't know what his intentions are, and I have been with you for a long time. “

"Of course, I'm afraid that I will collude with the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei." Kang Yufei turned around and looked, the prince was surrounded by people, and he couldn't get out for a while. "Yi Min, did you find it?"

Yi Min smiled and nodded, "As far as the third brother's craftsmanship is concerned, it's too easy to find." ”

The two of them picked up a small path and walked towards a pile of unobtrusive lanterns, looking at this simple lotus lantern, and almost couldn't straighten up with a smile. This must have cost the third brother a lot of money to fix it, otherwise how could such an ugly lamp be qualified to hang in the imperial garden.

"It's really easy to recognize."

Yi Min shook his head with a smile and took the lamp down, "This way, I'm embarrassed to think that it was sent in by the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, but look at this." She turned the lamp around, and the riddle on it read, "Three horizontal and one vertical, one heart." “

"Jade characters?" Even the lantern riddle is so simple, where is the third brother to send a surprise, I'm afraid he is hiding other thoughts, "Take down the lamp and take a look." ”

Yi Min turned away from the lotus flower, and sure enough, there was a small scroll hidden inside. There is a sentence on the scroll, "Where is the fire?" “

Kang Yufei laughed happily, life is the most relaxed and happy only by fighting wits and courage with the third brother.

Yi Min also looked at her and smiled, "Tell him quickly, he even has the heart to die." ”

"I can't let him get what he wants. The fire that I said was mine to be. By the way, this lotus lantern is going to be put in the canal, right? ”

"Yes." Yi Min suddenly realized, "Third brother is afraid that he is waiting for your letter outside." ”

"Then let's go find a pen and paper and let him die of this heart. Hahahaha. ”

At this moment, Kang Yufei seemed to forget that there was such a person as the prince in the world, he watched her laugh from a distance, and watched her mess with others.

When he approached, the smile on Kang Yufei's face was clean.

"Father is looking for you everywhere." The prince spoke, seeing that she still didn't want to look up at herself, "You have to go and light a lotus lantern." ”

"The courtiers retired."

"Wait, my father asked me to find you and go with me."

She still didn't look up, and nodded on her knees.

"You're going to ignore me for the rest of your life?" The prince asked.

"Don't dare."

"You ......" The prince took a step back with every step forward.

The prince laughed dryly, sighed, and walked straight forward. Kang Yufei followed behind, mastering the distance very well, so that he couldn't reach himself, and when he turned around, he could see himself again at a glance.

The prince suddenly stopped, and when he saw that she was far away from him, he also stopped. He took two large steps and grabbed her hand. She was reluctant and struggled desperately.

"In front of my father and everyone, do you want you and me to be ugly?"

She thought about it for a moment, but she still obeyed him.

"Why are your hands always so cold, you can't even cover them?" The prince took her hand and walked very slowly.

"It's not good to keep the emperor waiting."

The prince grabbed her hand tightly, as if he wanted to give her the warmth in his palm, so he was still not at ease, he dragged her to his side and held her tightly in his arms.

Kang Yufei felt extremely disgusting, and struggled to push his arms away, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't have to pretend, it's too fake after the play." ”

"Fake? Pretending? "The prince just thinks that her body is cold, and he is afraid that she will suffer from the cold, is this an excessive thing?" Sooner or later, you will be my person, so you don't want to eat oil and salt, aren't you fake? Then why did you enter the palace in the first place? Isn't it just to marry me? ”

Yes, why did you enter the palace in the first place? What a stupid thing, now she Kang Yufei doesn't have the face to answer this question.

"The courtier's daughter is unwell, ...... first"

The prince was still holding her hand, "Where are you going?" You are not allowed to go anywhere. ”

Kang Yufei calmed down, knowing that he and the prince were having a hard time, and they would not be able to get any benefit at all. eased his emotions, and then spoke, "The courtiers dare not disobey His Royal Highness the Prince, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not have to be like this, Your Majesty, we are polite, and everyone is better." ”

The prince thought about it and let go of his hand, "I just want to...... Forget it, my father is still waiting, and I don't want to quarrel with you...... Let's go. ”

The royal garden was full of laughter, and the warblers sang and danced, covering the gloomy faces of the two of them.
