Chapter Twenty-Seven: Tanabata Together

After Zong Zhengjin and Yi Chu returned to the princess's mansion in the evening, Zong Zhengmin suddenly ran over and said that he wanted to stay here for a while. Originally, Zong Zhengjin disagreed, but under his soft grinding and hard bubbles, coupled with Yi Chu's nod of agreement, Zong Zhengjin had no choice but to allow it. And because of Yi Chu's agreement, Zong Zhengmin has regarded him as a brother since then, and calls him a good brother at every turn, although Yi Chu has not dealt with him.

Zong Zhengmin's long stay brought laughter to the princess's mansion, but at the same time, it also brought endless trouble to Zhao Qing, these five princes were teasing her all the time, making her unable to say her bitterness, and she was afraid to express her anger. In the end, if the princess hadn't personally reprimanded Zong Zhengmin, I'm afraid that she, Zhao Qing, would have jumped into the Yellow River to prove her innocence.

......

Zong Zhengmin's stay is three months, and in a blink of an eye, it is the Qixi Festival, which is a rare and lively festival. On this day, the streets will be noisy from morning to midnight, and there will be lanterns and games in the evening. So after hearing these funny things, Zong Zhengmin's idle temperament fell into trouble with Zong Zhengjin again.

"Sister Huang, you stay in the mansion all day to deal with affairs, aren't you bored?" Jong Jung-min persuaded the side. Zong Zhengjin looked at the affairs in his hand and jokingly said, "Only you will be bored."

"Sister Huang, I'm thinking about you, this is a rare Qixi Festival, don't you want to meet a beautiful young man at the lantern festival, and then come to fate for three lives?"

"Okay, Ah Min, you dare to tease me." Zong Zhengjin glared at him angrily, but Yi Chu's face appeared in his mind, if he could spend Qixi with him, what a beautiful thing it would be!

Zong Zhengjin's heart made a small calculation, she looked at Zong Zhengmin's eyes full of expectation, smiled lightly, and said: "Okay, since you want to go out, then call Shang Xiaoqing and a few of them to go together, I haven't been out for a long time."

"Great, I'll go get ready." Hearing that Zong Zhengjin agreed, Zong Zhengmin was very excited, and ran out to find Zhao Qing and them. Seeing his appearance, Zong Zhengjin shook her head helplessly, she had no intention of doing it again, put down the pen in her hand, she pondered for a while, then got up and went out and walked towards Qingfeng Courtyard.

"Sir." As soon as she entered the door, she saw Yi Chu writing something with her head buried in her head. Yi Chu raised his head when he heard the sound, and saw her standing at the door in green clothes. He asked, slightly surprised, "Why are you here now?" Is something wrong?" As he spoke, he walked towards her.

Zong Zhengjin walked in and said in a gentle voice, "No, just ask if you're free tonight?"

"It should be fine, what? Is there anything wrong with you?" Yi Chu's deep eyes looked at her, Zong Zhengjin's heart suddenly beat violently as if she had missed a beat, she hurriedly shifted her gaze, really, now she didn't dare to look directly into Yi Chu's eyes, for fear that he could see the little secret in her heart, and she didn't dare to expose her careful thoughts about him now.

Zong Zhengjin settled down and said: "Ah Min said that today is the Qixi Festival, and he wants to ask us all to go out to play, I think we have been busy recently, so it is better to relax today, so I also want to ask you to go out for a walk." After speaking, he peeked at him again, and saw that he had no intention of refusing, so he was a little relieved, you must know that Yi Chu used to dislike these festivals the most!

Yi Chu had a little struggle in his heart, he really didn't like these festivals, but seeing Ah Jin's expectant face, he couldn't bear to refuse. After thinking for a while, he nodded lightly and replied, "Okay, I'll go out for a walk with you that night."

"Ah, that's great, I'll tell someone to get ready right away." Zong Zhengjin is really happy, she can really spend the Qixi Festival with Yi Chu, "Then I'll go back first." Without waiting for Yi Chu to nod, Zong Zhengjin turned around excitedly and ran out, just like Zong Zhengmin's appearance just now.

Seeing that Zong Zhengjin had walked away, Yi Chu returned to his seat and prepared to continue writing, but Zong Zhengjin's bright smile appeared in his mind, Yi Chu's face was gradually dyed with a layer of sadness, and the hand holding the pen suddenly lost the strength to write again.

In the evening, the lights came on, and after the princess's mansion and her party dressed up simply, they went to the market. Because most of the people had never seen Princess Jinyang's true face, they didn't cause any panic. It's just that Zong Zhengjin and Yi Chu's stunning looks have made many young men and women turn back, and so many eyes around them make Yi Chu have an urge to go back. But seeing Zong Zhengjin so happy, he could only endure it.

Zong Zhengjin is wearing a pink plum pattern streamer cloud smoke long skirt today, with black hair curled up, and only two bright moon hairpins inserted, such a simple dress can't hide her extravagance and bright color. Yi Chu still followed her closely in a white robe, there were so many people on this street, if she was not careful, she would be scattered.

Zong Zhengjin's afterglow caught a glimpse of Yi Chu protecting herself by her side, not to mention how sweet it was, and a smile slowly unfolded on her face, at this time she had no intention of watching the lanterns, her eyes were full of Yi Chu's figure, and Zong Zhengjin felt that she had completely fallen.

Compared with the quietness here, Zong Zhengmin's side is much more lively, I saw him wearing a coquettish pink robe, a pair of good-looking peach blossom eyes are discharging everywhere, I don't know how many girls are fascinated by him. But if you look closely, his left hand is still tightly grasping a woman, who is wearing a light blue skirt, and her delicate little face is full of depression.

Zhao Qing wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to come out today to have a good time, but she was caught by Zong Zhengmin when she went out, and he also said that this was to prevent her from getting lost. Even if Zhao Qing has a good quality, she wants to scold people at this time, Nanxu and Dongping originally wanted to save Mohe, but as soon as they saw these lively scenes, they immediately left Zhao Qing behind. Zhao Qing's complaining eyes shot at Zong Zhengmin countless times, but Zong Zhengmin didn't seem to feel it, he still excitedly pulled her to look around, and asked her from time to time if she ate snacks, Zhao Qing's anger was difficult to vent, she really wanted to eat this coquettish and shameless five princes now, and it was a big way to eat it.

Zong Zhengjin and Yi Chu walked to the original river, looking at the colorful river lanterns flowing in the river, Zong Zhengjin pulled Yi Chu's sleeve on a whim and said, "Sir, let's go put the river lanterns."

Yi Chu looked at her little hand pulling her sleeve in surprise, and for some reason there was a trace of inexplicable emotion in her heart. Zong Zhengjin followed his gaze and found that she was pulling his sleeve, she hurriedly let go of her hand, her face flushed, and she was very embarrassed.

Seeing her like this, Yi Chu's mood suddenly improved, and he chuckled: "Let's go, go put the lights." Before Zong Zhengjin could react, Yi Chu had already taken the first step to buy the river lantern, and Zong Zhengjin immediately chased after coming back to his senses, with a smile in his eyes that could not be hidden.

After writing his wish, Zong Zhengjin carefully placed his river lamp in the river and let it flow down the river, thinking that this wish could be realized. Turning his head to see that Yi Chu also put the river lantern away, Zong Zhengjin's curiosity suddenly rose, and he asked in a low voice, "Sir, what wish did you write?"

"Doesn't it work if you say your wish?" Yi Chu replied lightly, Zong Zhengjin pursed his lips, it seems that Mr. will not tell her.

"Let's go, it's getting late, it's time to go back." Yi Chu stood up and pulled her up too.

"Huh? What about them?" Zong Zhengjin finally noticed that the others were gone, and the two looked around and found that they were long gone.

"It seems that they have gone elsewhere, don't worry, with the five princes here, they will be fine." Seeing Zong Zhengjin's worries, Yi Chu comforted him. Zong Zhengjin nodded, and then followed Yi Chu back.

The two walked side by side on this brightly lit street, one white and one pink looked particularly suitable, passers-by looked sideways, and the heart said that this pair of people was really eye-catching, and they were very worthy! Feeling the ambiguous gaze of everyone, Dongfang Hua's face turned crimson, fortunately, she couldn't see clearly at night, if it was during the day, she would be ashamed to death. Looking at Yi Chu again, his face was calm, as if he didn't notice everyone's gaze, and only concentrated on his path.

Suddenly, there was a sound in the crowd, several figures rushed over, Zong Zhengjin didn't know what was going on, he didn't know who pushed him, he suddenly leaned forward, and he was about to fall to the ground, suddenly a strong hand grabbed her in time, and after a whirlwind, she was taken to a person's arms, and after smelling the familiar orchid fragrance on the tip of her nose, her originally nervous heart quieted down.

But after she calmed down, she was shocked to realize that she was in Yi Chu's arms, feeling the temperature coming from his body, Zong Zhengjin only felt that his heart was beating faster, as if his heart would jump out when he opened his mouth.

Her little face instantly became so hot and red, but Yi Chu who was frightened didn't think of this, seeing Zong Zhengjin's stunned expression, Yi Chu thought she was frightened, and hurriedly asked nervously: "Ah Jin, how are you?" Are there any injuries?"

Hearing his call, Zong Zhengjin immediately came back to her senses, she quickly jumped out of his arms, and replied in a faint and trembling voice: "No, it's okay." Without the ruanyu warm fragrance in his arms, Yi Chu was slightly stunned, and then nodded: "That's good."

Pulling her to his side, Yunchen turned his head to look at the initiators, who had been subdued by the secret guards who were following Zong Zhengjin. "Who are you?" Yi Chu's cold eyes shot at them like knives, thinking to himself, could it be that he was sent by the Xu family again?

At this time, Zong Zhengjin also looked over, and saw a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl squatting on the ground, and four or five men, what kind of play is this!

A strong man in gray clothes raised his head and hurriedly said: "This son, the little one is the steward of the drunken Red Mansion, this girl wants to run, and the little one is also acting on orders, so she really doesn't have the intention to bump into this girl." As he spoke, he looked at Zong Zhengjin apologetically, and when he looked at it, he was completely stunned, he had grown so big, he had never seen such a stunning woman, and the Oiran of the Drunken Red Mansion was not as good as her. Seeing the strong man looking at Zong Zhengjin with squinting eyes, Yi Chu frowned, and his face became even more gloomy.
