Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Glass Lamp
Su Xiao nodded at the vendor, and asked Xue Lian curiously, "Are all the things here made by yourself?" β
Xue Lian thought for a while and said, "Not necessarily, sometimes it's okay to be idle, and the palace will take out some things for them and let them sell them." Of course, they will also make offerings to the palace, such as a one-hand-wide mat made of hemp rope that I recently received, which is very comfortable to lie on. β
Su Xiao patiently listened to Xuelian's description, while thinking, isn't that a cat scratching board? But the cat does seem to like this???
So as soon as this precedent was opened, the next idea was that it couldn't be blocked no matter how it was blocked. "Could it be that these kittens still like to sleep in cardboard boxes?"
Thinking of Wei Yuan's preference for sleeping in cardboard boxes, Su Xiao was inexplicably poked at the point of laughter. I couldn't stop being stunned. Looking around, he saw an old item on the stall in a stall specializing in selling antiques, Su Xiao pointed to the lantern and asked, "That's?" β
Xue Lian frowned: "You said that the glazed lotus lamp?" β
"Well, is that something rare?"
"It's normal for my sister not to know, if my sister wants to hear the story, just take this Qian Yu and ask. Why don't you let my brother tell you? β
Su Xiao looked at Wei Yuan when he heard this, and then said with a smile: "I'll ask myself."
I didn't want to, but I was a step too late, and when I was waiting for her to go, someone had already taken Qian Yu to buy the lantern. The owner of the lantern stall was a timid girl, and although she was a little scared, she still said little by little: "Well, according to the rules, if you buy a lantern, you must know the origin of this lantern." The so-called objects are ruthless and people are affectionate, and these things are the emotional sustenance of the owner's family...... So I have to ......."
The woman blinked, although she had a single eyelid, she was dexterous, her nose was a little powdery, and her cherry mouth was really a full Jiangnan. It's just that such a good beauty seems to be a mute, and after a few poses with the people around her, she agreed.
The stall owner smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "This lamp is actually a thousand years ago. That place is called Weiguo, and there is a princess in Weiguo, whose name is like a star. It is rumored that she also looks like a star in the sky, with a clever smile and beautiful eyes. There is not a single son in the Seven Kingdoms who doesn't like her, but she already has a sweetheart. This glass lamp was given to her by her sweetheart, meaning 'illuminating her future path'. But Princess Ruxing's future is not satisfactory, and it is even dark...... Until that day, there was a coup d'Γ©tat in Weiguo, and Princess Ruxing died at that time. But this lamp is forever remaining. β
The stall owner said that there was no emotion, but he also said that the woman's eyes were red, as if she had been hurt by something.
"But my lamp isn't real. The real lamp is in the hands of His Royal Highness Wei Yuan, so if you really buy it back, it will be a thought. β
The woman nodded, and went away with the servant. Leaving Su Xiao and the others standing in place, thinking that they couldn't affect other people's business, a few people also walked quickly.
"Lighting the way forward?" Su Xiao couldn't imagine how the princess Ruxing accepted this gift at that time, but now that she thinks about it, she also deeply feels his intentions.
That person really wants to take care of himself, right? It's a pity...... That coup d'Γ©tat made it all come to naught.
"Alas......".
Xue Lian hooked Su Xiao's finger and said with a smile: "Sister, don't sigh, we have arrived." β
