Chapter 220: Lantern Festival

"Fennel." She called softly and continued, "What do you think of Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess?" ”

Gu Qingwei didn't expect her to ask like this, and she didn't react for a while, and after a long time, she barely pulled out a smile and said, "What do you mean by this, eldest sister, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess has a noble status, how dare I judge it." Her gaze was a little evasive, and she didn't dare to look into Gu Jiuge's eyes, as if she was afraid to show her something.

Gu Jiuge frowned slightly, and continued to ask reluctantly: "It's just that you and I sisters say something considerate, and Your Highness won't know." You only said that if my brother is really interested in Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, what do you think of her being our sister-in-law? ”

The smile on Gu Qingwei's face became more and more reluctant when she heard this, and after a long time, she said: "It's good, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess has a charming appearance, a noble character, and a noble status, so she is naturally excellent." ”

She seemed to be answering some questions, as if she was deliberately avoiding something.

Gu Jiuge had some success in his heart, and he didn't continue to ask, but only smiled and said a few words haha, covering up this topic.

"Big sister, I suddenly remembered that there was still something to do in the courtyard, so I went back first. Tomorrow night when I go out to play at the Lantern Festival, sister, don't forget me. She took Gu Jiuge's hand and pretended to be relaxed, for fear that Gu Jiuge would see some flaws if she sat down again.

Gu Jiuge nodded and said, "Go ahead." ”

After she left, Gu Jiuge took a deep breath and frowned. Thinking of what happened to Fang Cai, the more she thought about it, the more panicked she became. Huiqiu seemed to see her worries, squatted down, and said softly, "What did Miss think?" ”

"You feel it too?" Gu Jiuge was shocked, grabbed her hand, and said, "Could it be my delusion, I always feel that Fen'er ......?"

Although she didn't continue, Huiqiu understood what she meant, lowered her head and thought for a long time, then she raised her head and said: "The third young lady has been wronged in the house since she was a child, and the eldest young master has always regarded her as a sister of a mother's compatriots. ”

Huiqiu said very tactfully, Gu Lisheng and Gu Qingwei are real brothers and sisters, and she didn't dare to think about some thoughts at all.

Gu Jiuge thought about it for a long time, exhaled lightly, and patted his head, "I'm really confused, what are you thinking about!" ”

"Okay, miss, I'm going out tomorrow night, but what do you have to prepare for the slave?" Eki changed the subject, drawing her attention back.

Gu Jiuge raised his chin, raised his eyebrows and said: "I don't have anything to prepare, but you, let me return the hosta, you always have to give someone Nantian an explanation, there are some things I always can't say." ”

Huiqiu was stunned for a moment, her eyes suddenly darkened, and she didn't say anything more.

The next day, the twilight will close, the street will be lively, the city is full of lanterns dazzling, this is a rare lively festival in the Dayue Dynasty, regardless of men, women and children will come out today to join in the fun, and be happy.

After dinner, Gu Shuyuan told Gu Lisheng to take good care of his younger sisters, and allowed them to go out. In fact, apart from Gu Qingwei, he didn't have anything to take care of. Gu Jiuge was accompanied by Mu Liang, and he didn't need him, Gu Qingxue would no longer participate in these appearances after her appearance was ruined. Yes, he also followed Gu Qingwei by his side.

As soon as he went out, Gu Jiuge was taken away by Mu Liang, and he didn't know what was going on, even Situ Luo and Zhao Qianqian didn't come to Gu Jiuge tonight, Mu Liang was happy and clean, and he could get along with Gu Jiuge.

Yesterday, Gu Jiuge said that Mu Wanyu didn't want to come out, but before leaving, he told him that it was better to go to the eldest princess's mansion to see it in person. Gu Lisheng thought about it for a while, but decided to go and see it for himself.

"An'er, you play by yourself for a while, and I'll go back when I go." Gu Lisheng said that he was also known as the person who served beside him, and he accompanied Gu Qingwei and wanted to protect her.

Gu Qingwei didn't say anything, she ran away away in a hurry, she wanted to chase after her, but the people left behind by Gu Lisheng looked at her, and she couldn't make any inappropriate moves, so she could only walk aimlessly on this lively street, hoping that Gu Lisheng would come back soon.

At the door of the eldest princess's mansion, Gu Lisheng hesitated for a long time and still couldn't take a step forward, at this time, maybe Mu Wanyu had already fallen asleep. It was really inappropriate for him to bother so rashly.

After standing for a while, he sighed and prepared to leave.

The door creaked open, and Yun Wei helped Mu Wanyu out slowly.

Looking at the bustling crowd, Mu Wanyu finally showed a light smile on her face. She raised her eyes, and her gaze was suddenly drawn by a tall figure. In the end, it is a person who has fought on the battlefield, dressed in a dark robe, with a long jade body, and a trace of fierceness around his body, which is difficult to ignore.

Yun Wei followed Mu Wanyi's gaze and saw Gu Lisheng at a glance, her heart was overjoyed, and she hurriedly shouted: "Gu Gongzi!" ”

Gu Lisheng turned his head when he heard the voice, but saw Mu Wanyi standing at the gate of the mansion, looking at him through the sea of people.

At that moment, it was difficult for Gu Lisheng to describe the feeling in his heart, that is, he felt that one of his hearts suddenly beat violently, and then slowly calmed down, and after a while, it suddenly became sharp again.

At that time, he didn't know that the distant sight in the sea of people was the heartbeat that he could hardly find for the rest of his life.

It wasn't until Mu Wanyu came to him that Gu Lisheng came to his senses, and before he could speak, a gentle smile overflowed from his eyebrows.

"The minister has seen Her Royal Highness the Princess." He took a half-step back and bowed.

Mu Wanyi smiled lightly and said softly: "Gu Gongzi doesn't have to be polite. ”

"Gu Gongzi, our Royal Highness is rarely interested in going out for a walk, but I haven't returned for a few years, and the city is a lot stranger, I wonder if Gu Gongzi is willing to lead our Highness to play together?" Yun Wei looked at Gu Lisheng and asked with a chuckle.

Gu Lisheng stood there stunned, came back to his senses in Yunwei's laughter, and said respectfully: "It's the honor of the minister." ”

He said and turned sideways slightly, walked side by side with Mu Wanyi, and walked into the depths of the crowd.

On the street, I don't know why, this year's lantern festival seems to be particularly lively.

The clothes are fragrant and the sideburns are lingering.

"Your Highness, the minister hasn't been back to the royal city for five years, but he just listened to the song and said something. I heard that every year to this day, the royal envoy will send two painting boats to stop on the lake, and those young ladies and sons can chant poems on the painting boat, which is very elegant. Gu Lisheng said something interesting to Mu Wanyi as he walked.

Mu Wanyi just listened with a smile, and occasionally answered him once or twice.

Yun Wei fell half a step behind the two of them, and was also dazzled by the lanterns on the street.

"The most interesting thing about the Lantern Festival every year is probably the ring in the east of the city." Gu Lisheng said as he stretched out his hand to support Mu Wanyu behind him, for fear that she would be touched.

Xu is this lively atmosphere infected her, Mu Wanyi's face was dyed with a hint of joy, hearing Gu Lisheng say this, she was also curious, raised her eyes to look at him, and asked with a smile: "What's so important about this ring?" ”

"This ring is about archery, and it is open to both men and women. Contestants must shoot three arrows at a wooden turntable that rotates 100 paces away. There are a total of twelve flower balls on the turntable, and only one flower ball is hidden under the concentric lock that has been enshrined in the Yuelao Temple for a year. Gu Lisheng said with a smile, he never believed in these things before, but now he thinks it seems to be very interesting.

Mu Wan Yiming turned around, nodded, and praised, "It's really interesting." ”

"Your Highness, there are a lot of lanterns there, maybe the slave maid goes to take a look?" As the two were talking, they saw Yun Wei come forward, holding Mu Wanyu, pointing to a place and asking expectantly.

Mu Wanyu looked over, and sure enough, she saw a lot of lanterns hanging on the stall, all of which were very eye-catching and beautiful.

"Go ahead." Mu Wanyu said softly, Yun Wei has been by her side all these years, and when she was a teenager, she had to accompany her like an old monk. Today she is rarely happy, and Mu Wanyu naturally complies in every way.

"Your Highness, let's go over and have a look."

The two men followed, stopping in front of the lantern stall. The boss who sold the lanterns saw at a glance that the two of them were extraordinary, and said with a smile: "This son, buy a lantern and give it to his wife." ”

As soon as his voice fell, Gu Lisheng and the others blushed, for fear of ruining Mu Wanyi's reputation, he hurriedly waved his hand and explained: "The boss misunderstood. ”

The boss sighed meaningfully, and no longer bothered with this question, and continued to introduce his lanterns.

Mu Wanyu looked at the lanterns, as if she was looking for something.

Gu Lisheng also looked at it for a long time before he asked, "Boss, can there be a lantern with Danmu flowers?" ”

Danmu is the nickname of gardenia.

The boss scratched his head and said apologetically: "This son, I'm really sorry, that gardenia was only opened in June and July, so I didn't paint it." Look at it again, I have peach blossoms, plum blossoms and orchids here, can you take a look at them again? ”

"It's okay, the plum blossoms are very good-looking, take a plum blossom lantern." Mu Wanyu said softly, in fact, she was looking for gardenia's lanterns. When the Queen Mother was alive, she liked Gardenia very much, so she gave her the name Late Gardenia.

Hearing Mu Wanyi say this, Gu Lisheng no longer insisted, put down the silver, and accompanied her to continue shopping.

"By the way, why didn't you see Sister Gu? Yesterday, she said she was going to invite me out to play, but today I didn't see anyone. Mu Wanyu suddenly remembered Gu Jiuge.

Gu Lisheng said with a smile: "I was picked up by the prince early, and we are not allowed to follow." ”

As he spoke, the two looked at each other and smiled.

Let's say that after Gu Jiuge and Mu Liang came out, they first went to the painting boat, but they only watched from a distance and did not go up. The two stood side by side, and they couldn't help but think of the present day of their previous lives.

On that day, Gu Jiu Ge cleared the heavy fat powder, and shocked the audience, who knew that Gu Qingxue tripped her by stretching her feet, and who knew that she actually crashed into Mu Liang's arms.

This collision is inexplicable.
