Chapter 126: Lights by the River
Raise your hand and gently pat the other person's back to show reassurance.
Lan Yuwu cried to himself for a moment, forced himself to stop his voice, snorted and bowed again, and said, "Father, mother, please forgive the children for being unfilial, after so many years, we can only worship you secretly." But don't worry, my brother and I are fine, and we will be better in the future. ”
Listening to his words, Lan Baobao's heart was touched again.
The current Lan Yu is completely different from the Lan Yu she just saw when she arrived in the Northern Imperial Kingdom.
Blue Baby is becoming more and more curious about what happened to him to grow up so fast.
If he had been the same as before, he would never have said this with such confidence at this moment.
After worshipping their parents, the two siblings quickly put away the things on the forest and walked out of the woods with baskets.
The post station has already been cleared within a radius of five miles, so there is still no one around, and Er Rao is both sad and seems to be very relaxed.
Baby Sappa pondered for a moment and decided that she still wanted to ask.
"Yu'er, I have something to ask you."
Lan Yu saw that her face was full of seriousness, and a trace of evasion quickly flashed in her eyes.
Naturally, the blue baby did not ignore this fleeting emotion, and asked more firmly: "How are you doing in the Qingsi Palace?" Don't be perfunctory with me, answer honestly. ”
No matter what Lan Yu became, he was still very dependent on his brother in his heart, and when he saw his brother's face stiff, he subconsciously lowered his head, not knowing how to face it.
After a while, a slight voice sounded: "Brother, I'm doing well now, that's enough." ”
"Are you happy?" Baby Blue asked rhetorically.
Lan Yu was stunned by the question, and replied hesitantly: "I'm very happy to see my brother." ”
Blue Baby frowned unhappily, depending on the situation, Yu'er was unwilling to tell her the truth.
"Yu'er ......"
"Oh, Blue, you're really here." When the blue baby was about to ask again, Feng Wei's voice suddenly sounded not far away.
The two siblings were startled, and Lan Yu looked at Baby Blue worriedly.
In an instant, Feng Wei had already come to them.
"It turned out to be with Mr. Yu, but it made me look for it." Feng Wei smiled and nodded to Lan Yu, then looked at Lan Baobao and said, "Hurry up and go back with me, Your Highness is looking for you." ”
"What's wrong?" Blue Baby asked curiously.
Feng Wei laughed, "You also asked me what's wrong, you, as His Highness's close attendant, don't serve by His Highness's side, run outside to be happy, what kind of system do you become." ”
"Brother, go back quickly, don't make His Highness wait for a long time." Lan Yu hurriedly persuaded beside him.
Lan Baobao looked at him deeply, and after a few more words, he followed Feng Wei and left first.
Back in the inn room, Her Highness was sitting at the table drinking tea, his eyes swept slightly over her, and he couldn't see joy or anger.
On the way, Lan Baobao asked Feng Wei if something had happened, because she had informed His Highness before going out, and Feng Wei also knew about it. Now he suddenly came over and told her to go back, and he didn't blame her for thinking too much.
But Feng Wei didn't have anything to do, he was afraid that she would go out for too long and be bumped into by others.
Lan Baobao was right to think about it, but after thinking about it again, Feng Wei saw Lan Yu just now, and there were unused incense candles in the basket Yu'er was carrying, although it was covered with a cloth, but she didn't pay attention to the situation at that time, whether there was anything coming out of the cloth.
After all, she and Yu'er's life experience is to avoid people, in case they are seen to have any clues, once they are exposed as sinners, they are afraid that the consequences will be worse.
Moreover, when they seized power at the beginning, the Lan family and the Ling Wangfu were on opposite sides, and perhaps the Lan family later declined, and King Ling was somewhat involved.
In short, no matter what the situation is, she must be careful.
His Royal Highness didn't say a word about her going out, didn't ask where she went, didn't ask who she was with, and really didn't care.
But the more this is the case, the more apprehensive the blue baby becomes, probably because he is too weak-hearted.
In the evening, the people set out for the moat.
The tower of the city wall has already been arranged, and the emperor and queen have taken all the nobles to sit on it, and there are melons, fruits, snacks and drinks in front of them.
Overhead, the night sky was shining brightly, and the moon was very clear.
The two sides of the moat at your feet are full of people, and while putting the river lanterns, you also want to see the demeanor of the nobles.
However, the city wall is too high, even if there are lights and bright moons, you can only roughly see the silhouette of the figure. It is a great honor for the people to come.
For the sake of safety, all the noble lamps were taken by the servants around them and put them by the river.
Seeing that people were already going down one after another, Lan Baobao took His Highness's river lantern and was about to call Feng Wei together, but His Highness pointed to another lamp and said, "Take it." ”
The river lanterns are all made by the court craftsmen, and they are distributed according to the status of each noble, and the shape and material of the lamps are also different.
On the side of King Ling's Mansion, according to the rule, only His Royal Highness and Feng Wei are qualified to take the lamp, and it just so happens that when the lamp is issued, there is an extra one here.
Lan Baobao thought that someone else was deliberately currying favor with His Highness, but when she went down to the city tower with two lamps in her hands, Feng Wei quietly told her that this lamp was prepared for her by His Highness.
At that moment, Lan Baobao didn't know what kind of mood she was in, but she was really shocked, and she never expected His Highness to be so intimate.
Suddenly, she felt that the extra lamp in her hand was very heavy, and she clenched it hard, for fear that it would be lost by the crowd.
There are really a lot of people below, if it weren't for Feng Wei opening the way in front, she would definitely not be able to squeeze in.
The two of them finally squeezed to the shore, found a few steps and walked down, put the lamp in the water on the surface of the river, and gently pushed, and the lamp flowed with the water into the distance.
Blue Baby clasps his hands and closes his eyes to make a wish.
Feng Wei watched from the side, laughing at her childishness, today's river lantern is to commemorate the ancestors of the deceased, and it is not the Lantern Festival to pray for blessings.
Baby Blue gave him a "you don't understand" look.
After putting out the river lanterns, they did not rush to leave, standing by the water and watching the scenery in the river.
The endless moat is illuminated by thousands of river lights, and in the colorful light, those various river lights are like densely woven human flows, and the long river is a street, which is very spectacular.
"Brother Feng, look at that river lantern, it doesn't look like a Fuwa, it's chubby and cute." Suddenly, the blue baby pointed to the middle of the river with great interest.
Feng Wei looked in the direction of her finger, looked for the lamp that he found her for a while, and corrected with a smile: "That's the good wealth boy." ”
As soon as his words landed, a huge sensation suddenly sounded on the shore, and the two looked back to find that the already crowded flow of people was being dispersed and driven away by the two teams.
"It's Yu Linwei." Feng Wei's face sank, and he immediately ran to the case.
Blue Baby followed, but the situation on the shore was really chaotic, and Feng Wei was squeezed back before he could go up.
If it weren't for Feng Wei's quick reaction and quick grabbing her wrist, it is estimated that she would have rolled down the stairs and fell into the river.
"It's dangerous." She sat on the ground to calm down, and when some of the people saw her like this, they did not dare to run to the shore.
"Brother Feng, what's going on?" When the blue baby calmed down, he stood up against the ground.
Feng Wei was still on tiptoe observing the situation on the shore, and replied without looking back: "It sounds like he's arresting someone, is there an assassin?" ”
The situation on the shore was so chaotic that the people were driven to take shelter.
At this time, the blue baby faintly heard a woman's scream, as if shouting words like "child, my child".
The place where the blue baby stood was relatively low, and even if he stood on tiptoe, he could barely see the dense overhead on the shore, like a raging tide, scattered in all directions.
"Child, he is there, my child is there, he has fallen, I am going to ...... him"
This time, the blue baby was sure that there was really a woman shouting, and at the same time, she caught a glimpse of what appeared to be a white figure cutting through the crowd, running frantically towards the bridge not far away.
Immediately afterward, there was a sonorous sound of footsteps, as well as the shouts of Yu Linwei evacuating the crowd.
The scene became more and more chaotic, and many people were already squeezed down, but fortunately they only ran down the stairs connecting to the river, and there was no overboard.
The blue baby's side was soon crowded, and she clung to Feng Wei's robe and stood on the shore with difficulty.
The eyes kept looking for the white figure that passed by just now, and the woman was still shouting frantically, but because she was getting farther and farther away, she couldn't hear what she was shouting.
The blue baby searched for a moment, and found again that the white shadow had run up the bridge.
"Brother Feng!" Lan Baobao suddenly sensed that the situation was not good, and pulled Feng Wei hard.
As soon as her words landed, the woman in white had already crossed the stone bridge and jumped directly into the river.
The people on the bridge were all frightened by her crazy actions, and no one dared to stop them when they saw the woman jumping into the river.
After the woman fell into the river, she waved her arms to push away the surrounding river lanterns, and swam wildly in one direction.
Blue Baby looked at it, and there was a river lantern in that direction, which was the good money boy she and Feng Wei had just discussed.
The river lantern is very realistic, and it looks cute against the backdrop of the firelight, just like a real child.
Did she mistake the river lantern for her own child?
"Brother Feng, do you think that woman is a little familiar?" The blue baby looked at the woman in the river in horror.
Feng Wei also looked at the river, nodded and replied: "It is indeed familiar, and it also alarmed Yu Linwei, I'm afraid it's ......."
He didn't finish his sentence, but both of them already had the answer in their hearts.
At this time, the Yulin guards who pushed away the crowd and chased after them had already jumped into the river to save people.
The scene was like dumplings, and soon the river was covered with figures.
The woman in white finally grabbed the river lamp of the good fortune boy, pulled it and saw that it was a dummy, and was immediately struck and broke down and screamed.
"Ah...... My child, my child......"
As soon as she shouted two sentences, the woman tripped over something under her feet, and the whole person threw herself into the river in an instant.
Blue Baby's hand tightened again, swallowed his saliva hard, shook his feet twice, and almost couldn't help jumping down to save people.
On the surface of the river, you can see the splash of the woman as she splashes underwater, but she does not come to the surface for a long time.
Before Yulin Wei, who was closest to her, had time to grab her hand, the woman suddenly fell to the bottom of the river.
The people on the shore were so frightened by this scene that they didn't dare to move, and later two teams of Yulin guards came over and directly blocked this section of the river.
"Blue, you go back to the city tower first." Feng Wei turned around and explained to the blue baby.
The blue baby hesitated slightly, but after seeing the solemn expression on the other party's face, he nodded.
Pushing aside the dense crowd, she walked back with difficulty, and met a few palace people who also came down to put lights on the way, and everyone automatically gathered together when they saw each other, and slowly returned to the city tower.
