Text Chapter 66: The Last of the Last

Chapter 66

The Chinese New Year's Eve of Emperor Lian was probably the best day Mu Yan spent in the Yunyang Royal Mansion and with Yin Chenglu.

In a flash, it was Chinese New Year's Eve, the streets seemed to be daylight, even the light of the moon seemed much dimmer, and the streets were bustling with people.

"I'd like to go over there."

Mu Yan pointed to the place where the water was impassable, his face was infected by such joy, and he became red, looking eager to try.

"Okay." Yin Chenglu wore a crescent white dress, slightly bowed his head, connived at Mu Yan's behavior, and was pulled by Mu Yan, and the pace under his feet also accelerated a little.

"Look at this." I finally squeezed in, and I saw clearly that there were some lanterns with different anagrams written on them, and they were dazzled there.

"Do you want to give it a try, there is a reward for guessing correctly." At a humble table, there was a small man shouting at the top of his voice, and the atmosphere of the whole venue was brought to a climax.

"At the end of the year, there is no shortage of fish and rice." Mu Yan gently muttered a rabbit-shaped lantern, racking his brains and couldn't figure out what the answer was, his face was very annoyed.

Yin Chenglu looked at Mu Yan sideways, his small face wrinkled together, his eyes looked at the lantern without blinking, and he seemed to like the rabbit lantern.

"It's scales." The corners of Yin Chenglu's mouth unconsciously hooked up a smile, and his voice was neither high nor low to the people at the table in front of him, one of them was stunned for a moment, and looked back at the lamp behind him.

Mu Yan was also a little surprised, and shifted his gaze to Yin Chenglu's body, not knowing which answer Yin Chenglu just said.

"That's right, this one is yours, congratulations." The man who looked back at the lantern reached out and took off the rabbit's lantern and handed it over.

"Na, you like it." Yin Chenglu's somewhat rough palm, holding a little pink rabbit, looked a little funny, his face was a little unnatural, and he stuffed the lantern in his hand into Mu Yan's hand.

The handle of the lantern still had Yin Chenglu's temperature remaining, and Mu Yan felt a warm current in his heart, looking at Yin Chenglu's somewhat unnatural appearance, he couldn't help but smile.

"Hey, let's go take a look over there, I've been waiting for a long time to put the lanterns." Several girls of lower age pulled each other, shouting and shouting, ran over, passed by Mu Yan, and almost knocked Mu Yan to the ground.

"Slow down." When Mu Yan didn't stand firm under his feet and almost fell to the ground, Yin Chenglu's hands were quick, he stretched out his hand to support Mu Yan, and listened to the rhythmic beating sound from his broad chest, and for a moment, it seemed that the whole world was quiet and only the sound of heartbeat remained.

"Look at the lanterns by the river."

Mu Yan's face was flushed, he raised his head, looked up at Yin Chenglu slightly, his eyes were a little distracted, and he looked in the direction where the girls ran over just now.

"Okay." Yin Chenglu looked at it connivingly, reached out and rubbed Mu Yan's hair, the hairpin was not restrained, and a few bunches were scattered, sweeping on his face, itchy.

The two walked side by side, passing by other hurried people, passing through the crowd of people, as if they were going to permanently.

Holding a small lantern in his arms, the shape is very exquisite, and there is a candle in the middle, which is flickering and burning, and the faint small flame is beating vigorously.

The river was already full of lanterns of different sizes, staggering towards the other side of the river, and the surface of the river was dotted with stars, like a galaxy full of stars.

"You're here, I'll go over there." Both sides of the river were already full of people, and every young man and woman who came together was on both sides of the river, catching the flickering lanterns, as if this would be eternity.

As soon as Yin Chenglu finished speaking, he walked to the other side of the river, the white figure disappeared into the crowd, Mu Yan unconsciously held the lantern, and the lantern in his hand was almost deformed.

Pulling up the skirt at the ankles, little by little into the river, the water was a little cold, soaked the ankles, a little cold, Mu Yan carefully held the lantern in his arms, and his eyes searched for the familiar figure opposite.

"Ah, caught it." The voices of a pair of men and women in the middle of the river are particularly conspicuous, the lantern is in the middle of the two people, Mu Yan is also driven by such joy, just turned his face, and saw a very dazzling white on the opposite side, looking at himself from a distance.

Bending down gently, Mu Yan muttered a lot of wishes in his heart, and in the end, he didn't know what he said, watching the lantern swaying in the fluctuating water, walking in the opposite direction, his mind was all pulled by the lantern, and his feet kept moving forward.

The boots on Yin Chenglu's feet were also stained with water, and against the current, he walked in the direction of the lantern with the men around him who were just beginning to fall in love.

There were bursts of joy in the middle of the river, and a few hugged each other because of extreme joy, Mu Yan and Yin Chenglu got closer and closer, and slowly walked towards the middle of the river with the lanterns, the rabbit lantern in his hand was stained with some water traces, and swayed a few times heavily.

I almost arrived at the perimeter of the lantern, I don't know what the reason is, the lantern shook a few times, tilted to the side in the middle of the river, and before Mu Yan bent down to clean it up, the candle was planted in the river, and the lantern was all wet, shaking with the water waves.

Yin Chenglu was just a few steps away, and he walked to the periphery of the lantern, and he was able to catch the lantern, but he was just a little closer, and he could only watch the lamp that had become shredded paper swaying away from his field of vision.

"It was an accident, it's fine, at least there's this lantern." Along the way, Mu Yan's mood was a little low, and Yin Chenglu didn't know what to say, so he could only comfort him.

The rabbit lantern is still intact, but the position below, there are still some undried water traces, Mu Yan felt a sense of loss in his heart for no reason, or did he say that his wish was too much, and the lantern did not carry it......

A few days after the New Year, there was bad news that the concubine was seriously ill in Beijing, and the concubine missed her parent, King Yunyang, who was ordered to enter the palace to serve the sick, this time, it was undoubtedly a good opportunity for an idle prince who was not allowed to enter Beijing without an edict......

"What?" When Mu Yan was called to Yin Chenglu's room alone, he thought that there was something else interesting, and he came with great interest, but when he heard such news, his eyes widened and he was a little incredible.

"This is a great opportunity, if you can grasp it......" The ambition that had been hidden for a long time in Yin Chenglu's eyes burst out again, and he was ambitious to plan for the future, as if success was just around the corner.

"You mean, take advantage of this time to send me to the palace?" Mu Yan's originally clear eyes were stained with a hint of dark despair, and he couldn't believe his ears.

"When you enter the palace, you must stay by the concubine's side, and if you serve well, maybe you will have the opportunity to meet Emperor Lian." Yin Chenglu didn't notice the change in Mu Yan's face, and was still planning his plan.

"I don't want to go!" Mu Yan didn't know where he got the courage, looked at Yin Chenglu's eyes, and said word by word.

"This opportunity must not be missed!" Yin Chenglu frowned a little dissatisfied, his eyes were full of ambition, and the previous feelings had faded in his eyes, leaving shallow traces.

"If I can get into the eyes of Emperor Lian this time, then my plan is to take a step forward, and my previous efforts will not be in vain." Yin Chenglu's hands gestured several times in the air, as if he had already seen the prototype of a great cause in front of him, as if he had seen himself ascend to the highest position, and he could not tolerate the slightest mistake.

"I don't want to go, I don't want to go to other people's side." Mu Yan's voice was a little dry, and his mouth was a little bitter, but he still replied strongly.

"As I said, this opportunity must not be wasted, and if you don't go, you have to go." Yin Chenglu didn't have the patience before, and even said with a little scolding.

"Didn't you already forget it before, are you more ambitious than me?" Mu Yan's voice was hoarse, not to be outdone, he leaned up on his snow-white neck, and his eyes were full of loss.

"This is different, I also told you before, as long as the plan is completed, these children's affection can be considered!" Yin Chenglu was a little irritable, he couldn't back down at all on the disagreement in this matter, after all, this was a key turning point, if he lost it, he didn't know when he would have such an opportunity again.

"Am I just a tool in your eyes? Is it a tool to get close to Emperor Lian and accomplish great things? Mu Yan's heart was like a bitter lotus, his whole body and mind were numb, but he still had a little expectation.

However, if you enter the palace, you will be separated from the person in front of you, you will go to other men, and you will go from hope to despair at once, and your heart will feel as uncomfortable as tearing.

"I'm going to take you with me when I enter the palace these days, you must pay attention to your words and deeds, this time, it's the key to success, you can't fail after planning for so long!" A trace of confidence flashed in Yin Chenglu's eyes, full of confidence about what was coming.

Mu Yan thought that he would change for himself and give up the dream of the so-called great cause, she thought that their relationship in the past few months was enough to prove that Yin Chenglu had at least a pure land in her heart......

However, all this is just what she thinks......

All the previous things flashed in front of my eyes, watching the moment of flowers blooming together, watching the beauty of the night scene together, and occasionally encountering the lanterns on Chinese New Year's Eve, although they finally broke into confetti.

"Okay, I'm willing to enter the palace." Yin Chenglu was still worried and didn't know what to say to persuade Mu Yan to enter the palace willingly, but he didn't expect Mu Yan to speak by himself.

In the end, Mu Yan still agreed to Yin Chenglu, just because she loved him.

The carriage squeaked and carried two people, heading in the direction of Apocalypse City.
