Chapter 3 The Imperial City Lantern Festival

"There is no lantern festival in Beixun?"

"Beixun City is a lantern festival watched by the people, and the imperial city is a lantern festival watched by the princes and nobles, can it be the same?"

"Today is seventeen, the last day."

"......" Wanxiang pursed her lips and finally quieted down, she knew that it would take a day and a night from Beixun to the imperial city, and the lantern festival should not be able to catch up.

Along the way, the two stopped talking, and Akika fell asleep on the side as if she was tired, not feeling that the horse's speed was twice as fast as usual.

When the car stopped in front of the palace, it was just dark. Xiao Huaijin looked back at this person, and he didn't wake up after sleeping all day.

Xiao Huaijin stretched out his hand and pushed the incense, but there was still no movement, and when he raised his hand to touch her forehead, it was hot: "Liang is wrong." ”

"Lord Wang."

"Carry it into the house."

Wanxiang probably didn't expect to arrive in the imperial city so soon, with a cold handkerchief on her head, she woke up after a while. When I opened my eyes and looked at the surrounding scene, I guessed that this was probably the palace.

Qi'er, who often followed Wanxiang's side, hurriedly brought the medicine: "You can be considered awake, drink the medicine." ”

"It's ...... Wang fu? ”

"Hmm."

Wanxiang grabbed Qi'er's arm: "We're in the imperial city?!" Isn't it going to be another day and a night? I've slept for so long? ”

"The prince said that there was something urgent to do when he returned to the imperial city, so he would be faster. You slept in the carriage all day. ”

"Is there a lantern festival going on outside?" Wanxiang asked anxiously.

"yes."

Hearing this, Wanxiang hurriedly pushed away the quilt and put on her shoes and was about to run out.

"Why are you going?"

"Think about it a few years ago, we all lived on the snow peak with the prince, and then we were stuffed to Beixun, and now it's easy to get to the imperial city, why don't you take a good look at the lantern festival in the imperial city?"

Ji'er caught up with her and stopped her: "The prince has something to do, we can't rush out to make trouble for him, your injuries are not good, you were hot just now, and you haven't ...... yet."

Wan Xiangcai didn't care what she said, she walked out while tying her cloak, and as soon as she got out from behind the screen, she saw Xiao Huaijin sitting in front of the desk reading a book, and stopped without waiting for Ji'er to pull herself.

The room was quiet again, Xiao Huaijin put down the book and walked to the edge of the fire with white leather boots, drying his hands and not asking questions. Wanxiang didn't know what she wanted to express, so she lowered her head and called: "Lord Wang." ”

"Want to get out?"

“……”

"Go ahead."

Wanxiang raised her head and stretched out her hand to pull Ji'er. Just took a few steps and stopped, Qi'er thought that she was not going again, how did she know that Wanxiang turned around and asked Xiao Huaijin: "If the prince doesn't give his subordinates tokens, how can his subordinates come back?" ”

While the maidservant brought Xiao Huaijin tea, he swallowed unhurriedly: "Do you still want to come back?" ”

Wanxiang didn't know which sentence she said wrong, so she knelt on the ground when she was pulled by Qi'er.

"If you are injured like this, you probably deserve to die outside. Or will you meet the prince of whose family when you go out, and you won't come back? ”

Only then did Wanxiang understand the meaning of Xiao Huaijin's words: "Don't worry, your subordinates will never talk to people." ”

"Yuanhou didn't drink well and beat up his confidant, so you easily bought that person into Yuanhou's mansion. It can be seen that his henchmen should be guarded against. Now that I'm in the Imperial City, I have to be careful about everything, what do you say? ”

"That'...... The prince asked Liang Cuo to follow? "Liang Cuo is loyal to him, and he should always be trustworthy after several lives and deaths on the battlefield, right?

Xiao Huaijin raised his star-like eyes and looked at the little head of Wanxiang knocking on the ground: "Liang Wrong, you dare to call?" ”

"The prince forgives the sin."

"Looks ......" Xiao Huaijin paced in front of Wanxiang and reached out to hook her chin: "You have to go?" ”

Qi'er reached out and pulled the corner of Wanxiang's clothes, signaling her to stop being willful. Xiao Huaijin will be the same for a while, who knows if he will be unhappy and murderous.

"The subordinates are unwell, so they won't go out."

"You can do whatever you want, I don't know if this is the king's palace or your Tibetan Incense Pavilion?"

"......" At this time, it is useless to say more, and Wanxiang knows the concerns in Xiao Huaijin's heart: "The subordinates are guilty." ”

Liang Cuo took the brocade fur and draped it on Xiao Huaijin's body, held the stove with his big hand and didn't even look at the incense, so he said, "Let's go." ”

Originally, I heard that Xiao Huaijin was in a hurry to return to the imperial city and had an urgent matter, and he might have to go out to see someone, where did he think that he was calling himself.

Liang Cuo coughed twice, waved his hand at Wanxiang, and motioned for her to follow.

Before he left the palace, he saw that the lights were bright outside, and even the moonlight was very dim. In his heart, he muttered that Xiao Huaijin said that there was something important to do, so he hid under the veil and cautiously followed behind Xiao Huaijin.

In the end, he followed Xiao Huaijin up to a high-rise building, and stood there to watch the happy people downstairs. Several fire dragons passed through the alleys, and there was a lot of gold swaying and commotion everywhere, and Wanxiang didn't blink when she saw it.

Although she is a female rakshasa who doesn't shake the killer, she is still a girl with curiosity in her heart.

The imperial city is full of men with brocade and jade crowns and women with golden hairpins and pearls hanging on their heads, so Xiao Huaijin's clothes are really a bit ordinary.

Xiao Huaijin held the stove and watched the cars and boats downstairs, the powerful gathered, where are those passing lights, those people with their own thoughts are more worth seeing?

The girl with a pure gold mask looked upstairs and saw Xiao Huaijin with an extraordinary bearing, and hurriedly pulled the people around her and asked, "Who is that person upstairs?" ”

The person next to him took a closer look: "That's the sixth prince, probably just returned from the territory and hasn't entered the palace yet." ”

"He's Xiao Huaijin?"

Just when the girl downstairs was looking at Xiao Huaijin, she saw a good-looking man walking up to Xiao Huaijin's side.

That person is Liang Cuo: "Lord Wang, Li Shangshu is downstairs, I want to ......"

"Nope."

Xiao Huaijin looked back at Wanxiang and tilted his head to look down. casually stuffed the stove into Wanxiang's hand, Wanxiang held the stove and thought that Xiao Huaijin was going to turn around and do something, but he still stood quietly here.

"See the person behind the golden dragon?"

Wanxiang moved her eyes at this time: "The prince is talking about the purple clothes?" ”

"That's King Yi."

"He's King Yi?" Wanxiang raised the corners of her mouth and smiled disdainfully: "It is said that King Yi Yu Xuanang is extraordinary, and his appearance is famous for his good looks in the imperial city." That's it...... is not as handsome as the prince was born. ”

"I want you to see, it's the token that lets you know whose one you stole it, and it doesn't make you talk too much."

"Even if the prince doesn't let me talk too much, I should ask my subordinates if he will be punished by the emperor, right?"

"You are so willing to guess the king's mind, maybe one day I will really kill you."

"Then the subordinate guesses the minds of others...... Although Concubine Yuan was suspicious, she would be persuaded by King Yi. The subordinates did it cleanly, but Yuan Guifei couldn't find the handle, and she was afraid that the little emperor would suspect her relationship with King Yi, so she could only endure it first.

And in order to give an explanation to the Yuan family, the little emperor slapped King Yi a few times. ”

"How did you know that Concubine Yuan would be convinced?"

"The drama made by his subordinates is not a complete set."

Xiao Huaijin pursed her lips, suddenly pinched Wanxiang's wrist and pulled her back into the room and pressed her against the wall, Liang Cuo closed the window when he saw this, turned around and pushed the door out.

"You're disobedient?"
