In the following days, Yu Ruyan would go to Wuwei Medical Center to visit Brother An whenever she had time, and Brother An's condition improved under Yue Yu's treatment, and his complexion returned to his previous ruddyness, but the clothes still could not be taken out of his body!

On this day, Yu Ruyan went to see Brother An early in the morning, and talked to Brother An for a long time, and when she was about to go back, Yue Yu stopped her and said with a smile: "Are you free tonight?" ”

"Hey, is there something wrong with Childe?" Yu Ruyan was a little strange.

"If I have time, I will take you to visit the night market in Dongdu at night, and I heard Brother An say that you have always missed the snacks of Qi country, and there are them in the night market." Yue Yu stood quietly in the middle of the courtyard wearing a dark cloak, his face was handsome and unparalleled, his eyes were as bright as a spring, and the pure white fox fur on the cloak lined his face like a crown of jade, as if there was a bright light shining on his body, making the simple and ordinary yard bright.

Yu Ruyan swallowed her saliva, and wished she could go to the night market with him now, but when she thought of Mu Lingzhi's instructions before going out, she had to refuse and said, "Son, you can't leave the house at night if you have something······ I'm sorry! "It's a shame that I can't eat something delicious.

Yue Yu's eyes turned slightly, a trace of loss flashed, and he smiled slowly: "It's okay, let's go next time!" ”

On the way home, Yu Ruyan saw that the street shops on the side of the road were hung with red and bright lanterns, and even the branches on the side of the road were full of all kinds of lanterns. ”

The little girl smiled happily and said: "Girl don't know, today is the Hanrui Festival of our Daliang, there is a lantern festival at night, young men and women will come out in pairs to play, and this long street can be very lively at night!" ”

Yu Ruyan suddenly remembered Yue Yu's invitation, and her heart was slightly stunned.

Back at the palace, Yu Ruyan went straight back to Yunsong Courtyard, and since that day, she has been left in Yunsong Courtyard by Mu Lingzhi for no reason.

When passing by the small garden, Yu Ruyan suddenly caught a glimpse of Hongmei's figure flashing from inside, fortunately, her eyes were sharp, and she saw who the figure was, and couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the two of them were together?

Back in Yunsong Courtyard, Mu Lingzhi just woke up from a nap, and he didn't see the copper coin waiting by his side, he was about to open his mouth to call someone, Yu Ruyan hurriedly stepped forward to serve him to change clothes, Mu Lingzhi looked back and saw that it was her, his face softened, and he was dissatisfied: "The copper coin boy is getting more and more presumptuous, and he hasn't seen a figure for a long time, I don't know where to run to be lazy?" ”

Yu Ruyan remembered the figure she had just seen in the small garden, and couldn't help but smile and said, "The copper coin has also grown up, he has his own business, Your Highness forgive me!" ”

Mu Lingzhi glanced at her disappreciatively, and when he saw her smiling and happy face today, he seemed to be in a good mood, and couldn't help asking, "Is your friend sick?" If the doctor outside is not skilled, you can ask Dr. Wu to help your friend take a look, she will get better as soon as possible, and you will not run out every day. ”

She smiled and said gratefully: "Although it is not complete, but the condition has improved, much better than before, thank you Your Highness for your concern." ”

While helping him tie his belt, she asked him, "Your Highness said that there is something in the house today, but what is the matter?" ”

"Do you know what day it is?" Mu Lingzhi looked at her palm-sized face, couldn't help but reach out and pinch it, and couldn't help frowning and muttering: "Eat so much, why don't you see half of your flesh?" ”

"I know, today is the Hanrui Festival, there is a lantern festival outside, does Your Highness want to take me out to play?" Yu Ruyan smiled and fell to Mu Lingzhi's side, rubbing against him like a greedy puppy.

Mu Lingzhi said disgustedly: "The street is noisy, it's better to be quiet in the house, you have to see the lanterns, there are also in the palace, why go outside to join in the fun." ”

Watching the lanterns is secondary, mainly the snacks in the night market!

Yu Ruyan swallowed her throat and said without giving up: "Can the lanterns in the house be compared to the ones outside?" The festival is not just about having a lot of people, and I heard that the Hanrui Festival is a festival where young men and women meet······ If Your Highness doesn't go, then I'll go myself! ”

"You dare!"

Being glared at by him, Yu Ruyan shrunk her mouth aggrievedly, thinking angrily, she knew that she wouldn't come back, and let Yue Yu take her to eat Qi snacks!

"Click!" A set of clothes flew from the spur and smashed into her face, she took off the clothes ignorantly and looked at Mu Lingzhi with a stunned face, the latter looked at her arrogantly, and said coldly: "Why don't you hurry up and change your clothes?" ”

What?

She couldn't react, she looked at the clothes in her hand for some reason, looked at Mu Lingzhi worriedly, and asked later: "What does Your Highness mean······ You're going to take me out to play! ”

Understanding, Yu Ruyan jumped up excitedly, jumped up and shook his shoulder: "Thank you, Your Highness, Your Highness is really good!" After shouting, before Mu Lingzhi could react, he had already run to the next room with his clothes in his arms.

It turned out that he had planned to take her out early in the morning, so he told her to come back early when she went out.

Yu Ruyan's heart was warm, and when she opened her clothes, she saw that it was an ordinary moon-white cloud goose fine brocade robe, with a simple but delicate style, and it would not be too obvious when she walked in the crowd.

She was happy in her heart, she didn't expect him to think about it so carefully, and hurriedly changed and walked out of the door, but saw Mu Lingzhi standing at the door waiting for her in the same color clothes, although she changed out of the brocade clothes on her body, but the simple clothes still looked good on him, and the noble temperament couldn't cover it, and the whole person was handsome and handsome!

Yu Ruyan stepped forward and circled around him twice, and her mouth was 'tsk' and surprised: "Ah, whose son is really handsome, the women of the Eastern Capital today are blessed." ”

Mu Lingzhi glanced coldly at someone jumping in front of him like a monkey, and asked the copper coin on the side coldly: "There is a sentence to describe what the skin monkey is called?" If you don't fight for three days, go to the house and uncover the tiles? ”

The copper coin hid aside and laughed happily, and responded in a loud voice: "It is this sentence, the master is right!" ”

Yu Ruyan smiled, and immediately leaned meekly beside Mu Lingzhi, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, it's not early, let's go out!" ”

The three of them stepped out of the gate of the mansion and were about to get into the carriage, when they saw Yan Fei dressed exquisitely and guarding the door, and saw Yu Ruyan happily coming up, his eyes swept away without showing any traces on Mu Lingzhi and the copper coin, and said with a sweet smile: "Sister, are you going out to watch the lantern fair?" ”

Yu Ruyan looked at her dressed up and ready to go out, then glanced at the eagerness on Tong Qian's face, smiled slowly, and pleaded to Mu Lingzhi: "Your Highness, there are many people to be lively, why don't you let Yan Fei go out with us." ”

When Chen Yanfei heard her words, his big eyes lit up instantly, and he pursed his mouth and looked at Mu Lingzhi a little uneasily, for fear that he would not agree.

Tong Qian was also overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly stepped forward to Mu Lingzhi's side and said, "Master, it's also good for multiple people to serve you and Miss Xiaoqing." ”

Mu Lingzhi glanced at Yan Fei, turned his head to Yu Ruyan and said, "Whatever you want!" With that, he rolled over and got on horseback.

Yu Ruyan flew into the carriage with Chen Yan. The wheels turned, her eyes looked at the innocent and romantic Chen Yanfei in front of her for a moment, and when she thought of the figure she saw in the small garden today, she smiled at her quietly: "Listen to Chen's mother, someone told you a good family matter, I congratulate my sister here!" ”

Chen Yanfei, who was excited, heard her words, her face suddenly turned white, her eyes darkened, and she said unhappily: "My mother likes to talk nonsense, sister, don't believe her words, I won't marry into the Gu family." ”

Yu Ruyan looked at her and thought for a while, and said slowly: "Do you really like copper coins?" Tong Qian is just a small guy, and Gu Ershao is a young master of a rich family. ”

In the small garden just now, the figures she saw were Yan Fei and the copper coin!

Chen Yanfei's face turned red as soon as he 'swished', he lowered his head and fiddled with the corners of his clothes, his big round eyes dodged-

"Sister... How do you know? ”

Yu Ruyan said: "I accidentally saw it when you were in the small garden with the copper coin today. Before, Mother Chen asked me to persuade you to agree to the Gu family's family affairs, so I want to ask you about your own plans? ”

Chen Yanfei's face was crimson, his face was hesitant, but his voice was unusually resolute: "Sister, I will definitely not marry the Gu family." ”

Seeing her so firm, Yu Ruyan opened the corner of the curtain and glanced at the copper coins with a happy face outside, and said slowly: "What about the copper coins?" Do you identify him? ”

Chen Yanfei's face froze, his body was pressed very low, his fingers pinched the rose embroidery on the upper of his shoes, and it took a long time to barely squeeze out a smile, shyly turned his face sideways, and whispered: "I haven't talked about the matter with copper coins yet, and I ask my sister to help me keep it secret." ”

Yu Ruyan knew in her heart, and when she saw that she didn't want to be a young grandmother to choose a small house, she couldn't help but praise: "Although Tong Qian is a small house, he has been by His Royal Highness's side for many years, and he is sincere and hard-working. I am also very optimistic about him, if you follow her, life will be good. If you're worried that your parents won't agree, I might try to persuade them. ”

Chen Yanfei's head was always lowered, she seemed to be very shy, her tone was a little fluctuating, and she said softly: "Thank you, sister, for a heart of fulfillment, but now... We'll talk about that later. ”

When night comes, the whole east is decorated with lanterns as bright as day, and the streets are crowded with young men and women.

As soon as he got out of the carriage, Mu Lingzhi held Yu Ruyan's hand tightly in his palm and advised: "There are too many people, don't get lost." ”

The four of them walked into the crowd, the street was full of people, Mu Lingzhi suddenly dragged Yu Ruyan to a corner on the side of the road, and took the lanterns sold on the side of the stall to block his body, Yu Ruyan was pressed into the corner by him, and he said in a hurry: "Palace..." Childe, what's wrong? ”

"Shh Mu Lingzhi motioned for her to be silent, looking at his serious and nervous look, Yu Ruyan's heart froze, and she quickly closed her mouth and didn't dare to move-

Could it be that the Mask Assassin is chasing after him again? It's not so unlucky, it's hard to come out and have a trip!

She couldn't see the situation outside, and she didn't dare to say anything, so she had to ask Mu Lingzhi with her eyes in a hurry.

At this moment, there was an anxious shout from Tong Qian and Yan Fei in his ears, Mu Lingzhi suddenly smiled proudly, and only let go of Yu Ruyan when they were far away, clapped his hands angrily, and said proudly: "Finally got rid of the two heel worms!" ”

Hearing this, she was stunned, looked at Mu Lingzhi with a childish face at this time in disbelief, and said in surprise: "Your Highness, you are actually mischievous?" I thought ······"

"Smack!" After being beaten on the head, Mu Lingzhi glanced at her proudly, and said coldly: "With them with you, how can you have a good time?" Isn't it good for us to separate ourselves from them and play each other? Also, do you dare to call me Your Highness again? ”

Looking at the fierce appearance he pretended, Yu Ruyan said very disnefactorously: "Tsk, I'm afraid that if you don't find the copper coin one night, you will cry to death, Dian... Childe is really forbearing! ”

"Hmph, last time he asked him to take good care of you, he actually took you directly to the Prime Minister's Mansion to receive the punishment, and I haven't settled the account with him yet! If you let him be anxious today, it will be a punishment that is not conducive to his actions! ”

After speaking, he didn't care about leisurely taking out a simple drawing from his body, discerning the direction, and said with a smile: "Let's go to the east, the night market is starting to do business at this time, my son is in a good mood today, take you to eat snacks from all over the world!" ”

Yu Ruyan looked at the drawings in his hand that read the various arrangements for tonight, and her heart was shocked-

Unexpectedly, in order to arrange everything tonight, he patiently did his homework in advance, took her to eat, enjoy the lanterns, swim in the lake, and recorded everything carefully!

Her heart was warm, her eyes were sore and uncomfortable, she raised a smile and said to him: "I want to eat all the snacks in the night market, I wonder if the silver in the child's money bag is enough to help me pay?" ”

Mu Lingzhi pretended to look at her with disgust, but there was a secret smile in his deep eyes: "It's a shame to be with you!" ”

Holding her hand through the crowd and brightly lit streets, he always held her tightly, carefully guarding her behind him, preventing the crowd from hitting her, his hand was warm and comfortable, making her extremely relieved.

Looking at the man in front of him who was squeezing out the road for himself, Yu Ruyan's eyes were sparkling, and his heart had never been so satisfied!

The two finally arrived at the night market, Yu Ruyan excitedly pulled Mu Lingzhi to the stall selling hot pots, smelling the familiar fragrance from her nose, her saliva fell directly!

Hot pot is the most distinctive food in Qi country, the broth boiled out of fresh bones, and then with the most characteristic spicy condiments of Qi country, put on the charcoal fire to cook, and then according to their respective preferences in the pot to add their favorite vegetables and meat, after scalding, take out and eat.

In this cold season when water drips into ice, guarding a steaming, spicy and refreshing hot pot is simply the most fulfilling thing in life.

Yu Ruyan touched her round belly satisfactorily, wiped her mouth and suddenly remembered that she had forgotten someone by patronizing and eating, and when she looked back, she saw Mu Ling sitting leisurely drinking tea with a face, the noisy and bustling night market was full of traffic, and the flow of people was like a river, but he sat as steady as a rock, not squinting and leisurely drinking the coarse tea in his hand, looking up at her from time to time, seeing that she was eating with a satisfied face, and her eyebrows and eyes couldn't help but stretch her deep eyes full of doting.

Although he didn't eat, he was full of patience with her, and when he saw that she was sweating profusely, he handed over his handkerchief to help her wipe her sweat, and said coldly: "Why are you in such a hurry, and no one is robbing you?" ”

Yu Ruyan grabbed a chopstick and handed it to his mouth, and encouraged: "Palace... Childe try it, this one is the best. ”

After the fresh hairy belly is scalded in the hot pot, the color is oily, and the thin piece is dipped in chili oil, which makes people appetize. Yu Ruyan saw that Mu Lingzhi's face was embarrassed, and unwillingly handed the chopsticks closer, "Na, the son appreciates his face and tastes it!" ”

Mu Lingzhi's face changed quietly, he had always been afraid of spicy, but now he looked at the red layer of chili oil wrapped in his hairy belly, his liver trembled carefully, he took the small plate in front of him to pick it up, and said in a muffled voice: "It's too hot just out of the pot, eat it when it's cool!" ”

Hearing him say this, Yu Ruyan hurriedly put on her mouth and blew a few cool air on her hairy belly, and it was indeed not hot and persistently handed it to Mu Lingzhi's mouth, her eyes were shining and she looked at him, and after seeing the fear he inadvertently revealed, she couldn't help but quip: "Didn't Your Highness say that the marching people have eaten everything, why did a little hairy belly scare you?" ”

After that, as soon as the chopsticks were closed, he raised his eyebrows and said, "It's a pity not to taste such a delicious thing." His mouth was pressed up, ready to eat it himself.

The oily and seductive hairy belly piece was close at hand, and it fell into her mouth in the next second, however, before her mouth could close, suddenly someone bullied forward, and the movement came to her like lightning, and the hairy belly to her mouth was eaten by him along with her mouth.

"Hmm······"

I felt something roll in my mouth, and I slipped around her mouth by the way, and then-the hairy belly was gone!?

Things were born too fast, Yu Ruyan was still stunned on the spot like a fool, and then the culprit was already satisfied with a satisfied face chewing the strong hairy belly in his mouth, although he felt that the spicy on the hairy belly had been reduced a lot after her work, but it still felt very spicy, he ate with his mouth open, ignoring someone with a black face on the opposite side, and smiled happily in his heart, well, this taste is really good!

After eating a piece, he still had an endless aftertaste, and when he saw Yu Ruyan's stupid appearance that had not yet come back to his senses, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and smile proudly: "When was this son afraid?" Come on, go on! ”

Looking at his smug description of the spring breeze on his face, Yu Ruyan complained bitterly, how could he forget his true nature when he was so happy? When have you won in front of him, isn't it self-defeating to challenge him?

Standing up angrily, Yu Ruyan blushed with shame, and said with a cold face: "I'm full, Gongzi wants to eat by himself and stay alone to eat slowly!" With that, he shook his hand and left.

Mu Lingzhi chased after her unhurriedly, and as soon as she stretched out her hand, she threw her hand away, thinking about the strange eyes of everyone around her just now, Yu Ruyan's face was so red that blood was dripping, and she pouted: "Your Highness bullies people!" ”

Mu Lingzhi strode forward and said leisurely: "I pay for what you eat, who is bullying whom?" ”

"I'm not talking about this, that... That hairy belly ······" Thinking of him kissing himself in public just now, Yuruyan's face burned again, and he was so embarrassed that he was embarrassed.

"You asked me to eat the hairy belly, what else will you do if I eat it obediently?" Someone looked at her red face leisurely, and his heart was full of joy.

Leprechaun, it's finally time to make you shy!

"You ······" Shameless!

The two walked to the river, a two-story flower boat stopped there, Tong Qian led Yan Fei to stand on the side of the flower boat, his eyes were almost looking through, he looked around the street, his voice was almost hoarse, and he didn't find Mu Lingzhi and the others, Tong Qian had to take Yan Fei to the flower boat to wait for the rabbit, he knew that Mu Lingzhi would definitely take Yu Ruyan to play on the flower boat.

Yan Fei looked at the two people who came hand in hand, his eyes flashed slightly, his big eyes flashed a few times, and he looked at Yuru and smiled sweetly: "What fun place did my sister go with His Royal Highness?" ”

Yu Ruyan thought of the night market just now, her face turned red again, and she said, "I didn't go anywhere, I just went to eat something and walked casually, what about you?" ”

Yan Fei's face darkened, thinking that he would finally have a good time, but because he was separated from them, he only cared about looking for Mu Lingzhi and her all night, where did he still have the slightest heart to play?

Now seeing the two of them come back intact, she rolled her eyes, and suddenly understood that the sudden separation of the two was definitely not unintentional, but intentional, that is, she and the copper coin were in the way, and suddenly her heart was like a stone blocked, and she was depressed.

She said in a sullen voice: "We also watched the lanterns, and we had a good time!" ”

Yu Ruyan pulled her on the boat together, Yan Fei was slightly stunned, and excused herself: "It's getting late, I'd better go back early, I'm afraid my father and mother will worry." With that, he retreated and went back alone.

I thought that bringing her out tonight would give her a chance to be alone with Tong Qian, but Yan Fei didn't seem to be too happy, and the loss on her face didn't escape her eyes.

But she couldn't help thinking about it, the figure flashed in front of her, Mu Ziyue was wearing a purple purple and emerald skirt and a silver fox cloak, Shi Shiran came to her, Ying Yingxing's eyes flashed cold, but there was a kind look on her face: "I haven't seen my sister for a while, I didn't expect to meet you here today, it's really a coincidence!" ”

Yuruyan's eyes were cold, and she said coldly in her heart, she is really ghostly, you can meet her anywhere!

On her face, she said indifferently: "Miss Mu sees six ways and listens to all directions, if you want to meet anyone, it is very easy." ”

She wouldn't believe any chance encounters, the ship of the palace was obviously parked here, and it was not easy for her to find it!

Mu Ziyue's eyes looked through her and saw Mu Lingzhi who was talking to her eldest brother not far away, and when she saw that he was wearing clothes of the same color as Yu Ruyan, her pretty face suddenly lost blood, and her heart was like a sieve holding water, and it was empty in an instant!

When she heard the subordinate tell her that it was Mu Lingzhi who actually took Yu Ruyan out of the house today, she also reprimanded the subordinate who was monitoring her eyes at that time, she must have seen the wrong person, because, since the incident ten years ago, for ten years, Mu Lingzhi has stayed in the mansion every year on the Hanrui Festival and refused to go out.

Ten years ago today, his father led his troops to rebel, killed the first emperor, who was also his imperial uncle, and seized the throne.

And he, although he was only thirteen years old at the time, had to charge for his father, when a sword was stabbed in the chest of the then crown prince and his most beloved cousin, Mu Yizhi......

On that day, the eastern capital, the blood flowed like a river, the corpses were all over the field, the fire in the sky, the red blood were deeply imprinted in his mind, and the hideous appearance of his cousin Mu Yizhi after being stabbed in the chest by him was even more engraved in his heart······

After that, every year on this day, he stayed closed, no matter how lively and noisy it was outside, although he had no choice but to do so······
