On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the streets are bustling with people coming and going, and the lights are colorful. Xue Mingcan pulled Jia Lan to shuttle through the crowd, watching the dragon and lion dances for a while, and watching others set up a stage to fight poems and guess riddles, so unhappy.

Walking forward, a bunch of people gathered on the street, and the two of them squeezed in, and it turned out that they were throwing pots inside. The prizes are several beautiful river lanterns, and lotus-shaped, drawn square-shaped river lanterns, fish-shaped river lanterns...... Xue Mingcan pointed to the square-shaped river lamp painted with a picture of begonia flowers, and said, "Jialan, see if that lamp is very good-looking, and you can also write on it." ”

Eight arrows in a round of pitching, if all eight into the pot, you can choose a river lantern. Now it's a man who is pitching, and he pitched to the sixth, and the first five went in, but this one didn't go in. There was a sigh all around. Garan stepped forward and paid the boss: "I'll come." ”

Xue Mingcan clapped his hands and was elated: "Jialan, win back that begonia flower!" ”

Garan nodded confidently. She is a martial arts practitioner, and this little thing is simply not enough for her to play. In a few clicks, all eight arrows entered the pot, and a cheer erupted from the surroundings. Garan won back the river lantern with the begonia flower and said, "You can write on it." ”

Xue Mingcan nodded. Just now, the man went to throw the pot again, but he didn't throw it again. Jia Lan said: "This game is very simple, do you want to give it a try?" ”

Xue Mingcan was eager to try: "Which one do you like?" ”

"A square-shaped river lantern with plum blossoms drawn."

Xue Mingcan held an arrow and looked left and right to aim at the mouth of the pot. The man was beside her and said, "The girl has been watching for so long, but is she optimistic?" This game is not for everyone. ”

Xue Mingcan was in a good mood and looked at him with a smile: "Isn't it just a game?" With that, she threw the arrow and hit the spout. The man was dumbfounded for a moment, then snorted again: "Good luck." ”

Xue Mingcan picked up the second one: "Why are you like this, if you can't vote, you don't want others to vote." The second one went into the pot again. The remaining sticks were also thrown into the pot. The square river lantern with plum blossom pattern was successfully obtained.

"For you."

"These two girls are really interesting, send them around." One of the onlookers said, "But the girls are really good! Xue Mingcan smiled and thanked the eldest lady for her compliment. The man who voted twice and didn't win the prize was obviously very faceless, and he wanted to compete with Jia Lan and Xue Mingcan.

Xue Mingcan and Jia Lan glanced at each other and said, "We don't compare with you." ”

The river lantern got it, and the two of them borrowed the pen. Xue Mingcan didn't have any wishes, she thought for a moment and wrote on it: I wish to see Master as soon as possible.

Xue Mingcan tilted his head: "What did you write?" Garan turned around and smiled, "It's a secret." ”

Xue Mingcan didn't force it, the two put the river lantern by the river and watched it float away. The boats on the river gathered, the painting boats sang and danced jubilantly, and the merry men and pretty women talked and laughed. Brilliant fireworks burst into the sky, and the sounds of amazement were endless. Xue Mingcan and Jia Lan both looked up. It's been a long time since she's seen such brilliant fireworks. Garan comes from the side, and it is rare to see such extravagance.

Xue Mingcan inadvertently glanced at a man in a painting boat in the distance and fell from the boat into the water. She was startled for a moment, and in the corner of the painting boat, there was a woman standing, calmly watching everything.

"Garan." Xue Mingcan tugged at the corners of Jialan's clothes, and heard someone around him shouting: "Someone has fallen into the water!" ”

Garan flew and pulled the man from the water to the shore, but the man was out of breath. A bunch of people gathered around, pointing and pointing. The boat was already docked on the shore, and the woman on the boat panicked, richly dressed, but without a servant by her side. When he saw the man's body, he immediately fainted.

From the moment she got off the boat, Xue Mingcan's eyes did not leave, this woman is the lady in the Temple of Mercy and Grace! She was dizzy, and Xue Mingcan, who was standing behind her, just helped her back to the painting boat to rest.

The dead man was Xu Yan, Marquis of Anyuan, and the woman who fainted was his wife Qi.

Xue Mingcan sat in the painting boat and watched Qi "wake up". She sat up by herself, looked at Xue Mingcan and stopped, and suddenly asked, "The girl can ask for a sign in the Ci'en Temple?" What did you get? ”

Jia Lan was also sitting in the painting boat, she never expected that Qi was actually the woman from the Temple of Mercy and Grace mentioned by Xue Mingcan, and she never expected that the first thing Qi did when she woke up was not to ask about her dead husband, but to talk about the sign of the Temple of Mercy and Grace with a girl who had a relationship.

"I begged. Sounds like a good sign. Xue Mingcan paused for a moment and said, "I saw it." ”

Qi Shi didn't care and said, "The sign of the Temple of Mercy and Grace is really spiritual. Once upon a time, I begged for a lot, and the sign said that my beloved would die, and I... You can't marry someone you like. ”
