Chapter Eighty-Six: Snow and Wind Tight, Another Night

"After a while, it will be the Shangyuan Festival, and the people of Tiandu will cook all kinds of Lantern Festival...... The street is full of lantern watchers, riddles, fireworks, and broken branches playing in the water, not to mention how lively it is! ”

The low and smiling voice was slightly magnetic, echoing in the main hall of Dening Palace, which was extremely pleasant.

The main hall is not spacious, now it is divided into two rooms inside and one outside by the embroidered ink screen, the outer room is just an oblique angle of the main hall, in the narrow dark room, Ji You turned over on the bed, put the back arm behind his head, remembered the lively and festive of the previous years, and couldn't help but turn over and over and couldn't sleep.

"You don't have a good life, and you don't let people sleep?!"

Mei Xuan's attendant raised his voice and said angrily, although his mid-qi had not yet recovered, it was enough to deter someone who was about to move.

Ji You shrank inward and muttered with a smile: "Aunt Tiger......"

"What do you say?! Say it again?! ”

Mei Xuanzhi straightened up, her beautiful eyes sparkled in the darkness, Ji You was startled, her whole person shrank into a ball, and she covered her head in the quilt and didn't dare to poke it out again.

Mei Xuanzhi listened to the silence over there, and she was a little unfinished, she leaned out of the bed, her phoenix eyes flashed with bright and longing light, "I have lived in Luoyang for a long time, but I have never seen the Shangyuan Festival in Tiandu...... I'd love to see ...... for myself."

"Then let's go, in the past five days, Tiandu City can be lively...... The day is the city, the night is lit, the lamp is also very unusual, the pearl is beautiful, and the blue daisy is wonderfully painted. There are also poetic riddles on the lamp. ”

Ji You said more and more, leisurely, his eyes were shining, "If you guess correctly, in addition to the whole lamp, sometimes you can also get the favor of the owner of the lantern...... They are generally beautiful women in the show! ”

As soon as he spoke, he heard Dan Li's crisp laughter, obviously overjoyed-

"Xiao Ji, if you don't say a few words, our Dening Palace will be peaceful in the world!"

Before she could finish speaking, she only heard a crisp sound, and a porcelain pillow fell to the ground and smashed in front of Ji You's bed, so frightened that his head that had just poked out retracted.

There was silence for a moment, and Ji You's voice was a little sneering, "Xiaomei, I really said it casually, I didn't mean to be angry with you." ”

"That's what you're talking about......"

The cold sound almost condensed into ice slag.

"Xiaomei, I didn't mean that at all...... I just want to go with you to see the lights! ”

"Let's go see your beauties!"

Mei Xuanzhi turned over, still frowning.

"If Xiaomei doesn't go, I won't go either!"

Ji You simply played tricks.

"As a palace concubine, I can't go out in the first place...... Without my connections, can you get out on your own? ”

Mei Xuanzhi raised his eyebrows and cross-examined, Ji You finally stopped talking, but he still said cheekily, "You are the one who likes all kinds of hand-painted lanterns." ”

Without waiting for Mei Xuan's answer, he said in a stacked voice: "Xiaomei, let's sneak out together, okay...... Whichever light you fancy will be won for you. ”

"Thank you, I'm a little literate myself."

"But it's still not as good as Ben Gongzi's literary style, every word is beautiful......"

Dan Li slept by the window, a candle light fluttering in the dim yellow, and she listened to the two people's answers, and she also curled up in the quilt and laughed. She choked with laughter, and gasped slightly: "You two are really, I can't sleep when I laugh like this." ”

With that, she simply got up and sat down by the window.

"It's Shangyuan Festival again, Tiandu follows the weekly routine and lasts for as many as five days, but in Jiangnan Tangguo, it is only three days."

She whispered, as if to the two of them, as if she were muttering to herself.

Whether the two of them heard it or not, she pressed her face to the window screen and quietly watched the shadows of the snow fluttering in her ears, and there was a faint wind whistling in her ears.

In a trance, it's like going back to the old days-

"It's Shangyuan Festival again, everyone has returned to their hometowns, why are you the only one stranded on the mountain......"

"Because I don't have a family...... Not a single one. ”

"Why are you still keeping a straight face?"

"It snows for three days every year, and my peach tree freezes half to death."

"Don't worry, although the peach tree is withered, it can still sprout green shoots when the spring is warm next year......"

"Really?"

"Hmm...... Because this is a peach tree planted by the two of us with our own hands, it is tenacious. ”

Like a dream, the thick and slightly calloused palm is still as usual, holding himself steadily, intimate and warm.

She couldn't help but stretch out her hand, but it was empty.

The outstretched fingers touched the pane, slightly revealing a gap, and the cold wind carried snow flakes and rushed in, instantly making her shiver.

All...... It's all just vanity.

The cruel and beautiful dream is like a bubble, as long as you poke it lightly, it will float and shatter.

Her eyes flashed golden, and then she smiled quietly.

"I hate Shangyuan Festival the most......"

The low murmur made the two who were arguing endlessly, and Mei Xuan's servant was stunned and asked, "What did you say?" ”

"It's nothing, I mean, it's too boring to live the metaverse alone......"

Danli turned her head and smiled, her eyes flashed with brilliance, she took the flying mahjong, but her hands clenched unconsciously, until the mahjong meowed in protest, and then let go apologetically-

"Why don't I sneak out with you too?"

Mei Xuanzhi was slightly surprised, "But the palace concubine sneaked out of the palace and was caught, which is a monstrous disaster." ”

"My sister used to use the palace maid's waist card, and it has always been smooth and unimpeded."

Danli smiled sweetly, and his words were extremely sharp, and Mei Xuan's mouth opened, and he was finally silent.

"Okay, we'll leave on the tenth night of the new year!"

Danli lifted mahjong and fell on the bed satisfied.

****

The evening of the tenth day of the new year finally arrived.

The three of them ate some hot soup noodles early, and then changed into the palace maid's clothes brought by Mei Xuan's waiter in the dark, and hung up the ivory waist card, and then followed the crowd out of the palace and slowly walked towards the Chengyou Gate.

Near the Chengyou Gate, there are several dilapidated palaces that are the places where the Tai Hospital concentrates on cooking medicinal materials, and now although the snow covers the eaves, you can still vaguely see the gorgeous scenery at the beginning.

For fear of being discovered, the three of them deliberately avoided some crowds, and walked around the thorny low forest, the cold wind blowing the people's bodies, dragging long and mottled shadows in the snow.

Suddenly, Ji You's complexion changed, and he grabbed the other two in time-

"Be careful, there's a strange noise in the woods!"

Mei Xuan's face immediately turned pale with fright, "In...... Where? “

"It turns out that Xiaomei, you are afraid of ghosts and the dark!"

Ji You joked with a smile, completely ignorant of life and death.

"No, there's anyone in the woods who is struggling!"

Dan Li listened for a moment, and his face was also grim!

The three of them were curious, and tiptoed into the vicinity of the bushes in the low forest, and when they saw it, they were so shocked that the blood all over their bodies seemed to flow backwards-

Under the reflection of the snow light, Ruan Qi's clothes were torn, revealing a fair and tender **, and he struggled desperately under the suppression of the four black-clothed men!
