On the night of the Shangyuan Festival, Tianhao City was lit up everywhere, as bright as day.

The liveliest part of the city is the streets and alleys near the Dusk Rock Square in the north of the city, where people come and go.

When the carriage of the Marquis of Changning approached the Dusk Stone Square, it found a vacant place and stopped, and further on, the road had been closed due to the Lantern Festival of the Shangyuan Festival, so it could only be reached on foot.

The three sisters got out of the carriage and walked with the crowd in the direction of Dusk Stone Square with great interest.

There are many young men and women in the streets, most of them holding homemade or purchased lanterns in their hands, while a few are empty-handed and buying lanterns at roadside stalls.

"There are so many people today," Jiang Shuxin made a lotus lantern and held it in his hand and shook it slightly, "Eldest sister, I saw the disciples of our class just now." ”

Jiang Shuli answered with a smile, "When I get to Dusk Stone Square in a while, I'm afraid I can see more classmates from the academy." ”

"Miss!"

A familiar bright voice came from the side, and the three of them turned their heads to see that they were several first-class ladies from the Yingyue Building.

It was the moon lady who called Jiang Shuli, she was wearing a light blue elegant dress today, and her bright facial features were shining in the night.

"Moon Lady, An Niangzi, Snow Lady," Jiang Shuli asked with a smile, "You also come to participate in the Shangyuan Festival Lantern Festival?" Why don't you see Qi Niangzi and Mei Niang? ”

An Niangzi and Wan explained with a smile, "Mei Niang wants to take care of Xiao Yuelian, and Qi Niangzi went back to her parents' house, so the three of us came out." ”

Jiang Shuli bowed, remembering that Qi Niangzi took a vacation to return to her mother's house in the countryside for the New Year, and she had heard Mama Lu report to Ouyang's family.

After a few words of greeting, the three ladies retired to buy lanterns.

The three sisters Jiang Shuli continued to move forward, and after walking a few steps, she suddenly grabbed Jiang Shuxin and asked, "Third sister, look at the man in the silver brocade not far behind them, does it look like he is following them?" ”

When Jiang Shuxin heard this, he looked at it for a while, "Sister, I look like it." ”

Jiang Shuli summoned the green paper and whispered to her to find Zhao Yang, "Let Zhao Yang protect the safety of several first-class ladies." ”

The green paper departed in response.

The three of them continued on, and soon arrived at Duskstone Square.

The Shangyuan Festival Lantern Festival will be held at Dusk Rock Square.

In the huge square, many activity areas are arranged in the shape of the word "Hui", there are guessing lantern riddles, throwing pots, juggling, and laughter everywhere.

The two most sought-after activities are the 'Sky Lantern Picking' and the 'Flower Lantern Sky River'.

The 'Sky Lantern Picking' event is held in the middle of the Dusk Rock Plaza, which is a towering mountain of lanterns.

Only men can participate in this event, and participants climb up the hill, and the higher they climb, the better the lanterns they can get.

All lanterns have different blessings on them, and picking them can be used to pray for good luck for the year for your family and loved ones.

If you can climb to the top and pick the highest lantern, it is called a 'sky lantern', which indicates good luck for the year!

The 'Lantern Tianhe' activity, which corresponds to 'Picking Sky Lanterns', can only be participated by women.

The 'Flower Lantern Sky River' is an artificial river that surrounds the Twilight Rock Square, and in the middle of the river is a winding wooden bridge.

At the entrance, the women who participate in the event are asked to put their lanterns into the river and let them flow along the river.

Then step onto the wooden bridge and walk around the river around Duskstone Square.

During the process, everyone can choose one of the lanterns in the river as their own lucky lantern.

The blessing words on the lucky lantern also indicate good luck for the year.

'Flower Lantern Tianhe' is loved by the women of Tianhao City, because the queen mother will bring the palace concubines to release the sky lanterns every year.

The three sisters of Jiang Shuli walked around the twilight stone square, and when they were full of interest, they suddenly heard a chanting voice overhead, "The queen has arrived!" The lady lady has arrived! The good concubine has arrived! ”

When the voice fell, I saw three chariots in the air flying slowly and landing on a high platform in the Dusk Stone Square.

"'Lantern Tianhe' is about to begin." I don't know who said it, and suddenly the girls walked towards the 'Lantern Tianhe'.

"Let's go and see what kind of lanterns the queen brings this year, if you choose the lanterns prepared by the queen, you will have good luck this year!" Someone was excited.

"The lanterns prepared by the ladies in the palace are all covered up with spells," someone poured cold water, "Only when you go down to the Tianhe River will you reveal your true appearance, and you can't see it now." ”

"We might as well keep staring at the lantern when the queen mother puts down Tianhe, so that we can't make mistakes!" Someone is supporting.

Immediately, someone complained, "If this method works, can it still be your turn?" ”

"The lanterns of the ladies will blow a gust of wind after going down the Tianhe River, and when you can see it clearly, you don't know where to go!" There are well-wishers to explain.

"Shhhh

"Don't make any noise, the queen is down!"

Jiang Shuli's three sisters looked at it from afar.

The queen lady stepped out of the chariot gracefully, with an elegant smile on the corner of her mouth, and a lantern in her hand.

I saw that the lantern seemed to be shrouded in a layer of fog, which made people look down on the lantern.

"Flower lantern Tianhe," the queen mother walked towards Tianhe and put the lantern in her hand in the river, "I wish the people of Tianhao City a happy and prosperous life, peace and success." ”

Suddenly there was warm applause, and as soon as the queen's blessing voice fell, a warm wind blew across the river.

When I blinked again, I couldn't tell which one was the lantern put down by the queen's mother.

Countless lanterns flutter along the river, like stars in the sky.

Then Shu Guifei and Liang Guifei put down the lanterns.

At this point, the activity of 'Lantern Tianhe' officially began.

"Eldest sister, let's go put lanterns too."

Jiang Shuqi has been keeping a close eye on Concubine Shu's actions, and she is bound to get the lantern in her hand tonight.

The three of them followed the crowd to the entrance of the Tianhe River, put the lanterns in their hands into the river, and went on the wooden bridge.

While admiring the lanterns, chatting in a low voice, Jiang Shuli smiled at the corner of his mouth.

Jiang Shuqi couldn't hide his nervousness, and his eyes searched for the jade rabbit lantern in the middle of the river.

Sure enough, as expected, many people made jade rabbit lanterns and placed them on the river.

"Eldest sister, that lantern is so beautiful!" Jiang Shuxin pointed to a lantern floating not far away.

Jiang Shuli raised his eyes and couldn't help laughing.

It was a lantern with a painting of mountains, with a faint turquoise glow, which was not something that ordinary girls would like.

"That's the painting of the Cangli Mountains," Jiang Shuxin said with a smile, "Sister, I'll choose that one." ”

Jiang Shuli shook her head with a smile, these three sisters are bent on going to the sect to cultivate immortals, and even their tastes have become so strange.

She took the pole from the hook hanging on the side, handed it to Jiang Shuxin, and said with a smile, "Everyone only has one chance to choose, since you have chosen it, go and hook it." ”

"Wait!"

Jiang Shuqi suddenly let out an exclamation with excitement and excitement, "Eldest sister, third sister, you help me hook that lantern first!" ”
