Yuehua felt secretly funny in her heart, and she also approached seriously, and bowed down to Mo Gu Han.

Mo Guhan frowned impatiently, and snorted coldly, "Excuse me." ”

Yuehua was as good as a stream and stood up.

Concubine Ling held Mo Guhan's arm tightly from beginning to end, and even Yuehualai did not let go, let alone salute, only looked up with a pretty and bright face, and asked Mo Guhan unrelentingly: "Your Majesty, you haven't told us why you want to hang so many rabbit lanterns." ”

"That's it, that's it, Your Majesty, you have never worried about these trivial matters, how did you personally order it this year, there must be a reason for it." Ya Concubine echoed.

"This year is the New Year of the Rabbit God, so naturally it is time to hang rabbit lanterns."

Mo Guhan casually perfunctory the two.

"But this rabbit is too weird, isn't it? Where are you riding a tiger? Concubine Ling wrinkled her nose, obviously not believing.

"It's a secret." Mo Guhan coldly spit out a few words: "You can only understand, not speak." ”

Yuehua's heart moved, was he deliberately pleasing himself? Impossible, right? As an emperor above 10,000 people, he is worshiped by the world, how can he bother to please others, especially this person, she is Chu Yuehua.

She raised her eyes to look at Mo Guhan, and it happened that he also looked over, and the two met unexpectedly, but Mo Guhan's gaze jumped away in a panic.

Yuehua suddenly felt that she and Mo Guhan had a secret of their own, isolated from others, just like in the secluded realm of Nalanling, no one could enter, only belonging to the world of two people.

She lowered her head and smiled, secretly smug.

Ya Concubine looked at her, full of suspicion: "Does the queen mother know the reason?" ”

Yuehua shook her head, meaning something: "This palace is also wondering, how could a tiger be so majestic, how could he let a rabbit ride on his body and be presumptuous?" ”

Mo Gu glanced at Yuehua with a cold snort, and there was already a little annoyance in his voice: "One is willing to fight, and the other is willing to suffer, naturally the tiger is too stupid, and the rabbit is tricky." ”

Yuehua pursed her lips and smiled contentedly, everyone only felt as if they were listening to a dumb riddle, and the second monk was puzzled.

Concubine Ling looked at the two of them, and her heart was even more sour, and she pursed her lips and said critically: "How did the queen mother wear a dress with a crane, don't you know how to go west by crane?" On a good day, this is the most unlucky. ”

Mo Guhan heard that Concubine Ling had nothing to do, and provoked trouble for no reason, glanced at her, and her face sank, but Concubine Ling didn't realize it.

Yuehua raised her hand indifferently, and the cloak like rippling water gently rippled a few times, and the red-crowned crane also seemed to flutter its wings and want to fly: "But this palace has heard that the turtle is long-lived, this crane is a long-lived thing, and it is naturally a good luck for the emperor to wear it today." ”

Ya Concubine has always been the only concubine who is the head of the horse, seeing that the moon has a bright tongue and a lotus, and has the upper hand, Mo Guhan looked unhappy again, and immediately urged to change the topic: "The hour is not early, everything is ready, let's start dialing the lamp." ”

Yuehua naturally didn't want to bother to see Concubine Ling in general.

The lamps have already been prepared, the kerosene sawdust is mixed well, wrapped in colorful paper with tie-dyeing, tied out in the shape of flowers, and placed in the basket, carried by the palace people, and each to the door of the palace, put a bag on the left and right, and ignite it with a torch.

The concubines of the harem took this matter as fun, and they lost their pious mentality and couldn't suppress their excitement.

Mo Guhan quietly broke free of Concubine Ling's hand, walked slower and slower, and then walked side by side with Yuehua.

In the hustle and bustle, the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while, Yuehua lowered her head, and could feel a trace of ambiguity surging between the two. Mo Guhan's gaze was like a snail's tentacles, gently reaching towards her, and cautiously, after touching her, he retracted, wanting to speak and stop.

The steps of the two were also inconsistent, and Yuehua Lian's steps moved lightly, small and elegant. Mo Guhan's steps were bigger, striding with his head held high, at first like a leisurely stroll, and then he had to slow down in order to be parallel to Yuehua, with a deliberate pause, the sleeve robe swayed, and the corners of the sleeves would inadvertently skim Yuehua's cloak.

He was so calm that Yuehua had a slight expectation in his heart, but he also enjoyed such inexplicable feelings. It's like a new acquaintance, and a good feeling slowly sprouts from the soil, struggling to stretch out the leaves, blooming a tender green color full of business.

For the first time, she felt that this cold and lonely man also had such a naïve and shy side, and felt cute, ridiculous, and angry from the bottom of her heart. The fire that has been held in the stomach for these days has long since disappeared.

She waited quietly for Mo Guhan to speak first.

The concubine and concubine Ling in front of them found the topic of amusement again, you say a word, I say a word, and I am excited.

Concubine Ling suddenly turned her head and asked Mo Guhan: "Your Majesty, is it true that Sister Ya Concubine said that yesterday was the day when a mouse married a girl?" How can a rat get married? ”

Mo Guhan's footsteps paused, he had lived in the deep palace for a long time, where would he know these folk anecdotes: "Hundreds of miles of different customs, the ancestral home of Ya Concubine is in Jiangnan, it may be just a folk legend in the Jiangnan area, I have never heard of it." ”

Ya Concubine turned her head and said solemnly: "This is true, didn't you hear the sound of banging gongs and basins last night?" In our hometown, yesterday every household had to fry sesame candy to congratulate the mice. ”

Mo Guhan felt rare, and took the opportunity to break the silence between him and Yuehua: "The queen has always been well-informed, and she should have heard of it." ”

Yuehua felt a little proud in her heart, pursed her lips and said: "Concubine Ling was born in a big house, and I haven't seen a mouse before, how do you know these customs?" However, in the capital, the rat marries a girl a few days later, and the twenty-fifth square of the first month is the day when the rat marries a girl. ”

"Isn't this creature just like a man?" Concubine Ling covered her mouth and grinned: "Is it possible to have a banquet and a cave room?" Is the groom of this rat's family happy to have three wives and four concubines? ”

Yuehua shook her head and said colorfully: "I heard that the weasel was the matchmaker and stole a child's tiger head shoes to make a sedan chair, and a group of mice blew and blew and carried this mouse bride into the old cat's house. ”

It's rare that Concubine Ling didn't have a-for-tat confrontation with Yuehua, but she just found it interesting: "Why is this mouse so stupid that he marries his daughter to an old cat?" Didn't you take the initiative to send it to the door to worship the Five Organs Temple? ”

"Then let's see if this old cat understands the amorous?" Lan Cairen's glass-like eyes turned and joked slyly: "What if you are lucky enough to meet a merry old cat?" If you are full of water, where can you give up this kind of 'eating' method? ”

Several people laughed and trembled, pointing at Lan Cairen's nose with great joy.

Ya Concubine took over: "Where we are, the groom is a big mouse riding a toad. ”

Lan Cairen said coquettishly: "On the day when we have a mouse marrying a girl, we need to steam the mouse bun and throw it into the bride's room through the window, and the bride will get pregnant and give birth to a baby. ”

Several people laughed and joked together, and it was unprecedentedly harmonious.

Ya Concubine asked: "I really don't know where Lan Cairen is from?" Where is this custom? Why have I never heard you mention it? ”

"I have been wandering from place to place, but I have forgotten where this is the custom." Lan Cairen pretended to think for a moment, and then said with a smile.

Seeing that the masters were in a good mood, the palace people who were waiting also talked about many folklore allusions, and many anecdotes, which were spread so miraculously that they talked about it on a whim.

Mo Guhan saw that a few people were talking and laughing in front of him, his body leaned towards Yuehua slightly, and said in a voice of only two people: "On the twenty-fifth day, remember to open the window at night." ”

"Why?" Yuehua asked puzzled.

"Naturally, it's a rat bun for you."

The voice was not loud, others couldn't hear it, Yuehua was still embarrassed with a big red face, and "snorted" in a low voice, turning her head to ignore him, but her heart was like mixed honey.

The atmosphere between the two was no longer so awkward, and Mo Guhan's hand in his wide-sleeved robe quietly reached out and held her fingertips.

Yuehua's body was shocked, and she was a little shy for no reason, and she pulled her fingertips out in a panic, and a melting smile bloomed at the bottom of her eyes.

"Afraid of what? Is it possible to treat me as the old cat? Mo Guhan smiled and teased, the smile reached the bottom of his eyes, blooming with a sparkling glow: "I'm afraid that I will eat you, aren't you?" I know that you dislike me for being tasteless, and I won't coax you, and I'm not just a good cat who understands amorous feelings. ”

Yuehua couldn't hold back any longer, "poof" laughed out loud, and in an instant, in Mo Guhan's eyes, it was like a fire tree and silver flowers blooming all over the sky, full of colors, and she couldn't help but look stunned.

Concubine Ling and Concubine Ya, who were playing happily in front, paused, and the sound of chattering gradually lowered, and then Lan Cairen also stopped, turned his head and glanced in the direction of the two.

Yuehua asked in surprise, "What's wrong?" ”

Lan Cairen said softly: "It's Concubine He's Niangniang." ”

Concubine Crane?

Yuehua suddenly thought that it seemed that she hadn't seen her since her accident. Concubine Crane was in a bad mood at first, and she often fell and beaten, and occasionally it would reach her ears. In the past few days, it seems that the leisurely hall has suddenly quieted down, and the palace people have come in and out, lightly, and there is not even a sound.

Today, no one seems to invite the lamp, and in just a few days, she has been forgotten.

Yuehua took two steps forward, and saw that the group had unconsciously walked to the big Buddha hall behind the Ci'an Palace, which was the place where the queen mothers and concubines of the past dynasties devoted themselves to worshiping the Buddha.

Today's Shangyuan Festival, the front of the palace is brightly lit and the incense is around.

In the midst of the lights, a thin woman kneeling on the platform with a green gauze smock, her long hair like a waterfall, swerved down and scattered on her weak shoulders. She folded her hands and whispered reverently. Although it was a silhouette and covered with green veil, Yuehua also recognized Concubine He's bearing at a glance.

The green smoke curled and entwined above her head, and her whole person was shrouded in hazy light and shadow, quiet and peaceful, just like in the fairyland of Sanskrit singing, life transcended the dust of the world and became noble.
