Shangyuan Festival.

Due to the peaceful years, there was no war in the neighborhood, the curfew was postponed for two hours, and a long and wide street was vacated to hold the Shangyuan Festival Lantern Festival for the subjects to play.

Under the starry night, a long and wide street in the capital is very lively, and above the sky, hanging like a starry lantern.

With the arrival of several carriages, the Cheng family got down from the carriage one after another.

Then they formed groups and wandered through the noisy streets.

Sang Shunhua saw Xiao Yuanyi standing in place, looking at Cheng Shaoshang who was gradually moving away, and said with a smile:

"This is a good Shu brocade, and it can only be lined with such a complexion."

I saw Cheng Shaoshang wearing a red Shu brocade, covered with a pure white fox fur, the moonlight slipped from her bun and cheeks, her dark brown eyes shone in the autumn water, and her red lips bloomed like flowers.

Xiao Yuanyi looked at her:

"Woman, you only give curls and don't give curtains, isn't this favoritism?"

Sang Shunhua replied with a smile:

"This is a congratulatory gift for Jiaci's birthday, only one piece, and I don't want to give more."

Xiao Yuanyi didn't say anything about this, just walked to Cheng Ji, who was walking with Cheng Shaoshang, and said softly:

"Auntie, you were in the Ge family before, and now it's the first time to come to the Shangyuan Festival Lantern Festival in the capital, the eldest aunt will take you around, and the front is lively."

After speaking, he took Cheng Ji's hand affectionately and walked away.

Cheng Shaoshang's gloomy and lost expression was clearly visible, and Sang Shunhua who was watching it was also astringent, not far away Cheng Shi and her second brother Cheng Song, and the third brother Cheng Shaogong saw this scene, and their faces couldn't help but stagnate.

Immediately, Cheng Shaogong, who was a little shorter, shouted:

"Curl, go, brother take you to see the lights."

Cheng Song shouted:

"Yes, go."

Cheng Shi also began to coax her:

"Father will go with you, too."

In this way, the father and son doted on Cheng Shaoshang and took him to the Lantern Festival.

After shopping for a while, the family came to the stall one after another.

When Cheng Shi went to boast about Mrs. Cheng's hairpin, and the two brothers Cheng Song were attracted by other stalls, Cheng Shaoshang suddenly saw his mother choosing a hairpin for Cheng Ji with a smile, and his face was sad for no reason.

I couldn't help but turn my head, and when I looked into the distance, I saw the lights, although the crowd was moving, I still found a figure dressed in a plain white robe, which made me extremely familiar.

As far as she could see, there was only one person, and after being stunned, her delicate little face and incomparably smart eyes were full of indescribable happiness.

Yang Jiao walked in front of Cheng Shaoshang and said softly:

"Life can't be as good as you think, but it's not as bad as you think."

"After all, people live a lifetime and there are many things worth loving, don't be discouraged because one is not satisfied."

As he spoke, a red hosta like a phoenix spreading its wings was inserted into Cheng Shaoshang's bun.

Then he looked up and down and nodded:

"It's not bad, it's full of vitality when you look at it, and it's a lot brighter."

Cheng Shaoshang smiled and said:

"I remember if you like to be quiet or not, why did you come to see the Lantern Festival on the Metaverse?"

Yang Jiao's eyebrows raised slightly:

"Look at a good show, the lord of Yuchang County of King Ruyang is happy with Ling Budo, and Ling Budo has no good impression of him, so he specially arranged a good show for heroes to save the beauty tonight."

Cheng Shaoshang showed a look of interest, but seemed to remember something:

"I remember you weren't that boring."

Yang Jiao gently patted her little brain:

"Maybe someone took it to break it."

Cheng Shaoshang looked unhappy, and immediately said seriously:

"If you wronged a good person, I will punish you and take me to see it later, now let's go for a visit to the Lantern Festival first."

After that, her eyes lit up, and she dragged Yang Jiao's sleeve towards a restaurant.

"Tianjia Restaurant actually sells lanterns, it's so strange, and I don't know how much it costs."

Yang Jiao looked at the restaurant full of lanterns and said:

"This is a lantern riddle, and those who guess correctly can get a lantern."

The corners of Cheng Shaoshang's mouth twitched:

"It was a lantern riddle, what does it mean?"

Yang Jiao glanced at her:

"If you can't guess, it's not interesting, if you guess right, you can be interesting if you appear in front of people and show your fame."

Cheng Shaoshang smiled and whispered:

"Rather than guessing lantern riddles, I want to learn your illusions, how did you do it, you obviously have a color that almost overshadowed the heavens and the earth, but others just can't notice you."

"If I learn your illusion, then no matter what I want to do from now on, won't I be able to do it without knowing it."

At this time, Tianjia Restaurant gathered many people who came to guess the lantern riddles, most of them were girls, and they kept chanting:

"Yuan Gongzi will definitely come again to guess the lantern riddle this year."

"That's right, Yuan Gongzi has guessed all the riddles in Tianjia Restaurant for three years, and he shouldn't miss them this year, and I don't know if he can guess them all this time?"

"Yuan Shan saw that Gongzi studied under the great Confucianism of Bailu Mountain, three years ago, when the court called the world's great Confucianism to debate the scriptures, he was eighteen years old, and he was famous for the capital, and he was known as the first genius in the capital.

Cheng Shaoshang listened to the small talk of the crowd and said very puzzledly:

"How boring is this Yuan Gongzi, he has guessed all of them for three years, and he still has to guess."

As soon as she spoke, she leaned over and whispered:

"I said that you have been raised in the palace since you were a child, and you are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and you can also use many skills such as martial arts, winemaking, and cooking, why are you so obscure?"

"You must know that there was Ling Budo like you in the past, he was already a famous young general, and then there was Yuan Shanjian, who was full of wealth, and he was also known as the first genius in the capital."

Yang Jiao smiled and asked:

"Do you think it's better for me to be famous all over the world, or to be obscure?"

Cheng Shaoshang replied without the slightest hesitation:

"Of course, it's better to be obscure."

As she spoke, she secretly added a sentence in her heart:

"If you are famous all over the world, you must not be remembered by the girls all over the world, and provoke all kinds of peach blossoms."

Cheng Shaoshang grabbed Yang Jiao's sleeve and said:

"It's okay not to guess the riddles, and besides, my father brought me the most famous Qianli drunk in Tianjia Restaurant before, which is far worse than the peach blossom drunk you brewed, so you should take me to the play."

After a while, the two of them were near an arched bridge, and they saw a woman dressed in yellow with a beautiful face being held by the stars of the servants and maids.

Yang Jiao said lightly:

"This is the only granddaughter of the prince of Ruyang, due to the early death of her parents, she grew up in the palm of her hand since she was a child, she can be described as arrogant, because of her infatuation with Ling Budo, today I heard his traces, and I was ready to use the pretense of falling into the water when he passed by here, and achieved a good story of the capital."

After Cheng Shaoshang heard this, he couldn't help but say the truth:

"I only heard that Ling Budo is an invincible and invincible general, but I didn't expect that he could be so admired by the county lord, sure enough, it is easy to provoke peach blossoms when he is famous all over the world."

As soon as she finished speaking, her pretty face was stunned, but she felt Yang Jiao's meaningful eyes, and she couldn't help but blush her cheeks, and she pretended to be calm and coughed lightly:

"In my opinion, the river under this bridge is not up to the waist at most, how can Ling Budo not see through such a little trick."

Yang Jiao looked into the distance:

"Wait and see what happens, and you can know the result."
