Chapter 5

Shen Yuzhou's two sentences made the entire greenhouse hall silent.

The Cui family thought that Shen Yuzhou would not be able to refuse the concubine's marriage in public, but who knew that he was so ruthless, and his military exploits made it impossible to reprimand at all.

The scene fell cold for a moment.

"In that case, then the palace will no longer be forced." Concubine Cui forced a smile, "I don't know which daughter it is?" Let General Shen take it to heart so much, this palace is willing to be an adult, and it is not bad to talk about it for the general. ”

Shen Yuzhou's tone was gentle, "It's just wishful thinking on the part of the minister, I don't want to disturb the beauty, thank you to the concubine." ”

After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Concubine Cui to say anything, he saluted and sat down again. When Concubine Cui saw it, her visible smile stiffened a lot.

Xiao Yunjiao has always been at odds with Concubine Cui, seeing that Concubine Cui was deflated, her face finally stretched a little, "Your Majesty, seeing that the hour is almost up, presumably the lights outside are blazing, quickly tell us to go out and enjoy the lanterns." ”

Xiao Xunguang nodded, "The annual Shangyuan Festival, the outside of the palace is much more lively than this, you Aiqing drink this cup, go out of the palace with your family to enjoy the lanterns." ”

Xiao Yunjiao stayed with Xiao Xunguang for a long time, and it was already half of the night when he left the palace. Even so, the city is not deserted at all.

On the Shangyuan Festival, the streets and alleys are lit up like day, and the east and west cities are especially impressive.

At night, all kinds of lanterns gild the surrounding pavilions with a layer of gold. The crowded crowd brings out the festive atmosphere to the extreme.

When entering the palace, the lamp market had not yet started, and Xiao Yunjiao could still take a car, but it became difficult to take a car when leaving the palace.

She simply decided to walk back to the princess's mansion and see the bright lights of the East Market.

Without the princess's guard of honor, there are many fewer guards on the bright side around, and Xiao Yunjiao is not too high up like a young lady in a house.

However, her appearance and bearing still provoked tourists and vendors to turn back frequently.

"Girl, let's take a look at our lanterns here, they are all the latest styles, and they add even more brilliance in your hand!" The vendor next to him shouted loudly.

Other vendors are not far behind, "Come and see our family's latest style of peony lanterns, the girls are so beautiful, you have to take the peony lanterns to look good." ”

"Look at me, look at me, the pattern on my lamp, but everyone paints it!"

"My beauty lamp looks better......

The surrounding vendors were soliciting, and at this time, they only heard a gong, "The Lantern Riddle Conference of Wanwu Pavilion has begun!" ”

Lantern riddle conference?

Xiao Yunjiao was a little surprised, thinking that these activities should have ended a long time ago, but she didn't expect that she could catch up with the freshness.

So she immediately walked to the place where there was a lot of traffic.

Primrose guarded her tightly to her left and right, but did not let the crowd get to the corner of the princess's clothes. Xiao Yunjiao also walked smoothly to the front row.

The guys of Wanwu Pavilion said auspicious words in Gaosheng: "You appreciate your face, you have a lot of blessings and longevity, our store has specially prepared a lot of lanterns to make colorful heads." Whoever guesses the riddle next to it correctly will get it. ”

I saw a tall multi-layered wooden frame behind the guy, and many lanterns hung on each floor. The lantern hangs in the shape of a mountain, and the higher it goes, the more exquisite the shape, and the more difficult the corresponding riddle is.

Hanging at the top is a lantern of eight immortals.

The guy was still introducing loudly: "This Eight Immortal Lantern is not an ordinary lantern, it is strange that it does not use a skeleton in the whole body, but is made of knife carving and needle pricking." It is said that the talented boy in a village in the south got lost at night, and he was led by a beautiful fairy to return home with this kind of 'fairy lantern'. ”

The people around who watched the excitement were frequently amazed, and Xiao Yunjiao also watched the eight immortal lanterns with great interest.

Nowadays, the lanterns are mostly made of bamboo strips of bones, plain paper is the skin, making various shapes, and then painting a variety of patterns, which is also exquisite.

The eight immortal lanterns are red and have two layers of pavilions, a circle of flowers and plants on the first floor, and colorful butterflies surround it. The second floor is the appearance of the octagonal pavilion, and if you look closely, there are eight immortals with different postures sitting in the pavilion, or drinking, or playing chess, or drumming, or chatting, and the facial movements and even the folds on the clothes are lifelike.

What's even more strange is that there is not a single bamboo strip on the whole body, and this lamp is not made of light plain paper, and there are some heavy papers, and there are countless small holes carved out of the paper, and the light is emitted through those small holes.

Xiao Yunjiao looked at it for a while, and also felt that it was very novel and interesting. But he was even more curious, such a good thing, the Pavilion of All Things actually got it before the palace. Although it is not a precious thing, it can be taken out casually as a lottery head......

The proprietor of this Pavilion of Everything...... It's amazing.

Just as he was thinking, a disdainful voice came out of the crowdβ€”

"The lamp is a novelty, but it's too much to make up a fairy to guide the way, right? Or have you seen the fairy? Why don't you tell everyone what it looks like? ”

Xiao Yunjiao looked for a sound, but saw an acquaintance, Li Qingrui, the daughter of Li Shangshu's family.

It was an ordinary person not far from her who spoke.

The guy wanted to praise his own color head, but he didn't expect that there was a stunned person in the audience, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he pointed to the direction of Xiao Yunjiao and said: "I haven't seen that fairy, but it is said that the snow-skinned flower is unforgettable, and it should be the appearance of this girl." ”

When he said this, everyone present looked at Xiao Yunjiao, and the person who questioned the guy's words had nothing to say, only Li Qingrui had a complicated expression and was reluctant to salute-

Before he lowered his head, he was stopped by the guards of the princess's mansion who came out of nowhere, and bent his knees down.

"The princess doesn't want to make a noise, and the young lady doesn't have to be polite."

The guard saw that she would not affect Xiao Yunjiao, and disappeared into the crowd silently as when she came.

"You can start guessing the riddle, just take off the riddle on the lamp and hand it to the guy in the store."

As soon as everyone heard this, they scattered in front of the wooden frame to guess the riddle, and the primrose followed Xiao Yunjiao, and her eyes couldn't help but glance over there.

"Just guess if you want." Xiao Yunjiao smiled and spoke.

Primrose has been by her side since she was a child, and there are few such opportunities.

Seeing that she was still a little hesitant, Xiao Yunjiao reached out and pushed her back with a slight force, pushing the person down before the lantern, "Go play." ”

The mystery is difficult and easy, and soon the crowd of onlookers left with the lantern in twos and threes, and even the primrose happily took back a rabbit lamp to Xiao Yunjiao. Only a few lanterns that no one guessed were still hanging on the wooden shelves, including the Eight Immortals lantern.

"Thousands of miles with you don't love home, no wine, no food, no tea, no water, fire, knives and guns are not afraid, and you can't see it at sunset." Xiao Yunjiao slowly opened his mouth and read out the riddle on the Eight Immortal Lanterns, thought for a moment, and had the answer.

She told Primrose the answer, and was about to ask her to pick the lantern at the top, but in the blink of an eye, a fellow shouted loudly: "This boy has guessed the riddle of the Eight Immortal Lanterns." ”

Without waiting for her to look for it, she turned her head and saw that the eight immortal lanterns were already in front of her.

The boy with the lantern smiled warmly.

"The lantern increases the beauty, I don't know if I have the honor to carry the lantern for the girl?"

Xiao Yunjiao was stunned for a moment, and then hooked his lips and smiled, "Then there is Lao Gongzi." ”

Under the moonlight, the two stood side by side, walking slowly, attracting a burst of envy around them, as a good story of which young lady.

"Why are you here?" Xiao Yunjiao asked calmly.

"Willow Creek's business has been done."

The man carried the lamp, strolling beside Xiao Yunjiao, with a light smile on the corner of his mouth, and said without squinting, saying that the wind and horses and cows were incompatible, it was Jiang Yiheng who should lie in the princess's mansion to recuperate.

"Oh?" Xiao Yunjiao's eyebrows rose slightly, "What did he say?" ”

"The one who taught him to attract the princess with the sound of the piano was a guest he met in the Pavilion of All Things." Jiang Yiheng kept walking, and relayed the matter from Liu Xi's inquiry to Xiao Yunjiao.

"I have checked his life experience, there is no problem, he is the child of a prostitute, and later learned a good piano skill and became a violinist in Feixu Building. It was when I went to the Wanwu Pavilion with the guests to watch the auction that I overheard that the princess liked the handsome and talented man, so she had the courage to stroke the piano in the place where the princess's carriage passed, and then entered the princess's mansion. ”

"Overheard?" Xiao Yunjiao lowered his eyes and thought, "I'm afraid that the listener is unintentional, and the speaker is intentional......"

"Jiang Yiheng." She suddenly opened her mouth and called the name of the person next to her, "Help me." ”

Jiang Yiheng was stunned for a moment, his arm was reflected before his brain and he held Xiao Yunjiao's arm, and then he felt that his hand was heavy, and then he saw that Xiao Yunjiao was already half of his arm......

But in a breath, he changed into a doting look, and said softly: "The princess is greedy again." ”

Xiao Yunjiao didn't speak, leaned on him and walked forward, and before he could take a few steps, he was blocked by a "wall".

In the next second, she was helped up straight by this wall surnamed Shen Yuzhou with an undeniable strength.

"What's wrong with the princess?" Shen Li Da Infinite Wall Yu Zhou said with a straight face, "There are many noisy people here, and the minister escorts the princess back to the house." ”

then stood impartially between Xiao Yunjiao and Jiang Yiheng,

Tilting his head, he gave Jiang Yiheng the back of his head, "Let's go." ”

Xiao Yunjiao was choked by this reckless man's actions for a while before he realized that he was "drunk", and leaned on the primrose on the other side of him with his forehead, humming and chirping, "I'm so dizzy, primrose, let's go back quickly." ”

When Primrose saw the princess like this, she knew that she was definitely going to run first, so she hurriedly helped Xiao Yunjiao Yinghe, "Princess, let's go to the front and take the car, the car has been following on the path." ”

Shen Yuzhou stood in place and looked at the backs of the two of them for a while and turned to look at Jiang Yiheng, "No matter how beautiful the lantern is, for the princess, it is only fresh for two or three days." ”

These words were a little harsh, but Jiang Yiheng still smiled, "It is Jiang's honor to be able to carry a lantern for the princess, and as for what this lamp looks like, it has to enter the eyes of the princess." ”

After speaking, he hugged his fists, "The princess is still waiting, Jiang said goodbye." ”

Shen Yuzhou didn't wait for him to salute, and took the lead in catching up with the carriage of the princess's mansion with his long legs behind his back.

The carriage walked slowly on the bluestone road, and Jiang Yiheng in the car gave Xiao Yunjiao a meaningful smile.

Xiao Yunjiao glanced at him, looked at the figure of the carriage following the carriage outside the window when the curtain was undulating, and couldn't help but weakly support his forehead......

My head is really starting to hurt! This reckless man, don't you know that there are many eyeliners in the city? What is he going to do!
