Chapter 689: Fifteen Nights of Tranquility
The moment you step into the mountain gate, Lucius feels a unique aura permeating the entire shrine, giving people a warm feeling of returning to his mother's arms.
As he strolled through the courtyard of the shrine, he naturally relaxed, threw away all the troubles in his heart, and took a deep breath like a greedy drinker, enjoying the charming and warm atmosphere that permeated the shrine, which made Lecius intoxicated and unwilling to wake up for a long time.
After following Asukina, after passing through the torii, he did not directly enter the main hall of the shrine, but followed Assuna directly around the main hall and walked through the corridor with various paper lamps to the backyard of the shrine.
Dotted with candlelight, by the pond in the shrine's backyard, Sakura Rinko and Yuko Jingu kneel on a sheet of felt, and various foods are laid out in front of them.
Seeing that Lucius was coming under the guidance of Asukina, Sakura Rinko and Yuko Jingu quickly got up to greet him, bowed down to Lucius, and then led Lucius into the backyard and took him to the small pond, Yuko Jingu and Assuna served Lucius to sit down, and they sat down after Sakura Rinko sat down.
Lucius looked at the arrangement around the small pond, and then at the various kinds of food placed in front of him, and asked with some puzzlement, "What do you mean by this?
The three women immediately laughed when they heard this, and Tomorrow Nai deliberately mocked: "I really can't imagine that His Royal Highness Lucius, who claims to be all-knowing and all-powerful, would not know that today is the fifteenth night in the East?"
"Fifteen nights?" Lucius was a little puzzled, raised his head and looked at the bright full moon in the sky, and suddenly remembered some legends about the Oriental Festival, and suddenly said: "I know, you are talking about the Mid-Autumn Festival, right?
Hearing this, Yuko Jingu smiled and nodded, picked up a Jiangmi dumpling and handed it to Lucius and said, "Your Highness, please taste it, this is the Jiangmi dumpling that Fusang only makes in the Mid-Autumn Festival." ”
I saw Yuko Shingu holding a dumpling in her hand and handing it to her lips. Lucius wanted to reach out and take it, but seeing that Yuko Kamiya didn't seem to mean to hand it to him, but wanted to feed it directly to his mouth, he hesitated for a moment, but Lucius didn't object, opened his mouth and took a bite.
Yuko Jingu's movements were very delicate, and while Lucius took a bite, she dragged Emi Dango's hand and quickly reached under Lucius's chin and bit Lucius away. Fallen debris and juice are caught.
Then, he fed Lucius a few more bites, until the Jiangmi dumpling was eaten by Lucius, and then he withdrew his hands to wipe off the residue and juice on his hands, and wiped the corners of Lucius's mouth clean.
Seeing that Yuko Kamiya was like a little daughter-in-law, actually serving Lucius so meticulously, Sakura Rinko and Assuna next to her were dumbfounded, and at the same time, Sakura Rinko felt unhappy in her heart.
Sakura Rinko originally thought that what she had just done should be done by herself, and the reason why she let go of her status as an emperor. Specially came to the shrine to feast on Lucius, and even did not hesitate to change into the clothes of the shrine maiden, just to get along with Lucius and do what Yuko Shingu did.
After Yuko Shingu withdrew her hand. Sakura Rinko couldn't help but sneer and said, "Hehe, I really can't imagine that the Imperial Household Master of the Shrine will have such a little woman's side." If others see this, I'm afraid they will be fascinated one by one, and they will obey you, right?"
Listened to Sakura Rinko's words. Yuko Kamiya was stunned for a moment, and quickly figured out the irony implied in the other party's words, knowing that Sakura Rinko was deliberately talking about her being a shrine maiden.
If it were another time, maybe Yuko Jingu would not dare to contradict Sakura Rinko, after all, the other party is the emperor, a descendant of the real gods, and she herself is just the palace secretary of the Jingu.
But today is different, seeing Sakura Rinko put down her status as emperor, brought her own handmade zuò rice dumplings and other food, came to the shrine to feast on Lucius, and also changed into the clothes that only women in the royal family should wear when entering the shrine, Sakura Rinko's thoughts can be said to be self-evident.
At this time, seeing the other party's unhappy expression, Yuko Jingu immediately understood that Sakura Rinko felt jealous because of her behavior just now.
Jingu Yuko didn't feel annoyed, but smiled and said, "Hehe, it looks like you want to feed Youzi too, right? ”
As she spoke, Yuko Shingu picked up a rice dumpling and sent it directly to Sakura Rinko's mouth, looking like she really wanted to feed Sakura Rinko.
Sakura Rinko suddenly felt embarrassed when she saw this, and quickly avoided Yuko Shinguya, and sat upright: "Hey, what kind of system are you, Yuko Shinmiya, are you still a Miyachichi?" Look at your frivolous appearance, hum, I now feel that it is a little inappropriate for you to become the Miyachiji." ”
Seeing Sakura Rinko put on the posture of the emperor, Yuko Jingu was not afraid at all, but teased: "Your Majesty, didn't you say that there is no emperor here today? ”
When Yuko Shingu said this, Sakura Rinko was speechless for a while, and she could only put down her shelf and say, "Okay, okay, there is no emperor here today, and there is no palace secretary, we just get together as friends to spend fifteen nights, so it's okay, right?"
Yuko Jingu put down the Dejiang rice dumplings in her hand, clapped her hands excitedly and said, "Okay, okay, let's forget about jì qiē for a while and enjoy this night." ”
With that, Yuko Jingu stood up and walked to the small pond, taking off the clogs on her feet by the edge of the pond, and then gently touching the water with her toes, sparkling and reflecting the moonlight.
Then I saw Yuko Shingu take a step, stepped directly into the small pond, stood on the water surface of the pond and walked on the waves, slowly walked to the center of the small pond, and finally stepped on the bright moon reflected in the center of the pond, the ripples on the water surface disappeared instantly, and the water surface of the entire pond was smooth and entered.
At this moment, the moonlight in the sky sprinkled, and Yuko Jingu was like a fairy from the Moon Palace, standing on a bright moon and dancing.
As Yuko Shingu danced, suddenly a slight musical sound sounded in the backyard, and the surrounding candlelight suddenly dimmed, leaving only the moonlight emitted by the small pond in the entire backyard.
A unique hazy beauty makes everyone feel as if they are in a dream, and the qiē in front of them is like a dream, as if the real is within reach, but it also gives people a feeling of unreality, making people dare not reach out to touch, afraid that as long as they stretch out their hands, the beautiful dream will be shattered.
Gradually, Lucius completely forgot about his worries and fully integrated into the atmosphere of the backyard, watching Yuko Jingu dance in the pond while enjoying the service of Sakura Rinko and Asukina.
The cups collided, and the glass of wine was drunk by Lucius, and soon he began to get drunk, reaching out and taking Sakura Rinko into his arms, while resting his head on Asukina's arms.
Standing in the corridor not far away, No. 3 and No. 4 were a little surprised when they saw the scene in Lucius's backyard, and wanted to rush out to wake up Lucius, worried that Lucius would be confused and delirious, and even the emperor's black hand completely confused Lucius.
But before No. 4 rushed out, Mingtang suddenly appeared to stop No. 4, and whispered: "You can't go, no one can disturb Your Highness now." ”
No. 4 looked at Mingtang who rushed out to stop him, and then looked at the gradually obscene scene by the small pond, and couldn't help but ask Mingtang: "You, what do you want to do?
Mingtang turned his head to look at the small pond and saw that Lucius had completely relaxed, and did some things that he usually restrained himself from drunkenness, and said something that he usually never said.
Suddenly, Ming Tang remembered the scene one afternoon before, when the Fuso Emperor found him and knelt in front of him and begged for him, when the emperor said, "I pray for the help of the great god, I actually know that you are not Susanoo, but I still hope that you can help me." ”
The emperor needs Mingtang to do it very simply, but what the emperor wants to do is very crazy, Mingtang also hesitated, but in the end she was moved by the emperor and agreed to help the emperor.
Mingtang looked at No. 4, whispered the matter to No. 4, and sighed: "Actually, I don't think this is bad for His Highness, that emperor is a woman after all, if she abdicates, how can Fusang still control the hands of His Highness? ”
After listening to Mingtang's account, No. 4 looked at the small pond with some surprise, and only lowered his voice for a long time and said, "But, but, is His Highness really willing?"
Mingtang turned his head and glanced at it, and said with a smile: "Actually, for Lucius, he also admires Sakura Rinko in his heart, but he can't give Sakura Rinko anything, and it's even more impossible to take Sakura Rinko away from Fuso, the two of them have gone through certain things, maybe this is an opportunity for their hearts to communicate." ”
No. 4 was finally persuaded by Mingtang to stop bothering Lucius, but took No. 3 out of the backyard and stood in front of the mountain gate of the shrine like a guard, guarding the shrine in the mountains.
Seeing that he had persuaded No. 4, Mingtang smiled and turned around to leave, but at this moment, Lucius's voice came: "Mingtang, don't take it as an example, I don't want you to make your own decisions again." ”
Hearing the sudden sound, Mingtang was stunned for a moment, turned his head in horror to look, and found that the small pond had quieted down, Lucius and the three women had disappeared, and only the bright moonlight sprinkled on the pond was left in the small pond, and the felt and uneaten food by the pond were still there.
But Mingtang felt a chill, he knew very well that Lucius was not completely confused, maybe this time it was also Lucius himself who wanted to give himself a good rest.
So in the end, he didn't break it, and let Mingtang and Sakura Rinko do a qiē, and he can be regarded as a qiē and began to enjoy his rare peace, maybe after tonight, he will face the cruel reality again, and he will start to play with powerful opponents, but tonight Lucius needs to have a good rest.
