Chapter 13: The Lantern Festival (2)

Then we watched the Lantern Festival together, we guessed the lantern riddles together, boated on the lake together, discussed a lot of interesting things in the world, and also tasted the food of the mortal world. We watched the departure of Kyoto from Xingyang Tower, the lights of thousands of homes, and the family reunion. The people were full of praise for Mochen, the prince who left the country.

A bell rang, the people knelt down one after another, Chongyang Tower was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, standing on top of the city tower, slightly tired in his eyes, and what made people stop was the person next to the emperor, a slender figure, a man who had a life of elegance, danger, handsomeness and charm, from his eyes revealed great ambition, as if looking down on the world and looking down on all beings. There is a very good-looking woman beside him, with fine black hair draped over his shoulders, slightly feminine, the two look very compatible, I think these two are roughly husband and wife, but what attracts me the most is the woman behind the man, dressed in black, as if dissolved in the night, there is a faint sadness in the center of her eyebrows, as if these people have nothing to do with her.

The clock rang three times, and I saw the man scattering the copper coins on the plate under the city tower, and the people rushed to pick them up.

Xi Ze asked me, "Why do adults laugh?"

I shook my head, not answering Xi Ze's question. I remember that I met Ah Chen in the Lantern Festival, in my previous life, I only cared about protecting my family and defending the country, but I didn't have time to experience this lively Lantern Festival.

After this royal ceremony, the streets were bustling again. Ben was a little tired, but Ah Yan proposed: "Since everyone is here, let's go and put the river lanterns, I heard that the most meaningful thing in the Lantern Festival is to put the river lanterns." ”

The others echoed one after another, and I was too embarrassed to refuse, so I went with them to the bank of the river, and many girls, and many men, put their lanterns into the river, folded their hands, closed their eyes, and hoped that their wishes would be fulfilled.

Each of the four of us took a piece of paper to write down our wishes, and I looked at the three people next to me, all of whom were writing their wishes seriously, I never believed in them, it was just to comfort myself. After a while, all four of us had written, and we put the written wishes into the river lantern, and we put the river lantern into the water and gently pushed it with our hands. I raised my eyes and saw that not far away, the man and his wife on the city tower were also putting river lanterns, and the two looked very affectionate, but the woman behind them was incompatible. Not only did I sigh: "Love in this world is always tormenting. ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Protoss is also interested in coming to the world. This voice is very familiar, I can't help but get nervous, I turned to look, in his arms is my sister, a pair of beautiful people, Chen Yuan seems to feel my loss, hugged me into his arms and said: "I heard that the Lantern Festival in the world is very lively, so I went down to experience it, I never thought that I met you in the Demon Hall here." ”

Looking at Ah Chen standing opposite, I couldn't find a trace of Ah Chen, Ah Chen didn't look at me from beginning to end, my heart was empty, I pulled the corner of Chenyuan's clothes, signaling that I didn't want to stay here for too long. Chen Yuan understood my thoughts.

"We've seen almost this Lantern Festival, and it's time for us to go back, so we won't disturb the Demon Palace."

Qian Yuchen nodded, when he and his sister passed by me, I felt that the whole world was still, only me and Ah Chen, I stretched out my hand, trying to hold Ah Chen, but after all, I didn't have the courage, I looked back at their departing figures, and relieved myself that maybe this is not bad, at least so, three of the four people are happy!

Then after we separated from Xi Ze Ayan, on the way back, the atmosphere was always very cold, Chen Yuan didn't say a word, I know what he cares about.

When I arrived at Nanxiao Gate, Chen Yuan stopped, hugged me into his arms, and said affectionately: "Liuli, I know you haven't forgotten him, I'm willing to wait, as long as you don't push me away, okay?"

My hands gently caressed Chen Yuan's back, and I thought it would end well.

"I'll try to forget him, try to accept you"

Chen Yuan said excitedly: "Is it true? ”

I nodded, but I couldn't look directly into Chen Yuan's eyes, which were full of joy at this time. I was afraid that my eyes had betrayed me, and I felt a deep sadness in my heart, and I did not know whether it was right or wrong.
