On the way back to Song Jun Yuan, Shen Linfeng's mind was full of Xiao Yu's figure. Her pure eyes, long hair fluttering in the wind and snow. Her smile was all reflected in Shen Linfeng's mind.

"Boom!"

The door of Song Junyuan was pushed open fiercely, and the shopkeeper in front of the door almost collapsed to the ground in fright by this loud noise.

"Ouch, guest officer, why are you back again?" a guy who had served wine and food for Shen Linfeng hurriedly greeted him.

Shen Linfeng didn't say anything, he directly grabbed the collar of the shopkeeper, forced him into a corner, and asked coldly, "Chu Xuan, which room is he in?"

The shopkeeper hesitated slightly, and then suddenly realized: "Oh...... You mean Young Master Chu. It's a misfortune that he just checked out and left. ”

Shen Linfeng was even more angry, and asked loudly: "Who is he with?"

"Yes, there is indeed a woman!"

"What does that woman look like?"

"The woman next to Chu Gongzi, where does the little one dare to take a closer look. However, there is one thing that I admire. It's cold outside, and the girl is only wearing shorts and shorts, which attracts a lot of people's attention. ”

At this moment, Shen Linfeng was already very sure that the woman who was with Chu Xuan must be Xiaoyu.

"Where did they go?"

"This, this little one really doesn't know. ”

Shen Linfeng slowly loosened the collar of the shopkeeper, he didn't expect to know their whereabouts from the shopkeeper's mouth.

Shen Linfeng sighed and turned away.

"Hey, please stay ...... guest officer"

"What else?"

"I heard that the father of the prince of Chu is a figure with a head and a face, maybe ......"

"Oh, so do you know where he lives?"

"Today is the Lantern Festival, presumably he will be in the Colorful Building, waiting for the auspicious lanterns to be fired!"

"Colorful Building?" Shen Linfeng muttered to himself.

Colorful Building, built on the bank of the Qingshui River. Rather than being a building, it would be better to call it a pagoda.

The tower is more than a dozen floors high, and each floor is covered with colorful lanterns. The reflection of the lights on the riverside, coupled with the light moonlight and the sparkling water surface, is truly a beautiful picture.

Leading to the colorful building is a wide street, with tall trees on both sides, and although there are no green leaves, there are countless small palm-sized lights.

Under the trees are vendors selling nothing more than simple papier-mâché lanterns.

Shen Linfeng also bought one from an old man's stall, the lantern was dimly lit, and the picture showed mandarin ducks playing in the water. Although the structure is simple, it also has a unique charm.

Moving on, in front of the colorful building is a spacious square. At this time, the square was already overcrowded, and everyone looked up, waiting for the auspicious lanterns to be fired.

Shen Linfeng asked an older man next to him, and learned from his mouth that there will be some local rich gentry in the Lantern Festival every year, and they will jointly fund an extremely luxurious lantern called Ji Lantern by the masters!

And there are more than one or two rich people in Nanyang, and over time, the gentry from all over the country have gangs and factions. The colored lanterns produced are also more luxurious than the other. And the annual auspicious lantern has also become a time for them to fight.

Therefore, every time the auspicious lantern is about to be lit, the people from all over the city will gather here. Look at the luxury lanterns made by these wealthy families and wealthy families.

Shen Linfeng seemed to have incarnated into one of the countless lantern watchers at this time, he blended in with the crowd of all kinds, looking up at the colorful high-rise buildings in front of him.

A moment later, the platform on the third floor of the high-rise building suddenly became brightly lit. Immediately afterwards, an old man who was close to the sixtieth birthday walked to the front of the platform with his back hunched.

However, it was not the old man who attracted Shen Linfeng's attention, but the few people standing behind him.

Chu Nantian, as well as a man with a majestic face and an obese physique, and Lin Zhuang behind the man.

"Everyone, be quiet!" the hunchbacked old man shouted, waving his hand.

There were four or five hundred people in the square in front of the colorful building, and as soon as the old man's voice fell, the field suddenly fell into silence.

"Today is our annual lantern festival in Liyang City. But this year, unlike in the past, we invited the three high-ranking and powerful princes in the capital to preside over the lighting ceremony for us. ”

As soon as these words came out, the people in the square were in an uproar.

The old man pretended to wave his hand and continued: "Lord Wang, he usually works on state affairs, and it can be said that he has a lot of opportunities......

Shen Linfeng shook his head secretly, and the old man patted his ass while talking about the history of the Lantern Festival.

The people below were chatting and dozing, dozing off, completely ignoring the existence of the old man.

The hour was approaching, and the old man finally ended his "speech". So, with a wave of his big hand, he shouted to the sky: "The auspicious time has come, light the lamp!"

Immediately afterwards, on the top floor of the colorful building, five or six huge lanterns suddenly rose. The lights were lit up and instantly illuminated the entire square. The lanterns are colorful and huge.

As it rises, bunches of fireworks rise from the lights. In the end, it exploded, colorful, and very beautiful!

The lanterns and fireworks illuminate almost the entire square as bright as day. Shen Linfeng looked up, and when his gaze returned to the platform on the third floor, his eyes couldn't help but widen.

The hunchbacked old man had returned to the building at some point, and Chu Nantian and the prince were nowhere to be found. At this time, there was only one young girl standing on the platform. She held on to the fence of the platform, her eyes staring motionlessly at the colorful lights and fireworks.

Her face flickered and darkened, and the fireworks were gorgeous, but there was no sparkle in the girl's eyes.

"Xiao Yu ......," Shen Linfeng called softly.

Before the words fell, I saw a handsome man on the platform slowly walking behind the girl. He held a thick cloak in his hand, and then gently placed it on the girl's shoulder.

"Xiaoyu!" Shen Linfeng raised his voice, and he began to push away everyone, preparing to rush to the Colorful Building.

At this time, the lanterns rising from the roof of the building are slowly moving towards the sky above the square. Sometimes they fall, sometimes they rise, and their colorful brilliance has won the applause of everyone.

The huge colored lanterns hindered Shen Linfeng's vision, and the commotion of the crowd almost made it difficult for him to move an inch.

"Xiaoyu!" Shen Linfeng kept shouting, as if he had exhausted his voice.

"Whoosh!" a white light rose from the square.

"Poof!" the white light sank into one of the lanterns, tearing it apart in an instant. The lantern loses its center of gravity and begins to sway from side to side. Immediately afterwards, the candle flame inside the lamp ignited the shell of the lantern. Suddenly, a large fireball hung in the air and burned brightly.
