The abandoned queen is reborn: she makes the prince cry and seizes the throne!

He was about to take it back, but the candy that was so close to him was suddenly withdrawn by Ji Mengshu, "Brother, there is no reason to take back something you have given away."

The two masters walked in front, and Ji Shiyi behind them brought Hongye and Qingzhu. He used the purse given by his masters to buy three strings of candies, one string for each person.

They happily followed their master as he strolled around, and sometimes they would see which shop in the market made the best lanterns and discuss them with him.

The lamp holes in Zhenzhou didn't look as complicated and exquisite as those in Kyoto, but the style was very unique. The young child pointed at a lion and roared at it, but he actually laughed himself.

Ji Yuanzheng walked two steps ahead and stopped in front of a small lantern. "Ah Shu, take a look. What kind do you like?"

Although the end of the year is approaching, people's hearts are all warm and cozy. In a trance, Ji Mengshu felt as if she had returned to her childhood, when she was still in Kyoto, still under the protection of her parents.

My brother is not far away from the border so early. As long as the capital is bustling with people in the streets and alleys, he will bring some excitement to her and add a bit of festivity to the slightly quiet prime minister's mansion.

He stood in front of the shop and looked for a long time. Finally, his eyes fell on a rabbit lamp that looked a bit crudely made. He picked it up slowly, turned around and smiled at the man, "Brother, I want this!"

Ji Yuanzheng waved his hand backwards, Ji Shiyi took the purse to pay the bill, and hurriedly followed his two masters.

It's full of joy here, and it's snowy here.

Wei Zheng coughed twice, glanced at Ning Rongzhang, and said calmly, "Don't I mean to say that you, a grown man, want to go shopping, do you still need me to accompany you?"

The last line of the voice was questioning, but Ning Rongzhang seemed not to hear it and walked forward on his own. His unwillingness to wait was really unusual... Wei Zheng silently complained in his heart, "You owe."

He couldn't ask a beautiful woman out, but she dragged a grown man like him out shopping. Wei Zheng suddenly felt goose bumps all over his body, as if everyone who passed by them was looking at him with strange eyes.

"Eh..." Wei Zheng stamped his feet, shaking off the goose bumps all over his body. Liao Hui, who was following him, thought he was feeling unwell, and was interrupted by Wei Zheng just as she was about to speak, "I'm fine, no need to ask."

Liao Hui choked, then retreated respectfully.

Xiao Qi was rarely without a sword, and followed Ning Rongzhang in the guise of an ordinary servant. He had a fair complexion and a weak face like a scholar. From this point of view, he had nothing to do with the murderous secret guard killer.

I couldn't find any sense of disobedience.

"Master, look, isn't that Miss Ji?" Xiao Qi looked at Ji Mengshu who was watching the fire-breathing acrobatics in the front, and praised himself in his heart. Just his eyesight was one of the best among the secret guards around the prince.

As expected, the prince, who had been cold as ice since he came out, finally softened his expression a little, and walked towards the people quickly with an unexpected smile on his face.

Ji Mengshu felt someone pat her on the back, turned around, and didn't see anyone familiar. Just when she thought someone had recognized the wrong person, a tall man stood beside her.

"Your Majesty? Why did you come out?"

Ning Rongzhang was quite arrogant. "The New Year is coming, and every household is so busy. Why should I stay in an empty house, waiting for someone who will never come back..." He seemed to be getting more and more aggrieved. His eyes were accusing her, as if she was the ultimate culprit that caused him to be unhappy.

Just as he was about to speak, Ji Yuan Zhengshen came over unnoticed and pulled the person back to his side, but his eyes were looking at Ning Rongzhang, "Whether the person the prince is waiting for comes back or not, it seems to have nothing to do with my Ah Shu..."

My Ashu...

Ning Rongzhang pulled the corner of his lips and looked back. When their eyes met in mid-air, there was a spark without the smell of gunpowder.

Ji Mengshu was stunned, who knew what conflict these two people had. The crowd around them burst into cheers. Ji Mengshu turned his head away, ignoring them, and watched the jugglers.

Two men stood behind her, staring at each other without blinking. The air within ten steps was as cold as ice. Xiao Qi felt the cold wind blowing on the back of her neck. She shuddered and said with a smile, "General Ji, the prince has ordered dinner at Fu Ke Zhai. It's getting dark. What do you think... why don't we go together..."

"Together with what? Your Majesty is a noble man, we won't join him in the fun." Ji Yuanzheng said he didn't want to go. Although they were compatriots and allies on the battlefield before, it didn't mean that he would obey in everything.

Ji Mengshu was watching with great interest, when Ji Yuanzheng suddenly grabbed her wrist, "Ah Shu, let's go first."

His voice was gentle and soft, but Ji Mengshu knew that the more such a tone was used, the more it meant that he was keeping his distance from someone.

Ji Mengshu looked at Ning Rongzhang in confusion and wondered how this guy had offended her brother.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

Ji Yuanzheng turned around to look at her and said solemnly, "Ah Shu, Prince Changyou is very ambitious and has the ability to seize the throne. I am worried that if you get so close to him, it will be bad for your reputation..."

This is really far-fetched. Reputation is something that Ji Mengshu has long lost. In troubled times, as long as her family can live a safe and happy life, it is more important than anything else.

"Brother, do we still need this roundabout way between you and me?"

Ji Yuanzheng took a deep breath, turned around and saw Ning Rongzhang still standing there watching the juggling skills boredly. He whispered, "Prince Changyou is a man with deep scheming. I'm afraid he will use you. What's more, he has a complicated background. After he seizes the throne, I'm afraid you won't be able to get away..."

The mind of a country's emperor is the most difficult to guess.

What Ji Yuanzheng said is indeed reasonable.

"Don't worry, brother. I know what to do." The girl answered just fine, but Ji Yuanzheng was still worried. He had to keep an eye on someone all the time, and it would be best if that person never got close to Ah Shu again.

The streets of Zhenzhou were indeed bustling. Ji Mengshu walked in front, her nose full of fragrance. Coming from the main street, she had arrived at this food street without realizing it.

He excitedly pulled Ji Yuanzheng to sit down and shouted cheerfully, "Shopkeeper! Five bowls of 镈餅!"

"Okay, please wait a moment, girl." The shopkeeper put the sweat towel on his shoulders and said a few words to the woman who was cooking steamed dumplings.
