My Princess Has Been Reborn

Qi Yang said more than once that she wanted to see Lu Qipei's women's clothing, but this was the first time she gave such a clear response.Because in the past, no matter how calm Lu Qipei looked, a string in his heart was always tense.

But now that Xie Yuan was dead, the biggest threat that weighed on the two of them was gone, and Lu Qipei seemed to relax.

Because of this unexpected response, Qi Yang was a little surprised, and didn't even want to go to any lantern festival. In her words: "Shangyuan Lantern Festival is held every year. How can it be so important to watch Ah Pei change his clothes?"

Lu Qipei felt it was funny when he heard it, and stretched out his hand to scratch her cheek lightly: "Your Highness's words are wrong. The Shangyuan Lantern Festival only happens once a year. In the future, you want to see me wearing women's clothing, but you still have a lifetime. You can see it, so why worry about it?"

In fact, there was no need for the two to try hard to convince each other, just as they were flirting, the closed door was pushed open a crack, and a small black head poked in.Lu Sheng couldn't see anything unusual from left to right, so he happily opened the door and ran in, holding the rabbit lamp made by Lu Qipei in his hand: "Your Highness, Uncle, it's getting dark, let's go out."

God knows how long the little guy has been looking forward to the Lantern Festival, and today he has been waiting for it to get dark since he woke up.Now that the sky was finally starting to darken, she happily came looking for someone with a lamp, looking forward to the two with eager eyes.

Seeing this, Lu Qipei couldn't help laughing, and then blinked at Qi Yang, silently expressing: Look, Ah Sheng is here to find someone, if you dare to say no, the child will cry for you in a few minutes, believe it or not?

Qi Yang perfectly received Lu Qipei's eyes, and was inexplicably discouraged. In the end, he could only mention his peach blossom lantern and said helplessly: "Let's go, let's go out now." It's better to go back early.

Lu Sheng didn't realize what he had destroyed at all, and couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, he held the lamp in one hand, and grabbed Lu Qipei's robe leg with the other to leave.In the end, they were stopped, and they were able to go out after waiting for the two to change into the clothes they were going out with.

The Shangyuan Lantern Festival is usually crowded with people, so Qi Yang and Lu Qipei deliberately brought more attendants when they went out.

The family of three didn't take a car, and rarely went out on foot.And those who can live next to the princess mansion, apart from the royal family members, are high-ranking officials and dignitaries, so as soon as the three of them go out, they can see exquisite lanterns hanging outside the doors of every house.Some were carefully crafted by general supervisors, and some were specially purchased by dignitaries.On the contrary, the peach blossom lanterns outside the Princess Mansion, which remain unchanged every year, seem too ordinary.

Before Lu Sheng walked out of this street, he was fascinated by the lanterns of various houses. Qi Yang looked at the child with a surprised face and asked her deliberately: "A Sheng, are these lanterns beautiful?"

Xiaotuanzi nodded honestly: "It looks good, all of them look good."

Qi Yang's eyes turned, and he teased her deliberately: "Then Ah Sheng can exchange the rabbit lamp, okay?"

Unexpectedly, Lu Sheng immediately became vigilant after hearing this, and hurriedly shook her head while hugging her lantern: "If you don't change it, you won't change it, A Sheng will not change it!"

Qi Yang was amused by her nervously guarding food, and from time to time she made a few jokes, and children would take it seriously.Most of the childish words made people laugh, so the group continued to move forward while laughing and making noise.

In fact, although the lanterns hung by various houses on this street are very exquisite, the real excitement of the lantern festival is far from here.When the three of them left this street full of dignitaries and turned to the main road of Long Street, they saw that the outside world had taken on a completely new look.

In fact, it was still early when Lu Sheng made a fuss about going out, and the sky outside had only just darkened.But this is the case, the lights have been lit everywhere, except for those hanging under the eaves on both sides of the street, there are also horizontal lines on the top of the street, hanging the simplest style of lanterns - lotus lanterns, walnut lanterns, snowflake lanterns, one by one. The lamps are spread out, reflecting the bright lights of the whole street.

These days, the common people don't have much entertainment at night, and the sons and daughters of wealthy families can still go to Huajie and Liuxiang. Ordinary people even rest in the dark in order to save some lamp oil.In addition, there is a curfew in the city, so there are very few opportunities to have fun at night.

The Shangyuan Lantern Festival is a rare opportunity. From the [-]th day of the first lunar month, the curfew has been lifted in the city, and it has been a carnival for three consecutive days.But only on the day of Shangyuan, the government will pay to hang all the lanterns on the main street, making the whole street as bright as day.Later on, the emperor went up to watch the lanterns in person, praying for the people and having fun with the people, which pushed the atmosphere of the Shangyuan Lantern Festival to its peak.

This kind of excitement will last all night. When the night of Shangyuan passes and the lights are extinguished at dawn, these lanterns will also usher in their end.After burning the lanterns, the Shangyuan Lantern Festival is completely over.

But that was the end, but now it is still the beginning.

The street market in Shangyuan night is indeed very lively, and the later it is, the more people there are on the street.As the three of Lu Qipei walked to the depths of the market, all the attendants who followed the three of them also stepped forward, protecting them tightly and separating them from the surrounding crowd.

Qi Yang and Lu Qipei didn't feel disappointed either, they strolled along the street, surrounded by a steady stream of people, and occasionally there were children running past laughing at their feet.There are vendors on both sides of the street, mostly selling lanterns, and occasionally selling other things, such as sachets, masks, and other odds and ends.

The lanterns on the small vendors are nothing to look at, most of them are made by the stall owners themselves, some of them are still exquisite, and some of them are barely impressive.Not to mention that compared with the craftsmanship of those craftsmen who will be the supervisor, even the two lamps made by Lu Qipei are more than a notch better than them.

Qi Yang's gaze was attracted by the mask on the stall, she leaned closer, and the vendor knew that a nobleman was coming as soon as she saw her imposing attire, and was eager to greet her warmly.Qi Yang ignored him, and took a mask with a sweep of his eyes - the mask with the shape of a human face did not know which god it was, the dark face and the angry eyes looked quite scary.

I don't know why Qi Yang chose this one, he picked it up and examined it with satisfaction, then turned around and put it on Lu Qipei's face.

Ruyu's face was immediately replaced by a ferocious mask. Lu Sheng, who was nestled in Lu Qipei's arms, looked up, and was startled by the appearance of the mask, holding his mouth and almost crying, feeling aggrieved.

Lu Qipei hurriedly coaxed the child a few words, but he was afraid of scaring her further, so he reached out to take off the mask.

Unexpectedly, just as he raised his hand, Qi Yang held it down: "Wear it, don't take it off."

Lu Qipei stopped his movements obediently, but he didn't understand: "Why? This mask doesn't look good, it scared Ah Sheng."

Qi Yang's eyes flickered when he heard the words, but he said: "What's not good-looking? The masks I chose are all good-looking! Ah Sheng just hasn't seen them before, and he will get used to them after seeing them more." After she finished speaking, she asked Lu Sheng, "Ah Sheng, are you right?"

What can the good boy Lu Sheng do?Of course she could only nod, she couldn't be more complacent.

Lu Qipei was taken aback by her actions, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of Qi Yang's flickering eyes, as if he understood something.She pursed her lips to hold back her smile, and just used the mask to hide the smile in her eyes, and said, "Is that so? Then I will choose a piece with Ah Ning."

Qi Yang did not refuse, watching Lu Qipei choose a white mask with female gods painted on it, and put it on with her.The two looked at each other, both satisfied.At this moment, Lu Sheng tugged at Lu Qipei's sleeve, and asked in a low voice, "Ah Sheng wants too!"

The peddler winked, and said immediately after hearing the words: "My lord, madam, there are smaller masks for the little ones here."

The two heard the words and looked, and sure enough, they saw the peddler take out another stack of masks from under the stall.But this time they are not gods, but small animals, such as tigers, foxes, rabbits, etc. They only work as usual.

Lu Sheng was not picky, and he fell in love with the rabbit mask at a glance, eagerly looking forward to wanting it.

Qi Yang naturally bought it, and put the mask that was a bit too big for Lu Sheng on her, and muttered: "Ah Sheng really, after raising a rabbit, I wish I could become a rabbit too."

Lu Sheng didn't care about this complaint at all, holding the small mask on his face with both hands, he was very happy, and even handed over the rabbit lamp to Lu Qipei to carry it.

After the three of them put on their masks, they continued to wander the streets. This time it was alright. With the masks blocking everyone's sight, the eyes of their family were finally not so much—yes, the reason why Qi Yang was interested in the masks was that he deliberately I chose the ugliest one for Lu Qipei because she was so beautiful, and girls always looked at her before!

This is inevitable, the excitement of the Lantern Festival in Shangyuan is extraordinary, especially young men and women will not miss the excitement of the Lantern Festival.With more people, there will be more eyes of all kinds. Girls who dare not look directly at men on weekdays dare to look around boldly.

It's nothing to let people look at it, but Her Royal Highness is stingy, not far away from being looked at by others.

Lu Qipei saw it, so he put on the mask graciously.But at the same time, she was equally sensitive to other people's gazes on Qi Yang, so she took advantage of the situation and asked Qi Yang to wear a mask as well—only Lu Sheng didn't know anything, the kid just joined in the fun, and soon I was so bored by the mask, I reluctantly took it off.

Right now, the two of them are satisfied with each other, and tacitly hid their small thoughts, so they can continue shopping on this street.

A group of people walked along the main road of Suzaku Avenue, and gradually reached the center of the city, where several tall lighthouses could be seen standing in the distance.Starting from the most common Fangyuan lanterns at the bottom, to the lotus lanterns, goldfish lanterns, and hydrangea lanterns in the middle, to the glazed palace lanterns at the top, the exquisiteness is no less than that of the craftsmen of the general supervisor.

However, compared to the glazed palace lanterns at the top, the lighthouse with the height of three people is the most eye-catching at first glance.Lu Sheng was the first to be attracted, and couldn't help exclaiming when he looked at the tall lighthouse.

There are also many people under the lighthouse, and there are also singing, dancing and juggling troupes performing arts, making the surrounding noisy with gongs and drums.

Lu Qipei and Qi Yang didn't care about those lighthouses, but they obviously wanted to go there if they wanted to join in the fun.Fortunately, they had attendants to clear the way, and it was easy to walk all the way, until they got to the lighthouse and were stopped by a servant, who asked them with a smile if they wanted to guess lantern riddles?

Of course, these lighthouses have their owners. They are not funded by the imperial court, but they are the joint disturbance of several wealthy businessmen in the capital during the Lantern Festival.It's just that from the preparation of the palace lanterns on the top to the lantern riddles on each floor, there are comparisons between the several families.If someone can pass the test, guessing from the lantern riddles on the bottom floor to winning the palace lantern at the top, it will be an eye-catching event.

Of course, the owner of the lighthouse is not afraid of being guessed to win the palace lantern, because they prepare more than one palace lantern every time, and the popularity received during the process is the most important.

Of course, if all the palace lanterns were won before the Shangyuan Lantern Festival ended, there would be nothing to lose face.

Now Lu Qipei and the others were blocked by their servants to invite them, and no matter why the other party liked their invitation, she only looked at the tall lighthouse, then turned her head and asked Qi Yang, "Does Ah Ning want to play?"

Qi Yang held her arm with one hand, pointed at the palace lantern on the top of the lighthouse with the other and said arrogantly: "If you want to play, then I want the best!"

Lu Qipei smiled, and a doting voice came from behind the mask: "It's up to you."

The servant didn't feel offended, he smiled and led the group down to the lighthouse.
