His Majesty Meow Raises Fish [Rebirth]

The Empress Dowager Qianqiu held a three-day palace banquet in the palace, and the Tianjing City Lantern Festival will also be held for three days. Because there is no curfew, the city is very lively, and there are still crowds of people until night.

Qi Jing promised Shaoxuan that he would take him and Shiyi to see the lantern, and he was very anxious inside, but at the palace banquet, he was as honest as he could be.

After all, it was to celebrate the emperor's grandmother's birthday, and he had just received the reward, and many people were staring at him, hoping that he would make mistakes, so Qi Jing naturally became more cautious.

On the contrary, the Empress Dowager couldn't bear to see him sitting upright, so she joked with a smile: "It seems that our seventh son has grown up, and we will start a family and start a business this year."

For the prince, getting married and starting a career means more than just taking a regular wife and receiving an errand, it's as simple as that.

According to the current momentum of the Seventh Prince, if he continues to "brilliant" like this, even if he is not awakened, he will probably be reused by His Majesty.

Several adult princes followed His Majesty to entertain the ministers in the Zichen Palace, only Qi Zhuo and Qi Jing, who were not yet crowned, were left in Ci'an Palace by the Queen Mother.

Seeing that the Empress Dowager only mentioned the Seventh Prince, the empresses of the various palaces wondered what to do, but on the surface they all smiled dignifiedly.

The noble concubine has the highest status, and she is the only one who can speak first on this occasion, so she flattered the queen mother and said, "What the queen mother said is that the seventh child is about to surpass the sixth child in size."

Don't talk about skills, don't talk about style, just talk about size... Anyway, we can't let the Queen Mother talk about Lao Qi.

The sixth prince Qi Zhuo spent a lot of time by staying with the queen mother during the two months when the seventh prince Qi Jing left Beijing.

The Empress Dowager also loves this grandson very much, so when Concubine Yao mentioned Qi Zhuo, she couldn't help but say good things to him.

Concubine Yao's words diverted the topic from Lao Qi to Lao Liu. Yu Zhaoyi sat next to her, her gaze slightly lowered.

"Speaking of which, Ah Heng's marriage is about to be decided. For this birthday banquet, Aijia wants to see those little girls with his own eyes. He has to pick the most outstanding ones so that His Majesty can rest assured."

According to the ancestral system, a prince can have a main concubine and two side concubines. His Majesty's Empress Hu and Empress Wei were the concubines and side concubines at the time of his mansion. It can be seen how important the status of the main concubine is.

His Majesty is interested in Qi Heng's marriage, and the daughters of the three families have already been decided, but the choice of the concubine is still to be discussed, so His Majesty asked the Queen Mother to look at her as a reference.

Having said that, it doesn't matter to the sixth and seventh princes from now on. They ate their meals, greeted His Majesty, and went back to the manor without arranging any errands.

When Qi Jing left the palace, she couldn't help but look back at the high palace wall.

At this time, I am afraid that there are people who are working hard and competing for the position of the second prince's main concubine, but they don't know that once they enter the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea, and they are just passers-by from now on.

There are other people who will join in the excitement and insist on meddling, as if they can control other people's fate by controlling other people's marriage.

Although he didn't settle for a marriage until his death in his previous life, Qi Jing secretly swore that he would never compromise for the sake of his parents' orders and the matchmaker's words.

You have to be happy with each other before you can make up your mind to hold hands for a lifetime and share weal and woe!

……

Shaoxuan was quietly practicing calligraphy in the Prince's Mansion while waiting.

——It doesn't matter how late it is, because Qi Jing never broke his promise to him.

Sure enough, the Seventh Prince, who had attended the palace banquet in the palace, rushed back with the Eleventh Prince in his arms, walked into the room in a hurry, and said to him, "Let's go, Shaoxuan, let's go out and look at the lights."

Seeing that his brother was in a good mood, the eleventh prince, who was originally an honest and quiet person in the palace, immediately became cheerful and lively.

While clapping their little hands, the little guy happily yelled "Deng Deng Deng", as if what they were going to see was not the folk lantern festival, but the lanterns of the Heavenly Palace.

"Hush, whisper," Qi Jing smiled and touched his brother's little face: "We are traveling in micro-clothes."

Luo Duanxing had already taken Deng Song and the others to see the lights, because they were all children, and Qi Jing was afraid that many people would get lost, so he asked Chen Xin to arrange someone to escort them.

He himself was accompanied by four hidden guards in disguise and a team of personal guards, together with Shaoxuan, a young man with a fledgling martial arts, he also went out with Little Eleven in his arms.

Although the palace lanterns are gorgeous, in terms of atmosphere, the folk lantern festivals are more lively.

Not to mention Shaoxuan and Xiaoshi who had never seen this scene, even Qi Jing who lived in Tianjing for two lifetimes was also very surprised.

In his previous life, if there was such a large-scale festival, he would try his best to stay by Yu Zhaoyi's side.

It's just that no matter how attentive the Seventh Prince was, his biological mother's reaction was flat.

Later, he started to do all kinds of things that Yu Zhaoyi explained, so the good time was immersed in conspiracy and calculation, and the conspiracy and calculation that was about to be completed.

In the end, Qi Jing couldn't remember at all what he did during the lantern festivals in those years.

Shaoxuan saw that he was fascinated by a colorful lantern, and thought he liked that lantern, so he walked over.

He already knew how to play the lantern festival, and knew that if he wanted this lantern, he had to spend money or guess riddles.

He came to Tianjing with Qi Jing, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was penniless. Although he was carrying the money bag given to him by the Seventh Prince, Shaoxuan didn't want to spend money recklessly, so he planned to look at the lantern riddle.

As soon as the owner of the shop saw a well-dressed young man, he was overjoyed immediately, and then looked at Shaoxuan's face carefully, he just stood there for a long time without responding, and even forgot to ask him for five cents to read the riddle.

——This... is this an immortal in the sky who secretly came down to play after seeing the bustle of the imperial city!

Shaoxuan took the note under the lamp, read it for a long time and finally recognized all the characters in the riddle, logically speaking, it is still difficult to guess the answer.

But when he looked at the riddle, he didn't know what he thought of, but he was in a daze.

Qi Jing was still thinking about things at first, but when she saw her beauty running away, she was reminded by the slap on the face of Xiao Shiyi in her arms, so she quickly chased after her.

"Do you like this lamp? Let me see what the mystery is?"

He was holding Xiao Shiyi, unable to move his hands, so he looked at the enigma with Shaoxuan's hand, the two were so close that they could almost hear each other's breathing.

"The ancient moon shines on the water, and the water accompanies the ancient moon to celebrate the spring and autumn.

Qi Jing read out the riddle, and suddenly remembered, wasn't this the invitation he made when he showed Shaoxuan the picture of changing the lake road?

"After these are built, we can set up a flat boat on the lake, watch the lotus during the day, and enjoy the moon at night..."

Thinking of this, Qi Jing couldn't help smiling. He knew that although the lantern riddles were difficult for Shaoxuan now, Shaoxuan would definitely be able to guess this lantern riddle.

Sure enough, his exile under the moon said: "The lake, the answer to the mystery is the lake of the lake."

He took off the note under the lamp and handed it to the shopkeeper.

The shop owner looked at Shaoxuan, and then at Qi Jing who was holding the child, and couldn't help being even more puzzled.

Just now seeing this young man bring the baby over, he also guessed that maybe a family of three came out to visit the Lantern Festival, and the beautiful little lady disguised herself as a man...

But the father looks too young, and the husband... is shorter than the wife, it seems that I guessed wrong!

"Well, the young master hasn't given money for guessing riddles yet. According to the rules, even if you guess correctly, you can't count."

Just now he was confused, but when he came to his senses, doing business is doing business, and he should be shrewd when he should be shrewd.

Seeing that the lantern was destined to be with them, and that it was Shaoxuan who guessed the lantern riddle for the first time, Qi Jing was reluctant to part with the lantern.

So he said to the shop owner: "We just came to Tianjing, and it's our first time to participate in the Lantern Festival. The shopkeeper is accommodating and let us buy this lamp. After all, we have guessed the mystery."

Of course, the prize for Wu Wenqian's guessing the lantern riddle is not this big lamp, but another kind of small lamp, or other small things.

The shop owner still wanted to keep this big lamp to attract customers, and he was somewhat displeased.

But who is Qi Jing, even the Empress Dowager, His Majesty, and Prince Feng who is far away in Laiyiwei can tell him to go in, let alone a store that is about to do business.

In addition, there was Xiao Shiyi, a little guy who acted like a baby, and the sisters-in-law and sisters who were attracted by Qi Jing and Shaoxuan were now so fascinated by him, they all came to support and asked the shopkeeper to accommodate.

One shopkeeper was no match for ten people, and this weird family of three also attracted him a lot of business, so he was defeated.

They quickly negotiated the price, and Qi Jing asked Shaoxuan to hold the lamp by himself, and left the shop happily.

Seeing that Shaoxuan was still staring at the lamp with a very focused look, Qi Jing couldn't help smiling, and he couldn't help but made another promise.

"From now on, we will go out to visit the Lantern Festival every year, and even if we go elsewhere, we will guess riddles together."

The current Qi Jing doesn't know that many years later, they have really traveled to many places, even to the distant capital of Jizhou, where they participated in the Lantern Festival.

At this moment, they were standing in the street full of traffic and horses and carriages, surrounded by bustling crowds, Qi Jing looked into Shaoxuan's starry eyes, and saw the other party nodded slightly.

At this moment, Shaoxuan stretched out his hand and handed something to Qi Jing.

Qi Jing looked down, and found that he was holding a black scale in his hand, which was illuminated by the lights on the street, giving off a charming luster.

The author has something to say:

-small theater-

Qi Xiaomiao: Ah, what should I do if I receive a token of love?These are Shaoxuan's scales, where are the scales from?

Author: Hey hey, guess~
