This is Xia Yi's second Mid-Autumn Festival in the palace.
It was clearly just a family banquet, but it also became a competition field for the princes to fight openly and secretly.The second prince brought him into the palace for a banquet, to put it bluntly, it was just to increase his own prestige in front of everyone and to make a good impression.
Drinking and singing, all the fragrance of the moon cakes is plundered, leaving only the tiresome flattery, the inside and outside of the palace are full of joy and excitement, noble families decorate terraces, folks compete to occupy restaurants to enjoy the moon, and the city is full of lights like a world of glazed glass , but Xia Yi couldn't arouse the slightest interest.
But after a while, he found a reason to leave the table and walked to the imperial garden.
The pavilion with bright moon is unique, at least he can escape the noise by himself.
The emperor seemed to have seen his reluctance, so he didn't say anything, and he wasn't as unkind as others said.
It's just that at the banquet...he brushed His Royal Highness's face again, he must be very angry.
"Qiang qiang one by one" the crisp sound of the jade pendant flowed across the lake with the autumn wind, and looking up, the most honorable crown prince in Danan was standing at the head of the bridge, quietly watching the young man in the gazebo.
That little prince also slipped out of the banquet at some point, didn't he like the atmosphere there?Xia Yi pretended not to see him, thinking to himself.
"How do you think Nan Wanqiao met this person? I always feel that he...seems familiar." On the bridge, Nan Wenqing frowned and asked Shen Qian who was behind him.
He knew that this young man wrote well on policy and had unique views on political affairs, but he didn't know that his poems and lyrics were so sophisticated, and today he was shining brilliantly at the palace banquet.
"I don't know. I heard that this person is withdrawn and proud of his talents. Even the second prince can't get any good looks." Shen Qian replied.
"Oh? Speaking of which, the last time I had a conversation with him was late spring last year, and I didn't say a few words. I want to meet this genius today." Nan Wenqing smiled, and told Shen Qian to stare here He strode away by himself.
Xia Yi noticed that the man was walking towards him, looked up, and happened to meet the clear eyes of His Highness the Crown Prince.
"Meet Your Highness the Prince." Xia Yi got up and saluted neatly.
Nan Wenqing felt that this person was not as eccentric as others said, but he always showed a sense of alienation in his dealings with others.
"Sir, I haven't had a heart-to-heart talk with you for a long time, do you still remember me?" Nan Wenqing smiled.
"Your Highness is so high, how can I not know His Highness the Crown Prince?" Xia Yi said after a pause.
Nan Wenqing laughed lightly, lifted his robe and took his seat: "Sir, don't be cautious, it's just you and me today, so we can save those red tapes."
Xia Yi responded, but didn't say anything more, and sat on the stone bench beside him.
"At this time, everyone should be guessing lantern riddles. Mister came out so early, I'm afraid I'll miss a lot of fun." Nan Wenqing raised his hand to support his forehead, and leaned lazily on the stone table.From this angle, although the young man in front of him is aloof... under the gentle moonlight, there is a little more tenderness between his brows and eyes.
His eyes are so beautiful, Nan Wenqing thought, folded the fan in his hand, and said: "Since it is a lantern riddle, I will test you. Sincerely accompany, type a word."
Xia Yi stroked the wine glass, and declined: "Forgive me for being dull, I don't know."

Nan Wenqing laughed and shook her head: "Is there anyone in this world who doesn't know Mr.? Since Mr. doesn't want to say it, I won't say it."
Xia Yi smiled and nodded.
The answer to the riddle of true companionship is the word "cautious". He is reminding himself that he cannot control his own will in everything he does in the palace, so he needs to act cautiously.Pushing away from the attendance in this way is a blow to the emperor's face.
"Didn't His Highness come out too? I'm afraid I'll miss a lot of interesting things." Xia Yi said lightly.
Nan Wenqing chuckled: "I have spent more than a dozen Mid-Autumn Festivals in the palace, and it's not unusual for me to be like this every year."
"Yes, it's not as good as folks." Xia Yi replied.
"What is the folk Mid-Autumn Festival like?" Nan Wenqing was a little curious.
"Happy family, watching the moon and drinking wine, burning lanterns and towers, watching flowers and guessing riddles..." Xia Yi said, with a hint of nostalgia.
"Happy family...that's right, the Mid-Autumn Festival in the palace, where is the joy of the whole family?" Nan Wenqing smiled wryly, and looked up at Xia Yi.
"Where is your home?" Nan Wenqing asked suddenly.
Xia Yi was startled for a while before saying: "I don't have a home."
"What about your relatives?"
"I don't know."
The huge imperial garden was suddenly so quiet that only the cicadas hissed.
Xia Yi looked at the bright moon in the night, this is the No.20 three Mid-Autumn Festivals he spent alone.
He sometimes imagines his biological parents, whom he has never met, what do they look like?Are you still alive?If you are still alive, are you looking at the moon with other children in your arms?Will they think of themselves through the round moon... He didn't say anything, just stared blankly at the quiet moon, calm and cold.
"Sorry, I was the one to be abrupt." Nan Wenqing coughed twice, embarrassed.
"No, His Royal Highness is not wrong." Xia Yi said quickly.
Nan Wenqing was a little surprised, she didn't expect this person to explain in such a panic.
He is the prince, even if he said something wrong, others can't refute it, it's just some polite words.
This person... isn't that lonely and cold, he's quite cute.
In fact, he felt that the two of them got along quite well. If Xia Yi wasn't the second brother's assistant, he would definitely be his close friend.
"Sir, you don't look like someone who is obsessed with official career and confined to the world of mortals. Why do you become an official?" Nan Wenqing asked.
"To find someone." Xia Yi said lightly, without looking at him.
"Have you found Mr.?" Nan Wenqing asked again.
"Found it." Xia Yi was stunned for a moment, then said firmly.
I don't know if the moonlight is too gentle, Nan Wenqing seems to see him smile.
"Since that's the case, why didn't you take him away to live the life you want?" Nan Wenqing asked.
Xia Yi sighed imperceptibly, and took a while to say: "I don't have anything I want in life, but I probably know what he wants. I can't take him away, so I want to stay with him all the time, that's enough gone."
"So... that person didn't object?" Nan Wenqing frowned.What kind of person should be able to make such a person who is so calm and bright be trapped in fame, fortune, officialdom, and become a world of mortals?
"He doesn't know... Maybe he doesn't even know that I'm here for him." Xia Yiyan stood up and raised the white jade jug to the bright moon in the sky.
"I offer a jug of wine to the old man, and send him peace all over the world."
After saying that, he raised his head and held the jug and poured it into his mouth. The wine slid down the corner of his mouth to the neckline, shining crystal light under the moonlight.
It's just that the two of them at that time didn't know yet—"If you are sincerely accompanied, it is you."
