Elegant Feather

On the carnival night when Shangyuan and Shengshou come together, the palace gates and towers all over the imperial city, the bronze helmets and iron halberds carry the glory and pride of guarding the heavenly family, and they are still tall and straight, especially the Suzaku gate at the main entrance of the imperial city.

The sound of unsteady footsteps scattered on the bluestone ground, getting closer to the Suzaku Gate, there were two figures supporting him.Even though he recognized the apricot-yellow king's clothes of the person being supported, the clear and clear sound of overlapping spears and halberds sounded dutifully.The palace gate guards who greeted him respectfully had no time to inquire, and already had two extra tokens in their hands.

"Our family is ordered to send the prince back to the mansion."

The concise and sharp voice did not make the palace gate guards feel very unhappy. With a quick glance, he has already identified the dragon-patterned varnish in his hand, which is the waist card of the imperial servant walking through the palace gate. The person in front of His Majesty, look at him It's very rare for this poor little body to be able to speak kindly under the weight of the prince.Looking at the other piece in his hand, it is not a token, but it is a dragon pendant, especially the word "Yi Yu" on it, which made the captain's eyes suddenly arouse respect, waved his hands to make way, bowed his head and returned with both hands: "Rong Le My lord, let's go."

When the little eunuch took back the token, the hand that flashed by made the palace guard a little stunned, thinking: "The hands are thin and tender, the hands of everyone's daughters are nothing more than this, they are worthy of being used by the imperial court." Standing up and watching The king of Rongle County left and saw the grand lights outside Suzaku's gate. The guards of the palace gate thought about it, and couldn't help but said: "Excuse me for my lowly post, tonight the road is full of people who appreciate lanterns in Shangyuan. If your father-in-law wants to Sending the prince back to the mansion is cheaper than going to the Xuanwu Gate." As a guard of the imperial city, he said what he should say and did what he should do. Kingo.If the prince hadn't appeared in time a few years ago, my Jinwu Guard and even Dahua's face would have been lost to Seibu.

"I want to watch the lights...Look at the lights..."

The murmur mixed with a strong drunkenness was the answer from the team leader's kind reminder. He was slightly surprised and then smiled secretly. The prince is too drunk. It may take a lot of trouble for the poor little eunuch to send the prince back to the mansion.

If they had clairvoyant eyes, the palace gate guards could just see that the "poor little eunuch" in his heart had never spoken from the beginning to the end, but the scorching breath accompanied by the words hitting his ears made "his" cold and beautiful face shine A charming blush secretly emerged from the shadows where the lights could not shine.

"Who went out just now?"

"I've seen the Commander Jun." Hearing the question suddenly, the palace gate guard recognized the Commander of the Habayashi Army. Even though they belonged to different subordinates, they still bowed to Jun Kangshu, knowing that he was Jun Yiyu's real uncle, and he didn't know him at the moment. Concealed, "It's the prince of Rong Le who drank too much. Commander-in-law don't worry, there is a father-in-law to send him back to the mansion."

"Oh? Send him off..." Jun Kangshu's eyes were full of confusion. Is Ah Yu so drunk that he needs someone to help him?And the man seemed to be on the verge of speaking, and Jun Kangshu turned the question into a murmur that seemed to be talking to himself, "Why did you come here when you returned home?"

The commander of the gate guard heard him puzzled, and said a little funnyly: "The prince is drunk, and he said he wants to watch the lamp. I'm afraid the little father-in-law who gave it away can't bear it, so he can only let him go through the Suzaku gate. Don't worry, commander. You can always arrive at the mansion safely."

"Well", Jun Kangshu waved his hand and led his men to continue patrolling in response, but turned around and walked not far away, he stopped again, only said that he was worried about his drunk nephew, and handed over the patrol work to the adjutant Taking charge, he hurriedly followed out of the Suzaku Gate.

Unaware of the episode behind them, Jun Yiyu and Jun Tianxi slipped out of the Suzaku Gate, guessing that the guards were in sight, and then cautiously took Jun Tianxi into the grove where they avoided people, and took off their royal clothes and eunuchs. Clothes, showing the usual clothes that have been changed in the palace, and blending into the grand lantern viewing crowd.

The flower market was like daytime, full of people's voices, even the Suzaku Avenue, which was more than [-] meters wide in front of the main gate of the imperial city, felt a little congested.

Jun Yiyu was a little worried. The crowd rubbing shoulders was for Shangyuan to appreciate the lanterns, but there were also people who "appreciated flowers" among them.With Jun Tianxi's appearance, it's okay to sit high in the Dragon Court on weekdays, but now that the micro-clothes are integrated into the carnival flow of people, I'm afraid they must attract young people who come here for "flower appreciation".

Jun Yiyu soon realized that his worries were superfluous. It wasn't that Jun Tianxi was not attractive enough. On the contrary, the eyes of Lie Yan who rushed to cast them first were quite sufficient, and even a few Jun Yiyu who looked at Jun Tianxi's side Every now and then, there was a gritted jealousy.Jun Tianxi turned a blind eye and walked on the crowded street as if there was no one else around, but it was like strolling in a garden. Under this kind of gaze, Xiaojiabiyu and even many ladies of the family could not keep the grace and demeanor, which made people look awed.Occasionally, under the push and pull of his companions, a bold wandering boy wanted to lean towards Jun Tianxi under the pretense of being too crowded. After she glanced at him lightly, he flinched and hid back.

Jun Yiyu, who was ready to protect the flowers at any time, but had no chance to make a phone call, looked a little dumbfounded.Well, Your Majesty is worthy of being His Majesty. With this momentum, the road is much easier to walk, but you always insist on going out of the palace to watch the folk Shangyuan Night, do you really just "see"?

When passing by a lamp seller, Jun Yiyu had an idea and stopped him to buy three lanterns in the shape of animals, and stuffed one in Jun Tianxi's hand without any explanation.

Seeing the sudden extra rabbit lantern in his hand, Jun Tianxi was a little puzzled, and when he saw Jun Yiyu carrying two lanterns with a "cow" in one hand and a "sheep" in the other, he frowned unobtrusively. Date someone?

Before Jun Tianxi could ask, Jun Yiyu smiled slyly and beckoned Jun Tianxi to continue walking.Jun Tianxi stepped forward and was about to open his mouth when the "horn" in Jun Yiyu's hand bumped into it. The rabbit lamp swayed twice, and before it was even hot, it-- went out!

"you···"

Seeing Jun Tianxi's stupefied look, Jun Yiyu couldn't help laughing, pointed to the surroundings and said, "Doudeng, Fighting Deng, didn't you see that they were all having a good time, wouldn't you be Let’s go out for a walk.” Then he stuffed the bull lantern in his hand to Jun Tianxi, “Come on, don’t turn it off this time.”

Knowing that when Jun Yiyu bought three lamps, he did not invite other people, and was infected by his unrestrained laughter, a smile leaked from Jun Tianxi's eyes, but he shook his head and said: "If you don't fight, you know martial arts, I... ·”

"Hush", Jun Yiyu put his index finger in front of his lips, the emperor who cut off Jun Tianxi's conditioned reflex, said to himself, curled his lips and said, "What's the truth, it's really boring, don't fight if you don't fight, we..."

"puff"

Jun Yiyu didn't finish his sentence, when he saw the sheep lantern in his hand that suddenly went dark, his face also darkened for a moment, then he turned his head and saw the dazzling bull lantern in Jun Tianxi's hand, he gritted his teeth and said, "When you are not prepared, you It's too cunning!"

"Each each other."

Jun Tianxi's proud brows raised Jun Yiyu's feigned dissatisfaction, making him laugh again.

Jun Yiyu laughed enough, straightened up, and found Jun Tianxi staring at him thoughtfully.Shaking her head helplessly, she always felt that she was very preoccupied tonight.Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the bright light in the sky, and there seemed to be cheerful singing and music, Jun Yiyu couldn't help but exclaimed, "What is that?!"

Jun Yiyu was only surprised by himself, only Jun Tianxi was with him, and he didn't expect Jun Tianxi, who lives in the palace every day, to know about folk festivals. He didn't expect Jun Tianxi to explain to him after thinking for a while: "It should be It is Changxing District, where Changning Canal and Yongxing Canal connect to Yu'an. There are court ladies selected by the Jiaofang to drive the common people to sing."

Light wheel, Jun Yiyu has vaguely seen the tall lanterns that are as bright as flowers and trees.Especially the words "Tage" made Jun Yiyu's eyes shine, "Let's go and see."

Jun Tianxi nodded without any objection, and Jun Yiyu's excited expression unknowingly drew a smile at the corner of her mouth, which she didn't even notice.

As we get closer, the singing and laughter become clearer. A glance at the graceful women on both sides of the strait who put up lanterns dyes the clear canal into a flowing light canal with colorful lanterns of different shapes.Looking at the wide platform beside the two canals, there are far more than one "flower wheel". The tall lamp stands rising from the ground are decorated with gold and jade colored silk. Under the reflection of thousands of colored lights on it, they are really gorgeous like flower trees. , especially the one in the middle, roughly estimated to be no less than twenty feet tall.

Just under the tallest flower tree, hundreds of young court ladies and beautifully dressed folk girls joined hands, forming a happy circle around the "flower tree", stepping on bright dance steps, and the clear and crisp singing songs circled along with it. .Because it is a group dance, the dance steps are not complicated, and there are even a few handsome young men among the dancers.Regardless of whether they are inside or outside the palace, regardless of gender differences, people who are acquainted with each other are connected heart to hand, and have a carnival of prosperity!

Thousands of doors are unlocked and thousands of lights are lit, and the imperial capital will be activated in the middle of the first month.The three hundred wives danced with their sleeves together, and the sound of lyrics was heard in the sky for a while.

Jun Yiyu's eyes filled with amazement as he perfectly matched the verses in his memory with the happy scene in front of him.

It was not the first time that Jun Tianxi saw the scene in front of her when she visited a folk festival in Weifu. It was hard to be moved, but Jun Yiyu's performance made her feel funny, and finally couldn't help asking: "You were also born in Yu'an , Didn’t you come out on Yuanye before?”

Jun Tianxi's question caused Jun Yiyu to scratch his head in embarrassment, "I was too young before, no one brought me here, but later... do you remember that when I was three years old, I went to the palace to attend the Shangyuan Banquet and slipped into the Imperial Garden by myself I bumped into you? Ah, you don’t remember. Anyway, it was easy to find that time. Dad was frightened by me. He was afraid that I would get lost. No one would take me to a lively place. Then I went to the teacher’s office However, I slipped away to hangzhou Shangyuan Festival once with my senior sister, which is not as lively as Yu'an, and I haven't seen this before."

Jun Yiyu raised his finger and pointed to the singing circle. In order to enjoy it, he was standing close to him. Perhaps someone joined him just now. The bigger the dancing circle, the closer he was to himself. He didn’t want to hinder the joy. After Jun Yiyu finished speaking, he was about to let go and back away, but his palm slipped, and a delicate little hand broke into him and pulled him forward. Jun Yiyu looked at it in surprise, but the appearance of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl was not obvious. Cai, accompanied by giggling and crisp laughter, is quite cute, seeing that the woman on the other side is also coming to hold her, Jun Yiyu doesn't know that this is to pull him into the circle to dance together!Those boys before, wouldn't all join in passively like this!

Jun Yiyu guessed right. In the Tage named for joy, the girls no longer have the usual taboos. Occasionally, the bold ones will take the initiative to circle the handsome young man who is watching and dance together. He is like this, and he is honored to be " fancy."Of course, it is not ruled out that there are romantic men who take the initiative to participate in Tage and want to kiss Fangze.

With Jun Yiyu's martial arts, it's easy to escape. Just as he was about to stop, he rolled his eyes and followed the joyful pulling force of his right hand, but his left hand pulled Jun Tianxi in backwards.I feel that I should have fun when I bring people out, but Young Master Jun is worrying about what to do to make Her Majesty the aloof Empress smile.

The woman on the left didn't hold Jun Yiyu, saw that he was playing tricks and brought another person in, and gave her a reproachful look, but still stretched out her hand to hold Jun Tianxi, the dance circle closed, and turned away again.There were many spectators around, seeing a pair of Bi people joined, there was a deafening applause in an instant.

At the beginning when Jun Chengtian doubtfully asked about Jun Yiyu's old acquaintance with Princess Lingyu of Xiwu, Jun Tianxi was at the side, and he naturally knew that Jun Yiyu's "fiancée" Lingyu was his senior sister. "Senior Sister", while Jun Tianxi was still frowning, he was kidnapped by the warmth of his palm.She struggled uncomfortably, but Jun Yiyu leaned into her ear and said, "Didn't you come out to play? The ones picked out by the workshop are all lower-level court ladies, and no one will know you. I see them dancing." It's quite simple, let's compare and see who can learn it first. If you can't compare, I can teach you if I learn it."

"Humph", the roots of his ears felt hot and itchy, Jun Tianxi calmed down and let the temperature of his right hand lead him into the ocean of joy of singing and dancing, he hummed softly to express his disdain for the challenge, and the soles of his feet stepped on the bright beat dexterously and accurately superior.

"Ah! You will!" Jun Yiyu was dumbfounded, and the dance steps that were not flattering at first became a mess, causing a few chuckles from behind.Jun Yiyu blushed. Sure enough, I am more suitable for learning martial arts? Seeing that they danced very simply, I should have asked Jing Chujiao to teach me if I knew it.

"Stupid! I'll teach you."

Jun Yiyu, who boasted that he would be a teacher, instantly assumed the role of a student, and the simple dance steps gradually became handy under the guidance of his side.Looking up and seeing Jun Tianxi's beautiful face that has faded from the coldness because of concentration, Jun Yiyu's voice could not help but be tinged with tenderness, "Because you are the one who brings them such joy, you should be happier."

With her delicate body trembling slightly, the warmth of her palms and the gentleness of her ears, together with the aim of smiling faces at ease, she was finally melted.

The smiles and dimples of the lanterns reflect each other, making this night a joy.
