Innocent cast of white iron

September [-]th in the first year of Mingde, August [-]th in the lunar calendar.

The whole capital is decorated with lanterns and festoons to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, and even the most deserted dark alleys are crowded with people.Bustling, shoulder to shoulder.Douding was held by Zhao Qi's hand and walked through the traffic.

"My lord, what's that?" Douding had never been out of the house to play in such an open and aboveboard manner. Everything seemed novel, his hands were full of all kinds of snacks, and he was licking the little sugar man.

Zhao Qi followed his fingers and looked over, it turned out to be a Lantern Street, filled with all kinds of lanterns, under the lanterns were lantern riddles.Zhao Qi led Douding and squeezed in, "Come on, Xiao Douer, let's see how much you have grown these days. Can you figure out these lantern riddles?"

Douding's eyes widened and he stood on tiptoe to look around. After a long while, with a sad face, he said, "Woo, I don't know a lot of words!"

Zhao Qi laughed and said, "Forget it, shall we go shopping elsewhere?"

Douding shook his head and said aggrievedly, "But I want that!" He pointed to a colorful lantern in the shape of a rabbit tied to a rope.The riddle is, "a pair born in heaven, a pair made in heaven" guess one word.

Zhao Qi smiled, and was about to tell the answer to the peddler, when he heard a female voice ringing in his ears, "A pair is born with a pair, the answer to this riddle is naturally the word for the vegetable bed! Boss, am I right?"

The peddler was naturally cheerful, and said, "Miss is both talented and intelligent, which is exactly the word for border!" Then he stretched out his hand and untied the rabbit lantern and handed it to the girl, "Miss, this lantern is yours."

The lantern was sold by a merchant, and of course the lantern was not given away for nothing.Everyone who answers the question needs to give a copper coin first. If the answer is wrong, they have to give another copper coin to continue answering the question.In this way, the more difficult the questions, the more people can answer them, and the more money will be earned.

The girl gave the peddler a copper coin, happily carried the lantern and was about to leave.

When Zhao Qi saw Douding, he almost burst into tears, and hurried to stop the girl, saying politely, "Miss, please stay."

The girl knew at a glance that she was a young lady from a rich family, but she was not accompanied by an attendant. When she saw someone stopping her, she was naturally terrified. She blushed and stammered, "My lord, yes, what's the matter?"

"To be honest with this lady, I just fell in love with the rabbit lantern in the lady's hand, but it's a pity that I can't guess the crossword puzzle. Dare I ask you, can you sell this lantern to me?" Zhao Qi clasped his hands and said with a smile.

The girl blushed, and quickly handed him the lantern in her hand, "Young Master, take it. Since the young master likes it, I will give it to him."

Just when Zhao Qi was about to decline again and give some money, suddenly a burly man stood in front of the girl and said viciously, "Well, you are an apprentice, you dare to bully my lady! Do you know who my lady is? !"

Zhao Qi became interested and asked, "Who is your young lady?"

The big man smiled, and said, "My lady is the daughter of the king! In a few days, she will be the prime minister's wife! I advise you to apologize quickly, or my prime minister will make you eat nothing!"

Oh, I, Zhao Qi, belong to your family?Zhao Qi thought it was funny, but didn't speak.

That girl, that is, Wang Manman, poked her head out from behind the big man anxiously, and said weakly, "Young master, you go first. The servant is not polite, so I will apologize to you on his behalf. This lantern is still for the young master." Let's play." He said and handed the lantern in his hand to Douding beside him.

Wang Manman is not an alluring figure, but she can be regarded as pretty, not to mention a gentle personality, yet lively and playful, which is really rare.Zhao Qi immediately took a liking to her, so he smiled, "It's okay." This Wang Manman is clearly Zhong Lingyuxiu's Xiaojiabiyu, and she seems to have a lot of knowledge.A while ago, didn't the little emperor say that she was not amazing and had no talent or virtue?Zhao Qi thought for a while, probably because the little emperor liked Wang Manman and was worried that he would hire Wang Manman?

The big man didn't take it seriously, as if Zhao Qi had really offended his young lady, looking at him with guarded eyes.

At this moment, the surroundings suddenly became noisy, and when one listened, it seemed that some important person had also appeared at the lantern riddle meeting.

Zhao Qi turned his head and saw Liu Changqing, the new No. [-] scholar coming, followed by several tall and strong bodyguards, each with a saber hanging from their waists, in a grand posture.It should be said that Liu Changqing's appearance is upright and gentle, but there is something enchanting in his eyebrows and eyes that only a daughter can have.At this time, he was wearing a green dress, and his black hair was loose like ink behind him. This beauty naturally attracted the attention of others.

Zhao Qi frowned, disliking Liu Changqing's high-profile trip very much.

Speaking of Liu Changqing, he has been beautiful since he was born, and his appearance follows his mother.However, this feminine appearance provoked ridicule and bullying by her peers, who only called him Miss, so Liu Changqing urinated, didn't like to talk, and didn't fit in with others. He just stayed at home to read and study.Now that he is powerful and powerful, others can no longer underestimate him. It is with this in mind that Liu Changqing came to play during the Mid-Autumn Festival with the intention of showing off.

Zhao Qi grew up in a wealthy family, and now he is under one person and above ten thousand people. No matter how outstanding his appearance is, no one dares to look at him with strange eyes.Of course, Zhao Qi didn't understand the bitter history of a small person, but felt that Liu Changqing was too complacent, which was not the way to be an official.

Liu Changqing was enjoying everyone's worship and was happy when he suddenly saw his teacher Zhao Qi standing in front of him? !Liu Changqing turned pale in shock, hurried over, bowed respectfully, and said, "Teacher, why are you out to play?"

Zhao Qi said with a cold face, "Why, should I tell you the truth first?"

Liu Changqing's face turned pale, knowing that Zhao Qi was angry, and quickly apologized, "Student dare not. I'm just worried that you didn't bring your attendant when you went out. Why don't you go around with the teacher?" He looked down at Zhao Qi again. Douding, who was holding him in his hand, was puzzled that he seemed to have no heirs, so he asked, "Who is this young master?"

Zhao Qi ignored him, and said to himself, "It's getting late, so I'm going home first." Then he turned to leave.

Liu Changqing hurried to catch up and said earnestly, "Teacher, there are so many people, the students will take you home."

Wang Manman's face was flushed with embarrassment, she didn't expect that the elegant young man just now was actually Zhao Qi, she couldn't help stomping her feet, and said to the big guy in front of her, "It's all your fault, Mrs. Prime Minister, I'm so ashamed now! "

The big man was stunned, naturally he didn't expect that the prime minister didn't have any servants and servants, so he came out to parade alone.
