The cannon fodder through the book will live to the end

It's Mid-Autumn Festival again.Tao Anran was stunned for a moment, unknowingly, it has been a year since he came to this world.

He spent almost all of this year in this Northwest Yunzhou.He has seen the dripping water in Yunzhou turn into ice in winter, the lush greenery in spring, the unbearable heat in summer, and the high sky and light clouds in autumn.

Moreover, he and Xiao Jingyu have also respected each other as guests from the beginning, and now they are in love with each other.Together they have seen spring flowers, autumn moon, summer and winter snow.He has also changed from a lone traveler in life to a man with a partner and a family.

Recalling the past bits and pieces, I realized that time is really rushing like running water, gone forever.Now that it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, it is natural to prepare early.

Xiao Jingyu has been busy with business recently and often goes out of the house.But Mid-Autumn Eve is also a night of reunion with his family. He also puts down what he is doing and prepares to celebrate the festival with the princess.

When it comes to Mid-Autumn Festival, moon cakes are indispensable.The kitchen in the mansion even put more effort into making mooncakes with two flavors, one with red bean paste filling and the other with sesame five-seed filling.There are also lanterns of various colors hung up.

Mid-autumn night, the moon and stars are rare.The moonlight is like a disk, bright and moving.

A table is set up facing the moon in the yard, and on the table are prepared moon cakes and some melons and fruits as offerings.Then bow to the moon and pray for blessings.

Tao Anran and Xiao Jingyu also worshiped the moon according to the custom, and after worshiping the moon, they could share the moon cakes on the table.After eating mooncakes, it is like completing a ritual.It's just that the bright moon is in the sky, and being detained in the mansion always feels a bit quiet, especially compared with the bustling streets.

Xiao Jingyu suggested: "Of course, you haven't seen the Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival in the Northland yet, how about we go out to see it?"

Tao Anran immediately nodded in agreement, he had been curious about the commotion outside for a long time.If Steward Li hadn't said that he would worship the moon in the mansion, he would have wanted to go out for a long time.

This time, the two of them traveled lightly and did not take anyone else with them, so they went out just the two of them.

Tao Anran didn't know there were so many people outside until he went out.At night on weekdays, the streets are closed and almost no one walks outside.But today, every household has hung up lanterns, and there are many lanterns hawking on the street, reflecting the fact that the night is more lively than the day.

Pedestrians, no matter men, women, women or brothers, almost all hold a lantern in their hands.The paintings on those lanterns are even more diverse, including cute pictures of rabbits and tigers, pictures of various beauties and flowers, and even a picture of Chang'e flying to the moon that can be seen at a glance.

As soon as Tao Anran walked to the center of the street, he was dazzled by the various lanterns he saw.But it also made him slap his thigh suddenly and say, "Oh, we didn't come out with a lantern."

The mansion also made some beautiful lanterns today, but he didn't expect to bring them with him, so he asked people to hang them under the corridor.

Xiao Jingyu smiled and said: "It's okay, there is a lantern riddle guessing activity ahead, let's go there and have a look, pick two beautiful lanterns and win back."

Sure enough, Tao Anran noticed that there was a stall selling lanterns in front, and there were many people around.Seeing this, Tao Anran quickly pulled Xiao Jingyu who was beside her to have a look.

All kinds of beautiful lanterns are hung on the stalls, and notes of paper are hung under the lanterns.Whoever can answer the riddle on the note will get the lantern.

At this time, the small stall was full of people, and some people scratched their ears and cheeks at the puzzle, but couldn't figure it out, so they could only leave angrily.Someone guessed the riddle under the lantern he liked, said the answer loudly, and left happily holding the lantern.

Tao Anran was happily admiring all kinds of lanterns, when Xiao Jingyu asked, "Of course, do you have any lanterns you like? I'll go and guess the riddles."

Tao Anran heard this, her eyes fixed on a fat carp lantern.He pointed at the fat carp lantern and said with a smile: "This carp is quite interesting, it's so cute and silly."

Xiao Jingyu also looked at the fat carp on the lantern, and nodded understandingly. It did look stupid, but also revealed a hint of cuteness.

He picked up the slip of paper under the lantern and unfolded it, only to see that it said "count with your fingers, type a word".After a little thought in Xiao Jingyu's mind, he had the answer.It's just that he saw that the princess seemed to be still thinking hard, so he couldn't help asking: "Of course, have you thought of the answer?"

Tao Anran looked at the enigma and was at a loss for a moment.Hearing the question, he could only shake his head and said, "I don't know the answer. If you know, please tell me first."

Xiao Jingyu said to the street vendor: "The answer to the simple calculation is to cheer up, to cheer up."

The vendor immediately smiled and said, "That's right, this carp lantern is yours."

After Xiao Jingyu took the lantern, he changed hands and gave it to the princess.While Tao Anran took the lantern, he suddenly realized the meaning of the puzzle.Counting with your fingers, isn't it just counting your hands?Naturally it is shaking.

It was just the two of them, but he was the only one who carried the lantern.Tao Anran eagerly asked, "What kind of lantern do you like, I'll win one for you too."

Seeing the excited expression on Wang Hao's face, Xiao Jingyu knew that he probably wanted to guess the lantern riddles.He didn't guess what to wear, looked at the lanterns on the stall, and finally chose the same carp lantern.

Xiao Jingyu explained: "I think this lantern is really cute, so let's choose it."

Tao Anran quickly grabbed the note under the lantern, the answer was "autumn harvest, type one word".Seeing this enigma at first glance, Tao Anran was at a loss as to what to do.But after thinking for a while, he quickly reacted.

So without Xiao Jingyu's prompting, he said directly: "It's the word fire. Shopkeeper, isn't it?"

The vendor smiled and said, "That's right, that's right, this lantern belongs to you."

Walking on the road again, Tao Anran and Xiao Jingyu each carried a fat carp lantern.Tao Anran felt happy looking at it.Especially when he saw that some couples were holding a pair of mandarin duck lanterns or double lotus lanterns.And only they were holding fat carp lanterns.

Tao Anran smiled and said to Xiao Jingyu: "My lord, take a look at the pair of lanterns someone else is holding, and then look at our fat carp lantern, do you think it's different?"

Xiao Jingyu also noticed this, and he also smiled and said: "Of course, although this carp does not have as obvious a meaning as a mandarin duck, it still has a deep meaning. It is said that this red carp can cross the dragon gate and transform into a dragon. Naturally, it also has a beautiful meaning."

Tao Anran heard the words and asked solemnly: "Do we still need to cross the Dragon Gate?"

Xiao Jingyu paused, then smiled and said, "Of course you're right. We are nobles, so we don't have to work hard to cross the Dragon Gate."

But this was just for fun, and the two happily walked among the street crowd with lanterns.

Xiao Jingyu looked at the happy scene in the crowd, and couldn't help saying: "If it was in the capital, there would be more people tonight, and the lanterns would be more colorful. And people would put lanterns by the river. After all, Yunzhou is not as prosperous as the capital, At least people here will not go to put lanterns."

Tao Anran heard the words and asked: "Then there will be two people who see each other in the capital and run away hand in hand after giving each other lanterns?"

Xiao Jingyu replied: "How is it possible? Although the capital is prosperous, the etiquette is also greater than the sky. How can we teach each other in private?"

Tao Anran looked in a certain direction and replied, "But I saw it just now."

Xiao Jingyu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said: "Yunzhou is far away, the sky is high and the earth is far away, the people here are brave and unrestrained, so naturally they don't need to stick to some formalities."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Jingyu also recalled it.Although Yunzhou is not as prosperous as the capital city, it also has its own characteristics.At the very least, the openness and vastness here cannot be seen in the capital.

But more importantly, in this Yunzhou, he is accompanied by the princess, which is incomparable anywhere.

At this time, the capital city can be described in poems as, Dongfeng puts flowers and trees at night, BMW carved cars are fragrant all over the road, and fish and dragons dance all night.

It's the Mid-Autumn Festival, and not long ago it was also His Majesty's birthday.However, he only passed his fiftieth birthday last year, so there is no big event this year.Just taking advantage of the Mid-Autumn Festival, it would be nice for my family to gather around and have a meal.

Liang Wang Xiao Jingci had just come out of the banquet in the palace, and he couldn't wait to follow the crowd to a teahouse, and entered the box that had been reserved long ago.At this time, there were already people waiting in the box.

When Tao Anling saw King Liang coming in, he quickly saluted and said, "I have seen you, my lord."

Xiao Jingci quickly helped him up, and replied: "You don't need to be polite, Mr. Lao has been waiting for a long time."

Tao Anling calmly broke away from Xiao Jingci's hand, and replied: "I have just arrived, and my lord just arrived just in time."

Xiao Jingci noticed that the cup in front of him was cold, so he naturally knew that he was being modest.So he quickly apologized and said: "I'm really sorry, sir, the family banquet in the palace took some time tonight, so the king left the palace a little later."

Tao Anling raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked, "I don't blame the prince, but I wonder if the Holy Majesty has revealed some thoughts?"

Xiao Jingci naturally knew what he meant, and this is also the key now.The current debate in the court is the establishment of a prince.But the emperor remained unmoved and did not express any thoughts, but let the court officials argue.

Xiao Jingci sighed: "Father still hasn't expressed any opinion. So this king doesn't know what to do now. Obviously, this king succeeded in controlling the water and won the Ten Thousand Peoples Umbrella, but Father doesn't seem to have seen it. He's afraid I still think of my prince's brother."

Tao Anling tried to persuade him, "My lord, don't be discouraged. Your Majesty must have seen everything you have done. It's just that the king of Zhenbei is indeed the head of the heir apparent, and it's really difficult to surpass him. And you know, my lord." Some strange things that are beneficial to people's livelihood that have appeared this year."

Xiao Jingci frowned and said: "The king naturally understands what Mr. said. And the new things that appeared this year all came from the Northwest. Although there is no clear evidence, I am afraid that there are some powerful guests in the Zhenbei Palace. But these are not necessary. I'm worried, my brother's brother is seriously ill, maybe his body won't be able to hold on anytime soon."

Hearing such news, Tao Anling still didn't change his face, he just confirmed again and again: "Is the prince sure? Zhenbei King's body is really going to be overwhelmed? How long will it take? Will there be a doctor who can treat him?" Severe illness?"

When Xiao Jingci heard the words, his eyes flickered.And thinking of his father's obvious yearning for Xiao Jingyu tonight, he made a secret decision in his heart.
