The sun just set on the mountain here, and the bright and clear moon like a jade plate climbed to the sky over there, and the dark sky was shrouded in pale moonlight.

The hazy white moonlight sprinkled among the bamboo forests, looking up, it seemed that even the emerald green bamboo leaves were shining with white light, like the silver frost in autumn.

The Tianji Building in the distance is decorated with fiery red lanterns, which is more beautiful than the famous buildings in the south of the Yangtze River.

Asking someone to bring down the rest of the food, Yan Banting rubbed his belly and sighed.

"Why do I make bamboo shoots every time I come back?"

The person who came to clean up the food was a half-grown boy with a round face and a bald head, wearing a loose Taoist robe. Although he looked cute, he was always somewhat nondescript.

The boy was handsome and cute, his eyes disappeared when he laughed, and he spoke to Yan Wanting in a familiar tone.

"Your Highness, we cook this freshly, and it's very fresh. Besides, isn't the chef in our valley best at braised bamboo shoots, stir-fried bamboo shoots and mixed bamboo shoots?"

Yan Wanting angrily reached out and tapped the boy's bald head.

"Although I am not picky, I have never been picky in the past. But there is someone in my heart, so I can't wrong her. Change the dishes tomorrow. If the chef refuses to change, then change the cook."

Yan Wanting blatantly said something about her sweetheart, but Xia Qiulian, who was playing with a pot of orchids by the window, jumped in her heart and turned her head to look over.

The boy held the packed food box and looked at Xia Qiulian with his head poking around.

"The person on the top of His Highness's heart is this beautiful young lady."

Yan Wanting grabbed the boy by the sleeves and walked towards the door, if he didn't think the boy was heavy, he would have thrown him out.

"There are only three people in this room. If it's not her, it could be you. Get out as soon as you finish cleaning up. What are you doing here?"

The people in the valley were very familiar with Yan Wanting, they joked and played around on weekdays, but no one thought how precious and majestic Yan Wanting was.

Just now, he was impatient with the boy who brought the food. After driving him away, he turned his head to look at Xia Qiulianyan's handing pavilion with a gentle smile on his face, as sweet as a spring breeze.

"Qiu Lian, why don't we walk among the bamboo groves and look at the night in the bamboo groves."

Putting down the orchid leaf she was holding, Xia Qiulian nodded without hesitation.

"it is good."

Yan Wanting was originally walking side by side with Xia Qiulian, but slowly she slowed down, took a few steps, and stood behind Xia Qiulian.

Looking at her white skirt and ink-stained black hair blown by the breeze, she stared in amazement.

"Looking at Qiu Lian like this, it's like seeing a fairy from the sky, she's so spotless and graceful."

Xia Qiuling paused, turned around and looked at Yan Wanting, her bright red lips were slightly raised, revealing a slight smile.

"Your Highness has praised Qiulian more than once or twice today. Your Highness has a plan."

Yan Wanting has been around Xia Qiulian's side today, even if she turns a page of the book, Yan Wanting can praise her for her outstanding demeanor and extraordinary temperament.

Yan Wanting raised her eyebrows, and her eyes showed a sly light. She walked around Xia Qiulian twice with her hands behind her back, smiling half jokingly and half seriously.

"What plot do I have against Qiu Lian, does Qiu Lian not know?"

Xia Qiulian glanced at her indifferently, with anger and shame, turned her head and walked forward Shi Shiran.

Yan Wanting walked forward quickly, grabbed Xia Qiulian's hand, slender and white lightly brushed it and missed it, and clasped his fingers tightly.

Sighing, Yan Wanting looked towards the bamboo forest path.

"When I return to the palace, I'm afraid the days I will be alone with you will be fewer."

Xia Qiulian squeezed Yan Wanting's hand back slightly, she looked straight ahead, her dark eyes gleamed with dim light, she pursed her lips and said softly.

"As long as His Highness remembers it, Qiu Lian will be happy."

Xia Qiulian seldom showed emotion, and sometimes even Yan Banting was a little uncertain whether Xia Qiulian had feelings for her.So every time Xia Qiulian showed her concern for her, she was very happy.

She turned around immediately, and on the path of the bamboo forest whirling with bamboo shadows, she stretched out her hand and gently grabbed Xia Qiulian's shoulder, as if the tenderness in her eyes was about to overflow.

"I'm worried, don't you know, this palace is all about you, and I wish I could be alone with you every day."

The bright moonlight that day was dazzling, Xia Qiulian raised her head slightly, and caught a glimpse of Yan Banting's face, so affectionate and determined.

The hazy moonlight seemed to cover up all the sharp corners of her face, and her eyes were like two suns shining in the sky, bright and dazzling.

By coincidence, Xia Qiulian reached out to caress Yan Banting's eyebrows and the corners of his eyes, and asked what he had been thinking all along.

"If everything is over, you are willing to let go of your honorable status, you are willing to let go of your glory and wealth, and go with me to a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to end this life."

Without thinking for a moment, Yan Wanting blurted out.

"It's my wish, I really don't want to take you there now."

But after speaking, Yan Wanting hesitated for a moment.

Drop everything?

Yan Wanting answered without hesitation, causing Xia Qiulian's body to tremble. She leaned gently on Yan Wanting's chest, holding Yan Wanting's skirt carefully with her hands like a small animal, and said softly.

"If that day really comes, I hope His Highness can really leave with Qiu Lian."

Tianji Valley is a bit cold at night.

The two senior brothers who were watching the night were holding long swords and carrying lanterns, and they kept complaining about the strong wind, and the bones hurt from the night wind.

After a short walk, we arrived at the Houshan Bamboo Forest.

In the past few days, Her Royal Highness has brought a woman to live in the bamboo forest, and the security of the back mountain is much stricter than before.

Looking at the bamboo house where Her Highness the Princess lived from a distance, she was surprised to find that all the lanterns in the bamboo house had been extinguished, even the lanterns under the pavilion had been completely extinguished.

A short and handsome junior brother pulled the people around him and asked.

"Brother, did something happen to His Highness? Why are the lights off? In the past, even if His Highness took a rest, the lanterns were still on."

"I don't know, it's better for us to take a look in the past to be cautious."

The other brother frowned, and simply dragged his brother to the dark bamboo hut.

Just before he took two steps, there was a slight cracking sound above his head.

The two hurriedly took a few steps back holding their swords, staring vigilantly at a tightly wrapped man in black who fell from mid-air.

The man in black landed steadily on the ground with the long sword on his back, without making a soft sound, as light as a feather.

His sharp eyes glanced at the two people in front of him, and the man in black said coldly.

"Your Highness has ordered that no one else be allowed to approach the bamboo house tonight, you two should leave as soon as possible."

After seeing the gold thread embroidery patterns on the corners of the mask of the man in black, the two senior brothers who watched the night breathed a sigh of relief, and clasped their fists together.

"Brother Dark Guard, the two of us just saw that the lanterns in His Highness's bamboo house had been extinguished, and we were afraid that something would happen to His Highness, so we came to investigate. Since His Highness is fine, we two will continue to tour and disturb Big Brother Dark Guard."

The bamboo house with the lanterns turned off was a little dark, but through the cold white moonlight from the window, two overlapping figures could be vaguely seen lying on the bed.
