A Precious Pearl in the Imperial City

The night breeze was breezy and the lights were shining brightly. Wang Chen's gaze swept across the laughing creatures, and looked down at the girl next to him. He stretched out his hand to help her suppress the flying silk behind him: "I will take you to taste the Lantern Festival?"

"Okay." Jiuzhu smiled and nodded, it seems that she always nodded his head and said yes.

"His Royal Highness." The dragon guard reminded in a low voice: "The subordinates and others have already inquired about that the Lantern Festival in the restaurant in front of them is doing very well."

They worry that the food at the stall outside is not safe.

Jiuzhu retracted his gaze to the stall, pulling Wang's sleeve: "Then let's go to that restaurant."

"Okay." Wang Chen took her hand and walked forward without rush, passing by the lantern shop that said lanterns were not for sale, Jiuzhu found that the lamp hanging on the highest point was gone.

"What's the matter?" Wang Chen shook the lamp in his hand: "This lamp seems to be bought here?"

"His Royal Highness, I really bought it here."

The store saw Jiuzhu standing side by side with King Chen, recognized her at a glance, and smiled awkwardly at her.

Jiuzhu turned his head and whispered to Chen Wang, "When I asked the boss just now, he still said not to sell it. How did you buy it, Your Highness?"

She smiled mysteriously in the Chen Dynasty: "Guess?"

Jiuzhu thought for a while: "Have you guessed all his lantern riddles?"

Wang Chen smiled and shook his head, holding Jiuzhu to continue walking.

"Your Highness." Jiuzhu was very curious about this: "You tell me."

"Add money." Chen Wang endured a smile: "As long as you give enough money, a boss like this kind of business will always be tempted."

Jiuzhu: "..."

It turned out to be such a simple and rude method.

"But where did you get so much money, Your Majesty?" Jiuzhu looked at him questioningly: "Didn't your Majesty say that you won't let the empress pay you?"

"The emperor father said that he would not let the queen not subsidize me, but he didn't say that he can't subsidize me." Wang Chen chuckled lightly: "He gave these money."

He didn't tell Jiuzhu that he was also rich, maybe because...she looked like she was saving money for herself, so cute.

"Your Majesty is pretty..." Jiuzhu glanced at the dragon guard behind him: "It's pretty good."

Not letting mothers give money to their children, but secretly stuffing them with them. Isn't this a model of spoiling children?

Fortunately, His Highness is Fairy Child, who didn't crook himself in a spoiled environment.

Chen Wang Qiang held back a smile: "Yes, the father has always said that he has a unique character."

Someone was selling flowers on the side of the road, and Wang Chen took out the copper coins and bought a Chunlan to put in the hair bun of Jiuzhu.

The little Chunhuahua didn't look very eye-catching, but when Wang Chen was just walking around in the street, he saw that many men had bought these things for the female relatives around him.

"Ming Xiaozhu."

"Huh?" Jiuzhu raised his head.

"The restaurant is here." Wang Chen looked at the phoenix lamp hanging at the entrance of the restaurant and smiled.

"The dragon and the phoenix are prosperous, the five blessings, perfect..." Jiuzhu looked at the names of the various lantern festivals on the signboard: "The names are all very particular."

"For the Lantern Festival, it's all auspicious." Wang Chen raised his head and saw Wang and his wife sitting on the second floor.

"Fifth brother." Wang Huai leaned against the window and looked at him with a smile: "Come up and sit down."

Wang Chen asked Jiuzhu: "Go?"

Jiuzhu nodded: "His Royal Highness invites you, how can your Highness not go."

Wang Chen looked at her and laughed, and led her upstairs.

Although many people tasted the Lantern Festival during the Lantern Festival, there were no other people in the room where Wang Huai sat.

Wang Chen pushed the door and walked in: "Big brother and sister-in-law chose a good place, where the scenery is just right, and you can see the beautiful scenery of the Lantern Festival."

Jiuzhu saluted the two of them, and the princess conceived a smile and avoided him sideways.

"Fifth brother, please sit down, the head of Ming County." Wang Huai smiled and invited the two to sit down: "The capital is such a big city, and you can meet you by chance. This is also our fate."

The servant brought up the cooked Lantern Festival: "Dear guest, this is the dragon and the phoenix, please try it."

"What is the auspiciousness of the dragon and the phoenix?" Jiuzhu asked curiously.

"The Lantern Festival in the bowl is two kinds of fillings that complement each other, the mouth is not greasy, the lips and teeth leave fragrance, and the dragon and the phoenix will be auspicious." Tang Yu said with a smile: "I also wish the two of you love to always be there, and life is sweeter than the Lantern Festival. "

"You can talk." Chen Wang took out a piece of silver and handed it to the Tang Hao: "Go and bring some snacks."

"Okay, thank you nobleman." Tang Yu happily stepped back with the silver, carefully closing the door for them.

"Taste what the filling is like?" Wang Chen brought the Lantern Festival to Jiuzhu.

"Fruit filling." Jiuzhu ate one and scooped another: "It's still fruit filling."

"Isn't that two kinds of stuffing?" King Chen picked up the spoon, picked up a Yuanxiao from the Jiuzhu bowl and ate it into his mouth.

"What's the smell?" Jiuzhu looked at him nervously.

Wang Chen put down the spoon and wiped the corners of his mouth: "Peanut and sesame filling."

Wang Huai glanced at the bowl of Lantern Festival that was unattended next to him. This bowl of Lantern Festival is not suitable for Yunduqing to eat, or something, so I have to take a spoon to scoop it into Ming County's main bowl?

"What kind of filling do your Highness like to eat?" Jiuzhu asked.

"Let's work together." Wang Chen seemed to finally remember that he also had a bowl of Lantern Festival, and brought it to him: "Just ask for auspiciousness. I don't like to eat such sticky things on weekdays."

However, with the reputation of Longfengchengxiang, he could barely finish the meal.

"His Royal Highness, look." Jiuzhu pointed out the window, the streets full of lanterns, like beautiful galaxies, brilliant and brilliant.

Wang Chen got up and walked to her, the night wind blew their hair.

"Isn't it beautiful?"

"Yeah." Wang Chen glanced sideways at her: "Very beautiful."

This kind of night, this kind of wind, and this kind of her.

It is the most beautiful Yuanxiao Ye.

Wang Huai felt that it might be a wrong choice for him to call his fifth brother and the head of Ming County to sit together.

"The more you stand on a high place, the more beautiful the scenery." Tang Yu brought melon and fruit snacks up, and Wang Huai waved him out, and said to the king Chen who was enjoying the scenery: "It's just that it's cold and windy at high places. Did the fifth brother ever think about it? , Let people help you build high-rise buildings and read the beauty of the world."

Wang Chen smiled and sat back to his original position: "Big brother joking, the whole world belongs to the father, and as the children of the father, which tall building can't go to? Why bother to build another tall building."

King Huai looked at King Chen: "The fifth brother is right. The world belongs to the father. We are protected by the father, so naturally we can go anywhere."

Someone downstairs was hawking, and the yelling passed through the streets and reached Jiuzhu's ears. She lay on the window lattice and looked at every passerby downstairs with interest.

Princess Huai observed the girl who had been back to Beijing for less than a year and brought the cheese cake to her: "Ming County Lord, taste this cheese cake."

"Thank you, Princess." Jiuzhu thanked her, bowed her head with a snack, didn't ask her about anything in the palace, and didn't take the initiative to get close to her.

Princess Huai is very strange, hasn't Ming Jiuzhu considered the matter of marrying into the royal family?

Even Sun Caiyao, before marrying the four princes, turned to her to show her a good life. Ming Jiuzhu, a woman who is in foster care and is not close enough to her family, really has no worries?

"Open your mouth." Chen Wang picked up a piece of Jiuzhu's favorite snack with his chopsticks and fed it to her mouth.

Jiuzhu ate the snack.

Princess Huai looked at the two close friends, lowered her head and took a sip of the tea in front of her. When I was young, there was the preference of the people around me, so naturally I was confident and fearless in everything.

But men are fickle.

She turned her head and looked at Wang Huai, pretending not to care about the side concubine rooms in the palace.

Although the courtyard of Zhangliu Palace is small, there is only the prince and her in the yard. She doesn't have to think about which woman's yard the prince goes to, and she doesn't have to be in trouble with herself.

Looking at the girl with a pure smile in front of her, she felt a little bit of pity in the heart of the princess, and the woman who married into the royal family could not tolerate innocence.

"The marriage between the fifth brother and the county lord of Ming County is coming soon, the eldest brother first wishes the two people a good relationship for a hundred years, and the dragon and the phoenix are prosperous." Wang Huai held up the teacup: "The fifth brother must have a few more drinks with the eldest brother by then."

Wang Chen picked up his teacup and smiled: "It's not advisable to overdose, just be happy."

"I knew that the fifth brother would go with the head of Ming County. We should make an appointment to go around together. There are so many people." Wang Huai smiled and said with a smile: "In previous years, the fifth brother didn't like to join in this kind of fun. I thought Mingxian. The Lord would be with his family, so he didn’t think much about it. It’s my fault that Big Brother was not thoughtful and didn't take care of you."

Wang Chen raised his eyebrows and said bluntly: "Big brother is drinking tea today, why is he drunk too?"

Huai Wang: "..."

He is so obvious to take refuge in favors, does Yun Duqing really do not understand, or does he not understand?

"Big brother and sister-in-law spent the Lantern Festival together, how can the younger brother bother me?" Chen Wang chuckled lightly, "Big brother said that again, sister-in-law should be angry."

Wang Huai smiled heartily: "Fifth brother is serious, your sister-in-law has always been virtuous, how can you care about such small things?"

"The younger brother does not want to disturb my eldest brother and sister-in-law, nor does he want others to disturb me and my fiancee." Wang Chen put down his teacup: "The Lantern Festival has been used up, and we should also leave."

You don't care how your princess feels, I also care what my fiancée thinks.

"Fifth brother." Princess Huai said softly: "The scenery upstairs is good. Let Ming County Lord sit for a while."

Chen Wang turned his head to look at Jiuzhu.

"I listen to your Highness." Jiuzhu seriously said: "Where does Your Highness want to go to play?"

"I'll take you to a good place." Wang Chen stretched out her hand in front of her, Jiuzhu handed him her hand, and stood up following the strength of Wang Chen pulling her: "Where to go?"

"I'll know when I go." Wang Chen walked to the door and lazily lifted his chin to Wang Huai and his wife: "Big brother and sister-in-law, goodbye."

"Fifth brother walk slowly." Wang Huai listened to the footsteps of the two going downstairs, the smile on his face faded: "Yun Duqing's character, I don't know who to follow, slippery hands, no oil and salt. "

"His Royal Highness." Princess Huai walked to the window sill and saw Wang Chen walking out of the restaurant with Ming Jiuzhu. The two of them walked away in the bustling crowd, talking and laughing, and a smile appeared at the corners of their mouths: "Fifth brother and Mingxian The Lord’s feelings are so good."

"Well, it's the same thing." Wang Huai was not interested in this topic at all: "After three to five years, it won't prevent other women from entering the mansion. You women, don't think about this all day long."

He glanced at the Yuanxiao bowl that Wang Chen had eaten: "Ooo, he actually finished a bowl of Yuanxiao, it's really rare."

I remember that when Yun Duqing was five years old, everyone was sitting at the table eating Yuanxiao, but he said that he didn't want to move the spoon at all, saying that Yuanxiao was sticky and it was not delicious.

Since then, every year's Lantern Festival, the Lantern Festival in Yunduqing's bowl, have been replaced with other foods, without exception.

"It seems that people will change." Wang Huai followed the sight of Princess Huai and looked out the window, only to see the dense crowd.

"Let's go, go back to the palace."

I don't know if it was his illusion, the fifth brother has become unpredictable when he speaks now.
