In the blink of an eye, it was the fifteenth day of the first month, the Lantern Festival.

It is a tradition to watch lanterns and guess fans during the Lantern Festival. Although there are murders in the city, it is very disturbing. There are soldiers patrolling in the city every day, and the atmosphere is tense. But soon, the ensuing festival dilutes the tension. People also let go of the consternation in a calm day. After all, this kind of thing is too far away from them. In addition, the army is stationed in the city all year round, which makes them feel a little secure.

However, only a few days after Zhang Blacksmith's murder was not closed, the murderer has not yet landed, as if evaporated from the earth, the soldiers searched from house to house, and did not find any suspicious characters, making Wen Liang suspected of this. The murder may not have been done by North Vietnamese. However, despite this, the vigilance in the city has not been relaxed. After all, General Zhao is still sick, and the news must be hidden before the court has clear instructions.

"It seems that the murderer is deeply hidden!" Wen Liang shook a fan in the study room. "If the murderer has already left, someone has hid him. I believe the latter."

Chu Baning put the documents before the case on the table, and Wen Liang's words were right in his guess.

"Master, I guess the city is so vigilant, I believe that the murderer will not have any action in a short time."

Chu Ba-ning nodded, his eyes gloomy, and said, "Before the emperor's will come, don't relax your vigilance. If General Zhao's condition is good, if not, ..." The voice broke, the meaning inside was self-evident. Metaphor.

"Well, this Zi Xiu knows. Whether General Zhao can be good or not, the news will not let North Vietnamese know. It is also good to strengthen vigilance so that they dare not take action."

After two more discussions, the matter was finally settled.

At this time, Chu Baning looked up out of the window and found that the snow outside had stopped.

"Oh, snow just stopped in time, I believe it's okay to go to watch the lights at night." Wen Liang closed the fan and patted her palm gently, and said with a smile: "The weather is fine tonight, I heard that Princess I'm going to enjoy the lantern. "

Chu Ba-ning glanced at him, Wen Liang quickly said, "This is what I heard from Cui girl last night. She said that Mrs. He and Lord Cheng Shou will go to the street to see lanterns tonight. The princess was envious and planned to also Check it out. Hey, lord, if you are really so busy, Zi Xiu doesn't mind acting as a guard in the house to **** the princess to the lantern. "In the end, Wen Liang still doesn't change the apathy who fears the world is not chaotic. Look at the look of a prince's hair.

Chu Baning slightly hooked his lips and said, "Then you will be a guard!"

"..."

After Wen Liang opened his mouth and watched a certain grandfather finish speaking, Shi Shiran got up and walked away, then a look of sorrow and indignation: tat, he is a literati, wouldn't he really let him wear the guard's clothes as a follower? Lord, can you be so cruel when you are swollen ...

At the beginning of the Huadeng Festival, firecrackers rang out from time to time. When Ananda was thinking about what to do to the Lantern Festival tonight, Chu Baning suddenly came in and said that she was ready to go out and watch the lantern together.

Although Ananda was stunned, she immediately called to Huanhuan to let her get up.

Although she didn't know how Chu Baning would know how to accompany her out to watch the lantern, but such an opportunity was rare. It was a fool to refuse it.

When Ananda changed his outfit and arrived at the side hall, he saw a man wearing a black guard costume standing there and talking to Chu Baning. When the man turned his face, Agui could not help clearing his face. He blurted out: "Master Wen, how do you dress like this? Is there any special meaning?"

Wen Liang glanced sadly at Chu Baning, who was looking serious, and said to Ananda: "This is what your family's grandfather meant! Princess, here is the guard in your house, specially to **** you to enjoy the lantern. Poor guard. So, please take care of the princess today. "

Ananda chuckled her lips, looked at Chu Baning, and saw that his face was normal, but there was a slight smile in his eyes. It seemed very pleasant to Wen Liang's appearance.

"Okay, let's go out."

Chu Baning gave an order and took Ananda, two Yahuan and a few guards to go out together.

************

The dark sky, Haoyue was empty.

When a group of people came to the street, they saw red lanterns hanging all over the street. There were people coming and going in the street. Some children with various lanterns chased after me. Parents were chasing after fun. Shouted behind the child. There are many small vendors selling various lanterns on both sides of the street, including lantern riddles, lanterns, chanting couplets, snacks and snacks, and dragon lanterns, stilts, and lion dances. program. From a distance, the lively street scene and the red lanterns in the air are exactly: a song of spring is like a sea, and a thousand lights are like night.

"Miss, let's guess the lantern riddles!" Ru Cui went to Ananda and said happily.

Ananda's face turned black.

As soon as Rui Cui's eyes turned, she knew what her expression meant, and she couldn't help but cover her lips and smile, in exchange for Ananda's anger.

"Prince and princess, go and guess the lantern riddles. Tonight we are going to be a king of lantern riddles." Wen Liang opened the fan and said with a shake.

Ananda looked stubborn. When he was about to say that he was not interested, who knew Chu Baning had already given his consent.

Ru Cui snickered and watched Ananda reluctantly followed Chu Ba Ning to a booth that guessed lantern riddles.

"As Cui girl, what are you laughing at?" Wen Liang walked behind them, and naturally found something strange about a girl.

Ruicui smiled at him and stunned the two men who walked in front of him, and said generously: "Because the princess is very unlucky, every time I guess the lantern riddle, I always get the hardest one, and then there are ten □ Unable to guess, over time, she did not like guessing lantern riddles. "

When Wen Liang heard it, his eyes lightened, and then he smiled, "Can you get the simplest and easiest guess every time you guess a lantern riddle?"

Ru Cui ’s eyes became moon buds. “Slave is better than the princess. There is really only one point.” Even so, Ru Cui remembered that during the Lantern Festival every year, Ananda and the clan ’s sisters went to enjoy the lantern. The bitter expression when guessing the lantern riddles still couldn't help laughing.

However, although Ananda is unlucky, but she has a girl with a lucky value. Every time Ruyi makes a shot, it is definitely an example. She always gets those IQs that are as simple as Ananda. People can also guess the puzzles, and Rucui is Ananda's girl ring, so the credit for guessing the lantern riddles is given to Ananda, making Ananda the one who receives the most prizes for lantern riddles every year, so that those cousins There are all kinds of envy, envy and hate.

"Girl, my lord thought, maybe the good luck of your princess was to take your girl away, right?" Wen Liang said thoughtfully.

"How can Lord Wen say so? The slave is the princess, and the slave is given everything by the princess. How can she take the good luck of the princess? The slave is not a confused person." Rucui retorted, Taking a look at Wen Liang, he added: "Rest assured, Lord Wen, you are definitely not an example for slaves to learn!"

"..."

Wen Liang was tangled. Do you think that what this girl said makes people feel special?

The group came to a small vendor, and the owner of the vendor saw the group dressed gorgeously, rich or expensive, with a warm smile on their faces, and immediately greeted them.

Chu Baning looked at it, then looked at Ananda, "Ananda, pick it up."

Ananda struck him, and struck those lanterns hanging in a row, just like watching a serpent and a beast.

Perhaps her expression was so rich that Chu Baning was puzzled. She leaned over her and asked, "What's wrong?"

Ananda shook his head, and decided not to talk about his bad luck. He smiled sweetly at him and said, "Master, I just look at it, you guess." Eyes rolled, and said with a smile: "I'm waiting to receive The prize will do. "

Chu Baning smiled slightly and didn't force it. He went to take a lantern hanging on a bamboo shed, and took off the sign paper under the lantern.

There, Wen Liang tried to test if Ru Cui's lucky value was really that good, so he asked Ru Cui to help him pick lanterns and let him guess. As a result, soon they both got a bunch of prizes. The owner of the small street vendor saw the two solve the riddles at an incredible speed, and the whole face was wrinkled with painful pain, thinking that there was a clever one today, and none of them fell to him, secretly crying.

Ananda's envy, envy, and hatred. The two together are really a combination of two swords. The world is invincible. The stall owner is going to lose money today. However, when Chu Baning handed her a lantern-like lantern, Ananda immediately smiled, and no longer jealous of the two, her whole heart was easily cured by her grandfather.

However, looking at that rabbit-shaped plump lantern, I couldn't help but say, "Master, I prefer tiger lanterns." Obviously there are so many lanterns to choose from, but Chu Baning just took them. With such a shape, Ananda couldn't help but put forward his own opinions.

Who knew Chu Ba Ning gave her a sideways glance, a smile slipped in her eyes, and said, "It's very much like you!"

"..." Ananda twitched. Where did this chubby silly rabbit-shaped lantern look like her?

Chu Baning's mind is very good. After solving several lantern riddles and winning prizes, they were given to Ananda, and then he stopped guessing.

Seeing that Cui Wenliang and the two were still excited to let the stall vendor's boss go bankrupt, Chu Ba Ning smiled and led Ananda into the crowd. Several guards only followed far away. For an instant, Ananda felt both of them. It's like dating.

As people passed through layers of people, Ananda noticed that the man beside him was slightly frowning, and the hand that originally held her almost changed to circle her waist. Especially when the crowd around her is crowded, she will be taken into his arms to avoid being hit by people on the street. And every time he avoids touching his clothes slightly, he will frown for a long time. However, looking at him like this, she would rather be touched by herself than by a pedestrian.

Ananda then remembered his cleanliness, and his heart was funny and angry. He was so crowded, presumably he didn't like it. And his subtle desire to possess her made her sweet again.

Ananda felt sorry for him, and said, "Master Wang, let's go back."

Chu Baning looked at the crowd around him, nodded, pointed at a big tree not far away and said, "Let's go there and put the lantern and go back home."

In the soft water of the warm mountain in the south of the river, people are used to making lanterns in the river in the city to make a wish. In the north, there are few mountains and few rivers, and people hang lamps on trees to make a wish.

Chu Baning took Ananda to walk under the tree. Many lights have been hung on the tree. They look like diamonds on black velvet cloth. They look very nice. The tree is too tall, which is the test of Ananda's small body, so that she can only stare at the branches and dry eyes. Chu Ba Ning smiled with a lip, took the lamp in Anan's hand and hung it on a branch, then glanced at Anan.

Ananda smiled at him and quickly made a wish with his hands folded.

After making his wish, Chu Baning saw too many people and was looking for a way to go back to the palace with few people, but he heard a cry.

"Prince and princess."

They looked around and saw He Chengshou's husband and wife and their three children, followed by a few young servant women.

In addition to the three girls who were held in their arms by the mother-in-law, the two boys had stepped forward smartly and greeted them.

"Prince, Princess, I didn't expect to see you here. Are you going back now?" He Chengshou asked with a smile.

Chu Baning nodded, politely greeted the couple with He Chengshou, and then separated.

"Master, would you wait for Master Wen?" Ananda asked. Wen Liang abducted her girl ring, but she was a little worried.

Today, Wen Liang clearly plays the role of a guard, but he is extremely unqualified. He took Ruyi's lucky ring to watch the lantern riddles everywhere, and took the simple and easy-to-guess lantern riddles at each booth. As a result, an unsuspecting person looked in his eyes, sighed, and gave Wen Liang an elegant title of "Guess the Lantern Riddle". Of course, the opposite is that now the stall owner on that street sees the two people as soon as they see them, and they ca n’t wait to destroy the two goods that affect them.

"No, let them play, they will come back after playing enough."

So, with the exception of Wen Liang and Ru Cui, the rest followed Chu Baning and Ananda back to their homes.

Back in the house, Zhang Xuan brought the dumplings up and smiled at the two masters: "Prince and princess, I have eaten dumplings on the Lantern Festival today. After eating the Lantern dumplings, I can reunite all year round."

Said, Yahuan brought up the good dumplings. The dumplings are different from modern ones, and they are mostly one-third. There are exactly ten bowls, which is perfect. The fillings in dumplings are sugar, sesame, red bean paste, nuts, date puree, etc. Ananda likes bean paste fillings, Chu Ba Ning likes nut fillings, Wen Liang likes sesame fillings, in order to take care of everyone, Zhang Xi will like everyone The filling is done.

It is customary to eat dumplings on the Lantern Festival, and dumplings must be eaten, but Ananda cannot eat five after eating five.

"After eating it!" Chu Baning ordered seriously after seeing Ananda put down.

When the lord posed such a serious expression, he was so embarrassing that no one dared to arrogantly confront him. Although Ananda has been harmonious with his husband and wife life recently, he still dares not to provoke him at some time and can only continue to eat with a frown.

"Princess, the prince is also for your good. This dumpling, it will take a year to reunite," Zhang Xuan explained with a smile.

When Ananda did not leave the court, because she was just a niece, she ate dumplings during the Lantern Festival, but no one would pay special attention to her, so she always ate a few sexually every year and let the girl ring take it secretly. I have been used to this practice for so many years, so I do n’t have any idea of ??“reunion”. But this time Chu Baning forced her to finish eating, and suddenly, she understood his intention.

Although it is only an iconic thing, he also hopes to use this to bless them with reunion.

Well, Ananda understood what he meant, and decided to stuff them even if it was difficult to swallow.

However, when there were three bowls left, Ananda felt that his stomach was very supportive. This ancient rice dumpling was made bigger than the modern one. Ananda eats five and is full. After eating these ten, she will have to take a walk in the yard to eat.

It was probably too pitiful to see her. Chu Baning used a spoon to scoop two out of her bowl into her own bowl and left one for her. Left! "

"Thank you Lord, you are so kind to me."

Ananda suddenly smiled like a flower, and said sincerely.

The author has something to say: To talk about it, many people say that Ananda calls himself "the palace" very thunderous, and the fog has checked the information. The princess can call herself "the palace" when compared to people with low-level bodies. 2k novel reading network
