The Southern Jin Dynasty’s annual Lake Lighting Tour is well-deserved.
Although Zhongli Yanqing was still complaining about the lantern festival in her heart at first, thinking it was extremely vulgar, but after seeing the colorful boats scattered on the endless lake and the colorful lanterns all over the sky, she felt that the lights were actually quite eye-catching.
Music is everywhere on the lake, and the heavenly singing is clear and sweet. There is a singing and dancing team on each boat, dancing and rotating to different sounds of music, as beautiful as a painting.
Zhongli Yanqing felt like she was watching a live broadcast on a variety show TV station.
So shocking.
The picture was so dazzling that even Zhongli Yunran, who never liked the excitement, couldn't help but exclaimed, "It's simply too beautiful."
She had never seen a lake lantern show before and found it boring, but she didn't expect the scene to be so magnificent and dazzling.
Xia Houchun stood next to Zhong Li Yanqing with a gentle face, and his deep eyes looked gently and lingeringly at Zhong Li Yanqing, who looked even more beautiful under the light.
The three of them stood by the lake and watched for a while. A follower ran over, walked up to Xia Houchun and cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, the boat prepared for you has arrived. Please come with me."
Xia Houchun nodded slightly, turned to Zhong Liyan and said softly, "Qing'er, our ship is over there, let's go there together."
To be honest, Zhong Li Yanqing also really wanted to see what the so-called lake lights were, so she replied enthusiastically, "Okay."
When Xia Houchun saw that Zhongli Yanqing was so happy, he also became happy. He ignored Zhongli Yunran and then walked in front and motioned for Zhongli Yanqing to follow him.
Zhongli Yunran stood there, feeling like a clown. His Highness the Crown Prince had not looked at her in the eyes the whole night, but he talked to Zhongli Yanqing so diligently, which made her angry to death.
If she could, she really wanted to pounce on Zhong Li Yanqing and strangle Zhong Li Yanqing to death, so that no one would come to compete with her for the crown prince again.
However, the fact is that she can do nothing but follow Zhongli Yanqing angrily and torture Zhongli Yanqing with venomous eyes.
Zhong Li Yanqing followed Xia Houchun. As if she sensed something, she suddenly turned her head without warning, and her indifferent eyes met a certain bloodthirsty eye that wanted to peel her skin and bones.
Zhongli Yunran didn't expect that Zhongli Yanqing would turn his head. For a moment, he couldn't control his eyes, and all his unwilling and jealous emotions were exposed to Zhongli Yanqing's sight one by one.
"Ah"
Zhongli Yanqing laughed sarcastically in a low voice. She looked at Zhongli Yunran unhurriedly with her eyes, and there was a careless smile at the corner of her mouth, which seemed to be sarcastic about her overestimation.
Zhongli Yunran's expression looked like he had eaten shit for a moment, and he could only endure the anger in his heart and pretend to be innocent and cute.
She has to endure it! Once on the ship, she would have the opportunity to play tricks on Zhong Li Yanqing!
Huh, so what if her identity as a legitimate daughter is taken away. After tonight, the entire Southern Jin Kingdom will know that the legitimate daughter of the Zhongli family is worse than a concubine!
When Zhongli Yunran thought of this, he raised his red lips slightly, curled his lips evilly, and sneered. Such a scene would definitely be beautiful.
She wants Zhong Li Yanqing to be ruined and her reputation will be ruined. Let’s see if she dares to compete with her for the crown prince!
… …
His Royal Highness is indeed His Royal Highness. After getting on the boat, Zhongli Yanqing looked at the lake and found that the most luxurious boat was theirs.
Zhongli Yunran had packed up all his emotions and walked to the center of the ship holding the gauze in his arms. His starry eyes flickered and he looked extremely excited, "Your Highness, you are so amazing. You can actually find such a luxurious ship."
Xia Houchun's vanity was instantly greatly satisfied, especially in front of the woman he loved, but he couldn't show it too obviously. He could only suppress his pride and said calmly, "I just found it casually." It’s just a search, it’s nothing.”
Unexpectedly, His Highness the Crown Prince actually answered what she said. Zhong Li Yunran's eyes sparkled with excitement, and he looked at Xia Houchun with an even more shy look, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is too humble."
Xia Houchun pursed his lips and smiled. He subconsciously turned his head to look at Zhong Li Yanqing, his eyes filled with unbreakable tenderness and sweetness.
This made Zhongli Yunran's calm mood become impetuous again.
At this moment, there seemed to be mysterious power flowing in the distance, and the light above the earth shone. Suddenly, a huge ship slowly drove over from the end, and finally stopped in the middle of the lake.
At this time, someone shouted excitedly, "It's begun, the lantern dance has begun."
It turns out that this so-called Lake Lantern Festival is actually just a dance party
Zhongli Yanqing understood instantly, but she didn't understand, wasn't it a dance? There's no stage, so where can I dance
"You don't know this?" Zhongli Yunran looked at Zhongli Yanqing with a proud face, and sneered at Zhongli Yanqing in a tone that sounded like you are really ignorant, "The so-called lantern dance means that there is no decoration as a background, with lanterns as the background." As a backdrop, the lake serves as the stage.”
"Oh?" Zhong Liyanqing raised her eyebrows slightly, not paying much attention, "Second sister understands this quite well."
"That's natural." Zhongli Yunran curled his lips even more proudly and continued, "Yesterday, my mother..."
Zhongli Yunran's smile immediately froze, and he looked at Zhongli Yanqing angrily.
Zhong Li Yanqing looked at her with interest, "What's wrong with aunt?"
Zhongli Yunran's little face suddenly turned red, and he gave Zhongli Yanqing a hateful look.
It was so dangerous, she almost said what her mother said last night!
This Zhongli Yanqing was simply too cunning. Fortunately, she shut up in time, otherwise her next plan would be disrupted.
How could she possibly tell Zhongli Yanqing that her mother had already sent people to pay for this so-called light dance, just waiting for her to take the bait
She had heard from the maids that the lantern dance, as the name suggests, is about dancing. At the beginning of the dance, a bouquet of flowers will be thrown, and whoever gets the flower will dance on the lake.
And this dance was specially set up for those who can dance. Basically, all the ladies can dance on the lake. Those who can't basically have not been taught by their families. She doesn't believe it. Zhongli Yanqing didn't go home. In the next fifteen years, she would have the opportunity to learn to dance, and when the boat her mother bought would throw flowers into Zhongli Yanqing's hands, she would have to look forward to it. The so-called future crown princess could not even do the simplest thing on the lake. She doesn't even know how to fly. Let's see if His Highness the Crown Prince still cares about her so much. He will definitely think that she is useless. He might even despise her, hate her, and finally abandon her!
The result is simply beautiful!
Zhongli Yunran felt so excited just thinking about it.
