In the palace, there is a long river that leads to the outside of the palace. The small bridges in the palace, the lotus ponds, and the water pools all gather here, so this time the lanterns traveled down the long stream.
But before the lanterns, Xiao Xu and Chu Qingyan walked to the lotus pond.
Although I have participated in a lotus appreciation poetry meeting last time, in the final analysis, there is no lotus flower in Kyoto as well as the carefully cultivated in the palace.
Therefore, there are many people who gather here to enjoy the flowers at a time.
When there are too many people, I worry about getting separated. There are many young people here, and they don't have such a deep concept of official position. Children are running and jumping, and they can easily bump into people. Xiao Xu took her to his side and protected her.
With him around, Chu Qingyan didn't need to be distracted to look at the road, and looked around, "Hey, where's Zhijing? Why did he disappear in the blink of an eye?"
"It should have slipped!" When Pang Zhijing walked away, she winked at him, looking like a person with good eyesight.
Xiao Xu replied lightly, as long as no one came to occupy the little guy's time, he didn't care about anything else.
Chu Qingyan sighed regretfully, "I still want to chat with her, but forget it, there is a maid by her side, so I won't worry about it." After saying that, she quickly forgot about the pity and hugged his He tilted his head and asked, "Where shall we go first?"
She didn't know how much she moved his heart every time she showed such a childish side!
Xiao Xu's heart tightened, he put his hand on the back of her hand, took a deep breath, resisted the urge to take her to a corner and hugged her to be ravaged, coughed lightly and turned his eyes away, and pointedly, "Go. Then!"
When the words fell, the person beside him snorted, "Big ice cube, you really walked into the world today and caught fireworks."
He was stunned for a moment, and looked in the direction. After seeing it clearly, he couldn't help but want to hold his forehead. The place he hurriedly pointed to was actually the most crowded place in front of him. He really rarely approached such a lively atmosphere, and he didn't Happy to meet so many people. But listening to the excitement in the little guy's tone, he didn't feel how troublesome the accident was.
If she likes it, follow her.
"I am in this world." And you are my most beautiful fireworks.
The last sentence, he hid in his mouth and did not say it.
She smiled tenderly, and then walked slowly towards the most crowded center of people under his escort.
Although Xiao Xu didn't bring many people with him, the noble spirit exuding from the two of them, as well as the coldness and stubbornness of the guards around him, made way for the people who met on the road involuntarily.
Some people are like this, without a word, you just need to look at them to know the gap with them.
The best lotus viewing position could no longer be crowded, so Chu Qingyan dragged him to the bottom of the Baiyu Bridge, stood on the edge, passed the crowded crowd, and looked at the lotus flowers on the pond.
"Wow, this lotus has many colors!" Chu Qingyan couldn't help but exclaimed.
On the nearest edge, there are lotus flowers in blue and purple colors, standing slim on the pool surface.
"That's a blue water lily."
"Then, what's that over there?" Xiao Xu looked at her shining eyes and couldn't help but act as an explanation, then he pointed to the lotus flower a little further ahead, "That's the yellow water lily, and the white one is the Hundred Flowers Guanyin. Lian, and that's lanceolate powder, Sai Jin..."
She is like a studious disciple. Every time she sees a novel variety, she can't help but ask for advice. Today's Xiao Xu is extraordinarily patient, not only from the variety category, to the flowering period, but also when she sees her adoring eyes, he It feels more fulfilling than winning a battle.
After a circle, she has already recognized all the varieties of the big pond, thanks to this omniscient master.
"Big Ice Cube, how come you know everything? As far as I know, there's nothing you can't!" She was about to make him an idol now, and her eyes were full of admiration.
Xiao Xu touched his nose. In fact, he didn't know all of them, but they were still within the scope of his knowledge. However, seeing the demeanor of a little girl like this little guy, he felt that it was worthwhile to travel around in the past few years.
However, Xiao Xu didn't have the kind of self-consciousness that he spent so many years studying and traveling and finally became the skill of coaxing his daughter-in-law, and he was also full of pride.
"What else do you want to play?" Xiao Xu asked with a light smile.
Hearing this, Chu Qingyan looked around, and finally her eyes were fixed on the river in the distance. She jumped up at once, "Big ice cube, let's set off the lanterns!"
Xiao Xu followed her gaze, and the lights were bright, and the colorful flower cages were floating on the water, which was really eye-catching.
So the group shifted their positions and moved forward.
This time, it was hard to accompany the valiant cavalry. How could they know that the master's interest in coaxing his daughter-in-law was so high today. Not only did they have to protect the two masters from being collided with, but they also had to be careful about the surrounding situation and take the most favorable position. It was torture.
There is a small pavilion not far from the river, where eunuchs are in charge of guarding, and there are lanterns of various shapes, as well as pen, ink, paper and inkstone for visitors to draw or inscribe on it.
"Big ice cube, I heard that if you write a wish in a lantern, it will come true if you put it down." Chu Qingyan pulled him to the pavilion, pointed to the rows of lanterns above and smiled.
Xiao Xu felt that this was just a way of putting unrealizable wishes on people's minds in order to gain peace of mind, but if the little guy wanted to play, he would accompany him to the end.
The eunuch guarding was a man of discernment. As soon as he saw the two of them, he greeted them attentively and recommended the best lanterns.
Chu Qingyan chose a lantern scattered by the goddess and a lion lantern for him, and then handed him the pen and paper, urging him to write quickly.
Xiao Xu glanced at her and took it without refusing.
Seeing his cooperation, Chu Qingyan pursed her lips and smiled, and then she also picked up the paper and began to write in earnest.
The glazed lights and the graceful moon shadow shone on her face, making her little face as white as snow, so delicate and beautiful, Xiao Xu was a little crazy at that moment.
When the glazed beauty stood, Jue Yan lowered her eyebrows.
"Okay, I wrote it, how about you?"
Chu Qingyan didn't notice the distractions of the people around her, blew the ink on the paper, and then raised her hand towards him.
Xiao Xu finally recovered his senses and wrote down on the paper.
Soon the paper was put into the lantern, Xiao Xu helped her carry the lantern, and the two walked to the less-traveled shore, and then like a couple, they learned to put the lantern down.
Xiao Xu didn't have much interest in this, he just put it down as if to complete the task, then turned around and waited for her, at this time, he saw her hands reverently placed on her chest, and she said something in a low voice, and finally jumped towards him. Come.
Seeing her low eyebrows pleasing to the eye, Xiao Xu suddenly remembered that over the years, he never felt bored with her, on the contrary, every day he spent with her was a gift of life to him.
As the little guy said, liking is at first sight, and love is long-lasting.
