"No heirs??" Ye Qiqi looked at Mo Hanqing with doubts and asked, "Why, doesn't he have a wife?"
"That's not true." Mo Hanqing was silent for a moment, and then said to Ye Qiqi: "The current Emperor of the Night Kingdom, besides the Queen, is said to have three thousand beauties in the harem, but I don't know why, so many concubines... No one can bear him an heir."
"Uh... this..." Ye Qiqi couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
After marrying so many concubines and still not being able to give birth to a single child, the problem should not be with the concubines...
"It's not like there are no children at all." Mo Hanqing thought for a moment, then said to Ye Qiqi: "It is said that many years ago, the emperor of the Ye Kingdom had a particularly beloved concubine. After that concubine became pregnant, she gave birth to a child. The child, it’s just a pity that the child died not long after, and the concubine also passed away not long after, and since then the emperor of the Night Kingdom has neglected everyone in the harem.”
"Huh? Is that so?" Ye Qiqi was stunned for a moment, never expecting that the emperor of the Night Kingdom could be such an affectionate person.
"Probably, I don't know the details." Mo Hanqing responded casually.
"Oh..." Ye Qiqi turned his head and looked at the capital of the Night Kingdom, which was getting closer and closer to him. For some reason, a trace of curiosity arose in his heart. A person who can govern the country so prosperously and affectionately, who knows? What will it look like.
The wheels of the carriage rumbled forward on the ground. At sunset, Ye Qiqi and the others finally entered the capital of the Night Kingdom.
The sun was setting in the sky, and the warm orange light was shining on the earth. In the capital city of the Night Kingdom, the pedestrians walking on the streets were talking and laughing. They had no intention of rushing home at all. On the contrary, they were Many people walked out of their homes one after another.
The streets were full of lanterns and festoons, and the unlit lanterns hung on both sides of the street, reflecting the festive glow on people's faces, making it particularly lively.
Ye Qiqi looked at the scene outside the car window strangely, and couldn't help but ask Mo Hanqing: "Is today a holiday? Why are so many people on the street?"
"Today?" Mo Hanqing was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and thought for a moment, then suddenly said to Ye Qiqi: "Today is the Lanyuan Festival of the Night Kingdom."
"What is Lanyuan Festival??" Ye Qiqi looked at Mo Hanqing puzzled and asked.
"It is the last day of summer. In the evening of this day, the people of the Night Kingdom will come to the streets together. Everyone has a lantern in their hand. People gather together to put out Kongming lanterns, or put out lanterns with wishes written on them. Go to the river and pray for good weather next summer." Mo Hanqing explained to Ye Qiqi: "This day is also a day to marry Jinlan and find love. If you have someone you like, you can usually choose to confess your love on this day. "
"It sounds like a lot of fun." Ye Qiqi looked at the beautiful lanterns on the streets outside eagerly, and couldn't help but beg Mo Hanqing: "After we find an inn to stay in, let's go out and play. OK??"
"Didn't you say before that after you found the inn, you were going to lie down and take a long nap?"
