As the saying goes, not seeing each other every day is like three autumns. Wen Yantong has not seen Chi Jingxi for quite a while now, and when he first met Chi Jingxi, his heart fluttered as if it was the first time they met.
She rubbed against Chi Jingxi's arms for a while, but because she was afraid of being seen, she withdrew and said, "Young Master is so busy these days, do you still have time to go to the banquet?"
Chi Jingxi touched her head, smoothed her messy hair, and said in a low voice, "Jiang Wu is an important minister in the court, and the invitation was sent to me. I can't refute his face."
Wen Yantong said, "Then when will you be free? It will be New Year's Eve in two days."
Chi Jingxi said, "These two days should be over, and then I will go find you."
Wen Yantong said, "Two days ago, Mu Xingyi said that you would come to play with me on New Year's Eve, is that true?"
Chi Jingxi nodded, "It's natural."
"Then do you eat in the palace or at my house? If you eat in the palace, I won't wait for you." She said.
"At your house." Chi Jingxi looked at her bun, and suddenly pulled out the mahogany hairpin from her hair, and put it in her hair.
Wen Yantong stretched out his hand and touched it, "What can you do for me?"
Chi Jingxi smiled but said nothing, after inserting the hairpin, said, "Let's go, don't stay here for long."
Wen Yantong thought for a while, maybe Chi Jingxi felt that there was something missing in her hair after her legs were shaken off, so he gave her his hairpin.
But in fact, there is still a big difference between men's hairpins and women's hairpins. In order not to let others see it, Chi Jingxi pushed the hairpins inward a lot, only showing the head of the hairpin embedded with gold threads.
Wen Yantong was also afraid that Jiang Ying would chase him out from behind, so he said, "You go first, I'll wait for Miss San to come with you."
When Chi Jingxi left for the last time, he glanced at her, his eyes covered with reluctance, and he lost his previous chic figure after being tied down.
Wen Yantong waited for a while, then turned to look for Fu Tanghuan, and the two returned along the same road.
Jiang Ying, who had just been rejected, was also missing.
It never showed up after that. Xu Shi was completely rejected by Chi Jingxi, and felt uncomfortable, so he refused to attend the birthday banquet again. The Jiang family had no choice but to hastily let everyone go out of the congratulatory form, and then broke up the banquet.
In the next few days, the Jiang family has been the topic of discussion, Miss Jiang's arrogance, and the Jiang family's doting.
Some rumors were about Wen Yantong. The red hairpin she was wearing that day was discovered by someone with a heart, so all kinds of rumors emerged endlessly.
Some people say that Princess Ningguang's Bu Yao fell in front of Chi Jingxi on purpose, and she did it on purpose after waiting on the bridge for a long time.
Others said that Princess Ningguang picked up Chi Jingxi's wooden hairpin but did not return it, and then put it on her head for her own use.
It was nothing more than some words that she wanted to change from a fake phoenix to a real phoenix.
After Wen Yantong heard this, she blushed with anger and her neck was thick, and the table slammed loudly, "The real phoenix and the fake phoenix are all fucking birds, would I want to be a bird?!"
In fact, she had expected these situations a long time ago. She was named princess for no reason, which naturally attracted countless eyes, and it was normal to have rumors.
However, no matter what, no one can change the imperial decree issued by the emperor, no matter how many negative rumors there are, she is still the princess of Ningguang County.
Chaoge was as lively as ever, and the New Year's Eve was ushered in with the sound of firecrackers.
Like last year, after Wen Yantong had lunch, he gave all the servants a holiday, leaving behind Mo Li who was always there to serve her.
On New Year's Eve, other people's houses were bustling with activity, but Wen's house was quite quiet. There were only a few scattered people left in the huge house, all of whom had signed death contracts.
Wen Yantong woke up lazily after taking a nap, and saw that the sun was shining outside, and the winter wind was not biting, it was a pleasant and good weather.
Thinking of them all coming to Wen's house for dinner tonight, Wen Yantong started preparing the New Year's Eve dinner early in the morning.
She called a few servants who hadn't left, and gathered together in the dining room to process the ingredients.
Since he was not sure when they would come, Wen Yantong prepared the things first, and started to make things when they came.
The ancient dining room is naturally inferior to the modern equipment. It takes a long time to process the ingredients, and it will be dark in a flash.
A group of people had been busy in the dining room for a long time, and they didn't have time to light the lamps in the house. When Wen Yantong went out to take a look, it was dark in front of him.
She hurriedly ordered people to light the red lanterns, and Wen's house suddenly became brighter, with the atmosphere of the New Year.
There was the sound of firecrackers outside. After washing her hands, she sat by the window and cut the grilles.
Thinking of this time last year, she should be in the palace, melting into that grand annual banquet.
In the blink of an eye, a whole year has passed.
Days are counted from day to day, Wen Yantong never thought that she would live in Chaoge for such a long time.
I still remember that when she first came here, she was extremely uncomfortable, and she was terrified day and night, and tried her best to leave.
Later, he was hit and limped, and learned that Songhai Academy could not escape privately, so he settled down and stayed in the academy obediently. Thinking about it now, I'm actually a little glad that I didn't leave smoothly.
If not, she might miss Chi Jingxi, Mu Yang, Fu Zixian, and such a wonderful and warm life.
Passing by them, and then throwing themselves into the vast world, maybe we will never see each other in this life.
Wen Yantong let out a long sigh, how else could one say that fate has its own destiny.
Just when she was lost in thought, Mo Li stood outside the door and announced, "Princess, the young master and the others are here."
Wen Yantong immediately put down the window grilles in his hand, and happily went out to greet her with the hem of her skirt.
When they walked to the front yard, they saw Mu Yang walking in the front, seeming extremely happy, bouncing towards the main hall.
Wen Yantong waved at them, and he saw that quite a few people came.
Mu Yang came to her first, looked left and right, and said, "Where did everyone in this house go?"
"I gave them a holiday, and they will also celebrate the New Year, right?" Wen Yantong said, "Why are you here so early?"
Mu Yang said, "I told them that you will cook in person today, so you left the palace early."
Chi Jingxi lagged behind, wearing a sandal-colored long dress, showing a bit of joy against the backdrop of the red lanterns. He came over and took Wen Yantong's hand and touched it, frowning faintly, "Why are your hands so cold? Wearing such thin clothes in winter, you have always been weak, what should you do if you are cold?"
Wen Yantong didn't expect that he would chatter three times as soon as they met, like an elder's death greeting: Are you wearing long johns
She quickly explained, "I'm going to cook later, it's inconvenient to wear too thick clothes."
"Let the servants do it." Chi Jingxi said.
"No, I want to make the New Year's Eve dinner myself." Wen Yantong refused.
Mu Yang suddenly pushed a bar in the middle, and brushed Chi Jingxi's hand away, "Brother Xi, don't you know that men and women can't tell each other? People have heard that Yantong is a girl now, and you can't touch people casually anymore." , figure out the situation."
Cheng Xin came later, just in time to hear this sentence, and said with a smile, "You are the one who is confused about the situation."
Behind Cheng Xin was Zhang Jieran who hadn't seen him for a long time.
Wen Yantong was quite surprised.
He stood not far away and stared, as if he had been greatly frightened.
Wen Yantong didn't dare to approach casually, so he asked Cheng Xin, "Did the Fifth Highness bring it?"
Cheng Xin turned his head and took a look, and said with a smile, "Since you faked your death, he has been sad for a long time. I saw that he was getting thinner and thinner, so I told him that you are not dead, and promised to bring him to see you, thinking that today is just the time. brought it to him."
He waved to Zhang Jieran, "What are you doing standing there?"
Wen Yantong took the initiative to step forward, "Brother Zhang?"
Zhang Jieran looked at her, stunned for a long time, his eyes filled with tears, "Brother Wen, I thought you..."
Wen Yantong thought it was very funny, but he didn't expect Zhang Jieran to care so much about her death, and he felt a little guilty, so he said, "I'm sorry that I had to fake my death because I had to worry about it."
Zhang Jieran wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, "Fortunately, Brother Wen is still here."
Wen Yantong smiled boldly, "What are you talking about? It's unlucky to cry during the Chinese New Year. Come in, let's clean up and prepare for dinner."
As she spoke, she glanced among the crowd, but she didn't see Fu Zixian, so she subconsciously turned her head to look at Mu Yang.
Mu Yang immediately replied as if telepathically, "Fu Zixian didn't enter the palace, so he didn't come with us, but I've already sent someone to invite him, so it shouldn't be long."
Wen Yantong nodded and invited them into the room.
Fu Zixian took a step behind, Wen Yantong was already busy in the dining room when he came.
Wen Yantong cooked a table full of dishes, including chicken, fish, meat and eggs, especially the meat dried by hand, which made a very fragrant dry pot, and Mu Yang's mouth watered when he smelled it.
After taking their seats, Moli poured everyone a glass of peach blossom wine.
These people on the table used to be vigorous youths from Songhai Academy, but now they all graduated from the academy. Zhang Jieran took part in the imperial examination and won the first prize, and was assigned to the Ministry of Rites as a servant.
Wen Yantong remembered that the last time these people sat together to eat was in Nian'an Temple, and it was also a year ago.
She asked Moli to put a whip at the door, raised her wine glass amidst the crackling sound, and said to the others, "Today is New Year's Eve, it is a rare gathering, I wish everyone here will ride the wind and waves, ride the dust, and everything goes well .”
Everyone raised their glasses and responded with a smile.
The wine glasses collided with each other and made a series of crisp sounds, and they were drank down in one gulp.
Mu Yang couldn't wait a long time ago, grabbed his chopsticks and started to eat, stuffing his cheeks to the brim, and as soon as he swallowed one mouthful, he continued with the second mouthful.
Wen Yantong looked at it with disgust, and clicked his tongue, "You eat slowly, and no one will snatch it from you."
Mu Yang said vaguely, "Why is there no one? Isn't this table full of people? Look at Brother Xi!"
Looking at Chi Jingxi again, he didn't know when a hill was piled up in his bowl, with a bunch of vegetables in it.
Wen Yantong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Eat as much as you want, you can't do this."
Chi Jingxi responded obediently on the surface, but the chopsticks holding the vegetables did not slow down at all.
Fu Zixian smiled helplessly, maybe he ate something before coming here, so he didn't eat much during this meal. Cheng Xin's eating style is even more gentle, most of the time he props his chin to watch people come and go for food.
Zhang Jieran was the most cautious one on the table, he didn't dare to put his chopsticks on the plate, Wen Yantong saw that he was uncomfortable, so he continued to use the serving chopsticks to share the dishes for him.
Chi Jingxi's eyes always swept over him, and finally Zhang Jieran couldn't stand it any longer, blushing pushed Wen Yantong's hand, and said in a low voice, "I, I can pinch myself."
Wen Yantong was still enthusiastic, "Then you can eat freely, so as not to be full."
Zhang Jieran poked his neck and nodded.
The lively New Year's Eve dinner was almost finished, Wen Yantong remembered that there was sweet soup cooked in the dining room, so he got up and went to the dining room to serve it.
After entering the dining room, she lifted the lid of the jar and was stirring the sweet soup with a wooden spoon when she heard Chi Jingxi's voice from beside her, "What is this?"
When she looked up, she saw him leaning on the door frame, looking down at the soup can in front of her.
"It's sweet soup, I'll serve you a bowl for each of you later." Wen Yantong smelled it, only to feel that the steam from the soup was sweet.
Chi Jingxi came up, grabbed the wooden spoon, and put it aside, "I have something for you."
Wen Yantong didn't care, and said, "Hurry up, or the soup will be overcooked and it won't taste good."
Seeing that her attention was still on the sweet soup, Chi Jingxi pinched her chin and turned her gaze away.
His eyes were full of seriousness, Wen Yantong's heart skipped a beat, "Yes, what is it?"
Chi Jingxi stared at her for a moment, then took out a piece of bright yellow brocade from his bosom.
When Wen Yantong saw this look, he knew that this thing was unusual.
After unfolding it, he handed it to Wen Yantong with an extremely solemn expression, "I asked the emperor for this."
Wen Yantong was puzzled, took it over and took a look, only to find that it was an imperial decree to bestow marriage.
"By God's blessing, the emperor's imperial edict said: I heard that Princess Ningguang is extremely intelligent, graceful, quiet and elegant. I am very pleased to hear that. Chi Jingxi, the son of the Marquis Mansion, is now weak. When it is time for marriage, you should choose A virtuous woman and a wife. Princess Ningguang and Chi Jingxi can be said to be made in heaven and earth. To be the beauty of a beautiful woman, you are specially betrothed to Chi Jingxi as a wife. All etiquette will be handled jointly by the Ministry of Rites and the Marquis of Qin, and a good day will be chosen Get married."
She was startled suddenly, and when she looked up again, she realized that Chi Jingxi's eyes were full of hope, but also cautious, "If you wish, this imperial decree can be announced to the world."
Wen Yantong immediately understood. This imperial decree was secretly obtained by Chi Jingxi, based on her wish, if she is willing, this is the imperial decree for bestowing marriage, if she is not willing, it is just a scrap.
Like a marriage proposal.
Wen Yantong always thought that she would not experience a romantic proposal ceremony like modern times, but she never expected that Chi Jingxi would really surprise her.
Perhaps this is what Mu Yang mentioned earlier, the gift that Chi Jingxi wanted to give her.
Her heart was beating violently, and she threw herself into a hug for Chi Jingxi, tiptoed to his ear and whispered, "Thank you."
Chi Jingxi embraced her, "So?"
"I would."
Chi Jingxi let her go a little bit, his handsome eyebrows and eyes were full of starry smiles, then he lowered his head and pressed a kiss on her lips.
Chi Jingxi's surging emotions, far less calm than the surface, conveyed between his lips and teeth, warm and hasty, like a burning flame.
Wen Yantong's eyes became hot, and there were tears, she closed her eyes and covered the tears in them.
When the sweet soup was served, everyone's attention was on the bowl of soup mixed with fungus pulp, and no one noticed that Wen Yantong's eyes were red.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, Mu Yang clamored to set off the sky lanterns.
He specially bought the sky lanterns, and everyone has a share.
Wen Yantong ordered people to fetch pens and asked everyone to write down their wishes on the sky lanterns.
Mu Yang was the fastest to write, but he was the last one to finish it. Wen Yantong went over to take a look and saw that he had written a lot again, so he slapped the back of his hand, "You are too greedy, write less, be careful not to overwhelm yourself." Sky lanterns can't fly."
Mu Yang deliberated a few times, finally gave up a few wishes, and then rushed to release them with everyone.
Several sky lanterns rose from Wenzhai together, slowly floating high into the sky with noisy sounds.
Standing beside her, Chi Jingxi saw her staring up at the sky lantern and asked, "What wish did you make?"
Wen Yantong smiled and said, "May the prosperous age stay in Shaojing for a long time, and Gu Chaoge live in peace."
In the sky lanterns that were released on the Lantern Festival last year, Wen Yantong wrote on the sky lanterns: May the rest of my life be safe and smooth.
At that time, she just wanted to escape from Chaoge quickly, stay away from the chaos of war, and find a stable place to live well.
But today, one year later, she hopes that this prosperous Chaoge will always be peaceful, without wars, internal strife, and bloody storms.
There are only the wind hovering in the sky, the sunshine falling on the earth to moisten everything, and the laughter of the people in Chaoge.
Also, the person she loves.

Title: I Always Get Fake Scripts (Campus)
Copywriting: Lu Wan, as a supporting role in Mary Su's campus, suddenly awakened one day, with a script of "Save the Heroine" in his hand.
She decisively threw the script into the trash can. As a result, he fell down the stairs that day and fell into the hospital.
Lu Wan: Damn, why!
Later, when I saw from the script that the heroine was trapped maliciously in the men's room, Lu Wanyi gritted her teeth and covered her face with a red scarf to save her, only to see the school bully leading his brothers to gather to smoke.
The scene was a bit embarrassing, Lu Wan pretended to be stupid and backed out.
Seeing the heroine being bullied in the equipment room, Lu Wan took a broom stick to save her, only to see the school bully beating her inside.
The scene was very embarrassing, Lu Wan pretended to close the door blindly.
Seeing the heroine tied up in the woods, Lu Wan bought scissors to save her, but ran into the school bully having a tryst with his little girlfriend.
The scene was extremely embarrassing, Lu Wan ran away, but luckily her two legs moved so fast that she was not caught up.
The next day, rumors that the daughter of the Lu family was a stalker spread all over the campus.
Lu Wan was so angry that she took out the fake script in her pocket and tore it to pieces: "Your motherfucker, don't I want to lose face? Garbage! Bah!"
Then Lu Wanxue became smarter, and every time the script appeared again, she tried every means to pass the information to the second male lead. I was also particularly worried and often went to see the scene where the hero saved the beauty.
Who knew that the school bully with a displeased face grabbed him by the collar: "Didn't you like to follow me before? You got a new love so soon?"
Lu Wan: How dare I dare, I still like to follow you.
Lu Wan: ...Why did I admit that I am a stalker
