The finished products are placed on the ground, and the candles inside are just waiting to be lit to burn.

"I see that you seem to be a little worried lately. Write down all your worries and let them fly. Let them take your worries away from you."

Fu Anshu was a little moved, but also a little speechless.

"Isn't this the Kongming Lantern? I also played with it when I was a child, but I have never heard that it can bring troubles and keep away from oneself."

Even though she said this, she still liked it a little bit in her heart.

The point is not that the Kongming Lantern has any effect, but that her best friend noticed her emotional changes, even though she hid it very well.

Ning Qingxi directly handed her the quill in his hand, regardless of whether she agreed or not. He squatted down, held the Kongming Lantern, held it in front of him and said to her:
"I'll hold it for you, come and write."

"Whether it's worries or wishes, you can write them here."

It's mainly a psychological comfort. Ning Qingxi used to think this thing was useless, even a little childish and ridiculous.

But people are happier when they live a little naively.

This is also a method of psychological venting.

"We all turned our heads. Once you've finished writing, just light the Kongming Lantern."

Chang Wencheng was slightly startled and looked at Ning Qingxi, who looked serious, as if he didn't expect that the other party would behave in such a childish way.

But he also turned his head very cooperatively with Ning Qingxi.

After waiting for a while, the two of them heard nothing, but the next second they heard the friction sound of Fu Anshu writing on the paper with a quill.

The corners of Ning Qingxi's mouth raised slightly.

As the first true friend in ancient times, she values ​​​​it very much.

Fu Anshu just cooperated with Ning Qingxi at first, but the moment she picked up the pen, she still took it seriously.

[I hope my father is safe]

It wasn't until she let the Kongming Lantern fly that Ning Qingxi and Chang Wencheng turned around.

Ning Qingxi asked with a smile: "How is it? Do you feel more comfortable?"

Fu Anshu thought for a while and nodded slowly, "It seems a little bit."

She looked up at the Kongming Lantern flying farther and farther away, and thought to herself: I hope you can bring my wishes to the gods and Buddhas in the sky.I had already lost my mother and I didn’t want to lose my father again.

A few people were playing in the courtyard, and Wang Xiujuan came with her servants carrying afternoon tea prepared in the kitchen.

Fu Anshu's preferences are very similar to Ning Qingxi's, and he also loves food.

Seeing that the other party was chatting with Wang Xiujuan, Ning Qingxi secretly asked Chang Wencheng next to him:
"What's going on with An Shu? Do you know?"

Chang Wencheng looked at the girl in front of him. The two were so close that he could even smell the fragrance of each other.

He hurriedly took a half step back, a trace of uneasiness flashed across his face.

I was also wondering why there wasn't such a big reaction when the two of them discussed craftsman knowledge together?

He thought for a while, coughed covertly and said, "Nothing happened in the palace. The only thing that worries An Shu is the marriage."

"But the empress will not force An Shu, so..."

As he spoke, his tone suddenly paused, "I thought of it."

Ning Qingxi looked up unconsciously, listening in her heart and envying the other person's height.

Now she is just a little bean sprout measuring 1.5 meters [-], and she doesn’t know when she will grow back to her previous height.

"Everyone An Shu cares about is in Kyoto, except her father."

Ning Qingxi returned to his thoughts, frowned and asked, "Has the war in the north changed?" Chang Wencheng shook his head and said, "Now that I have been transferred to the east, I only hear about things in the north occasionally."

"The White Lotus Sect and Beiqiong are in internal strife, and the border town where General Fu is stationed is bearing the brunt."

Ning Qingxi asked for a long time, but only got a few words.

When they wanted to ask again, Fu Anshu came towards them with a bowl of cold drink and a smile on his face.

"You two whispered something behind my back again that I couldn't understand."

She held the cold drink in her hand, scooped up a spoonful, and handed it to Ning Qingxi's mouth. "This fishy and unpleasant milk is made into yogurt. I didn't expect it to be so delicious! Xixi, please try it."

Ning Qingxi ate it very proudly, "You are the first person to taste yogurt. This is something I have developed."

Fu Anshu asked a few questions happily. After getting a positive answer, he ran back to Wang Xiujuan with a smile on his face and said:
"Thank you, Grandma Wang!"

Wang Xiujuan looked at her lively appearance, smiled and told the children, then turned and left.

The window was half open, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone neatly on the desk.

After seeing the two off, Ning Qingxi came to Ning Changrong's study.

"That's why An Shu is in such a bad mood because he is worried about his father's safety."

"If something happens to her father again, then she will only have the Queen Empress as her only relative in this world."

Ning Qingxi sighed after listening to Ning Changrong's explanation of the causes and consequences.

Fu Anshu followed her and Chang Wencheng in the afternoon, so that she didn't even have a chance to ask Chang Wencheng privately. After sending the two away, she went to the study to ask Ning Changrong.

Just like her wild guess, her father not only knew, but also knew much more.

Inside Beiqiong and the White Lotus Sect, many landmines were planted by those sent by Ning Changrong, and they had been detonated after more than a year.

Now the two sides in the north are fighting each other.

Last winter, in order to survive the cold winter, the Beiqiong people even stopped fighting and went to the south to plunder. However, their early preparations were too good. The Beiqiong people did not get any benefit. Instead, they were driven away by the soldiers and horses led by Wang Hanting. , many people died as a result.

Since they couldn't get any benefits from Da'an, they didn't give up and turned to attack their ally, the White Lotus Sect.

Burning, killing and looting in the territory belonging to the White Lotus Sect.

There was not much food in the White Lotus Sect to begin with, and those people sent by Ning Changrong defrauded a lot of food and transported it continuously to the south.

The interior has long been empty, and the people at the bottom are eating each other.

When they couldn't get any food, they kidnapped the people, and by the way, they also robbed and killed many wealthy people of the White Lotus Sect.

The already fragile alliance between the two parties has completely broken down.

After being robbed, the White Lotus Sect did not swallow its anger, and the glass Taoist statues were sold to high-level people.

The current food shortage is also caused by these high-level officials. They don't care about the life and death of ordinary people, but they need to rely on those soldiers.

Originally, there was less and less food, Da'an would not sell it to them, and the local fields were almost destroyed.

It happened to take advantage of this robbery to transfer the conflict and fight directly with the Beiqiong people.

As a border town of Da'an, it is naturally impossible to escape.

They will also be involved in the war between the two parties from time to time.

However, the two parties gained nothing from the fighting. On the contrary, more and more people died.

After thinking that the conflict was almost transferred, they wanted to join forces to attack Da'an again, and the border town where Fu Anshu's father, General Fu, was stationed was the first fortress.
