The concubine is so charming

Chapter 53

The Da'an Dynasty was powerful, and several affiliated congresses came to worship on the day of the Lantern Festival, and there was no curfew these days, so it was extremely lively.

There was also a holiday in the Imperial College, and the emperor was in a good mood, and even specially ordered the children of the clan who had entered the palace to be allowed out of the palace to play.

On the day of the Lantern Festival, Mu Qingchen came to Lan Cuixuan early. After more than ten days of recuperation, although his arm was still unable to move, the pain was no longer unbearable. Seeing Su Yao at this time, his expression was extraordinarily elated :

"Sister, we can go out of the palace today, let's go out and have a look."

Su Yao was leaning on the soft couch next to the bed, feeling lazy, as if he had no energy: "I won't go, you are injured, so don't join in the fun."

Those people didn't dare to do anything to Mu Qingchen in the palace, but outside the palace, there were many people watching, taking advantage of the crowds to injure him and destroy his entire arm, it was simply a piece of cake.

She still wants him to fight for the throne, but she can't let him cripple herself.

Mu Qingchen nodded obediently, and walked slowly to Su Yao's side: "Sister, do you feel unwell, why do you look so sleepy?"

After Yufu served the tea, she retreated to guard outside the palace gate, leaving space for the siblings.

Su Yao stood up and moved around, then opened the window and looked at the dark green bamboos in the yard: "Do you know the origin of the Lantern Festival?"

"Lantern Festival? Watching lanterns and eating Lantern Festival... just celebrate the new year, I don't know the specific origin." Mu Qingchen walked carefully to Su Yao's side, and saw her smiling at the corner of her lips looking out of the window, but she couldn't understand the smile The slightest hint of warmth.

"The fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the fifteenth day of the seventh month, and the fifteenth day of October correspond to the three festivals of Shangyuan, Zhongyuan and Xiayuan respectively, and these three festivals correspond to the officials of heaven, earth and water respectively. , It is said that the heavenly official blesses, the earthly official forgives sins, and the water official relieves misfortune, which is the so-called three elements matching the three palaces. Today is the day when the heavenly official blesses..."

"Shouldn't the heavenly official's blessing be happy? But my sister seems unhappy..." Mu Qingchen was worried, and walked around Su Yao at a loss, feeling that she was clumsy and unable to say anything. Nice to comfort her.

"I told you that I am Su Yao, not Mu Ninghua."

"...Yes." Mu Qingchen's eyes trembled suddenly thinking of the way things were done in the Rong Palace, "Could it be... Could it be that your relatives..."

Su Yao didn't answer, but talked about the past in a deep voice.

"Daddy said, when the Lantern Festival comes, I will make a lantern for my younger brother and me. My lantern will be decorated with the Jade Rabbit in Chang'e, and my younger brother's will be decorated with gold ingots. Majestic, I wanted my father to tie a big tiger for him, but my father refused to agree. Later, my mother told me that my father only knows how to tie rabbits and ingot lanterns..."

There was always a smile on the corner of Su Yao's lips, but it made Mu Qingchen feel sad. She used to have a father, a mother, and a younger brother, and she heard that the family was very happy, but now she has nothing?
"Sister, we will definitely take revenge! We must make the Huirong Palace pay for it with blood!"

Su Yao looked at the gloomy sky outside, the smile on his lips deepened, but his eyes became colder, and he murmured softly: "Yes, I will definitely help them avenge."

After the two of them had lunch, Su Yao sat behind the table and copied the scriptures of filial piety, but Mu Qingchen was a little absent-minded, half leaning on the table and looking up at Su Yao from time to time, as if hesitating to speak.

I don't know how many times I felt Mu Qingchen's gaze, Su Yao mentioned the last stroke, raised her eyes and looked over: "Can you see flowers growing on my face?"

Mu Qingchen's face turned red, and she didn't know what to think, so she said directly: "Sister, you are prettier than Hua."

"I found that you are not only obedient now, but also learned to talk sweetly, and you will definitely be able to find a beautiful wife in the future." Su Yao put down the pen, dried the ink that had been copied and arranged it.

She doesn't like to dwell on the past, because those things can't be changed, what can be done now is to make the present not be full of regret like the past.

"I don't want a daughter-in-law..." Mu Qingchen muttered, seeing Su Yao get up to organize things, she hurried forward to help.

Yufu walked in holding two small jars: "Miss, this is the wine you want, have you really decided?"

"En." Su Yao put the wine in the food box, then turned to look at Mu Qingchen, "Go to the side hall and wait for me for a while, I want to get dressed."

"it is good."

Su Yao took a simple bath, then changed into the ivory-white clothes she had made in the past two days, and sat in front of the dressing table to gently paint her eyebrows and eyes.

Yufu was worried: "Miss, I will go with you later, I don't know you well in this palace, in case someone bumps into you..."

"Didn't you also say that there has never been anyone in the Leng Palace? I will come back as soon as I go, and nothing will happen."

"The lady must be careful."

Those clan princes and ladies are all out of the palace. After the emperor has entertained the envoys from various countries, he will hold a family banquet. The queen mother and concubines will also attend. No one will go to the remote cold palace. As long as the lady is careful, it should not something happened.

"it is good."

As dusk fell, the night sky was overcast with clouds, and the moonlight and stars could not be seen at all. Fortunately, because it was the Lantern Festival, palace lanterns were lit everywhere so that the road could be seen clearly.

Yufu sent Su Yao and Mu Qingchen to the path on the far side, then saluted and said, "Miss, just keep walking along this path."

"Well, you go back and be careful on the road."

"Yes."

Su Yao took the food box from Yufu, Mu Qingchen carried the palace lantern, and the siblings headed towards the cold palace.

Close to Leng Palace, the surrounding scenery is already very desolate. If one hadn't seen it with one's own eyes, who would have imagined that there would be such a dilapidated place in the majestic and majestic Da'an Palace.

Su Yao looked at the surrounding scenery and nodded with satisfaction: "This place is nice and quiet."

Mu Qingchen followed her closely, carefully using the palace lantern to help her illuminate the path under her feet.

There is no one to take care of it here, and the vegetation is lush and dense. On today's gloomy night without moonlight and stars, it looks extraordinarily eerie.

Su Yao looked around, and saw a platform next to the small courtyard not far away. The platform was half the height of a person and the size of four tabletops. It should be specially built for some use, but now it is completely abandoned and no one is there anymore. Asked about it.

Su Yao touched the table, then supported the table with both hands, sat up on it, patted on the side, and looked at Mu Qingchen with a smile: "Second brother, how are you coming up? Do you want me to hug you?" you come up?"

Mu Qingchen's cheeks flushed, and she jumped up with one hand, but her strength with one hand was limited, so she couldn't jump up, which made Su Yao laugh out loud.

The night was so thick that even though the two were so close, they couldn't see each other's faces clearly.

Without the focus of eyes, there is no need to worry about other people's detection of emotional changes. The smile on Su Yao's face disappeared, replaced by a chic and wanton that penetrated to the bone.
