265 Lantern
Meimei saw the queen move slightly on the couch, and immediately several maids stepped forward to serve her. She simply got up, and saw Yu'er brought a maid over, brought warm water and hot tea, and served her to cleanse her face, After rinsing, another court lady took a mirror to adjust her clothes and make-up. After a while, a father-in-law went outside to report:
"Report to the emperor: Empress Empress is up!"

"Well, is there another one?"

"Mrs. Weiyuanhou is also up and is dressing up..."

"The queen and Mrs. Weiyuanhou, please come out. I and Weiyuanhou have been waiting for them for a long time! The children are all outside. After dinner, we will go to the garden to enjoy the lanterns, guess lantern riddles, and then come out. Climb to the Shenghua Tower and enjoy the lights all over the city, I will take the Queen and Prince with me to have fun with all the people!"

After coming out of Kunning Palace, Meimei and Xu Junying were together without being separated again. After walking out of the imperial garden, they saw King Qi, Princess Qi and Princess Sude surrounded by the Queen Mother waiting there. , and then the officials saw the empress and the empress dowager, the emperor smiled and waved:

"It is said that today the monarch, ministers and people are having fun together, so everyone does not need to be formal, let's have fun together!"

Amidst the laughter of the ministers and foreign wives, Xu Junying and Meimei greeted King Qi and Princess Qi. King Qi didn't speak or laugh, and didn't look at Xu Junying, but raised his hand to touch the constant in his arms. Heng Er also taught some etiquette for Er'er's little pink face when she entered the palace. When she knew that she had to greet people, she opened her mouth and called, "My lord!"

Lin Runan chuckled and teased him: "Heng'er, what about me? What's the name?"

Heng'er said, "Auntie..."

"Stop!" King Qi pinched Heng'er's face and turned to look at him: "I will call her mother from now on, do you understand? I am father!"

"His Royal Highness King Qi! Don't mess up my son!" Meimei glared at King Qi.

King Qi laughed: "Go and ask Master Xu——I have three conditions, and this is the first one!"

He waved his hand at Heng'er: "My dear son, I've found someone, I'll give you a lantern to play with later!"

After speaking, he raised his head and headed towards the Queen Mother, halfway there, he found that Lin Runan hadn't followed, and said coldly:
"Come here soon?"

Lin Runan rolled her eyes at him, and Meimei asked worriedly, "Are you still beating?"

"I don't hit when I'm awake, but sometimes I hit when I'm dreaming!"

Lin Runan seized the time to talk to Meimei, and didn't care about Xu Junying anymore, her eyes were slightly red: "It's already like this, I don't care much, just follow what you said..."

King Qi refused to let Lin Runan talk to Meimei, turned around and walked back, Lin Runan flicked his sleeves to greet him: "Here we come, my lord, let's go!"

Meimei watched in rapt attention as the two of them pretended to be a loving couple and left together under Lin Runan's efforts. Xu Junying stretched out her hand unhappily and turned her face back:
"I said don't get entangled with them anymore, don't give people crazy ideas!"

"I didn't!" Meimei turned to settle accounts with him: "Did you really give Heng Er his son?"

"I didn't agree! I've asked you so much, he's decided on it himself. If Meimei really wants it, what should he do? Those three conditions..."

Meimei thought for a while: "That's it! He recognizes him, and we don't say whether to give or not. The son is ours, and he is raised in our house. He will understand who will be loved and who will be separated when he grows up. Everyone They all pretended to be confused, and it was a fool's account, anyway, no one loses!"

Xu Junying smiled: "Okay, listen to you!"

The family, accompanied by the emperor, queen, princess, prince, and concubines, went to the garden with the officials and wives to enjoy lanterns and guess riddles. The lanterns in the palace are really exquisite, and each lantern is amazingly beautiful. They are still figures, they are all made lifelike, they are hung bright and colorful, and when they are lit up, the surroundings are illuminated as bright as day, and some of them are still spinning continuously, Meimei can't see it all, one of them is up and down The leisurely jumping Jade Rabbit lantern attracted Heng'er's attention, and he insisted on moving it home. Xu Junying said, "Let's move home, and this place will be empty. What are others looking at?" Heng'er scratched his head and remained silent. They were not allowed to leave, but as a result, the whole family guarded the rabbit lamp, and the two adults accompanied the child. After seeing enough, the emperor turned around and saw it, and sent someone to urge him to leave.

Meimei has enjoyed the modern Lantern Festival. Compared with the exquisite antique lanterns in front of me, which can be called real handicrafts, those crudely made lanterns in factories and workshops, put together in pieces, and only lighted up with thermal power control, show the effect. It really can't be the same day, not to mention Henger, even she wants to take one home and put it in the yard, it is so beautiful!

Meimei is pretty good at guessing riddles, at least better than Xu Junying. Every time she guesses one, she can get an exquisite item made in the palace as a reward. In this place, if you guess the riddle on the lamp, you can lift the lamp away. I was excited for a long time, but my brain got hot, and I couldn’t think of the answer. The riddles are written in ancient poetry, with profound and difficult meanings I understand, she didn’t choose the Chinese department when she was in college, but she took a Chinese class for a certain purpose for a while. At that time, the professor taught classical Chinese, and it was all due to that period of forced learning. Traditional Chinese characters could not be read. People who understand well can even guess and learn to read account books and some simpler books in this world.Guessing the riddles is really too difficult at this moment, the simple ones are fine, but it is so difficult to want a palace lantern!

Said to Heng'er: "Just take a look, let's go!"

Unexpectedly, when Heng Er saw someone taking away the bright and beautiful lanterns, she was extremely envious, and unwilling to leave, she pointed at those few lanterns and moaned.

Meimei was gone, Xu Junying patted Heng'er's head, and said with a smile: "I can't buy this lamp with silver, why don't you just leave the palace and pick one on the street?"

Meimei turned her head to look around the crowd, Xu Junying asked, "What are you looking at?"

"Find out where my brother is, tell him to come over and get Heng Er a lamp!"

Xu Junying dragged her closer: "You can see her face! You want to make people misunderstand you?"

"Go! I'm not that boring!"

Xu Junying smiled and leaned closer to her ear: "Let's make a serious guess? Husband and wife are of the same heart, maybe we can guess right, so that Heng'er will be happy!"

"All right!"

The two calmed down, Meimei asked Heng'er to choose one, and the little guy still chose the rabbit lamp. Meimei took a look and gasped: I can't read the traditional characters well, but the riddle on the rabbit lamp is Written in wild cursive, if you read it horizontally or vertically, you can’t understand the general idea, so you have to ask Xu Junying to read the riddle, and you have to read it twice. Xu Junying suddenly thought of this question, knowing that Meimei has many characters to recognize. Not allowed, and asked her with a smile: "Did you only understand half of the letter I wrote to you a while ago?"

Meimei glanced at him twice, and glared at him: "Underestimate people! As long as the handwriting is well written and the handwriting is clear and correct, I can always read it all. Your handwriting looks like a knife carving, who wouldn't read it? Just on this lantern, I don't know. I have invited everyone to inscribe what kind of calligraphy, I can't guess no matter what!"

Seeing Meimei's half embarrassed and uncomfortable expression, Xu Junying really wanted to reach out and hug her as a way of comforting her. Seeing the emperor and queen standing there with a large group of people guessing lantern riddles, she just squeezed her cheeks. hand, said softly:
"It's okay! I'll read a few more for you. Let's guess slowly. It's up to you to play. It doesn't matter if you don't get it right. I'll ask him to hold a lamp for Heng'er when I meet Zhuang Scholar!"

Meimei smiled and nodded, and the two of them lingered in front of the row of lanterns like shadows. Xu Junying was still holding Heng'er in his hand. After relaxing, Meimei's mind became better again. After analyzing it in one sentence, he unexpectedly guessed the answer at the same time. Heng Er finally took away the rabbit lamp that Heng Er loved. He was so happy that he couldn't stop jumping and laughing, which attracted the little prince who was hugging the palace maid over there to look over. Seeing Heng'er's excitement, she stared straight at her and yelled endlessly.

The emperor was not convinced. He saw that Xu Junying and his wife insisted on guessing the lantern riddle. He really got them a lamp for Henger. The emperor also asked the queen to guess together. The princesses each earn a lantern. Isn’t it very easy for royal children to want lanterns?But for the sake of fairness, the emperor wants to have fun with the people and set rules, so he has to make a show, but after a while, let his family stick to it.Seeing that Xu Junying and his wife had guessed the lantern for their son at this time, he was jealous of them and wanted to get the lantern for the prince by his ability.

After the emperor had spoken, everyone cheered and waited and watched. The empress was in front, followed by a group of more than a dozen concubines, including Concubine Xian, Concubine Li, and Concubine Zhen.In addition to Xiaohuang's ahh, the two little princesses were also shouting:
"Father, I want the eagle lamp!"

"Queen, I want a lamb lamp!"

"Don't want the eagle lamp, but the lotus lamp that can turn!"

The emperor's head was getting bigger, he turned around and frowned at the group of Yingying and Yanyan near him, and then looked sideways at Xu Junying's family of three, helping each other and smiling, Mimi quietly admiring the rabbit lamp, with a leisurely and comfortable attitude The sweetness and warmth of Xu Junying, Xu Junying still looked at them from time to time, completely watching the lively posture, the emperor hated his teeth itching: there is nothing busy during this time, Xu Junying, you are too comfortable and comfortable. Bar?
The queen has read all the answers to the riddles. She is a smart woman, and she can remember all the poems and books she read, let alone hundreds of riddles?At this time, in order to pretend to be decent, I took a long time on purpose to guess one, and got the lotus lantern that the princess wanted. The emperor was overjoyed, hugged the princess, and took her hand to receive the lantern:
"Good girl, take it! Are you satisfied? Thank you, Queen Mother!"

Then he guessed the eagle lamp, the emperor smiled from ear to ear, and stepped forward to help the empress on the shoulder: "My empress is so smart!"

The last guess was the buffalo lamp that the prince pointed at casually, and the queen revealed: "This mystery, from the view of my concubine, is related to this lamp!"

The emperor said: "It's a cow!"

The eunuch who supervised the lantern riddles bowed and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! You guessed it right!"

The emperor secretly said: Congratulations!I don't want a dragon lantern hanging high, but my prince actually wants a cow!

It was quite a joy to see the prince get the lantern for a while. He was just happy when he saw King Qi standing next to him with half a smile on his face. Thinking of his raising cows when he was a child, he felt annoyed and walked away.
