Fortunate to know Qing peach noodles

Chapter 235
The person guarding the palace gate didn't dare to stop her, and when she left the palace, she hurried to report to Concubine Ming.

But when the news reached Concubine Ming, Jingyi's carriage had already left the gate of the triple palace and was outside the palace.

Passing through a straight street with few people, the flames of the lantern festival in front were dimly lit, covering half of the night with a hazy glimmer.

The further you go, the more you can hear the bustling noise.

Jingyi got off the carriage on the street, looked up, and saw that the ten-mile long street was lit like daylight, vaguely illuminating her desolate eyes.

It turned out that Wei Qing was going to see this kind of lantern festival.The lantern festivals in the palace are exquisite, and Jingyi has long been used to them, but this is the first time she has seen this folk lantern festival.

She was walking on the street, and the disguised guards and palace servants hugged her back and forth to avoid being squeezed by the passing pedestrians.

Jingyi also dressed up as a daughter of an ordinary family, and was less likely to be in danger when she was in a crowded place.

The servants around me found a restaurant with the best location, where you can have a panoramic view of the lantern night scene, and there will be a lion dance performance on the street after a while, and you can enjoy watching it from a high place, which is better than being crowded on the street many.

The restaurant was already overcrowded, and the servant spent a lot of money to reserve a private room by the window facing the street.

Jingyi entered the private room and sat down, leaning against the window and looking outside, the waiter came in and asked her what to eat, she gave the waiter a cold look, and said, "Serve the wine."

The maid at the side went crazy, and whispered: "How can the princess drink alcohol! The princess should hurry back to the palace with the slaves!"

But tonight, Jingyi was so depressed that she just wanted to drink.

Jingyi knew that her temper might be difficult to control. During this period of time, the person who thought about it the most was Wei Qing, even more than when thinking about the chief assistant. What else is there to be dissatisfied with Wei Qing?
As a result, Wei Qing actually took advantage of her unpreparedness, left her in the palace, and sneaked out to watch the lantern festival by himself.That awkward point finally broke out, and she wanted to see what there was to see in this lantern.

As everyone knows, at this time the palace is in chaos because of Jingyi sneaking out of the palace.

Su Yu has been busy making preparations for the emperor's personal guards recently, and only concentrated on processing the accumulated official documents and letters in the study tonight.

He had just finished writing the letter, slowly packed the envelope, and let the courier take it away overnight. At this time, the attendant hurried into the study and said, "My lord, Princess Jingyi has disappeared, and she said she left the palace privately. The imperial concubine Ming Ask Chief Assistant to help you find the princess."

Su Yudao: "The censor who patrols the city is now in the hands of the Metropolitan Governor. Does the Metropolitan Governor know that he will mobilize the soldiers and horses of the five cities to find people in the whole city?"

The entourage asked: "Does your lord want to go out and look for it?"

"I'm going." Su Yu got up, brushed the corner of her clothes, walked out of the study, stood at the door of the study, and said, "Princess Jingyi is dignified and self-restraining, is she the one who sneaks out of the palace to watch the lantern festival?" ?”

The entourage followed him out of the mansion, and said: "My subordinate asked the palace. It seems that Princess Jingyi went to the imperial hospital and found that Miss Wei Er was not there, so she decided to leave the palace. If the concubine Ming knew this, she might Take your anger out on Second Miss."

Su Yu glanced at him, and the entourage said again: "However, my subordinates have ordered people to seal the mouths of those people, and those who know the details have followed the princess out of the palace. The imperial concubine Ming will not know for the time being."

Su met the carriage, and the carriage drove out of the street leisurely.After walking for a while, there was gradually commotion in front, and the lights were bright. Su Yu raised the curtain and looked out, and said, "Will she come out to see the lanterns tonight?"

The entourage driving the car said: "My lord, did you ask the second lady? The second lady is neither in the imperial hospital nor back to the Weifu, she must be on the street."

***
The Lantern Festival was really lively tonight. When we got to the long street, there were so many people walking on the street, all kinds of lanterns hung on both sides, illuminating the street brightly.

Wei Qing and Yi Lan got out of the carriage and were immediately submerged in the crowd.

Those who appreciate lanterns, guess lantern riddles, and sell gadgets on the street are overwhelmed.

With pocket money in her pocket, Yilan went to buy a bunch of snacks and came back after a while.Wei Qing is not a greedy person, he eats a few times from time to time, and his stomach is full.

Compared with Yilan's running around in the street, Wei Qing seemed a little aimless.She came here tonight completely indulging Yilan, and Yilan would join in wherever there was excitement.

Yilan turned her head and found Jinyiwei patrolling, she quickly pointed and said, "Second miss, look, there is Jinyiwei."

Before Wei Qing could react, Yi Lan pulled her towards Jin Yiwei.But there were so many people on the street that no one dared to block Jin Yiwei's way, but it was difficult for Yilan and Wei Qing to keep up with them.

Soon the line of sight was blocked by the crowd, and I could no longer see it.

Wei Qing was very sorry to see Yilan, and said: "I will see Jin Yiwei in the palace tomorrow, you can ask them for an autograph."

Yi Lan said: "No, this servant thinks that if you follow them, you might be able to find the Great Governor. Doesn't the Second Miss very much want to see the Great Governor?"

Wei Qing: "...When did I say I wanted to see him?"

"Then you even took a long detour to the Wei Factory..."

At this time, with the cheers from the crowd, the conversation between the two was suddenly drowned out.

Wei Qing and Yi Lan were squeezed to both sides of the street, seeing that the wide street was vacated, someone shouted loudly: "The lion dance is coming!"

The two followed the sound and saw a beautiful lion leaping into everyone's sight accompanied by the sound of gongs and drums.There are seven or eight people supporting the lion, and there are two front and back ends, jumping up and down, very vivid.

Everyone applauded, cheered and laughed.

There are also children running into the middle of the street, shuttling back and forth between the strong lion legs.

This lion dance performance is a lion playing with pearls.

The bead that the two lions are vying for is a hydrangea. Whoever gets the hydrangea by chance means that he will be favored by the God of Flowers, and he will be the first tonight.

The girls were all staring at the hydrangea and tossing it back and forth between the two lion dancers.

Jing Yi sat in the restaurant room and clearly saw the lion dance coming out of the street, and then dancing into the crowd.The maids in the room all clenched their fists and watched with great interest.

How can I see this in the palace, today this street really attracts enough eyeballs.

Jingyi leaned against the window with her chin propped up, the wine in the glass changed from one to another unconsciously.

The lion dancer went to a place with the most people nearby and stayed there for a long time.Two lions competed to snatch the hydrangea, causing the crowd to applaud.

The last male lion leaped upwards, somersaulted in the air, then raised its head and grabbed the hydrangea ball in one mouthful, and landed firmly and flatly, causing bursts of applause.

Then countless pairs of eyes looked at it. The male lion leaned his head to the side of the street, blinked his eyes nimbly, probed his head, and then leaned over and gave the hydrangea in his mouth to a girl on the side of the street.

All eyes were focused, Wei Qing did not expect that the lion dancer would give her a hydrangea.
