Gift?

Why do we have to give gifts to women on a day like the Lantern Festival?

Well, because there have been too many things going on in the court recently, Chu Yi has never thought about it.

As for giving gifts to the empress, he had never thought about it at all.

Are you kidding? As the emperor, could it be that Xiao Ling needs some weird gift?

What is missing is just enough love.

Thinking of this, Chu Yi, who was feeling a little guilty, smiled and his hands softened.

"This afternoon, I made Your Majesty feel my love. Can that be considered a gift?"

Xiao Ling: "...(▼ヘ▼#)"

You Chu thief, you really don't care about this kind of thing at all. Not only do you take advantage of me, but you also dare to make excuses.

Although she was very dissatisfied in her heart, this was not her purpose after all, so she did not care too much.

After hesitating for a while, Xiao Ling stared at Chu Yi's face and punched his chest with her little hand.

"It's alright if you don't have any preparations. I don't lack anything anyway, but..." She hesitated again before speaking seriously:

"It's rare that I have time. I want to leave the palace tonight to see the lively lantern festival in Taining City. You must accompany me no matter what..."

The Lantern Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival are considered the most lively days besides New Year's Eve.

However, on New Year's Eve, Xiao Ling was busy with the palace banquet and did not reveal his identity to the Chu thief, so he had no chance to go out of the palace to play.

In the end, because she was drunk, she could only watch the fireworks with Chu Zei by chance for a while.

But he accidentally scared Chu Yi away, and in the end he could only watch the fading fireworks alone outside the Linde Hall.

Seeing that it was getting dark today, Xiao Ling thought that he had to leave the palace and have some fun no matter what.

After all, as the emperor, she could not leave the palace at will, and in the past few years since she ascended the throne, she had no chance to fully experience the prosperity of Taining City.

As soon as Chu Yi heard this, he instantly understood her true intention.

After thinking about the recent situation, he nodded in agreement after a long time.

"Yes, it happens that I have been married to Your Majesty for so long and have not been with Your Majesty many times. During the Lantern Festival, I am looking forward to spending some time with Your Majesty and going shopping."

Xiao Ling thought that Chu Ze would oppose her leaving the palace for safety reasons, but she didn't expect him to agree without hesitation, which made her a little surprised.

But soon, a very beautiful smile appeared on her face.

"That's great! Let's get up and get ready. It's getting late, so we can go out for a while. Well, I plan to leave the palace in my current state."

Xiao Ling was very happy and couldn't help but lean over and kiss Chu Yi carefully on the corner of her mouth.

Although the two of them were still on the dragon bed, her mind had already flown away, as if she had already imagined the bustling Taining City at night.

I can only say that fortunately, the war that happened a while ago did not break out.

Otherwise, Taining City would not be as prosperous during the Lantern Festival this year.
