Chapter 550 Midsummer Lantern Festival

During the meal, Mo Zhiyuan asked curiously, "Grandmother, when my second uncle and I rode our horses to the General's Mansion this morning, we saw so many beautiful lanterns on the way. They were so pretty! What are those lanterns for?"

Yunmu smiled and explained, "I almost forgot about our Sumeru Dynasty's Midsummer Lantern Festival if you hadn't mentioned it. Tonight, your second uncle can take you to see the beautiful lanterns."

Mo Zhiyuan's eyes lit up, and she cheered, "That's great, thank you, Grandmother!"

After dinner, Mo Zhiyuan eagerly awaited the arrival of night.

Finally, night fell, and Yun Ziyu found a carriage and took Mo Zhiyuan and Mo Junye to see the lanterns.

Before stepping out the door and getting into the carriage, Mo Zhiyuan turned back and ran to Yunmu's side, tilting her head and asking in a clear voice, "Grandma, will you come with us to see the lanterns? The lanterns on the street are so beautiful. I want to go see the lanterns with Grandma."

Yunmu smiled and said, "Grandma is old and can't walk anymore, so I won't go to join the crowd. Grandma doesn't like crowded places. You all have a good time, but you must listen to your second uncle and stay close to him. Don't run around on your own, okay?"

Yunmu politely declined Mo Zhiyuan's invitation, and then gave the two children some words of advice with some concern.

Mo Zhiyuan nodded, "Grandma, don't worry, I definitely won't run away. If I run away, bad people will catch me, and I won't be able to see you again. So I will definitely hold my second uncle's hand."

Yunmu nodded with satisfaction. "Our Zhiyuan is the best. Alright, let's set off. It's getting late. Now is the perfect time to go see the lanterns. Be sure to come back soon."

"Yes, Grandma, I know. Grandma, wait for me. I will definitely bring you the most beautiful lantern." After saying that, Mo Zhiyuan turned around and grabbed Yun Ziyu's hand tightly.

"Second Uncle, you must hold my hand tightly, or I won't be responsible if we get lost." Mo Zhiyuan looked up at Yun Ziyu earnestly.

Yun Ziyu laughed and said, "Shouldn't that be something Second Uncle should say? Even if Second Uncle gets lost, I can still find my way home. Can you?"

Mo Zhiyuan snorted, "Hmph, anyway, if I get lost, it's all my second uncle's fault for not watching me properly, not my fault. I have short legs and can't run far."

Yun Ziyu sighed helplessly, "Alright, alright, your second uncle will definitely keep a close eye on you and won't let you get lost."

Mo Zhiyuan continued to emphasize, "Also, keep a close eye on your brother."

Yun Ziyu couldn't help but reach out and tap Mo Zhiyuan's forehead. "You worry the most. Worrying too much will make you less lovable."

Mo Zhiyuan exclaimed in surprise, "Ah, I'm clearly the cutest, brother, will I become uncute?"

Mo Junye took his sister's hand and walked towards the carriage, comforting her as he said, "No, you are the most adorable princess of the Xumi Dynasty."

Yun Ziyu chuckled to herself.

The Sumeru Dynasty only has one princess now. Does it matter if she's the cutest or not?

However, he didn't say it out loud because he was afraid that Mo Zhiyuan would ask him more questions.

The three of them headed straight for the most bustling area in the city.

The streets were lined with all kinds of exquisite lanterns, which were dazzling with light.

Mo Zhiyuan was overwhelmed by the sights. "Wow, brother, brother, look! That lamp is so beautiful, and it feels so familiar!"

Upon hearing Mo Zhiyuan's words, the stall owner quickly explained with a smile, "This young lady has excellent taste. This lamp is a token of love between our Emperor and Empress."

Mo Zhiyuan tilted her head and asked in confusion, "A token of love?"

Was it a token of love between Father and Mother?

"That's right, it's a token of love. This lantern was personally made by the Emperor to please the Empress. It has a very special meaning. Of course, we only copied the design of this lantern. The real lantern should be in the palace storeroom. Such a precious thing must be well preserved."

The stall owner began to explain the origin of the lanterns in detail, his tone even tinged with pride.

He glanced at Yun Ziyu out of the corner of his eye, then suddenly his eyes lit up and he said, “I see that you are a handsome and elegant young master. I wonder if you have someone you love? Why don’t you buy this lantern and give it to your sweetheart? If she is happy, maybe this will lead to a relationship.”

The stall owner became more and more excited as he spoke.

Yun Ziyu frowned. "You, if you're going to sell lanterns, just sell lanterns properly. Why are you trying to steal the matchmaker's business? Aren't you afraid the matchmakers in the capital will smash your stall? No, no, come on, your uncle will take you to the front to see some rabbit lanterns. The little girl will definitely like them."

After Yun Ziyu finished speaking, she quickly left the stall with one child in each hand.

The stall owner snorted, "Hey, I kindly tried to play matchmaker for him, but he's not a good person at all. Come on, sir, don't miss out! This is a token of love, only one available. First come, first served. Don't miss it, it only happens once a year."

After complaining, the stall owner started hawking his wares.

Suddenly, a commotion arose from the crowd.

It turned out that someone had suddenly fallen ill and fainted.

Those around were in a panic but didn't know what to do.

The crowd was so dense that it was impossible to move forward. Yun Ziyu couldn't squeeze to the front for a while. When she heard someone shouting for help, she rushed over immediately.

She had two children tucked under her arms.

Mo Zhiyuan protested, "Second Uncle, I want to get down and walk by myself."

Yun Ziyu replied without lowering her head, "Be good, saving lives is the priority, just bear with it for now."

When Yun Ziyu squeezed to the front, she saw an old man lying on the ground, and a girl squatting next to him, seemingly treating him.

Yun Ziyu seemed to be deep in thought; that back view seemed somewhat familiar.
