Chapter 149 Lantern Festival

February 16th is Lin Qian's wedding day.

Engaged couples cannot meet each other one month before their wedding, which means that after the Lantern Festival, Wei Xiaoran cannot come to the Lin family.

So, starting from the third day of the first lunar month, Wei Xiaoran appeared at the Lin family before dawn and stayed until late at night every day.

The purpose was to meet Lin Qian more often. I wouldn't be able to see her for a month, so I had to relieve the pain of missing her in advance.

Wei Xiaoran was torn at this moment, wanting time to go faster but also wanting it to go slower. However, time would not stop just because of his wishes.

Time quickly arrived at the Lantern Festival. The whole capital was very lively today because there was a Lantern Festival in the evening.

Wei Xiaoran came early to ask Lin Qian out again.

In the past, if Wei Xiaoran came, Lin Wu would definitely say something sarcastic to him, but today, Lin Wu simply ignored Wei Xiaoran.

"What's wrong with Uncle Wu today? Why doesn't he scold me anymore?" Wei Xiaoran was still a little puzzled and asked Lin Qian secretly.

Lin Qian was speechless: "Are you a masochist? My dad ignored you today, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

"That's not the case. I'm just curious and just asking." Wei Xiaoran quickly shook his head and said.

Lin Wu had finally given him a good face, so of course he wouldn't go looking for trouble.

"Today is the Lantern Festival. My father is busy taking my mother out to see the lanterns. He has completely ignored Shuo Shuo and me. How can he see you?" Lin Qian explained.

Wei Xiaoran was speechless. It turned out that instead of being nice to him, she was completely ignoring him.

He was the prime minister of the dynasty, second only to the emperor and above everyone else. Everyone who saw him had to bow to him, but now he was completely ignored by Lin Wu.

"Then let's go too. I heard that the lanterns at today's Lantern Festival are particularly beautiful." Wei Xiaoran said to Lin Qian.

Lin Qian glanced at Lin Shuo who was standing next to her, and Lin Shuo nodded immediately: "I'll go too, and I've already made an appointment with Xiaoyu."

Light rain is the same as rain in other languages.

"Shuo Shuo, how are you getting along with Wen Yu now? Do you want me to propose marriage to you after the New Year?" Lin Qian came close to Lin Shuo and asked.

During this period, Lin Qian rarely saw Lin Shuo. Lin Shuo was very busy and was nowhere to be seen all day.

Lin Shuo was stunned, and then his face turned slightly red.

To be honest, the two siblings have lived together for so long in this life and the past life, but this is the first time that Lin Qian has blushed at Lin Shuo's expense.

"Well, let's wait a little longer. She's still young." Finally, Lin Shuo scratched his head and said only this.

After saying that, Lin Shuo left in a hurry. Lin Qian looked at Lin Shuo's back and smiled mysteriously.

He turned to look at Wei Xiaoran, who was frowning and also looking at Lin Shuo's back.

"What's wrong? What are you looking at?" Lin Qian asked.

Wei Xiaoran stroked his chin and spoke carefully, "Shuo Shuo and the princess are now in love, but will the prince and princess agree to this marriage?"

Prince Ping An and his wife have fought on the battlefield for their entire lives. Would they let their precious daughter, their only child, marry a military commander?

When Lin Qian thought of this, she became a little worried.

"When you come back, tell my father and mother and ask them to test the prince and princess's attitude." Lin Qian said.

Wei Xiaoran nodded, then took Lin Qian's hand and said, "Let's not worry about Shuo Shuo for now. Look at me. Starting tomorrow, I won't be able to come to see you."

"Is it really that important? We haven't seen each other for just a month. Weren't we separated for so many years before that?" Lin Qian said, but did not shake off Wei Xiaoran's hand. She held his hand and walked out together.

Wei Xiaoran said, "That's different. Okay, what lantern do you want today? No matter what it is, I'll win it for you."

"Really? I don't know if this year's Lantern King is good-looking. If it is, I will take the Lantern King."

"good."

The King of Lanterns is selected by all merchants selling lanterns. In addition, there are also various other exquisite lanterns.

As long as you guess all the riddles correctly, you can get the King of Lanterns.

Lin Qian went to see the King of Lanterns with great excitement, but was somewhat disappointed after watching it. How should I put it? The King of Lanterns was very good-looking, but Lin Qian didn't like it.

In the end, Lin Qian only liked a lotus lantern and a goldfish lantern, and Wei Xiaoran got them easily.

The two of them, each holding a lantern, walked on the busy street. After walking for a while, they met Lin Shuo and Ge Wenyu.

Ge Wenyu was holding a majestic tiger lantern, while Lin Shuo was holding a small and cute rabbit lantern.

Lin Qian wanted to laugh when she saw this. Does this mean that Lin Shuo will be completely controlled by Ge Wenyu?

"Sister Qianqian! You and Brother Xiaoran are here too?" Ge Wenyu also saw Lin Qian and ran over happily.

Ge Wenyu is dressed very beautifully today, wearing a bright red cotton-padded jacket and a red cloak with rabbit fur on the outside. She looks so cute.

Lin Qian smiled and whispered to her, and also shared some of the roasted chestnuts in her hand with her.

"Wow! These chestnuts are so delicious. Sister Qianqian, where did you buy them? Can you tell me?" Ge Wenyu tasted one and found it quite good, so he asked.

Lin Qian pointed to the corner ahead and took Ge Wenyu to look for it.

Seeing Lin Qian and Ge Wenyu talking affectionately and then leaving, leaving themselves there, Wei Xiaoran and Lin Shuo looked at each other, shook their heads helplessly, and followed them.

Ge Wenyu and Lin Qian bought another portion of roasted chestnuts and were about to leave when they heard someone calling their names from above.

Looking up, they saw Shen Junqi leaning against the window of the inn behind the roasted chestnut stall, waving at the two of them, and standing behind her was the emperor.

Lin Qian and Ge Wenyu were quite happy to see Chen Junqi. After waving to her, they ran into the inn.

As for Wei Xiaoran, his face immediately turned ugly when he saw the emperor and empress. If you look closely, you can see that the corners of his eyes were twitching.

"Your Majesty! Do you still remember that you were assassinated just now? Why didn't you stay in the palace? Why did you run out again?" As soon as Wei Xiaoran entered the room, he began to scold the emperor.

He was going to get married in a month, but he didn't want to see the emperor pass away at this critical juncture, otherwise he would have to observe a year of national mourning.

The emperor was not angry even after being scolded. He smiled like a peacock with its tail spread out and said, "I can't help it. The queen wants to come out to see the lanterns. I can't bear to refuse her. After all, she is my daughter-in-law and she is favored."

After saying that, he glanced at Chen Junqi with a smile on his face.

Shen Junqi glared at him, then said to Wei Xiaoran, "This time we came out with secret guards and disguised imperial guards. Nothing will happen, don't worry, Prime Minister."

Wei Xiaoran felt relieved when he heard this. It seemed that the emperor was unreliable, but fortunately the queen was sensible.

Lin Qian found it quite interesting to see how the emperor and Shen Junqi interacted with each other. Just as she was about to speak to Shen Junqi, she exclaimed after seeing her face clearly.

There is some blue under Shen Junqi's eyelids and her lips are dark. Although it is a bit uncertain, this is the facial feature of a pregnant woman.
