"So, will all the soldiers who came from Huaxian County get a day off today?" Nan Qianyue asked, looking at the lantern.
Bai Shu said, "Yes, soldiers from Huaxian can go home, and other soldiers far from home will also celebrate in the barracks."
As the moon nodded in agreement, a lantern was slipped into his hand.
She stared blankly at the woman in red, "Why did you buy me a lantern?"
The woman in red didn't mince words and said directly, "Miss Nan can wait for the Prince at the door tonight with this lamp."
Just as Nanqian was about to refuse, he suddenly remembered something, paused for a moment, and nodded, "Alright."
The woman in red and the woman in white both looked surprised. The girl in the south had agreed so readily?
“But I don’t like rabbit lanterns. Here, take this one, I’ll pick another one.” Nan Qianyue stuffed the lantern back into the red-clothed woman’s hand.
She stood in front of the lantern stall, searching carefully, and finally chose a wolfhound lantern. "I'll take this one. How much, boss?"
The stall owner had a kind face. "No money needed, no money needed. I suppose Miss Nan is here to welcome the Prince. Consider this my way of sending blessings to the Prince through Miss Nan."
Nanqianyue smiled and said, "I can't accept this, thank you so much."
...Night fell.
Nanqianyue and Hongyi each stood at the gate of the mansion, carrying lanterns.
The woman in red glanced repeatedly at the wolfhound lantern in Nan Qianyue's hand, her expression somewhat strange.
"What's wrong?" Nan Qianyue held up the lantern in her hand. "You and Bai Shu are looking at this lantern with such strange expressions. Isn't this lantern pretty? It looks like a big wolfhound, so cool!"
The woman in red smiled. "...Beautiful."
Anyway, if it's in Miss Nan's hands, the prince won't be dissatisfied; he'll only be happy.
Perhaps there was also a celebration in the military camp, because Qin Yi and Qingyi did not return for a long time.
As the moon yawned, it sat on the stone steps, resting its chin on its hand and waiting silently.
As I waited, my eyelids fluttered open and closed, finally settling shut for a long time.
Seeing this, the woman in red slipped away quietly.
In a hazy state, I heard the sound of horses' hooves.
Thinking that the southward migration was a dream, Yue did not intend to wake up.
Until she felt a rough touch on her cheek, like fingertips with calluses rubbing against her cheek.
Nanqianyue opened her eyes uncomfortably, and Qin Yi's face gradually became clearer from blurry.
"You're back." Nan Qianyue stood up, still feeling dizzy, and handed the lantern to Qin Yi. "Here, the people's blessings for you."
Qin Yi glanced at the lantern, a strange light flashing across his pupils.
