When Song Xiwei was sent away by Weng, Aoqian looked displeased.
Weng hurriedly explained to Aoqian, "Your Majesty, please calm down. I sent Envoy Song away because I had something to say to you alone."
“I have absolute trust in him, there’s no need to hide it from him!” Aoqian was very dissatisfied with Weng’s behavior.
Weng paused for a moment, "Is that so? Then, how about I have someone invite Envoy Song over? Actually, I specially organized this Huailin Festival to bring you and Envoy Song together. You like him, don't you? Perfect, if you two are mutually in love, I can invite him over so we can discuss it together."
"Wait!" Aoqian called out to Weng, "You actually have a brain!"
Aoqian's words made Weng's smile deepen. "Your Majesty flatters me. I am not very good at other things, but I am very good at romance. Having seen so much, I can tell at a glance that Your Majesty admires Envoy Song. However, I have seen that two years have passed and Your Majesty and Envoy Song have not made any progress. I just wanted to help Your Majesty. If I have taken the liberty and displeased Your Majesty, I am willing to accept the punishment."
Ao Qian said, "If there is any progress this time, I will remember your contribution!"
Wan hurriedly added, "Your Majesty, rest assured, I will arrange everything properly!"
At this moment, Song Xiwei was completely unaware that she had already been thoroughly arranged for her.
She was being led to change clothes by several demon servants.
This is the formal attire for the Huailin Festival.
Everyone was dressed in the same color clothes and wore straw hats, so they couldn't see each other's identities and were paired up one-on-one entirely by feeling.
If you successfully pair up, you will receive a special gift for the Huailin Festival.
I heard that the gifts are only available in Huailin and are personally presented by Weng.
Song Xi listened, and found it somewhat interesting.
Thinking that since we were already here, we might as well do as the locals do and have some fun to broaden our horizons.
She changed into a light blue long gown for the Huailin Festival, wore a matching bamboo hat, and had a long veil covering her face, which added a sense of mystery to her surroundings.
She didn't know if Aoqian had also changed into this outfit like her.
But, Aoqian probably won't join this one-on-one pairing, right?
After all, those who joined were all single men and women who didn't have a sweetheart yet.
Although Aoqian hasn't settled down yet, he does have someone he likes.
Song Xiwei felt that she had gone a bit astray.
It's just about going with the flow and joining in the fun, why think so much?
Besides, she can do her own thing. Aoqian is probably discussing some confidential matters with Weng right now. She can just do her own thing.
Song Xiwei walked along the long street.
Unbeknownst to her, not far away, Weng and Aoqian had already locked onto her.
"As long as Your Majesty has this, no matter how many people around him are wearing the same clothes as him, you will be able to find him immediately. I have also made some changes to his clothes, just like I have to yours, so that he cannot avoid Your Majesty. This way, there will be absolutely no surprises in your pairing."
Weng has everything under control; all that's left is for Ao to put it into practice.
"Are you helping me cheat?" Ao Qian frowned.
"Your Majesty, I know you are a righteous gentleman and would disdain using such methods against Song Zun. But these are extraordinary times, and the outside world is in such chaos. Song Zun could make him leave Chidu at any time. If that happens, how many more two-year periods will you have to slowly cultivate your feelings for him? Aren't you worried?"
Weng's words hit the nail on the head regarding Aoqian's biggest worry.
"Besides what you just said, is there anything else you're hiding?" Aoqian felt that Weng had only told half the story.
Weng shook her head and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I know what I'm doing!"
Aoqian was too lazy to pursue the matter further; Weng was indeed helping him.
Regardless of the outcome today, he wanted to give it a try.
Could this Locust Blossom Festival allow him and Song Xiwei to break free from previous conventions and potentially take their relationship to the next level?
