The flattery made Wan Fei extremely happy.
Suddenly, her face turned serious.
"Your mother outside the palace cannot take care of you. If you encounter danger, you must ensure your own safety first."
Mu Nanyan patted her chest and promised, "Mom, I promise you that I will return safely."
The next day, the Lantern Festival finally arrived.
During the day, after Mu Nanyan prepared everything, she and Mo Linyuan took a carriage to the outside of the palace.
In order to ensure her safety, Emperor Hui specially sent several guards to protect her.
These guards are highly skilled in martial arts and can resolve any danger in time.
As soon as she came out, Mu Nanyan felt that she was free to go anywhere outside the palace and could do whatever she wanted.
When they came out, it was already very late, so they decided to have dinner at the largest restaurant in Kyoto.
Before they entered the restaurant, the guards hid in the dark to protect them.
"Sir, please come in." The waiter came over to greet them when he saw them.
The waiter had a keen eye. Although the two guests were very young, he could tell from the way they were dressed that they were not ordinary people.
They must be some young master and young lady from some family out for fun.
Mo Linyuan held Mu Nanyan in his arms and, led by the waiter, came to the second floor near the window.
It's good to sit by the window so you can see the scenery outside.
As night falls, colorful lights are hung on the doors of every household.
Young people dressed up and went out, people came and went on the streets, all kinds of noise mixed together, making the festive atmosphere even more intense.
After a long time, the waiter brought the dishes one after another.
"Sir, please enjoy your meal." The waiter greeted warmly.
This is indeed the largest restaurant in Kyoto. Mu Nanyan and her friends had just come in and the restaurant was already full.
They ordered several of the restaurant's specialties, including steamed sea bass, vermicelli and abalone with garlic sauce, emerald cabbage and meat rolls, steamed chicken, meatball soup, etc.
Just by listening to the name of the dish, you can tell that it has a good meaning and is very suitable for eating during the Chinese New Year.
Mo Linyuan picked up a piece of fish with a serving chopstick, picked out the fish bones, and put it in Mu Nanyan's bowl.
"Yan'er, taste this fish."
Mu Nanyan picked up the fish and put it into her mouth, chewing slowly.
The fish was tender and tasty, just to her taste.
Just as the two were enjoying their meal, a familiar voice came from next door.
"Xiao Lian, go give them something to eat." Mu Qinglan's clear voice came over.
Just as their dishes were served, a little beggar came up to her and begged her for something to eat.
The little beggar looked about seven or eight years old and was very skinny.
When he looked at Mu Qinglan with pitiful eyes, Mu Qinglan's heart softened a little.
Just as Mu Qinglan was hesitating, the shopkeeper saw the beggar and quickly drove him away.
"Go away, you little beggar, go away quickly and don't block our business here." The waiter said mercilessly.
The little beggar was weak and was pushed to the ground by the waiter.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Xiaolian scolded the waiter loudly.
The waiter licked his face, looked at Mu Qinglan flatteringly and said, "Miss, you don't know that we don't allow beggars in our store."
"This is the restaurant's rule. If you force him to come in, it will be very difficult for me."
Mu Qinglan lowered his eyes and thought for a moment. In the end, he still let the waiter take the decision and drove the little beggar out.
After all, the store was open for business, and she had no choice but to make things difficult for the waiter.
Mu Qinglan had no choice but to pack a meal and ask Xiaolian to deliver it to the beggar.
After receiving the food not far away, the beggar expressed his gratitude to Xiaolian repeatedly.
Xiaolian waved her hand and told the beggar that this was the kindness of their young lady and he should accept it with peace of mind.
This little episode did not affect Mu Nanyan's meal.
She was just a little curious about Mu Qinglan. She had been bullied so badly before, but she was still so kind now. Wasn't she afraid that someone would take advantage of her kindness?
However, she has no right to interfere in other people's affairs.
So, Mu Nanyan withdrew her gaze and continued eating.
"I'm so full." Mu Nanyan rubbed her round belly.
She ate some softer food, which tasted okay, but she accidentally overeats.
The beauty of life lies in experiencing all kinds of delicious food. This time, she ate delicious food and she was very satisfied.
Mo Linyuan took a casual glance and saw her cute movements, which made his heart soften.
"As long as Yan'er likes it." Mo Linyuan replied.
Since we are out for fun, all the expenses will be paid by him.
Because she ate too much, Mu Nanyan decided to take a walk by the river to digest the food.
As soon as they came out of the restaurant, they saw Mu Qinglan being stopped by the little beggar.
From a distance, the little beggar knelt down, probably to thank Mu Qinglan.
As for what they said, Mu Nanyan could hardly hear.
The little beggar pointed to a place, Mu Qinglan looked over and nodded at her.
Afterwards, Mu Qinglan took her maid and followed the little beggar.
Mu Nanyan couldn't help but shake her head when she saw this scene. She always had a bad feeling that something would happen to Mu Qinglan sooner or later.
She is so innocent that if she goes with a stranger, even if the stranger is a child, she can be easily hurt.
Mu Nanyan looked up and watched them leave, wanting to call out to them, but unfortunately they were too far away and they didn't hear her.
"What's wrong, Yan'er? Is there something wrong?" Mo Linyuan asked when he saw her frowning and looking worried.
Mu Nanyan met his gaze and shook her head at him, "Nothing."
Forget it, since the other party can't see it, it's useless no matter how anxious she is.
I hope she is okay.
Although she didn't see Mu Qinglan often, she had a good impression of her.
Mu Nanyan admired the fact that she was able to wake up quickly and give up chasing the prince.
Once some people fall in love, it is difficult to extricate themselves from it.
Mu Qinglan was sober and gave up decisively after realizing that the prince did not love her.
Although the cost of giving up is high, at least she has come out of it now.
Mo Linyuan and Mu Nanyan walked slowly and took a stroll by the river.
Suddenly, Mo Linyuan was bumped by someone coming towards him.
The man quickly steadied himself and said with deep regret, "I'm sorry, sir."
Mu Nanyan looked over and thought, wow, isn't that the top scholar Pei Ruoxuan? Why is he here?
"Are you Pei Ruoxuan?" Mu Nanyan asked tentatively.
Pei Ruoxuan looked anxious. When he heard someone asking him, he looked towards the source of the voice.
The original little princess, no wonder she recognized him.
Pei Ruoxuan was not surprised at all that Mu Nanyan could speak at such a young age.
"Your humble servant greets the little princess." Pei Ruoxuan knelt down.
He knew how important the little princess was to Emperor Hui and did not dare to be disrespectful to her.
"Get up and tell me why you are in such a hurry. Where are you going?" Mu Nanyan was a little curious.
Today is the Lantern Festival, there is nothing to rush.
"This..." Pei Ruoxuan hesitated when faced with the other party's question.
