Chapter 166 Let's beat the ninja together!

The Lantern Festival, also known as Shangyuan Festival in the Great Xia Dynasty, means the joy of the Heavenly Officials. The custom of lighting lanterns and setting off fireworks on Shangyuan Festival came from this.

The entire capital city was hung with Lantern Festival lanterns, and it was very lively.

Shen Chaoyan was very happy to learn that Sikong Yan was going to take her with him when he left the palace, and she immediately opened the closet to pick out clothes.

"Green melon, how about this one?"

Shen Chaoyan took out a light yellow long skirt and gestured in front of her.

Green Gua replied sincerely, "My queen, this dress is beautiful, but it's too thin. It's windy at night, you should wear something thicker!"

Shen Chaoyan turned her head and glanced at the bare branches of the crabapple tree outside the window, and decided to accept her opinion, "You are right, I'll change into the thickest dress!"

Anyway, she is naturally beautiful, and she looks good in any dress!

When she went out with Sikong Yan, she found that the cold wind outside was like a knife on her face.

The cold air was inhaled through her nose, freezing her lungs.

Sikong Yan saw Shen Chaoyan hunching her neck since she got off the carriage, so he immediately ordered someone to bring a hood and put it on her personally, "Will it be warmer this way?"

Shen Chaoyan's face turned red with cold, and she rubbed her hands and nodded, "Yeah, much better."

Sikong Yan watched her movements, stretched out his big hand and held her hand, "Will it be warmer this way?"

Shen Chaoyan felt the warmth from his palm and couldn't help but nodded, "Yeah! Very warm!"

She looked up at the man. Sikong Yan changed into a silver-white Cantonese-style waisted robe, with a long white jade tassel hanging around his waist, and a white jade hair crown tied up his black hair, making him look extraordinarily handsome.

Sikong Yan looked at the surprise in her eyes, feeling quite happy, and walked forward holding her hand.

There were vendors on both sides of the street, and the cries of various accents could be heard everywhere.

Tonight, there were especially many stalls selling all kinds of lanterns.

All kinds of lanterns were hung on the stalls, some in the shape of flowers, and some in the shape of small animals, in red and green, dazzling the eyes.

The whole long street was lit up by the lanterns as if it were daytime.

Shen Chaoyan looked at the lanterns of various styles, his face full of curiosity.

At this time, there was a stall in front of him that was crowded with people.

Shen Chaoyan looked at it, her eyes lit up, "Your Majesty, they are playing lantern riddles over there, let's go and take a look!"

Sikong Yan glanced at her lovingly and curled his lips, "Okay, I'll buy you the ones you like."

Shen Chaoyan dragged him to watch other people playing lantern riddles, but she didn't guess any herself.

Seeing that she was just clapping and cheering for others, Sikong Yan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "You don't want to guess?"

Shen Chaoyan shook her head, "No, just watch for fun!"

The main reason was that she had the Heavenly Book in her hand, and as long as she looked at the riddle, the Heavenly Book would automatically output the answer. Playing like this, it would be unfair even if she won.

It would be better to let these talented men and beautiful women guess for fun, maybe it would even help to make a few couples.

"Tanghulu! Big and sweet Tanghulu!"

An old man was selling Tanghulu next to her.

Shen Chaoyan saw many children gathered there to buy Tanghulu, and she was a little greedy.

"Husband, I want to eat Tanghulu, do you want a string?"

Seeing that she called him husband so easily, Sikong Yan curled his lips and felt a subtle sweetness in his heart, "Just buy one string, I don't like sweet food."

Shen Chaoyan knew that he didn't like to go to crowded places, "You wait here for me, I'll be back soon."

She said, squeezed to the stall selling Tanghulu, and lined up to buy a string of Tanghulu.

The big red hawthorn was wrapped in a layer of transparent sugar coating and sprinkled with white sesame seeds. The color was bright and bright, not to mention how tempting it was.

Seeing that Sikong Yan was really standing by the roadside waiting for her, Shen Chaoyan immediately ran towards him, "It's delicious, you really don't want one? I'll give you the biggest one on top?"

Sikong Yan lowered his eyes to meet her bright eyes, his heart already wavering.

Facing such delicious candied haws, Shen Chaoyan waited for a moment, and when she saw that the man didn't nod, she brought the candied haws to her mouth.

At the same time, Sikong Yan also leaned over and moved closer.

When she bit the first hawthorn, Sikong Yan's teeth also bit on the first hawthorn.

Shen Chaoyan was startled and subconsciously raised her eyes.

The two people's eyes met.

They were very close, with only a string of candied haws between them.

The ambiguous atmosphere was instantly filled.

The candied haws bitten by two people at the same time: I shouldn't be here, I should be in the mouths of both of you.

Shen Chaoyan looked at the man's smiling eyes, her eyes widened, and when she noticed the gazes of passers-by on the road, her cheeks quickly became hot.

The next moment, her mouth loosened the candied haws, and she took a half step back.

Under her gaze, Sikong Yu took the top candied haws away and chewed it carefully, "Well, it's really sweet."

The heat on Shen Chaoyan's cheeks had not yet subsided, and before she could speak, the Book of Heaven suddenly appeared at an inopportune time.

[Host, it's not good! The ninja that Sikong Yu brought back from Japan has locked onto the tyrant! You are so close to the tyrant, it will be dangerous, this heavenly book suggests you to retreat to a distance of 200 meters behind the tyrant! 】

Shen Chaoyan: [I suggest you don't suggest it! 】

This place is the most prosperous street in the capital, those ninjas should just be targeting them, not here to attack.

Since they took the initiative to deliver themselves to the door, why not kill them in one fell swoop?

Shen Chaoyan is a man of action. After making a decision, he immediately took Sikong Yan's hand and said, "There are too many people here, let's go to another street!"

Sikong Yan seemed to have no followers, but in fact, Xuan Cang, as the leader of the hidden guards, led the entire hidden guard team and silently protected them in the dark.

If those ninjas came, Xuan Cang would definitely notice it.

Thinking about it, he nodded to Shen Chaoyan, "Okay, we'll go wherever you want to go."

He and Shen Chaoyan had the same idea. It was rare for the prey to come to the door. Wouldn't it be a pity not to take advantage of such a good opportunity?

The two walked through the crowded crowd, then turned and headed towards the street by the river.

As the number of people decreased, Sikong Yan could feel footsteps following them not far away.

He narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but tighten his grip on Shen Chaoyan's hand.

At this time, the Heavenly Book appeared again: [Host, those ninjas are getting ready to attack! You must be careful!]

Great, they are waiting for them!

Shen Chaoyan was ready to fight!

At this time, Sikong Yan also stopped, "My dear, wait here for a while, I have to go to the toilet."

No!

Let's beat the ninjas together!

She hasn't exercised for a long time, so tonight she will practice with these little bastards!

However, those ninjas came for the tyrant. Now that he is gone, will he still have a chance to shine?

Sikong Yan listened to her rich inner drama, feeling angry and amused.

Swords have no eyes, and he was worried that she would get hurt, so he planned to lure those ninjas away.

However, before Sikong Yan could explain to her, they heard rustling sounds in their ears.

They both turned their heads to look at the source of the sound.

They saw several ninjas in black clothes and black scarves, holding samurai swords, rushing towards them at an extremely fast speed!
