When did such a guard appear in the palace?
Judging from the looks of it... he doesn't seem to be compatible with the guards?
Feeling Mu Qingli's gaze, Feng Shiwu still showed no expression.
He was the master's bodyguard, there was no doubt about that.
After watching for a while, Mu Qingli withdrew his gaze, pulled Feng Chen beside him, and joined the group visiting the lantern festival.
"It just so happens that Feng Chen and I have nothing to do tonight, so why don't you take us with you, Princess?"
The words spoken are meant to be a negotiation, but the tone and actions are not.
Looking at Mu Qingli and Feng Chen who were already standing in the team, Wanyue felt a little panicked.
It seems that Shen Meiqing only made an appointment with her, right?
She brought so many people with her...will the little girl be angry?
If Shen Meiqing got angry, would she not take her out to eat?
In a panic, Wanyue took people to the agreed place.
Shen Meiqing had arrived early. This was the first time she asked Sister Lu out to play, and she couldn't let Sister Lu wait for her.
In addition to Shen Meiqing, there was another person standing behind her. He was a handsome young man wearing a dark blue robe, which matched the light blue dress of Shen Meiqing next to him.
"Sister Lu!"
Seeing Wanyue and her group, Shen Meiqing raised his hand and waved, his face full of smiles.
Wanyue walked over, and Chen Meiqing came over and naturally took Wanyue's hand.
This action instantly attracted the attention of the other three people except Feng Chen.
Prince Ming touched his chin and sighed. His precious daughter was an only child and had been playing alone since she was young. There was no one around her except Xiuhe. Now she finally had a friend who seemed to have a good relationship with her.
Feng Shiwu stared straight at Chen Meiqing's hand that was holding Wanyue's. He felt it was a bit dazzling and a feeling of depression rose in his heart.
Compared to the relatively calm reactions of the previous two people, Mu Qingli exploded directly.
Lu Wanyue, have you become more capable?
How long have you known each other and you're already so close?
Are you a little reserved?!
Mu Qingli directly waved away Feng Chen's hand, ignoring Feng Chen's resentful eyes, and walked forward.
Here, Wanyue was listening attentively to what Shen Meiqing was saying about the delicious food that could be eaten tonight, when suddenly a hand came onto her arm.
"What are you talking about so happily? Why don't you tell me?"
Mu Qingli smiled with her lips curled up, and her beautiful face gave people a strong visual impact.
Wanyue looked at Mu Qingli's face and blinked slowly.
Shen Meiqing looked at the third person who suddenly interrupted, her eyes narrowed slightly.
In just a few breaths, Mu Qingli and Shen Meiqing had exchanged glances for several rounds, and the atmosphere was turbulent.
Wanyue shook her head and replied to Mu Qingli's question, "Oh, we were just talking about what to eat later. I didn't expect there would be so many delicious foods at the Lantern Festival."
As she spoke, Wanyue's eyes lit up slightly.
Shen Meiqing on the left echoed, "Yes, there are a lot of delicious food at the Lantern Festival. I'll buy them all for Sister Lu later!"
Wanyue nodded vigorously, "Okay."
We'll be able to eat delicious food soon!
Mu Qingli on the right secretly gritted his teeth. This guy surnamed Chen was quite skilled and knew how to exploit the weak spots of stupid women.
"I heard that rouge, powder, and dresses will also be sold at the Lantern Festival. Why don't you wait for the princess to accompany me to buy them later?"
As he spoke, Mu Qingli raised his hand to smooth the hair beside his ear, and the curve of his smile widened.
Wanyue was instantly attracted by his gaze and nodded faster and faster.
Chen Meiqing narrowed her eyes and looked at Mu Qingli, and a new round of undercurrents emerged between the two.
To those who didn't know, the three of them were holding hands, smiling non-stop, and the atmosphere was quite disharmonious.
But the truth is, only the parties involved know.
After staring at each other for a while, Chen Meiqing withdrew her gaze and walked to the side with Wanyue in her arm. Mu Qingli was forced to follow.
"Sister Lu, this is my brother, you have met him before."
Shen Meiqing began to introduce the young man in blue robe standing beside him.
The elder brother of the Shen family stepped forward and greeted him, "Princess, Concubine Mu."
Behind them, Prince Ming and his entourage also followed.
The group got to know each other and officially started the purpose of their trip, which was to visit the lantern festival.
On the bustling street, a group of people walked separately. Wanyue, Mu Qingli and Shen Meiqing walked in front, Prince Ming and Feng Shiwu walked in the middle, and Feng Chen and Brother Shen walked at the end.
Feng Chen, who was walking behind, looked up at Mu Qingli in front of him from time to time, his face and eyes full of resentment.
There are many stalls on both sides of the street, some selling food, some selling interesting little toys, and some selling clothes and jewelry.
Chen Meiqing held Wanyue's hand, bought food from one stall, and then went to the next. After a while, Wanyue had a lot of food in her arms.
In addition to Wanyue, Mu Qingli next to her also had her arms full of food, all bought by Chen Meiqing for Wanyue.
Seeing that the three of them were almost out of stock, Shen Meiqing stopped and did not move to the next stall.
"Sister Lu, eat for a while and buy more later."
Wanyue nodded and stuffed a piece of unnamed pastry into her mouth, her eyes shining brightly.
These things are all delicious, each one is sweet, so happy!
Mu Qingli next to him handed over a bamboo tube filled with a light red drink.
Holding the bamboo tube, Mu Qingli frowned and said, "Eat slowly, don't choke, no one is going to snatch it from you."
They had just bought a drink. Wanyue couldn't name it either, but the light red liquid was really delicious! It felt like grape juice, but sweeter.
Wanyue took the bamboo tube, held it and took a big sip, with a look of satisfaction and contentment between her eyebrows.
The food is delicious and the drinks are delicious too.
This kind of life is worthy of the phrase "living in drunkenness and dreaming of death"!
After finishing her drink, Wanyue opened another oil-paper package, picked up the pastries inside and started eating.
Shen Meiqing pointed to the tall row of lanterns in front of her and said, "Let's go guess lantern riddles! I'm really good at it. Sister Lu, wait for me to win you a koi lantern!"
Koi lanterns, as the name suggests, symbolize good luck and are the highest reward in the lantern riddle guessing activity. Only by answering sixty-six riddles in a row can you get a Koi lantern.
Wanyue held the pastry in her hands and ate while looking up. She showed little interest in the lantern riddle guessing activity and the koi lanterns.
Guessing riddles is so boring, she prefers eating.
Mu Qingli next to him agreed, "Okay, then let's go guess the lantern riddles."
She is also very good at guessing riddles. There is only one koi lantern, and if she wants to give one away, she will give it to that stupid woman named Lu!
The suggestion of guessing riddles was agreed by both of them. Before Wanyue could express her opinion, she was dragged to the place where the riddles were to be guessed by Chen Meiqing and Mu Qingli on her left and right.
