Chapter 264 A Cruel Heart

When night fell, the Minister of the Central Secretariat, Minister Jiang, Duke Xu, Prince Yu, Prime Minister and others, surrounded Shen Jing'an and Lin You, as well as Concubine De and Concubine Chan, and went to the observation deck.

Li Fanghua and Xi Meng were also there, and they were all protected by their own people.

The safety of Shen Jing'an and Lin You was the responsibility of Commander Lu and Lin Zhan.

After walking through the high corridor and reaching the observation deck, they could see the Qiao Nu Field.

They could also overlook most of Shengjing.

Tonight was undoubtedly lively. Looking around, the whole Shengjing was full of colorful lights, and the streets were crowded with people, almost everyone holding a unique lantern. Today,

there was not only a show of fighting for skills, but also many young men and women who were in love here.

So, standing on a high position, you can see many boys and girls.

It was the first time that Lin You saw such a prosperous and lively scene, and he was very shocked.

The air was also very good.

[Alas, I was too busy before, and I didn't have time to appreciate the beauty of Shengjing. ]

[The most regrettable thing is that such a lively place can only be viewed from a high place, and can't walk on the street in person, so boring! ]

[Look, the candied haws are bright red and sweet at first glance, and there are also those cakes, those meat jerky, those pastries, and those lanterns are also very beautiful, oooooo...]

[The more I look at it, the more uncomfortable it is, oooooo. ]

All around, hearing Lin You's pitiful voice, everyone couldn't help but sympathize with their queen, but at the same time they were worried for her.

Wouldn't this voice make the emperor furious?

The Zhongshu Ling and the others looked at the weak young emperor cautiously.

However, they heard their cold and weak emperor ask Lin You, "My beloved concubine, do you want anything to eat? I'll ask someone to buy it."

Lin You, whose face was full of sorrow, suddenly brightened up, but her attitude as a concubine was still steady. "Your Majesty is thoughtful. I want to try the meat jerky."

Shen Jing'an, "Anything else?"

Lin You wanted to be more reserved, but she didn't expect Shen Jing'an to ask this question again, so she said: "I think those lanterns are quite unique."

"My queen, I want it too, I want it too."

Xi Meng also stared at the lanterns for a long time.

"Childish."

Li Fanghua, who stood silently, sneered disdainfully.

Xi Meng rolled her eyes at her.

Shen Jing'an repeatedly asked Lin You if she needed anything else, and when Lin You shook her head, he asked someone to buy it.

The ministers beside him almost stared at Shen Jing'an's doting on Lin You.

Shen Yu clenched his fists.

It was obvious that he and Lin You were the ones being surrounded, but now...

Lin You, you really have a cruel heart.

Just because this rubbish showed you a little care, you are so grateful to Shen Jing'an that you betrayed me?

In the past, he didn't understand why Lin You betrayed him, and he didn't believe that she didn't love him.

But now it seems that Lin You, a silly woman who lacks love, must have been fooled by Shen Jing'an's sweet words and a little favor, which made Lin You follow him wholeheartedly.

What a stupid woman.

"Your Majesty, I really want to go down and play."

Xi Meng's heart was really itchy, and she quietly moved to Lin You's side.

Lin You [Woo woo, good sister, I want to go play too.]

"Your Majesty, Princess Xi Meng is so interested in Dasheng Fengcai, why don't you let her go for a walk on the street?"

Lin You spoke up with the thought that she couldn't play, but she also wanted her little sister to play.

Shen Jing'an pondered for a while, looked at Shen Yinlai, "Then let the fourth brother accompany her."

"Me?"

Shen Yinlai suspected that he had heard it wrong.

At this time, he was asked to accompany Xi Meng.

"Ahem, fourth brother, what do you think?" Shen Jing'an's voice was very weak, but he still had the courage.

Shen Yinlai had to take the lead reluctantly, and Xi Meng immediately followed him happily, looking at him with a smile, "Trouble the fourth little prince."

Looking at the two people leaving, Lin You envied them.

Shen Jing'an held her hand tightly, tilted his head slightly, and whispered in her ear, "Next year, I will take you to celebrate the Qiqiao Festival alone."

Lin You was stunned.

His breath was a little hot, causing her fair ears to turn red.

But his words...

Next year? By then, will she still be in Shengjing?

Inexplicably, a sour feeling rose in her heart.

She suppressed the sourness that surged up her throat and smiled brightly at Shen Jing'an, "Okay."

Beside, Chan Fei saw the two of them rubbing their ears in front of so many people, and she was so angry that the jealous fire in her eyes almost burst out.

At this time, Duke Xu touched her hand, then walked aside, Concubine Chan regained her composure and followed him.

She also had many things she wanted to tell her father.

Lin You glanced at the father and daughter and saw that they were conspiring again, sneered in her heart, and retracted her gaze. A father

and daughter who are courting death will not cause any trouble.

"Father, why did your daughter send you so many letters, but you didn't reply or come to the palace to see your daughter."

"The letter says that I haven't received your letter!"

Duke Xu was also very anxious.

He has been waiting for this day for a long time.

After the words fell, a look of understanding appeared in the eyes of the father and daughter.

If she didn't receive the letter, it must be that she was blocked by someone. There are only two people in the palace who can block her letter, either Concubine You Gui or the emperor.

"Lin You is such a jerk. She actually dared to steal my letter."

"So, it was Concubine You who stopped me from entering the palace to see you?"

Before, Duke Xu always thought it was the emperor.

But now think about it, the emperor doesn't care about state affairs, how could he interfere in these things.

It must be that Lin You made the decision privately, or Lin You whispered something in the emperor's ear.

"Let's not talk about this for now."

Concubine Chan leaned close to Duke Xu's ear and talked for a while, and Duke Xu's face changed immediately.

"This, how is this possible? Didn't you say at the time that the plan was very successful?"

Hearing Concubine Chan suspect that there was a parasite in her body, Duke Xu panicked.

"I don't know, but it was very successful at the time, but..." Concubine Chan's expression suddenly became gloomy, "Could it be that Nan Chen deceived Prince Yu and us, not only to trap that person, but also to trap me?"

Hearing this, Duke Xu gritted his teeth.

"This possibility cannot be ruled out. Don't be afraid. I will ask Prince Yu to clarify first, and then let Prince Yu find a way and send someone to show her."

"Then you have to let Prince Yu hurry up. I'm afraid. I haven't been eating or sleeping well these days."

Concubine Chan has already shed tears.

She is going crazy these days.

"Okay, go back quickly, don't let the emperor get suspicious."

The father and daughter returned to their original positions. Shen Yu saw that Duke Xu's face was not very good, and he couldn't help but have a bad premonition in his heart.

Lin You has already eaten the meat jerky, and Shen Jing'an even asked someone to bring her some candied haws.

She ate happily while looking at the girls sitting at the table in the Qiao field, ready to start threading needles under the moon. "

On the table in front of them, there is a unique small table with seven needles hanging on it, with the needle holes ranging from large to small.

The contestant holds a colorful thread, and the first one to pass through all seven needle holes is the winner.
