At this moment, the fireflies were released, and countless light points slowly rose from the originally dark area below, like scattered jewels and shining stars.
He was stunned for a moment when he saw this scene, and then he said to the flowing fireflies: "Chen Shuang, it's very beautiful."
My mind felt like it was exploding, a chaotic mess. Was this just some casual play made under the banner of alliance friendship? Why was my brain, like it had crashed, unable to say or do anything at this moment?
Three, two, one, I immediately regained my composure. The heroine was about to come, so I had to stay calm and sober. I sighed, "As long as your majesty likes it." I leaned out as far as I could, away from his arms. He eventually let go of his hands and placed them on the railing like me.
There were only faint sounds of insects all around. Even after I warmed up the cold railings, no one came downstairs. The fireflies were about to fly away. I was a little anxious. How could my heart be beating fast when the lights were gone and I couldn't even see the heroine's face?
In the end, only a few fireflies were left swirling in the air. I was completely stunned today. A gust of evening breeze blew, and I felt a chill.

Then he turned to me and said, "There are still some memorials to be reviewed in the Yangxin Palace. You should get a good rest tonight."
I was still a little dazed after he left, until I took a few steps and saw someone—Empress Hua. She was standing behind the grass below the Moon Watching Tower, wearing an elegant robe that lacked any brilliance in the darkness.
She raised the corners of her mouth towards me, but for the first time I felt the bitterness in it. It was also the first time that she did not yell at me or ridicule me. Instead, she slowly walked away with A Yuan's support.
The night was as cool as water. I untied the ties of my cloak and, like Empress Hua, curled my lips gently. Xiao Cui asked me why I had untied my cloak, and my voice drifted into the dark night: "The show is over, so naturally, the props must be taken down."
