King’s House Kindergarten

After passing through Hancheng, it is only half the journey to Beijing.

Earlier, I went from Beijing to Xucheng. It was a single city that was detoured. I left Beijing on the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month and arrived at Xucheng on the 26th of the twelfth lunar month. It took about 20 days on the way.

Now passing through the first line of Hancheng, you can save three or four days on the road.

On the sixth day of the lunar year, when I left Xucheng and arrived at Wancheng, it happened to be the Lantern Festival.

In the city of Wancheng, there are lanterns and colorful lights everywhere, like fire trees and silver flowers never night.

Children love to have fun.

Wancheng is famous for its lanterns, so the Lantern Festival is especially lively, and many people from other places come to Wancheng to see the lanterns.

The streets were crowded with each other, and there was a lot of urgency. Even though there were secret guards opening the way, they would still be crowded by the crowd.

The older children, such as Suisui, A Si, Xiao Wu, and Xiao Liu, were all led by Mama Pang, Chunyu, Cong Qing and Mama Wang, for fear of being separated.

Among the younger children, Zhuo Yuan held Tao Tao in his arms and protected Tao Tao.

Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba ride on the shoulders of Zhuo Ye and Zhuo Xin respectively, but they can see higher and farther places.

The entire street market in Wancheng was surrounded by water, and the children had rarely seen such a lively scene, and finally shouted to watch it from a high place.

In the end, Zhuo Ye had to let the young masters and young ladies of the palace ride on the shoulders of the dark guards, which made it much more stable.

Shen Yue lives with Taotao, and also with Zhuoyuan.

In the surging crowd, Zhuo Yuan has been protecting her, and she doesn't seem to need to worry about anyone else.

It's just that there are rabbit ears in the headwear sold during the Lantern Festival. Shen Yue has always been a childish one. She bought a pair of rabbit ears for Taotao, Xiaoliu, and Suisui, and she also brought a pair of rabbit ears.

Zhuo Yuan couldn't help laughing, "It's weird..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Taotao smiled and took off her rabbit ears and put them on Zhuo Yuan's head.

"Peach..." Zhuo Yuan protested.

Tao Tao smiled even more happily, "Uncle looks good with it!"

"Take it off for uncle!" Zhuo Yuan was determined.

Before he finished speaking, there were laughter behind him.

Zhuo Yuan didn't need to think about it, he also knew that a group of secret guards were laughing, and it was Zhuo Ye who took the lead.

He is also the King of Pingyuan anyway. If he bumps into one or two familiar faces from Beijing, should he find a hole to get in!

But Taotao looked at his face, put her arms around his neck quietly, and smiled happily in his ear, "You can't take it, uncle! If you take it, uncle won't be a rabbit."

"..." Zhuo Yuan couldn't think of anything.

Taotao continued to laugh quietly, "Rabbit Qingzhi and Rabbit Ayue are a couple, don't Rabbit Ayue wear rabbit ears?"

"..." Zhuo Yuan felt that Tao Tao gave the reason why he couldn't refuse.

"Then take it for a while." Zhuo Yuan chuckled softly.

Tao Tao smiled and touched the bunny ears on his head.

On one side, Shen Yue looked at him in surprise, did she really not take it down?

Instead, he enjoyed it himself.

Shen Yue suddenly thought, yes, when she was in Xucheng, she even wore hibiscus-colored clothes for a whole day in front of everyone during the New Year, and now she only wears rabbit ears.

The most important thing about the Lantern Festival is to buy lanterns.

It's just that most of the best lanterns in the market have an unwritten rule. If you guess the lantern riddle first, the store will give away the treasure of the town store.

Most of the lanterns that can be bought are not the best lanterns.

Not only in the Western Qin Dynasty, but also in the other places.

Xiao Liu fell in love with a lantern and watched it from a distance for a long time.

Shen Yue stepped forward and saw that Xiao Liu was looking at an eight-sided lantern.

The lanterns are exquisitely carved and each side is made of a fine painting. It is another revolving lantern. When the lantern turns, the eight-sided lantern will be connected into a coherent story.

Therefore, it is an extremely rare revolving lantern.

Such lanterns are mostly treasures used by shop owners to attract customers. Not to mention the craftsmanship, the workmanship alone may take several years, so such lanterns are often hung for several years, and will not be Easy to guess.

"What's wrong?" Zhuo Yuan saw Shen Yue looking at the lantern in a trance.

Shen Yue said softly, "I think Xiao Liu likes that lantern very much and has been looking at it for a long time, but this lantern is in good shape, I'm afraid it's hard to guess..."

Zhuo Yuan leaned over to her ear and said warmly, "I won't try it. If I can't guess, it will damage my image and let Zhuo Xin go."

Shen Yue almost laughed out loud.

Just as Uncle Tao came forward, "Your Highness."

Zhuo Yuan looked back at Tao Dongzhou.

Uncle Tao rarely interrupts at this time, and today is the Lantern Festival, Uncle Tao's face seems to be a little pale.

"Uncle Tao, wait a moment." Zhuo Yuan responded first.

Tao Dongzhou bowed his hands.

Zhuo Yuan said to Tao Tao in his arms, "Tao Tao, uncle has something to do, will you be with A Yue?"

Tao Tao nodded obediently.

Zhuo Yuan put her down, and took off the pair of rabbit ears from his head and put them on Taotao. Taotao touched the rabbit ears on her head and was very happy, holding Shen Yue's hand and saying , "I am Rabbit Taotao."

Shen Yue squatted down and nodded earnestly at her, "Hello Rabbit Taotao, I'm Rabbit Ayue, should we guess lantern riddles together?"

"Of course!" Rabbit Taotao cooperated.

Shen Yue took the rabbit Tao Tao together.

Zhuo Xinzheng was with Xiao Wu, and they both insisted on their own opinions. They firmly felt that the lanterns they liked were more beautiful, and they firmly felt that the other party's lanterns were ugly.

Well, almost like brothers.

Shen Yue took Tao Tao forward, "Zhuoxin, Tian Tian."

Xiao Wuzheng blushed with anger, and when he saw Shen Yue stepped forward, he quickly said, "Ayue, come and judge the judge, tell me which of the two lanterns is more ugly! I think the one my brother is holding is ugly, my brother thinks I like ugly, Ayue, you judge!"

A Yue clenched her fist and coughed lightly. She felt that after hearing Xiao Wu's words, the shopkeeper's face was the most ugly...

Shen Yue quickly paid the money, "It's all good-looking! It's all good-looking!"

The shopkeeper's face seemed to be slightly relieved.

Then the two lanterns were divided between Zhuo Xin and Xiao Wu. Zhuo Xin was still annoyed, "They said they were ugly, so what else did you buy them for?"

Shen Yue hurriedly dragged the two of them away before the shop ate no one.

"By the way, Xiaoliu likes that lantern that runs from all sides. It's not for sale, but it needs to be guessed. Do you want to help?" Shen Yue snorted.

Zhuo Xin ringed his arms, "What's the use of a bull's knife to kill a chicken!"

Then the "cow's knife" was dragged into the store.

Because this eight-sided revolving lantern is particularly conspicuous, the place for guessing lantern riddles in the hall was almost surrounded by water.

In the distance, Zhuo Yuan asked in a low voice, "What happened?"

Uncle Tao would not interrupt them at this time for no reason. Moreover, when his father was there, Uncle Tao followed his father in the palace. He had never seen such a big storm, but he rarely saw Uncle Tao look like this.

Tao Dongzhou bowed his hands again and said solemnly, "My lord, the dark guards sent to the Sixth Highness's side are gone."

Zhuo Yuan's face suddenly stiffened.

Before Lianyuan left Xiqin, the people from the Pingyuan Palace had not shown their faces, they just stared at Lianyuan in secret, and the people who showed up were all from He Cai and Luyuemen.

Later, in Jinzhou, Luyuemen met with the prince (the third prince), and someone secretly took action and successfully sent Lianyuan out of Western Qin. He thought it was Weng Yun earlier, but the teacher reminded him later that he was thinking of Tianjia.

The prince should also know that.

If the Crown Prince was smart, he shouldn't have anything more to do, but it was true that even the dark guards he sent to Cang Yue were gone, so Lianyuan was more fortunate than fortunate.

Sure enough, Zhuo Yuan didn't answer for a long time.

Zhuo Yuan whispered, "He Cai and the people from Luyuemen are proficient in the Qimen Dunjia technique, so it won't happen so easily. With Luyuemen's style, if something happens, He Cai will find a way to notify me, when will it happen?"

Tao Dongzhou replied, "It will take more than ten days for the news to arrive, and it is something around the New Year's Eve."

"Find someone to go to Cang Yue, Lianyuan is probably still alive, but there is danger." Zhuo Yuan said in a deep voice.

Tao Dongzhou replied, "The old slave has already arranged."

Zhuo Yuan nodded, "Uncle Tao, I'm thinking about something."

"Your Highness?" Tao Dongzhou looked at him.

Zhuo Yuan said, "If the person who helped Lianyuan out of danger in Jinzhou was the Tianjia, the crown prince would not have not heard the news. It did stop for a while in the middle, and now, it suddenly makes a comeback. Uncle Tao, do you think that the Tianjia? There must be a problem with the prince."

"What does the lord mean?" Tao Dongzhou also heard the clue.

Zhuo Yuan sighed, "I'm afraid there will be other things that we didn't expect when we return to Beijing this time."

Zhuo Yuan frowned slightly.

When he turned back to the market, he saw that Xiao Liu had already held the lantern in his arms, not to mention how happy he was.

Zhuo Yuan was stunned, Zhuo Xin really guessed?

Just now, it was obvious that the person who squeezed into the lantern riddle guessing place with Shen Yue was Zhuo Xin, could it be possible, or Shen Yue?

Zhuo Yuan stepped forward in surprise. When Xiao Liu saw him, he quickly pointed to the lantern in his hand to show him, meaning, Uncle Liu, she really likes it!

Zhuo Yuan rarely saw Xiao Liu so happy, so he turned to look at Shen Yue, "Can you guess?"

The eyes are full of surprises.

Shen Yue sighed, "Can you guess again?"

After a moment, Xiao Ba's voice came, "Fourth brother, you are so amazing! How can you guess this!"

Xiao Wu also said excitedly, "The store has said it, even the champion may not be able to guess!"

Ah Si said softly, "How do you know that I won't be able to become the champion in the future?"

Xiao Wu "giggled" and said with a smile, "Bragging!"

After he finished speaking, he ran, causing Ah Si and Xiao Bayi to kick him out.

Zhuo Ye's whole person is a little bad. If he is facing a big enemy, he starts again. He knows that it can't stop anywhere!

There are people everywhere! Eyes are going blind!

Zhuo Yuan raised his brows slightly, Ah Si is very smart, but he shouldn't be so smart...

Zhuo Yuan circled his arms and looked at Ah Si, Xiao Wu and Xiao Ba who were chasing in the market not far away.

It happened that Shen Yue stepped forward, "Look at this."

Zhuo Yuan's thoughts were interrupted, and he did not continue to think deeply. Looking at the handful of mung beans in her hand, Zhuo Yuan couldn't help but ask, "What's so special about mung beans?"

Shen Yue smiled and said, "I just suddenly remembered that when I go back to Beijing, the spring flowers are almost blooming, so I can plant bean sprouts!"

Zhuo Yuan wanted to laugh at first, but what kind of bean sprouts are he planting well, but Suisui on one side asked curiously, "Ayue, what are bean sprouts?"

Shen Yue squatted down, and Tong Suisui explained, "When spring begins, soak the mung beans in clean water for a night, then put them in the soil, and the bean sprouts will start to grow every two days!"

Suisui's eyes lit up, "I've never planted it before!"

Shen Yue smiled and said, "It's best to plant bean sprouts. At that time, the babies can grow bean sprouts together, and they can observe and record the changes of their own bean sprouts every day."

Suisui was clearly interested, "Sounds interesting, I want to plant bean sprouts too."

Zhuo Yuan restrained the forbearance in his eyes, and suddenly felt that no matter what the surroundings were, when Shen Yue was with the children, the brows were quiet and the years were quiet.

He wants to keep this tranquility all the time, just like this lantern that is prosperous in the hands of Xiaoliu...

***

In the border town, Lianyuan hurriedly chased the person wearing the blue-faced and fangs mask in front of her, as if she was afraid of being separated from him.

"What are you doing with me?" The blue-faced fangs mask turned around.

Lianyuan took a deep breath, "A Cai and I are separated, I can only follow you."

Under the blue-faced fangs mask, Changyi sighed softly, "Xu Yuan, you've been following me for more than ten days. How can you find A Cai?"

Xu was her mother's surname.

Others only know that her name is Xu Yuan.

Xu Yuan said confidently, "Of course I can't find Ah Cai, but I'll be safe with you. As long as I'm safe, Ah Cai will come to me."

Changyi looked at her with dark eyes.

Xu Yuan put her hands behind her back, and suddenly smiled, "Changyi, today is the Lantern Festival, please send me a lantern and let me move around."

Changyi looked at her, and suddenly he threw a purse in his hand and kept giving it to her, "Buy it yourself."

Xu Yuan took it and smiled.

When I turned back, I held more than ten lanterns in my hand, "Hey, don't they all look good?"

Changyi looked at her, "Just be happy."
