Hearing her words, she joked: "I heard my husband say that Wen Bo Hou had been begging you for it back then, but she dug out all her thoughts and spent her time thinking about how to please you. Did she not come with you to meet a beautiful lady under the lantern?"

Mu Rousang's expression slightly changed. She was stunned for a moment before replying, "At that time, he was far away in the Western Regions. How could she have the free time to do all these?"

Seeing that the Princess Jing'an did not believe him, she continued to speak: "Have you read too many talented people's books recently? But there was a new one? "Hurry up and show it to me."

Princess Jing'an and the palace maids that she brought all laughed, pointing at her he said: "This time you guys must believe me, right? She just loves to read the fox ghost books, I don't believe that there are truly fox spirits in this world."

Mu Rousang could not help but laugh: "Even if it is just a book, it is just something invented by scholars. I brought it to see, and it is only to kill time when I have nothing better to do, how can the things written be true?"

"That's enough. Later, I'll tell my cousin the emperor to issue an order and have those poor scholars write a few more books, so I can go and search them for you to pass the time."

The Princess Jing'an laughed lovingly and said, "However, this wine cannot be lacking."

"I know!"

Mu Rousang walked shoulder to shoulder with her, observing and laughing while talking, orange lights, yellow snowflakes, and a sky as pure as black jade. Two petite women dressed in gold silk cloaks with jujube red stripes leaned against each other, looking up at the lanterns hanging on the treetops, or the fake top of the mountain, or even the flower lanterns that were placed at the base of the trees.

This painting was similar to the painting of a courtesan as the elegant man gently sketched it out.

This painting was similar to the painting of a courtesan as the elegant man gently sketched it out.

Of course, this was just what everyone was thinking!

"Mistress, it's snowing!"

Fan Yingde trembled from the cold. The newly emerged emperor stood in the darkness of the small pavilion, staring foolishly in that direction for a long time.

"Fall outside the pavilion!"

The meaning of Su Ruirui's words was that the snow was falling outside, why are you shouting, there are even pyrethrum growing in the small pavilion.

"But master, isn't it about time to take a look at the empress dowager's place?"

As the general director, Fan Yingde naturally thought about everything far more than Su Ruirui, so he had to think twice more about everything. If Su Ruirui was only the Xiangyang's Duke, then Fan Yingde would not stop him so easily.

"You have an objection!" Su Ruirui frowned.

Fan Yingde replied honestly, "I don't dare to. Madam, you have known me as a servant since you were young. You are a person that I love dearly."

"Humph!" Su Ruirui was very unhappy that he interrupted him to admire the beautiful painting.

"Send someone to paint this place tomorrow." Then he said, "No need!"

He wanted to personally remember this scene. When he grew old, he could still remember that in the prime of his life, there had once been a person he loved who had stopped by to admire the lamps!

"Your majesty!"

Fan Yingde had no choice but to remind his again.

"You want to control me!" Su Ruirui's dignity could not be provoked.

"This servant doesn't dare!"

Fan Yingde knew that he could no longer speak up to persuade his.

"Mother said that she would give the red coral in her hall to Jing'an."

Su Ruirui indifferently replied as his gaze floated into the air, seeming to have fallen into some sort of memory.

Mu Rousang did not know that there were people sneaking glances at her. She did not know a thing about guessing, it was purely for the sake of looking at the lamps, and did not have such an elegant habit.

Princess Jing'an looked at the lanterns in the palace every year, and only kept pulling Mu Rousang to show her what new lights she had added this year, hence the two of them took the palace maids and casually walked wherever they could see them.

At this moment, an aunt wearing a palace dress came over to greet the two of them. She smiled and said, "Princess, the empress dowager is waiting for you at the palace. I'm counting on you to tell her about this lantern."

It was obvious that this aunt was someone in front of the empress dowager, and was extremely familiar with Princess Jing'an.

Princess Jing'an looked at Mu Rousang with difficulty, then asked: "Have you seen Liu Wanshi?"

"Reporting to the princess, I'm afraid Liu Wanshi won't be able to come back for a while. The empress dowager is very happy to see Liu Wanshi, so she left her there to make some food. After a while, she will send someone to send her back."

The aunt answered respectfully.

Aunt Liu was originally someone who served the empress dowager, but then Su Ruirui asked him to become Mu Rousang's upbringing aunt.

Therefore, the empress dowager would not summon Mu Rousang to go with her just because she wanted to see the Aunt Liu.

That aunt had clearly also seen this situation and said, "Princess, don't worry. This servant has already called two of the palace maids over."

When Princess Jing'an saw that the two little palace maids were also the empress dowager's servants when she was a Imperial Concubine, she found them very familiar.

"Little sister, I'll be right back. Don't go too far. Although this is an imperial garden and it's a banquet, you're still not familiar with the palace. Don't leave this garden and go to the wrong place."

"Got it. You go ahead. I'll stay here and watch the lights. I'll head back to the banquet later. It seems like it's getting late. When you return, you'll probably be out of the palace."

Mu Rousang had stayed in the palace for the night, so she was aware of the dangers in the shadows.

"Madam, how about this servant bring you to see a lion dance dragon?" When a small palace maid saw that she was just standing there in a daze, she felt a little unhappy in her heart.

"Acting tough? "Dragon Dance?"

Mu Rousang's pair of watery eye s lit up in the darkness even more than lanterns.

"Yes, the dragon dance is really pretty. When those people dance, the back of the dragon will even have fireworks!" It's really pretty. "

The other palace maid replied with a smile, revealing two small canines, very cute!

"Hurry up and take me to see, I'm still in Shu City …"

Speaking of which, Mu Rousang suddenly had a feeling of insanity that overlapped with her old memories, and felt uneasy in her heart.

"So Madam is from Shu Province?" The palace maid with canine teeth asked with a smile.

"What are your names?" Mu Rousang felt a bit of relief, and found it funny that he was too sensitive.

"This servant's name is Rose, Hibiscus [1]."

Mu Rousang nodded her head, it seemed like the little palace maid called Rose was given this because she had little tiger teeth.

A beauty disaster!

This was what Fan Yingde thought in his heart, but he was also aware of Mu Rousang's personality.

The sky above the Great Zhou Imperial Palace was lit brightly with gongs, drums, laughter, and excitement. The pavilions and pavilions were filled with ladies who came to watch the dragon dance. Most of them were young ladies.

Mu Rousang stood at the corner of a small path, her delicate little foot did not fall for a long time.

The two palace maids leading the way saw that she was standing there without moving, so they didn't say anything and just waited quietly.

After an unknown period of time, Mu Rousang felt that her little feet were a little frozen, and she was swaying a little, unable to stand, yet unwilling to go any further. If she went back to the banquet right now, she would have to face the questions of all those mischievous b * tches, asking about right and wrong!

Rose was the first to lose control, and shouted, "Mme Marquis Wen!"

Mu Rousang looked towards the direction of the dragon dance, only to see the two of them squatting down at the same time to pay their respects.

Her heart skipped a beat as she tilted her head to look behind her. A ray of bright yellow light flashed across her eyes!

He sighed in his heart, took a deep breath and slowly turned around. He was stunned for a moment!

In his memory, Su Ruirui had already gone far away from where he was. He was tall and straight, but his hair had already turned slightly white. Or was Hui Ji bound to be injured?

Su Ruirui stared at her without blinking, afraid that in the blink of an eye, the little girl in front of him was just a flower in a mirror, Shuiyue, all that remained was a dream.

In the blink of an eye, many years had passed. The warmth that the icy man from back then had once exuded had vanished. His eyes were sharper, as if he could see through people's hearts.

Mu Rousang stood there without moving. Su Ruirui was no longer young, but had an additional sense of steadiness and maturity that a man should have.

The two of them looked at each other in silence. After a long while, Su Ruirui waved his hand, signaling the two palace maids to leave.

Mu Rousang opened her mouth to leave the two people behind, but Su Ruirui had already spoken: "Accompany me for a walk."

It was as if they had met each other for the first time, as though he had always looked at Mu Rousang evenly from start to finish.

"Alright!"

He agreed without hesitation.

He played with the Jade Class Finger on his thumb and placed it on his stomach. Then, he casually chose a quiet path.

Seeing that there were no lights on the path, Mu Rousang hesitated to take a step forward.

Su Ruirui said: "Since when are you so cowardly?"

Mu Rousang shook her head lightly, then followed him again. Even though that feeling had passed, there was still an imprint in her heart.

"Are you okay? "No, you are living a good life now. Above all others, you are being looked up to by the world."

She thought, this is what Su Ruirui wanted, as expected, love was just an ornament in his life.

He muttered to himself for a moment, then nodded his head, accepting Mu Rousang's words.

"Go over there!"

Mu Rousang looked towards the direction that he pointed to, it was a small pavilion that was beside the water, but now that the pond was dried up and filled with a thick layer of snow, it made people's hearts soften.

She could not say no. They would meet again in many years. The two of them both wanted to talk quietly, but after thinking that this was the imperial garden, she said, "Let it be here!"

"It's too cold!"

Su Ruirui still did not speak much, and he knew that Mu Rousang could understand it.

"But you're no longer a prince, and there are quite a few noble madams here today. I don't want the news that you've become a smelly salted fish to spread tomorrow."
