Chapter 42 Night Tour of Chujing

"What are you thinking about?"

Seeing Chu Mu's worried look, Chen Chen tried to reassure him and said, "Nothing's wrong, I'm just a little upset because of something that happened recently."

"Silly girl, let's go, I'll take you somewhere."

Chen Chen was stunned, and Chu Mu directly pulled Chen Chen up from the chair.

Looking at the narrow window in front of her, Chen Chen's expression directly reflected her thoughts. Chu Mu saw through Chen Chen's thoughts at a glance and said with a smile, "We are walking through the front door."

After saying that, without Chen Chen making a sound, he took her hand and pushed the door open.

Xiaocui cleaned the courtyard and was about to go back to the room to wait for the lady to wash up. When she heard the door, she looked up and saw Chu Mu appearing in front of her in a moon-white dark blue and white robe. The two of them were startled by each other. Xiaocui seemed a little bit

I didn't believe it, so I rubbed my eyes hard, blinked and closed them again.

Still the same familiar facial features and familiar person. Why did he come out of the lady's room, and he actually held her hand.

Seeing Xiao Cui's weird and shocked eyes, Chen Chen lowered his head and pretended not to know anything. After being shocked, Chu Mu flashed a hint of embarrassment and walked out of the door without any reaction from Xiao Cui.

Along the way, the temperaments and faces of the two of them were so eye-catching that the servants in the house were stunned when they saw them. Chen Chen decided to play dumb and let those surprised and shocked eyes pass over him carefully, letting them speculate.

.There is quite a feeling that after passing this level, labor and management are heroes.

The etiquette of the Chu Dynasty was very strict. If a woman's body was seen by a strange man, there were only two ways to go. One was to marry him, the other was to harm herself. Otherwise, it would ruin the family tradition. Although Chu Mu and Chen Chen had an engagement,

As long as one day is not visited, it does not count.

When Chu Mu saw that Chen Chen was silent, he thought she was shy. He secretly tightened Chen Chen's little hand to give her strength silently. His sleeves covered their small movements. Chen Chen felt warm in his heart. She was not afraid. She was just in love.

cowardly

"Can you ride a horse?" Chu Mu asked

Although he didn't know what Chu Mu was going to do, Chen Chen immediately replied "yes"

When Chu Mu heard this, his footsteps suddenly stopped. If he remembered correctly, Wanyue was usually most afraid of horses.

Seeing Chu Mu suddenly stop, Chen Chen asked in confusion, "What's the matter?"

Chu Mu turned around and saw Chen Chen's confused look, and couldn't help but chuckle, secretly thinking that he might have been really busy recently, why he became suspicious of everything. How could Wanyue not be Wanyue?

"Nothing, I've asked the coachman to wait there."

When he went out, he saw a red and white carriage waiting on the path next to the mansion. Chu Mu was very meticulous, and the carriage looked ordinary on the outside, but his horses were all tribute from the Simon Prairie.

A bloody horse can travel a thousand miles overnight. There is only a tea set in the carriage, and the seats are covered with fur and are very soft. Warm and elegant, don't underestimate these things, as long as this tea set is

I'm afraid it's all hard to find.

The night is approaching, and the streets are becoming more and more lively. The shops are decorated with colorful lights, and there are more and more people on the streets. Today is the Lantern Festival. Every festival like this is the busiest time in the capital of the Chu Dynasty.

Looking up, I could see that the small road passing through the city was full of exquisite lights. On both sides of the road were two long rows of red lights. There were laughter and laughter everywhere, and soon the carriage was blocked in the middle of the road.

Unable to move, Chu Mu seemed to have expected such a result and was not surprised. He took Chen Chen out of the carriage. This was the first time for Chen Chen to celebrate such a festival in ancient times. Normally, she would just stay bored in the attic at home.

Watching the lights of thousands of houses from a distance, from joy to silence. The general was away on an expedition, and she could only stay at home with her mother to take care of various affairs in the house.

At this time, all the singing, dancing, and juggling on the streets gathered together in one place. Lanterns and fireworks made the night in the city as bright as day. Countless vendors were shouting and soliciting business on the streets. Selling masks, lanterns, fruits and vegetables,

Small items that indicate peace and auspiciousness, perfumes, flowers, powdered fireworks, and all the pleasing gadgets are all available. The lively and festive atmosphere is very contagious, and there are children wearing fox masks and pierced hair.

, there are little girls holding beautiful lanterns, and there are also young men holding fans, reciting poems, painting, and playing with the market. The night scene in the prosperous age suddenly shakes out like a brilliant brocade, and all the magnificent brocades that the world can imagine are chaotically mixed.

At one place, it winds and turns, you enter and others stop, and the latitude and longitude of the north and south of Chujing are sprinkled with overwhelming luxury.

This was the happiest night Chen Chen had ever spent. The dark night sky was glittering with charming stars like diamonds. It seemed that he could reach them just by stretching out his hand.

"Girl, take a look around, do you like anything?" the vendor at the jewelry stall said enthusiastically to Chen Chen

Passing by a stall, Chen Chen spotted an item at a glance. Following Chen Chen's gaze, the store owner was very shrewd and said cheerfully, "Girl, you have such a good eye. This red bead chain is called Acacia Bean. Legend has it that it was because a Hunan girl was in love."

It is formed by your husband's tears dripping on the green beans. The redness of the green beans shows the importance of love. Therefore, men and women in love buy it to express their love. Girls can buy it as a gift to the young man next to you.

, I think you two are a perfect match."

When Chu Mu heard this, he was very pleased with it, and a rare smile appeared on his face. He raised his handsome eyebrows and said, "Shop, I want this beaded chain."

When the vendor heard this, he happily said, "Okay, okay. I'll wrap up the little ones for you."

He handed the bead chain to Chen Chen and said, "I'll bring it to you."

Chen Chen was slightly startled, and subconsciously stretched out his hand. He saw that the round beads the size of red beans matched perfectly on Chen Chen's fair and slender wrist.

She was very happy and the two looked at each other and smiled.

Suddenly there was an exclamation from the front, and the crowd couldn't help but rush forward.

"What's going on?" Seeing this, Chen Chen asked in confusion.

"Follow me and you'll find out." Chu Mu gently held Chen Chen's hand. The night wind was desolate and the cold moon was like a knife. Chu Mu carefully protected Chen Chen behind him.

It turns out that there was a custom in the Chu Dynasty during the Lantern Festival, which was to put out lanterns to pray for blessings. At this time, a large number of people would flock to the moat. People bought lanterns of various colors and wrote their blessings on the lanterns.

Lanterns flow freely along the river into the distance.

"Wait for me." After saying "Wait for me", Chen Chen walked away without waiting for a reply.

The crowd was getting bigger and bigger, and Chen Chen couldn't resist the momentum and was pushed away passively.

She was very worried when she couldn't see Chu Mu, so she had to stand on tiptoes and look forward. The crowd rushed in all directions and her figure was unsteady and about to fall backwards. At this moment, in a blink of an eye, she was high in the sky, a person.

The familiar figure held her tightly in his arms. Looking from above, he saw a dense crowd of people. Not far away, the lanterns shone brightly. Chu Mu looked at her with bright eyes, a faint smile, and black eyes like jade.

At this time, there was a loud bang, and everyone immediately looked up to the sky. They saw the sky full of fire, trees and silver flowers, and fireworks blooming, like a goddess dancing with long sleeves, and like a beautiful sunset, dazzling and intoxicating. (To be continued.)
