Walking on the long and dark palace road, Feng Danyuan unexpectedly saw a few lights.
When I got closer, I discovered that it was a little palace maid who was secretly lighting the Kongming Lantern.
The little palace maid thought that she had just entered the palace not long ago, so she didn't know Feng Danyuan, and she didn't know that putting up Kongming lanterns in the palace would be severely punished.
"What are you putting these lanterns for?" Perhaps the Kongming lanterns floating in the sky looked very warm. Perhaps these Kongming lanterns reminded him of Wei Zi's favorite fireworks. Feng Danyuan chatted with the little palace maid for the first time.
The palace passage was very dark, and the little palace maid couldn't see Feng Danyuan's face clearly. She only felt that he was very tall. She thought he was a palace guard, so she lowered her head and said, "Mom and dad have contracted the plague. I don't know if I'm feeling well. Home."
It is a custom to put up Kongming lanterns to pray for blessings. Each lantern represents a wish. If it floats high, God will help make it come true when he hears it."
"I hope my father and mother will get better soon. During the Chinese New Year, our family can have a reunion dinner together..." The little palace maid's voice sounded a little sad.
Normally, Feng Danyuan would have scoffed: How can God be so free to help people realize their wishes every day?
But today, he believed the little palace maid's words.
"You have a lot of Kongming lanterns, can you give me one?" he asked politely.
"Okay." The little palace maid was very generous and handed a Kongming lantern to Feng Danyuan.
The dim light of the Kongming Lantern illuminated Feng Danyuan's face, which was too handsome to look like a mortal. The little palace maid's round eyes opened wide: God, is this a fairy from the sky?
Feng Danyuan released a Kongming Lantern with his own hands.
Looking at the slowly rising lights, he silently prayed to the gods and Buddhas in his heart: Let Wei Zi wake up. If she continues to sleep like this, her brain will really become sleepy.
"Thank you." After the Kongming Lantern turned into a small yellow dot, Feng Danyuan lowered his head and thanked the little palace maid.
The little palace maid looked at Feng Danyuan crazily, how could she still speak?
Feng Danyuan didn't wait for her reply and walked away.
"Go say hello and tell me that I put on the lights tonight." He whispered to Feng Su.
The little palace maid gave him a Kongming Lantern as a return gift.

The next day, King Yan went to court.
Before the plague in the palace ended, the emperor resumed his morning court. However, epidemic prevention was a protracted battle and the palace had not been completely unblocked. Therefore, King Yan entered the palace twice and could not go anywhere except Zichen Palace.
But today was different. If he didn't see Feng Danyuan and Feng Danning, his old mother might not let him enter the gate of Prince Yan's Mansion again.
"Fifth brother, when the palace becomes more peaceful, Dan Yuan and Dan Ning can go back." When the emperor saw that King Yan refused to leave, he was also the first and the second.
"Your Majesty, it is the duty of the two children to share the burden for the palace. It doesn't matter if they cannot go back. But my mother really cares about her very much. I just want to see them once and report to my mother that they are safe and sound, so that she can feel at ease." Yan
The king refused to let go even if he was beaten to death.
The emperor is really at a loss for words.
If it had been anyone else, he wouldn't have to say anything. If you don't see him, you won't see him.
But the person in front of him is King Yan, how can he have the nerve to show off as the emperor?
But he really couldn't hand over his two "safe and sound" nephews.
This matter can be hidden from the world, but not from King Yan.
After all, he is Feng Danyuan's biological father.
"Lü Ding, send someone to Lanxin Palace to invite the three princes." The emperor finally relented.
King Yan felt a thump in his heart: Why did he only call him Feng Danning? Was he afraid that he would quarrel with Feng Danyuan?
It has been said that he came here at the request of his old mother, would he be ignorant of the importance?
