"Today is the Lotus Festival. If Miss Ling is bored, you can go to the street and have a look. Many girls' homes on the street will put out lotus lanterns today." The housekeeper continued.
"Lotus Festival?" Ling Beibei suddenly became interested when the housekeeper talked about the Lotus Festival.
Are there many people on the street, and are there lotus lanterns?
It sounds like it would be fun.
"Is it fun? Can I go out?" Ling Beibei asked uncertainly.
She knew that if a servant of the palace wanted to go out, he had to get permission from the housekeeper.
Although she is a painter, she can still be regarded as working for the palace...
"The prince said that Miss Ling can go out and play all night today," the housekeeper said.
Hearing this, Ling Beibei was about to cheer when she heard the butler's voice: "I just want Guard Zhong to go with me."
"..." Ling Beibei was speechless. Do you want to bring Zhong Jiu with you?
Although Ling Beibei rarely interacts with Zhong Jiu, he always follows Lian Che, so he should be somewhat familiar with him.
He is a person who is like a piece of wood, rarely speaks and has few expressions.
It's as if he was born just to be Lian Che's bodyguard...
But having someone to follow you is better than not being able to go out.
Ling Beibei did not refuse, but agreed.
…
In the end, Ling Beibei could only follow Zhong Jiu out of the door.
The location of Prince Che's Mansion is not on the main street of Honglian Kingdom, but in a slightly quieter backing area.
Originally, the housekeeper said that he would prepare a carriage for Ling Beibei, but she refused. Although her legs were not healed yet, she could still cope with normal walking.
And this will make the wound heal faster.
Ling Beibei walked in front, and Zhong Jiu followed slowly behind, keeping a certain distance, not getting too close to Ling Beibei, but not too far away from her.
I don't know why, but I felt like there was Zhong Jiu following me, and Ling Beibei felt a little uncomfortable.
When we got to the main street, there were more and more people.
Ling Beibei looked at the many lotus lanterns placed on the street and immediately became interested.
"Do you have any money?" She has no money... and she is still in debt to Lian Che!
Hearing this, Zhong Jiu took off the purse from his waist and gave it to Ling Beibei without any reservation.
Ling Beibei couldn't help but sigh in her heart, this person really exists!
After taking the money, Ling Beibei confidently went to the stall selling lotus lanterns.
The lotus lanterns are beautifully tied and painted in bright red.
Ling Beibei's eyes were immediately attracted by one of the more unique lanterns that didn't look like a lotus, but rather looked like osmanthus petals.
"Girls are really discerning. This is a yellow lotus lantern. Most girls like to use it to seek marriage. It works every time!" Seeing Ling Beibei staring at the yellow lantern, the boss smiled and started selling his own lantern.
.
Hearing this, Ling Beibei paused.
Seeking marriage? Try everything and you will succeed?
"Many girls lit this lantern and ended up with the man of their dreams. They even sent a lot of wedding candies to my house on the wedding day!" Seeing that Ling Beibei seemed hesitant, the boss continued.
Now, his words did make Ling Beibei's heart... shaken a little bit.
The strange thing is that when the boss said these words, the first person that came to her mind was Lian Che...
That evil man with a beautiful face who likes to tease her...
