The Lantern Festival of the 41st year of Kangxi, there are still five days before I enter the palace.
While Ama 'er and Niang were entertaining the guests, I sneaked out from behind with Xiao Lian. I wanted to see what was the difference between the Lantern Festival of the Qing Dynasty and the modern Lantern Festival. In fact, if I had the chance, I would like to visit the Old Summer Palace. That imperial garden was so magnificent before the Eight-Nation Alliance trampled on it.
The streets were bustling with people, cheering and jumping everywhere. There were sounds of people buying and selling. The street was filled with rows of stalls with small lanterns hanging on them. The lights were red and green, illuminating the street as if it was daytime. I held Xiao Lian's hand and squeezed through the crowd. I walked around, but I didn't expect to bump into someone.
When I looked up, I saw a man dressed in men's clothing. He had one hand behind his back and was waving a fan with the words 'Tian Xingjian' written on it. When I looked closely, I saw fair skin, cherry-colored lips, and a beautiful face. With my many years of experience watching television, how could this little trick fool me? Wasn't she just a little beauty dressed as a man?
I stared at her and was lost in thought, but she deliberately used a fan to lift my chin. She pursed her lips and smiled proudly."Little girl, you bumped into this grandpa. Apologize. It's fine if you don't apologize.”
Little brat, you actually used this move on me. Since that's the case, I'll go with the flow and accompany you to the end. Let's see what tricks you have.
"Sir, if you bump into someone, that person will be yours. If the people on the street bump into each other, wouldn't they be your people?”
"Haha." After the girl who was disguised as a man laughed, she moved her face closer to my cheek and whispered into my ear,"I like you like this." I didn't expect the two of us to love acting so much.
"I didn't expect you to be such a fickle woman.”Who dared to speak rudely? Following the sound, I saw him again, the person who saved me in the forest. After saying this, the young man squeezed through the crowd and left. What? Running away after speaking rudely? If this was the modern world, this would be a personal attack. I would definitely arrest you.
"Hey, don't go. Give me back my innocence!”Annoyed, I pushed the crowd aside and chased after him. I'm not good at running, but I still have to run obstacles on such a long street. It's really infuriating! He, on the other hand, was as free as a snake in the crowd. His movements were agile. If he were a thief, he would definitely fool the police. Sigh, I was led around by the nose by him. Unintentionally, Xiao Lian lost me.
As I chased after him, the crowd gradually thinned out. From afar, I could see the youth sitting on the railing of the marble bridge. The railing was carved with delicate patterns. He turned his head and smiled at me, looking victorious. I chased after him and stood beside him. I threatened him with my usual tone of voice."Why did you say that I'm fickle? Don't think that just because you saved me, you can randomly attack me.”
"I didn't attack you." He stared at me and smiled confidently.
"In short, in short, I'm not that kind of woman. Didn't you see that the young master was a woman disguised as a man.”I stomped my foot in anger, pouted, and leaned against the railing.
"Is that so? Hmm, that's a good excuse." He lowered his head and smiled darkly. Then, he turned his head to look at the river under the bridge with lanterns floating in the air. His eyes were hazy.
"That's not an excuse, do you understand? Humph!"
"Was that acting?"
"Yes, it's acting.
"Yes, you admit that you're acting now.”The young man leaned confidently into my ear and whispered, pleased with his eloquence.
" You, you..." I went crazy. I had never seen anyone more eloquent than me during the interrogation. I instantly lost my mind and pushed him into the river. I stood at the bridgehead and looked up at the sky arrogantly.
" Help…Help…" The young man was floating in the river, his hands swaying and occasionally choking on water.
