"Husband, husband! You can put river lanterns in front!"
After Gu Kaiwei's embarrassing episode, Bai Musheng and Zhu Menghuang soon arrived at the place where the lanterns were placed.
At this moment, there were already quite a number of people setting up river lanterns.
Although the Qujiang Pool was a man-made lake, it was directly connected to the Wei River outside Chang 'an City. Therefore, the water in the Qujiang Pool was also running water. These river lanterns would eventually flow into the Wei River along the water flow.
Bai Musheng looked around and soon found a few stalls selling river lanterns nearby.
Together with Zhu Menghuang, the two of them arrived at one of the stalls. When they saw a couple who looked like a couple, the boss appeared especially enthusiastic and swiftly handed a pen to Bai Musheng and Zhu Menghuang.
He only needed to write his wish on a specific piece of paper, then stick it on the river lantern and put it into the Qu River Pond.
Bai Musheng held the brush and pondered for a moment before writing-
Phoenix, phoenix, come to rest with me, and I can entrust my tail to be a concubine forever.
This poem was from Sima Xiangru's Phoenix Seeking Phoenix.
Bai Mucheng didn't have a good impression of Sima Xiangru. It was true that he was in love with Zhuo Wenjun when he was young and down, but later on, Sima Xiangru also had thoughts of taking in concubines because of his rising status.
Although it wasn't impossible for a man to take in a concubine, if one compared all these actions with the various oaths that the two had made before, Sima Xiangru seemed somewhat hypocritical.
Zhuo Wenjun had secretly learned from Sima Xiangru that there was no memory between them and that they wanted to take a concubine. In his grief and indignation, he wrote the Song of the White Head. Although Sima Xiangru felt ashamed after reading it and gave up the idea of taking a concubine and the two of them stayed together, it was still unknown whether the twists and turns had really left no grudges between them.
However, all these didn't affect the poem itself.
On the other side, Zhu Menghuang was holding a brush in her hand. She was a little confused.
She was hot-headed and brought Bai Musheng over to light the river lanterns. However, when she started writing her wish, she suddenly thought of something.
Her handwriting was no different from a dog crawling.
If she really wrote it out and let Bai Musheng see it, her nickname of 'Chang' an's number one talented lady 'would probably be stripped off on the spot.
[What should we do…?!]
[Why don't we just stop writing?]
[I can't even bring myself to say this!】
After Bai Musheng wrote this sentence, he looked at Zhu Menghuang with a faint smile.
"Huang 'er, are you done?”
Shocking!
Zhu Menghuang was shocked. She swallowed her saliva and forced a smile."Husband, I was still thinking…about that, husband, you turned your head!”
"Why?"
"…I'm shy!”
Zhu Menghuang's eyes were watery, as if she was really shy.
Bai Musheng didn't tease her too much. He nodded and really picked up his note and pasted it on the river lantern.
Zhu Menghuang heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that he was not looking at her. However, she frowned again.
[What are you writing?]
[I don't understand at all…Why
don't…I draw a phoenix and a dog on it?]】
"…???"？”
Sensing that Zhu Menghuang had been secretly observing him, he simply picked up the river lantern and walked a few steps forward.
"Huang 'er, write slowly. I'll wait for you here.”
Phew…
Zhu Menghuang let out a breath and immediately began to write.
Shua, shua, shua, a duck appeared on the note.
"This little lady, your drawing of this duck is really beautiful.”
The shop owner looked over and exclaimed in surprise.
Zhu Menghuang's face instantly turned red and white.
[This is a phoenix! Not a duck!]
[Damn it!]
Gritting her teeth, Zhu Menghuang quickly drew a dog next to the phoenix and pasted the note on the river lantern. She picked up the lantern and ran to Bai Musheng.
"Husband, husband, let's go light the river lanterns!”
When the two of them arrived at Qujiang Lake, Bai Musheng squatted down and placed his lantern on the lake. He then looked at Zhu Menghuang, who was hiding her lantern, and accidentally caught a glimpse of the note with a drawing of a duck and a dog.
He couldn't help but pout.
It seemed that she could forget about receiving a sachet personally made by her wife like other men in this life.
With her drawing skills, it was easy to imagine that she would definitely not be able to show off her embroidery skills.
After the lanterns were released, Zhu Menghuang stood up and held Bai Musheng's hand with a charming smile.
"Husband, let's go ~"
Without waiting for him to speak, she pulled Bai Musheng and left the Qujiang Lake.
Looking at the sky and sensing the condition of her body, Zhu Menghuang began to look around.
[I have to find a place to prepare for nirvana in half an hour…]
】
Zhu Menghuang's eyes suddenly lit up.
There were many people gathered in front of him, as if they were watching a performance.
"Husband, let's go and take a look!”
Bai Musheng pinched Zhu Menghuang's face and let her do as she pleased.
"Alright."
The two of them arrived at the periphery of the crowd. The guards that Bai Musheng had brought with him also came over and started to pretend that they were ordinary people. They squeezed into the crowd, but they also gave Bai Musheng and Zhu Menghuang a space to move forward.
Bai Musheng held Zhu Menghuang's hand and walked to the front of the crowd.
Coincidentally, a Persian merchant was performing a snake dance.
The Persian merchant held the bone flute horizontally to his mouth, and the ferocious poisonous snake in the cage twisted with his flute, causing the people around him to cheer.
[Tsk tsk! Not bad, not bad! This is a good opportunity!]
Zhu Menghuang looked at the venomous tongue and smiled.
This left her with some effort.
Bai Musheng looked at Viper for a while before his gaze landed on the Persian merchant.
He had a thick turban on his head, and his head was lowered. The light was dim, and his face could not be seen clearly.
However…
Bai Musheng sniffed and narrowed his eyes.
(Interesting…)
This was not a Persian merchant.
While the performance was going on, Zhu Menghuang suddenly moved her feet slightly and secretly flicked her fingers.
The poisonous snake seemed to have been stimulated by something. It suddenly went berserk and pounced towards the crowd in front of it.
"Ahhhhh-!!!!”
Frightened, the crowd immediately panicked and fled in all directions.
Zhu Menghuang secretly patted a few people to get them to stand between her and Bai Musheng. In the end, the distance between the two of them grew further and further.
"Husband…husband…!!!”
Zhu Menghuang chuckled after she called out to him. She pulled down her mask and sneaked away.
Aining and Zhan Zhao quickly controlled the situation and protected Bai Musheng. Zhan Zhao immediately said,""You guys! Go and protect Madam! You must find Furen!"
The surrounding people immediately agreed.
Bai Musheng stood where he was and looked in the direction where Zhu Menghuang disappeared.
He glanced at the Persian merchant who was apologizing again and again, then snorted coldly.
"Zhan Zhao, let's go and find Madam!”
With that, Bai Musheng left in a hurry with a worried look on his face.
Only then did the Persian merchant lift his head slightly. He looked at Bai Musheng's departing back with a deep gaze and let out a low laugh.
