The daughter of the Marquis is too delicate, the abstinent prince pinches her waist and loves her

Chapter 121: Tonight is not peaceful
"The first prize for guessing the riddles is given to you!" In the brocade box held in Mu Jiyue's hands, the round luminous pearl shone brightly.

There was a hint of mischief in her delicate eyes. At the bottom of the box, where Ye Jinchen couldn't see it, there was a poisonous insect lying there, waiting for its opportunity to strike.

Ye Jinchen frowned and didn't intend to pay attention. Just as he was about to walk around her, Lu Changxuan suddenly appeared and bumped into his side.

Ye Jinchen took a step to the side and frowned, "What are you doing? You are so reckless."

Lu Changxuan was shaking his wine gourd, his face slightly flushed, and he seemed a little drunk.

His elbow was placed on Ye Jinchen's shoulder, but Ye Jinchen immediately shook it away in disgust, and his shaky body staggered.

He chuckled and said, "Stingy guy."

The man's voice was slightly lazy. He was holding a string of candied haws on a peach wood sword. He looked at Mu Jiyue meaningfully and said, "Princess Qinxue, can I borrow your little poisonous insect to play with you?"

Mu Jiyue frowned and asked, "What?"

Lu Changxuan raised the corner of his lips, and the talisman paper on the tip of the sword "snapped" against the brocade box. The poisonous insect hidden underneath instantly turned into a sugar painting and fell down.

He took it in front of him, looked at Mu Jiyue with a smile in his eyes, and in front of her, he picked up the butterfly candy painting and bit off half of its wings.

Mu Jiyue reached out to touch, but found that there was nothing underneath the brocade box.

She gritted her teeth angrily and met Lu Changxuan's eyes, only to see that he was smiling uninhibitedly, and his dark eyes, despite his drunken state, were clearly very sober.

This Lu Changxuan has ruined her plans for the second time!
How advanced is this man? He can handle the poison that even Sheng Yunqing couldn't handle so easily...

Sheng Yunqing let out a long breath, folded his arms and looked at her, with a smile that was full of hidden meaning and teasing, and said, "Princess Qinxue is so impatient? It's only a few days, can't you bear it?"

Mu Jiyue was furious. As Sheng Yunqing said, she was indeed anxious. Today was the Lantern Festival in Zhuluo Country, and she naturally wanted to be with Ye Jinchen. Even if Ye Jinchen could not fall in love with her so quickly, she wanted to weave a dream for herself tonight.

The love poison that I had been refining for many days was so quickly disturbed by that Taoist priest!

If that stinky Taoist priest hadn't appeared out of nowhere, the one being neglected now would be her, Sheng Yunqing!

Ye Jinchen frowned and stared at Mu Jiyue, saying, "What do you want to do now?"

Mu Jiyue pouted innocently, raised her hand to pull his sleeve, pretended to be playful and acted coquettishly towards Ye Jinchen, and said: "Brother Chen, Jiyue was just joking, why are you so serious?"

Ye Jinchen coldly shook her hand away, stared at her sinisterly, and said, "Don't touch me casually."

After he finished speaking, he took Sheng Yunqing's hand and walked around her and left.

Mu Jiyue felt a blockage in her heart, she gritted her teeth secretly, then smiled again, followed his departing back and ran over, saying: "Okay, okay, I won't touch you, don't be angry, brother Chen."

"Fairy sister, the puppet show has begun!" Su Lan ran to Sheng Yunqing's side and pointed at the lively crowd in front and said excitedly.

Sheng Yunqing chuckled and said, "No hurry, I've reserved a seat." She leaned over and whispered in Su Lan's ear, "I've read your fortune and it's not going to be a safe night. You and your senior brother should be more alert."

Hearing this, Su Lan regained her serious expression and frowned, saying, "Don't worry, I won't put Fairy Sister in danger."

Prince's Mansion, Underground Palace.

The bronze animal heads were breathing out cold mist in the darkness, and several palace lanterns were hanging on black iron chains.

The cool air cut off the hustle and bustle outside. The candles burned in the wind, making a crackling sound, dispelling the dim light underground. The ground was covered with black ice rocks made of thousands of years of cold stone. Zhixing was wearing a pure white robe, kneeling quietly, with her smooth black hair winding and hanging on the ground.

The heavy stone door was pushed open, and the firelight outside the door reflected a tall and slender figure.

"I have not refused you to go out. On the Lantern Festival, which happens once a year, you can go with me."

Zhi Xing did not turn around, her cold voice echoing in the underground palace: "Your Highness, it is enough for you to have the Crown Princess accompany you, there is no need to bring this burden with you."

Ye Jingnian frowned and said, "You are my maid. If you don't follow me, what are you doing here?"

Zhixing looked up at the window above. There was a full moon hanging high in the sky, surrounded by some dark clouds, vaguely covering it.

"Your Highness, Zhixing is busy tonight and will not go out."

Ye Jingnian looked at her back, a trace of indifference flashed across his eyes. He just snorted lightly and left.

"up to you."

The heavy stone door closed, and Zhixing threw the three copper coins in his hand to the ground, making a crisp sound.

She looked down at the hexagram on the ground, her eyes sinister as she said, "Your Highness, tonight, Zhixing will always be loyal to you."

After she finished speaking, she took out a porcelain bottle from her bosom and poured out a pill. Her palms were shaking slightly, but she still mustered up the courage to close her eyes and swallow it.

He exhaled gently, and the heat surging through his body dispelled the severe cold air that was eroded by the ground.

Zhixing murmured a spell, and the bronze mirror placed on the ground was suspended in front of her, and the smooth mirror surface reflected her cold and fair face.

Outside the window, when the first Sirius lit up, she bit her tongue, tapped the blood with her finger, and touched the smooth bronze mirror.

It turned out that the mirror reflecting the beauty was rippling, reflecting Ye Jinchen's face under the bustling lights.

Zhi Xing's eyes were dark: "This Ziwei fate will return to the East Palace tonight."

In Xuanwu Street, children holding rabbit lanterns walked through the crowd laughing, and their silver bell-like laughter shattered the lights on the street.

The three characters "Lang Yu Xuan" were written in gold on the plaque made of golden nanmu.

Seeing Ye Jingnian lost in thought, Bai Muling smiled and said, "Your Highness, the jewelry in Langyuxuan is also liked by the empress in the harem. Would Your Highness like to buy some for me?"

Ye Jingnian walked into the store without saying a word.

When the shopkeeper came forward, Yan Chuan behind him took out the jade pendant. He bowed timidly and said, "It turns out that it is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who has come to visit. Is there anything I can help you with?"

Bai Muling looked at the various gorgeous jewelry in the store, her eyes fixed on a vermilion lacquered wooden box. In the cushion, a nine-tailed phoenix hairpin made of gold wire was raised high as if ready to fly, its phoenix eyes inlaid with a pair of pigeon blood stones. When the candlelight flickered, the red color actually flowed between the feathers.

"This is the 'Danwu Qihuang' that the imperial concubine wore before." The female craftsman held up the phoenix hairpin with peacock blue silk, and the twelve strings of oriental pearl tassels hit each other like broken jade. "Look at the exquisite filigree workmanship on the feather tip, it suits the imperial concubine very well."

Bai Muling raised her lips in satisfaction, turned around and was about to speak to Ye Jingnian, but saw him take out a piece of rice paper from his arms and unfold it, and said in a cold voice: "Where is this thing?"

The shopkeeper examined it carefully, nodded knowingly, and said, "I'll get it right away."
