The Lantern Festival is here as scheduled, and for the people all over the capital, it is a festive day for family reunions and family happiness.
But for Xie Qingyao, it means separation.
The day after the engagement on the fifth day of the lunar month, Xie Yan sent people to the Taifu's Mansion. Chen Hong also entered the palace to express his gratitude. Together they made the decision to leave the capital on the Lantern Festival.
Xie Qingyao and Xu Mingyue rode together, following Chen Hong and Yu's carriage. They sent the convoy more than a hundred miles out of the capital before tightening the reins.
The sun began to set in the west. They did not cry bitterly or be reluctant to leave. The two of them got off their horses and stood on the official road, watching the mighty team heading towards Lu County.
From then on, there was no one in the Dayu Dynasty who existed only for Xie Qingyao, Taifu Chen.
Since then, the Chen family of Lu County has completely escaped the chaos of the capital and returned to its rightful place.
Starting today, the head of the Chen family in Lu County will lead this thousand-year-old family towards the next thousand years.
No matter how the world changes, Lujun Chen's straight spine for the world's literati will never bend.
The carriage and horse completely disappeared from sight. When Xie Qingyao helped Xu Mingyue sit on the horse, he turned over.
No matter how warm the winter sun is, it can't cover up the biting cold wind, so this winter afternoon is still cold.
Riding her horse and raising her whip, her two sets of purple cloaks, one large and one small, were fluttered by the north wind. Xu Mingyue withdrew her gaze from Xie Qingyao, and a calm smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Everyone in the capital thought that sending the Lu County Chen family away from the capital was a way to cut off the power that Xie Qingyao controlled.
Everyone in the capital thought that Xie Qingyao, who lost the Chen family in Lu County, would never be able to stand up again and could only be reduced to a courtier struggling to survive under the imperial power.
But Xu Mingyue knew that the Chen family of Lu County was not only a help, but also a concern and shackles.
After today, Xie Qingyao can move forward more openly.
The city gate is in front of you, all the splendor in the sky fades away, and the full moon shines brightly everywhere.
There were many pedestrians in the city, and everything was filled with the joy of reunion. Xu Mingyue and Xie Qingyao jumped off their horses together and began to blend into the crowds, feeling the joy of thousands of bright lights.
Bustling can easily breed joy, and bustling can also easily highlight loneliness.
Xie Qingyao beside him did not show any sadness, but Xu Mingyue felt that Xie Qingyao was very pitiful.
Since he got up today, there is really only one man standing next to him.
He took a few steps towards Xie Qingyao and said, "Xie Qingyao, if you miss your grandparents in the future, we will go to Lu County to see them together."
Pulling on Xie Qingyao's clothes, Xu Mingyue whispered: "Let's go secretly."
Xie Qingyao took off the leather gloves on his hands and reached out towards Xu Mingyue: "Yueyue, are you cold?"
His hand has subconsciously fallen in the direction of Xie Qingyao's hand, but his cunning fox eyes are looking around, worried that his current move is too outrageous.
However, most of the men and women who fell in front of her had their clasped hands hidden under their cloaks.
The Lantern Festival is originally a day for unmarried men and women to go out and play together.
Moreover, she and Xie Qingyao are already engaged, and they will get married when her brother returns from Wu'an County.
The person in front of you is naturally cautious, but when facing him, subconscious fulfillment will always override caution.
"Yueyue, I always feel that if I sell you, you will count the money for me."
"Don't sell it. I have a lot of money. If you are short of money, just tell me. If I don't have enough, I will ask my second brother to get it."
Qiao smiled and chatted with Xie Qingyao, Xu Mingyue shook the hand held by Xie Qingyao: "Do you think I'm cold?"
"I don't know." Xie Qingyao leaned close to Xu Mingyue's ear and lowered his voice: "I'll know by touching it."
With that said, he took off Xu Mingyue's gloves.
Those generous and strong hands held Xu Mingyue tightly.
For people who are used to being in poor health, no matter how warm their hands are, they are naturally a bit cooler than those leather gloves.
But Xu Mingyue was upset by Xie Qingyao's actions and words.
Her words and actions just now were as if she insisted on hooking Xie Qingyao to touch her hand.
Feeling the wetness spreading from Xu Mingyue's palms, Xie Qingyao understood that Xu Mingyue was a little shy.
With a slight smile on his lips, Xie Qingyao handed the step that was not a step up: "Yueyue, I just wanted to hold your hand."
"Well, you insisted on holding me."
And if Xie Qingyao insists on it, Xu Mingyue will give it to him.
Walking along the bustling long street, Xie Qingyao saw that everyone else had lanterns in their hands, so he naturally wanted to buy one for Xu Mingyue.
While walking and looking around, Xie Qingyao spotted a vivid little fox lantern at a glance.
After handing the silver to the merchant, Xie Qingyao looked at Xu Mingyue holding the lantern, his eyes full of softness.
He felt that if he and Xu Mingyue had a child, they would probably be as clever and cute as a little fox.
But Xie Qingyao did not tell Xu Mingyue what he was thinking.
Every word that came out of his mouth would become something that had to be done when it fell into Xu Mingyue's ears.
His little moon is still young. She should enjoy the life that belongs to Xu Mingyue first, instead of becoming the mother-in-law of their child.
"Yueyue, actually I'm not sad, nor do I feel cold."
Gradually, I gradually embarked on a path that runs counter to the fireworks of the world: "I delayed my grandparents for several years. Now that they are gone, I feel a lot more at ease."
"Nonsense." He slapped Xie Qingyao several times with his gloved hand: "Since we are family members, there is no need to delay."
He squeezed Xu Mingyue's hand a little tighter and said, "Yueyue is really biased. Maybe next time she sees me killing people indiscriminately, she will feel that it is that person's fault."
"Of course it's the other person's fault."
Xu Mingyue looked up at Xie Qingyao and said seriously: "Since you came, you only kill the people you want to kill, not the people you want to kill."
The surroundings suddenly stopped, and Xie Qingyao stood there and put on the hat of Xu Mingyue's cloak.
The brim of the hat is wide and thick, just enough to cover Xu Mingyue's fox eyes.
The clear light of the bright moon filled the world, and the fox lantern was swaying in his hand. The person in front of him, who always kept his head raised, began to turn red on his cheeks.
It was not because of the cold wind, but because the piety in Xie Qingyao's eyes was too hot.
Even if you don't see it, it will still make you sweat, it's hot and hot.
