Soon, Yinli's men brought Huanbi and the others over.

The maids and old women were going crazy with anxiety.

Seeing Zhen Yuhuan standing there, holding a candied haws in her hand, the maid leading her rushed over and said, "Miss, Miss, are you okay?"

Zhen Yuhuan said: "I'm fine, it was the Seventeenth Prince who found me."

The maids and servants had never expected that the person in front of them was the son of Shu Fei, who was now the most favored concubine. They expressed their gratitude to Yin Li.

After Huanbi finished caring about Zhen Yuhuan, her eyes fell on Yinli.

Wow, he is so handsome!

Yinli thought for a moment and said, "It's inconvenient for the three young ladies to watch the lanterns on this long street. Why don't you come to the boat I chartered? Many people are releasing river lanterns there, and you can release lanterns and watch them at the same time."

Huanbi said loudly, "Okay."

Zhen Yuhuan also nodded.

They walked towards the river and ran into Wen Shichu.

Zhen Yuhuan's maid covered her mouth all of a sudden, "Oh, I forgot about Master Wen."

Wen Shichu had just come to Changjie to see the lanterns, and ran into Zhen Yuhuan's maid, so he also joined the search.

As a result, everyone forgot about him.

Yinli said: "Since we are friends, let's get on the boat together."

Yinli chartered a medium-sized cruise ship. The cabin was fully stocked with utensils, and in one corner there were many lotus-shaped river lanterns.

Standing on the boat and looking at the hustle and bustle on the other side, it can be said that "the road is filled with the fragrance of BMW and carved carriages. The sound of phoenix flutes moves, the light of jade pots turns, and fish and dragons dance all night long."

Zhen Yuhuan felt her nervousness subside.

Yinli said, "There are lantern riddles prepared at the stern. If you like any lantern, feel free to guess it."

After saying this, he thought again, they are still so young, they might not even recognize all the characters.

At worst he could just give the lamp to them later.

When I reached the stern of the ship, I saw three rows of lights, which were more exquisite than those on the long street.

Huanbi screamed and after looking for a while, she chose a rabbit lantern.

The maid took the lamp down for her.

Huanbi was dumbfounded when she looked at the riddle above.

"What does it say on it?"

Zhen Yuhuan came over to take a look and slowly recited, "A thousand shapes and images are still empty, the mountains are reflected in the water and hidden in the layers. Countless drought-stricken seedlings are about to wither, and strange peaks appear in the leisurely places."

"Why is it so long?"

Xiao Huanbi made a bitter face, and then said: "Sister Huan is amazing, she actually knows so many characters."

Zhen Yuhuan shook her head, "Godmother always asks you to study, but you always find something to do and try to avoid it."

Huanbi put her hands on her hips and said, "Studying is so tiring, I don't like it."

Seeing that Shen Meizhuang was also about to talk about herself, Huanbi quickly asked Zhen Yuhuan, "Sister Huan, what is the answer to this riddle?"

“It’s a cloud.”

Yinli looked at Zhen Yuhuan from the side, his eyes shining.

The riddles he prepared this time were quite difficult, and he originally wanted to invite his fourth brother, thirteenth brother and others to come over.

As a result, they went back into the palace.

I didn’t expect that this little girl could guess it right away.

A Jin congratulated Zhen Yuhuan, then took down the rabbit lantern and handed it to her.

Zhen Yuhuan immediately gave it to Huanbi, "Here, take it."

Huanbi happily agreed.

A Jin solved another riddle.

Shen Meizhuang said: "It can shed leaves in March, and bloom flowers in February. It can make thousands of feet of waves across the river, and thousands of bamboos lean against it."

“It’s the wind!”

Shen Meizhuang gave the lamp to Zhen Yuhuan, "Now I am your eldest sister, you all must have a lamp."

Little Shen Meizhuang's eyes fell on Wen Shichu, "Brother Shichu, let me guess one for you too."

Wen Shichu waved his hands, "You guys play, you guys play."

Zhen Yuhuan: I really want to send Brother Shichu away, but what can I do?

At this moment, Huanbi took down another riddle.

She read aloud, "There is a mountain on the mountain."

"Sister Huan, Sister Mei, I know these four words!"

Yinli asked, "What's the answer to the riddle? Have you guessed it?"

Huanbi shook her head.

Yinli asked, "What's the word? There's another mountain on top of a mountain?"

"Since you know the word, you can try to imitate it yourself or write it on your palm."

Wen Shichu watched from the side.

Although the Seventeenth Prince is only two years older than himself, he is quite good at coaxing children.

Huanbi gestured and said, "Yes!"

"Eh!"

Wen Shichu straightened his back at once, "Sister Huanbi, you called me?"

Everyone:...

Shen Meizhuang chuckled.

Wen Shichu blushed.

Yinli continued to coax the child, "You guessed it right, Huanbi, you are really smart."

Huanbi smiled brightly, "Sister Huan, Sister Mei, Huanbi is smart even without studying!"

Zhen Yuhuan snorted softly, smiling like a proud little fox, "I'm going to tell my godmother later."

"I'm also going to tell my godmother that my sister bullied me."

Shen Meizhuang laughed again.

Shen Meizhuang guessed an exquisite revolving lantern, then ran to Wen Shichu holding the lantern.

Wen Shichu looked at the little girl who was only slightly taller than his waist, took the lamp and smiled.

"Thank you, sister Mei Zhuang."

When the few people were tired of playing, they came to the side of the boat, and Yinli asked someone to bring all the lotus lanterns over.

Zhen Yuhuan's nanny said, "I have heard from others that the farther you place the lantern, the farther away you will marry. If you place the lantern closer, you will marry closer."

The three of them were still young and didn't hear what the nanny was saying at all. Getting married was still a long way off for them.

The three of them lowered the lotus lanterns down from the boat.

The three lotus lanterns floated down the water and gradually drifted away, but they were always in the same place.

The nanny didn't mention the distance, she just smiled and said that the three of them were very lucky.

"The three young ladies may marry in the same place in the future."

Huanbi said loudly: "Then we can be good sisters for life."

The three of them laughed again.

Being able to be good sisters for life sounds like a very happy thing.

After the lights were turned on, it was already late.

The boat stopped at the shore, and Yinli said, "I'll have someone send you three back."

When everything around him quieted down, the smile on Yinli's face still did not fade away.

"By the way, the one who took the beggar's photo might be a gang. There are quite a few of them. Dig deeper and don't let any of them go."

He rode back.

Suddenly, he heard a burst of crying.

"Dad, Dad, please wake up and look at me."

When I looked closely, I saw that it was a little girl, who was covered in dirt. The man lying on the ground should be her father.

Looks like he has no breath at all.

Yinli dismounted and went over to ask what was going on.

The little girl sobbed and told what happened to her that night.

"My father is a horseman. Just now, the master stopped the horse here and asked my father to look after it. Halfway through, my father said he had to relieve himself, but he never came back."

"I'll come back to find Daddy, and he'll be lying right here."

Yinli took a look and thought that the man must have died suddenly from an illness.

"Where is your master?"

"Master, Master came back and couldn't find Daddy. He said Daddy neglected his duties and wanted to punish him severely."

The little girl cried more and more as she spoke.

Yinli frowned, this master was too ruthless.

"Is there anyone else at home? I'll take you back first."

The little girl looked at Yinli and said, "My father and I are the only ones who depend on each other at home. Now that my father is dead... I don't know where to go. I have no home anymore."

"Have you signed the indenture?"

The little girl shook her head.

Yinli thought about it in his mind.

He still lives in the palace and has not yet moved out to set up his own residence. It might not be a good idea to bring her back to the palace. The palace is dangerous. If he doesn't keep an eye on a little girl, she might be bullied.

However, my fourth brother’s Changchun Garden has been almost expanded and has been renamed Yuanmingyuan.

There was no master there, so she could go in to work and save some money. When she was old enough, he would arrange for her to marry into a good family.

"Then are you willing to come with me? I'll arrange an errand for you."

The little girl nodded.

"What's your name?"

"Ye Lanyi, my name is Ye Lanyi."
