The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

Although Yang Qi chose to go out on the day of the Lantern Festival with the intention of seeing Yuan Ruiyuan's future actions, now that he was here and Heshan Street was so bustling, he might as well relax and feel the grandeur of the Tianyuan Dynasty.

After all, as a woman, there are not many opportunities to go out like this in the Tianyuan Dynasty.

In addition to the lantern shops, the Lantern Festival also has many snacks and acrobatic performances such as stilt walking, yangko dancing, Taiping drums, etc. Yang Qi saw a long line in front of a small stall in front of him and said, "Brother, what is that stall selling? It's so popular."

Yang Qing took a look and didn't know the answer: "Song Wei, go and see what the stall in front is selling."

Song Wei moved quickly: "Master, this stall sells red bean and fermented rice dumplings. It is said that they are very popular in Beijing these days."

"Red bean and fermented rice dumplings." He tilted his head. He had never heard of this snack before, but when he heard the name, he felt hungry: "Brother, let's go buy some too."

As he spoke, Yang Qi gently grabbed Yang Qing's collar and shook it, his eyes twinkling, looking particularly playful.

Yang Qing patted Yang Qi's head and said, "You." Then he gave Song Wei a few instructions, "Song Wei, go buy some. Buy two. Yang Qi and A Yao, both of you can try them."

There was no need to queue up. Yang Qi and his group just had to walk forward and ask the waiter to buy anything they saw that was interesting or smelled good. They bought things along the way, including baked naan, pepper cakes, spring rolls, etc. Yang Qi never stopped eating.

The food was a little dry, so Yang Qi took out the red bean and fermented rice balls that he had bought at the beginning. The red beans in them were cooked very soft, and the taste was very good, melting in the mouth. Yang Qi couldn't help but close his eyes, this was too satisfying.

This lantern festival was indeed very lively, with all kinds of special snacks from all over the world gathered together. No wonder Han Chu was looking forward to it so much. In his previous life, he was really stupid, locking himself in the house all day and never going out to see the world.

Like Yang Qi, A Yao also kept eating. The difference between the two was that Yang Qi had a small appetite and the portions of each dish were small, but A Yao's portions were large. Even so, A Yao didn't have any food left.

Yang Qing was helpless watching from the side, so he could only stop them: "If they keep eating, both of them will have indigestion. Yang Qi, you will be studying with Mr. Yang tomorrow. If you don't get a good rest today, you may not perform well tomorrow. Ah Yao, you will be practicing martial arts with your grandfather tomorrow!"

Yang Qing's words were very effective. Yang Qi and Yang Yao immediately put down the red bean and glutinous rice balls in their hands.

Yang Qing looked at the regretful expression on his brother and sister's faces and said, "Well, these foods are available every day. This light boat is the most worth seeing."

Yang Qi and A Yao looked at each other, and saw confusion in each other's eyes: "Brother, what is this light boat?"

Yang Qing left a mystery: "You will know when you get there."

A Yao had been practicing martial arts since he was young, so Yang Qing was not worried that his younger brother would be tired from walking. On the contrary, Yang Qi had been raised in the yard since he was young. He was afraid that his feet would hurt tomorrow after walking such a long distance today, so Yang Qing held Yang Qi in her arms.

Yang Qi did not refuse. If anything unexpected happened later, it would be safest to stay with his eldest brother.

In order for their masters to watch the lighthouse, the servants of Duke Song's mansion had already prepared seats.

Yang Qi looked at the lightships in front of him and said, "Brother, these are the lightships you were talking about. They are so beautiful."

Yangqi and Ayao are not tall, so in order to allow them to see more clearly, Yangqi is held by his eldest brother and Ayao is held by Song Wei.

Ah Yao also clapped his hands: "Big brother, Third sister, look, there is a big tiger here!"

On weekdays, there are only large ships in the moat. At night, no private ships are allowed to pass through the moat except for those on patrol.

But today, all kinds of boats, big and small, are in the moat, and each boat is hung with colorful lanterns. Some boats have animals on them, such as big tigers and little rabbits, while some boats have fairy peaches, houses full of gold and jade, and all kinds of other animals.

For a moment, Yang Qi and his group were all attracted by the light boats: "Big brother, fourth brother, look, there are people dancing on those boats?"

A Yao stretched his neck to look: "Third sister, where is she?"

Yang Qi pointed with his finger: "It's right there, do you see it?"

Ah Yao followed Yang Qi's finger and saw among the countless light boats: "It really is, big brother, there really are people dancing."

It was rare for Yang Qing to see his younger brother and sister so excited, so he looked in the direction Yang Qi pointed.

Yang Qing saw something wrong. There were suddenly many more lightships on the moat, and they were all heading towards one of the ships quickly.

Alarm bells suddenly went off in Yang Qing's mind, and he said to Song Wei and the servant beside him, "Protect the young master and the young lady, let's go." Then he looked around. There were more and more people gathering by the moat, and it would be very difficult to escape from them now.

Yang Qi was already paying attention to the lantern festival, so he was the first to notice that something was wrong with the light boat and pointed it out to his elder brother Yang Qing.

Yang Qi just wanted to see what Yuan Ruiyuan would do next, but he didn't want to lose his life here. The situation was not right, and he had to retreat immediately.

Yang Qing had already taken Yang Qi and A Yao back, but Yang Qi's eyes were fixed on the inconspicuous boat in the middle of the lake. It's too late, Yang Qi muttered to himself.

Dozens of light boats broke out of the cage, and inside them appeared assassins in night clothes. After a burst of piano music, all the men in black came out and jumped towards the target boat.

Yang Qi grabbed Yang Qing's hand and said, "Brother, it's too late. We have to go to a shop to take shelter first."

The moment the man in black drew his sword, Yang Qi and Yang Qing were both blinded by the sword light.

Yang Qing nodded: "Song Wei, hold me tightly, let's go to the restaurant in front and wait."

As the assassin attacked, there were waves of screams and the sounds of countless people falling into the water.

The calls that came one after another reminded Yang Qi of the fire scene in her previous life, and she began to tremble unconsciously. Feeling Yang Qi's fear in her arms, Yang Qing felt that her sister was frightened by this accident, and she tried harder to move forward.

Someone in the crowd kept shouting, "Run, run." Yang Qi knew that someone was taking advantage of the chaos to make everyone panic and try to cause greater chaos. The more chaotic this matter is, the better the effect the person behind the scenes wants to achieve.

Yang Qi bit her lips and tried to calm herself down. She had to calm down. She had to calm down. Yang Qi thought she was fully prepared and wanted to take the opportunity to see the situation more clearly. However, she didn't expect that the stimulation from her previous life was too great for her and she almost collapsed again.

Yang Qi watched the assassination on the moat from Yang Qing's arms. Although it was night, the scene of the light boat was clearly visible under the illumination of the lights.
