The curtain was opened, Wei Cailing handed two bunches of sugar-oiled fruits in, looked at Shi Yunqi, and asked again, "What do you want to ask Mr. Shi?"
Shi Yunqi's face flushed, and he tried to stay calm. "I'm asking... when can we leave for Beijing? We still have to watch the Lantern Festival tonight, so don't delay us."
Wei Cailing said, "It's ready, we can set off now."
Shi Anxia only smiled faintly and didn't make any noise, nor did he suggest changing cars so that the two of them could be alone.
She doesn't want her brother to become a person who has no independent opinions and only obeys orders. She should solve her own affairs by herself, and no one can take his place.
In the evening, a few people ate sugar-oiled fruits, walked and played, and then returned to the capital and went to the long street outside Furong Lantern Tower.
At that time, there was already a flow of people, and the street lights were like daylight.
During the Lantern Festival, there is no curfew in the capital, the boudoir is free, and the houses are brightly lit. The snow stopped and the wind stopped, and a full moon filled the sky with a faint light.
When Anxia was about to get off the carriage, Bei Hui said from outside the curtain, "Girl, the chief of guard told you not to get down yet while he went to buy some masks for everyone to wear."
It's time for Xia to smile. It’s time to wear a mask when traveling during the Lantern Festival.
After a while, Chen Yuan bought a large pile of masks and distributed one to each person.
When the portion was given, An Xia had an old woman's mask in her hand.
The mask is meticulously made and the color is old. The wrinkles are deep, the nasolabial folds on both sides of the nose are deeper, and the mouth is flat, looking very kind and peaceful.
Bei Hui complained, "What? There is obviously a better-looking mask, but the head guard said this one belongs to the girl."
Shi Anxia didn't care, carefully stroking the wrinkles of the mask with his hands, and said gently, "This is very good."
The appearance of an old woman, paired with her girlish bun, just doesn't look right.
She called Hong Que and randomly changed her hair into an old woman's hair. She then turned her white cloak over and put on a black one. She was dressed like this. As long as she didn't look closely at the skin on her hands, she would look like an old woman.
She put on the mask and lifted the curtain and came out, and found that Chen Yuan was wearing an old man's mask, looking very funny.
The old man's mask also had a kind expression, and the slightly raised corners of his mouth, the white beard on his chin, and the white raised eyebrows were all very realistic.
The moment the two of them looked at each other through the masks, Chen Yuan said hastily, "I'm going to do something first." He turned around and left.
Shi Anxia wanted to say, "Be careful and retreat when the situation goes wrong."
But in the end it was not too late.
In the bustling streets, the dim and blurry lights outline the tall and tall back of the man.
Even in the crowd, he stood out.
Shi Anxia was in a daze for a moment, feeling like she had seen this scene somewhere.
Especially in the brightly lit place, the man suddenly looked back, and the smile in the old man's mask flashed through her mind.
It’s just that the streets are full of overlapping masks, and every one of them looks familiar.
At this moment, someone shouted, "Get out of the way... His Royal Highness Prince Jin is here!"
This guy!
He came as soon as he came, and he had to be so high-profile, for fear that others would not know that he was coming!
The people gave way one after another and knelt on both sides to welcome him, "His Royal Highness, King Jin, may you be blessed!"
