127, Jinjiang Literature City debut(2/2)
Queen Zhou's eyes flashed on one side without saying much.
Pei Yan handed Tao Ti in Linglong's hands, his eyes were cold, but his voice was gentle and plain, "Take good care of the Crown Princess."
Linglong's heart sterned and said firmly, "Yes."
Tao Ti left with Linglong.
Pei Yan stared at their leaving figures until he couldn't see them, then he quietly withdrew his gaze, pulled the corners of his mouth, and continued to maintain a polite and gentle smile.
The banquet was still lively, with silk, bamboo, sheng, singing and dancing, and laughter and laughter while drinking and chatting. Everyone was full of expectations, waiting for the coming New Year.
...
Tao Ti walked out of the hall drunkenly. When the cold wind blew, she shuddered and her head was so cold that it was a little clear.
After she sat in the sedan chair with windshields around her, she relaxed, tightened her jade-colored cloak on her body, and lazily closed her eyes to rest.
I don’t know how long it took, Linglong whispered, “Crown Princess, we’re here.”
Tao Ti's head gently knocked onto the sedan chair, woke up, subconsciously raised her hand and touched the corner of her mouth, feeling sleepy.
Linglong helped her back to the bedroom. The palace people unloaded beads, carried warm water, handed the veils, and held hot tea. Tao Ti lay lazily on the couch, and was served by the palace people.
After about half an hour, she finished washing and finally lay on the bed and returned to the warm bed.
In a daze, she had a dream.
In the dream, she watched fireworks with Pei Yan and built snowmen. A bell rang in the distance. She hugged Pei Yan happily and said to him "Happy New Year" immediately.
He bent down and kissed her on the forehead, and said to her "Happy New Year".
In an instant, the rumbling fireworks bloomed between the dark sky, shining and bright.
Rumble...
Boom-
The fireworks became louder and louder, and were shockingly louder. Taoti was startled. When she looked up, she saw a huge meteor hit.
She screamed in fear, "Ah!"
Suddenly, I opened my eyes. In front of me was a curtain of lotus green embroidered red plums. She covered her quilt and a layer of fine sweat oozed out from her forehead.
Linglong hurriedly asked outside the curtain, "Crown Princess, what's wrong with you?"
Taoti gasped and said softly, "It's okay, I've had a dream."
After saying this, she pricked her ears and frowned, "What's the sound outside? Why is it rumbling? It's so scary."
Linglong hesitated for a moment and replied, "It should be the movement of fireworks."
Setting off fireworks?
"So, New Year's Eve has passed, and it's the first day of the Lunar New Year?"
Linglong said, "It's not here yet, but it's almost there."
Tao Ti lifted the curtain, poked out her little head, and said softly, "Linglong, pour me a glass of water."
Linglong hurriedly went to pour tea. When she walked around the screen and came back from the outside, she saw that the princess was already walking to the window with her sleeping shoes.
Linglong was startled and said worriedly, "Crown Princess, why are you standing by the window and catching a cold carefully?"
Tao Ti reached out and patted her forehead. Did she get hallucinations when she was drunk?
There were obviously no fireworks in the sky, but the sky was red in the distance, as if a demon had emerged from the sky.
But the muffled "bang bang" sound from afar was very obvious, making people feel nervous.
"Linglong, look, that direction should be Tai Chi Hall, right? What's wrong there?" Tao Ti pointed at the place where the red light soared into the sky.
Linglong hurriedly came forward to look, and looked shocked, "Crown Princess, wait a moment, I will ask someone to go out and inquire."
Tao Ti nodded and sat down slowly on the couch with a teacup.
Not long after Linglong left the house, she heard the sound of a little eunuch outside, "No, no! There is water flowing from the Tai Chi Palace!"
A vigil palace maid asked in a panic, "Why are you so busy?"
The little eunuch cried, "It seems that some riots have entered!"
There was a hustle and bustle outside the house.
In the room, Taoti's hand holding the teacup shook, and half a cup of warm tea poured out, wetting her soft nightgown.
Her face was pale, and her crow-like eyelashes were trembling.
Walking in the water? Tragic soldiers?
