    Mengdie hadn't experienced such a crowded scene for a long time, and she felt a little dizzy for a while. Fortunately, Ling Zimo had been holding her hand tightly and protecting her in his arms from time to time, otherwise she might have lost her.

    After finally walking to a slightly wider place, Ling Zimo was worried that she was not used to it, so he turned to look at her face: "Today is the Lantern Festival, that's why it's so lively. After walking for a while, are you tired?  Take a break?"

    Mengdie had already regained her strength at this time, and shook her head with a smile: "I'm not tired, it's good to be so lively."

    Ling Zimo smiled reassuringly and said, "That's good, there will be fireworks later! Let's go back after watching." After that, he pointed to a lantern riddle not far away and said: "I know that the princess has read poems a lot.  The book is brilliant in writing, why don't we go and guess the lantern riddles and win him some prizes?"

    Mengdie pursed her lips and smiled, and readily agreed.

    According to the folk custom of Dazhou, many merchants set up stalls during the Lantern Festival, but they did not buy or sell this night.  As long as you guess the riddles correctly, you can get rewards.

    At this time, the two of them stepped forward and saw that the lantern riddles of this family seemed to be quite difficult to guess. There were many people thinking hard, but few guessed correctly, but the prizes given by the boss were not unusual.

    Mengdie looked at it, and saw a jade ring finger in the head of the lottery, which was shiny and emerald, and it was obviously made of excellent jadeite.  Then he asked the boss: "You jade finger, which lantern riddle is it right?"

    The boss is a man in his fifties, with an appearance of amiable fortune. Hearing her question, he smiled and replied: "Young master has really good eyesight. This jade wrench finger is the first lottery of our store this year. Please, sir."  Look at the lantern at the top, the riddle on it has been unsolved for five consecutive years!"

    Mengdie and Ling Zimo looked up, and saw a streamer tied to the lantern with a few lines of small characters written on it.  Looking at it intently, it reads: "Flowers are not flowers, fog is not fog, come in the middle of the night, go at dawn. Come like a spring dream for a long time, and go like a morning cloud without a place to find."

    Ling Zimo frowned suddenly: "What is this? It's neither night fog nor morning glow, could it be a ghost?"

    Meng Die covered her lips and smiled.  But the boss hurriedly waved his hand and said: "My lord, don't guess, there are no ghosts in this world! During the Lantern Festival, we can't embarrass everyone with such a lantern riddle!"

    Among the surrounding crowd, many people were also guessing this lantern riddle. At this time, some people said: "It's snow!" Some people said: "It's the moon!" Some people said: "Is it a dream?"

    Mengdie bowed her head and thought for a while, then said softly: "I guess, this is autumn frost."

    The boss was stunned for a moment, and suddenly his face couldn't hide his joy, and he said loudly: "Young master is really smart! It's autumn frost! But please tell me, why is it frost?"

    When everyone heard that she had guessed the answer, there was an uproar, and then they all fell silent, wanting to hear the reason.

    ? Mengdie smiled, and said in detail: "The frost is like flowers but not flowers, and the frost is white like fog but not fog. It takes shape in the middle of the night and disappears at sunrise. It's like spring dreams that don't last long, and it seems that the morning clouds have no place to find."

    The surrounding people cheered in unison.

    Under the eyes of everyone, Ling Zimo couldn't hold Mengdie in his arms, so he could only gently pinch her hand, and whispered in her ear: "I knew you would be able to guess it. That finger pull, is it?"  Didn't it come to me?"

    But Mengdie didn't hear it, just smiled and said nothing.  He took the jade wrench finger from the boss, thanked him, and put it in his arms to put it away.

    Now that they won the jackpot, they were full of satisfaction, and the two of them were about to leave when they suddenly heard someone in the crowd say "Hey", and then said: "Isn't this Prince Yu?"  yes!"

    Ling Zimo followed the sound and couldn't help crying secretly.  It turned out that the ones who recognized him were none other than the three geisha from Piaoxianglou, where he often went.  Probably taking the Lantern Festival today, I also came out to watch the lights.  He usually goes to eat flower wine, but he pretends to be flirtatious, deceiving others, and acting on occasion, but at this time, he absolutely doesn't want Mengdie to see this.  At this time, I had to pretend that I didn't hear it, and hurriedly pulled Mengdie to leave.

    The three of them were already approaching.

    One of them, Hongxiu, was the woman who recognized him. At this moment, she gave a slight blessing and said with a coquettish smile, "Your Highness hasn't been to Piaoxiang Tower for a long time!"

    Ling Zimo was anxious in his heart, and glanced at Mengdie, seeing her bewildered face, he felt a little relaxed.  At this time, I couldn't avoid it, so I could only smile lightly: "So it's the red-sleeved girl, why don't you come out to watch the lights today?"

    Hongxiu looked at him with resentment and anger: "Since the prince is not coming, the slaves will naturally have nothing to do!" The other two women also laughed coquettishly and foolishly.

    Ling Zimo coughed, feeling embarrassed.I don't know how to proceed.

    At this time, Hongxiu saw Mengdie again, and a look of amazement flashed in his eyes: "This young man is really handsome, why have I never seen him before? When will you come to Piaoxiang Tower with the prince" He said  He wanted to come and hold her hand.

    Ling Zimo couldn't bear it anymore, he pulled Mengdie to the other side, and said in a hurry: "I have something to do today, don't let it go!" Then he pulled Mengdie and strode away.

    Hongxiu froze for a moment, and shouted twice: "My lord! My lord!" Seeing Ling Zimo as if he hadn't heard of it, he didn't turn his head back.  She and the other two looked at each other in dismay, and after a while she asked in doubt: "Could it be that King Yu has changed his sex now, and he likes men?"

    Fortunately, Ling Zimo had already gone far away, so he didn't hear this, otherwise he might vomit blood.

    Ling Zimo just dragged Mengdie away in a hurry, only to hear a muffled laugh behind him.  Looking back, Mengdie was already laughing so hard that she couldn't straighten up, so she had to stop and look at her awkwardly.

    Although Mengdie had never been to a brothel or seen a prostitute, she couldn't hide the aura of dust on the three of them just now. She only took a second look, and she knew it in her heart.  Seeing that Ling Zimo's usual leisurely demeanor was completely gone, and his face turned red and white, he couldn't help but feel like laughing.  But he was afraid that Ling Zimo would not show up when he came down, so he had to hold back.  Walking away at this time, I couldn't hold back anymore, and laughed.

    Laughed for a while, but managed to hold it back, looked up at him with embarrassment, and couldn't help laughing immediately.  This time, he lost his temper with laughter and provoked a big cough.

    Ling Zimo looked at her helplessly, laughing and coughing, finally sighed, supported her, patted her on the back, and said angrily: "You don't have to be happy after seeing my joke, right?"  Then look around.  After all, this place is still on the street, and among the people coming and going, someone has already paid attention to them.

    Only then did Mengdie try her best to hold back her smile, and the two walked slowly towards a secluded place.

    As the lights faded away and the voices of people faded away, he held her hand and walked quietly.

    "Die'er, I'm actually not" Ling Zimo stopped, and finally couldn't help but want to explain.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
