Chapter 944 Sending Lanterns
Chapter 944 Sending Lanterns
August 15th, Mid-Autumn Festival.
Although the Ji Mansion was bustling with activity during the family reunion, it was much quieter than in previous years.
Jiang Hao sat in the pavilion with a plate of mooncakes in front of him. Looking at the servants in the yard carrying lanterns and laughing, he couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.
"Miss, the emperor has specially set no curfew tonight. The inner and outer city gates are not closed. You can come and go freely to see the lanterns and the acrobatic performances. Don't you want to go and take a look?"
"Don't go."
Jiang Hao doesn't like to join in the fun.
The last time I went out to see the lanterns, I didn’t see any lanterns, but was followed by someone.
Hearing this, Xiangling pulled Xiangcao away, who looked disappointed. "If you want to go, go. Don't always drag the princess along. You know that the princess likes quietness."
In fact, Xiangcao didn't want to go. Seeing that Xiangling misunderstood, she quickly said, "I just saw that the princess was unhappy, so I wanted her to go out and cheer her up."
After that, the two maids fell silent.
The wedding is approaching, and there is no news from the Crown Prince in Yuzhou Prefecture, and no one knows whether he can make it back in time.
If I can make it back, that's fine. If I can't make it back...
The two girls were young and inexperienced, and had never heard of a situation where the groom did not come back to pick up the bride, and the bride went to marry in her husband's family on her own!
Changing the date is unlucky, but not changing the date would be too unfair.
Jiang Hao was staring at the moon in a daze, recalling how he had spent the Mid-Autumn Festival in previous years.
In fact, she has been almost alone for so many years, so it really doesn’t matter to her whether she celebrates the Mid-Autumn Festival or not.
But now, she seemed to have concerns.
"Who?"
Jiang Hao suddenly stood up, his face darkened, his brows slightly furrowed, and his eyes as sharp as a cat hunting at night.
Zhuifeng fell from the pavilion and surrendered with his hands: "I, I, I, it's me, Zhuifeng."
"Chasing the wind?"
Jiang Hao didn't recognize him.
Seeing that Jiang Hao was still looking at him, Zhuifeng quickly took a few steps forward, rubbed his face, and brushed the hair off his forehead: "Princess, it really is me."
Zhuifeng looked even sloppier than Xu Xing last time he came back from Jinzhou Prefecture. The beard on his face must have not been trimmed since he left Kyoto.
"Why are you back? Where is your master?"
Jiang Hao finally recognized him.
Zhuifeng quickly took off an object from his waist and placed it on the stone table: "I have finally arrived."
"lamp?"
Jiang Hao was knowledgeable and experienced, and after just a few breaths, he recognized what Zhuifeng had placed on the table.
"Yes, yes, yes. I didn't expect the princess to recognize him."
After Zhuifeng finished speaking, his throat was smoking. He grabbed the teapot on the stone table and poured water into his mouth. After drinking the whole pot, he continued, "My master is still on business in Yuzhou Prefecture and can't come back. However, my master is worried about the princess, so he specially asked his subordinates to bring back gifts for the princess."
This lamp was made by an old craftsman whom Xu Xing found out of his busy schedule.
Then, he sent Zhuifeng back at full speed.
Zhuifeng put down the teapot, and quickly took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Jiang Hao: "Everything I want to say to you is in this letter."
Jiang Hao took the letter but didn't rush to read it. Instead, he took the box light and asked the servants to prepare it.
She was quite curious about what kind of old craftsman's work was so successful that Xu Xing was so busy asking Zhuifeng to return it to her.
If it was a common thing, Xu Xing would not have gone to so much trouble.
Zhuifeng was afraid that the smell on his body would stink Jiang Hao, but he also wanted to see the stunning box light, so he simply jumped onto the roof and waited from a distance but with a clear view.
