During the banquet, everyone saw that His Majesty was in a good mood, so there was another toast to congratulate him. The banquet continued all night long with festivity.
On the other hand, Lin Jingyuan, who had sneaked out with a small food box, also met Lin Feilu at the agreed place.
He was a little happy, and moved a little faster, but when he ran to her, he saw her watching the night in the distance, and she did not even notice him when he came.
Lin Jingyuan stretched out his hand and shook the box before her eyes, “Little Lu!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe was startled, and when she saw him back to her senses, she pursed her lips and smiled, “Brother Jingyuan, you’re finally here.”
Lin Jingyuan sat down next to her and quickly took out the things, “Eat this, it’s still hot, I picked the dishes that tastes good.”
Lin Feilu nodded, took the chopsticks and ate it, and said softly to him after tasting, “It’s delicious, thank you, Brother Jingyuan.”
She said that, but Lin Jingyuan felt that she seemed to be preoccupied with something on her mind. A few days ago, she was obviously looking forward to the banquet. Now that she had tasted it, why did she not seem to be happy?
He could not help but ask, “Little Lu, what’s the matter with you? Did someone bully you?”
Lin Feilu picked up the food with her chopsticks. She pursed his lower lip, raised her eyes and glanced at him. She wanted to say something, but she stopped and just grinned reluctantly. She whispered, “No, it’s just a little bit cold.”
Although he was very nervous, he still realized that she was not telling the truth, but if Little Lu was reluctant to tell the truth, he did not press her any further. He only replied, “Then eat! I’ll take you back to your palace when you have finished eating!”
Lin Feilu nodded obediently.
The heavy snowfall on New Year’s Eve had stopped the next morning. On the first day of the New Year, the sky was clear. This was an auspicious sign.
Everyone stayed up all night on New Year’s Eve, so everyone only went to bed early in the morning. Since no one would visit Mingyue Palace, Xiao Lan did not get up in a hurry, and everyone slept in together.
Unexpectedly, around noon, someone was knocking on the gates of Mingyue Palace.
Qingyan, who was keeping watch last night, hurriedly put on her clothes to open the door, and was startled when she saw who the visitors were.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStanding outside the door was a eunuch. She recognized this eunuch as the personal attendant of the emperor. He was followed by a group of palace servants, holding food boxes in their hands. The eunuch smiled and said, “Good morning. His Majesty has gifted a meal to the Fifth Princess. The food is freshly made, and it is still hot.”
Qingyan’s eyes widened.
Fortunately, she was an experienced palace maid and did not lose her manners, as she hurriedly ushered them inside, then hurriedly went to report to Xiao Lan.
Xiao Lan was also shocked. She hurriedly washed up and dressed herself. When she went out, dozens of dishes were already set on the table. The eunuch stood next to the door as he smiled and said, “We shall leave now so we won’t disturb the Princess’s meal, farewell.”
Xiao Lan recovered at this moment and winked at Qingyan. Qingyan took out a bag of silver and handed it to the eunuch.
The eunuch pretended to shirk twice before ‘reluctantly’ accepting it, and left with the group of people.
As soon as he left, Qing Yan asked Xiao Lan blankly, “My Lady, what just happened?”
