In front of the towering and quiet Lanxing Tower, clusters of silver flowers exploded in the air, like thousands of stars falling into the mortal world. They were fleeting, beautiful and shocking, making people unable to take their eyes away.
"It's so beautiful." Jiang Shu exclaimed in surprise.
Yu Zheng looked sideways at the person beside him.
"Bang!" When the flowers exploded in the air, Jiang Shu's face was clearly reflected, and the fiery trees and silver flowers bloomed in her bright eyes, making her already bright face even more radiant.
This is the most beautiful flowering scene that Yu Zheng has ever seen.
Holding Jiang Shu's slender hand with his broad palm, Jiang Shu smiled sideways at Yu Zheng, which was more dazzling than the blooming fire trees and silver flowers.
The girls and young ladies at the back were all envious when they saw Yu Zheng and Jiang Shu's loving appearance.
Priceless treasures are easy to find, but lovers are rare.
After watching the flower arrangement, everyone felt relaxed and moved to the Imperial Garden, chatting and laughing, admiring the flower lanterns and guessing lantern riddles.
There is no Aoshan in the palace, but the lanterns in the palace are unique in shape and exquisite in workmanship, which is very endearing.
There is a round table in the open space in the garden, and the table is piled with a dazzling array of various rare jewelry. In the middle of the colorful head table, there is a glass lamp, which is particularly eye-catching.
"This year's jackpot is a glazed lantern. It's so beautiful. Let's quickly guess the lantern riddles and get the jackpot."
Everyone was in high spirits, and they competed in groups to guess riddles.
Jiang Shu also took a fancy to the glazed lamp and asked Yu Zheng in a low voice: "Is it easy to get the first prize?"
Yu Zheng's eyebrows moved slightly when he heard this: "You want it?"
Jiang Shu nodded, staring at the glass lamp with burning eyes.
It's brilliant, crystal clear, like the stars in the night sky, beautiful and charming, it's hard not to like it.
Seeing how much she loved it, Yu Zheng pursed his lips and said, "You and my sister, mother and concubine, rest in the pavilion while I go to win the prize."
"Okay." Jiang Shu agreed obediently.
Yu Zheng sent her to the pavilion and left her under the care of Yu Lan and Concubine Yu.
"What are you doing?" Yu Lan asked curiously.
Yu Zheng coughed and said, "Guess a riddle."
Yu Lan was surprised: "Don't you think it's troublesome and boring, so you never participate?"
The year before last, she had taken a fancy to the gold-plated filigree hairpin that was her first prize, and asked Yu Zheng to help her win it, but Yu Zheng refused to go no matter what. He said that it was rude to compete with a group of girls and ladies, so in the end he just gave one to her.
Is this a gender transition this year?
"It's okay to guess once in a while." Yu Zheng's expression remained unchanged.
Yu Lan had disbelief written all over his face.
"I want the glazed lamp." Jiang Shu said weakly.
Concubine Yu Gui and Yu Lan understood instantly and said with a smile: "Then you have to hurry up. If you are late, someone will get there first."
Yu Zheng responded and walked away.
"Uncle, I want to play riddles with you too." Zhuang Yun followed Yu Zheng like a tail.
Jiang Shu and the other three were sitting in the pavilion chatting.
People were coming and going in the garden. Some who were tired of walking would go to the pavilion to rest and join in the chat.
Time passed little by little, and suddenly, there was a burst of cheers in the garden.
"Brother Zheng won the jackpot!"
It was the girls who cheered with surprise, envy and a little regret.
After hearing this, Jiang Shu followed the news and saw Yu Zheng, surrounded by a group of men and women, going to the lottery table in the garden.
The gossip in the pavilion was interrupted, and Yu Lan smiled and said to Jiang Shu, "Let's go and collect the prize."
"Yes." Jiang Shu stood up happily, and Yu Lan held her arm and walked slowly.
Receiving the lottery is the most anticipated part, and young men and women flock to watch the fun.
Suddenly, the empty space was filled with people and became lively.
"Congratulations to His Royal Highness King Jing for winning the first prize." The chamberlain carefully and respectfully presented the glazed lamp to Yu Zheng.
Yu Zheng took it and turned to look at Jiang Shu.
Jiang Shu stood in the crowd, their eyes met, and Yu Zheng walked toward her with his lips held in his hands.
"No wonder Brother Zheng fought with us this year. It turned out that he wanted to make me smile." Someone laughed and booed, and took the initiative to get out of the way.
In an instant, everyone turned their attention to Yu Zheng and Jiang Shu to witness this beautiful moment.
Yu Lan smiled and took a few steps away, leaving space for the two of them.
Being stared at and laughed at by so many people, Jiang Shu's face turned red and he felt very embarrassed.
Yu Zheng took his time and walked towards Jiang Shu step by step with the glazed lamp.
"Hahaha..." A group of children laughed and chased each other, suddenly rushing to Jiang Shu.
"Don't run, we got you."
In front of everyone, in a split second, Jiang Shu was hit by several children and fell backward uncontrollably.
"Shu'er!" Yu Zheng's black eyes were condensed, full of panic, he threw away the glass lamp in his hand, ran towards Jiang Shu in a hurry, and stretched out his arms to catch Jiang Shu.
However, he was a little further away and blocked by several children, so he was eventually slow.
"Bang!" Not only the glazed lamp was broken, but also Yu Zheng's heart.
Xie Wanruo, who was standing not far behind Jiang Shu, saw that Yu Haolin was among the children who knocked down Jiang Shu. Her beautiful eyes widened and panic arose in her heart.
She knew very well what the child in Jiang Shu's belly meant.
Without any time to think, Xie Wanruo stepped forward, reached out to catch Jiang Shu, and the two fell to the ground together.
"Ah!" Jiang Shu fell to the ground in panic and hit Xie Wanruo hard.
"Ah!" Xie Wanruo made a meat mat for Jiang Shu and threw it to the ground.
The accident happened so suddenly that everyone's smiles froze on their faces and suddenly turned into shock.
"Shu'er, how are you?" Yu Zheng immediately helped Jiang Shu up and asked anxiously.
Jiang Shu said in shock: "I'm not...it's okay."
"Thank you, concubine." Yu Lan and others went to help Xie Wanruo.
Xie Wanruo felt pain all over her body, especially her stomach, which made her break into a cold sweat.
"How are you?" Yu Lan asked Xie Wanruo in a solemn voice.
Xie Wanruo looked pale and said, "It hurts, my stomach... hurts so much."
"Quickly call the imperial physician!" Yu Zheng ordered coldly.
The people in the surrounding palaces woke up and hurriedly went to ask for the imperial doctor.
Xie Wanruo and Jiang Shu were placed in the nearest palace, and the emperor, empress, concubine Yu, and others came after hearing the news.
"Wanruo, Wanruo...cough cough..." Yu Cheng's injury was not healed, and he started coughing again in anger.
"Your Highness..." Xie Wanruo grabbed Yu Cheng's hand and wanted to comfort him, but it was difficult to speak because of the pain.
The imperial doctor came soon, and Imperial Physician Chen and another imperial physician examined Jiang Shu and Xie Wanruo at the same time.
"How?" Yu Zheng asked anxiously.
The imperial doctor said: "The princess is just frightened and is not seriously ill. Just take a bowl of tranquilizing medicine."
"How is Wanruo?" Yu Chengye asked urgently.
Doctor Chen frowned and said with a heavy expression, "My wife is showing signs of miscarriage, and the baby in her belly... may be difficult to save."
When Xie Wanruo heard this, she almost fainted.
This is the child she has been waiting for for several years!
"Is there any way to save it?" Yu Cheng asked, holding his chest and gritting his teeth.
Doctor Chen hesitated and said, "I can only do my best."
"Okay, okay, use the best medicine and make sure to save the child." Yu Cheng held on to the last glimmer of hope.
After the emperor heard the diagnosis, he asked Ling Sheng: "What's going on? How could something happen to someone who is so good?"
What a coincidence, but the accident happened to two pregnant people.
Yu Lan said: "A group of children were chasing and fighting and accidentally bumped into Jiang Shu. Concubine Xie was close to Jiang Shu and risked her own life to catch Jiang Shu."
The incident was clearly witnessed by everyone.
