“There aren’t many opportunities to come out and enjoy the lanterns!”
Walking to a less crowded place, Li Linhuai said warmly: "If the princess feels sorry, she can climb the tower during the Lantern Festival next year and enjoy the lanterns with the emperor and ladies."
"Yes, yes, what you said is absolutely true!"
Emerging from the crowd of people singing, Li Sixu saw a row of stalls on the street in front of her.
"My lord, my lord, Sisi wants that candy man!"
Li Linhuai then led her to the candy stall, and the old man who drew the candy man asked, "What kind of candy man does the little lady want?"
When Li Sixu left the palace for the first time and went to the Imperial Medical Office, Yue'er drew a candy figure of her own and gave it to her mother. Her mother couldn't help but licked the candy figure quietly and said she couldn't eat Yue'er.
Even fun!
Li Sixu asked curiously: "Can I have any kind?"
The old candy seller nodded.
Li Sixu pointed to Li Linhuai beside her: "Is it okay to have him? I want a candy man who looks like him, is that okay too?"
Li Linhuai has chiseled features, sword-shaped eyebrows and bright eyes, and a tall figure, but he is softer when facing Li Sixu.
The old man who drew the candy man only thought that he looked very handsome, but had an aura that said "Keep away from strangers". It was a bit scary, but it was not difficult to draw his figure.
"Okay, okay, little lady, wait."
The person who drew the candy man didn't dare to look at Li Linhuai, but he still followed his example and drew a candy man who looked similar to him.
Although the candy man did not have the charm of Mr. Zuo Wei, Li Sixu still took it in his hand with a smile.
She saw the candy man smiling from the bottom of his heart, and the way he smiled was really endearing. The little princess looked a little childish, and the corners of Li Linhuai's mouth curved slightly.
The old candy seller laughed and said, "My little lady's brother is very caring!"
"yes!"
Li Sixu held the candy man and shook it towards Li Linhuai with a bright smile on her face: "Little miss's brother, do you want a candy man?"
Although Li Linhuai loves sweets, this is a secret between him and the little princess.
It's okay when no one is watching. This is on a crowded street!
If we bump into an acquaintance, the majestic left guard, the candy-eating man next to His Majesty, what a bizarre scene will it be?
Seeing the cunning look in the little princess's eyes, Li Linhuai felt helpless and shook his head in refusal. Then he took a copper plate and paid it to the grandfather who painted the candy man, and led her forward.
Li Sixu was munching on the candies leisurely while looking at the dazzling lanterns on the street. She would also stop in front of the stalls with interest from time to time.
Li Linhuai led her forward, looking sideways from time to time.
The candy man was painted like him, so how could the little princess eat it so safely?
It had snowed two days ago and the snow had just melted. The weather was supposed to be very cold. He led the princess and walked in the bustling sea of lights with crowds of people, but the side of his face still felt slightly hot.
Li Sixu felt the gaze of Master Zuo Wei from the corner of her eye, thinking that he was greedy for the candy man in his hand.
She held up the candy man and handed it over: "Sir, are you really not going to take a bite?"
Chew on yourself painted as a candy man?
Besides, it was the candy man that the little princess had chewed.
Li Linhuai thought that the crowd was too crowded and he felt a little hot from walking. He refused: "Princess, eat it yourself!"
"Sir, you always look sideways at Sisi. Don't you want to eat candy?"
As she walked forward, she muttered: "Sisi asked the adults if they wanted to draw one more candy figure? The adults said no, but they wanted to eat but were afraid to eat. Are they afraid of being seen?"
"What a worry!"
"There are so many people on the street, how can you bump into someone you know by chance?"
"Adults, don't be burdened with idols..."
The little princess admiring the flower lanterns, like the concubine in his mansion, always said strange things, which filled his ears with strange sounds.
Fortunately, a stall selling masks in front attracted the little princess's attention.
After Li Sixu took the last bite of the candy, she pulled him towards the mask stall. Li Linhuai breathed a sigh of relief.
“This bunny mask is beautiful, and there’s also a deer mask!”
Li Sixu picked up a rabbit mask and covered her little face: "Does it look good?"
Through the mask, you could hear the little princess' laughter like a silver bell. When she took the mask away, what Li Linhuai touched was a smiling face under the light.
This face perfectly inherited the face shape and facial features of the Fish Empress, but also had a bit of nobility from His Majesty.
"nice!"
Li Linhuai didn't know whether he was talking about a mask or a person.
After that, he added: "The Fish Lady will like it very much!"
"Yes, mother will definitely like it. Sisi wants the rabbit and the deer."
Li Sixu handed the deer mask to Li Linhuai: "Can you put this on?"
Li Linhuai was going to reach for the deer mask in Li Sixu's hand, but he saw a few people with deer heads and rat brains sneaking around at the jewelry stall next door. They gathered together, biting their ears and talking, and occasionally looked at those who were picking out masks. little princess.
Li Linhuai once heard about the famous Hualou Chu Palace and liked to pick good-looking children and train them from an early age.
Therefore, some kidnappers take advantage of the Lantern Festival to keep an eye on women who are alone with their children, especially those with outstanding looks, so that they can sell them at a satisfactory price.
Although people go missing during the Lantern Festival every year, Li Linhuai didn't expect that he would meet him.
Someone had the audacity to target the little princess, damn it!
There was a cold anger in his eyes, and he did not take the deer mask in Li Sixu's hand. Instead, he stared at the wolf mask hanging in front of the stall, took it off and put it on his face.
Li Sixu, who was familiar with Zuo Wei's servant, naturally did not miss the sudden anger in his eyes.
Before going to bed every night, she insisted on meditating and practicing breathing techniques according to the Sun family's secret book, and her hearing and perception became sharper. Previously, she was preoccupied with choosing a mask, and the lantern festival was full of people and disturbances.
Reminded by Li Linhuai's look, she quickly realized the target was targeting her.
How interesting!
Met the legendary kidnapper.
Not only was she not afraid, but she was cheering and feeling vaguely excited and looking forward to it.
"Then brother chose a wolf mask, and Sisi wants this fox mask."
Li Sixu picked a fox mask from the stall and put it on her face: "The wolf is very ferocious and the fox is cunning. They are the perfect match!"
With the tacit understanding between Li Linhuai and her, she chose a fox mask and put it on her face. After saying these specious words, Li Linhuai guessed what she was going to do.
The little princess is naughty!
How could he be willing to put the princess in danger?
Just as Li Linhuai was about to speak to stop her, a woman led a girl about the same age as Li Sixu and squeezed in front of the stall. The girl's bun was exactly the same as Li Sixu's.
Seeing the fox mask on Li Sixu's face, she pulled the woman and said, "Mom, her fox mask is so beautiful. I want one exactly like hers."
"Okay, let me buy Qian'er a fox mask as well."
