"Yuanyuan~ Look what father has brought back for you."
King Dingnan took out a lantern from his arms. Wen Yuan, who was still young, liked these fancy gadgets.
She held the lantern brought back by her father with her two pink hands and said, "Thank you, Father. Did Father bring back a lantern for Chunhua?"
Qiuyue on the side is also an ignorant child. She is very envious of the young lady for having such a beautiful lantern, but she did not expect that she also shares it.
Looking at the little rabbit lantern that King Dingnan took out, little Chunhua's eyes lit up, "Is this... is this for me?"
Wen Yuan, the little rabbit lantern who saw Chunhua, jumped up in envy, "Father, you are so partial, why did you only buy rabbit lanterns for Chunhua? Mine is a lotus?"
"Father thought they both looked good, so he bought them both. Anyway, you two have been playing together, so don't be so angry."
Wen Yuan just pretended to be angry, but in fact she never felt unhappy because her father favored Chun Hua. On the contrary, she felt that such a father was very good.
Chunhua took the initiative to bring the rabbit lantern in front of Wen Yuan, "Miss, here you go, actually I prefer the lotus lantern."
"I don't believe it. You can't give it to me just because I like it. You obviously like it too. It's your thing. You should keep it yourself."
Chunhua has been accommodating Wen Yuan since she was a child.
At this time, Princess Dingnan walked out of the house. She looked at the two children and smiled lovingly, "Such a beautiful lantern. How about we go shopping outside with the lantern?"
"Mrs., it's cold outside. It would be bad if it freezes you and the child."
"How can it be possible? Is it possible that we won't go out as soon as the weather gets cold? How can we be so delicate?"
In Wen Yuan's memory, the relationship between his parents has always been very good.
In the crowded street, the maids and secret guards separated Princess Dingnan from the crowd. Wen Yuan felt that it was not lively all year long, so he clamored for them, the maids and secret guards, to follow behind.
"Mother! They have separated the crowd. There is no lively atmosphere at all. Just let them go to the back."
Princess Dingnan couldn't defeat Wen Yuan, so she could only let them all follow behind her. Wen Yuan was happy now and rushed forward regardless of it. This scared Princess Dingnan so much that she quickly chased after her, "Yuan Yuan! Don’t leave mother’s sight!”
"I'm sorry, mother... I just saw there were lantern riddles in front of me and I wanted to take a look."
In contrast, Chunhua is much quieter and more disciplined. Princess Dingnan is holding Wen Yuan's hand, and Wen Yuan's hand is holding Chunhua's hand. The big and small pictures look very harmonious.
At that time, Wen Yuan could be said to be the happiest child in the entire Dragon Kingdom. His father was the prestigious King Dingnan, and his mother was also a talented woman well-known to everyone in the Dragon Kingdom. Her grandfather and uncle were both emperors, and her grandmother loved her more than her own children. At that time, Wen Yuan could be said to be loved by thousands of people.
Thinking of this, Wen Yuan felt a little disappointed. The ignited paper money in her hand floated into the air. Looking at the light of the sparks in the dark night, Wen Yuan thought of the lantern night when the people she cared about were still by her side.
Unknowingly, she walked to Chunhua's grave, where Wen Yuan had ordered a stone sculpture based on Chi Zhaoyue's demon body. The huge green snake was lifelike, just like Chi Zhaoyue's death at Chunhua's grave. That night.
Wen Yuan used magic to create a rabbit lantern and placed it on Chunhua's grave. She sat next to it and looked at the dark sky, "Chunhua, look, there are no stars tonight. Tomorrow is the new year." , I still remember that we used to spend every year together, so on the last day of this year, I also want to be with you."
At this point, Wen Yuan started to feel pain while hugging herself. The biting cold wind whistled, but Wen Yuan couldn't feel the temperature.
"Chunhua, have you seen my mother? Is she doing well..." Thinking of his mother, Wen Yuan cried even more, and her tears were like bursting from a dam.
All this was seen by Shen Huaiyan who was not far away. Is she sitting in the snow like this on such a cold day?
The man walked up and put a big cloak on Wen Yuan, "Ah Yuan..." He squatted down and gently stroked Wen Yuan's head with his hand, "Let's go back, okay? It's too cold here, you will get sick. "
"I don't want to go back, and I'm the Demon King. I won't get sick easily. Please leave quickly. I just want to be alone today and miss my past."
I miss myself who died with Chunhua and my mother...
Seeing Wen Yuan like this, Chen Huaiyan felt extremely sad. He couldn't bear Wen Yuan to continue like this, but he couldn't stand her stubborn eyes. He shook his head, sighed and left.
But the man did not go far, and continued to observe Wen Yuan from where he was just now.
Wen Yuan finally slept in the snow, with the person she loved in her dream.
Returning to the lantern festival of her childhood, Wen Yuan experienced it from another perspective.
She watched herself acting coquettishly in her mother's arms as a child. Chunhua was still very reserved at that time, always trembling, like a wounded kitten.
Wen Yuan slept for a long time, and when she woke up, it was already the next day. It was a new year, and she was a new person.
The entire Demon Palace was brand new, and the waiters had been cleaning it inside and out for a long time. When they saw Wen Yuan coming out, the maids stepped forward with smiles, "Hey, Commander, this... the new year is here again, our... …”
There is a tradition in Wanmoyuan that on the first day of the new year, the elders give a red envelope to the younger ones as a New Year's blessing.
They only dare to do this because they have a good relationship with Wen Yuan. If other waiters would not dare to ask Wen Yuan for something so straightforwardly.
Unfortunately, Wen Yuan did not prepare a red envelope. Although there was no red envelope, there were still other things. She dug into her pocket and rummaged around.
Seeing the Commander's efforts, several maids looked at each other and laughed, "Oh Commander, we are just joking, we don't really want it."
"No, it's a new year. You have worked hard for a year, so it's time for me to give you some gifts to express my feelings."
Listening to Wen Yuan's words, several people were a little moved. They didn't expect that something that other masters considered to be a matter of course would be praised by the commander-in-chief.
Wen Yuan found some jewelry suitable for girls of their age, "Okay, let's pick them up and see if there is anything you like."
"It's so precious...is it really okay, Commander-in-Chief?"
"Of course, just choose quickly. If you don't like something, I'll find it for you."
How could he not like it, so the people in Wen Yuan Palace showed it off to other waiters that day.
But Wen Yuan did not treat the other waiters badly. The entire Demon Palace and the ministers of Wanmoyuan all had their share, but the preparation time was longer.
When Shen Huaiyan met Wen Yuan, he did not forget to tease her, "It seems that he has recovered. Did you forget yesterday? You fell asleep in the snow. What did you dream about? Tell me about it."
"How can I tell you the dream I had? Don't even think about it."
Hearing Wen Yuan's words, Shen Huaiyan smiled fondly. He took out a jade pendant he had prepared earlier and put it in Wen Yuan's hand. "In the new year, I only wish you peace and happiness."
It happened that Wen Yuan also prepared a gift for the man, "Here, this is for you."
Shen Huaiyan took a look and saw that it turned out to be a small white porcelain fox. Judging from the exquisiteness, she must have made it herself.
Just when he was feeling happy, Wen Yuan suddenly asked Jue, "Have you seen Jue? I have another one for him."
The man took a closer look... Good guy, everyone is a co-author, right? It's just that Jue's one belongs to a wolf.
Thinking of this, Shen Huaiyan was a little unhappy, but he didn't show it. After all, it was the first day of the new year.
Besides, who am I? Can I still influence Wen Yuan’s thoughts?
Wen Yuan saw that he had a manly look on his face and asked directly without reacting, "Huaiyan, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Why do you look like you have a stomachache and are holding your shit in?"
"No, Jue seems to be in his own palace. Go and have a look."
Wen Yuan and Shen Huaiyan thanked each other and left. The man looked at her retreating back with a sense of loss, "Have we both reached this point..."
Arriving at the place where Jue lives, the lazy guy is still sleeping. Wen Yuan goes in and lifts his quilt.
The man was about to get angry, but he immediately calmed down after seeing that the person coming was Wen Yuan, "Master, why are you here so early?"
"It's getting late. What time is it? It's almost noon. It's time to get up."
Wen Yuan said this and took out the white porcelain he had prepared from his sleeve, "Here, this is for you, I kneaded it myself."
Not to mention how happy Jue was when she saw Wen Yuan's gift, "Is this for me? It's great. I have never received a gift before. Thank you."
But when she thought that she had given nothing to Wen Yuan, Jue immediately felt uncomfortable.
Wen Yuan noticed his emotions and quickly comforted him: "It's okay. It's okay if you didn't give me anything. As long as you are by my side, we will create more memories together in the new year."
"Okay! It's a deal!" Many times, Jue is like a child. When facing Wen Yuan, most of his emotions are written on his face. This is why Wen Yuan can better understand his emotional changes.
"It's a new year, what are your wishes?"
"My wish..." The man lowered his head and thought for a while, then grinned stupidly, "My wish is that Master, you will always be happy and be a happy princess."
"Your wish is for me to be happy?"
Wen Yuan was very moved. When she thought of what Shen Huaiyan said just now, her heart became even warmer. There were so many people around her who thought about her, so how could she give up on herself so easily...
"My wish is that all the people I love can be happy."
