Not long after returning to the palace, the group went to Yecheng again. Why, King Jin sent a letter to let them participate in the Dragon Boat Festival in the new year.
After Nalan Fengjin pacified the world, the King of Jin changed the flower boat race into the Dragon Boat Festival to celebrate peace in the world.
Nalan Fengjin and others were naturally happy and couldn't wait to go out. The queen was left with a depressed look on her face: "Hey, I haven't been to court seriously for a few days since I came back, and I ran out to play again. When can I stop reading these excerpts?"
The emperor chuckled when he heard it: "Let her play. When she comes to the throne, she won't be able to play even if she wants to."
The queen handed the emperor a note: "The ministers submitted a letter to let A Jin ascend the throne, but she rejected it."
"Han Yi's incident has been less than a year. I'm afraid it's because of this that she didn't ascend the throne. Then let the ministers wait. Why are you anxious? The throne can't be lost." The emperor advised.
The queen nodded and said no more.
Nalan Fengjin and the others were enjoying their trip to the mountains and rivers. It was already early summer when they arrived in Yecheng.
After meeting Queen Jin, Nalan Fengjin went to the Su family without stopping. Nalan Jinse didn't know that Nalan Fengjin was coming. Suddenly he saw his eldest sister standing in front of him. He didn't react for a long time. , after confirming for a long time, he rushed over and jumped into her arms.
"Elder sister, you miss me so much, why are you here?" Nalan Jinse was hugged by Nalan Fengjin, as happy as a child, while Su Jintian smiled and greeted her.
"Come to the Dragon Boat Festival, and then take you home to see your mother." Nalan Fengjin just carried Nalan Jinse back to the house. I don't care about other people's surprised looks at all.
"It is said that there is no father or son in the Tian family. The prince and the princess are so different." Su Jintian's entourage said in surprise.
"They are different. Imperial power is not more important than friendship in their eyes. Such an emperor is a blessing to the world." Su Jintian responded with a smile.
"What are you doing now?" Nalan Jinse got down from Nalan Fengjin's arms and ordered someone to pour tea and send cakes.
"Help me handle the government affairs and stay with dad by the way." Nalan Fengjin replied.
"Hahaha, great. Our family is finally reunited, but the eldest brother can't come back. It's a pity." Nalan Jinse said depressedly.
"Don't be depressed, your eldest brother will be happy with his mother." Nalan Fengjin comforted him.
"I've heard everything about you in Nanchuan, Sister Da Huang, you are quite ruthless." Nalan Jinse said, holding his chin.
"Du's, it's your own fault. If Du Yuze hadn't treated Han Yi like that, I would have left them a way out. As for Du, I haven't figured out how to deal with it yet." Nalan Fengjin took a sip of tea and continued: "Han Qi and Xing Ci's wedding is in September, can you go away from Lincheng and go back to stay for a while?"
"Ah, yes, I have discussed with Jintian, and the matters here will be left to the fourth brother. We originally planned to go north after the Dragon Boat Festival. Mother is back, but father is still here. You have the final say in the world, and I The flesh and blood of the Tian family are not allowed to join in the fun." Nalan Jinse looked at Nalan Fengjin with a smile: "Sister Huang, I heard that you and Mr. Xuyan, when will you let your sister drink your wedding wine?"
"Haha, why are you in such a hurry? You can't run away." Nalan Fengjin smiled.
"Ah, it seems to be true, hahaha, great, your thousand-year-old iron tree has finally bloomed." Nalan Jinse laughed. "Sister, when did you ascend the throne? How come you've brought peace to the world, but you're like a normal person?"
"Look at how anxious you are, the throne can't be lost." Nalan Fengjin smiled.
"Hehe, you must look really good in the dragon robe." Nalan Jinse looked expectantly, and Nalan Fengjin scratched her nose lovingly.
After talking for a long time, the two of them felt that it was boring, so they called Xingci and Xuanruo to come in and beat the horse.
The girls inside the house were having fun, and the boys outside the house were drinking to their heart's content. I didn't go back to rest until late at night.
While these people were happy, a horse team was galloping on the road, heading towards Lincheng under the stars and the moon.
When this group of people arrived at the Su family, Nalan Fengjin was drinking tea with Nalan Jinse in the yard. He was stunned when he saw the person coming in: Su Jinrui, the second son of the Su family.
Nalan Fengjin knew from his tired look that he had returned overnight. Last night, Nalan Jinse mentioned that Su Jinrui was in a hurry to return after knowing that she was coming to the city.
Nalan Fengjin saw Su Jinrui at the door and smiled softly: "Second Young Master, long time no see."
Su Jinrui stood for a long time before saluting her. Then I went to clean it up.
"Sister, the second brother loves you. After you left that year, he was drunk for half a month." Nalan Jinse said softly.
"I know, but." Nalan Fengjin sighed: "We are not suitable."
Nalan Jinse nodded and said nothing. Nalan Jinse understood Nalan Fengjin's thoughts. The reason why he said this was just to help Su Jinrui one last time. Because Su Jinrui once said to herself: He is not her lover. If we meet again and just want to have dinner with her again, then this life will be enough.
At lunch time, Su Jinrui reappeared in front of Nalan Fengjin and smiled slightly: "I'll treat you to a meal, and I'll give you a face."
Nalan Fengjin stood up, made an invitation gesture, and followed Su Jinrui out.
Su Jinrui led the way, and Nalan Fengjin followed leisurely behind.
In the private seats of Juxian Restaurant, Nalan Fengjin and Su Jinrui sat facing each other. Su Jinrui took out several kinds of wine for Nalan Fengjin to taste.
"I haven't seen you for many years, but you still like drinking so much." Su Jinrui poured wine for her and spoke.
"Money, wine, and beauty are my three major hobbies in life." Nalan Fengjin took a sip and answered.
"Beauty?" Su Jinrui was stunned when he heard these two words. Then he laughed dumbly: "It's a good thing you are not a man, otherwise you would have a harem of three thousand beauties."
"No, no, beauty, just look at it, don't take it for yourself." Nalan Fengjin shook her finger.
"What's the explanation?" Su Jinrui was curious.
"It's too troublesome, I can't understand." Nalan Fengjin said.
"Hahaha, you are quite straightforward." Su Jinrui laughed.
Nalan Fengjin raised his eyebrows and focused on the squirrel fish that had just been served. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It was extremely delicious.
"Now that everything is settled and the world is at peace, why are you silent?" Su Jinrui served her a bowl of lily and lotus seed porridge.
"What?" Nalan Fengjin raised his head.
"Ascended to the throne." Su Jinrui replied.
"Huh? Why does everyone care about when I will ascend the throne?" Nalan Fengjin wondered.
"Well, it seems I'm not the only one gossiping." Su Jinrui gave a different answer.
"Your answer is quite interesting." Nalan Fengjin swallowed a fish meatball and smiled.
"How about taking a boat trip to the lake later." Su Jinrui said.
"Yeah, okay." Nalan Fengjin nodded.
There was a hint of joy in Su Jinrui's eyes, and Nalan Fengjin caught it and pretended not to see it.
After finishing the meal, Nalan Fengjin narrowed his eyes and said, "It's so delicious. Haha."
"As long as you like it." Su Jinrui smiled in apology.
On the boat, Nalan Fengjin stood at the bow, while Su Jinrui sat behind and looked at her back. The two of them didn't have much to say.
At night, when the lanterns are first lit, reflecting the shimmering lake, it is beautiful, quiet and gorgeous.
Nalan Fengjin was excited for a moment when he saw the flying Kongming Lantern: "Look, it's so beautiful."
"Let it go for you." Su Jinrui walked towards the bow and said softly.
"For me, you did all this?" Nalan Fengjin looked surprised.
"To thank you for making this world without war." Su Jinrui said.
Nalan Fengjin burst out laughing when she heard his high-sounding reason. Su Jinrui just smiled and stood with her on the bow.
"Ah Jin." Su Jinrui paused: "It is enough for me, Su Jinrui, to see you again and light a lamp for you once in this life."
Nalan Fengjin looked back at him gently and nodded gently.
At the beginning of the moonlight, Su Jinrui sent Nalan Fengjin back to Nalan Jinse's yard.
"Brother Su, I wish you peace and success in this life." Nalan Fengjin turned around and entered the house.
Su Jinrui stood in front of the door and looked at the door that slowly closed. I sighed softly and remembered what my father said many years ago: In this world, many people and many things are destined not to belong to you. Even if you spend your whole life, it will be difficult to grasp it. It is better to let go freely, and maybe there will be another world.
Su Jinrui looked at the shadow reflected in the window and felt a little melancholy in his heart. After all, this figure was one that he had been unable to catch no matter what. In her heart, there had been Nalan Hanyi, Nalan Hanqi, Du Yuze, and now it was Nalan Xuyan who lived there, but she had never been there for a moment. In her eyes, he was her brother-in-law's. Brother, he is a good friend, even a passerby, but he will never be a good person.
Maybe it would be good if she was fine. Su Jinrui suppressed the emotion deep in his heart, glanced at the sky, took a deep breath, and turned to leave.
Nalan Jinse watched Su Jinrui walk out of the yard and said to Nalan Fengjin, "He's gone."
"I know." Nalan Fengjin sat down. Pouring a cup of tea: "My heart is actually very small and can no longer accommodate others."
Nalan Jinse did not answer, and quietly looked at Nalan Fengjin who was looking at the teacup in a daze. Nalan Fengjin looked at the tea in the cup, feeling suddenly sad. She missed him.
Nalan Fengjin suddenly felt depressed. When he opened the window, he saw a figure standing in the yard. He was overjoyed and said with unconcealable surprise in his voice: "You are back." The next minute, Nalan Fengjin came out of the window. He jumped out and stood in front of the man: "Didn't you say you were going to be busy for a while? Why did you come back in three days and have all the affairs in the mansion and the army been dealt with?"
Nalan Xuyan stretched out his hand to smooth her hair and said, "I missed you, so I'll be back."
"Hehe, then..." Nalan Fengjin smiled and narrowed his eyes.
"It's all taken care of. I'll watch the dragon boat with you with peace of mind from now on." Nalan Xuyan rubbed her hair lovingly.
"Okay, hahahaha. I'm still depressed. It's so boring when you're not here during the dragon boat ride." Nalan Fengjin turned around happily and pulled Nalan Xuyan: "Have you eaten yet? I'll take you when you leave." go for meal."
"Hahaha." Nalan Xuyan smiled and was pulled out of the yard by Nalan Fengjin.
Nalan Jinse looked at the backs of the two people, turned around and glanced at Su Jintian who appeared behind him and said with a smile: "The elder sister's iron tree has blossomed."
"Your Highness has never lacked young masters Pianpianjia, but only Mr. Xuyan is suitable for her." Su Jintian said.
"Huh?" Nalan Jinse was stunned.
"He understands her." Su Jintian replied.
On the bustling street of Lincheng, Nalan Fengjin was jumping around like a rabbit. Nalan Xuyan stayed with her until late at night.
On the second day, everyone gathered for the Dragon Boat Festival. There were so many people and it was so lively. At the opening of the Dragon Boat Festival this time, Nalan Ziyu came on stage to sing, which attracted continuous applause. Nalan Fengjin joked: "I still think Xuanruo is good-looking. Hahaha."
After more than a month of fooling around with other young masters, Nalan Fengjin and his party set off northward to return to Tiandu City.
