"It is said that General Yue and General Meng first got together during the Lantern Festival."
"Lantern Festival?" The young man was not very old. He must have just passed the 29th. The girl beside him was still holding the lantern that he had just guessed in the lantern riddle. Hearing what the former said, he couldn't help but be startled: "When I was a child, my mother still You really never told me this story.”
"This should be a story told by the people in Jingzhao City. Your hometown is in the south of the Yangtze River. It's normal that you haven't heard of it... Do you want to hear it?" The young man's words were even gentle, and he really doted on the girl at the top of his heart. "If you want to hear it, I'll tell you."
"Okay, I heard that both generals are brave and good at fighting, and they are worshiped as gods of war in some places among the people!"
"It would be great if we could hear their interesting stories from back then."
Small bridges and light boats, the bright moon is no match for the bright lights.
The colorful smoke from the kitchen is incomparable to the distant mountains.
The young man walked with the girl on the street and talked about this legend that was widely circulated in Jingzhao City, "It is said that at the Lantern Festival banquet, everyone in the Tai Chi Palace recited poems and composed poems."
"At that time, General Meng deliberately hid his clumsiness, but because he was not inferior to others, the poem happened to contain General Yue."
Holding the lamp in hand, three thousand lamps are floating in the air, sending away the expectations of the world, taking away a piece of human fireworks, and heading straight for the ice mirror in the sky.
"What a coincidence that General Yue's poem also contains General Meng's name."
"It's such a coincidence. I didn't expect fate to be like this, so it happened unknowingly." This kind of mysterious emotion is always the most desirable.
Destined for three lifetimes, the person is destined to be the right one... Who can not like this kind of love that can't go wrong?
"That's right." For fear that the girl might accidentally burn her hand while playing with the sky-praying lantern, the young man took advantage of the surrounding light to look at the girl's hand carefully, only to see that the latter's fair face was also covered in tears. New Year's colors.
"Do you want to continue listening?"
"Um……"
"It is said that General Meng and General Yue did not even know each other at that time."
"do not know?"
The two of them walked further and further apart, and the story of more than a hundred years ago was completely heard by Li Lan, Li Mu and the little fox demon.
When Li Mu heard this story mentioned, the gap in his heart was naturally obvious on this reunion day. Li Lan could feel it, so he just slowed down and let the former speak for himself.
"Miss Lan, are we not destined to be together?"
"Sometimes fate has its shortcomings. Besides, Miss An was also harmed by others. Her life should not have been like this."
Life is full of troubles and ups and downs, but it's better to live a good life. What's more, being killed by the jealousy of others...
"Miss Kelan, since the fate has been decided, why are there such big changes?"
"The kindness of people's hearts can be sacrificed to save others, but the evil of people's hearts cannot be controlled either." Li Lan sighed and looked at the children playing on the other side.
"If you don't seek great good, it will be even more difficult if you don't have evil roots... Even if the imperial court educates all people, can it ensure that everyone can be themselves normally?"
After hearing this, Li Mu was left silent. Yes, it took nearly three Jiazi years before the founding of Dali, but even so, the education of folk customs could not be guaranteed. No matter how powerful the gods were, they could not control people's hearts.
Li Lan lowered his eyes and didn't know what Li Mu was thinking, but the latter's depression was very obvious.
Shrugging, Li Lan smiled and said: "For many things, just let nature take its course. As long as you have done everything you can, there will be nothing to regret."
"The answer to the riddle of this lantern is the Three Life Stones?" Before Li Mu could recover from his confusion, Li Lan had already guessed the lantern riddle and won the candied haws as a lucky draw.
"I'll give you these candied haws. You should always buy these for Miss An to eat."
"If you really can't go out, just think that everything around you is her company, and you will feel less uncomfortable..."
"Um."
"After all, you are the future prince of a country. Even if you can't get out, you still have to think about your country and the people." Li Lan handed the candied haws to Li Mu and sighed again, "Many times, fate is not important. , in the end it all depends on man-made things.”
"As long as you have a sincere heart, you have nothing to regret."
"good."
It was rare for Li Lan to be so open-minded as a mother-in-law, perhaps because he heard that Li Mu had an ancestor with the same name as him, or perhaps simply because of the care between friends, but it worked.
Mrs. An is now pregnant, so she plans to accompany Li Lan to see the lively scene of the Lantern Festival in Jingzhao City.
But the weather in Jingzhao City has not warmed up yet. After years of hard work, Mrs. An's body is also weak and tight. Li Lan doesn't ask Mrs. An to go out.
Coincidentally, Li Mu also brought up the idea of taking Li Lan around Jingzhao City, and the two of them took the little fox demon out.
"Why is it necessary to make it so difficult to understand?" The little fox demon listened to the conversation between the two, and now she just felt that human emotions are too complicated, "It's just love, love, what can't you let go of?"
"Since you've loved it and worked as hard as you can for it, that's fine. Why should you care about the results?"
"Just like me, I want to become a close minister of the future emperor. All I have to do is work hard. What's the point of worrying about success or failure?"
"Whoosh, bang!"
"Crack, crackle, crackle."
There were children on the river bank who bought firecrackers to play with, which interrupted the little fox demon's words. Li Lan took a general look and saw that the color was no less than that of the 21st century. He couldn't help but marvel at the wisdom of the people in the Kyushu continent.
"Don't you have any firecrackers there?"
"Yes, but I haven't let it go for many years." Thinking of the 21st century when there were three thousand fireworks and galaxies entering the streets a few years ago, Li Lan felt a little sad.
