was very worried that she would have some sparks with the princess, so he was on guard every day. He was not stupid, but after more than a year of getting along, he did not discover his female body, nor did he see his feelings, which was enough to make people angry.

    Huo Zheng took into account that Jun Yan was weak and should not go to crowded places, so he specially booked the most suitable seat for viewing in the tallest restaurant in Yanjing City. From the seat, you can have a panoramic view of the entire Yanjing City, and the scenery is magnificent and grand.

    At this time, it was already dark, and the lights in Yanjing City began to light up one after another. The streets gradually became lively. In the sea of flashing lights, people were crowded and shoulder to shoulder, and bursts of laughter came from the crowd from time to time.

    Jun Yan sat by the window, looking at the crowded crowd below, as well as various delicate and small lanterns, and his eyes could not hide the novelty. After all, the Great Chu Palace was not so lively.

    "Your Highness, look over there! What a huge lotus lantern! I have never seen such a big lantern before! There are people guessing lantern riddles below, there are so many people!" Feibai stood behind Jun Yan excitedly, chattering uncontrollably.

    Feibai has been with Jun Yan since she was a child. It's not that she hasn't seen good things, but she has been locked up in the deep palace for many years. She is very excited to come out and get some fresh air occasionally, as if the air outside is different.

    Seeing Feibai so eager, Jun Yan smiled and asked her to go and play. Feibai hesitated for a while, but she couldn't resist the temptation. After Jun Yan's repeated urging, she ran out to play.

    The streets were bustling with people, and the light of the lanterns almost lit up the night, but the private room was deserted, which made it even more desolate. The annual Lantern Festival is rare, and Yu Tao is a little tempted and wants to go out and take a look. In the Lantern Festival of Da Chu, there is a kind of lantern called Acacia Lantern, which is painted with patterns such as mandarin ducks or love knots, and is used to give to sweethearts.

    Yu Tao raised her eyes to glance at Huo Zheng beside her, then lowered her head shyly as if she thought of something.

    Yu Tao thought about it, and decided to tell the princess that she would be back soon. Jun Yan let her go, and only Jun Yan and Huo Zheng were left in the private room.

    Jun Yan climbed on the railing beside the private room window, leaning sideways, quietly looking at the crowds and the hustle and bustle of traffic below. The white veil covered half of her face, but it could not hide the loneliness in her eyes.

    Huo Zheng looked at her thin and frail back, and felt inexplicably distressed. When everyone else was happy and joyful, she could only sit alone on the high platform, watching others laugh with loneliness and envy.

    Huo Zheng couldn't bear it, so he said, "Your Highness, why don't we go down and take a look? If there are lanterns that Your Highness likes, we can bring back one or two."

    Jun Yan's eyes lit up when he heard this, but soon dimmed again. She shook her head and refused, "Forget it, it's good here. There are so many people downstairs. If I get sick outside, it won't be worth it."

    She supported her chin with one hand and watched the poetry recital below. The winner would get the glass lantern as a prize. Jun Yan was too far away to see clearly.

    "I really want to see what that glass lantern looks like." She murmured.

    Jun Yan's mumbling was caught by Huo Zheng, who had been paying attention to her. He immediately said, "If Your Highness wants that lantern, I will help Your Highness win it back, okay?"

    "Really?" Jun Yan turned her head and looked at Huo Zheng with clear eyes. After a moment, she shook her head and said, "I just said it casually, and you don't have to take it seriously."

    "If the glass lamp can make Your Highness laugh, I will be satisfied." Huo Zheng vowed that he would definitely bring back the lantern.

    Jun Yan looked at the man who patted his chest and promised, her mind moved slightly, and a ripple appeared in her eyes, and she nodded.

    Finally, there was a chance to show off in front of his sweetheart, how could Huo Zheng let it go, "Your Highness, please watch from the private room, I will definitely win the glass lamp back."

    After saying that, Huo Zheng jumped down from the windowsill, causing the people below to scream. If it were usual, Huo Zheng would definitely not disdain to do such a sensational thing, but in front of his sweetheart, he just wanted to show off.

    Jun Yan sat in the elegant seat, drinking tea, looking at the lively crowd below, and quietly waiting for Huo Zheng to win the lantern for her.
