Chapter 287
On this day, the whole country was celebrating for him, but he was the only one left in pieces.

No matter whether someone is looking forward to it or not, or whether someone is afraid, the biggest annual event in the world has arrived as scheduled.

Wanyan, who hadn't slept all night, got up before dawn, watching pot after pot of thick porridge come out and placed on the wooden table in the porridge shed in front of her house. Many poor people dressed in rags stayed there.

Wanyan imitated her sister in previous years, rolled up her sleeves, took a heavy spoon, and personally filled out bowls of steaming porridge, and then handed them to the people who came to receive the porridge.

None of the common people know that this stunning girl in front of them is the famous "Prince Yan" in Kyoto in "The Great Exhortation". The timidity will be instantly disintegrated by the bright and warm smile on her face.

"Please, I wish you the best of luck during the Holy Xuan Festival."

"Here you are, I wish you good health."

Wanyan politely sent a word of blessing to everyone who came to receive the porridge, and took the trouble.

Poor people held steaming porridge and squatted aside to eat happily. People passing by on the street were also well-dressed, and their faces were full of festive joy.

At this time, Wanyan was also smiling, smiling with the same joy and longing as everyone else.

However, in her heart, there was not even the slightest fluctuation, she was neither excited nor disappointed, she just felt that her wrist holding the porridge spoon was a little sore, and her back facing the mansion gate was a little chilly.

In this way until the hour of Chen, it was the time for Wanyan to greet her mother as usual, so Wanyan handed over the affairs of the soup kitchen to Yanhan, and went into the mansion by herself.

On the far side of the corridor of his mother's house, Xuan Yi was leaning on the pillar and waiting for Wanyan in a daze, his face was listless and tired.

Xuan Yi is the most rowdy person, even if it is not a festival, he can find all kinds of excuses to find someone to have fun.

But when it came to this national festival, he was like a wilted cucumber dish, unable to cheer up.

Seeing Wanyan walking quickly, Xuan Yi lazily raised his eyes, lazily folded his arms, turned around and walked in without speaking.

The two brothers and sisters came to the door like this, and preached to the maid at the door as usual: "Xuan Wanyan and Xuan Yi came to greet Mother."

As usual, the servant girl didn't even inform her, so she directly replied: "Young Master and Second Miss came here by accident, Madam is not feeling well today, and she hasn't gotten up for a while, please come back tomorrow, Master and Miss, this servant will definitely inform you came."

Wanyan and Xuan Yi had thought about it a long time ago, without even a trace of regret in their eyes, they knelt down on the ground calmly, and knocked three times to the closed door.

And inside the door, it was so quiet that there was no movement at all, like an abandoned house that had been empty for a long time, and there was not even a trace of smell.

After saluting, the two got up and wanted to leave.However, at the moment Wanyan had already turned around, she clearly heard a faint, extremely suppressed sob, like a sigh, from inside the closed door.

The voice was weaker than the wind, but it hit Wanyan's heart hard.

That is, mother's voice.

However, Wanyan just pretended not to hear, turned and left.

After so many years, Wanyan has long ceased to be curious about the story behind this day, and it must not be a happy story anyway.

After that, Xuan Yi went to lie down in the room as usual, and Wan Yan also returned to the porridge shed, continuing to laugh and work mechanically.

As the sky was completely bright, more and more people were on the street, preparing for the grand celebration in the city of Kyoto tonight.

All the men, women, young and old, carrying all kinds of decorations and all kinds of fruits and vegetables in their hands, went to the center of the city happily, and there were bursts of laughter from far or near.

There are many couples in the crowd, they sometimes whisper to each other, sometimes they look at each other and smile, much more presumptuous than usual.

After all, on weekdays, unmarried men and women are not allowed to go in and out as a pair on the street openly, but even married men and women will definitely not be so intimate under the watchful eyes of so many people.

But today is different. Today, if lovers join hands and pray together, they will receive the blessing of the Holy One. Therefore, lovers will form a couple on this day and pray together.

Wanyan looked at the happy people on the street, sighed softly, and thought to herself: I thought this year's Shengxuan Festival would be a little different with Mrs. Heng.

Unexpectedly, today's haze is destined to be irresolvable, with or without anyone, there will be no change.

Wanyan laughed and sleepwalked like a ghost for a whole day, only felt that the corners of her mouth were stiff, and finally made it to the afternoon, when she could go in to wash and change clothes, and was ready to enter the palace.
