Chapter 573 Good and Bad

According to past practice, the excitement of the Butter Lantern Festival lasts all night. On this night, the people of Xibo enjoyed themselves and stayed up all night.

Lanterns, singing and dancing, juggling...

This Butter Lantern Festival is somewhat similar to the Shangyuan Festival of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

It's a pity that now that she is in Xibo, it is no longer possible to see the crowds of people and the colorful scenery of the Lantern Festival during the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The phoenix flute sounded, the jade pot turned light, and fish and dragons danced all night. She thought that Shangyuan in the Great Zhou Dynasty must be as lively and prosperous as in previous years.

There were bursts of laughter and excitement.

She sat high up, watching the lights under the stage, silently lost in thought, with a glimmer of light rising in her eyes.

The people were happy all night long, but they couldn't just sit there all night. After midnight, everyone watching from the high platform was ready to go home.

The onlookers crowded towards this place, wanting to catch a glimpse of Princess Zhou, so the guards had to form a circle to stop them.

Xiao Lingjiang stepped off the high platform, avoided the crowd and walked towards the carriage.

At this moment, a childish voice sounded not far away from her: "Princess, give you flowers..."

Xiao Lingjiang was stunned for a moment. He lowered his head when he heard the words and saw a pair of small hands holding gorgeous butter flowers and offering them to her.

The owner of the little hand looked to be no more than four or five years old, her round face was already flushed by the winter wind, and her big dark eyes were looking straight at her, innocent and cute.

It turned out that the child, taking advantage of his short stature, managed to sneak over while the guard was unprepared.

The guard's heart tightened when he saw this, and he was about to push the child back, but Xiao Lingjiang stopped him with a flick of his hand: "It doesn't matter."

This child has clear eyes and clean breath. He is not a dangerous person. What's more, no matter how bad she, Xiao Lingjiang, was, she wouldn't be hurt by such a young child.

No matter how anxious Gongji was to kill her, he would not be so confused as to send a four or five-year-old child to assassinate her in public.

She walked slowly to the child, knelt down on her knees, smiled at him, and asked softly in Tibetan: "Are you giving it to me?"

"It's for you." The child nodded heavily and stretched his little hand holding the butter flower forward, "The princess is a good person!"

"Oh?" Xiao Lingjiang's eyes slightly curved, "Why do you say that?"

The child blinked his eyes, tilted his head and said, "My mother-in-law said that if the princess comes to Tibet to get married, maybe there will be no more wars in the future. In this way, wouldn't my father be able to stay at home and play with me every day?"

"If the princess can ask her grandpa to always accompany me, she is the greatest good person!" The words blurted out by the child were innocent and brilliant.

He didn't know the benefits of the marriage, let alone the treacherous calculations behind it. He only knew that there would be no war between the two countries if they reconciled, so that his grandfather, who was in the army, could stay at home to play grass and football with him every day. .

Xiao Lingjiang couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart when he heard this. How did he know that this marriage was just an excuse for Xifan to recover temporarily. After it recovered from the attack of Dazhou and Nanzhao, there would definitely be another war in three to five years. . And Chicheng is the front line closest to Liangzhou.

When there was an earthquake in Liangzhou, if Pei You and his master hadn't escaped the danger in time to avoid casualties, and if Pei You and his master had not chased Gongji and Tuochi back, the monstrous flames of war would have been ignited.

He didn't even know that the princess in front of him, who was called a "good person", did not come to bring peace and prosperity to the people of Xibo.

When the two countries were at war, she may have been the protector in the hearts of the people of the Zhou Dynasty, but this may not be the case for the people of Xibo.

Xiao Lingjiang laughed at herself, the word "good person" was really funny to her.

However, the child didn't know anything and just looked at her expectantly.

Facing his sparkling eyes, Xiao Lingjiang couldn't say anything to deny it. He could only smile and nod: "If we don't fight anymore, your grandpa can stay with you every day."

Hearing her words, the children cheered happily: "Oh! That's great!"

He held the butter flower in front of Xiao Lingjiang: "Princess, this is the butter flower my mother-in-law just bought for me. It's so beautiful! I'm giving it to you!"

The petals of the small butter flowers are stretched and gorgeous, just like the smile on a child's face. Xiao Lingjiang suppressed the bitterness in her heart, smiled gently, and took the flower from the child's hand: "Thank you then!"

She reached out and touched the child's head: "Since you gave me a gift, how about I give you one too?"

"Wow! Really?" The child's eyes widened, and the twinkling light in his eyes reflected the dazzling lanterns around him.

Xiao Lingjiang smiled and nodded: "It's true."

She took out a talisman from her sleeve, and then flipped it dexterously with her fingers. In just a few breaths, she folded the talisman into a phoenix bird with a long tail.

She placed the phoenix bird in the palm of her hand, held it in front of the child, and said softly: "Come on, take a breath."

"Huh--" The child was extremely curious. He took a deep breath according to her words, and then blew it out slowly.

The long feathers of the phoenix bird trembled slightly, as if it was coming to life for a moment.

Xiao Lingjiang blinked at him and said with a smile: "You have to watch carefully next."

As she spoke, she kneaded the formula with her right hand, slightly outlined it with her fingertips, and then gently tapped the folded phoenix bird. The phoenix bird's eyes seemed to be filled with spiritual light.

The gleaming spiritual light started from the eyes and slowly covered the Phoenix Bird's body, coating it with a layer of radiance.

"Blow another breath." Xiao Lingjiang signaled.

The child's eyes widened in surprise, and as he was told, he blew out a breath and saw the phoenix bird spread its wings and fly.

As it continues to fly higher, the body of the phoenix bird becomes larger and larger, and its wings spread wider and wider.

The colorful phoenix bird holding its long tail feathers hovered and flew over the crowd, scattering little streams of light, making the surrounding area shine brightly.

As it stretches its neck, the clear chant lingers like celestial music.

The child raised his head and looked at the colorful phoenix above his head, giggling amidst the exclamations of everyone.

He stretched out his little hand to catch the light shed by the phoenix bird. Small light spots fell on his fingertips, which were warm and slowly dissipated after a few breaths.

The phoenix bird hovered over the crowd for about half a cup of tea. Xiao Ling Jiang Yang raised his hand and slightly retracted it. The phoenix bird folded its wings and slowly fell down. Finally, it shrunk back into its original talisman shape and landed lightly. In Xiao Lingjiang's palm.

Xiao Lingjiang presented the phoenix bird to the child and said: "In the Great Zhou Dynasty, the phoenix bird is an auspicious bird, which represents peace and peace. This phoenix bird is my gift to you. I wonder if you like it?"

Perhaps one day, there will be no more wars and disputes between Xibo and Zhou Dynasty, and the people of both countries can enjoy peace and harmony.

"I like it, I like it!" The child nodded heavily, his eyes full of surprise, "Princess, how did you do it?"

Xiao Lingjiang blinked: "This is a secret. When you grow up one day, you may be able to find the answer to it."

"Then I will grow up quickly!" The child was so happy that he happily took the phoenix bird and carefully put it into his arms.

Xiao Lingjiang nodded, stretched out his hand and touched his head again: "Yes. Then let's grow up safely and healthily..."

She couldn't give the child a guarantee that the war would end, so she wished him peace and health in the future.

She smiled at the child again, then turned around and boarded the carriage and left slowly.

And watching all this, Tuochi couldn't help but sigh.

Princess Yong'an had just made a talisman into a phoenix, which seemed to be just a gorgeous mystical trick, but he knew that the hovering phoenix bird was actually a blessing ceremony for children.

This Princess Yongan... is hard to comment on.
