The black-bellied prime minister's red makeup

Chapter 72 Moon Cake
The three of them came to the emperor together, Xia Hanche asked the two of them privately and found out that there was nothing serious, so he was relieved a little, and then announced to everyone present that the banquet in the Dao Palace was over and the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet was underway, ordering everyone to go to the banquet venue together .

The Mid-Autumn Banquet was held in Qinxiangyuan, where there are pavilions, flowers and bridges, which is a beautiful place.

In order to celebrate the festival, all kinds of lanterns are lit on the surrounding trees, including rabbit-shaped, dragon-shaped, fish-shaped, lotus-shaped and so on.There are gorgeous fireworks in the sky. Originally, the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival is extremely round and bright. In the rendering of the fireworks, the night is as bright as day.

On the bridge, Xia Hanming walked towards Shen Qingnan carrying a plate of mooncakes.He handed it to her without saying anything but looked at the fireworks in the sky.

After receiving it, Shen Qingnan looked at the plate with the light of the lantern and found that there were six mooncakes in total, and each piece had a different flavor, including lotus paste, osmanthus, rose, walnut, peanut, and mincemeat.It seems that he brought her a piece of mooncakes of each flavor because he didn't know what flavor she liked, but unfortunately, there was no jujube paste that she liked.

Glancing at her mouth, she returned the plate of mooncakes: "There is nothing I like."

I was taken aback and asked, "What kind of food do you like to eat?"

"Jujube paste"

"Jujube paste?"

Subconsciously wiped it on his chest, took out a bag of things from his chest and handed it to her, "See if there is any here."

It was a paper bag for pastries. Shen Qingnan took it and opened it to see the jujube paste mooncakes inside.Surprised, he asked, "Why do you have so many mooncakes here?"

In this paper bag, besides a few jujube moon cakes, there are also five kernels, egg yolks, mung beans, etc., which are rare in the palace and popular among folks.It suddenly occurred to him that when the two of them came out of Prince Xuan's mansion, he asked her to go back to the palace by herself first. Could it be that he didn't come back with her to buy mooncakes?
Laughing, looking at the fireworks in the sky, he said: "I don't know which flavor you like, and I was afraid that there is no one you like in the palace, so I bought some outside, thinking that if there is no one you like in the palace, I will show you this bag." .” Turning his head and pointing at these mooncakes, he asked, “Is there any jujube paste you like?”

A big blue firework bloomed in the sky again, and the moment it bloomed, Shen Qingnan could clearly see Xia Hanming's face with its light.

There was a doting smile on his handsome face, and his eyes as bright as stars and moons were full of tenderness that was about to overflow.Feeling warm in her heart, for a moment Shen Qingnan wanted to look at him like this forever, no matter whether he was sincere or not, this moment made her so comfortable.But that thought was just that moment.

Withdrawing her eyes, she took out a jujube paste mooncake and ate it. Looking at the fireworks in the sky, she asked, "Why do you like me? You and I are both men."

"I know." It was because she was a man that he was unsure of his feelings for her for so long, until he realized that he missed her all the time and couldn't help liking her, so he knew that she would never be erased from his heart .

That's right, he just likes her, even if she is a man, he still likes her, it's just...

"I don't know what I like about you. It's just that when I first saw you, I had an unexplainable feeling that made me uncontrollably pity you and protect you time and time again."

"You mean you liked me from the first moment you saw me?"

first glance?Was it the welcome banquet when he returned to the imperial court?But that night he was against her everywhere, but when her leg was injured the next day, he carried her into the hall.

Turning her eyes in her sockets, she took another bite of the mooncake. She tentatively said to him, "Just now, what Gesang said was true. I knocked her off the roof, and I also pretended to fall." of."

She wanted to see if he would still like her after knowing the truth and her meanness.

With a chuckle, Xia Hanming said, "I know."

"you know?"

Nodding: "I know, although you tried your best to cover up your actions, I still saw you knock Gesang down and then jump off yourself."

"Since you know I did it on purpose, why are you going to save me?"

"Because I don't dare to gamble." Looking at her, Xia Hanming's tone of voice was extremely flat but filled with weight: "Even though I know you lied to me, I still don't dare to gamble, just because that person is you, and I don't want you to be hurt." A little hurt, even just a little."

I don't want you to be hurt a little bit, even just a little bit.

I have to say that she was moved by this sentence, like a corner of her heart that had been frozen for thousands of years was suddenly roasted by the stove, even though it was only a corner, it warmed that moment.

If it was someone else, maybe she would really open her heart to him, but the person beside her now is not someone else but Xia Hanming, her enemy. If he hadn't suppressed the Wen Party and suppressed her father everywhere, her father would not have suffered from overwork. He died of serious illness.

Indirect revenge for killing her father, how could she let go of her knot with him.
