Remarry 9,000 Years Old
Chapter 96 If you have a wish, just grant it to me
On New Year's Eve, all the queens who were favored went to the royal family for a banquet, and the emperor would entertain the important ministers in the front hall as usual.
It was not until the fireworks were over at midnight that everyone went back home to rest.
According to common sense, Ning Su should have been serving Emperor Ming.
"Don't you have to wait till the end?" After a brief loss of composure, Shen Nanqiao came back to her senses. She looked up from his arms a little embarrassedly, "Don't you have to wait till midnight?"
"The Emperor allowed me to come back to spend time with my family on the first New Year's Eve because I got married this year."
When these two words came out of the tongue, they sounded a little strange, yet seemed to contain a hint of tenderness.
Shen Nanqiao was completely unaware of this. She was like a bird that had escaped from a cage, and was extremely happy.
"Where are you planning to take me?" She was still thinking about Ning Su's promise just now, and asked anxiously.
"Go and sell you." The handsome factory official told a joke with an indifferent expression.
The two walked side by side through the layers of palaces in the harem, with bright yellow palace lanterns hanging high above their heads, as if an undercurrent was surging in the sea of clouds, making the scene even more spectacular.
Shen Nanqiao was in a very good mood at this moment, and also teased himself along with his words.
"I'm too thin. I'm afraid I won't be able to fetch a good price."
Ning Su had a stern face and looked serious.
"Did you know that in some places, prices are not calculated by weight?"
Shen Nanqiao was stunned for a moment before he realized that he was probably talking about a brothel.
"Then are you willing to sell me to that kind of place?"
Ning Su was just joking, but he didn't expect her to ask this question. He felt like he had shot himself in the foot.
Seeing that he was speechless, Shen Nanqiao smiled smugly.
At this moment, the front hall in the distance was already very lively. The eunuchs from the Imperial Household Department were busy arranging fireworks, and the palace maids who usually could only stay in the deep palace were crowded around the fence.
Bright candles were burning everywhere, illuminating the front hall as if it were daytime. Shen Nanqiao couldn't help but take a few more glances.
"Do you like watching fireworks?" Ning Su looked at her, and the little girl's face was covered with a halo.
"It's just so-so." Shen Nanqiao turned around and met his eyes. "I'd rather go where you want to take me."
Ning Su turned his head away.
"Don't get your hopes up too much, or you'll be disappointed."
"How could that be." Shen Nanqiao lifted up her skirt and got into the carriage. "This is the first time you've taken the initiative to take me out. No matter where we go, I won't be disappointed."
Ning Su was a little overwhelmed. He felt that he could not bear all the expectations of one person, but the little girl gave him enough trust.
The sounds of carriages and horses passing through the long street appear particularly clear on New Year's Eve.
There was no curfew that night and people were coming and going in the streets.
The air was filled with the unique smell of gunpowder, and the New Year atmosphere was brought to its peak.
Through the curtains of the carriages, Shen Nanqiao saw many people harnessing their carriages and heading out of the city.
"Where are we going?" she asked curiously.
"Let's go to Longfu Temple and be the first to burn incense." Ning Su put the spare cloak on Shen Nanqiao's shoulders. "It's late at night, and it's still a little cold."
Shen Nanqiao's eyes suddenly lit up and he no longer cared about his cloak.
It is said that Longfu Temple is extremely popular. Although the abbot does not see people often, this does not stop people from flocking to it.
In her previous life, she had wanted to go and pay her respects, but the rules of Pingyuan Marquis's Mansion were strict and she was not favored, so she never had the chance.
"Do you want to go too?" Ning Su asked her with a raised eyebrow.
The little girl's thoughts were written all over her face.
"Is that okay?" Her eyes sparkled with a hint of pleading, "Or should we go to the place you arranged first?"
The fireworks outside the car window made Ning Su's red clothes look warm.
"If you want to go, I'll take you there. You don't have to worry about the original arrangements." He lifted the curtain of the carriage and told the driver, "Leave the city."
Shen Nanqiao felt a secret joy in his heart.
From childhood to adulthood, except when her mother was still alive, almost no one would meet her requests without hesitation.
Even a grandmother would have to consider whether the request was excessive and whether it was appropriate.
But Ning Su's unhesitating and straightforward response gave her a sense of fearlessness and made her feel inexplicably comfortable.
"It's just a trip out of town, is there any need to be so happy?"
Ning Su admitted that sometimes he really didn't understand girls' minds.
Shen Nanqiao turned around and smiled, not knowing how to explain that she was not actually planning to leave the city.
"No one has ever agreed to my request so readily." She simply lifted the carriage curtain. "I was prepared to be rejected."
Ning Su's heart ached because of these casual words. A legitimate young lady was so excited about such a trivial matter.
One can imagine what kind of life she lived in the Shen family.
"Just tell me what you want to do in the future. Don't worry about it." Ning Su's tone was a little conceited. "But in the capital, there is nothing I can't satisfy."
Shen Nanqiao's eyebrows were curved.
"Then I'll make a note of it."
Many people went out of the city on New Year's Eve, but Ning Su was a good horse and soon left everyone far behind.
After about a cup of tea, the outline of Longfu Temple came into view and the sound of Buddhist scriptures could be heard from afar.
As you get closer, even the air is filled with the scent of sandalwood, and the apricot-yellow temple walls look particularly dazzling under the lights.
Shen Nanqiao was inexplicably excited. After her rebirth, she became more awed by ghosts and gods.
"I heard that the abbot of Longfu Temple is a truly enlightened monk, and he rarely sees outsiders."
Ning Su helped her get off the carriage, tied her cloak tighter, and adjusted the brim of her hat, then they walked towards the main hall together.
"The late emperor granted him the title of Fangwai Zhenren, and he is not bound by any restrictions. Even if the current emperor himself comes, he can avoid seeing him if he wants."
That is indeed a master.
Shen Nanqiao held Ning Su's hand and went up the stairs. There were a total of 108 steps in Longfu Temple. After reaching the top, the main hall could be seen.
It was not yet midnight, but many people could already be seen waiting there, ready to be the first to burn incense.
"If you want to rob, you can ask someone to arrange it..."
Shen Nanqiao immediately shook his head.
"This kind of thing is only possible if you are sincere. If you can't get it, it can only be said that it is not fate." She turned around and looked at him, "But even if you can't get it, it doesn't matter."
"It's really okay." Ning Su walked forward with her, "If you want to achieve anything, just make a wish to me. I am more effective than the Buddha."
Shen Nanqiao secretly apologized to the Bodhisattva on his behalf in her heart. As she was praying silently, she saw a little monk hurriedly walking towards her from a distance, with his hands clasped together and said to her.
"Could this lady donor please move to the backyard? The abbot has something to ask you."
