Not far from the restaurant, there are stalls selling masks, like vendors in the Western Regions. They not only have the traditional Central Plains style, but also have many masks with exotic characteristics.

Shao Guan saw a white wolf mask hanging on the top corner at a glance. The silver mane was drawn vividly, and the wolf eyes made of light blue tulle looked like cold stars, majestic and majestic.

He reached out and took off the white wolf mask, and just about to say something, his eyes suddenly went dark, and someone tied the belt on the back of his head lightly, obviously it was Murong Xing who put a mask on him.

"Stupid little fox, very pretty." Murong Xing stroked Shao Guan's hair gently with his warm palm, and his voice was smiling.

"How can anyone say that a fox is stupid."

Shao Guan glanced at the bronze mirror next to the stall, and saw the fox face on his face with narrowed eyes and drooping ears, which was indeed a bit cute.

"Then do you like this white wolf mask?" Shao Guan raised his wrist, put the mask on Murong Xing's face for comparison, and asked with a smile.

Murong Xing leaned slightly, leaned close to Shao Guan's ear, and chuckled lightly: "If Your Highness likes it, I will like it."

"Boss, how much are these two masks in total?"

The merchant from the Western Regions spoke blunt Central Plains dialect. He glanced at the white wolf mask in Shao Guan's hand, and seemed a little surprised.

"My son has a good vision. In our place, the white wolf is the totem of the grassland, the most loyal, brave, and intelligent animal on the grassland. However, people in the Central Plains don't seem to like wolves that much."

Murong Xing took the white wolf mask from Shao Guan, put it on, and took out a piece of silver from his sleeve: "It doesn't matter, as long as he likes it."

The peddler smiled knowingly when he saw the intimate behavior of the two handsome young men in fine clothes.

"The two young masters are planning to go to the fireworks and lantern festival, right? Wufeng Tower is two streets away. From the highest floor, you can see the whole Chang'an city, and you can see the fireworks that are going on that day most clearly. Young master, are you interested in going to see it? ?"

The fireworks in the night sky are still grand and bright, Chang'an City is still controlling gunpowder, and I don't know how Murong Xing managed to get so many fireworks for his own benefit.

There are also tourists beside me who are whispering in amazement.

"Look, the fireworks that just bloomed in the sky look like hydrangeas?"

"Wouldn't some son specially arrange this for his lover?"

"Who is so lucky to have such a lover, it's really enviable..."

Murong Xing thanked the vendor, then suddenly covered Shao Guan's reddish ear tips with his hand, and said in a low voice, "Since Your Highness is embarrassed to listen, let's not stay here...Your Highness thinks that my lover is still Are you qualified?"

The tips of the ears under the fingertips were burned a little more. Fortunately, Shao Guan wore a fox mask on his face so that no one would see him as strange: "...unqualified!"

The angry young man turned around and was about to leave. He was bumped into by the crowd, and he was a little bit scared. He turned his head to look at Murong Xing: "...I'll give you another chance and try to pass."

The phoenix eyes under the mask were filled with a gentle smile, Murong Xing held Shao Guan's hand tightly, and interlocked his fingers: "Okay, remember to follow me closely, there are many people here, be careful if you get lost."

The two walked slowly along the street, buying candied gourds, sugar paintings, and small lanterns that children would play with.

Shao Guan took a bite of the candied haws, watched Murong Xing line up behind a group of parents leading their children to buy realgar wine, and said helplessly, "What are you buying this for?"

Murong Xing took a small bottle of realgar wine, lowered his head and bit into a candied haws that Shao Guan had eaten half, and slightly hooked his thin lips: "Your Highness will know in a while."

The Wufeng Building was built by the Ministry of Industry two years ago to celebrate the Lantern Festival. It can be regarded as the highest place in the entire Chang'an City except for the Imperial Palace.

During festive seasons, this place will be open to ordinary people. Folk festivals are not as strict as those in the palace. Even though the Double Ninth Festival has not yet arrived, tonight's lantern festival is also very lively.

Shao Guan was led by Murong Xing to the top of the tallest building, and was bumped by a child who ran over unexpectedly, and his clothes were immediately splashed with water.

The child looked at Shao Guan Huagui's robe, and seemed a little frightened, but the woman who was chasing up from behind pulled him and slapped him.

He scolded: "You monkey, I told you not to run, don't run, now you have bumped into a nobleman and soiled his clothes, you are going to die!"

A child accidentally bumped into it, Shao Guan didn't care much at all, seeing the woman beating hard, he quickly stretched out his hand to stop it.

"Ma'am, this child didn't do it on purpose, just wash off some dirt."

Shao Guan knelt down, looked at the child's face flushed from crying, and put the newly bought candy cake into his hands: "Don't cry, brother doesn't blame you, this is candy cake, do you like it?"

The child nodded timidly, then was dragged by his mother to thank Shao Guan, and then disappeared into the crowd.

Murong Xing pulled Shao Guan to his side, eyes drooping slightly, looking at the dazed eyes of the young man beside him, he said in a low voice: "Does Your Highness like children very much?"

Shao Guan looked at Murong Xing, and said in a low voice but seriously, "Children are always ranked behind sweethearts."

Murong Xing's eyes darkened slightly, and a smile appeared on the corners of his lips: "All I need is Your Highness, that's enough."

Unexpectedly, the young man who was always embarrassed to say some explicit love words in a place other than the bed lowered his eyes slightly and responded.

"I only need you, that's enough."

On the top of Wufeng Tower, the night wind was a bit chilly.

Murong Xing took off the dark black robe and put it on for Shao Guan, leading him to a corner where there was no one around.

"How did you find this place?"

"I have inspected Wufenglou several times, and no one knows better than me where the doors are open and where they are locked."

While Murong Xing answered patiently, he took out a small bottle of realgar wine he had just bought on the street, dipped his index finger in the wine, and touched Shao Guan's forehead.

"Your Highness, please take off your forehead. After the Double Ninth Festival in a few days, the palace must have very complicated etiquette. Your Highness will have to be busy until late to return to the East Palace to rest... Let's treat it as an early holiday, okay?"

"Ah."

The slightly cold wine painted a "king" character on his forehead.This is a folk custom. It is said that on the Double Ninth Festival, writing words with realgar wine on the forehead of a child can protect the child from illness and disaster during the year.

"Climbing again, writing again... I'm not a child anymore."

Murong Xing pressed Shao Guan's hand that was about to wipe off the drink from his forehead, held his wrist, put it on his waist, and hugged the slender young man into his arms.

"Your Highness is indeed not a child anymore. However, I still want His Highness to be free from illness and disaster..."

The ending of the words is slightly hoarse and shallow, like a sincere prayer when burning incense to pray for blessings, but those phoenix eyes are burning with straightforward love and doting, like the night sky has merged into it, dark colors are surging, the galaxy is brilliant, and it is like A kind of blasphemy.

But in the world of mortals, if there is someone who both cherish each other, Shao Guan can't care about anything else.

The mask was taken off and put aside, thin lips pressed against the boy's brows, nose tip, and finally kissed his lips.

There are still bustling crowds at the bottom of Wufeng Tower.

Murong Xing pulled his outer robe to cover Shao Guan's face, while holding the boy's chin, he deepened the kiss.

"As long as you are well... I will be free from illness and disaster."

It was already Xu time when we returned to the East Palace.Fortunately, when Murong Xing left, he had already greeted the servants, and almost as soon as he entered the bedroom, there were servants who prepared hot water and some snacks.

Murong Xing raised his hand to screen the slave away, and tested the temperature of the water in the barrel with his hands.

"Your Highness should be tired today. There is still an early morning tomorrow. Let's rest early after taking a bath. I will go to the side hall to wash up later."

Shao Guan waited for Murong Xing to finish the medicinal diet, then nodded and said, "Okay...will you come over tonight?"

Of course it is coming.

But Murong Xing saw Shao Guan's evasive eyes, a smile flashed across his eyes, and teased him deliberately: "Does Your Highness want me to come?"

I don't want you to come over, I ask what are you doing?

I hate you for loading a log.

Shao Guan gritted his teeth, pushed the man out, and closed the palace door with a bang: "Will love come or not!"

After he took a shower and changed his clothes, spread the quilt and slept with a cup of tea, he was glued to him like a dog by Murong Xing.

However, he was so sleepy that his eyelids were about to close, and the person who was holding him from behind was dishonest, and his fingertips were gently pulling at the skirt of his clothes, scratching across his skin, fanning the flames.

"...Didn't you say you should rest earlier!?" Shao Guan gritted his teeth, feeling that his voice was already a little soft.

The long and narrow phoenix eyes are like a wild wolf looking at its prey, only thinking about how to tear the person in its arms to pieces.

"The imperial doctor said, you should not be tired on weekdays, and it's getting late now, let's rest earlier..."

Murong Xing raised his eyebrows, his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly: "Is Your Highness worried about me?"

"..."

"Since the imperial physician said it, I also don't think I should be too tired." Murong Xing gave a low laugh.

Staring at Shao Guan's almost red ear tips, he said slowly, "Then what does Your Highness think?"
