Chapter 487 Begonia Flame
In her previous life, Jiang Wantang did not live to this day and had never seen the Shengjing New Year.
So, that time she thought that the fireworks display set off by Jamel Xiao was extremely beautiful.
But now it seems that it was just like that back then.
Jiang Wantang was concentrating on watching the fireworks, but what she didn't know was that Ji Wuyuan had been watching her.
Xunhuan Tower is the most prosperous area in the entire capital, and it is also the best place to watch the night view and fireworks.
While drinking and eating, you can also take in the prosperity and splendor of the entire Shengjing City.
Looking at the prosperous and splendor of the city and Jiang Wantang's happy face, Ji Wuyuan suddenly understood more about the meaning of peace and prosperity and protecting the common people.
In the past, he valued hegemony more and wanted to control everything in his own hands.
At this moment, he saw the fireworks of the world and the people of the world.
He thought, since he couldn't give her what she wanted, he would give her a peaceful and prosperous life.
In this way, no matter where she goes in the future, it will become a paradise.
After a while, the fireworks in the city began to gradually die down.
Fireworks were an expensive luxury in the prosperous dynasty. Even wealthy families would only set off some during grand festivals to liven up the atmosphere.
Although ordinary families cannot afford it, they will still set off more firecrackers to celebrate.
Jiang Wantang looked at the fireworks disappearing in the sky and looked away reluctantly.
Ji Wuyuan chuckled at this. He raised his fingertips to brush away the snowflakes on her temples: "Tang'er, do you want to see more?"
Fireworks are like a flash in the pan, short-lived and ephemeral. Jiang Wantang didn't want Ji Wuyuan to spend money again.
So she shook her head and said in a firm tone, "No."
Ji Wuyuan saw through her thoughts, touched her head, and looked at her gently: "But, this is just the beginning..."
However, before he could finish his words, a loud "bang" was heard in the sky, followed by countless "whoosh whoosh whoosh..." sounds coming from all directions...
The fireworks throughout the imperial capital seemed to have received a command and bloomed in unison.
Jiang Wantang's eyes were suddenly illuminated. She looked up and saw that the fireworks had blossomed into the shape of a sea of flowers in the sky, and the flowers blooming in that sea of flowers were - crabapples!
The entire Shengjing City was instantly ablaze, as bright as day.
The ice surface of the moat clearly reflects this magnificent scene, as if both heaven and earth are filled with crabapple blossoms.
In an instant, the whole city was in uproar, the crowds were noisy, and the whole place was in an uproar...
Such a lavish display and such a grand scene were something the people had never seen in all these years.
This is such an unprecedented event that anyone with a bit of common sense can guess who is behind it.
In this capital city, no one can do it except the emperor who is the supreme ruler.
Not to mention the entire sea of crabapple blossoms blooming in the night sky...
As we all know, the Queen Jiang, who was the most favored queen in the harem, had a character "Tang" in her maiden name, which was taken from the "Tang" in the crabapple flower.
The emperor's extreme preference and favor were fully displayed at this moment, and everyone in the city knew about it.
At this moment, Jiang Wantang stared blankly at the sky full of blooming crabapple blossoms. Her moist, peach-like eyes, reflecting the dazzling fireworks, sparkled brightly...
For some reason, she suddenly felt the urge to cry.
Jiang Wantang turned around and looked at Ji Wuyuan beside him, his voice hoarse: "When did you prepare it?"
Ji Wuyuan smiled. He did not answer. Instead, he reached out and hugged Jiang Wantang to sit on the windowsill, holding her waist tightly with both hands to ensure her safety.
The two of them, one standing in front of the windowsill and the other sitting on the windowsill, kissed intimately under the fireworks.
Ji Wuyuan's kiss was gentle and lingering, as if he could never get enough of it.
Thousands of words and a heart full of love were hidden in his addictive kiss.
He knew she liked watching fireworks...
So, on such a special day as today, he prepared fireworks all over the city for her, to bloom just for her.
A sea of crabapple blossoms that belonged to her alone, a sea of crabapple blossoms in full bloom...
Jiang Wantang felt the man's hand clasped around her waist, strong and gentle, just like his soft and affectionate kiss at that moment.
At this time, in a shabby beggar's den in the capital, a woman in tattered clothes was curled up in the corner of the street.
When the whole city was lit up by fireworks, she looked up amid the cheers of the crowd. Her empty and numb eyes suddenly narrowed when she saw the sea of crabapple blossoms.
It was Jiang Wanfu who was thrown out to fend for herself after being tortured in the water dungeon that day.
As she watched, she recalled the fireworks before she fell to her death in her previous life. At that time, she was the emperor's concubine and a woman in Ji Wuyuan's harem.
But now...
She was just a lowly, dirty beggar who was available to anyone.
Thinking of this, Jiang Wanfu's tears fell, full of resentment and unwillingness.
She hates it so much!
Why did she lose so completely after trying again?
Jiang Wanfu looked at the crabapple blossoms blooming in the sky, as if symbolizing the woman's victory. Anger seized her, and she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. Then, her body toppled over and she collapsed into the dirty snow in the corner...
At the same time, in the Foguang Temple outside the capital, Xiao Jingheng, who had shaved his head to become a monk and was kneeling in front of the Buddha to repent, heard the huge commotion in the city and stood up and walked out.
Looking at the sky full of crabapple blossoms over the capital, he subconsciously clenched the Buddhist beads in his hand, then loosened them and smiled bitterly and self-deprecatingly.
The Imperial Master was right. In his entire life, he could neither obtain what he wanted nor let go of what he wanted, and ultimately he could not escape the mundane world.
But once some mistakes are made, there is no way to make up for them or turn back.
Young and hot-tempered, love without knowing it, and lose love forever...
One wrong step leads to all wrong steps, that’s how it is.
......
At that time, in Xunhuan Tower.
The two kissing under the fireworks...
Only when he saw that Jiang Wantang in his arms was almost out of breath did Ji Wuyuan let her go.
Jiang Wantang was panting, looking at him with a pair of blurry eyes, misty.
The latter's eyes were dark, and the desire and emotions in them had not yet completely dissipated.
Ji Wuyuan smiled, raised his hand to wipe the water from the corner of his lips, and asked her in a hoarse voice: "Do you like it?"
Jiang Wantang looked up at the fireworks still blooming in the sky, nodded vigorously, and said, "I like it."
How could you not like this situation?
