The queen is crazy and spoiled, and the tyrant bows to her

Chapter 488 The 1st New Year

Ji Wuyuan smiled slowly. He raised his hand and stroked Jiang Wantang's cheek, his gesture tenderly: "Tang'er, this is the first New Year we spend together..."

He paused halfway through his words, slightly distracted.

Because, this may also be their last New Year.

Jiang Wantang blinked and looked at him strangely.

Ji Wuyuan reacted and quickly calmed down. He smiled gently and said, "So, I want to spend this New Year happily with Tang'er and leave behind some beautiful memories."

After saying that, he hugged Jiang Wantang in his arms, holding her tightly.

Jiang Wantang hugged him back.

Under the fireworks, Jiang Wantang heard Ji Wuyuan gently calling her name. He said, "Tang'er, are you willing to spend the next spring with me?"

Jiang Wantang's body stiffened when he heard this, not understanding why he suddenly asked this.

She came out of Ji Wuyuan's arms and looked up at him.

The latter's eyes were very deep, very deep, hiding emotions that Jiang Wantang could not understand.

Jiang Wantang thought he was afraid that she was still thinking about leaving the palace.

So, she raised her hands and hooked them around Ji Wuyuan's neck, instantly closing the distance between them.

Jiang Wantang's clear, moist peach blossom eyes looked straight at him, and said in a serious tone, "Of course."

She said, "Ayuan, I promised to stay by your side and accompany you for the rest of my life, and I will never break my promise."

"We will not only have the next spring year, but many spring years to come."

For a moment, Ji Wuyuan felt mixed emotions and couldn't describe how he felt.

He smiled and said in a hoarse voice, "Okay."

He thought that it was enough for her to think this way.

Afterwards, he asked Jiang Wantang, "What wishes do you want to fulfill in the new year?"

Jiang Wantang looked at Ji Wuyuan's forbearing yet loving gaze in front of her, her expression stunned.

Any wish?

But Ji Wuyuan gave everything he could and couldn't give.

Thinking about it this way, it seemed that she had everything she wanted except freedom.

Then, Jiang Wantang tilted her head back, her charming peach blossom eyes curved into a beautiful arc, and she looked at him with a gentle smile, saying, "I hope that Ah Yuan will live a happy, peaceful and smooth life in the future."

Her tone was gentle, slow, and serious. Her peach blossom eyes were affectionate and gentle. The teardrop mole at the end of her right eye was the color of cinnabar, extremely pure and charming.

As charming as a vixen...

Ji Wuyuan stared at her without blinking, his eyes filled with indescribable darkness and tenderness, lingering on the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, his obsession and attachment visible to the naked eye.

After a long time, he lowered his head and gently kissed her eyebrows, then kissed the charming rosy teardrop mole at the corner of her eye, his posture affectionate and pious.

He said, "Okay..."

"Then I will accept Tang'er's good words."

Jiang Wantang looked at him with a smile, her affectionate peach blossom eyes curved deeply, and her smile was bright and brilliant.

Thanks to the beauty of the crabapple tree, its charming smile keeps spring here.

Ji Wuyuan looked at her deeply, with a tenderness in his eyes that he had never seen before, so deep and unbreakable.

Afterwards, the two hugged each other and quietly looked at the sea of ​​blooming crabapple flowers all over the sky.

For many years to come, even though time has passed, Jiang Wantang still remembers that New Year, when that precious man set off fireworks all over the city for her, lighting up her new life from then on.

......

The fireworks in this city lasted for a long, long time, so long that Jiang Wantang seemed to have witnessed all the prosperity of this life.

She watched for so long that she got tired and then stopped.

Jiang Wantang leaned quietly in his arms, her eyes red and her nose sore. She asked him in a hoarse voice, "How many fireworks did you prepare? Why haven't you finished setting them off after so long?"

Ji Wuyuan hugged her waist, raised his other hand and gently touched her head, and whispered softly: "Yeah, a lot."

"As long as Tang'er wants to see it, it will always be there."

Then, tears fell without warning and uncontrollably.

Jiang Wantang turned around, hugged Ji Wuyuan tightly, buried her head in his arms, and said nothing more.

Ji Wuyuan also hugged her tightly, with one hand raised to pat her back.

Neither of them spoke again, quietly listening to the sound of firecrackers and the noise around them...

Amid the blast of firecrackers throughout the city, the night watchman called out in a long, drawn-out voice: "It's midnight—the New Year has arrived!"

“All things are made new…”

The last melody had not yet faded away when twelve deep bells rang out from the bell and drum tower, and the sound of firecrackers rang out again throughout the city.

At this time, in Xunhuan Tower, Jiang Wantang, who was originally a little sleepy, suddenly became energetic again while leaning in Ji Wuyuan's arms.

She reached out and tightly grasped Ji Wuyuan's arm, and said excitedly, "It's the new year!"

Ji Wuyuan chuckled and nodded, his eyes full of warmth and doting.

He asked softly, "As the new year begins, what are your New Year wishes, Tang'er?"

Jiang Wantang clasped his hands together, closed his eyes, and said in a serious and pious tone: "May Your Majesty be blessed with good health in the new year;"

"May the world be peaceful and prosperous, and the people live in peace and contentment..."

After that, he opened his eyes, smiled and said: "Your Majesty, it's your turn..."

"Okay..." Ji Wuyuan smiled and raised his hand to touch Jiang Wantang's head. His elegant and noble eyes were filled with deep love. He said, "I only wish...my Tang'er, happiness and peace every year."

I promise peace to the whole world and a life of long-lasting happiness to you alone.

Jiang Wantang still had a smile on his face, but he felt mixed emotions in his heart.

At this time, outside the private room, Zhao Yi and his waitress came up with the freshly warmed Tusu wine.

The traditional custom of celebrating the New Year in the Dasheng Dynasty was “setting off firecrackers to get rid of the old year and welcoming the new year with Tu Su”.

'The year ends with the sound of firecrackers, and the spring breeze brings warmth to Tusu.'

With the experience from last time, Zhao Yi knocked on the door this time and then stood outside the private room waiting wisely.

However, Ji Wuyuan opened the door, took the Tu Su wine from his hand, and then closed the door directly without giving him a chance to speak.

"Hey...you..."

"Humph!"

"Praise for sex over friends!"

“That’s what a man is!”

Zhao Yi was indignant and left with a wave of his sleeves.

Ji Wuyuan placed the wine jug in his hand on the table, and his gilded cuffs shone dimly in the candlelight.

He picked up the silver wine pot with lotus pattern and poured himself a cup.

Jiang Wantang had never seen Tu Su wine before, so she looked at it curiously.

Ji Wuyuan laughed and stroked the rim of the green jade cup in his hand with his fingertips. The Tusu wine in the cup had an amber luster, and the clear medicinal aroma matched the movement of his fingertips, which was inexplicably fascinating.

He looked at Jiang Wantang with a smile that was somewhat meaningful, and asked in a bewitching voice, "Tang'er, do you want to drink?"

Jiang Wantang was tempted by him, nodded, and said, "I want to drink."

The smile on Ji Wuyuan's lips deepened.

The candlelight on the table suddenly crackled, illuminating the dark currents hidden in his eyes...
