An Eight-year-old Princess

Yun Shang felt time passed quickly as she spent the morning reading her account books every day and slept in the afternoon. The Lantern festival arrived soon.

Yun Shang was delighted at the coming of the Lantern festival. On the day, Luo Qingyan intended to sleep more with Yun Shang, but Yun Shang got up early in the morning, but she didn't read account books as usual. Without combing her hair, she put on her cloak and stood outside with the thermos in her hands, watching the two madams directing the servants to hang the lanterns.

A variety of lanterns were all hung up such as golden fish shaped, rabbit shaped... They looked very interesting, full of childishness. Yun Shang couldn't help laughing at this sight.

As soon as Luo Qingyan went out, he saw Yun Shang looking up at the lanterns and smiling happily. With a smile on his face, he went to Yun Shang and stroked her head, smoothing her slightly messy long hair, smiling, "What are you looking at? What makes you so happy?"

Yun Shang turned to look at Luo Qingyan's side face and said with a smile: "I am looking at the lanterns. Speaking of that, I hardly have celebrated the lantern festival. As you know, all the festivals in the palace are just about palace banquets, full of women who make themselves up gorgeously. Later, I was sent out of the palace. In fact, I stayed with grandfather most of the time, but there was no woman around him who could help manage all these things. And he himself didn't care about these festivals. This is the first time in my life that I feel like I'm celebrating a festival."

Hearing this, Luo Qingyan took Yun Shang into his arms and said with a smile, "Well, in that case, I have to thank you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even know what the Lantern Festival is like."

They stood under the eaves for a long time. After Qin Yi brought some food, they went into the room together.

"Sweet dumplings are often served on the Lantern Festival in the State of Xia. And we have dumplings in the the State of Ning. so I have asked them to prepare both sweet dumplings and dumplings, you could eat whatever you like." Qin Yi took the food out of the box and placed them on the table.

"The dumplings are stuffed with cabbages and meats, and sweet dumplings are filled with sesame seeds. Your highnesses, please have a try."

Yun Shang ate a dumpling and nodded, "It's very delicious." Then she put a sweet dumpling in her mouth and after a while, she stuck out her tongue and said, "So sweet."

Qin Yi and Luo Qingyan looked at her and laughed.

"Your highness, you seemed very happy today." Qin Yi said gently.

Yun Shang couldn't help laughing, "Of course I'm happy. Today is the Lantern Festival, also a day for family reunion. My grandfather sent a message to me, saying that he will arrive at Jin city today."

Hearing this, Luo Qingyan suddenly realized why Yun Shang was so excited today. It turned out that Xiao Yuanshan was coming.
