Chapter 32 New Year's Eve He Only Looked at Her

The red grass was worn through the gauze and snow was half gone, and the crackling sound of firecrackers rang throughout the capital, and every household gathered happily to share the joy of reunion. Xiao Jin left the palace in the early morning and went to the palace. Although the prince had to ask for apart from living as an adult, it was an old example that he could not defeat when he came to the palace to pay his respects during the holidays.

When he arrived at the palace gate, Xiao Jin turned over and dismounted and headed straight towards Emperor Yongxi's Chang'an Hall. A woman's charming laughter was heard from a distance outside the hall. Xiao Jin was angry and stopped and calmed down. Then he raised his legs into the hall.

"Your Majesty, look, why is this bird so spiritual?" Concubine Li was holding Emperor Yongxi's hand and teasing a bird to play in the hall. When she saw Xiao Jin coming in, she stopped and called out: "Your Highness King Jin has arrived."

Emperor Yongxi sat down on the dragon throne, and then Xiao Jin bowed and greeted him.

Emperor Yongxi was about to speak but couldn't help but cough violently. Concubine Li quickly stepped forward and handed him the teacup. Emperor Yongxi took it and drank a few sips before suppressing the cough. He waved his hand at Xiao Jin to signal him to flatten him.

Xiao Jin stood up and sat down, looked at Emperor Yongxi and asked, "Haven has a cough again recently?"

Emperor Yongxi slowed down and replied: "I'm old, it's okay."

Xiao Jin asked, "Did Doctor Xuan have seen it?"

This cough seemed to have consumed all of Emperor Yongxi's physical strength. He leaned against the dragon pond in exhaustion, waved his hand at Xiao Jin, and murmured with panting, "It's all quack doctors. I'm old, maybe it's useless."

Xiao Jin looked at his father's turbid eyes and realized that he used to be a pair of wise eyes. At some point, these eyes became more and more turbid and confused, as if their souls were removed, leaving only an empty body.

Concubine Li stepped forward and gently squeezed Emperor Yongxi's shoulder, and advised softly with a faint crying voice: "Don't say such things again during the New Year."

Emperor Yongxi was silent and patted her hand gently. While speaking, Xiao Mu entered the hall and bowed to Emperor Yongxi and Concubine Li in a refreshing manner. "My son has met his father and mother. Today is New Year's Eve. I wish my father a lifetime and a long life."

Emperor Yongxi showed a gratified smile on his face. Concubine Li helped him up. He Xu sat on the dragon collapse and looked at Xiao Mu with a smile: "It's Mu'er, get up quickly."

Xiao Mu got up and saluted to Xiao Jin again and said respectfully: "I have met the emperor brother."

"My brother, don't have to be too polite." Xiao Jin stood up and returned the gift.

Emperor Yongxi ordered someone to give him a seat, and Xiao Mu sat down next to Xiao Jin.

Emperor Yongxi looked at the two brothers and said meaningfully: "Brothers are the same as one's heart. The father is very comforted to see that you two can give up your past grudges."

In this case, Emperor Yongxi would always give advice whenever he saw both of them. It seemed that if he said too much, they would be able to be the same as one with one heart and one virtue.

Xiao Jin replied: "Don't worry, Father, brother Mu and I are brothers. Even if there were some misunderstandings in the past, we could not let go of our deep love."

Xiao Mu also quickly stood up, limped forward a few steps, leaned toward Emperor Yongxi and knelt down and said sincerely: "My son will definitely remember the teachings of his father, respect brothers and love brothers, and be the most idle and kind person."

Emperor Yongxi looked at Xiao Mu lovingly, nodded with satisfaction, then turned to Xiao Jin and asked, "I heard that you are going to the west after the New Year?"

Xiao Jin replied: "The Western Wei has been eyeing my Great Zhou. When I heard the spies' reward, they had already stockpiled a large number of troops outside Jinxia Pass to wait for an opportunity. After the New Year, I plan to go there to explore the truth and reality, and I hope my father will be right."

Emperor Yongxi sighed secretly, "The wars in the past two years were too frequent, and the treasury was empty, and the people complained. We have been in peace with the Western Wei for the past two years, but it will be difficult to deal with if there is a quarrel."

"The father's painstaking efforts understand that the Western Wei Dynasty has always been ambitions. The minister is only worried that they will take the initiative first. The minister is also trying to find out the other party's reality and makes them afraid."

Seeing the situation, Concubine Li greeted: "Today is New Year's Eve. Don't worry about talking about these things. I asked them to prepare meals. How many drinks do you have with your father?"

Xiao Jin stood up and bowed slightly to Concubine Li, saying, "Thank you for your kindness. There are still some things in Erchen's house. Shu Erchen may have to let down his kindness."

Emperor Yongxi waved his hand and said to Xiao Jin: "Forget it, today is New Year's Eve, so you can go back and gather with the people in the mansion."

Concubine Li smiled and looked at Xiao Mu with a wink and said, "Is there anything else in Mu'er's mansion? I'm willing to stay with your father."

Xiao Jin stood up and smiled and joked, "My son is not as busy as the emperor's brother. Anyway, I am an idle person. The mansion is cold and worried that there is no place to celebrate the New Year? So my father and mother are willing to take it in, but my son is so grateful."

"What a rich and idle person?" As he spoke, a beautiful woman wearing a silver swallowtail butterfly skirt entered the main hall with a slight smile and saluted Emperor Yongxi. Before Emperor Yongxi could react, she smiled at Concubine Li and said with a smile: "It's the New Year, why don't my sister hold a family banquet here?"

Concubine Li still looked happy and replied without any haste: "Sister is afraid that Concubine Jing will not be willing to give her face. If she is willing, she will be very eager to ask for it. I said that this person is so lively." As she said that, she glanced at Xiao Jin and continued: "It's a pity that King Jin said that there is something in the mansion that cannot be kept, otherwise he will call the King of Chu again later. Even if we are the imperial family, we will imitate the ordinary people. Isn't it happy for the whole family to be lively?"

Concubine Jing laughed, and her pair of phoenix eyes slanted Concubine Li replied, "It is of course a fun time to get together, but..." As he said, he glanced at Xiao Mu and said, "But it's less than a hundred days since the Princess Jin passed away. I heard that the Princess Jin and the Princess had a deep relationship. King Jin had just lost his spouse. I'm afraid that even though he was joining us here, he was still enthusiastic and cold, right?"

When Concubine Li heard her mention this again, the smile on her face froze, "It's the New Year, why do you say this?"

Concubine Jing smiled and said, "I forgot that my sister is afraid of mentioning this. I just feel sorry for my son for my sister. King Jin was widowed at a young age, so how could he be able to live with it."

"Ajing----" Seeing that the two wives were put on the stage here again, Emperor Yongxi finally couldn't help but wanted to stop drinking with a calm face, but he coughed violently before he could speak.

Concubine Li stopped arguing and hurriedly went to the front to serve tea and hand it water, relaxed her chest and massaged her back.

Concubine Jing still said to Concubine Li: "Since my sister doesn't welcome her, I won't disturb you here." As she said that, Danfeng raised her eyes and turned to Xiao Jin, shook her sleeves and left Chang'an Palace, and went to her bedroom angrily.

Xiao Jin followed out of the hall, and rushed Concubine Jing to hold her and said, "Auntie, please slow down."

Concubine Jing stopped and replied impatiently: "What are you doing?"

Xiao Jin frowned and advised, "Why is my aunt always so uneasy?"

Concubine Jing twisted the golden veil tightly and said hatefully: "This bitch killed her sister back then. Her sister's sacrifice just passed, but she was happy and happy. She wanted to reunite her family, but I wouldn't let her do it."

Xiao Jin stepped forward and advised, "I understand my aunt's thoughts, but she is very generous. My aunt always has blatant conflicts with her. I am not by your side. I am afraid that my aunt will suffer a loss in this deep palace alone."

Concubine Jing spat fiercely, "I'm afraid of her? That bitch is just a witch in the deceased country. The deceased Li Kingdom has a deep blood hatred with my Great Zhou. I only hate that the emperor, I was confused by this fox spirit, and my eyes were so hard to protect her. Otherwise, how could the old ministers in the court to tolerate this bitch?"

Xiao Jin lowered his voice helplessly and persuaded: "Auntie, be careful when you speak."

Concubine Jing laughed carelessly, "What do I have to worry about? If it weren't for my Chen family, could he be the emperor? The ungrateful bastard actually treated my sister like that and even hurt me..." Concubine Jing choked and couldn't continue talking.

Xiao Jin held her and comforted her: "Auntie, don't worry, I will settle these old accounts sooner or later."

Concubine Jing gradually stopped crying and looked at Xiao Jin with a smile and said, "Fortunately, your wings are hard, and I'm not in vain."

Xiao Jin comforted Concubine Jing for a long time before returning to the King of Jin's Mansion. He went straight to the front hall. The hall was decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and the female family had been waiting for a long time.

When Su Wan saw Xiao Jin enter, she smiled and walked up to him with a smile and took off the crane cloak from his body, took the hot tea offered by the maid and handed it to Xiao Jin and said gently: "The prince has just come back from outside, drink a little hot tea to get rid of the cold."

Mei'er turned her face and didn't look at the two of them.

Xiao Jin took the tea and took two sips and put it down. He glanced over Su Wan and looked into the hall. Seeing Mei'er sitting down, she only showed half the back of her head to him. She felt a little unhappy. She walked straight into the hall and walked around Mei'er's side with an undetectable smile. She reached out and pulled the bun on her head, and then returned to the seat.

Since Xiao Jin entered the hall, the eyes of the female family gathered on him. Seeing the prince who had always been polite and unrestrained to talk and laugh, everyone was not thinking about Mei'er.

Zhou Miaoshu was the first to be calm. She was wearing a colorful phoenix shirt woven with golden silk thread today. She was the most conspicuous among the bright female family members. She wanted to get a lead, but after Xiao Jin entered the door, she didn't even look at her. Zhou Miaoshu got up and walked to Xiao Jin and said to Xiao Jin with grievance: "I would like to pay my respects to my cousin."

Xiao Jin waved his hand and said, "Get up."

With Zhou Miaoshu as an example, the rest of the people reacted and knelt down to ask Xiao Jin for his wishes. Xiao Jin then raised his head, but his eyes only fell on Mei'er.

Today she was wearing a green half-old silk skirt and only had a few simple hairpins, which were not eye-catching in the colorful and colorful colors.

The silly girl, she didn't know how to buy new clothes for herself during the Chinese New Year! She was clamoring to ask for her wages when she went to the study to serve. Could it be that she was short of money? She was careless and didn't consider this level...

Seeing Xiao Jin trance, Su Wan called out as if she was reminded, "Prince, can you hold a banquet?"

Xiao Jin was wandering in a daze, but suddenly Su Wan called him like this and replied, "Okay, let's start a banquet."

The maid held plates of delicious food and arranged them in an orderly manner, and Xiao Jin brought a cup to drink with everyone.

Those little concubines who were unable to see Xiao Jin all year round were eager for this rare opportunity. Seeing that Xiao Jin seemed to be in a good mood today, they took the courage to come forward to toast in groups of three or three. Some of them were also talented, hoping to take this opportunity to win Xiao Jin's green eyes and volunteered to perform their talents at the banquet. For a while, the hall was singing and dancing, and the Hongsleeved moves were very lively.

Xiao Jin had no interest in Qingge and man-dance, and his eyes drifted to Mei'er from time to time. However, Mei'er only sat in the corner and ate and drank Xianglan without any intention of interacting with him. Xiao Jin felt disappointed and drank three or four glasses of wine in a depressed manner.
