During the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, as soon as Xiao Yuan sat down, he whispered to An Ning about the eighth son of the emperor.

An Ning was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at Xu Xianjun.

Xu Xianjun was coated with a thick layer of fat powder on his face, and the rouge was also very heavy, which should be used to cover his face.

He still smiled gently as usual, and was very quiet and peaceful.

An Ning shook Xiao Yuan's hand: "I know about this, don't worry." ”

After Emperor Feng Jing came, everyone got up and saluted, Emperor Feng Jing had a smile on his face, and after sitting down, he shouted a word of flattening.

Everyone got up and sat down, and Emperor Fengjing raised his glass to worship the heavens and the earth.

The palace banquet is the same every year, the procedure is roughly the same, An Ning and Xiao Yuan are not uncommon at all, and after Emperor Feng Jing said something, the palace banquet officially began, and An Ning whispered to Xiao Yuan: "It's snowing outside." ”

Xiao Yuan snorted, and looked at the already cold dishes on the table in front of him, some of which had white fat on them, and he couldn't eat them at all.

"Father gave me some jerky, do you want to eat it?"

Xiao Yuan asked An Ning, and An Ning shook his head: "You can eat." ”

She saw that Xiao Yuan had a strand of hair loose, so she raised her hand and brought it to him behind her ear.

The six princesses sitting directly opposite An Ning saw this scene and smiled at An Ning, and An Ning also smiled back.

Waiting until the end of the palace banquet, the snow outside had already fallen a very thick layer, and when he came out of the Tianyuan Palace, An Ning kept supporting Xiao Yuan: "The road is slippery, be careful." ”

When the Zhengjun Ping clan of the Six Imperial Maidens saw An Ning and Xiao Yuan walking in front, he coughed vigorously, and made eye contact with the Six Imperial Maidens.

The six princesses didn't see it, and Ping snorted angrily: "Don't you beg me." ”

Later, the Seventh Imperial Maiden and Shi Zhengjun followed, and Shi Zhengjun looked at Xiao Yuan's back with some envy: "The fifth sister is really good to the fifth brother-in-law." ”

The Seventh Imperial Maiden hid a trace of coldness in her eyes, hooked the corners of her mouth, and showed a gentle smile: "I will also help you." ”

Seeing this, Ping Zhengjun stepped on the six princesses vigorously.

The sixth princess hugged her feet and cried out in pain, and Ping Zhengjun sneered: "What's the matter? I don't walk carefully, where did you run into it?" You said that you are not as good as me, a big woman can't even walk well, how can people say that your grandfather is from home." ”

The six princesses were all angry, glaring at Ping Zhengjun vigorously.

Ping Zhengjun snorted coldly, raised his head and walked forward.

The Sixth Imperial Maiden gritted her teeth and said, "Why don't you fall to your death." ”

An Ning helped Xiao Yuan into the carriage, and glanced back, and the princesses and princes also got into the carriages of their respective families.

An Ning got into the carriage and was stuffed with a hand stove in his hand, Xiao Yuan was dressed in a big hat, holding a small hand stove in his hand and sitting in the car, with a thick blanket on his lap.

An Ning picked up the blanket, sat side by side with Xiao Yuan, and put the blanket on the laps of the two people.

In this way, the two of them talked with each other, and soon returned home.

After entering the house, Xiao Yuan was busy with having two large bowls of beef noodles boiled and brought over.

The white noodles are thinly pulled, and a large spoonful of diced beef stew is poured on top, and spicy seeds are poured on top, and just looking at it makes me feel very fragrant.

The two of them ate a big bowl of beef noodles vigorously.

After eating noodles, I kept vigil in the middle of the night, listened to the sound of firecrackers outside, and then fell asleep.

After sleeping for a few hours, it was dawn, and I had to get up quickly and put on the court clothes and enter the palace to worship the sky.

The first day of the first month has passed, and on the second day of the first month, it is the time to visit relatives and friends, and until the fifteenth day of the first month, it is generally spent in visiting relatives and friends.

On the second day of the first lunar month, An Ning and Xiao Yuan went to the palace of the great queen as guests.

In the third year of junior high school, I was supposed to go to the Three Emperors' Mansion, but An Ning entered the palace.

She went to the Fengji Palace, and after entering, she gave Emperor Fengjing a snort: "Mother, the son heard that the eighth brother was seriously ill, and he was willing to ask the mother emperor to summon the eighth brother to Beijing for treatment." ”

Emperor Fengjing couldn't stop the New Year's Day, and he was flipping through a book at this time, and he was stunned for a moment when he heard An Ning say this.

"Do you know what will happen if Ah Shuo is summoned? What will happen to sending envoys to the Di clan along the way? What will the Di people think of my Great Qi Dynasty? What will they think of me? Since the establishment of the Great Qi Dynasty, how many royal princes have gone to the border to make peace, how many have died in other places, and they can't return to Beijing until they die, not only Ah Shuo, but there are countless sons in our Great Qi Dynasty who have died because of their relatives. ”

An Ning looked up at Emperor Fengjing: "Mother Emperor, the son is willing to be the envoy, personally go to the Di clan to pick up the eighth brother, and ask for the permission of the father." ”

Emperor Fengjing's face darkened: "No need to say any more, you can retreat." ”

"The Mother. ”

An Ning wanted to say something, and Emperor Fengjing called the guards in: "Pull the five princesses out." ”

An Ning was taken out by two guards, she gritted her teeth, and knelt directly on the snow in the courtyard: "Mother Emperor, Erchen is willing to bring the eighth brother back." ”

Emperor Fengjing sat in the hall, listening to An Ning's loud shout, his face became more and more ugly.

She took a deep breath and took the book to read, not paying any attention to Anning.

After more than an hour, Emperor Feng Jing said to Yu Ling: "How about going to see the five princesses?"

Yu Ling's face was full of anxiety when she went out and came in: "Your Majesty, the five princesses are still kneeling outside, the snow is falling again, and the five princesses are about to become snowmen." ”

Emperor Feng Jing's hand holding the book trembled: "Let her." ”

Luan and Gong

Xu Xianjun stumbled and almost fell, but Mo Qing hurriedly helped him: "Master, do you want to persuade the five princesses?"

Xu Xianjun waved his hand: "I can't go, I can't go, I can only pretend that I don't know about it." ”

He waved his hand to let Mo Qing out.

When he was the only one in the room, the tears in Xu Xianjun's eyes couldn't stop falling out.

When the Eighth Prince and his relatives left, he cried hard behind his back, but when he said goodbye to the Eighth Prince, he didn't dare to cry, and he could only smile on his face.

Now the life and death of the eighth prince is uncertain, and the fifth princess knelt in the snow and begged His Majesty to take the eighth prince back to Beijing, but I am afraid that she will not be able to do so.

He was not afraid of anything else, but he was afraid that the five princesses would be frozen or kneel to their knees.

On such a cold day, the ground is covered with bluestone slabs, and when I kneel for a while, the cold air will freeze my whole body along my legs, and I knelt for more than an hour, but I am afraid that the five princesses are about to freeze into ice.

The snow outside was getting heavier and heavier, Xu Xianjun sat on the bed and wiped his tears, he told himself, hurry up and finish the tears, if they dry up, they won't be able to flow again.

At this time, he could only hide, he couldn't go to the Fengji Hall at all, he couldn't persuade the five princesses, and he couldn't help the five princesses intercede.

If he comes forward, it will only make it worse, and it will only make His Majesty more angry.

Soon, An Ning's plea to Emperor Fengjing to take the eighth prince back to Beijing spread outside the palace.

Those courtiers received the news in their mansions, and the royal ladies received the news earlier.

The Eleventh Imperial Maiden was getting together with the Seven Imperial Maidens and the Ten Imperial Maidens to listen to the music.

On the stage, a play with a full moon was staged, the eleventh princess took a sip of wine, and the entourage of the seventh princess came over to talk about it.

The Seventh Empress drank a glass of wine: "Eleventh sister, don't you go to the palace to take a look." ”

The eleventh princess laughed: "Look at what, it's good to have the fifth sister here, isn't she reckless, then let her kneel, I'll see how long she can kneel, hum, I'm afraid that not only will I not be able to pick up the eighth sister, but the mother queen who has to be recruited will not want to see her." ”

The Twelfth Princesses poured a glass of wine and clinked glasses with the Eleventh Princess: "No matter what you say, it's your own sister, and you don't have to worry." ”

"When did she worry about me?"

The eleventh princess sneered again and again: "I am her own sister, she saw me, it is better to see the twelfth sister You have a good face, pulling a face all day long, as if I owe her how much money I don't pay back, I look at her and get tired." ”
