Chinese New Year's Eve.

On Chinese New Year's Eve in previous years, Lei Xiao drank and feasted with his concubines in the harem. This year, he made an exception and summoned Prince Gong's family into the palace.

"Niangniang, the king and Prince Gong are really brothers, and they made an exception for Prince Gong. The one who helped Shisu comb her hair was the old palace maid who had served her for many years, and she chatted with Shisu while combing her hair.

"Yes, the king's favorite is Prince Gong. Shisu looked at this hairstyle, and heard that it was fashionable to look like a lying cloud now.

"Lord Gu's daughter happens to be married to two brothers, so she can also take this opportunity to meet. The old palace maid continued, "I heard that Princess Gong gave birth before, and the side concubine was not able to visit. ”

"You people gossip all day long. Shiso looked back at her.

"The mother forgives her sins, and blames the slave for having a lot of mouths. The old palace maid hurriedly knelt down.

"Get up quickly, I'm not blaming you, I'm reminding you that if you talk too much, you will lose," Shisu waved her hand to get her up, "You have been with me for so many years, and you should know my temper." I don't like gossip the most. In the past, there were few people in the harem, and it didn't hurt to say anything. Now it is different from the past, there are more concubines in the palace, and there are more right and wrong. You are the person next to me, if you don't care about your mouth, people will think that I want to use your mouth to talk nonsense. ”

"The slave is old and confused, and she will not dare to do it in the future. ”

"Okay, it's good to know. Shisu looked in front of the mirror, "Help me put the hairpin in." ”

Lei Xiao summoned Prince Gong's family to celebrate the festival together, but did not mention it to Zisu. So since she found out, she has been feeling uncomfortable. Over the years, many things have been discussed between the two, but now, she has become the one who has been told. Lei Xiao likes this younger brother Yes, but that was before he ascended the throne. After Prince Gong's mother was given a burial, there was a gap between their brothers. Now, Lei Xiao suddenly did this, is it to make up for it? If there is no relationship between Concubine Gong and Princess Gong, it is reasonable to think like this. But with this relationship, she couldn't help but think in other directions. Two stupid people, young and beautiful, are not as good as a pot-bellied person?

On last year's Chinese New Year's Eve, the protagonist was Xiyan, who had just entered the palace. This year, Concubine Li and Concubine Shu did not become the center. Sitting next to Lei Xiao can only be the princess and the side concubine.

Chao Yan was very happy when he learned that he was going to enter the palace, and he started preparing early.

"Si Zhao, is my mother going to take you to see your aunt?" she teased her son while dressing him. The month-old Lethauer screamed and drooled.

"Does he understand?" Lei Yao saw that her sadness gradually disappeared as the child grew up, and he felt a lot of comfort in his heart.

"He's laughing, maybe he understands. ”

"Really? Si Zhao, smile at Daddy. Lei Yao saw that he had changed his clothes, so he took it and lifted the baby high, making the baby laugh even happier.

Chao Yan smiled gently, watching their father and son have fun.

All of them are wearing joy. Xiyan's belly is already very large, and since her body has not gained weight, the proportions of the whole person look a little out of balance. She walked very slowly, basically walking for a while before resting.

When Xiyan came in, the people were almost there.

She was very happy to see her sister sitting below, but because of Lei Xiao beside her, she could only smile and nod her head, and then secretly winked at her sister when others were not paying attention.

The perilla is graceful and noble, and Concubine Li continues her consistent style, decorated with gorgeous and exquisite. Concubine Shu is more restrained, but the colors are brighter and more festive than the ones she usually wears. Xiyan wore a very simple outfit, basically without any headgear. She felt that her body was heavy, and if she carried so many heavy objects, she was afraid that her neck would be broken. She was dressed in a lotus-colored loose gown, with a pale snow green jacket and white raw edges. Compared to others, it is much bleaker.

Chao Yan looked at her sister, it had been nearly a year since she said goodbye last time. Xiyan is about to become a mother, but the naughty energy in her eyes is still the same as before.

"King, I want to see the little prince. Xiyan saw that Lei Xiao was in a good mood, so he asked.

"Okay, let Princess Gong pick it up, and I will take a look. ”

A eunuch hurriedly ran to Lei Yao's side and bowed down to deliver the order.

Chao Yan carefully held the child, followed behind the eunuch, and walked up to the banquet platform on a high place.

"It's so handsome. Zi Su hugged it, "It is a mold to get out of the same mold with the prince." ”

"Hehe, it's good. Look at this eye, you know that it is a clever little guy. Lei Xiao stretched out his hand to tease him, and Lei Zhao giggled, scratching his little hands around, very excited.

"He seems to like you, my lord. Xiyan looked at this cute little thing and said with a smile. "It seems that only I am afraid of you. ”

"Really?" Lei Xiao squinted at her, "I don't think so." ”

Xiyan didn't answer, took Lei Zhao over, and said softly, "Sister, you have suffered." ”

Chao Yan smiled, "With him, it's nothing to suffer a little." ”

Xiyan reached out and held her sister's hand, looking at her and smiling.
