Chapter 167: The Third Day of the Lunar New Year

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, it was finally time to go back to my parents' home. The crown prince loves the crown princess, and of course he wants to accompany her back to pay New Year's greetings. The Luo family is both a prime minister and a royal relative, and this status is naturally more respectful. This year alone, the emperor and the concubines gave the Luo family many times more gifts than in previous years.

Prime Minister Luo Cheng has always been incorruptible, and he rarely accepts other subordinates and contemporaneous offerings unless necessary courtesy. So this year is the same, only thank you for receiving the rewards of the emperor and the princes, and the other subordinates are more streamlined with offerings, and they still don't accept it as usual.

This year is the first time that Luo Zijin, who has become the crown princess, has brought His Royal Highness the crown prince back to the door. Although both of them are noble, the prince has passed the word early in the morning, and this time it is best to have a family banquet. Therefore, Prime Minister Luo Cheng did not dare to be extravagant, but only assigned the stewards to take care of it. These stewards have always followed Luo Zijin before, and this style of acting has also been passed on from her. Besides, she actually sent Xiao Lan back to pass the word, so she should not be extravagant. Therefore, in addition to the rules that must be prepared, the Luo family is also much easier.

When the crown princess returned to the door, she was accompanied by His Royal Highness the Prince, and the place where she took over was the newly built palace in the house. Specially prepared for the Crown Princess and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. First, the crown prince and the crown princess entered the palace and ascended to the throne, and Prime Minister Luo Cheng led the family to bow down according to the ceremony. Although Luo Zijin didn't want to accept his father's gift, the rules were like this, and even the prince couldn't say anything.

However, as soon as this big gift passed, before Luo Zijin could speak, the prince took the first step to spread the words of the free gift. is enough to show how much he attaches importance to Prime Minister Luo and the crown princess. The crown prince and the crown princess took their seats, and Prime Minister Luo Cheng's seat was second only to them. People of other clans with high seniority and their own official positions also sat down according to their own courtesies. Because it's not just Prime Minister Luo Cheng. Therefore, what everyone said was only to be loyal to the country.

At noon, everyone sat down for a feast. Singing, dancing and opera are also staged in turn, so lively. However, Luo Zijin raised his eyes and saw that his younger brothers and sisters were not there, and Erniang was a concubine, so she couldn't appear on such an occasion. Even the people who served by him were the wives of the uncles and brothers in the clan who had official positions. The whole family came together. can be alone, lacking the person closest to her blood and bones.

But fortunately, there are still Xiao Gong and Xiao Lan by her side. And. Luo Zijin saw that his father had actually been keeping an eye on their side. Obviously, the father was worried about the little gong. I haven't seen him for a few months, and I heard that Xiao Gong was once punished and returned to take medicine, so how can he not worry. But he didn't mean to blame Luo Zijin. He knows. Luo Zijin will punish her. It must be for her good.

After the luncheon, the rest of the family temporarily retreated, which gave Luo Zijin and Luo Chengxiang a chance, and the father and daughter and brothers and sisters were also able to reunite for a short time. Without waiting for Luo Zijin's orders, Prime Minister Luo Cheng had already let her younger siblings wait outside. As soon as Luo Zijin spoke, the prince also echoed and said that he wanted to meet, so Prime Minister Luo naturally called them all in.

As soon as I came in, a few younger siblings. The big ones are fine, the small ones are a few. Especially Luo Zipei, who is very close to Luo Zijin, wants to get close to her sister with red circles. But he was still pulled by Erniang, who came with him, and knelt down to ask the prince and the princess to be safe, so that he had to come forward and meet and talk to his sister. In order to let them talk to their heart's content, the prince invited the prime minister to go to the study to talk with him after rewarding them with some things.

The prime minister was a little reluctant to leave, but this time was the most appropriate time, and he still wanted to say something to the prince in person. So he invited the prince to his study, where he often discussed. Of course, after putting everyone aside, Prime Minister Luo Cheng began to be loyal like the prince. The words he said were exactly the same as those conveyed by Luo Zijin on the night of marriage.

This, the prince has believed in this from the beginning, and he has helped Prime Minister Luo Cheng and solemnly thanked him for his support. And he is grateful to him for being a father and willing to marry his daughter to him. And promised that as long as he has one day, he will cherish and love Luo Zijin.

Prime Minister Luo Cheng didn't know that the prince's health was fine, but he was very moved by the prince's ability to say this. Even if you fall on your knees, thank him. Fortunately, he was pulled by the prince in time, and this kneeling did not succeed.

But at the moment, they had avoided being alone in the study, so it was not appropriate to talk for too long. What's more, there's nothing to negotiate right now. They want to pass on the news, and there are still many opportunities and methods they can have, and they are not in a hurry to do so.

So, the prince suggested playing chess with Prime Minister Luo Cheng to pass the time. It just so happens that Prime Minister Luo Cheng also likes to play chess to entertain himself on weekdays, and of course he agreed. There was a chessboard in the study, so the two of them opened the door and played chess quietly. The people passed by, and they prepared refreshments and sent them in, and they didn't dare to disturb for a while.

In the end, the prince plays against Murong Shuo on weekdays, and this chess skill is exquisite. In a short time, he killed almost no piece of Luo Chengxiang. If he hadn't kept the back move and secretly made many steps, presumably Prime Minister Luo would not have lasted until now. Although Prime Minister Luo likes to play chess, this chess skill is really not flattering. But he loves this, and he is always happy even if he loses. At the end of the game, he had the game covered so that he could study it later.

The crown prince and the crown princess stayed for a limited time. So there is only this game of chess to spare. During this time, I believe that Luo Zijin has also seized the time to catch up with her younger brothers and sisters. Although the younger brothers and sisters were reluctant, Zipei still kept crying, but they were all sensible children, and they didn't make trouble and obediently said goodbye to Luo Zijin. Before leaving, of course, he also received a lot of New Year's gifts prepared by Luo Zijin.

After the prince played chess and joined Luo Zijin, they reluctantly said goodbye and left. Xiaogong and the others followed and returned to the prince's mansion together. Xiaolan grew up in Luofu since she was a child, and her homesickness is certainly much stronger than that of Xiaogong. was full of reluctance, and as soon as she said she was leaving, she couldn't laugh when she was usually giggling. Even the salute that Prime Minister Luo Cheng was preparing to give them was absent-minded.

Xiao Gong originally regarded himself as a passerby, of course, he went everywhere. As long as the crown princess and Murong Shuo are, she can be there. So she didn't have much to do. It's just that I have a gift again, so I'm very happy. Looking forward to what's in the box. In the end, their identities are different, and they all came out of Luofu and followed the marriage of the crown princess. Even the Boxing Rites are packed in beautiful boxes, which are heavy and must be filled with a lot of good things.

Xiao Gong is now in a hurry to go back quickly, so as to quickly "open the gift" and see what good things are in the box. Anyway, according to her guess, since Prime Minister Luo Cheng knew that he was his daughter, he should be more generous. (To be continued.) )
