The lights are shining, the shadow of the birch candle is faint, and the long and thick eyelashes of Queen Chu hang down and the light shadow is faintly reflected on the obscure eyelids.

Emperor Chongming seemed to know her intentions, and his warm big hand reached out from the side, naturally holding Empress Chu's soft twing, and patting it twice comfortingly, signaling her not to increase her sadness.

Murong Hui still went to call two skillful palace maids to accompany her to turn over the rope, but she only flipped it twice, but she was a little unhappy. She threw away the rope, sat down on the big kang next to the queen mother, silently grabbed a handful of candied fruit from the box, and chewed it tastelessly.

Murong Xuan, who was last year, was just an ignorant child who loved to eat nest candy, but this year she has moved into the Prince's East Palace to live with Murong Peng, and then learned some Wen Tao Wu Strategy, and her childish little face added some old sincerity.

Sure enough, time is like water, never overlapping for a moment, and refusing to stop for a moment.

This year, Chu Zhaohui, Su Duhan and Concubine Du are missing, but a powder-like fifth prince has been added. Concubine Du was poisoned first, and Su Duhan rebelled later, and everyone tacitly did not mention these two people, only some were concerned about Chu Zhaohui, who was still in the border city, but he could endure the bitter cold over there.

Luo Qi had not yet returned to Beijing, and everyone did not know at this time that Chu Zhaohui had already made a decision to stay in the border city. Li Zhifang's 800-mile rush back was only passed into the palace gate a moment ago. Emperor Chongming read it, and his mood was agitated, and he specially brought it to the queen mother.

None of these people sitting there didn't care about Chu Zhaohui, so the Empress Dowager didn't look at herself, and directly ordered Murong Wei to read it to everyone, and what was written on the fold.

Murong Wei stood up as ordered, unfolded Li Zhifang's fold, and looked at the ten lines at a glance, only to see that his blood was surging. She accompanied Chu Zhaohui's words in the recital, sometimes excited, sometimes slaughtering, reproducing the scene of Huang Jie and Ye Renqing's rebellion.

It was the first time that everyone had learned Chu Zhaohui's sonorous words.

Not only was the Empress Dowager overjoyed, but Empress Chu couldn't imagine that her eldest sister, who had always been as soft as water, could say such words, and she couldn't help but applaud.

Reading the situation of breaking off the friendship between mother and son with three rings in the cold snow of Su Dusk, and cutting off robes with all the soldiers, the queen mother slapped her hand on the kang table, and her eyebrows were as cold as frost: "The rebel son does not repent, cares for others, and has committed a heinous crime." Immediately tell Li Zhifang, there is no need for his subordinates to be merciful, and there is no forgiveness on the battlefield. ”

In addition to being angry, he was more happy for Chu Zhaohui. A vine has now grown into a towering tree, and the eldest daughter lives a strong and upright life. Not crushed by repeated adversity.

Absolutely Su Duhan's wolf heart and lungs, she still faced it calmly and said some righteous words.

Murong Wei's heart was more relieved than others. In the past, Su Duhan led an army of 100,000 to kill back to the imperial city, but his aunt had nothing to do and chose to commit suicide in the city gate.

For fear that history would repeat itself in the border city, this time she specially explained to Luo Qi and paid close attention to her aunt's every move, so as not to let her aunt have no choice but to act under grief and anger.

Listening to her aunt's actions, she clearly abandoned this disloyal and unfilial rebel, and would never risk her life to do stupid things again. Especially when she heard that only 2,000 people had fled with Su Duhan, Murong Wei just wanted to laugh and share her happiness at the moment with Wen Wan and Xia Yuzhi, two insiders.

The 100,000 army in the previous life is compared to the current number of 2,000, Su Duhan's defeat has been decided, and that humiliating and tragic past will not befall Xixia again, and now these relatives here will live a healthy life.

Concubine Xu Xian didn't need to be in front of anyone to take Lu Xiufu and the little emperor's godson, and Murong Xuan both died, the Xia family brothers and sisters didn't need to stain the loess with blood, and the uncle and two cousins, as well as the scholarly students of Lishan Academy, didn't need to rise up.

With Guo Shanggong and the others falling, no one in the palace will poison his father and the emperor, and the queen mother will not have gray hair overnight, so he doesn't have to marry Gu Zhengnuo, who has a human face and a beast's heart.

Everything is going to be wonderful. On the Chinese New Year's Eve of the eighth year of Chongming, Murong Wei just wanted to drink a cup to celebrate the victory that had arrived in advance.

The queen mother was in a good mood, and she didn't need to have a table in front of each person when she set up a family banquet on the same day, and ordered Mama Bai to prepare a large round table with curved legs inlaid with rosewood inlaid with luodian, and spread the big red flower brocade tablecloth of Fulu Suxi, which was placed in the main hall of the heavy pavilion, still facing the clear waves under the high platform, and listening to the people playing music through the sound of water.

Mama Bai's face was stretched, like a pot of blooming dahlias, and every furrow on her face seemed to be ironed flat. She got rid of the shackles of millennial religion, and with the permission of the queen mother, she lit an everlasting lamp for her brother in the small Buddha hall, and now everything is going well, and she no longer has to worry about it all the time.

Today, Mama Bai deliberately changed into a new purple-red calamus dark pattern palace dress, wiped her forehead with velvet, and inserted a golden hairpin, with a full smile on her face, and held a night banquet in the heavy pavilion.

Seeing the sixteen cold dishes and four fruit plates neatly arranged, Mama Bai turned back to the dormitory and urged the Queen Mother and others to sit at the table. Everyone walked slowly into the main hall of the heavy pavilion, and through the sound of the water, a spring river flower moon night jingdong played, especially the scene.

At the banquet, Emperor Chongming frequently raised his glass, wishing the Empress Dowager good health and longevity. The queen mother was so happy that she drank a large glass of red wine from the Western Regions, and her face was full of spring.

Everyone sat around, and it really added a lot of warmth than before. Thinking about it again in the past year, the scourge of the millennial religion has been cleared, the spies in the palace have been found, the Jiangyin area has been reshuffled, and the marriage of the three kingdoms has been promoted.

The five princes don't need to be wrapped in swaddling clothes now, wearing a cotton jacket and pants embroidered with red embroidery for the spring, with the longevity lock given by the queen mother that day, and holding the arms of Concubine Meng Shu, just like the golden boy on the New Year's painting.

Murong Hui was close, she gently pinched her younger brother's little hand, wanted to hug but didn't dare to hug it, and asked Meng Shufei with some curiosity: "How does Concubine Shuniang take muslin to make clothes for her fifth brother, and the silk looks more gorgeous." ”

Concubine Meng Shufei gently patted the child in the crook of her arm, and replied good-naturedly: "The second princess doesn't know, your fifth brother is still too young. After all, the muslin is soft and comfortable to wear on children. Although the silk is noble, he is afraid of hurting his skin, so he will wear it when he is older. ”

Concubine Xu Xian on the side asked for water to clean her hands, and then took the child from Concubine Meng Shu's arms, and couldn't put it down and looked at it.

Looking at the eyebrows and eyes that were somewhat similar to Murong Peng and Murong Xuan, Concubine Xu Xian smiled softly at Queen Chu: "The eyebrows and eyes of the five princes are all with Your Majesty, and you will have spirit when you look at them." ”
