On the first day of the new year, Chu Xue was pleasantly surprised to find that God responded to the scene last night, and when everyone was asleep, he actually laid a thick layer of white velvet blanket for the capital. She came to the gate of the palace, and as far as she could see, the flowers and trees in the courtyard were covered with snow, and the glazed tiles of the palace wall in the distance were also covered in silver makeup, which was beautiful.

Ruyue was cooking porridge for her in the kitchen, and when she saw her standing at the door watching the scene, the intimate Qi Jing hurriedly came over with a thick cloak, and said while draped it for her: "The master is now double, and he should pay more attention to it, if the prince in the womb is frozen, our entire Yufu Palace can't afford to pay for it!" ”

Chu Xue smiled, stroked her bulging belly, and said, "Yes, he is the most expensive now." ”

After walking a few steps into the house, she remembered something and instructed Qijing, "Call Fugui, on the first day of the new year this year, the palace will seal you red, and we will also ask for good luck." ”

"Yes." Qi Jing responded with a smile and hurried to find Fugui, the head of Yufu Palace.

Because there are many people in the palace, Chu Xue only rewarded a few in person, and the others were handed over to the rich and noble, of course, the one who gave the rich and noble is also the heaviest one.

Fugui smiled happily, and was about to retreat, but was called by Chu Xue again, Chu Xue took a not light red envelope specially handed over by Yanling, and also handed it to Fugui, saying: "This is for your master Mr. Qiu, the snow is slippery outside, and the palace is not suitable to go out, so please run it yourself!" ”

Fugui saw that there was still a share of the master, he was surprised and delighted, and was busy kowtowing for the master to thank him, but Chu Xue smiled and said: "Your master is the life-saving benefactor of this palace, this is what he deserves, no need to be polite, go quickly." ”

"Yes!" Fugui hurried out of the temple gate.

After staying in her palace and having breakfast, she went to Fengyi Palace to greet the emperor and queen for the New Year, and the family got together, everyone got Song Chen's red seal, but what was handed to Chu Xue was a double copy, Chu Xue looked at him suspiciously, but saw him smile and said: "There are adults and children, and naturally this one is indispensable," Yu Yu stroked her stomach.

She smiled and thanked the child.

~~

At the beginning of the new year, on the fifth day of the new year, the palace was busy again, the king returned to the previous dynasty to be diligent in government, and the harem continued to live his own life.

Early in the morning, Fugui brought two female officials over and saluted Chu Xue: "Niangniang, these two are the aunts of Shangyi Supervisor, and they will cut dresses for you in advance for the dinner in the Shangyuan Night Palace." ”

Hearing this, Chu Xue remembered this matter, the Shangyuan Festival is the first festival of the New Year, and the royal family wants to feast the ministers in the palace and celebrate it all over the world. This year, they entered the palace, and they naturally had to appear at the palace banquet on the night of the fifteenth, although when they first entered the palace, everyone made new dresses and dresses, but now she has a big belly and has been promoted to the imperial concubine, and the previous money can naturally no longer be used, and it really needs to be re-cut.

The female officials saluted her, and they got busy for her, and after a while, the two of them retired again.

When the hall was clean, Chu Xue sighed, Shangyuan Night Palace Banquet, there must be a lot of people to meet.

~~

The fifteenth day of the first month.

Halfway through the unitary time, the Qingde Hall dedicated to the banquet in the palace ushered in the ministers.

Tonight is the first palace banquet after the new emperor ascended the throne, and it coincides with the Shangyuan Festival, so there are a large number of people attending the banquet, and the officials above the fourth grade in the court are in the list, affected by the abolition of the Taigong change before last year, some of the officials who were implicated fell from power, and the position was vacant, and naturally there were a group of new officials to fill the position, and Qin Yuan was one of them.

Qin Yuan was promoted to the position of commander of the Beijing Health Department by the imperial court because of his meritorious service in the counterinsurgency, and was promoted to the position of commander of the Beijing Health Department by the imperial court.

After everyone sat down one by one, Yonghong Emperor Song Chen stepped into the Qingde Hall with a queen and two concubines, and more than 100 officials knelt down and saluted, shouting long live.

The king signaled to be flat, and everyone in the palace sat down one after another, the emperor and queen were in the main seat, and the two concubines Rong Yi sat on both sides.

This is the second time that Chu Xue has stepped into the Qingde Palace, and now she is much calmer than last time. As early as just now, when she stepped in with Song Chen and the people at the bottom of the stairs knelt down, she looked down and found the people she was looking for.

Father Chu Lin, in the forefront of the ministers, not far from him, not seen for a few months, his father has not changed much, his expression is not bad, she nodded slightly to her father after she sat down, relieved; Uncle Qin Mu, as a military general, was diagonally opposite his father, looking still strong, and the eyes of the two made contact for a moment, and she sent a smiling look.

As for Uncle Qin Mu's body, the man in gorgeous clothes with a glamorous aura all over his body, she recognized it after just one glance.

There is no other person in the world who makes her so memorable.

Enemy, Xu Jilin.

She gritted her teeth in her heart and silently recited the man's name, then closed her gaze, lowered her eyes, and was only a noble imperial concubine.

But the person she hated so much turned her gaze over as if unintentionally, and the moment she stepped into the hall and everyone knelt down, Xu Jilin saw her appearance clearly again, but that glance made him lose his mind for a moment.

Many years ago, the woman who died in front of him was also of the same shape, with a nine-point similar appearance. He didn't actually want to hurt her, he promised to take her away, and he could even tolerate her giving birth to other people's children, but he didn't expect that she hated him so much, and would rather die with her unborn child than give herself a chance to love.

He has been on the battlefield for half his life, killing countless people, but he has never tried this kind of anger, unwilling but powerless. This kind of taste, but no matter how high the official position, no amount of wealth and glory can make up for it.

But when his thoughts turned back, he looked at this extremely similar woman many years later, but he couldn't regain his obsession in his heart, because he knew that the woman in front of him was very likely to destroy his family.

Ping Nanhou drank a glass of wine and thought about it again. The nurse who was found in Jinzhou last time, although he could not directly deny Chu Xue's identity, but also made him see the suspicions, although the appearance is unsophisticated, and the temperament seems to be the same, but the body is ......

She used to be in poor health, but now she has improved greatly, and it is said that this change came after she was born with smallpox and met a miracle doctor......

That's right, Divine Doctor!

If you can't get words out of the mouth of the Chu family, it doesn't mean that others can't.

Ping Nanhou had another idea in his heart.

Singing and dancing, drum music, the first banquet of the New Year, whether it is the exquisite dishes on the table or the expressions on everyone's faces, are full of joy. The emperor spoke to several important ministers in the vicinity, and people in the distance began to toast each other in a small area.

"Come, Nian Xiu, today's festival, let's have a toast too!"

The one who was toasting towards Qin Yuan was his current boss, Gu Kun, the commander of the Jing Wei Division.

Qin Yuan picked up his wine glass and drank three glasses with this boss who was also a brother and friend.

The spicy taste entered the throat, and the sorrow accumulated in the bottom of my heart seemed to be soothed a little, is this the taste of drinking to drown my sorrows? The young man smiled and poured himself a rare drink.

Although he saw her again, he was too far away from her. She sat on the stone steps of the white marble dragon wall, beside the emperor, she was the princess of the high, and he occasionally raised his eyes to see the dazzling colors of her gorgeous brocade robe and the light reflected in the brilliant light of her head of pearls.

Is she happy like that?

He didn't know that for nearly ten years, he hadn't been able to say a word to her again, and the closest distance between them since the reunion was only the moment when she stepped forward to thank him in Chu Mansion, and then, she hid behind the then King Heng, the current emperor.

All he knew was the fire in the Sheng'an Temple last year, she almost died, and he only heard that the Holy Grace was prosperous and wanted to crown her concubine, but was stopped.

Another glass of wine went into his throat, Qin glanced at the emperor with a high dragon crown, and smiled bitterly in his heart, can he keep the world peaceful, maybe Wenwen's life will be smooth?

Several familiar colleagues beside him rarely had such a self-conscious appearance, and when they saw this scene, they all stepped forward to care for him.

"Lord Qin has something on his mind today? How can you drink it so much? ”

"Yes, Brother Qin, why is this a bit of a borrowing wine to drown his sorrows?"

"Could it be that you have a crush on a girl who is sick with lovesickness?"

Qin Yuan didn't pay attention to these playful concerns, nor did he make excuses to explain, he just picked up his wine glass and toasted with his colleagues one by one.

However, the girl in his heart really couldn't sit still at this time.

This kind of dinner usually lasts for two hours, if it is a man who drinks, it is still some fun to enjoy the music and dance, but she can't drink, and she is pregnant, and after a long time, it is actually a little uncomfortable.

Song Chen caught a glimpse of a slightly uncomfortable look on her face, and when she went to ask her, she told her the truth and asked if she could step back first.

Liangxi went to reply, and saw Song Chen nodding at her, and the eyes of the emperor, who was still majestic, rose with tenderness.

She got up with a light smile, saluted lightly, and was accompanied by the maidservants, and withdrew from the Qingde Palace.

It was almost half of the hour, and there was still about half an hour before the end of the dinner, Song Chen was still going to Fengyi Palace tonight, and as soon as she returned to her palace, she went to bathe early and lay down on the bed.

Maybe she had sat for too long, or maybe because she had seen the man who had made her gnash her teeth again, she just felt especially tired tonight, and fell asleep after a while.

But Qingmeng was only halfway done, and she was awakened by a warm kiss, she opened her eyes, and the outline of Song Chen in her sight gradually became clear.

"Awake? Why did you go to bed so early, uncomfortable? ”

He had already changed his robe, and the dignified emperor instantly turned back into a man who cared for her gently.

She smiled and shook her head and asked him, "What time is it?" Is the dinner party over? Why did the emperor come over? ”

Seeing that her face was normal, because there was still a faint flush on her face when she just woke up, he relieved himself and replied: "When I first arrived, the dinner party had ended for a while. ”

After a pause, he asked again, "Since you are not uncomfortable, have you forgotten something?" ”

When he asked her like this, she really came to her senses, but after trying hard for a while, she still couldn't remember what she had forgotten, so she shook her head truthfully, "The concubine doesn't remember anything else?" ”

But I saw him raise his eyebrows.

She bit her lip and said coquettishly: "Don't sell the emperor, the concubine is pregnant, and her brain is really a little bad, so you can directly sue the concubine." ”

He sighed, pinched her face, and said, "Okay, for the sake of the child, I will spare you this time, have you rested enough?" If you have enough rest, go out for a walk with me. ”

Wake her up just to go for a walk?

She was taken aback, but before she could say anything more, he had already brought her clothes, and dressed them for her himself, and when she saw that he had come to serve her, she had to cooperate, and wanted to see what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.

When the clothes were dressed, she still wanted to put her hair in a bun, but he looked at her for a while and said, "This looks good, don't bother, don't miss the time." ”

She had no choice but to give up, and he helped her out of her palace gate and sat on the royal chariot that she had been waiting for.
