Chapter 3: The Bonfire Dinner

After resting all day, Shi Jin's spirit was a little better, perhaps the winter of Tanglin was not as cold as the Northern Desert, and the New Year was approaching, and the festive red color also brought a warm atmosphere. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

That night, he set up a small reception banquet in the envoy's mansion, he came to Tanglin three years ago when the two countries were on good terms, and he had not returned home for a long time.

The people of Yifu are all from the Northern Desert, although the two countries are friendly, the Northern Desert has been passing on the richer Tanglin culture, but the culture needs a long time to run-in, although it is adapted to a lot, but now it is very happy to see the people and things in the hometown.

Shi Jin and his entourage brought a lot of cattle and sheep and soufflés, tea crisps and other foods from the Northern Desert, and everyone set up a bonfire party in the relatively spacious backyard.

Shi Jin lived in the Yuluo Courtyard, which was further north, and was now bathing and changing clothes.

"Princess, Lord Yu said that the banquet is ready, and asked the princess what else she wanted." Bo'er said through the door.

"Tell him not to rush me." Shi Jin couldn't help but smile.

Bai'er pursed her lips and smiled.

A quarter of an hour later, Shi Jin showed up with Xuegu, and the backyard was brightly lit and festive. After she sat down on the main seat, Su Shifeng led a group of people to wait for the courtiers.

"Weichen Shifeng greets Her Royal Highness the eldest princess." Su Shifeng wore the official uniform of the Northern Desert today, and the traces of erosion on his face by the wind and sand of the Northern Desert have also been diluted a lot by the warm climate of the eastern country, and it is not difficult to see that he was also handsome when he was young.

Tonight, he was dressed in a thousand-threaded double brocade, and two enamel silver hairpins were placed on the black hairpin, and he did not wear an earring jade pendant, and there was a sense of closeness in the extravagance.

"Please get up, everyone, hurry up! For the safety of the Northern Desert, you are far away from your homeland, away from your relatives, and have made great sacrifices, which have been recorded by the first emperor and the new emperor. This time, the palace also brought the emperor's grace. Shi Jin looked at the red satin brocade box in Xue Gu's hand and signaled the decree.

The crowd knelt down again to receive the order.

Xue Gu took out the Xuanse Holy Decree and read it aloud: "Carried by the sky, the emperor Zhao said." Today, the envoys of Tanglin are loyal and virtuous, and they have helped me to form a good relationship with Donglin forever, and they have made great contributions. Special reward ferret skins, pastures, and cattle and sheep. Grace was reunited with his wife and children. The lieutenant rewarded 100 head of cattle and sheep. and a reward to increase the income of the other subjects of the courtier's house by ten taels. Chin this. ”

"Thank you, Saint Shanglongen." Everyone saluted Shi Jin.

"Get up, please! Today is a family feast, everyone has fun. Shi Jin got up, picked up the scimitar that had been prepared, cut off the first piece of meat on the roast lamb, and signaled the banquet to begin.

Seeing that the whole house was jubilant, Shi Jin was mixed with joy and sorrow, and the wind and rain were coming......

"Aunt Xue, how is Yu'er?" Holding the hot warm wine glass, Shi Jin asked in a low voice.

"I've gotten used to it a lot, and I've probed it, and her throat seems to have been drugged when she was a child." Xue Gu said.

"Is there a cure?"

"Hmmm......"

Xue Gu Yuguang saw Su Shifeng walk in and stopped in time.

"Thank you, princess, for letting me reunite with my wife and children, and I am grateful." Su Shifeng toasted a glass of wine and said sincerely.

He understood that if the princess had not interceded, the emperor would not have let his wife and children come here at all, although he had no intention of betrayal, how could the emperor's heart not be suspicious?

"The emperor's new ascension to the throne is also his trust in you. Because His Majesty's decree was a little late, the ****** was still on the way, and it should have arrived a year ago. ”

"Well, the princess really wants to ......," Shi Shifeng glanced at Xue Gu who was sitting on the side.

"Don't get in the way, please speak." Shi Jin nodded, meaning that Xue Gu was her confidant.

"The prince of Tanglin has passed the New Year, but he doesn't even have a concubine, and he has been in the house all the year round, and he has been sick for a long time, and the world has passed on his ......" Su Shifeng glanced at Shi Jin, and saw that she was not unusual, so he said: "He can't be humane...... If it weren't for the blessing of the Queen Mother, the crown prince would not have been able to stay for a long time, but the Queen Mother is old, and he, the master of the East Palace, will not be able to last long! ”

"Is the princess really going to marry the crown prince? Nothing else? Su Shifeng said with a frown. To be honest, he watched Shi Jin grow up, she is indeed the best princess in the Northern Desert, even in order to stabilize the throne, the emperor should not let her suffer this crime, right?

"Lord Sui, in life, he has his own rights and interests, and he also has his responsibilities. The royal nobles, using brocade clothes to eat jade food, naturally should make some sacrifices that others don't have to make, right? I understand all this, let alone adults? Shi Jin took a sip of milk wine, "I know that you will say that to me because you regard me as your own child, but the matter has come to this point, there is no other way, you can't curse the prince who drove the year ago, right?" ”

Su Shifeng also smiled helplessly, "It's the minister who thinks too much, but I hope that the princess will leave a way out for herself!" ”

Shi Jin nodded lightly, and watched Su Shifeng get up and leave.

"Go on."

"Yu'er's throat can be healed, but it will take some time."

"Well, I'll leave it to you, be sure to heal. What about his brother? ”

"It's still in the Anhe."

"Send someone to protect them."
