Chapter 52: Keeping the New Year (1)

With Yan Xuan's adjustment, the whole family banquet began to heat up. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info When Yan Chen and Yan Xun returned to their seats, the younger princes came up to toast, and the princesses and concubines also exchanged their heads and ears, toasting each other and talking.

The main hall sings and dances, and the plans are staggered.

"Fifth brother works hard, big brother toasts you!" Yan Yu, who has always been unkind to each other, also came over with a wine glass at this time, and filled the glass of wine for Yan Yu, ": The eldest brother did it first as a respect." With that, he drank it all.

Yan Chen was not vague, picked up the wine glass and dried it.

Yan Yu now feels that he can't speak at all in front of his father, after the incident of Prime Minister Nie Cheng, he is more and more discouraged and shameless in front of his father, and his father treats him with a lot of criticism. The previous scenery and grandeur are all gone, and even the status of the mother concubine has plummeted, but Yan Chen is thriving in the camp, he is depressed, and he is even more unwilling. He poured himself drinks and added wine to Yan Chen from time to time, he just wanted to find a reason to get drunk, and the people sitting next to him were his blood brothers, and he was his fierce rival for the heir, he was in pain but helpless.

The so-called wine can relieve a thousand sorrows, but Yan Yu becomes more and more worried the more he drinks, "Fifth brother, come, I have this cup with my eldest brother, my eldest brother talks and does things more bluntly on weekdays, please forgive me for any offense!" He was too drunk, his face was flushed, and he kept pouring wine for Yan Chen.

"Brother Huang is serious, we are all brothers, how can I forgive me, the festival is fun, but don't be greedy for a cup." Due to the frequent toasts, Yan Xuan did not give up, coupled with Yan Yu's persuasion, Yan Chen has not drunk less from the beginning of the banquet to the present, and the drinks at the banquet are all agar and jade wine, even if he drinks well, he can't resist the spirits, at this time he is slightly drunk, and the heat on his cheeks is gradually rising.

Outside Changchun Palace, Aunt Qiao asked Zining to wait at the gate of the palace, ": Half of the palace people in Changchun Palace went to Qinghe Palace, and Aunt Wei probably followed, you wait outside first, I will look for Miss Ping, come when you go, you must not walk around, when something goes wrong, I can't save you." ā€

"Auntie, don't worry, I won't walk away." Zi Ning nodded and handed the basket to Aunt Qiao.

Aunt Qiao carried the basket, said hello to the palace guards and went in.

Zining stood at the gate of Changchun Palace, only a little eunuch guarded the door, because it was the New Year's Festival, the palace people all enlarged the holiday, leaving this little eunuch to watch the door, looking a little bored and a little sullen.

Zi Ning looked inside the palace gate, although the master was not in the palace, but the entire Changchun Palace was brightly lit, the glazed palace lights in the courtyard were in charge, and the red lanterns were hanging high under the eaves, a glorious and festive image.

This place is very close to the Qinghe Palace, and even the sound of singing, dancing, sheng, flute and wind music in it is clear to the ears, which is in great contrast with the quiet scene of the Changchun Palace now. The little eunuch at the door just looked forward to changing shifts quickly and going back to drink.

"The girl, like me, is also a hard worker in the Chinese New Year's Eve." The little eunuch saw that there was no one around, so he talked to Zining.

Zi Ning heard the little eunuch suddenly talking to him, and said with a wry smile: "It's a hard life to enter this palace, so I can rest for a day tomorrow, and you guys who guard the door should not rest every day, right?" ā€

"Who says it's not, this is my master's errand, and today he went to drink, leaving me alone. The aunt who just took you looked at Mianshan, will she punish you? ā€

Zining shook her head, and after listening to the little eunuch's complaints, she felt that she was lucky, ": On weekdays, your master protects you, and you naturally have to do things for him, which is common sense and rules." After a year, when you reach their age, someone will naturally call you a master and do things for you. ā€

When the little eunuch Zining heard this, he felt reasonable: "Hehe, you still think clearly, I have to ask for a wish on the fireworks tonight, bless me to gain a foothold in the palace as soon as possible, and become a master as soon as possible." ā€

"Is this a prayer spirit?"

"But it's spiritual, the fireworks are blooming in the sky, and you wish it to be given to the gods in the sky, can it still be spiritual? This is a habit handed down in our palace, fireworks will be lit in the main courtyard of the Qianqing Palace every night tonight, the fireworks are extremely high, and when you arrive at the main hall, you only need to look in the direction of the main hall, and the whole palace can be seen. ā€

"Well, then I'll have to try......"

"Try what?" Yan Chen came out of Qinghe Palace to relieve hangover, walked in the quiet South Garden, bypassing Meilin is Changchun Palace, and heard someone talking at the gate of the palace from a distance, and heard a voice that was very familiar, and walked over to find the sound.

Unexpectedly, the five princes came over, and the two of them knelt down in fright, ": Please be safe from the master!" The two of them were beating drums in their hearts, the five princes came silently, and I don't know how much the five princes listened, they just said some bad things about the errand, and they were caught by the master.

Yan Chen didn't think that his appearance would scare these two people like this, could it be that he was saying something that he couldn't tell? And why is Zining here? Or did you get drunk and read it wrong? "Get up, all of them."

Seeing that the prince didn't pursue it, it was estimated that he didn't hear anything, so the two of them breathed a sigh of relief and thanked him and stood up.

Yan Chen took a closer look, it was really Zining, I hadn't seen him for a long time, I don't know if it was because of the thick winter clothes, the little face had a bit of meat, and it was no longer thin and thin.

"What did you just say?" Xu was because of the wine, Yan Chen didn't have the usual coldness, and he was still thinking about what Zi Ning just said, there was a sense of breaking the sand pot and asking to the end, the little eunuch saw that the five princes didn't seem to be pursuing it, he breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his head and stood aside obediently, and didn't dare to say more.

"The slave is talking about making a wish on the fireworks tonight...... I didn't know that the master was here, and I collided with the master, and asked the master to punish him. ā€

Zi Ning did not leave his master every word, and looked respectful and cautious, Yan Chen frowned when he heard it, is he so terrifying? ": You don't want the master to come to the master, just call me the fifth master like them."

"Yes, Fifth Master." Zining lowered his head and looked obedient.

How did the five princes become so kind, how can they talk to the palace maid more often, the little eunuch thought strangely, I don't know what happened to this lord today, I don't know what happened to this lord, I don't know how to do it in my heart, I just want to bless this year well.

When Yan Chen saw Zining, he somehow remembered the piece of Merlin when he came up, and said to her, "You come with Ye." ā€

Zining was a little surprised, and didn't know what the fifth prince wanted, but since the master had spoken, he had to follow, so he replied cautiously and nervously, "I'm afraid that Aunt Qiao won't be able to find the slave and maid after she comes back......"

The little eunuch panicked when he heard this, and thought to himself Grandma Yo, the master told you to go, what are you waiting for, Aunt Qiao, in case the master blames him, they can't eat and walk, Aunt Qiao can't save you": Miss Zining, you can rest assured, and I will talk to her when my aunt comes back. ā€

Zi Ning couldn't, bit her lip, and could only nod obediently.

Yan Chen's eyes glanced at Zi Ning's small movements, but she was still reluctant? (To be continued.) )
