After entering the wax moon, the family began to get busy again, and the idle and bored Gu Ci held Bajie, who was as chubby as her, and accompanied the kind old fairy Xiao Lu to sit in a rocking chair in the Bamboo Heart Pavilion and slowly shake it. One drinks juice, the other tea.

Gu Ci, who has lowered his expectations for the New Year a lot, recently knew that he could only bring two maids and one grandmother into the palace, and he began to open his mind more about the 'palace banquet', and now he is just catching the master and knocking his teeth.

"Master, I'm so young and so cute, what if I go out and be snatched away?"

"You are a dead man."

Ah Yue lifted his eyelids and glanced at Gu Yu.

"Two fists are hard to beat four hands, Ah Yue can't be busy, and I can't watch from the side."

"Not dead yet? said that your body is not suitable for martial arts. ”

Gu Ci's desire to be a chivalrous woman was punctured by Xiao Lu early on, her hands and feet are soft and she is really not suitable for martial arts, and if she wants to strengthen her body, she can only rely on dancing (yoga).

"There's always something to defend yourself in, in case I'm left alone."

"Get you a firework bomb to signal?" Xiao Lu has also gotten used to her open-minded thinking in recent years, and sometimes she is quite inspiring, and she is not impatient at all.

"How to light it if you don't have a fire on your body!"

"A summons whistle in the military?"

This can be had. Gu Ci thought for a moment and continued to diverge, "What if I was tied up?" ”

"If you get kidnapped, your father can go home and eat his own."

“…… What if! ”

People just want a beautiful little sword master, why don't you pretend to be incomprehensible like this!

"Make some incense for you, so that Bajie can find it when he smells it."

“…… Speaking of incense, Master, how do you break the drug? ”

"Smear some herb oil on your nose, and you won't faint after eating a bucket."

"What about accidental poisoning?"

“…… Haven't you taught it before......"

"Mung bean licorice soup is not good to boil, you can make some easy ......"

"Let Gan Mei make it for you!"

"Okay! Besides, I'm really tied up, so you're going to have to give me something to cut the rope......"

Xiao Lu smiled, "It's good that you don't have to cut off your fingers." ”

"I've started to learn to cook, how can I be so clumsy!"

"Okay, before entering the palace, I must ask Aqing to get you a handsome."

Gu Ci let go of the master happily, and asked the maids to prepare a big purse for her to make an ancient version of the first aid bag, and fell asleep peacefully with Bajie's longing for the famous sword.

***********************

Although the palace banquet on the first day of the new year started at five o'clock, it was less than two o'clock, and Gu Ci's family was in the palace.

The feast hall is located in the front hall of Chongxi Palace, very close to Xihua Gate, the size of this palace is no less than the Taihe Hall of the Sacrifice to the Heavens, it is also the place of sacrifice, the main hall is dimly lit, but it is bigger than the Qianqing Palace of 'Golden Palace'. Yuyi told Gu Ci that in the previous dynasty, every room in the dormitory was full of portraits of emperors and princes of the past dynasties and gods, and now most of them are closed. The courtyard between the front hall and the main hall is full of flowers and trees, and there are strange rocks in a forest, imitating the effect of 'one step and one world' made by the Jiangnan garden, and it is said that the scene seen at every turn is a scene in the Buddhist scriptures. The left and right double-storey corridors, carved as windows, lead to the stargazing tower in the east, the highest building in the palace, and the north can go to the remote thinking platform, which is a large flower hall built in the imperial garden, a place for summer banquets. Now there are more than a dozen red lanterns hanging under the eaves, swaying in the wind and snow.

The emperor's throne and the golden dragon banquet table are located in the middle of the north of the banquet hall, and the east and west are lined up to set up the main banquet table. At the first-class banquet table, the virtuous concubine and the concubine are on the left, and the good concubine and the concubine are on the right. The second-class banquet table is the family of the seven princes and princesses and the princes and princesses who are not married, Yuan Yi is in the first place on the left, King Guangsi, King Xichuan and the eighth prince are under him, King Zhongshan, King Guangen and the nine princes, and the unmarried seven princesses and eight princesses are in the right column. The third-class table is the secretary of state, the left column is the secretary of state above the earl, and the right column is the civil and military officials above the second rank according to the rank. The Protector Mansion is naturally the left chief at the third-class table, the main seats are Yuyi and Gu Yao, carrying Gu Ci, and the second behind them are the four elder brothers.

Gu Ci deliberately looked at the people in the palace, it seemed that except for the young prince and princess, there were not many children who could come, and her fluffy little bean was very eye-catching......

She couldn't see the people in the opposite row of seats clearly, and there was a man-high curtain on the left side of her seat, but she could hear Yuan Yi's voice not far away, and the one on the right should be Wei Guogong and his wife. Wei Guogong Chi Rui is a burly man who looks to be in his forties, with a white beard, even if he is wearing a heavy court uniform, he also gives people a feeling of fighting with swords and chivalry.

He went first alone, as soon as he came in, after saluting each other, he looked at Gu Ci's eyes and gave her a piece of jade carved bat pattern jade jue with excellent water head, and when he saw her salute, he wanted to hug but didn't dare to hug her.

Duchess Wei Guo arrived later, she looked much younger, less than thirty, petite and exquisite, with a melon seed face and distant mountain eyebrows, and a weak willow Fufeng smiled lightly, and gave a white jade bracelet and sat on the side to pour herself a drink.

Chi Rui called Gu Yi over to sit together, and the two talked very hotly.

She accidentally heard Chi Rui take a copy of Yan Zhenqing's true handiwork and coax Seventh Brother to take her over to play......

Then the little brother moved his eyebrows and took the initiative to pack her and put her on Chi Rui's lap......

Gu Ci actually admired Chi Rui very much, she saw that Yuyi and Gu Yao were not worried at all, so she cooperated with Gu Yi to sell a handful of cute, which made Chi Rui smile and gave her a purse of gold bills.

"Shenming, whose little girl did you coax here again?" 'Shenming' is Chi Rui's word.

A middle-aged man next to him quipped. His clothes are very similar to Gu Yao and Chi Rui, but his style is polite and gentle, he strokes a handful of beautiful hair, and looks at Gu Ci with a smile.

"This is Shunqing's little baby."

Gu Yao and Yuyi also came over with a few children to greet him. This is the combination of the state and the public, and the words are thought and done. His wife was sick and did not come, his two sons and grandchildren were not in Beijing, and only a few granddaughters remained at home.

Gu Ci obediently called him 'Uncle Ren', holding the meeting gift, and quietly stood beside Gu Yi to watch the excitement of what the elders said.

Chi Rui really likes her, and she keeps praising her, which makes her feel a lot of pressure, "Uncle Chi, you also praise the seventh brother and the little brother, don't think differently." ”

Now even Dingguo Gong laughed. said to Yuyi, "I have few people, why don't you put Ah Luan on my seat first?" ”

Gu Yao is very complacent, no one in Beijing knows that Dingguo Gong treats his grandchildren equally, and he doesn't spoil girls at all, it is rare to see him love Gu Ci so much, so naturally he did not refuse. Chi Rui followed Gu Ci and sat down at Ren He's table.

waited until the hall was filled one after another, and Gu Ci returned to Yuyi's side.

At half past three, the music of Zhonghe Shao was played under the two corridors, and the throne of Sejong's palace was ascended, and everyone bowed. On the music, the four concubines took their seats and the feast began.

Four cold and eight hot, ten kinds of dim sum, two soups, two soups and two fruit boxes. During the period, the ceremony was very grand, solemn, and the etiquette was quite cumbersome.

The banquet was removed, the emperor gave tea, the master of ceremonies gave tea, everyone got up and saluted again, returned to the throne to drink all the tea, played and danced, and waited for the emperor and the concubine to return to the palace, which was considered the end of the banquet.

Gu Ci felt that he was always worried about whether he was going to get up and salute this night, and he was very unhappy with eating. When I was walking out with the adults who said goodbye to each other, I saw that Mu Wanqing, the chief manager next to the emperor, was waiting outside the door with a little eunuch, and when he saw their family, he said, The Queen Mother, please go to Cining Palace.

The group rushed to Cining Palace in the snow, and the Queen Mother did not let go of her hand when she saw Gu Ci.

Originally, she was going to enter the palace again tomorrow for a family banquet, but Yuyi saw that the Queen Mother refused to let go, so she had no choice but to leave her daughter behind.

Gu Ci waved a handkerchief to send away his mother and father and brother, and sat beside the Queen Mother to peel peanuts. Mother Hu and Gan Tang went to the West Side Hall to clean up her house.

The Queen Mother stroked her back and said to the female official Yao beside her, "Ah Luan is more beautiful than Ah Tong when she grows up, you see this little eyebrow and eyes are exquisite." ”

"The county lord will definitely be a beautiful woman in the future, and he may let many Xiaolangjun fight for his head."

"Then I have to wait to see which kid has the ability to marry my heart!"

"What boy?" The emperor walked in with Yuan Yi and heard the end of the sentence.

"Why are you here again on such a snowy day?"

"Grandmother, this is because of Aluan, you won't want to see me and my father." Yuan Yi pretended to be complaining.

The Queen Mother laughed happily, "That's it, with Ah Luan, what else do you want to do?" ”

"I'm waiting to see you, I haven't seen the emperor's uncle for a long time, I can't see it at all when I was so far away just now!"

Seeing Gu Ci giving face like this, the emperor was very happy, and reached out to hug her, but she was taken behind her by the queen mother, "Don't rob Aluan with me!" Otherwise, don't set foot in Cining Palace in the future! ”

Enjoying the feeling of making the emperor and the queen mother jealous, Gu Ci was secretly refreshed, and hurriedly pushed the peeled plate of peanuts to the emperor, and then stood up on the couch to pinch the queen mother's shoulders.

"What did the queen mother say just now that she was so happy?" The emperor nibbled on Gu Ci's filial piety peanuts, and his memory was still so good.

"Niangniang will start to talk about how to embarrass the county lord's county horse in the future." Lady Yao replied with a smile, she has been with the Queen Mother in the palace all her life, and she has a little face in front of the emperor and can make a joke.

"Grandmother, this little bean is not as tall as the table."

"The mourning family is so old, and I don't know if I can see Ah Luan get married." The Queen Mother said a little sadly.

Gu Ci couldn't see the old man feel so much, and hurriedly said: "Grandmother has a long life, and she can still see my little baby." ”

Everyone was stunned by her words, and Yuan Yi asked, "Ah Luan, how do you know about the baby?" ”

There is a priest father, and this kind of question is completely stressful to answer, "What Master said, my mother is my grandmother's baby, I am my mother's baby, and I will have a baby in the future." ”

"Yu Ze teaches well!" The Queen Mother smiled, "Grandmother is waiting to see a baby as cute as Ah Luan!" ”

"Ah Luan will definitely work hard to grow up!"

The two men looked at the Queen Mother who was smiling comfortably and the ignorant and serious Xiao Douding, both speechless.

***********************

Gu Ci, who had enough of the favorability of the queen mother and the emperor, was packed by Yuan Yi and went to his bedroom in the east side hall, and the new west side hall that Hu mother and Gan Tang cleaned up was completely useless. The decathlon Ming Fang skillfully washed her, stuffed her into a warm quilt, and took Ah Yue out of the inner room.

Seeing that she was about to fall asleep in seconds, Yuan Yi immediately pinched her nose and threatened, "Don't sleep first." Or beat your ass. ”

After a while, Yuan Yi himself also lay in, holding a complaining Gu Ci and smiling, "How warm it is on my side, besides, I can't live here after the New Year, if you stay overnight, just sleep here." ”

"Why?"

"The emperor plans to officially register me as the crown prince after the holiday."

"Oh!" Gu Ci suddenly felt that the dust had settled, and whispered to him, "Congratulations." ”

"Verbal expressions are insincere."

...... "Prince, you've learned badly!" These words used to be my lines. "You can't live in my house when you move to the East Palace, right?"

"Yes. I'm afraid I won't have a chance to sleep with you like this next year, what if I can't sleep well. Alas......"

Gu Cixin said, next year, I am afraid that you will hold a big beauty with a convex and backward curve, how can you have time to think about my small stove.

"My innocence is preserved, I am very relieved!"

provoked Yuan Yi to bite her a few bites.

"There will be a lot of people tomorrow, don't run around, I'll let Mingxiu follow you."

"Okay." Gu Ci thought about it, but still asked, "Will something happen?" ”

Yuan Yi raised his lips and smiled, "Actually, this will suddenly be smart......"

“…… You're going to be fine, right? "Who made her brain a little big during this time, and she immediately grasped the point.

"Of course."

She said uneasily, "I brought a lot of medicine in my purse......

"It's going to be fine." He said it to the point. "Send Mingxiu to say where you want to go, don't be alone, you know?!"

"I'll be very good."

Obviously, he had already prepared, and Gu Ci chatted with him with confidence.

"Tomorrow or dinner at Chongxi Palace?"

"Hmm. How do you ask this? ”

"My mother said that there was a portrait of Taizong in it."

"Want to see it? Wait until it's warmer. In the winter, there was no one in the temple, and it was very cold. ”

Gu Ci asked a question that particularly bothered her, "Why do you want to hold a banquet in the place where your ancestors are worshipped?" "Ordinary people, who will play music, drink and eat outside the ancestral hall!

“…… Ahem, Taizong will say, there is a big place, and it is idle and wasted. Besides, it is also a good thing for the ancestors to watch the prosperity of the country, and it is also a good thing to save the people and money from worshipping again. ”

Gu Ci really wanted to praise Taizong sincerely, it was too real.

"Then why do you still have a rockery garden?" There's a strong sense of disobedience, okay?

"It is also the design of Taizong, in fact, it can be seen on the stargazing tower that it is the word 'Buddha'."

"Really?!"

"There are a lot of notes left by Taizong during the design in the study, you can take them and read them if you like."

"Okay!"

"Hmm, do you want to take you up to the tower to see it on the Yuan Festival?"

“…… What conditions, say it! ”

Yuan Yi ravaged her all the time, pinching and kissing, making Gu Ci laugh out of breath before stopping.

"Ascend to the disciple! Can I sleep......"

“…… Pig! ”

Excuse: ZZZzzz......
