On Chinese New Year's Eve, red lanterns reflect the snow, and hundreds of low tables are laid out in front of the vast halls of the palace. The concubines sat around the emperor, hundreds of important ministers of the court sat in order according to their ranks, the palace maids and eunuchs shuttled between the dishes and wine cups, and there were constantly ladies performing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting in the center of the venue, and the scene was harmonious.

"The second emperor brother has found a beautiful woman, I haven't had time to congratulate you yet." The crown prince was dressed in bright yellow court clothes, walked towards Long Yuze with a wine glass, and said with a faint smile, "I'm really curious which little jasper took the heart of the second emperor's younger brother, and the eldest brother really wants to take a look." ”

Long Yuze toasted back a glass of wine, the wine emitted a blurry light on his thin lips, and many women around him were stunned, but he just glanced at the prince lightly and said: "Brother Huang, she is just an ordinary woman, not as graceful and luxurious as the imperial sister-in-law, the emperor hopes that she will be satisfied if she can understand the general situation in the future." ”

"Second prince, we have been good brothers for so many years, and it is a pity that I didn't see the future princess when I went to the palace that day!" Qin Yiyan's voice came from far and near, a pair of eyes stared at Long Yuze tightly, not letting go of any expression on his face, and behind him, followed by Qin Keke with a sad face.

Long Yuze squinted at the singing and dancing in the hall, took a step back quietly, and said: "After the beginning of spring, it will be my big wedding day, won't you see her when you come to have a glass of wine?" It's not that I won't let you see it, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed......"

"Really?" Qin Keke's sharp voice sounded, "The second prince is really a blessing, marrying the main concubine and the side concubine at the same time, the side concubine is the concubine of Chen Guogong, but the main concubine is the eldest daughter of the Lin Mansion, it is said that the main concubine is just a commoner, and she can be the main concubine of the second prince, it really makes me curious!" ”

Qin Keke was indeed unwilling, if Chen Huiniang was the mistress of the Qing Palace, she would still be able to endure it. After all, Chen Huiniang is a famous talented woman in the capital, and everyone knows that she loves the second prince wholeheartedly, and if she is not married, a talented, good-looking and loyal woman is a good match for the second prince. However, what qualifications does the civilian woman who inexplicably became the eldest daughter of the Lin Mansion have?

The crown prince smiled: "Second Emperor Brother, nine out of ten women in the capital are in love with you, who is your concubine, everyone is staring and waiting to see." Listening carefully, there was a hint of mockery in the prince's words. He and Long Yuze have been princes on the cusp of the storm since childhood, the son of the former queen, but because he is not the eldest son, although he is the son of the concubine, but fortunately, the queen mother later became the queen, so he naturally became His Royal Highness the Prince.

But the unwillingness and ambition of the second emperor's brother, how can the prince not know, but what can he do? The second emperor brother did not become the crown prince, so his father poured more love into him, so that the second emperor brother sometimes acted lawlessly. Just like now, he actually wants to marry a commoner woman to be the concubine of the palace, and what is even more ridiculous is that the father and the queen mother actually agreed.

The family of a woman who can be a princess must be strong enough to support the prince to gain a foothold in the court or compete for the throne. But the second emperor's brother, who has always coveted the throne, came by surprise and volunteered to marry a good-for-nothing folk girl as a concubine. If it weren't for the queen mother marrying Chen Huiniang into the Qing Palace, the second emperor brother really couldn't compare to him, his concubine was the only daughter of the prime minister of the dynasty, and it was also a strong guarantee for his throne, so he was not afraid.

However, everything was too weird, and he had to guard against it.

The identity of the woman is like a fog, even the queen mother can't find out, only when he really sees the woman, he can completely press his heart.

For Lin Ling, Long Yuze didn't have much feeling, the reason why he wanted to marry her was nothing more than because she was a goddess. In the past three years, he has approached the national teacher step by step, and finally got the news he wanted, it turned out that the little girl he saw in the Qin Mansion three years ago was the goddess of God. went to Quanzhou, brought her back, and persuaded her father to marry her as a concubine, everything went smoothly and was a little weird.

The national teacher said, "Whoever gets the goddess will win the world."

The so-called "de" is to marry her, and when the two become one, the world will be in the bag.

The time, the place, the people, he has the help of the goddess, and half of the people in the court absolutely support him, except for his father's insistence on letting the royal brother be the prince, other conditions are in his favor. For this throne, he is bound to win!

"Second prince, that woman is the person on the tip of your heart, and you married Chen Huiniang at the same time, will she be annoyed?" Looking at Long Yuze's deep appearance, Qin Keke couldn't help but say, there was a fire in her heart, which kept burning, but she couldn't vent it. In any case, she must meet that woman, she is not reconciled!

While a group of people were talking, Long Yuze's personal secret guard Ghost suddenly walked over silently and whispered in Long Yuze's ear.

"What? A bunch of rubbish! Long Yuze's face changed suddenly, he crushed the wine glass in his hand, smashed the fragments on the ground, and then brushed his sleeves away.

"Second Emperor Brother, the banquet has just begun, don't you say goodbye to your father and mother......" The prince hurriedly shouted, and also faintly clenched the wine glass in his hand, snorted coldly in his heart, and turned around and walked towards the banquet center.

Qin Keke stared at Long Yuze's departing back, his eyes were covered with another layer of moisture, and he lowered his head and said, "Brother, the second prince is really going to marry someone else...... I'm so sad......"

Qin Yiyan sighed lowly, took his only sister into his arms, and patted her on the shoulder, which could be regarded as a wordless comfort.

Qin Yiyan was really very skeptical that the woman who was about to become the second princess was Lin Ling. If so, why did the second prince marry her, and what secrets did he not know. If not, then why is the second prince always secretive and hangs everyone's curiosity.

The Chinese New Year's Eve in the Hou Mansion is also particularly lively, although Hou Ye and Miss were invited into the palace to celebrate the arrival of the New Year with everyone, but there is still a backbone in the Hou Mansion, that is, Ma Xiaoge, who has lived in the Hou Mansion for more than three years. The little marquis is busy with political affairs and has no time to manage many matters in the inner house, the young lady is playful by nature, as long as she gets the account books or something, she will doze off, and the old lady has already returned to the Jingxin Hall, let alone take care of the house.

At this juncture, Ma Xiaoge took over this tricky stall, although he was often harassed by his subordinates in the early days, and even some old people who had been in the Hou Mansion for decades were not convinced, this Miss Ma was neither the rightful master of the Hou Mansion, nor the future lady in charge, why let her be in charge? However, no matter what the people were thinking, in the past three years, Ma Xiaoge has persevered, and the backyard of the Hou Mansion has also been well maintained by her.

At the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, the old lady was going to attend, and it was these two people who could be regarded as the masters.

"It's all gone, presumably Yiyan will have to return home for some time." The old lady sighed, helped Ma Xiaoge beside her to stand up, and slowly walked towards the Jingxin Hall. The old lady is only in her forties, and she is several years old in a plain Buddhist robe, with one hand on Ma Xiaoge's hand and the other hand holding the Buddha beads.

Ma Xiaoge carefully supported the old lady and said with a smile: "Every year, the old lady looks forward to spending Chinese New Year's Eve with Hou Ye and Miss, but the Daewoo Dynasty has a rule that courtiers who are not married must enter the palace for the festival. The old lady might as well think about how to find a hostess for the Hou Mansion. ”
