Li Chongguang taught Dong Zhuoru from the very beginning, and Dong Zhuoru also worked hard to learn martial arts. After living in the palace for a few days, Dong Zhuoru gradually became familiar with the environment of the palace, and was no longer as autistic as when he first came.

Chinese New Year's Eve, Li Chongguang took a group of people to exercise in the morning and began to direct the servants to decorate the royal mansion, the red satin slowly hung up, and the Spring Festival was also pasted, the entire royal mansion was decorated with lights, looking very festive, and there was a feeling of marrying.

Most of the servants in the palace are lonely and pitiful, and there are basically no relatives, and the palace is their second home. It was busy until noon, and the huge palace was dressed up. After lunch, he sat in the courtyard and drank tea for a while, and then saw that the time was almost up, and Li Chongguang was about to take Yan'er to worship his ancestors. Lou Xinyue was preparing the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner at home. Every year on Chinese New Year's Eve, Lou Xinyue has to cook it with the kitchen cooks.

When Li Chongguang's father died, the Dayou Dynasty had changed the world, but it was still buried in the royal tomb. But now the ancestor worship of the Qi Wangfu is no longer as fanfare as before, and every time it is Li Chongguang who takes Yan'er with him.

Li Chongguang asked Yan'er to kowtow and then went to play nearby, he hadn't come to see his old father for a long time, and he wanted to talk to his father.

"You really had a vision, and you handed over the power yourself. Look at the current Dayou Dynasty, it has never been grandeur for thousands of years! It's a pity that you can't see it. Li Chongguang sat on the ground in front of the stone gate, burning paper money while muttering, occasionally picking up wine to toast his old father.

The first king was very fond of wine, and he was very good at winemaking. But Li Chongguang doesn't like wine very much, he doesn't think it tastes good, and he doesn't think there's anything to drink. The only wine he likes is probably his mother's rice wine! It's sweet and sour, and it tastes great. He still remembers when he was a child when his father gave him a taste of wine, and he felt that it was spicy and intense, and he never touched it again.

He prefers to drink tea, especially after the age of confusion, and sometimes occasionally asks Gao Jingxing to play a few games of Othello. An idler like him has too many things to do, and there are many small things he can do. Except for the practice of martial arts that left no trace, he learned something that was not something. There is a sentence that he deeply believes and learns from the past. There is no end to learning, and there is no end to learning.

"It's been a long time since I've come to see you, and the grass in front of your mausoleum has grown tall again. Li Chongguang stood up and pulled the grass, and said as he pulled it.

"I didn't understand you when I was a child, but now that I've grown up, I suddenly feel that you weren't easy before. Maybe you can only understand many things by experiencing them! After all, what others say is only what others say, and it is not as profound as experiencing it yourself. Li Chongguang sat on the ground again and slowly added paper money. The burning paper money was red, and after burning for a while, a layer of ash was left on the surface, covering the red light emitted by the paper pile, and a gust of wind blew, and it emitted a red light.

"Now the development of the Great You Dynasty is getting better and better, but the mountains and rains are coming! I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse. ”

Li Chongguang accompanied his father until the pile of paper money was burned, and then shouted for Yan'er to leave. Many times when he encountered a knot in his heart that he could not untie, he would come to see his father with a jar of wine, but his father could no longer shelter him from the wind and rain, nor could he give him any advice. He has now taken his responsibility and there is no shirk.

He didn't expect anyone else to carry the weight for him, but he felt that it would be better to talk to his father, even though his father could no longer answer him.

He remembered that when he was a child, his father, who was the prince, would tell him every year that the fields were in a recession this year, and the rent had not been confiscated. But after a long time, he felt that his father was not lying to him, where was the harvest bad every year! The purpose was to make him spend money more modestly. Although he had doubts in his heart, he never asked, and it was like this until he grew up. Until now, the truth has been unascertained.

He smiled and shook his head, looking out at the fields outside the car, where the tomb grew farther and smaller until it was out of sight. After entering the city, there are very few pedestrians on the street, and most of them are at home to have a reunion dinner with their families and spend Chinese New Year's Eve together. They returned to the palace before dark, and many red lanterns were lit in the palace. Although the royal palace has been connected to electricity many years ago, every year on Chinese New Year's Eve, the royal palace will turn off the lights, light candles, and light lanterns.

This has become an unwritten rule in the royal palace. Such a palace looks more like Li Chongguang's childhood, and it is always easy to arouse the memories of the beautiful life in Li Chongguang's heart. This is a time when he is rarely able to remember his father, although it is Chinese New Year's Eve, but this feeling is only hidden in his heart, and he has never said it to Lou Xinyue and Yan Erming.

There was a large long table in the main hall, and Li Chongguang's family of three and Dong Zhuoru sat in the innermost. Next were the old butlers, the important servants of the palace, near the door were some ordinary servants or new servants, and opposite them were the guards of the palace. The entire royal palace is here, more than seventy people in total. If this was in the past, they would definitely not be able to eat with the master's family as subordinates, let alone a high-gate compound like the palace. It is also that the times have changed, and Li Chongguang has also changed.

This Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was more sumptuous and lively than in previous years, and these meals were made by the hostess Lou Xinyue and the chef of the royal mansion. Of course, what Lou Xinyue really did was only the smallest part of it.

"Okay, everyone must have been hungry after waiting for so long, so I won't be verbose, let's start eating now!"

Before Li Chongguang finished speaking, Yan'er, a little gluttonous cat, had already sandwiched a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs and handed it to his mouth.

This made Li Chongguang suddenly think that there was a Qing official in the previous dynasty, an official who was purified to the extreme, and an extremely conservative and stubborn official, just because his daughter ate the food given by his subordinates, he starved his daughter to death, which is really scary.

Fortunately, under the rule of the new government over the years, people's minds have been greatly liberated, and they no longer treat the so-called "innocence" of their daughter's family so extremely.

Looking at Yan'er, who was eating so happily, Li Chongguang touched her head and said, "Eat slowly, don't worry, no one will rob you." ”

"Hmm. ”

"Come, Zhuoru, eat more, don't be restrained, now you are a part of the palace, and this is your future home. Saying that, Li Chongguang also sandwiched a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs for Dong Zhuoru.

"Got it, Master. Dong Zhuoru is still a little restrained, but this kind of thing will be good for a long time.

For this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, all the maids felt very incredible at first, although the concept of equality gradually took root in the hearts of the people, but it is still very rare to be able to eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner with the host's family. The current Li Chongguang has changed too much, and every once in a while Li Chongguang will make some decisions that they didn't expect.

Being able to sit with Wang Ye's family for a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner really flattered everyone, and they added a little attachment and closeness to the royal mansion in their hearts. And Li Chongguang can also anticipate the impact of his decision on the palace.

The Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is not completely over, and there are already beautiful fireworks in the sky outside. Colorful and beautiful.

"Brother Zhuoru, let's go watch the fireworks together!" Yan Er jumped up from the chair excitedly, ran to Dong Zhuoru's side, pulled him up and ran to the yard.

"This kid doesn't eat anymore. Lou Xinyue complained, but she didn't mean to blame. It is the nature of children to have fun, learn hard when they should learn, have fun when they should play, and combine work and rest. Lou Xinyue was not so accustomed to children in the past, but under the influence of the newly published books that Li Chongguang bought, she also began to slowly change her thinking, and slowly recognized Li Chongguang's new education method.

After the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Li Chongguang took out the fireworks and ran over to play with the children and the maids. Even if he grows up and then slowly grows old, he still maintains his precious childlike innocence. Sometimes many people are actually still childlike, but when they grow up, they no longer show their side easily. It may be that you are worried about your adult face, you may care about your dignity as an adult, or you may be worn away by life and your passion for life.

Many people no longer feel that there are years of tranquility, but just live in a hurry and toiling every day to survive. Sometimes only by working hard can you feel that you are alive, really alive. Especially people who live in the city, although times have changed, life is better, and they may feel happy. But the busy life every day will make people paralyzed after a long time.

But life is still very good, it depends on how you are willing to live, no matter what path you choose in the end, as long as you like it, as long as you feel meaningful, as long as you feel that you should do it, then, do it. Even if you fail, it's a big deal to come back, whether you can start again or not, at least you have worked hard. Only after hard work, when one day I get old, when I look back, I don't feel any regrets.

This night, Li Chongguang thought a lot, and then accompanied the children to keep the New Year, but after the children were tired from playing, they fell asleep soon after. Li Chongguang couldn't sleep, so he ran to the roof alone and looked at the moon that was half covered by dark clouds. He's a kid again tonight, at an age when he's getting old.

He wanted to chase his dream for years, but not just because of his dream. He is responsible for this family and the entire Qi Palace, and he has to act. He had secretly arranged the affairs of the Qi Palace.

"Who?" Li Chongguang, who was meditating, suddenly stood up from the roof of the house in shock, his eyes fixed on the dark place in front of him.
