As soon as it was dark, there was a crackling explosion in the night sky.

Brilliant fireworks illuminate the main square outside Fengtianmen as bright as day.

Many ordinary people and civil and military officials have gone out of their homes to watch the fireworks.

Adults and children alike had a smile of surprise on their faces, something they hadn't seen in years.

Indeed, in the past, Emperor Chongzhen thought about silver with a sad face all day long, and the rats in the treasury could starve to death.

Where does he have the money to set off fireworks, the fireworks that bloomed this night are worth hundreds of taels of silver.

Zhu Youzhen stood outside the hall, followed by three princesses and five concubines, and all the beauties were excited.

"Father, what does it mean to set off fireworks in the New Year? It's the first time we've seen such beautiful fireworks when we've grown so big! ”

Wei Jiao hugged her father's arm, her head snuggled against Zhu Youzhen's shoulder, and her face was happy.

Zhu Youzhen reached out and pinched Wei Jiao's little nose and smiled:

"This ...... It means that the Ming Dynasty is prosperous and prosperous, and the country is peaceful and peaceful. ”

"Well, that's right, Erchen also believes that under the wise leadership of his father, Daming will definitely bloom as gorgeous as today's fireworks, and it should be called Chongzhen Shengshi at that time!"

"Haha...... For the prosperous age of Chongzhen, my father also wants to ......"

The night passed quickly, and the next day Zhu Youzhen couldn't sleep anymore.

Early this morning, all the civil and military officials will pay him New Year's greetings in the Fengtianmen Emperor's Palace.

Looking back at the five golden flowers that were still sleeping beside him, Zhu Youzhen's mouth slightly curled up.

"Hahaha, my body is really good, and the group battle is still invincible......"

In the early dynasty, hundreds of civil and military officials congratulated the emperor on the New Year, and there were many elaboracies and ceremonies, which took two hours to end.

In the court, Zhu Youzhen did not hesitate to give ten taels of silver red envelopes to each of the hundred officials.

The boss who grinned at Baiguanle was still rich in the emperor, I hope it will be like this every year, and I hope that Daming will be prosperous.

After returning to the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Youzhen found that Caidie Qiuju's smile was even brighter today.

Zhu Youzhen sat down by the brazier and asked:

"Caidie Qiuju, you are very happy today, did you have a sweet dream last night?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the slave maid didn't have a sweet dream last night, just now the princess gave the slave a red envelope, a lot of silver! Hee-hee......"

"Oh, I've ignored this, you go and call Wang Chengen over."

"Obey"

The two little girls didn't know what the emperor meant, so they hurriedly went to find Lao Wang.

Soon Lao Wang came to see Zhu Youzhen:

"Slaves and maids see Your Majesty."

"No courtesy, flat body, Lao Wang, give red envelopes to the palace people for me, it's the New Year, everyone is twenty taels each, let everyone be happy and festive!"

"Obey"

Lao Wang just wanted to leave after receiving the decree, but suddenly stopped again, and asked a little mysteriously:

"Your Majesty, are you sure it's twenty taels of silver per person?"

Zhu Youzhen was a little stunned when asked by Lao Wang, could it be that the emperor used to give out more red envelopes and silver? Probably not!

"Of course, how? Isn't it too little, then add ......"

Hearing that the emperor wanted to add, Lao Wang hurriedly waved his hand and said:

"A lot, a lot, it's too much, never more than a tael of silver, and the slave and maid retired."

Probably afraid that the emperor would change his mind, Lao Wang bowed down and withdrew from the Qianqing Palace as he spoke.

If it was before, when he heard that the emperor sent such a big red envelope, Lao Wang would definitely oppose it desperately.

But now it's different, the emperor's inner treasury is piled up with gold and silver.

After retiring from the dynasty, Li Dingguo grabbed Liu Wenxiu:

"Third brother, the emperor's grace is immense, since the emperor values our brother so much, we can't live up to His Majesty's grace, how about starting to do the right thing today?"

Liu Wenxiu knew what the second brother meant, but he still joked with the second brother.

"Second brother, when I asked you to find a daughter-in-law, you resolutely didn't do it, if you have to say anything, you just find a white girl, now it's lonely! You want to work when you're lonely and bored, but the third brother still has two beautiful women at home as companions, okay in a few days? ”

Li Dingguo's old face turned red at that time, and he scratched his head in embarrassment.

After the death of his father-in-law, the only family member by his side was this third brother.

Although they are not brothers, they have been together for many years of war, and their relationship has long surpassed that of brothers.

Young people, who have been fighting abroad all the year round, and finally have a warm home, who doesn't want to enjoy it.

"The third brother is forgotten, the second brother owes consideration, you go back, and the second brother will look for you in two days."

Seeing that the second brother was deflated, Liu Wenxiu suddenly laughed:

"Second brother, third brother is joking with you, we are all given by the emperor today, as the Marquis of Daming, it is natural to pay for Daming, let's go, where to go first?"

Li Dingguo thought about it for a moment and said:

"We brought thousands of people from Sichuan, and now there are more than a thousand, they are all elites, and they are also our cronies, and this part of the people will definitely stay.

The rest of the people will choose from Huang Degong first, and then go to the new army of the Shenji Battalion and the Qi family army, of course, the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, what do you think, third brother? ”

Liu Wenxiu has always listened to Li Dingguo's words, and he nodded:

"Okay, second brother, you are in charge, I still have a hundred sharpshooters here, and I don't plan to return it to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies now."

After the two discussed, they went directly to Huang Degong's house.

They are now the marquis, and there are many servants and family members in the house, and everyone often knows each other.

The guards in front of the Huangfu Gate saw Li Dingguo and Liu Wenxiu coming, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute:

"Happy New Year, the two Hou Ye, the younger one has seen the Hou Ye."

"Excuse me, is your lord at home? Take us to meet him. ”

The guard nodded hurriedly:

"Here, the Hou Ye has just come back, and the younger one will take the two Hou Ye there."

"No, let's just go in by ourselves."

The three of them are old acquaintances, and they don't need guards to lead the way at all, Li Dingguo and Liu Wenxiu went directly to Huang Degong's inner house.

Huang Degong also just came back from the retreat from the dynasty, and his family also moved from the south, and recently accepted two concubines, and his small life was super cool.

"Is Lao Huang here? Here we go! ”

Suddenly, there was a call from two people in the courtyard, and Huang Degong knew who it was as soon as he heard the voice.

"Hahaha, these two boys are good, come to me early in the morning to greet the New Year!"

Huang Degong laughed happily and walked out of the room quickly.

As soon as the three of them met, they had a big hug.

"I said, you two boys, why did you give Lao Huang a New Year's greeting first, did the governor go?"

Li Dingguo smiled:

"I didn't go to the governor, I'm going to have a few drinks with Brother Huang."

Liu Wenxiu:

"Brother Huang, you are older than us, shouldn't you give you a New Year's greeting? Don't get drunk today. ”

The three Ming generals walked into the hall laughing as they spoke.

Immediately, a good-looking interracial beauty served them tea with a smile on her face, and then bowed down and exited the hall.

After Li Dingguo and Liu Wenxiu glanced at each other, they each took out a hundred taels of silver tickets and put them on the table.

"We don't know what gift to buy for Brother Huang, please accept it if you have a little heart."

Huang Degong immediately got up, picked up the silver ticket, and re-stuffed it to the two.

"What are you kidding, how can my brother accept your money, I can come to see my brother, my brother is already very happy."

Liu Wenxiu smiled:

"Brother Huang, don't regret if you don't accept gifts, we have something to do."

Huang Degong smiled heartily:

"Something? Say it quickly, as long as Lao Huang can help, he will not give up. ”

Li Dingguo clenched his fists in the direction of the imperial city and said:

"There is an order from the saint, let us draw 20,000 soldiers to establish a special operations force, and I hope that the Hou Ye will support it!"

"What? 20,000 elite ......"

Huang Degong, who was still smiling just now, suddenly changed his face.
