Chapter 497: Warmth

Finally, Myanmar, the last country in the South Seas, also fell into the attack of the Ming Dynasty, and Hou Xuanyan was not very worried about the war, and he had a great grasp of this battle.

Now the eyes of the court are focused on one thing, it will soon enter December, and there will be a new emperor year name at the beginning of the new year, and for Ma Lingyao and others, they will also persuade Hou Xuanyan to adopt a new country name.

In the past few years, the winter has been as cold as a year, and places like Jinling are at the junction of the north and south, and the temperature is even colder than that of Jiangbei.

The eunuchs and maids in the palace were busy cleaning up the palace and cleaning the corners and corners. The busy palace maids and eunuchs all had beaming faces and were ready to welcome the New Year.

Hou Xuanyan felt a little depressed in the dormitory, and after getting up early in the morning, he played a set of five poultry plays, and Xiao Lizi took a group of eunuchs and palace maids to applaud loudly.

Hou Xuanyan took the towel, wiped the sweat on his face, and scolded with a smile: "This is a set of gymnastics to strengthen the body, and it is not a boxing technique, what are you guys calling here." If I was looked at by someone who knew how to do it, I wouldn't have to be laughed at. ”

The New Year is approaching, and as soon as we enter December, even the air smells of the New Year. Watching groups of hard-working palace people cleaning the palace, Hou Xuanyan stopped thoughtfully, and the two young chamberlains supported each other, picked up the lanterns, opened their mouths and blew up a puff of dust, and the two of them coughed.

After a while, they put down their lanterns, looked at each other angrily, froze for a while, laughed at the same time, and went on with their shoulders folded.

Hou Xuanyan turned to Xiao Li Zi and asked, "Listen to your accent, it's from the north, right?" ”

Xiao Lizi didn't expect the saint to ask him this question, so he was flattered, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the slave is from Datong, Shanxi. ”

"Datong is a good place, not much better than Jiangnan, especially now, backed by the military orders of Jingbei, it has become rich here." Hou Xuanyan said while saying that Xiao Lizi's heart was warm, and he joked: "This is all thanks to Your Majesty's blessing, so I gave the township party a bite to eat." ”

Hou Xuanyan laughed twice and said: "How can I have any great blessings, Jin Shang was skinned and uprooted by me, and it is estimated that there are still a large number of people who are implicated and scolded me behind my back." Hey... Datong. ”

"Those are all damn thieves, Your Majesty killed them, and no one in the whole Shanxi will be applauded."

Hou Xuanyan didn't plan to talk about state affairs with a eunuch, so he asked, "How long have you not been home?" ”

Xiao Lizi was stunned when he heard this, when the eunuchs had a holiday, especially after his godfather Wang Xiangnian's father-in-law left, his status in the palace skyrocketed, even if he let him go, he was unwilling.

"Back to Your Majesty, it has been seven years since the slave maid entered the palace in Beijing."

Hou Xuanyan pinched his fingers and calculated, he should have entered the palace from Beijing and fled to the south. It is also possible that the old man of the Tang Dynasty Mansion followed Emperor Longwu to the south. Speaking of which, these eunuchs and palace maids are really pitiful, as soon as they enter the palace gate, they are as deep as the sea, and the Spring Festival is a day for family reunion, and few of these people can go home for reunion.

Hou Xuanyan said simply: "We Han people pay attention to filial piety first, you go back and count it, divide the palace maids into two batches, choose half of them to go home for the New Year this year, and return to the Forbidden City three months later." If there is a long road, you can raise money to charter a boat to go by water, and half of the boat fare will be distributed from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, or you can get together with your relatives. ”

As soon as Hou Xuanyan's voice fell, a large number of people knelt down next to him, and many people couldn't stop thanking him with tears in their eyes.

"Get up..."

After the news spread in the palace, cheers came one after another, Hou Xuanyan came to the harem in a good mood, just in time for Yang Fujin to take the princess and King Jing to greet Huang Ying'er.

It is no secret that King Jing Zhu Linhao is a girl, and everyone with a little status knows it.

The two little Lolitas are carved in pink, with red lips and white teeth, wearing red jackets, and they are very cute when they walk.

Seeing Hou Xuanyan coming in, everyone hurriedly got up and hugged him into the hall.

Huang Ying'er was wearing a palace dress, looking a little bit like a mother, and Yang Fujin was wearing a moon-white white silk jacket with a snow-white skirt, like a snow lotus, which was very eye-catching.

After Hou Xuanyan sat down with a smile, he stretched out his hand and called the children in front of him, Hou Wanshu replied shyly, her big eyes flashed, and her personality was not like her father at all, but Zhu Linhao seemed to be Hou Xuanyan's own child, looking left and right for a moment, and her little head was stretched left and right.

Hou Xuanyan stretched out his hand and pressed the two little heads, rubbed his left and right hands lightly, and said: "In this deep palace, Tai is also boring, so you don't have to be restrained and etiquette, otherwise it will be even more boring." ”

Huang Ying'er pinched a melon seed, hooked the tip of her tongue, stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty, will we go back to Suzhou Mansion this year?" She has her own industry in Suzhou, and a bunch of personal soldiers left behind by Yasukuni Gonghuang Degong are opening factories under her instruction and Hou Xuanyan's connivance. There are many factories in the south of the Yangtze River, all of which used to be private, but since the Lianghuai Salt Factory, "state-owned enterprises" have gradually increased. Huang Yinger's factory income is not high, but it is enough to support her to squander it casually, and she can also support her own henchmen.

"This year is not idle, it is estimated that there are a few major events, all of which will be done at the end of the year." As soon as Hou Xuanyan talked about state affairs, Huang Ying'er immediately stopped taking care of the stubble, and continued to eat melon seeds.

Hou Xuanyan had some feelings in his heart, so he asked the whole family to be called, and after a while, more than a dozen well-known harem concubines who hired Tingting gathered in the palace.

Hou Xuanyan sat at the top, set up a table of family banquets, a table of warblers and swallows toasted one after another, a group of female porridge, and the atmosphere was very warm.

Hou Xuanyan's gaze swept over the faces of his big and small wives one by one, everyone was very moisturized, and even Gu Ling'er had a little more charm than before.

---

After the end, Hou Xuanyan stayed in Huang Ying'er Palace nearby, the two show pillows were stacked together, and Hou Xuanyan pillowed his palms, half lying on the edge of the bed. In the copper basin on the ground, two pairs of Rouyi slowly scrubbed his feet, and the water temperature was very comfortable.

The identical twin sisters were squatting on the edge of the collapse to wash his feet, and the two freshly washed fragrant bodies were covered with light yarn, and the two sisters were delicate and beautiful with the green silk hanging down.

The two sisters raised his feet smartly, and just wanted to wipe the two big feet clean with a soft silk scarf, Hou Xuanyan directly raised his feet and rubbed them in the two soft places to wipe his feet. The two twins had to hold their chests up, their pretty faces were ruddy, and they exhaled Ruolan.

Huang Ying'er snuggled in Hou Xuanyan's arms, her eyes were full of spring, and the corners of her eyebrows and eyes were full of charm, not at all dignified and elegant when she wore palace clothes during the day.

It's just an overnight affair, and there is no need to elaborate...
