The two returned to the banquet again, this time changing their clothes, which had been delayed for at least three quarters of an hour, and everyone had been waiting for a long time.

Fang He and Fang Mu, the two children, had been waiting impatiently and began to sweep the delicacies on the table. Fang He grabbed a chicken leg and gnawed it so much that his mouth was full of oil, and even his face was only oily. Fang Mu took a rice cake in one hand and a melon and fruit in the other, and ate it with a bow left and right.

Xiao Yuan returned to the banquet, and when he saw that Fang He's behavior had lost the prince's dignity, he hurriedly snatched the chicken leg from his hand, wiped his mouth with a cloth towel, and kept scolding, "He'er, as the king of the county, you act without etiquette, like a hungry ghost, what kind of body do you become?!" ”

Seeing Fang He, the princess held her mouth, wanted to cry but didn't dare to cry, and smiled, "It doesn't matter, the county lord of Anping is still a daughter's family, and she is not in a proper manner, so I didn't scold." ”

When the princess saw that Fang Yuan had returned, she got up and said, "The horse has been delayed for so long, and it is finally back, I thought I went to the tailor shop to make a new one, heh!" Tell me your New Year's greetings, and we'll have a feast! ”

Fang Yuan's mood was low, and he slowly raised his wine glass, and swallowed the words back to his mouth. He had prepared New Year's blessings before the banquet, and had blessings for everyone, including the princess, Xiaoyuan, Chen Yuanyuan, and every child, but he couldn't say it at this moment.

After a long time, he finally raised his glass to everyone, first did it as a respect, put the wine glass on the table, and said lightly, "Since everyone has been waiting for a long time, I won't talk nonsense." Princess, Mrs. Yuan, Yuanyuan, Fang He, Fang Mu, Fang Lin, Fang Yu, family and everything is prosperous, and I encourage you! ”

The people who drank drank wine, those who drank tea drank tea, and those who drank milk drank milk, all at once.

The princess looked at Fang Yuan in astonishment, and a clear-eyed person could see at a glance that he was in a bad mood, which made the atmosphere very dull.

Fang Yuan had respected everyone, and it was everyone's turn to pay tribute to Fang Yuan one by one.

As the hostess of the backyard, the princess was naturally the first in line, picked up the wine glass first, toasted Fang Yuan and said, "Donkey, I only hope that today next year, we can sit in the imperial garden of the Forbidden City in Beijing and spend the Spring Festival together." ”

The princess's words actually made her stand clear to Fang Yuan, wishing Fang Yuan a successful Northern Expedition next year, attacking Beijing City, and dominating the world.

If a wife is like this, what more can a husband ask for?

Fang Yuan sighed secretly, holding his wine glass and was about to speak, but he heard the princess say softly again, "Donkey, I also hope that my father and mother can also participate together, this is also a family and everything." ”

Fang Yuan was stunned, the princess was pleading with him when she said this, if she captured Beijing City, could she let Emperor Chongzhen go, and Empress Zhou would have a way out.

Fang Yuan pinched the wine glass and pondered for a while, touched a glass with her, smiled at her slightly, and accepted her request, "Princess, Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is your relative, and they are also my dearest. What's more, Your Majesty has the grace of knowing me, and I don't need you to say it, I will also make him both rich and glorious. ”

The princess toasted, and in order, it should have been Xiaoyuan, who entered the house first among the concubines. But Xiao Yuan pretended not to see what to say to Fang He in a low voice, and did not get up to toast.

Chen Yuanyuan, who was ranked third, could only support his pregnant body, raised a cup of tea, and replaced the wine with tea, "Fang Lang, I really thank you and the princess for giving Yuanyuan a haven, Yuanyuan respects you and the princess." May Fang Lang succeed in the Northern Expedition as soon as possible and dominate the world. May the princess be blessed and healthy, and the mother of the world. ”

Fang Yuan raised his glass and walked up to her, drank a drink with her, and then comforted her softly, "Yuanyuan, you are about to give birth, you can't stay for a long time, go back and rest early." ”

He ordered the two palace maids to support Chen Yuanyuan to rest, and then it was the turn of Fang Mu, Fang Lin, and Fang Yu to be led and hugged by the palace maids to congratulate Fang Yuan. Only Fang He was guarding the small garden, unwilling to come forward to toast.

The princess asked Mama Liang and the three or five palace maids and eunuchs to take Fang Mu and the three of them down to rest, and above the lobby, she knew that there were four people left: Fang Yuan, the princess, and Xiaoyuan's mother and son.

Xiao Yuan whispered a few words in Fang He's ear, then handed him two cups of tea that were poured and asked him to take them to Fang Yuan's tea.

Fang He came to Fang Yuan with two cups of tea, looked back at Xiao Yuan, and after receiving Xiao Yuan's encouragement, he took a cup of his right hand to Fang Yuan, and said in a childish voice, "Father, I toast you with a cup of tea." ”

Fang Yuan took the teacup handed by Fang He, his eyes fell on the green and faint tea in the teacup, and he was silent, but he didn't drink it for a long time.

Fang He took a sip of the tea in his cup, stared at Fang Yuan with a pair of big eyes, and asked in amazement, "Father, why don't you drink it?!" ”

Fang Yuan's gaze moved away from the tea, and as soon as he looked at Fang He with anticipation and eyes, he no longer hesitated, raised his head and drank a cup of tea, and the teacup was also placed on the table.

Seeing Fang He, Xiao Yuan obediently toasted the tea, stepped forward to put his arms around his shoulders, and said with a pleasant face, "He'er, you go down to play with Fang Mu and them first." ”

Fang He pulled her arm and shook his head constantly, "No, I can only see my mother twice a month, I want to play with my mother!" ”

The princess glanced at Wang Chengen, Wang Chengen stepped forward with knowledge and interest, bowed down and said, "Little prince, let's go with the old slave!" ”

He couldn't help but say, holding the noisy Fang He and waiting outside the lobby.

Xiao Yuan looked at Fang He, who was noisily leaving, wiped away her tears, got up, poured three glasses of wine with the wine jug again, and gave Fang Yuan and the princess a glass with two glasses of wine, and she raised a glass by herself.

Xiao Yuan looked at the princess who had been fighting for several years and said, "Princess, you, finally won!" ”

The princess stared at her flower face and said lightly, "Who wins or loses, who can tell clearly?" Mrs. Yuan, I only hope that you will change your mind and change your past in the future! ”

Xiao Yuan's gaze fell on Fang Yuan's body, staring at it tenderly for a long time, and then smiled miserably, tears crossed his cheeks again, "Childe, meeting you is the greatest happiness of my life." I, I respect, I respect you. ”

Fang Yuan looked at her pear blossoms and rain Chu Chu pitiful, his heart was also sour, he looked at the wine glass in his hand again, his face was twitching slightly, and the hand holding the wine glass was also trembling slightly.

Seeing that he was slow to drink, Xiao Yuan smiled bitterly and drank the wine in the cup.

Fang Yuan saw her take a sip, closed her eyes slightly, drank all the wine in the cup, threw the wine glass out with her hand, and sat back at the table.

Xiao Yuan looked at him with trepidation, and suddenly said, "Gongzi, Ma Lin and Sun Chuanting have already secretly colluded, and in the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, that is, tonight, they will raise troops to rebel and lead troops to attack Nanzhili. Sun Chuanting will also go south to Fengyang again to contain the Xuanjia army in Fengyang. ”

Fang Yuan didn't see the slightest surprise, glanced at each other with the princess, and said slowly, "This, I have already taken precautions, and secretly ordered Chigutai and Zhao Quanzhong to lead 40,000 Xuanjia iron cavalry to the north to meet the invading Ming army. As for Malin, I have secretly transferred Zhang Ying to lead the elite of the 20,000-foot battalion, and the 5,000-strong special combat army secretly went south, and has already set up an ambush in Huzhou Mansion. ”

Xiao Yuan saw that he had already taken precautions, and was slightly stunned, and continued, "Zheng Zhibao from the Taihu base also received a letter from Zheng Sen, asking him to stand still tonight and watch the success or failure of this rebellion. ”

Fang Yuan also seemed to have already made up his mind, and said slowly, "Zheng Zhibao has escorted the messenger to the palace and handed it over to the palace for treatment. He also led the army back to Suzhou Mansion and stationed in Suzhou Wei, preparing to enter the city of King Qin. ”

Xiao Yuan's delicate body trembled slightly, cold sweat flowed on his forehead, and he said again, "Zhao Ting, the Jinyi guard who guards Suzhou City, has also been bought by Ma Lin and them, and is ready to take advantage of the Spring Festival to attack the palace." ”

Fang Yuan's cold face was already full of victory, and he said with a sneer, "Ma Yishan has already received the will, and went to join Zheng Zhibao who entered the city, and went to the Jinyi Guard in Suzhou to quell the rebellion. ”

Xiao Yuan saw that he was already in all aspects, and Hong Chengchou's so-called seamless rebellion was easily resolved by him, "It turns out that everything is in the hands of Gongzi." ”

Fang Yuan clapped his hands, Qiu Lin walked out of the back hall and stood beside the princess, "Mrs. Yuan, I, I told the regent and the princess all the plots. ”

The princess sneered and said, "Mrs. Yuan, you can't imagine that your closest person betrayed you, right?" Tonight's banquet is actually for your wife! ”

Fang Yuan stared at her eyes coldly, and said in a deep voice, "The only thing I don't control is whether you, Mrs. Yuan, will you really poison the wine!" ”

Xiao Yuan laughed miserably again, Hua Rong twitched slightly, bit her lips, covered her stomach with her hands, and her body gradually shrank, curling up and panting violently.

Fang Yuan was taken aback when he saw Xiao Yuan's sudden situation, this was really beyond his expectations, could it be that Xiao Yuan not only didn't poison him, but also drank his own wine?!
