Seeing that it is the end of the year, the East Palace also has to take care of the preparations for the New Year.

This task fell on Huilan, and at present, she is the only concubine in the East Palace, so she naturally deserves it.

She didn't shirk, she took it without hesitation, these things were independently undertaken for five years when she was at home, and the children of the first-class Xiuzhen family not only asked for cultivation, but also had a lot of things to learn, and even had the ability to independently manage a city and contribute to the expansion of the family's territory.

I was busy until the Chinese New Year, and she was well organized everywhere, and she was very neat inside and out.

Many posts were sent to her desk, but they were all politely rejected, she knew very well that she was a concubine after all, but she was only looked down upon by the light of the prince.

At this time, it is not appropriate to rush to win over the official's wife, and when the princess enters the door, she still has to give way, and if the name is not right, it will make people laugh at the tiger skin and pull the banner, why bother.

Chang Ji came to the study with a bunch of posts, "Master, this is a post sent back by Qinghui Garden, let you refuse." ”

"Oh, why isn't she a single one?"

Li Chengze is writing big characters, and Lan'er's handwriting is better than his own, so he can't do it if he doesn't practice.

"Liangdi said, she is a concubine, it is not good to go to the scenery in the name of the prince, and it is better to keep a low profile in the East Palace.

There are also queens and emperors looking at it, it seems that she is too arrogant, and it will be too late to do these things when the princess enters the door. ”

Li Chengze chuckled, "This girl is really too lazy, forget it, she is afraid of being in the limelight, so she will put it in Lonely, so she will refuse it this year, just be polite." ”

"Yes."

"Send some golden melon seeds and golden peanuts to Qinghui Garden, and you have to give a reward for the New Year, don't let her lack silver."

"Yes. There are also some tribute pearls and jewelry in front of you, so you can see if you want to pick some and send them. ”

"Well, send a box of pearls over, and some good goods like sapphire and ruby will also be sent over."

"Yes."

Chang Ji sighed in his heart, since the lord moved to Qinghui Garden, he has never stopped rewarding, and the master has to think about her in his heart if he doesn't go, and he has to reward Qinghui Garden from time to time, for fear that someone will mistreat this Liangdi.

According to the miscellaneous family, the master is really worried, even the crown princess has eaten her head, where is she a bully little white rabbit, she is clearly a little wild cat, fierce.

Chang Ji went to Qinghui Garden with a gift to reward, and after reading the reward, Huilan got up, "Thank you Chang Gonggong for a trip, a little meaning is not a tribute."

In addition, I stewed a cup of soup for Ye, you can help me bring it over, and I won't go to the study. ”

"Okay, the miscellaneous family will definitely bring it, thank you Liangdi for the reward."

Chang Ji happily accepted the purse and his heart was full of joy.

Chang Ji returned to the study with the soup, "Master, Master Ding stewed soup for you, and a pair of gloves for horseback riding." ”

Specially made gloves with five fingers separated, made of very ordinary cotton cloth, with a thin layer of cotton sandwiched inside, warm and convenient to pull the reins.

Li Chengze put it on just right, showed a satisfied smile, and his eyes also showed a warm look.

"Master, the soup should be drunk while it is hot, the effect of the medicine is not good when it is cold, Master Ding asked the slave to urge you."

The medicinal diet soup is also divided into treatment courses, and you should rest for a while after drinking a course of treatment, otherwise the effect of the medicine will get worse and worse.

"Okay."

He took off his gloves and sat down to drink the soup, this time the smell of the medicine was stronger, but the taste was still very good, and he drank it all slowly.

The body is hot and slowly exercising and pranayama, and there seems to be warm currents running through the whole body, which is very comfortable.

"What is she doing in the yard?"

"There are a lot of wines, all kinds of wines. According to Xiao Yuanzi, the wine brewed by Liangdi is particularly delicious and very rare. ”

"This girl is a talented person, she is weak and doesn't value fame and fortune, and she can't wait for others to know, for fear that others will disturb her tranquility."

Li Chengze likes Huilan's temperament very much, he is not pretentious or pretending, he is frank and upright, he laughs and scolds all colors, he is never hypocritical and has a casual and lively personality, and he is very comfortable to get along with.

"When the slave went, he saw a picture on the bookcase, it seemed to be a red plum after the snow, and the slave didn't know how to draw, and he thought it was very good."

Chang Ji said a few words of praise, and the master's preference is his preference.

"Her paintings are very high level and attainments, which ordinary people can't compare."

Li Chengze couldn't help but look up at the landscape picture hanging on the wall of the study, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, he was open-minded and generous.

Chang Ji secretly gave a thumbs up in his heart, it is really rare to let the prince hang the paintings in the study to enjoy, how many famous Confucian paintings are not qualified to hang in the prince's study.

All the affairs of the East Palace this New Year are all handled by Huilan, and these things are very easy for her, and they are not difficult.

However, she has already begun to settle the accounts clearly, and she will return them to Li Chengze after the New Year, and she can give it to her when the princess enters the door.

The New Year's Sect wanted to attend the banquet, but she didn't take her there this time, and she didn't ask for it herself, because it was too cold to eat the banquet in winter, and it was purely a matter of sin, so she didn't go.

But Li Chengze came to see her when he was free.

"Little things. Your life is leisurely, do you still have something to eat, and your chest is attached to your back. ”

"Cloves go and bring the hot soup and serve a few simple dishes."

"It's cold at night, so I let people stew the broth and keep it warm on a low fire, thinking that if Zelang comes, he can also eat a mouthful of hot noodle soup, and Hu Cake, I stew mutton bone soup."

He took off his coat and stuffed a stove in his hand, and his hands were cold, which showed how cold it was outside.

"It doesn't snow much this year, but the weather is very cold, and my feet are cold when I sit in that hall for a while, and the dishes are all white, I can't put my mouth down, only the wine is still warm."

He muttered and sat down.

"It's really cold, or I wouldn't want to go to the feast."

"It's right if you don't go, it's too cold, why are you doing this fun, you're guilty of the old nose. I see your crown princess. ”

Huilan sneered and laughed, "How did it become my family, my grandfather is your wife, not mine." ”

I shook my head with a smile and didn't admit that it was my family.

Li Chengze also laughed out loud, and dragged her to sit down, "Stinky girl grab my handle, see how I clean you up." ”

Reaching out to tickle her, she giggled and fell into his arms laughing.

Looking at her little face crimson, I couldn't help but feel sorry for her, kissing her little face, like a feather gently brushing her face, crispy and itchy.

"Master, the meal is here."

"Come in."

Li Chengze coughed lightly and got up.

Lilac came in with a hot meal, set it up and then retreated.

"Noodles or cakes?"

"Eat the cake, I'll take a sip of hot soup."

"Okay."

Huilan served him a bowl of hot mutton soup and sprinkled bay leaves to remove the smell. I also brought him a hot cake, a plate of paper-thin slices of mutton, and a few refreshing side dishes.

Li Chengze slowly drank the hot soup, broke the cakes and threw them into the soup to eat together, a bowl of hot soup was in his stomach, and he felt that he was alive after taking a comfortable breath, and he was about to be frozen stupid.

"By the way, you just said that you saw the crown princess, why did you come on such a cold day?"
