Chapter 44: Chinese New Year's Eve
On Chinese New Year's Eve, a royal family banquet is held in the palace.
The family banquet in the palace, in addition to the emperor and the queen mother, there are also ladies with higher positions in each palace, and those who are qualified to go are all the children of the royal family.
At this year's family banquet, although Li Song's face was bleak, he was particularly happy in his heart, because the third prince Li Cheng had returned to the court.
After many years of frontier guarding, Li Cheng made great contributions to Chen Guoguo, and at the family banquet, Li Cheng, the third prince who has always been unfavored, was praised by the emperor and named King Yong, Yong Tongyong character, which means harmony and harmony.
The emperor's intention is obvious, he hopes that the royal children can get along in harmony, but in the family banquet, although everyone talks and laughs, there are many swords and swords.
Li Song seems to be overwhelmed with alcohol today, and he got drunk early.
As soon as he got drunk, he left the family banquet early, even if the emperor wanted to take advantage of this moment to talk to him more, but there was no chance.
Li Song was staggered out of the palace by Zhou Da, but the carriage traveled fast along the way, and Li Song was bumped in the carriage not lightly, but he slept deeply.
This year's Chinese New Year's Eve, for Ning Qingyue, there is both melancholy and happiness.
At least she has left Shangshu Mansion and no longer has to be restrained by the Yuan family, but sadly, she will never be able to go back to modern times.
As soon as the carriage of King Mu's mansion returned to the palace, Zhou Da helped Li Song to Ning Qingyue's house.
To say that it was Chinese New Year's Eve, but Mrs. Rou was still grounded, she was looking forward to Wang Ye being able to lift her grounding on this important day, but looking forward to it, she was looking forward to Wang Ye coming back drunk and being sent directly into the princess's courtyard by the guards.
On the other hand, this year's new Mrs. Tea got together with Mrs. Wan, Tian's and Kong's, and the four of them were playing mahjong in Mrs. Wan's room.
Tian and Kong are actually very curious about Mrs. Tea, after all, they are the women that the prince values, although they do not have the heart to compete for favor, in fact, they are still a little unconvinced, after all, they are dedicated to the princess, but Mrs. Wan and Mrs. Tea are close, so they also try to accept Mrs. Tea.
"Twenty thousand." Tian Shi took out a card and said, "Is it really okay for Mrs. Tea to play mahjong with us at Sister Wan's place?" Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, what if Wang Ye can't find you when he comes back from the palace, what can I blame? ”
Mrs. Tea covered her mouth with a smile and said, "You also know that it is Chinese New Year's Eve, how can Wang Ye come to my house." ”
Kong: "But the prince spoils you so much, it stands to reason that on such an important day, he should accompany you for the holiday." ”
Mrs. Tea smiled: "You say so, where did you put the princess?" Although I am favored, but I also understand the difference between respect and inferiority, on such an important day today, the prince naturally wants to accompany the princess, and I still expect to learn more things from the princess, you are so mixed, in case I am disgusted by the princess, I can ask you to compensate me! ”
After hearing these words, Tian and Kong felt a little less guilty in their hearts.
Mrs. Wan and Mrs. Tea secretly looked at each other, and then Mrs. Wan smiled and said: "They are all their own sisters, and Mrs. Tea has no less respect and love for the princess than us!" ”
Mrs. Tea hurriedly nodded: "Yes! I have been learning rouge gouache from the princess for many days, and in my heart, the princess is more important than the princess! ”
To say, the Tian family and the Kong family don't have any ideas about the prince, they are both die-hard fans of the princess, and now that Mrs. Cha said this, the two naturally rejoiced.
"Since Mrs. Tea has said so, then we will often come and go in the future!" After Tian finished speaking, he played a card, "Three cylinders." ”
Mrs. Wan: "Hu." ”
Three: "......"
In Ning Qingyue's room, she was in a good mood and took out the rouge gouache she made a while ago, while Lan Wei and Forsythia were sitting in front of her, and their eyes were still closed.
"Your foundation is actually pretty good, if you put on your makeup, you might be even more beautiful than Mrs. Narou!" Ning Qingyue said as she helped them put on makeup.
To say that the two of them didn't dare to let the princess personally put on their makeup before, but they couldn't stand Ning Qingyue's soft grinding and hard bubbles plus threats and intimidation, and finally the two of them compromised.
After Ning Qingyue's description, soon Lan Wei and Forsythia seemed to have changed into human beings.
Ning Qingyue is still very satisfied with her masterpiece, if the clothes and ornaments of the two of them are changed, who can see that they are just maidservants in King Mu's mansion, I am afraid that they will think that they are young ladies from a big family.
However, at this moment, Zhou Da helped Li Song to come.
As soon as the maidservant girl outside came in to report, Ning Qingyue hurriedly got up and walked outside.
She saw Zhou Da supporting Li Song, and her heart sank slightly: "What's the matter, Lord Wang?" ”
Zhou Da said: "Wang Ye was not strong in the palace today, and he left the palace in advance, and his subordinates thought that today was Chinese New Year's Eve, so they sent Wang Ye here." ”
Ning Qingyue stepped forward and grabbed Li Song's arm, and said, "Guard Zhou, go out first, this concubine will take care of the prince." ”
On the other side, Lan Wei and Forsythia also stepped forward to take Li Song from Zhou Da's hands, Zhou Da unexpectedly glanced at Lan Wei more, Lan Wei's face was slightly red, Zhou Guard looked at what she was doing!
Soon Zhou Da retracted his gaze and said respectfully towards Ning Qingyue: "That subordinate will retire first!" ”
After Zhou Da left, Ning Qingyue and a few people helped Li Song into the bed in the inner room, and suddenly Ning Qingyue didn't know if she was wrong, she vaguely saw a smile on the corner of Li Song's lips.
"Lan Wei, Forsythia, you go out first, there is a concubine here." Ning Qingyue said.
After being instructed, Lan Wei and Forsythia blessed their bodies and went out.
As soon as the door of the inner room was closed, Ning Qingyue took a closer look at Li Song's sleeping face, and she couldn't tell which one Li Song came from, she thought about it and deliberately tried to say: "Everyone is gone, does the prince still plan to continue to pretend to sleep?" ”
As soon as she finished asking, Li Song's eyes opened. Ning Qingyue's expression changed slightly, good guy, he really pretended to be affectionate.
Li Song sat up and asked with a smile, "How did Fu Shu know that I was awake?" ”
Ning Qingyue pursed her lips slightly and said, "Guess." ”
While the two were talking, it was Li Song who got out of bed.
Ning Qingyue was puzzled: "Do you pretend to be drunk at the family banquet on Chinese New Year's Eve every year?" ”
Thinking of the Chinese New Year's Eve family banquet in previous years, Li Song's face was just disdainful.
"Not really, it's just that I didn't marry a wife in previous years, so I went back to the palace, and there was no one to accompany me, and this year I just want to come back to accompany you earlier." Li Song looked at her and said mildly.
Ning Qingyue's eyes trembled slightly, was he pretending to be drunk in order to rush back to accompany her earlier?
Ning Qingyue said a little awkwardly: "Then you are going to accompany Mrs. Tea later?" ”
Li Song's face immediately froze, and he was angry and smiled: "Dare to toss me like this, someone still doesn't appreciate it?" ”
"I didn't." Ning Qingyue hurriedly retorted.
Li Song said with a cold face: "You still say no?" Who specifically mentioned the Tea Lady again? ”
As he spoke, he took a step closer to Ning Qingyue.
Ning Qingyue subconsciously stepped back and said, "I just, just casually mentioned it, why did you react so much?" ”
Li Song sneered: "Mention it casually? Do you know that you deliberately stabbed a knife in my heart? ”
Ning Qingyue: "??? "Did she hear me right? Why did the domineering president suddenly become a resentful woman in the deep palace?
Ning Qingyue smirked: "You shouldn't be really drunk, right?" ”
Li Song continued to approach her until he forced her into a corner and came directly to a wall.
"Knock, knock, knock...... "Bad, her heart is about to jump out."
Suddenly, Li Song lowered his head, his lips leaned against Ning Qingyue's ear and whispered, "Didn't you eat Mrs. Cha's vinegar?" ”
Eat...... Vinegar?
Ning Qingyue said with an innocent expression: "I don't understand what you're saying. ”
Li Song's eyes were fixed on Ning Qingyue's face, and at this moment, her cheeks were very beautiful.
"If you don't refute, you just acquiesce." Li Song suddenly said happily.
Ning Qingyue - what kind of person is this, there are dark clouds for a while, and the sky is clear for a while.
Still default? What did she acquiesce into, and she was inexplicably jealous?
With a "bang", huge fireworks rose from the direction of the palace and rose into the air, leaving a splendid scenery in the sky.
Ning Qingyue looked towards the window, the window in the inner room was half-hidden, and she saw a little bit of an image.
In modern times, there are actually a lot of fireworks, but in the big city where she lives, fireworks have long been banned in order to protect the environment.
Seeing Ning Qingyue's gaze, Li Song turned to look, the corners of his lips hooked slightly, and he pulled Ning Qingyue's hand, and the two walked to the window and opened all the windows in the inner room.
The brilliant fireworks remained in the night sky without interruption, and Li Song's hand gently put on Ning Qingyue's shoulder and took her into his arms.
Ning Qingyue's expression changed slightly, feeling the warmth of his chest, she looked at the night sky with a smile again.
This is the first year since she recovered the memory of her previous life, and it is also the first year that she has been safe and smooth in the past fifteen years in Chen Guo.
The entire Mu Wangfu heard that Wang Ye rested in the princess's house on Chinese New Year's Eve, but everyone thought that Wang Ye was sent to the princess's courtyard by the guards after getting drunk from the palace, so the melon-eating masses who did not know the truth still thought that the relationship between the princess and Wang Ye was still average.
On the first day of the new year, Li Song went out after having breakfast in Ning Qingyue's house, as for his whereabouts, Ning Qingyue didn't know anything, but she guessed that Li Song should also go to see Mrs. Tea.
After breakfast, Ning Qingyue instructed Lan Wei to take some silver taels and gave New Year's money to the people in her courtyard, and the people got the New Year's money, and they were naturally happy.
Not long after the New Year's money was divided, Forsythia came into the house.
"Princess, Chengwangfu is sending a post." Forsythia came in and presented an invitation.
