Chapter 697: When is the time for retribution?

"You slut, you'd better keep to yourself in the future, if you dare to seduce a man again, this princess will make you unable to be a woman!" Her tone was vicious and cruel, matching her expression at this time.

Leaving a threat, the woman left with her maids.

Seeing their departing backs, Chu Qiaoge's tears slipped quietly.

"The princess has become the woman of the thousand......" her voice was hoarse, and at the end she burst out laughing arrogantly.

After all these hours here, she had nothing to gain but to be toyed with and trampled on by these people.

Every day here is like living in hell, but the responsibility she bears on her can only force herself to endure.

The Chinese New Year's Eve soon arrived, and at dusk that day, An Lan and Chu Xingze hung lanterns together,

Hongqiang stood on the side and watched a little nervously, afraid that their prince and wife would fall.

"Madame, be careful, or I'll hang it." Hongqiang pulled An Lan's skirt, hoping that An Lan would come down.

Like this kind of work, they can do it themselves, how can they bother An Lan a dignified princess.

Her words made An Lan laugh out loud.

"How can this work, I must come in person to hang lanterns, and the prince and I must hang all the lanterns in the house." An Lan said excitedly.

Chu Xingze was stunned at first, and then embarrassed. He had never done such a job, and he hung up all the lanterns in the palace, which was a lot of work.

"Isn't the prince unwilling?" An Lan squinted his eyes and looked at Chu Xingze with a smile.

She knew very well that Chu Xingze was definitely unwilling. Where did you think of it, Chu Xingze actually smiled brightly.

"Whatever you say, of course this king is willing, it is the honor of this king to be able to hang the lantern with his wife, and this king will only like it." Chu Xingze changed his normal state, but became hot.

After hanging the lanterns at the door, they went to hang them elsewhere, and they were busy for nearly an hour, and almost all the lanterns were hung up.

"Madame, I have something for you." Chu Xingze suddenly grabbed An Lan's hand and mysteriously took An Lan to a place.

An Lan was puzzled, but he still went over with Chu Xingze, and Chu Xingze took An Lan to the location of the restaurant.

Inside, An Lan saw a small basin in front of him, which seemed to have a little meat filling in the basin, and the dumpling skin was placed next to it.

Chu Xingze's meaning is obvious, but he wants two people to make dumplings.

"When this king was a child, his mother would personally make dumplings for this king, and she said that this way will she have a New Year's flavor, so this king wants to make it for his wife today." Chu Xingze's eyes were full of pampering.

An Lan was amused by his words, and couldn't help but leave a kiss on his cheek, which was a reward.

Chu Xingze did not hesitate at all, sat down and began to make dumplings for An Lan.

Although there are many people in the palace, he just wants to celebrate the New Year with An Lan alone. Just like many years ago, he spent the New Year silently alone.

Chu Xingze's movements were clumsy, and he dropped several dumpling skins on the ground in a row.

Looking at his clumsy movements, An Lan was so amused that he couldn't laugh or cry, but instead wrapped dumplings with Chu Xingze. In less than a quarter of an hour, they made a lot of dumplings and asked the chef to make them.

After eating dumplings at home, Chu Xingze took the initiative to take An Lan to wander the streets. It's New Year, but the streets are bustling.

Red Rose followed them, captivated by the many knick-knacks here.

"Red Qiang, today is the New Year, if you have anything you want, just buy it, and the king will pay today." An Lan glanced at Hongqiang and couldn't help but smile and speak.

Hongqiang was stunned, he didn't expect An Lan to be so generous, Chu Xingze looked at Hongqiang with a smile, he could be regarded as a kind of promise.

Red Rose was excited.

"Since that's the case, then I'm not welcome!" With that, she strode in one direction.

Seeing her leaving, Chu Xingze also laughed out loud.

"Ma'am, let's go and have a look. An hour later, we will go to the palace to celebrate the New Year's Eve with my father, and we will always bring some gifts to his old man. A gentle smile crossed the corner of Chu Xingze's lips.

An Lan agreed to come down and go into a gift shop with Chu Xingze, which was full of gold and silver beads.

After looking around here, An Lan didn't find anything particularly suitable, so he went to another place with Chu Xingze to choose.

After walking a few steps, I saw an old woman selling made bamboo dragonflies, and this old woman An Lan happened to know.

She and her grandson once fled to the capital due to the flood in their hometown, and almost died here, and finally they were able to settle in the capital because of the imperial court's appropriation.

"Lord Wang, Faye Wong!" Seeing Chu Xingze and them coming, the old woman walked over excitedly to salute them.

"The old man doesn't need to be polite." An Lan smiled gently, and straightened the old woman up from the ground, not wanting her to be so polite as an elderly man.

"If it weren't for the princess and princess, maybe the old woman and I would have starved to death with my grandson, how could I have settled down in the capital......" Facing Chu Xingze and An Lan, she said a lot of words of thanks.

Looking at the bamboo dragonflies she sold, An Lan suddenly had a whim and took out the silver to buy one.

The old woman did not want any money, but under their compulsion she reluctantly accepted some money.

"Why don't we give this to our father?" An Lan took the bamboo dragonfly he bought and shook it in front of Chu Xingze.

Chu Xingze didn't react at first, and only then did he realize what An Lan meant.

The gold and silver beads were available to his father, but such special gifts were rare.

"Madame really has a heart, I believe that my father will like Madame's gift very much." Chu Xingze couldn't help but hug An Lan closer.

To be able to get such an understanding and gentle and generous lady is really an honor for him Chu Xingze in this life.

The two wandered around the street for a while, and Hongqiang also bought a lot of things, spending more than a hundred taels of silver.

Today is the Chinese New Year, Chu Xingze didn't care about anything, they bought a pass and returned to the palace.

The housekeeper has prepared a lot of red envelopes, and Chu Xingze and An Lan have sent them to the people here.

After that, he changed into neat clothes and planned to go to the palace to spend Chinese New Year's Eve with the emperor and others.

When I came to the palace, I found that they were already waiting in the imperial garden, and there were not too many people present today, only a few princesses and princes who were usually favored by the emperor, as well as important concubines such as the queen.

The family was lively and gathered around a table.

"Father, my son has prepared a gift for you today." Chu Yunhui smiled brightly, he took out a large box from his side and personally delivered it to the emperor.
