It's been almost a year since I traveled to this world, and this is the first New Year that the Yuan Circle has spent here.

She has no relatives in modern times, and it doesn't mean much to her that the New Year is not a New Year, and it is just a matter of staying alone in her small rental house, cooking two more dishes for herself, buying more delicious food, and then listening to the laughter and laughter of other people's homes, looking at the fireworks of thousands of homes outside, and feeling the joy and loneliness of the New Year.

But that's no longer the case.

She has a family.

She has a husband who dotes on her, a mother-in-law who loves her, a caring maid, and a friend, she has lived a life that she has never had before, she doesn't have to lie to people with her conscience for a living, and she doesn't have to run around to make money hard. This New Year, she is no longer alone.

Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, the Yuan circle wears a new dress just cut a few days ago, she likes to wear white on weekdays, but today is the New Year, wearing white is a little unlucky. The newly cut clothes were made of red fabric, which she had specially selected, and with the skillful hands of the best tailors and embroiderers in the capital, she was very satisfied with the ready-to-wear garments.

The golden piping, the dark lines embroidered with silver thread, the jasmine flowers on it, and the wide-sleeved flowing skirt are gorgeous and full of luxury.

Xiao Zhi and Xiang'er couldn't stop admiring: "Miss is really beautiful in red." ”

"Yes, this red makes the princess's skin whiter and more delicate."

Yuan Quanquan looked at himself in the mirror, and also hooked his lips with satisfaction, "That's because your young lady is naturally beautiful, and she looks good in everything." ”

On Chinese New Year's Eve, according to the royal practice of the Dasheng Dynasty, the emperor led the royal family and hundreds of officials to the Ming Altar in the morning.

The purpose of the sacrificial ceremony is actually very simple, it is nothing more than to pay tribute to the ancestors, and then pray for good weather in the coming year, hoping that the country and the people will be safe.

Only men are allowed to participate in this festival, and women are not allowed to attend. The meditation went to the Ming Altar and the North Hall to leave a sacrifice, and the Yuan Circle accompanied the concubine to the harem.

Like the last Empress's birthday banquet, the Chinese New Year's Eve Palace Banquet was also placed in the Changle Hall, and this palace banquet was more lively and festive than the last birthday banquet.

Last time, for some reason, Yuan Quanquan did not bring Yuan Xiaobao into the palace to attend the banquet. However, this time it was the Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet, she thought about it, she couldn't all of them enter the palace, and left the little guy in the mansion, it was too pitiful.

I wanted to discuss with the concubine about bringing the little guy into the palace together, but the concubine had already packed up the little guy and took the little guy away.

What about the pickups? Entering the Minwang Mansion, that is the little son of the Minwang Mansion, that is, the big baby of the concubine, on such an important day as Chinese New Year's Eve, how can the big baby be left home alone.

As a result, the little zombie Yuan Xiaobao children's shoes made their public appearance for the first time on this important day.

The sacrifice was not over yet, and it was still early for the palace banquet to start, the concubine went to visit Concubine Qing first as usual, and the Yuan Circle accompanied her, holding Yuan Xiaobao's hand to greet Concubine Qing.

"Hello Concubine Qing, my name is Yuan Xiaobao." Yuan Xiaobao also greeted obediently under the signal of the Yuan circle.

Yuan Quanquan married into Mingwangfu for half a year, but his stomach has not moved, but he brought back a five-year-old boy from outside not long after he got married, and most of the capital knows about it. Where there are people, there is gossip, and Yuan Quanquan himself knows that in fact, there are many people behind the scenes who talk about Yuan Xiaobao as a wild seed born by her and other men outside. However, the Ghost King was clever, and he didn't know what method he used, so these doubts only lasted for a few days before they disappeared.

The Yuan Circle didn't care, whether the little zombie was her son or not, could she not know herself?

Although Concubine Qing was also curious about the origin of this child, she was an empathetic woman, so she didn't ask anything, and nodded with a smile, "You are Xiaobao?" Stretched out his hand to beckon him over, "Come, come over here, do you want to see your little brother?" ”

Yuan Xiaobao glanced up at Yuan Quanquan, and after getting her affirmative look, he walked over to Concubine Qing with his little short legs.

Concubine Qing was holding the little prince in her arms, and when Yuan Xiaobao walked in front of her, she lowered her body slightly so that he could see the little prince's face, "How is it, is the little brother cute?" ”

Yuan Xiaobao tiptoed slightly, stretched his neck to look, and the fat doll was looking at him curiously with black grape-like eyes.

Yuan Xiaobao looked back at him, and was stunned in surprise when he saw the fat doll grinning at him, then looked at Concubine Qing and nodded lightly: "Well, cute." ”

"Do you want to touch your little brother?"

Yuan Xiaobao hesitated, "...... Think. ”

Concubine Qing glanced at him encouragingly, and Yuan Xiaobao cautiously stretched out her hand, and gently poked the little prince's fleshy face with her fingers.

The little prince was poked in the face, and suddenly "giggled" and laughed, which made people's hearts soft.

Yuan Quanquan looked at the two dolls with some surprise, and thought: When she came to see the little prince for the first time, the little prince was very faceless and cried! Why did you get to Yuan Xiaobao and smile so happily?

Counting, although she is a wisp of ghost who borrows the corpse to resurrect her soul, she is barely a person. But this Yuan Xiaobao is a real zombie!

Is the little prince afraid of ghosts and zombies?

It's puzzling.

After staying here for a while, and chatting happily, a crisp female voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Brother Zhen, what a coincidence, you also came to visit Concubine Qing." ”

The sound is somewhat familiar.

The sound that followed was more familiar.

"Humble to Her Royal Highness the Princess."

It was the cute little Lori and Murong Zhen that day.

"Brother Zhen, what do you and I do with these false courtesies, I said that you don't have to bow to me." Little Lori's voice is crisp and pleasant, with the vitality of a girl and a hint of coquettishness.

Murong Zhen's voice was rigid and detached: "Etiquette cannot be abolished." ”

The voice came from the door, and everyone in the house looked up, and after a while, they saw a man and a woman coming in from outside the door, it was Murong Zhen and Xiao Loli Beitangjing, who had just met in the Yuan Circle a few days ago.

Beitang Jing adhered to Murong Zhen into the house, and when she saw Concubine Qing, she didn't salute like everyone else, but rushed over directly like a child, sat next to her and hugged one of her arms, and said coquettishly: "Concubine Qing, I've come to see you!" ”

As mentioned earlier, Beitang Jing has had no mother since she was a child, and she grew up with her grandmother. But in addition to taking care of her grandmother, in this palace, her favorite is Concubine Qing.

Concubine Qing had nothing to do before giving birth to the little prince, and in the second year after she entered the palace, Beitang Jing was born. After Concubine Rong died, the child was left unsupported, so the emperor entrusted her to Concubine Qing. Before the age of five, Beitang Jing had actually been living in Concubine Qing's Dawn Palace. At that time, she still called Concubine Qing her mother. But since she was five years old, when she saw twelve-year-old Murong Zhen for the first time, she didn't want to call Concubine Qing Mother anymore.

Because she wants to marry Murong Zhen as a bride!

I haven't seen this little girl for a year, Concubine Qing often talks about her, a few days ago she returned to the palace, Concubine Qing ordered the imperial dining room, made a table of dishes she loved, and the emperor and the two of them worked together to catch her wind.

The little princess is the only daughter of Beitangli, it can be said that she is loved in the palm of her hand, and she has been out for a year, and almost every day she thinks about whether this little girl is doing well outside, and the guards sent to protect him also send a message back every few days to report to him about the princess's every move. Now that his daughter has finally returned, Concubine Qing has given birth to a son for him, and his only brother has also married and started a family, Beitangli feels that this year is really a happy year.

Concubine Qing also really loves Beitang Jing, and raises her as her own daughter, when she was five years old, she suddenly didn't call herself her mother, Concubine Qing once asked her why, she said that she wanted to marry Murong Zhen as a bride, and Murong Zhen is Concubine Qing's younger brother, so she can't be called her mother anymore, otherwise it will mess up the generations.

At that time, Beitang Jing was still very young, only a five-year-old milk doll, and Concubine Qing didn't take her words seriously, and didn't care about it as a child's joke.

But I didn't know that this kid was serious.

Concubine Qing turned her head to look at the little girl who had grown into a slim girl, and smiled lovingly and gently: "Jing'er is here." Turning his head to look at his brother again, "Ah Zhen is here too?" ”

Murong Zhen said "um", bowed his head slightly, and saluted Concubine Liu and the Yuan Circle on the side: "I have seen the concubine and the princess. ”

The concubine smiled and nodded, and the Yuan circle was even more casual, "Hi." ”

Beitang Jing noticed that Concubine Liu was actually there, and the woman next to her ......

"You...... How did you end up here? At this time, Beitang Jing, who didn't know the identity of the Yuan Circle, was very surprised, and actually saw the woman who was looking for Brother Zhen at the gate of the mansion a few days ago at Concubine Qing's mother.

Compared with Xiao Lori's shock, Yuan Quanquan's reaction was much calmer, as if he had greeted Murong Zhen just now, and stretched out his hand with a smile: "Hey, little princess, we met again by coincidence." ”

Concubine Taifei and Concubine Qing were confused by the conversation between the two of them, "Quanquan, do you know Jing'er?" ”

Yuan Quanquan smiled: "Sort of, I happened to meet a few days ago." ”

"That's a coincidence." Concubine Qing's eyes turned around on the two of them, and she thought that Beitang Jing already knew the identity of the Yuan Circle, "You were not in the capital when your imperial sister-in-law and your imperial uncle got married, and the two of you met first when you just returned to Beijing, and it was also fate." ”

Beitang was stunned: "Imperial sister-in-law? ”

Concubine Qing was stunned when she saw that her expression was wrong, "What?" Haven't you met Qingyang before? ”

Beitangjing's mind didn't turn for a while: "I've seen it, but it's ...... Concubine Qingniang, what do you say about this woman...... This is my imperial sister-in-law? My uncle's princess? Princess Ming? ”

"Yes, Qingyang married into King Ming's Mansion in July this year, or was it a marriage that His Royal Highness King Ming personally asked the emperor to marry. But what about your rightful sister-in-law! ”

When he heard that it was actually the marriage that his imperial uncle personally gave to his father, Beitang Jing was even more shocked.

Her position as the imperial uncle and concubine has been vacant for many years, and he can't look down on many famous daughters of many families, but she has only been away from Beijing for a year, and he actually married the princess, and personally asked his father for marriage?

What is the origin of this woman in front of her, who can make Uncle Huang love so much?
