Liu Yan looked at the people sitting in the Yilan Hall today.

Brother and sister-in-law, sister and colt, nephew and nephew...... What a big family.

It's just that the three emperor brothers and their wife didn't come.

People describe the discord between the husband and wife, saying that they are in the same bed and have different dreams. But this couple didn't even have a bed.

Life has come to this point, in fact, it is better to reconcile and separate, and it is uncomfortable to drag two people like this. The third brother of his family can marry another wife, what about the Xiao family, she can go to what kind of life she wants.

But Liu Yan also knew that his idea was too naïve.

It is difficult for ordinary couples to reconcile and separate, and there is a way to rather demolish ten temples than break a family, which shows that it is not easy for this family to become a family, and it is even more difficult to disperse.

The third emperor brother is the prince, and the royal family is going to make peace and leave, and this face and etiquette are unreasonable. As for the Xiao family, if she marries an ordinary person, then maybe she can remarry with her, but she is a princess, even if she is divorced, it is impossible to remarry.

If she dares to marry, who will dare to marry?

In fact, it's okay if their husband and wife don't come today. They don't come, everyone pretends to be okay together. They are coming, so they are so awkward that they are husband and wife, don't think about the emperor's birthday today.

She lowered her head and took a bite of the steamed yamava.

It's not too sweet, and the cooks have no problem with their skills, but this potato is still a little hard after steaming.

It's really not delicious.

Usually such a thing can't be served on Liu Yan's table, even if this material is used, it must be hollowed out to make it delicious. For example, this sweet potato, steamed and mashed into a puree, mixed with honey, milky egg yolk, etc., and then poured out a delicate shape with a mold, or fried in oil, or steamed again, how can the taste be hard? It is guaranteed to be sweet, fragrant and glutinous.

Liu Yan has always felt that he is not living a luxurious life, but today he took two bites of the most simple and least fancy steamed yam, and suddenly understood how delicate and exquisite he usually lived.

Empress Cao also knew that few people at this table thought these things were delicious.

Even the emperor didn't eat this taste, but ...... He has never returned since leaving his hometown many years ago, the distance is far away, and the situation in the court has not been stable.

He just couldn't suppress his homesickness.

And others who eat this are sinful.

Empress Cao said empathetically: "You don't have to eat the things next to you today, but you have to eat a bowl of longevity noodles." ”

Yingluo understood, and hurriedly ordered someone to live on the noodles.

Liu Yan was a little ashamed.

A few years later, she couldn't eat her usual sweet potatoes.

In her father's words, she just forgot the roots.

But at the same time of shame, she quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, there is no need to stuff this yamba down.

It was not only Shou Mian that was served, but naturally there were other dishes, and the emperor's usual favorite flavors were naturally prepared today, and no one else missed them. In front of Liu Yan, there was a fried crispy assorted meatloaf.

The patty is crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and the minced chicken is mixed with the fish, making it taste extraordinarily delicious.

Liu Fang also likes this dish, the two of you take a bite and I take a bite, and eat up a plate of meatloaf.

Empress Cao smiled and persuaded: "Don't eat too much, beware of accumulating food." ”

The eldest prince led his three younger brothers to toast the emperor's birthday, and then Princess Fuyu led several younger sisters to also salute. The emperor was in a good mood today, and drank several glasses in a row. He usually drinks a lot of alcohol, even if it is average, and it is not easy to drink, but today he made an exception and drank a little more, also because he was in a good mood.

Liu Yan doesn't like to drink, so she was given sherbet for her. Liu Fang also changed, as for Liu Yu - she is weak, the imperial doctor has long said that she can't drink alcohol, and she can't even drink more tea, and now she only has warm water in her cup from the beginning.

The longevity noodles in other people's bowls are full, but there is only one and a half bowls in front of Liu Yu, and the other half bowls are also empty, most of them are noodle soup. After all, this is the emperor's longevity noodles, and they have to be eaten in a bowl, Liu Yu's spleen and stomach are not good, if he eats a good one, it will do a bad thing. So Yingluo signaled to the eunuch early in the morning to take extra care of the fifth princess.

The second prince had two glasses of wine, and he couldn't control himself a little.

first pulled the eldest prince to drink with him, and the meaning of the words was out, as if the eldest prince's brother had to listen to him, and the eldest prince accompanied him to drink a drink, but he still didn't give up, so he had to drink again.

The emperor glanced at him and coughed.

The second prince instinctively shrank for a moment.

Anyway, he is not drunk yet, and he knows that he must be in awe of the emperor.

This reverence has been accumulated over the years, and it has penetrated into the marrow of the bones.

The second prince actually understands in his heart that his father has four sons, he is neither the eldest nor the youngest, sandwiched in the middle, some are not up or down, although he feels that he is extremely wise and powerful, and there is no one among the brothers who can compare with him, but he does not dare to make a mistake in front of his father, otherwise his father can really lock him up in the Temple of Mercy and Grace again. He didn't want to go to that ghost place again, the last time he went in and made him suffer, he was released because his father was about to get married. If I really put it in again, I don't know how long it will be this time.

The second prince attracted a lot of guests around him, and one of them was very pleasing to him, not only sweet-mouthed, but also knew a lot of stories from the previous dynasty.

There was an emperor in the previous dynasty, who gave birth to three sons and asked him to kill both, saying that the boss was plotting rebellion, and as a result, the boss was unjustly killed. When I killed the second child, I didn't even find a reason, so I killed it in a daze. The remaining third child was also locked up in a cold palace-like place for many years, and it was not until he died that the courtiers remembered that there was still such a prince, and found this unlucky bastard from the palace and succeeded him.

There is another emperor, he has a lot of sons, maybe more than he is worthless, in short, there are still two who died in the end.

His father is a person who fought hard in the battle array, and it is estimated that it is not difficult for him to kill a son.

The second prince is not afraid of his incompetent brothers, he is only afraid of the emperor.

The second prince actually secretly asked someone to calculate the hexagram, and he wanted to know if he had an emperor's life. But the fortune tellers are full of boasting, but they don't have a word accurate.

The second prince is not stupid, he knows that no one can approve this fate, can anyone approve the emperor's fate? Even if they could, who would dare to criticize it?

Even if he didn't ask for an answer, the second prince still sent someone to kill the Taoist who was said to be very strange.

His gaze swirled and turned on the table, and finally fixed on the four princes.

The boss is incompetent, and his father has never made him the crown prince, indicating that he does not care about him. The third child is rude, he is the first one who has no drama, in fact, the second prince is most afraid of the fourth brother Liu Jing.

The father and queen mother obviously favored this little son, and the last time he fell off the horse, the second prince was affected. Several brothers got married, but his wife was the only one who was chosen.

Could it be that the father and the emperor did not stand up, but had the intention of establishing a child?
