Qin Yining knew how much sadness he had under the surface of the scenery, and when he heard him depreciate himself like this, he couldn't help but hold his hand in distress.

"Since ancient times, heroes don't ask where they come from, your wealth is what you have earned with your life, and you have exchanged for those scars and military exploits on your body, you don't need to inherit the wealth of your family, you yourself are the first generation of nobles who have made meritorious contributions! I believe that if General Xiao knew of your existence, he would be proud of you. ”

Her voice was gentle, but her tone was unprecedentedly determined, and she couldn't have listened more comfortably. But after all, he is also a mortal, and there are times when his heart is fragile. Xiao Xiao couldn't help but be willing to open everything in his heart in front of Qin Yining.

"That being said, I'm an illegitimate child after all...... When my grandmother arrives at home, the inner house will definitely be chaotic, and I am also worried that my mother, my grandfather, and grandmother will not be able to handle her. ”

"Even if there is a grandmother now, so what? She is the wife of the General's Mansion, and you are the prince of the Prince of Zhongshun's Mansion, the General's Mansion does not exist anymore, but the Prince of Zhongshun's Mansion is in its heyday, how do you treat her, it's not up to you to decide? If you are afraid that she will bully the old lady, they don't care, just give her a courtyard, so that she doesn't have to worry about eating and drinking. Will the Holy One still ask you to honor her first? ”

"I think that's what the Holy One means." Xiao Xiao smiled bitterly: "In the past, I never knew that I existed in the general's mansion, and I didn't record it in the genealogy of the Xiao family, if it wasn't for the banner of the Xiao family, the saint would not have ordered Mr. Zheng to come to me." My mother also made up her mind not to tell me about her life for the rest of her life, but only to tell me to be happy and happy for the rest of her life. ”

Qin Yining was extremely angry when he heard this, and couldn't help but say: "The saint is also a master's family, why do you put your hand into the back house once or twice." Is it a man or not! ”

The ten beauties in the house didn't talk about it, just talked about the eldest princess of Anyang, how much did Li Qitian add fuel to the fire behind it? In addition, when Xiao Xiao went out on the expedition, he invited Yao, Yao Chenggu and Ma to live in the palace at every turn, ostensibly to be close and help his brothers to be filial to their elders, but in fact, they were simply holding hostages by their side.

If he can really use conspiracy and conspiracy, Qin Yining can also admire Li Qitian.

But Li Qitian's approach really made Qin Yining unable to have a good impression.

"It doesn't matter if we are always vigilant, the soldiers will cover the water. As for who failed whom and who was more wronged, it was all a matter of the previous generation, General Xiao is no longer there, and there is no point in caring about this, and it is the most important thing to live a good life in the future. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Xiao nodded slightly, and hugged Qin Yining's arm tightly.

The two leaned together quietly, whispering to each other, and it took a while for the owl to quietly leave.

For the rest of the year, the entire capital was immersed in the joyful atmosphere of approaching the New Year.

For the Great Zhou Dynasty, the world was peaceful, the country was peaceful, the Tatars were busy with civil strife and had no time to intrude, and the north was too peaceful for a long time. Most of the Great Yan was incorporated into the territory of the Great Zhou, and the south was also pacified.

This year's Great Zhou Dynasty is all good things, and Li Qitian is also proud of the spring breeze and is very high-spirited.

But for the people of the Great Yan Dynasty, this year is the most difficult year. Because this is the first year they have lived after the collapse of the country and the death of the family, from then on, they have no foundation, just like living in the State Guest House now, even if they become officials in the future and buy a house, they will be duckweed in the Great Zhou after all.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, originally everyone in the Qin family had discussed whether to celebrate the New Year with the Yanjun Wang and his wife, Master Li, and Master Gu. But after careful analysis, from now on, Yu Chiyan will probably be just a finch in a golden cage in the Great Zhou, and he will never be able to fly again, and Li Qitian will not give Yu Chiyan any real power official position even if he is drunk.

Not only does this person have no future, but if he goes too closely with him, he may also bring disaster to his own family.

There was a dead silence in the entire guest house, and only the occasional sound of firecrackers could be heard in the street market outside.

The Qin family gathered in the main house of the small courtyard to have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

The table is full of dazzling food, with Li Qitian, the benevolent monarch, taking special care of the ministers, and the Chinese New Year's Eve dishes can be said to have put a lot of effort into the kitchen, although there is no heart to prepare the special dishes of the south for the Dayan people, but the dishes are still full of color and flavor.

It's just that the family doesn't have much appetite.

Because of the so-called reunion dinner, the family was not reunited.

The old lady looked at the whole family sitting around and sighed: "On Chinese New Year's Eve last year, where did I think that we would celebrate the New Year like this this year." ”

The second lady held the old lady's arm, patted it comfortingly, and said, "The old lady takes care of yourself, don't think about these unhappy things." ”

"Where am I happy again? Meng Ge'er doesn't know if he is doing well now, and he is still alive...... Our family easily escaped natural and man-made disasters and came to Da Zhou, thinking that the road in the future would be smooth and safe, but Meng Ge'er was kidnapped. wanted to agree to the kidnapper's conditions, but Sister Yi couldn't enter the palace......"

The old lady said and said that sorrow came from it, covered her face and whimpered and cried.

When the whole family saw it, they all showed sadness, and Miss Eight and Qin Huining also cried.

Qin Yining frowned and said, "Don't cry, old lady." Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, a day of great joy, we can't cry. ”

"You ruthless little hoof! Your father and mother don't know what's going on now, and you still don't allow me to cry? I see that you are simply cold-hearted and cold-hearted, and you refuse to worry about your parents! The old lady slapped the table and whimpered, "Why is my life so bitter!" How can such a thing happen! ”

The old lady's crying became louder and louder, causing the second lady, the second grandmother of Han and the girls to cry.

Qin Yining frowned and looked at the second and third masters, and said, "Second uncle, third uncle, crying so loudly at this time, aren't you afraid of angering the saint?" How many pairs of eyes are staring at our family, I know, it is the old lady who is worried about his son and crying, and I don't know that we are diehards of the Yan Dynasty, crying for the death of the country on the occasion of the New Year! In the future, our family will be in the Great Zhou Dynasty, whether we want to live in the end! ”

Although Qin Yining said this to the second master, his voice was not small, which was equivalent to indirectly reprimanding the ladies in the room.

As soon as the old lady heard that she would offend the royal family, her crying became smaller.

The rest of the ladies were also worried and didn't dare to cry loudly.

The second master was also very impatient with the old lady's appearance, and he even admired Qin Huaiyuan for how he could coax the old lady with a sentence or two in the past.

The second master said: "Sister Yi'er is right, we must pay more attention to everything we say and do now." Besides, Sister Yi'er secretly told me just now that she has good news to tell her family today. ”

The old lady wiped her tears and looked at Qin Yining unhappily: "What good news do you have to say?" ”

Qin Yining secretly thought that the second master was an old fox, so he actually brought the ball to himself again, and said: "There is good news, the old lady and you don't have to worry about my father, I think, within the first month of the New Year, my father will come back." ”
