Xie Qing drank a few more glasses of wine at the banquet, and then thought about blowing the cold wind to sober himself up, and planned to walk back by himself.

"I don't have to arrange a seat." He instructed Lin Ying.

After all, he didn't dare to go back and fall asleep, there were still a bunch of things waiting for him to deal with tomorrow morning.

"Yes, Your Highness, then I will let them go back on their own."

The large number of people who followed behind Xie Qing immediately dispersed.

Lin Ying followed step by step, reminding him to pay attention to his feet from time to time.

The winter night was very clear, there were no clouds in the sky, and the night sky was as blue as a curtain, and the stars twinkled on it.

The slight breeze on his cheeks, the cold touch made him wake up a little.

The palace is so big that there are always places where the sun doesn't shine and the palace people forget to clean it, and there are still unmelted snow in some corners, reflecting the silver moonlight.

East Palace.

After the excitement, the palace people went back to their rooms to sleep. Only the eunuchs who were on duty at night were accompanied by five red palace lights, their movements were extremely careful, and their breathing was slow.

It's a little deserted.

Indoors, the candle shadow is automatic without wind, and it is extinguished brightly.

Lin Ying and the chord song waited for him to wash and undress, and after a short rest, he would continue to be busy on the morning of the first day of the new year.

Every Chinese New Year is the most torturous.

Xie Qing lay on the bed, tossing and turning, even though he had been working hard for a day, his spirit was still very excited.

When he recalled the scene in the hall, he always felt a little weird.

A beautiful girl, with an exotic flute sound, the sky is red...... There's something wrong with it.

He was dazzled and saw that someone had come lightly to cut the lanterns, and the figure was very familiar, so he asked, "Xiange, have you noticed anything strange about this woman?" ”

This person is really a string song, she was startled, and then reacted that His Royal Highness was talking about Huai Sleeve, and she hesitated: "I haven't ...... I only know that it was brought back from southern Xinjiang by the people of the Four Highnesses. “

This is really her work is not done carefully enough, Xian Ge lowered her head and bit her lip, "It's the slave who is derelict in her duties." ”

She was so focused on finding out where the woman came from, but she forgot to see if there was anything special about her.

Xie Qinglin didn't want to blame her: "You don't have to blame yourself. ”

His tone was soft, but his eyes sank.

Who is this woman who is sacred? What is unique about her to be taken by the fourth child?

The reason why he let her enter the palace was because so far, things were still under his control.

But this woman, she is as beautiful as a variable......

"Well, in a few days, I'll go to the queen mother to discuss." Xie Qinglin said softly.

Xiange has done things carefully enough, and this development is also unexpected for them at the moment.

He remembered why Xian Ge appeared here: "It's so late, why are you still here, and you haven't gone to rest?" ”

Xian Ge suddenly looked a little embarrassed, as if her mind had been pierced, she bowed her head helplessly, and said: "Bai Xu, who is keeping vigil today, is sick, and I will take her for one night." After speaking, she knelt down again, not daring to look at Xie Qinglin: "Please don't blame Your Highness." ”

Xie Qinglin sighed softly: "It's okay, you go down." ”

"Yes."

Xian Ge got up and retired, moving softly without making the slightest sound.

Xie Qinglin didn't look at her again, some things still had to be figured out by himself, he only felt that his brain was getting heavier and heavier, and he fell asleep after a while.

On the first day of the new year, the court meeting.

Chinese New Year's Eve has to be observed, and the next morning you have to get up early to attend the court meeting, which is a great torture for both the monarch and the courtiers.

But this is a rule handed down by our ancestors, and it cannot be easily shaken.

Since the Han Gaozu, it has become a common practice to meet hundreds of civil and military officials on the first day of the new year, and to accept their praises.

The emperor opened his eyes in a daze, and saw that the sky was slightly bright, and before the morning of the weekday, the sleeve had been placed in a remote palace yesterday, and he squinted his eyes, and his posture was extremely relaxed, as if he was reminiscing about something.

Even though the charcoal fire was burning, the winter morning was still cold.

After a while, he felt cold all over.

Sure enough, he was still old, he sighed in his heart.

"Pinde." He called, realizing that his voice was terrifyingly hoarse.

Pingde is now the chief eunuch of the Great Interior, and he has been with him since he was a child, and he was born in the same year as the emperor, perhaps because he is a eunuch, or maybe there are not as many labors as the king of a country after all, and he looks much younger than the emperor.

The white-faced, slightly thin chief eunuch bowed in, and led two small ones to serve him together.

"Your Majesty got up early today." The emperor's dragon robe was extremely cumbersome, and even more so it was worn at the imperial court, and Pingde said while tying the belt around his waist, "I thought you would sleep a little longer." ”

"I couldn't sleep, so I woke up." The emperor narrowed his eyes: "After a while, the order will be passed down, with sleeves and sealed...... Feng Rou Concubine. ”

Pingde's hands stiffened, and his eyebrows should be lowered.

In all these years, he had never heard of a woman who had received such an honor.

He just felt that this honor was a bit non-compliant.

But what can he say, who dares to question the words of the Long Live Lord?

When the officials came to worship, the sun was rising from the east, overflowing from the layers of clouds and mist, the ground was reflected red, and the glazed tiles reflected dazzling light.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

"Zhongqing is flat."

Several princes stood at the front, and the civil and military officials behind fought in two rows.

On Shuojun's side, Jiang Yunyu wrapped a red envelope for the two children of the shopkeeper, as a thank you for their hospitality over the past few days.

Directly give them money, but the family will not accept it.

The youngest one took it happily before the proprietress could say anything, and the second one hesitated and looked at his father and mother hesitantly.

"This ...... Miss, how embarrassing is this! The proprietress widened her eyes and refused again and again: "We can't accept this, you can take it back." ”

"If you give everything, how can you take it back." Jiang Yunyu said with a smile, and at the same time glanced at Dai Nong.

Dai Nong understood, grabbed their second child's arm, and forcibly stuffed him.

The half-grown boy blushed and lowered his head in confusion.

"Hey, you're so polite, girl." The proprietress saw that the excuse was fruitless, so she had to respond. Bring the two children to salute and thank you.

The year is over, and the business must be done, and after the third year of the new year, the inn will open for business. Mr. Bookkeeper, the one who runs the hall. The cooks also have to come back one after another.

Jiang Yunyu planned to leave for Luojing in the third year of junior high school, and she had been delayed here for a long time.

"We won't bother anymore, we plan to leave on the fourth day of junior high school, and I ask you to settle the room payment at that time."

How do you know that the proprietress refuses to let them go, and she is very enthusiastic to stay" "The girl might as well stay for a few more days, our Shuo County's lantern festival is a must." ”

Lan Qian was very interested in this: "Lantern Festival? ”

"Yes." The proprietress smiled, "Our Shangyuan Festival Lantern Festival is lively, even the capital can't compare." She said this, her brow full of pride.

Luojing's lantern festival has been famous for a long time, and there was a poem "The east wind blooms thousands of trees at night, and it blows down, and the stars are like rain." BMW carved cars are full of incense, the sound of the phoenix flute moves, the jade pot turns brightly, and the fish and dragon dance all night. And became famous all over the world because of this poem.

If it is more lively than Luojing, what kind of scene should it be?

"On the day of the Shangyuan Festival, the full name was full of lanterns, colorful, and the streets were as bright as day. The official ladies who usually don't go out of the door are also on the street on this day. ”

On the head of Daoxing, the proprietress danced with her eyebrows: "Last year, there was a famous poet who came to us from Luojing and wrote a poem." ”

Luo Jing's famous poet, how she has never heard of it.

I don't remember such a character in my memory.

"That poem is so well written, I can memorize it as an illiterate woman!"

Jiang Yunyu and Yu Leak looked at each other: Why is this person still talking more and more.

Let's just listen to what kind of masterpiece it is.

After a little thought, the proprietress really memorized this poem:

The lights and towers are splendid feasts, whose flutes and drums are noisy at night?

The light moves and the stars are near, and the shadows are full of mountains, rivers and moons.

The gold lock switch is as bright as day, and the copper kettle leaks like a year.

Wuyun does not play "Neon Dress Song", and the sky makes Lizhou look through it. ②

Hearing the word "Lizhou", coupled with this slightly familiar style, Jiang Yunyu instantly thought of someone, and she muttered in her heart, it won't be such a coincidence.

May I ask ...... you are talking about this poet?

"Oh, it's the famous Mr. Chiaki.

Really.

It's really such a coincidence.

It seems that Qu Qianqiu is doing well now, and she still has the leisure and elegance to come to see the Lantern Festival, she thought about it, yes, how could the person whom His Royal Highness the Crown Prince likes treat him badly?

However, she had never heard of such a poem in her previous life, and yes, presumably Mr. Qianqiu, who was amazing and brilliant in her previous life, had already died in Huangquan with Xu Guanhai and others.

She intentionally or unintentionally stopped Xie Qinglin from killing in Lizhou, and in fact, it also indirectly affected many people's lives...... For example, Qu Qianqiu, he has had a new life since then: he is no longer a down-and-out literati with four walls, he is no longer a staff member of the little Zhizhou, and he has even become a celebrity next to His Royal Highness the Prince.

The proprietress was still chattering about how lively the Shuojun lantern would be, as if it would be a great loss if she missed it.

Hearing her describe it like this, Jiang Yunyu couldn't help but feel a little moved.

She wanted to see it, too.

In the afternoon, the officials still did not relax for a moment. I also had to rush to my colleagues and bosses to pay my respects to the New Year.

There are especially many people coming to the East Palace, and they are about to break the threshold.

Only high-ranking officials were allowed to enter, and many more nameless petty officials were turned away, only asking them to leave prayer posts and congratulatory gifts.

Even so, there are a lot of people who flock to it.

Even if it's just a well-prepared gift, you can't even leave a name.

Lin Ying assigned the little eunuchs to put the congratulatory gifts sent by the officials into the treasury.

There were seven pieces of paper in the gift list, and Xie Qinglin just glanced at it casually and didn't ask anymore.

He had seen a lot of rare treasures, so he was not so interested, in short, they were just a pile of dead things.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year of the twenty-fourth year of the founding of the Yuan Dynasty, many stories are about to begin here.

The spring in Luojing City is beautiful, and the singing and dancing are leveling.

What evil thoughts are quietly growing under the seemingly calm surface, and how many dusty past events are buried in the yellowed pile of old papers......

And everyone's life experience has also become confusing.

The curtain opened, the characters appeared, the waves were abrupt, and the wind and clouds were darkened.
