Chengwang Zhao Yu was choked by his sister Princess Gu'an's words, and he couldn't say anything, so he sat there embarrassed.

Seeing that his son was dumbfounded by Princess Gu'an's words, Wang felt very uncomfortable, raised his willow eyebrows and snorted coldly, "Your Majesty, there are more and more rules in the palace, this sister can talk about her brother like this, is it just about the concubine, not about the eldest and younger?" ”

As soon as he asked this, the emperor's face changed.

In front of the Tatar guests, he glared at Princess Gu'an with a cold face and snorted, "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a dumb person." ”

When Prince Zhao Zhen saw his sister being trained, he remembered to come forward to say something for his sister, but unexpectedly His Royal Highness the Crown Princess pulled his sleeves, making him unable to get up.

Zhao Zhen glanced at the crown princess, and saw that she was glaring at him, and he had to sit patiently.

Fortunately, the father just didn't give Gu'an a good face, and there was no other way to deal with it.

As soon as Gu'an saw the emperor talking to the imperial concubine, he immediately became anxious, and shouted again, "Father, if you don't marry, you won't marry if you die!" ”

"Come on, send Princess Gu'an back to the palace to rest." The emperor was afraid that Princess Gu'an would shout something unpleasant again, so that the third prince of Tatar would not be able to come to the stage, so he had to order the chamberlain to come up and bring Gu'an down.

Gu An cried and made a fuss, but he couldn't resist the emperor, and was dragged down by two chamberlains.

Cai Wei watched Gu An being dragged down in embarrassment in front of her, and she had mixed feelings in her heart: What about being a princess? Not everything can be left to her.

It's okay, bring this troublemaker down, no one will find trouble, and she will be more relaxed.

She raised her eyes to look at the third prince of Tatar, thinking that Princess Gu'an had said such a thing, would he still be willing to marry her?

The third prince of Tatar also looked at her, and the two of them looked at each other, and the third prince of Tatar suddenly winked at her.

Cai Wei was stunned, what did this third prince mean?

Princess Gu'an is not happy to marry His Royal Highness the Third Prince, and King Cheng does not want to marry Princess Tosto, whether he wants it or not, the emperor still can't come down.

He raised his glass to the third prince and Princess Tosto and smiled, "Two distinguished guests, I will toast you again!" ”

The third prince no longer mentioned marrying the princess, and drank the wine with Princess Tosto on his back.

No one dared to mention this matter again.

The imperial banquet lasted until the end of the day, and the emperor seemed to be a little impatient, and looked at Lin Qianzhong from time to time.

Cai Wei understood, it is estimated that the emperor is thinking about Mu Caiping.

She and Lu Ying looked at each other and smiled, thinking that the Mu family was probably going to ascend to heaven, but she didn't know how the Mu family was so proud?

The imperial concubine is very good at figuring out the holy will, and whispers softly at the root of the emperor's ear, "Your Majesty, it's late at night, and it's time to disperse." The ladies and ladies will go back to the vigil. ”

"Okay, that's it, I'll give you one last drink!" So everyone got up, drank the wine in their cups, and saluted together.

The emperor left with the concubines first, and then the crown prince and the princess left. His Royal Highness King Cheng walked out with a folding fan in a dashing manner, walked to Cai Wei, suddenly stopped, and asked, "Hasn't your mother come yet?" ”

Cai Wei hurriedly smiled, "Not yet, it is estimated that there is a lot of snow on the road, and I stumbled." Although he said this, he had already scolded Zhao Yu from beginning to end in his heart. If it weren't for this damn guy holding Widow Mu in custody, would she have been separated from her for so long? so much so that she didn't even see the widow who got married.

King Cheng shrugged indifferently, "That's not your own mother, don't worry too much." ”

Cai Wei smiled noncommittally, thinking to herself where are people like you royals, all of them have no heart and lungs.

Cai Wei and Lu Ying followed the civil and military officials out,

It's just that he didn't go far before someone shouted behind him, "Mrs. Lu, please stay!" ”

Lu Ying and Cai Wei stood still, turned around, and saw a little eunuch running panting, Lu Ying was very curious, "Dare to ask my father-in-law, but what else does the emperor command?" ”

The little eunuch hurriedly smiled and said, "It's not the emperor who called, it's His Royal Highness the Thirteenth Prince, please ask Mrs. Lu to wait for a while!" ”

Cai Wei knew what the Thirteen Princes meant, it turned out that he was still thinking about magic.

"Please also ask Mrs. Lu to tell His Highness about the magic trick just now!" The little eunuch said respectfully.

Cai Wei couldn't help laughing, these thirteen princes are still children. Anyway, if you don't explain it to him clearly, he's afraid he won't be able to sleep well tonight.

"Where is Your Highness now?"

"If you go back to Mrs. Lu, you are still waiting in the palace, please don't go with Mrs. Lu."

Cai Wei and Lu Ying glanced at each other and said, "Please let my father-in-law lead the way." ”

The husband and wife followed the little eunuch back to the main hall of the night banquet, and saw the thirteenth prince standing at the door with Princess Guling. As soon as they saw Cai Wei and Lu Ying coming, they were so happy that they stepped over the high threshold and ran towards them.

"Mrs. Lu, tell me quickly, what is the magic trick all about?"

Looking at his eager appearance, Princess Guling behind him pursed her lips and smiled, her eyes behind the veil were half crooked, "You slow down, look at the tooth loss." ”

Cai Wei and Lu Ying hurriedly stepped forward to salute, but the Thirteen Princes were so anxious that they waved their hands, "Don't make such false gifts, hurry up and tell me." ”

Cai Wei had no choice but to stand up straight, take out a cotton thread from her sleeve, and ask the Thirteenth Prince, "Your Highness, what do you think this is?" ”

"It's cotton thread." The Thirteen Princes blinked in confusion and looked at Cai Wei with a helpless expression.

Cai Wei sent the cotton thread forward and said, "Your Highness touches this thread." ”

The thirteenth prince approached, stretched out his hand, twisted it in disbelief, and suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "This cotton thread is very hard." ”

"yes, exactly." Cai Wei put away the cotton thread and said with a smile, "Actually, it's not difficult, as long as you master a certain truth, Your Highness the Thirteenth will be able to play magic." ”

Cai Wei asked for a piece of cotton thread, a steel needle and a bowl of thick salt water again, and showed it to the third prince in person.

"Soak the cotton thread in salt water, take it out and air dry. Then soak the cotton thread into the salt water, after ten times, the salt on the cotton thread has formed a salt crust, but outsiders can not see, after igniting the cotton thread with fire, the cotton thread wrapped in the salt crust turns into ashes, the salt crust will not burn, so it still maintains the original shape, and the steel needle is still hanging, this is the secret of the thread ash hanging needle. ”

"I see." The Thirteenth Prince suddenly realized, with a smile on his face, he kept praising Cai Wei, "Mrs. Lu is really smart, and she deserves her reputation!" ”

Lu Ying smiled, and the hand hidden in her sleeve couldn't help but grab Cai Wei's hand.

"Okay, you're stunned again, it's late at night, it's time for Lord Lu and Mrs. Lu to go back." Princess Guling stepped forward and pulled the sleeve of the thirteenth prince and reminded.

"Yes, yes, it's time for you to go back. I'll have to try. The thirteenth prince smiled embarrassedly, and hurriedly ordered the little eunuch, "Send Lord Lu and Mrs. Lu out of the palace gate." ”

Although he is only twelve or thirteen years old, he is a noble man in the end, and he has the demeanor of a heavenly family everywhere he acts and speaks.

Cai Wei glanced at Princess Guling with a smile, and suddenly said, "The courtiers went back to make a hat for the princess, and sent it over another day, and I hope the princess will not dislike it." ”

Princess Guling nodded slightly, and there seemed to be a little white light in her eyes.

Cai Wei didn't know how to get along with such a person, but few people could treat her sincerely. Whether she is sincere or not, Gu Ling should be able to tell the difference, right?

It was late when I got home.

Cai Wei was a little tired, but Lu Ying pulled her and didn't let her sleep. The ancients paid the most attention to keeping the year, and Cai Wei could only follow the customs.

The two of them sat in the room, and in front of them was a large rosewood table, on which the food and wine that had just been heated were already arranged.

There were several braziers burning in the room, and it was not cold when it was warm, and there was a table of dishes in front of the table.

Lu Ying held the pot in one hand and the lamp in the other, poured a glass of wine for Cai Wei, brought it to her with her own hands, and said with a smile, "It's really hard for you tonight, I'm afraid I haven't eaten, okay?" Eat a little more. “

It was difficult to resist the hospitality, Cai Wei took the glass wine glass, and Lu Ying diligently handed over a pair of chopsticks and ordered the dishes on the table, "These are all freshly cooked dishes in the kitchen, not as good as those in the palace, you can pick two light ones to eat." ”

Since Cai Wei successfully lost weight, she has eaten very little dinner, let alone so late. However, tonight is Chinese New Year's Eve, and she is not in the mood to eat well in the palace, so she only cares about guarding Princess Gu'an with a heart.

Therefore, she still followed Lu Ying's words and took a few chopsticks and vegetables to eat.

While drinking a little wine, the two had endless words, from the first acquaintance of the two, until they entered Beijing, and then talked about their future life, and before they knew it, it was midnight.

Cai Wei was not yet happy, and asked Lu Ying with a small face, "Do you say that the third prince of Tatar really has a crush on Princess Gu'an?" ”

Lu Ying sneered, "The third prince of Tatar has a good character and appearance, and Princess Gu'an is so arrogant and willful, how can he take a fancy to it?" ”

"Xu has taken a fancy to the status of the princess?" Cai Wei blinked, guessing.

After all, Princess Gu'an is born from the queen's mother, and the current prince is a compatriot, and when the prince ascends the throne, she will be extremely noble.

Who knew that Lu Ying was disdainful, "Look at the third prince, it doesn't look like a soft eater." In this world, men have the ability, who will rely on women to take the position? ”

Cai Wei glanced at him meaningfully, is this guy talking about himself?

Lu Ying realized something, and hurriedly smiled and hugged Cai Wei, and smiled, "I am different from the third prince, I like to eat Madame's soft rice." Our lady's grade is higher than that of her husband, and she is waiting for your husband to support her. ”

He deliberately made a pitiful look as he spoke, making Cai Wei smile and lean back, pointing at his forehead coquettishly, "You, you, I don't know you yet?" ”

The sound of bangzi sounded outside, and fireworks were lit from somewhere, crackling and crackling.

Lu Ying stood up and pulled Cai Wei up, "Let's go, let's go outside too." ”

Cai Wei was not very interested in this, she drank a few glasses of rice wine, dizzy, and wanted to fall asleep on the kang, but seeing that Lu Ying was so excited, she had to follow him to have fun.

The little five and six hurriedly put on a big coat for her, and came to the courtyard with the two masters in their arms. The little three and four were ready, lit the fire, lit a torch, far away, and bowed over to light the firecracker.

Lu Ying scolded with a smile, "That's it!" ”

Cai Wei just wanted to laugh when she saw it, and thought to herself, setting off a firecracker also has such a posture, it's really a bit overkill!

The firecrackers in the yard lit up, crackling loudly, and the yard was full of red or green light, thunder on dry days, and whackling rats...... It's so lively.

Cai Wei and Lu Ying raised their heads, and when they were shooting, they looked at the fireworks in the sky, and when they looked at it, Cai Wei suddenly became sad. It's not my mother's when, quietly. It's a pity that he can't see such gorgeous fireworks now. You should look at the flowers of the full moon, pat her hand and say, she will definitely know your intentions, and when she is brought over, we will let her live a good life, no longer as hard as before, if she wants to watch fireworks, I put it on him every night to watch TV, okay, I just mentioned it casually, where is it so delicate. Even if the sheep comes, it is still an idle person. If she wanted to set off fireworks every night, she was afraid that she would not be able to stop being angry, and the two of them laughed for a while. All of a sudden, point at it. The place where fireworks and firecrackers are lit not far away is waiting for Li Qiang, that is Li Ruzhou's home, and the people who will go will take a look, and he should be not far from our mansion. We can see his words in tongue very clearly. It's just that it's late now, and it's not convenient for us to go over. Let's wait for tomorrow morning. There are no people who get up early to pay New Year's greetings, so it is better to go to her to see. The two of them set up to take her hand into the house forever.

We drank a lot tonight, it was simple to enter the house, I couldn't hold it after washing, I climbed on the kang and fell asleep, and I recorded to see how well he slept steadily, and I couldn't help but laugh dumbly, and it was almost over, and my clothes were on the kang. The two of them woke up until dawn, and when they got up, they looked at each other and smiled. Lu Yun suddenly had a feeling that the years were quiet. Looking at the delicate face of the person in his arms. I just feel that this kind of life of invisibility is the real steadfastness and beauty he wants.

The two of them put on new winter clothes, washed up and had some breakfast, and were about to go to Luzhou in the second half of the year, but before they got out of the gate, the doorman hurriedly came to report, saying that it was from the British government. Lu Ying couldn't help but stand still, rubbing her brows, and her face was unhappy. I haven't been to work for several years, why did I suddenly come here today? He understood that he had been out for the past few years. In the barracks. Chacha, bloody battle, no one in the family wrote a letter to ask him, after he returned to Beijing. During the Chinese New Year, they were all lonely 001 people at home, and no one on the British kung fu side ever thought of him. Later, it was silent, and the Jinyi guard commanded the envoy. The English Palace and the British Lady of the Fukuya Palace are too detailed. Go around with her. Tonight, this New Year, the two of them came hand in hand, and brought the lion and the lion lady. It is said that there is no elder brother to do it for the younger brother, but the British duke and the British duchess have to bow their heads for the sake of the future of their eldest son.

Even if the British Duke was very unhappy, but at the moment he could only ask for Lu Ying, an upstart in the court, he could only suppress his unhappiness and bring his wife and son and daughter-in-law to the door in person.

All of his fathers have come to his son to pay New Year's greetings, presumably Lu Ying can't kick them out, right?

After all, the current emperor rules the world with benevolence and filial piety, and Lu Ying can't and doesn't dare to do the opposite!
