Duke Wei came to invite them to the banquet of the New Year Palace at the behest of the Queen Mother.

In addition to the palace concubines, the three princes, and several clansmen with close bloodlines who participated in the palace banquet, all of them were men, and the two girls Wang Caidan and Hu Mingzhu were particularly conspicuous among them.

Zhao Chengyuan came in with Han Youning's hand, and everyone got up and saluted, saying that the New Year was auspicious.

Zhao Chengyuan's status is the highest among the clansmen, and their seats are naturally the highest.

Zhao Chen sat opposite them, and after saluting, he sat and drank tea with his eyes down, with an indifferent expression. Behind him are Wang Caidan and Hu Mingzhu, and their future identities are self-evident.

Han Youning sat with his waist straight and his demeanor dignified. She is now the princess of Jin, so she should pay extra attention to her demeanor.

Zhao Chengyuan poured tea for her and said with a smile, "Take it easy, I'm afraid I'm going to be tired after a whole night."

Han Youning tilted his head slightly and said softly, "I'm used to it, and I don't feel tired. It's never too late for me to take it easy when I go back to celebrate the New Year."

Zhao Chengyuan smiled, "You didn't take a nap today, let's see how many more hours you can last."

Han Youning frowned slightly, "Yes...... Since I was a child, I haven't survived until I was a child. Lord, will you talk to me more often, or will you tell me a story?"

Zhao Chengyuan glanced at the other side, and Zhao Chen's action of drinking tea froze, "Okay."

"Oh yes, I learned paper-cutting from Aunt Sun, and I can teach you paper-cutting then."

Zhao Chengyuan smiled and continued, "Okay."

Emperor Qingming and the Queen Mother came, but the Empress was still absent.

Emperor Qingming looked at Zhao Chengyuan, "It's rare for the seventh brother to come, you have been hiding in the mansion for a few years ago."

Zhao Chengyuan smiled and said, "In the first year of the bride's entry, she should be let follow the excitement."

Emperor Qingming glanced at Han Youning lightly, "It's really different to become a family, and there is one more thing to worry about."

Zhao Chengyuan smiled, "Brother Huang is right."

Han Youning's heart sank, she didn't know if Emperor Qingming's words meant anything, but she suddenly found that she had become Zhao Chengyuan's weakness.

I don't know if his existence will drag him down.

Emperor Qingming did not talk to Zhao Chengyuan again, and said some cookie-cutter opening remarks, and the palace banquet began.

One after another exquisite and gorgeous imperial meals were put up, flashy and unreal, not only not as good as the meals of the Jin Palace, but even as good as the porridge and side dishes of ordinary people's homes, which were very boring.

Coupled with what the Queen Mother and Emperor Qingming said, everyone's flattering toasts over and over again are even more boring.

If it weren't for Zhao Chengyuan to pick up vegetables for her, she probably wouldn't want to eat a bite.

When the wine was drunk, everyone began to move around at will, toasting each other.

Those who came to toast wanted to toast husband and wife, Han Youning drank a lot, even if she only took a sip, she had finished drinking a glass unconsciously, and her face was already red.

Wang Caidan was still smiling, not showing anything wrong, and shouting "Aunt Huang" quite smoothly.

Han Youning smiled and talked to her, hoping that she could stop here and be the best version of herself. qs

Zhao Chen came over to toast, "Uncle Huang, Aunt Huang, Happy New Year."

Zhao Chengyuan sat there without even raising his eyelids, "The princess has already drunk too much, so there is no need for this wine."

Zhao Chen's gaze swept over Han Youning's face, he knew how much she was drinking, and two glasses would be drunk.

He said, "That's it."

He drank the wine from his glass, retreated to his seat, and poured himself a drink from the jug.

Hu Mingzhu behind him came over to toast, Zhao Chen looked indifferent, as if he didn't hear what she said, and only drank the wine by himself.

Zhao Chengyuan got up, "Queen Mother, Imperial Brother, the princess is not strong enough to drink, and the sons and daughters retreat first."

Emperor Qingming was not reluctant, "In that case, let's go back."

Everyone stood up and gave them their hands.

After leaving the palace and getting into the carriage, Han Youning breathed a sigh of relief, "It's really hard."

Zhao Chengyuan smiled, "Only once this year, you don't have to embarrass yourself in the future."

now."

Han Youning nodded, "Well, find a reason to push it then!"

Zhao Chengyuan touched her head and didn't speak.

At this time, it is already the second watch, the sound of firecrackers, the lights of thousands of homes are bright, and the stars in the sky are connected, a lively and prosperous.

The Jin Palace's Mansion stands quietly under the heavens and the earth, like a mountain overturning.

After returning home, the husband and wife guarded the fire, roasted peanuts, cut paper, told stories, and kept the New Year.

Han Youning snuggled up to Zhao Chengyuan's side, feeling the quiet years. She didn't know when she fell asleep, and when she woke up, it was already a new year.

Every day, they are all relatives and officials who come to pay New Year's greetings.

When I was a child, I looked forward to the New Year, I could go around to visit the New Year, play with my friends, and stay until I became a family, and the New Year was really the most tiring time.

And Zhao Chengyuan, the morning exercise was only stopped for one day, and then he still practiced every morning, except for receiving guests every day, most of his time was spent in the outer study, which seemed to be very busy.

He would come back to be with her before she went to bed. But Ling'er said that often after she fell asleep, Zhao Chengyuan left again and returned in the middle of the night.

On the fifth day of the first lunar month, the first morning of the new year.

Dali Temple acted vigorously and resolutely, and collected many criminal evidence of General Cen, and the human and material evidence was complete.

Emperor Qingming made a decree when the court, General Cen was beheaded all over the house, and the three princes were sent to prison pending trial.

There was an uproar.

General Cen was beheaded and everyone expected that a military general going to prison is usually a heinous crime, but why were the three princes implicated? He was a teenager a few years ago!

And it's not grounded, it's not cut, it's imprisoned! Since ancient times, there have been a few people who have been able to get out of the edict well!

After the dispersal of the dynasty, Zhao Chen took the lead out of the main hall.

Zhenguo Gong Wang Can walked beside him, "Your Highness, will things go too well?"

Zhao Chen's eyes were slightly gloomy, it was too smooth.

Zhao Yin is the prince valued by his father, and he is a pawn to balance the prince's faction, even if he is suspected of fornicating with the palace concubine, it is really surprising that he may be so decisive to put him in prison.

Wang Can said in a low voice, "There is something that can't be related."

Zhao Chen said, "Uncle, please speak."

Wang Can looked left and right and lowered his voice, "Last night, King Jin entered the palace to play chess with the emperor, and the minister waited outside for an hour before he was summoned in."

Zhao Chen paused.

"Uncle Seven Emperors?"

He was originally worried that the Seventh Emperor Uncle would come to the rescue of Zhao Yin, after all, Zhao Yin is sparse and hearty on weekdays, and the Seventh Emperor Uncle seems to approve of him, and Concubine De has shown favor many times openly and secretly.

Wang Can said, "The ministers are not sure, but if the King of Jin makes a move, the three princes will definitely be in a catastrophe."

Zhao Chen was silent.

Wang Can said again, "In the future, no one can stop His Highness, so you should gather talents and consolidate your position. Not to mention the old minister, students like Liao Yuansi will become great in the future, and they can be extremely popular. Now that he has been erased, he will not be able to participate in this year's Spring Festival......

Zhao Chen said lightly, "Such people who are not strong in their selfish desires are not of great use. Uncle has a rest."

"He is now a young man, and it is inevitable that he will be sad to pass the beauty pass. Danyang ......" Wang Can sighed, "Danyang has a deep relationship with you, and I can't bear to see you sad, and I want to vent for you."

Zhao Chen's eyes were cold, "Where does the loneliness come from, my uncle and Danyang will talk to each other, so that they can do it themselves."

With that, he quickened his pace and left Wang Can behind.
