It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, a month after Zhao Xuanyi came back, it was already early winter, all the vegetables had been picked, the dehydrated ones that could be dehydrated, the ones that could be dried up, there were no fresh vegetables, the restaurant would naturally be closed, if you cook the dishes of other restaurants, it would be meaningless! The most important thing is that Zhao Xuanyi will not either! He'll be able to do these few dishes from the Western Regions!

It is impossible to see snow in Hangzhou, even in winter, every day the cold wind is biting, Zhao Xuanyi wants to sleep with the stove in his arms whether it is day or night, but Du Xinyu is unwilling, the night time is hers!

And the changes in the capital are also very rapid, Liang Yun was personally named General Sanpin, given the name General Fude, 20,000 Qilin Wei has been handed over to him to lead, this result seems to be unchangeable, the most important thing is that Liang Yun has the Yin virtue of his ancestors, and he is never nervous in his hands!

With such a strong backing, the military salary is no longer a problem, and all kinds of equipment have also been repaired and improved, but it is only limited to the standard equipment of each of their Qilin Guards, the Tianyi Bow and the Meridian Mandarin Duck Yue, as for other grenades and rain smoke bombs, etc., even if they can't get it.

As the New Year approaches, the whole country has been busy, every household is preparing New Year's goods, red lanterns are hung high, and auspicious Spring Festival couplets and blessing words can be seen everywhere!

And the royal family is naturally the most glorious, the palace banquet, all the royal family's brocade clothes, gold and silver jewelry, etc., although the treasury is no longer optimistic, but the royal family's luxury and magnificence are inviolable, and all the items are still very rich!

Zhu Yuejun looked at the list fold in his hand, and couldn't help rubbing his forehead, "Dragon and phoenix jade lamp?" I remember that it wasn't prepared for Concubine Yongning last year? ”

"I heard that it was accidentally broken by the palace maid, so I want to add another pair while the New Year is auspicious!" Nanzhu said.

"Ridiculous, I think she's uncomfortable if she doesn't spend money! What is the situation now? The royal brother even tolerated her being so wanton! ”

"That?"

Zhu Yuejun didn't speak, he directly took the brush, drew a cross on the fold, and then threw it aside, his face full of anger! After Nanzhu saw it, she didn't dare to speak, the eldest princess hadn't seen Zhao Xuanyi for three months, her mood was getting worse day by day, Nanzhu and the others were so scared that they didn't dare to speak!

Just when Zhu Yuejun was angry alone, Xilan walked in from outside, holding a delicate box in her hand, and knelt down after coming to the hall, "Eldest Princess Qiyu, Liang Yun Gongzi asked people to send New Year's gifts!" ”

After Zhu Yuejun heard this, her brows tightened, "Go back, just say I don't have time to collect these things!" ”

"...... this?" Xilan looked embarrassed and looked at Nanzhu on the side!

Nanzhu walked over and glared at Xilan, it must be this girl who received benefits again, Nanzhu opened the box and saw that it was a golden unicorn with exquisite workmanship, and the two eyes of this unicorn were inlaid with rubies, and at a glance, I knew that it was worth a lot! After Nanzhu saw it, his eyes became very complicated.

"Eldest princess?" Nanzhu walked to Zhu Yuejun's side with the box, Zhu Yuejun turned his head to see that it was such a valuable item inside, thought for a few seconds, showed a smile, and gave Nanzhu a look!

Nanzhu immediately understood, turned around and handed the box to Xilan, "Take off the two gemstone eyes of this unicorn, melt the gold into gold bars, and use them for this year's royal New Year expenses!" ”

"Melted?" Xilan asked in surprise.

"Didn't you hear? Just go! ”

"Yes!" Xilan held the heavy golden unicorn, and said in her heart, what does this eldest princess mean? It's a pity!

What everyone didn't know was that this year's New Year was not as calm as in previous years, and in the Guo Uncle's Mansion, Ye Yuanzhi looked at a eunuch beside him, "Five days later, it's Chinese New Year's Eve!" Be sure to bring Concubine Yongning and the Five Princes out! If you do a good job, I will reward you with 100 taels of silver and 30 houses, if you are not good, I will let you have no life to pay! ”

After hearing this, the eunuch standing on the side hurriedly nodded, "Uncle Guo, rest assured, the slave will definitely handle this matter well, and when the time comes, I just ask Uncle Guo to bring the slave and help the slave's younger brother, and the slave will be grateful!" ”

"Hahaha! These are all small things, as long as you do this well, I will definitely ensure your glory and wealth! Ye Yuanzhi laughed loudly, the promise given to the eunuch was like a dried fruit to eat later, very refreshing and crisp!

Five days later, on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, the entire Daming Dynasty every household burst into laughter, everyone on the street kept greeting the New Year and saying auspicious words, children kept running on the street, the sound of firecrackers was endless, and everyone showed the happiest smile!

Everyone in the Narcissus House is busy, Zhao Xuanyi put on a new dress, and in order to welcome the New Year, Zhao Xuanyi ordered that all the people in the house make a new dress for each person, and the owner pays for it, so all the people in the Narcissus House today are wearing brand new clothes, and everyone's face is full of bright smiles!

Zhao Xuanyi walked out of the room, followed by Li Hanyan, while Zi Kite and Du Xinyu followed behind, after coming to the hall, all the subordinates stood in the hall, Shen Wei and Tang Tianli and others also stood next to the main table, Zhao Xuanyi came to the table with a smile!

Looking at more than 100 people in the house, Zhao Xuanyi smiled slightly, "Everyone, today is the second New Year we have spent together, I think everyone knows that I am not very reliable, so everyone doesn't have to be too restrained, today is just two words, happy!" ”

"The wine and fat are ready, and the pai gow sieve on the side has also been prepared, let's drink first, after eating and drinking, play him for three days, no one is allowed to repay the account, last year lost to me, this year to give you a chance, let you return to the capital, provided that you have this ability!"

After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, everyone laughed, and Zhao Xuanyi raised his wine glass, "Come, let's celebrate the New Year together!" ”

"Happy New Year!" Everyone shouted!

The Chinese New Year's Eve dinner officially began, everyone pushed the cup and changed the cup, paddled the fist, laughed and laughed, and made a happy meal, Zhao Xuanyi gave Du Xinyu a shrimp, and asked in a low voice, "Xinyu, you are already fifteen years old, or let's get married this year?" ”

When Du Xinyu heard this, he smiled slightly, "It's done!" That...... Can I ask for some dowry? ”

"Naturally, this is human nature, you say, how much do you want?"

Du Xinyu thought carefully, "The gold is paved with ten thousand taels, the white jade pillar welcomes guests, the silver basin, the butterfly door of agate, and ......?" ”

"Hey, that Brother Shen, it's been another New Year, do you and your sister-in-law plan to have children?" Zhao Xuanyi hurriedly asked,

"Hey, I'm not done yet!" Du Xinyu said very dissatisfied.

"There's no hurry! Let's talk about it next year! Zhao Xuanyi hurriedly grabbed Brother Shen to cover up his embarrassment with Du Xinyu!

Du Xinyu pursed her lips, "There is no sincerity at all!" ”

When Purple Kite heard this, she smiled, "What more promise do you want?" A mouth is no less than a dowry of 100,000 taels of silver, how much did my young lady use to get married? ”

"Childe told me to say it!" Du Xinyu said in his heart, why did you point the words at me?

Zhao Xuanyi laughed when he heard it, the New Year must look like a New Year, otherwise how can it be called the New Year? Zhao Xuanyi also gave Shen Wei, Tang Tianli and Yu Wenzhu some red envelopes, and everyone was very happy!

However, in the capital, the emperor rushed to the main hall with the empress to spend this Chinese New Year's Eve night with everyone, and Zhu Yuejun came to the main hall, seeing that everyone was busy and everything was done in an orderly manner, so he was relieved.

The royal banquet is no more complicated than ordinary people, everything has to be very complicated, even how many dishes have to be cooked, otherwise there will be big problems!

All the people of the royal family are rushing to the main hall in an orderly manner, and everyone wants to choose a good place, so that they can be closer to the emperor, and maybe they can receive special care!

And the other princes and concubines were busy rushing to the main hall to spend this Chinese New Year's Eve with the emperor, and Ye Xiaofei also washed and dressed up carefully, and took Zhu Xinhao to the main hall with him, accompanied by the palace maids and eunuchs!

However, when Ye Xiaofei and Zhu Xinhao had just walked out of the main hall and came over to a eunuch, the eunuch saw Ye Xiaofei and smiled slightly, "The slave has asked Concubine Yongning for peace!" ”

Ye Xiaofei smiled, "It turned out to be Gonggong Li, are you here to pick me up?" ”

"Yes, it was the emperor who asked the servants to come to greet Concubine Yongning in person, saying that there are new gifts for the New Year, let me take you to have a look, then Concubine Yongning, let's go first, right?" The eunuch said with a smile.

"Done! My son, you go with the queen mother to see what New Year's gift your father has prepared for me? Ye Xiaofei said with a smile.

"Yes, how happy the mother concubine is today, let's come!" After Zhu Xinhao finished speaking, he accompanied Ye Xiaofei and followed the eunuch into the distance!

However, the three of them came to a side hall, and just after entering, the eunuch hurriedly closed the door, and then took out two sets of clothes from behind the tree on the side, one was the eunuch's clothes, and the other was the palace maid's clothes, and the eunuch's face was full of anxiety.

"Concubine Yongning, the fifth prince, now that the time is pressing, I can't take care of anything else, quickly change it, and the slave will take you out of the palace!" The eunuch said quickly.

"What? Leaving the palace? Zhu Xinhao asked.

Ye Xiaofei glared at her son, "Change it immediately, don't ask the reason, let's talk about it after you go out!" Fast! ”

In this way, stepping on the fireworks in the sky and looking at the lights of the imperial city, Ye Xiaofei and Zhu Xinhao were wearing the clothes of a eunuch and the other was wearing the clothes of a palace maid, and the mother and daughter quietly left the palace when everyone was nervous and busy!

On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, the entire palace is a mess, and everyone else is busy with their own affairs, how can they be in the mood to care about other people's affairs?

In this way, Ye Xiaofei and her son Zhu Xinhao got into a very ordinary carriage, and Zhu Xinhao only began to ask at this time, "Mother, are we going to get it?" ”

"Son, do you know what your mother has done now, but it is a very important thing, if you succeed this time, you will be the Ninth Five-Year Honor, glory and wealth in the future, and it will be passed down through the ages!" The more Ye Xiaofei spoke, the more excited she became, it seemed that things had not started yet, and they had already succeeded!

Zhu Xinhao didn't understand it very well, but what else could such a mom bao man say? I had to follow my mother, watching the brilliant fireworks floating in the sky, and I seemed to vaguely see that I had discovered something wrong, but he had no choice but to go with the flow!

In less than half an hour, the carriage quickly ran out of the capital. Zhao Chunhua suddenly felt that he was in danger for a while, even looking at this deserted street, it would make Zhu Chufeng feel very uneasy, his heart was chilling every time, and his heart was beating very badly!

Just as Zhu Xinhao was about to speak, he saw the carriage stop suddenly, Ye Xiaofei slowly opened his eyes and looked at the dark road, "Son, get off!" ”

Zhu Xinhao saw that outside, there seemed to be a figure shaking, and his scalp was numb with fright, "Mother, it seems to be a little dangerous here!" ”

"Don't be afraid, get out of the car!" Ye Xiaofei's tone was filled with undoubted reproach, and after Zhu Xinhao heard his mother's tone, he could only get out of the carriage hard!

As soon as he got out of the car, he saw nearly 100 soldiers in armor standing in front of him, Zhu Xinhao was so frightened that he didn't dare to move, and he didn't know what the situation was? Could it be that you have encountered a robbery? Don't you take a break for the New Year?

Ye Xiaofei got out of the carriage and saw a man walking over quickly, "See Concubine Yongning!" ”

Ye Xiaofei snorted lightly with her nose, "What about the big brother?" ”

"Uncle Guo is in the military camp now, so he sent us to escort Concubine Yongning and the Fifth Prince to a safe place, please follow me!" After the man finished speaking, he sent Ye Xiaofei and Zhu Xinhao to another carriage, only to see that this carriage was completely different from what he had just done.
