This year was the happiest year for Gao Yiming, the affairs of the Qing Dynasty were successfully resolved, two new warships were launched, there were already five in service, the maximum displacement has reached 1,500 tons, the domestic construction has been steadily advanced, international trade is quite profitable, and everything is carried out in an orderly manner.

Except for some small disasters in a few places, the overall wind and rain are smooth, and the country and the people are safe.

"This year, the imperial court also has a good year, and all officials will be paid an additional two months, as a bonus, except for the chief officials of the yamen, the annual leave of others will be put after New Year's Day." Gao Yiming announced at the last meeting of the year.

The whole country rejoices -

"It's another holiday, let's relax, do you have any good ideas for the two wives?" Gao Yiming asked while sandwiching a hot pot for Zhou Hou and Yuan Guifei.

"I won't go back for the New Year this year, I'll accompany my brother here, just go back and see it on the 30th." Yuan Guifei grinned.

"It's said it's a holiday, but you can't leave Nanjing for too long, otherwise we can go to Mount Emei together, and I heard that the Bodhisattva there can be realized."

"Feng'er, you're here again, we have to work hard to give birth to a child."

"Ahh It's all going on all night, how can I work hard? Yuan Guifei was also distressed.

"I heard that Lu Juan went to Wang Chengen to find her brother, why don't we call her into the palace." Zhou Hou flashed with big eyes.

"Feng'er, what bad idea do you have?"

"How dare the concubine." said that he didn't dare, but his thoughts didn't know where to fly, for Gao Yiming's concubine, Zhou Hou and Yuan Guifei had reached an agreement a long time ago, but Gao Yiming disagreed, and finally ran into a Lu Juan who Gao Yiming didn't hate, how could the two of them try again.

Zhou Hou and Yuan Guifei said they would do it, after thirty and the first day of the new year, on the second day of the new year, the will to take Lu Juan to the palace to play for a few days went down to the Lu Mansion, Lu Kui only then knew the identity of Gao Yiming, and was surprised and delighted, at this time Wei Dayong was sentenced to prison because of corruption, the Wei family was in turmoil, at the insistence of Lu Juan and Mrs. Lu, Lu Kui dissolved the marriage contract between Lu Juan and Wei Shuhao.

"Didn't you already know that?" Lu Kui asked Lu Juan.

"No, it was only when Wei Shuhao made trouble in Shuntian Qianzhuang that he only found out."

"My father also understands your heart, and now it seems that I can't control your affairs, so you can make up your own mind."

"Thank you, father."

"You kid, thank you, it's good if you're happy, who doesn't want their children to be good, don't be stupid, the people in the palace are still waiting, you go." Mrs. Lu scolded with a smile, since the marriage contract with the Wei family was dissolved, her daughter was obviously much more cheerful than before.

"That daughter can't accompany you for the New Year."

"The year has passed, but you have to make your own decisions about everything here, the palace is no better than at home, you have to be careful everywhere."

"Yes! Mother, the child remembered. ”

"If this was a few years earlier, I would definitely not agree with my daughter entering the palace, but in the past two years, the empire has turned into a safe place, and the emperor is much more enlightened than before, and it is not impossible to get married." Lu Kui watched his daughter go away, and he was relieved in his heart.

"What are you stinky and beautiful there, you haven't skimmed the eight characters yet, hurry up and prepare the meal, my mother's family will be here soon."

"Good, good—"

"Miss, what did you say Mr. Gao told you to go to the palace?"

"I must want to meet Miss."

"Do you think Mr. Gao will confess to Miss?"

"What is a confession, it is called Lin Xing, it is said in the play."

"You two dead girls are really not ashamed, you can say anything."

"Hee-hee! Miss, what are you blushing about... The three of them came to the palace noisily.

"This is the palace, you two will behave in a moment."

"Got it, miss, you see that Mr. Han is here."

From the gap in the curtains lifted by Yue'er, Lu Juan also saw Han Zanzhou standing on the side of the road.

"Did Miss Lu get it?" Han Zanzhou asked.

"Back to the boss, people are in the car."

"Very good! Miss Lu! ”

Hearing Han Zanzhou's voice, Lu Juan put on a white fur cloak and walked out of the wide carriageway: "Manager Han, I haven't seen you for many days, it's good lately-"

"Thank you Miss Lu, happy New Year!"

"Manager Han, it's so hard for you to lie to us, giggles-" Qiu'er said.

"Autumn and Yue'er also have a good New Year. It's cold outside, it's not a place to talk, it's inconvenient to drive in the palace, please Miss Lu change to a warm sedan chair with me, and the queen and the concubine will wait for a long time. ”

Lu Juan nodded and got into the warm sedan chair.

After walking for a long time in a sedan chair, he stopped in a large hall, Han Zanzhou asked Lu Juan to get off the sedan chair and said: "This is the queen's bedroom, and the concubine is also there, please——"

"Gao Gongzi - oh, is the emperor also there?"

"The emperor is still receiving foreign envoys in the court, and it is estimated that it will be in the afternoon when he comes back, but Miss Lu is here today, and the emperor knows about it, and wants to go back and forth to the court as soon as possible." This is a comforting thing to hear.

Lu Juan got off the sedan chair, and there were already palace people who entered to make a statement, Zhou Hou and Yuan Guifei personally greeted her, and just arrived at the door to see the radiant Lu Juan, like a cold plum in the snow, the ice is clear and jade, beautiful and incomprehensible, the more the two of them look at it, the more satisfied they are.

Before coming closer, Lu Juan immediately paid a big salute to Zhou Hou and Yuan Guifei, and Zhou Hou asked Yuan Guifei to pick up Lu Juan, so that she didn't have to be polite.
