Xia Rongxin smiled mysteriously, looked at Qi Bingyu who looked curious, and said softly: "I don't want to tell the emperor now. You can see it at the New Year's Eve family dinner in three days."

As she said that, Xia Rongxin's face showed the joy that only a little girl can have. This New Year's Eve adventure is unique and will definitely surprise the guests at home and abroad. She is full of confidence in this New Year's Eve adventure, and she can always think that Qi Bingyu will know it by then.

, will definitely praise her.

Xia Rongxin also put a lot of effort into the recipes for the New Year's Eve family dinner and the fireworks feast after the dinner. She stayed up for several nights in order to study these.

Xia Rongxin attaches great importance to this New Year's Eve family banquet, not only because this time she wants to show the strong strength of our dynasty in front of outside envoys, but also because she wants to show her unique and irreplaceable side in front of Qi Bingyu. If this matter is left to Lu Hui

If you do it with the spirit, you will definitely not get such good results.

Xia Rongxin had a sense of crisis that she hadn't experienced in a long time, and it had been surrounding her from the moment Lu Huiling arrived. She had been passive, decadent and addicted, and had given Lu Huiling countless opportunities to climb up. Now Lu Huiling has

Once in front of her, she must not continue to be depressed.

Xia Rongxin has been secretly competing with Lu Huiling in private, and neither one is willing to lose to the other. This New Year's Eve family dinner is the perfect opportunity for Xia Rongxin to prove herself.

Rather than saying that Xia Rongxin is competing with Lu Huiling, it is better to say that Xia Rongxin is competing with Lu Fushuang, the young and beautiful Lu Fushuang, the simple and kind-hearted Lu Fushuang. Lu Huiling does not have Xia Rongxin's vicious scheming and methods, and her temper is not as good as Xia Rongxin's.

Be self-possessed and dignified at this age.

In contrast, Xia Rongxin is not as smart and intelligent as Lu Huiling, and she is not as young and beautiful as she is. They hate each other, but they encourage each other to do their best step by step.

"When did you become so coquettish?" Qi Bingyu was in a very good mood today. When he saw Xia Rongxin speaking so delicately, he raised his hand and scratched her nose, smiling fondly.

Nowadays, Xia Rongxin is obviously very young, but she still seems to have unintentionally imitated Lu Huiling to act coquettishly, imitating Lu Huiling to act cute. Fortunately, Xia Rongxin has good looks. In addition to her unique dignified temperament, she also deliberately dresses up.

It's not very inconsistent either.

As the emperor, Qi Bingyu is the master of the imperial city and the world, but Xia Rongxin did not tell him and deliberately wanted to give him a pass, so he stopped asking. In fact, everyone knew that as long as the emperor said that he wanted to see the book of the Ministry of Internal Affairs,

Eunuch He could take it back immediately and show it to him. If Qi Bingyu hadn't cooperated with Xia Rongxin, she wouldn't have been able to hide it from him.

"I think I am used to being well-behaved, but the emperor is not used to my coquettish behavior. Has the emperor forgotten that I am also a girl?" Xia Rongxin blushed in embarrassment, lowered her head and looked away, obviously because of this

She was shy, but she still said coquettishly.

Today they stood together in front of the Imperial City, looking over the entire Shangjing City, and saw countless merchants walking to Shangjing with goods, and envoys from surrounding countries bringing gifts to congratulate the Chinese New Year.

This is a big event. What’s more important is that this year Great Liang broke through the defense line of the Celestial Empire for the first time, and also occupied the most heavily defended state capital, making the Celestial Empire feel the crisis for the first time. However, fortunately, Liang Fengmian and Qi Jingqin solved the crisis for the Celestial Empire.

Just after New Year's Eve, our army will definitely let the enemy forces in Daliang get out of the territory of the Celestial Empire.

This New Year's Eve feast and the whole country's carnival should be regarded as celebrating their triumphant return to the court in advance.

Then, even though the outcome was already clear, Da Liang still refused to withdraw its troops. Although they retreated steadily and suffered repeated defeats, they had no intention of giving up. The most taboo thing in marching and fighting is an opponent who is not afraid of death.

But Liang Fengmian and Qi Jingqin were by no means idle people. After hearing the news of victory, they came to Beijing repeatedly. If Qi Bingyu were ten years younger, he would have wished to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy together.

That is, seeing Qi Bingyu so happy, Xia Rongxin dared to speak like this.

Hearing what Xia Rongxin said, Qi Bingyu laughed loudly while leaning on the railing, while Xia Rongxin also blushed with embarrassment and turned her face away from Qi Bingyu.

"Why is the emperor smiling so happily?"

Suddenly a voice came from behind them. Qi Bingyu and Xia Rongxin turned their heads when they heard the sound, only to realize that the person who came was none other than Lu Huiling.

When Xia Rongxin saw Lu Huiling, the charming smile on her face fleetingly disappeared: Lu Huiling can be found anywhere, but it just so happens that the emperor is happy today, and she wants to come and interfere.

Qi Bingyu saw Lu Huiling, smiled and stretched out his hand to her, saying, "Concubine Ming is here."

Lu Huiling put her slender hand on Qi Bingyu's hand, and walked to Qi Bingyu. In front of Xia Rongxin, she deliberately got closer to Qi Bingyu, just to make Xia Rongxin angry and jealous. The only fun now is to

Just looking at Xia Rongxin being so angry but unable to do anything about it.

Xia Rongxin looked at Lu Huiling with a sullen face. Of course, Lu Huiling would not let her cause trouble. As soon as he stood next to Qi Bingyu, he withdrew his hand, held the Wanfu gift and put it on his waist, then slowly bowed to Xia Rongxin and saluted: "

I, my concubine, go to see the Emperor and pay homage to Concubine Mei."

Qi Bingyu smiled and took Lu Huiling's hand and said: "There are only three of us at this time, how can we come up with so many rules?"

After hearing this, Xia Rongxin didn't want Qi Bingyu to mistake her for being petty, so she managed to put on a smile: "Concubine Ming is enjoying herself today, and she actually joined us on stage to join in the fun."

"I was originally looking for the emperor. I heard from the servants of the Qinzheng Palace that the emperor was coming to the stage, so I thought I would come to accompany the emperor. Who would have thought that Concubine Mei was actually here, but I looked too much.

I don’t see it, I’m disturbing the emperor and the noble concubine.” Lu Huiling covered her mouth and smiled.

Xia Rongxin didn't want to hear her hypocritical apology: She came here on purpose, but she still insisted on saying "how could I have imagined it"? She does have good eyesight, but Sima Zhao's heart is known to everyone. Who doesn't know you, Lu Hui?

The spirit is intentional.

Xia Rongxin ignored Lu Huiling and walked to the railing. She frowned slightly and looked at the boundless territory. It was really pleasant to climb up and look into the distance.

"Hey~ Why bother? Since you are here, come and watch the thousands of miles of mountains and rivers with me." Qi Bingyu laughed loudly.

Lu Huiling also smiled, glanced at Xia Rongxin who was standing aside and looking into the distance, and smiled as if unintentionally: "Why was the emperor laughing so happily just now? I heard it from below, can you tell me?

Is my concubine also happy?"

Qi Bingyu glanced at Xia Rongxin and laughed again. At this time, Qi Bingyu's laughter reached Xia Rongxin's ears, which sounded like a mockery. Xia Rongxin listened to his laughter and refused to turn around and echo.

"I was just guessing what kind of activities Concubine Mei would prepare for the New Year's Eve family banquet, but Concubine Mei refused to tell me. I'm really curious." After Qi Bingyu finished laughing, he told Lu Huiling about the conversation he had just had with Xia Rongxin.

.

Word by word passed into Xia Rongxin's ears, making her feel dissatisfied and ashamed. After all, at such an old age, she still imitated the coquettishness and cuteness of young girls in an attempt to win the favor of the emperor. This seemed really ridiculous.

Although Xia Rongxin turned her head, she could still see that her ears were red. When Qi Bingyu saw it, he stopped laughing, stepped forward to hold Xia Rongxin's shoulders, and said softly: "I think the imperial concubine is smart, and the ideas she comes up with are naturally very good."

OK."

Qi Bingyu knew that Xia Rongxin was unhappy, but as an emperor, he took the initiative to talk to him, which was enough to get him down.

Xia Rongxin naturally knew Qi Bingyu's temper, so she followed his words: "I am too ignorant to be praised by the emperor so highly."

After saying this, Qi Bingyu laughed again, and Xia Rongxin also covered her mouth and smiled.

Lu Huiling looked at Xia Rongxin's smile, but she had a bad taste in her heart. She smiled at Qi Bingyu and said, "Does the emperor want to know what will happen at the New Year's Eve family banquet so much? You may as well ask me, although I

I didn’t personally participate in it, but I heard about it when I had nothing to do.”

Xia Rongxin originally wanted to show off in front of the emperor, but Lu Huiling wanted to tell the emperor in front of her. If she said it, wouldn't all the hard work be in vain? As a result, she looked at Lu Huiling more

Added a bit of disgust.

"Oh?" Qi Bingyu became interested for a moment, "Let's talk and listen."

"Your Majesty!" Seeing that Lu Huiling was about to blurt out, Xia Rongxin quickly grabbed the Emperor's arm and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, this is the surprise I have prepared for you. If I had known about it in advance, wouldn't it have been in vain for my concubine's hard work?

.”

When she said this, even if Lu Huiling dared to continue speaking, Qi Bingyu would not listen anymore.

"Since...since it's Concubine Mei's surprise for me, I allow you to sell it out for a while, but don't let me down when the time comes." Qi Bingyu smiled and patted Xia Rongxin's hand gently.

Lu Huiling smiled and rolled her eyes, her face full of innocence, making it difficult for people to see what she was thinking in her heart.

"This is natural. I will definitely host this feast well to satisfy the emperor and the people of the world." Xia Rongxin nodded solemnly and said.

When Lu Huiling saw the two of them singing in harmony, she no longer came forward to disturb him. She stood alone beside Qi Bingyu, looking at the majestic mountains and rivers through his posture, and couldn't help but feel funny in her heart.

Some people want to do their best to host the New Year's Eve family dinner, but some people only want to ruin it.

No one knew what Lu Huiling was thinking at this time. Perhaps like everyone else, she was looking forward to the New Year's Eve family dinner in three days. This was definitely different from all the usual family banquets.

The three days passed by in the blink of an eye like a white horse passing by.

Today, the palace needs to welcome all the envoys and ladies into the palace to celebrate the festival together, so the palace doors will be opened early.
