Rushi supported Murong Xi and left the front hall, and the palace maid led the way to the side hall. The side hall had been tidied up early in the morning, and there was a heater in the inner room, so she didn't feel cold after entering the room. Ruhua followed the palace maid.
He went to the small kitchen and prepared fruit tea for Murong Xi. Murong Xi rested on the couch while Rushi sat aside and watched.
This is the first time that Feng Mingye stays with her father. If she does not enter the palace, Feng Mingye will definitely stay in the Hades Palace to accompany her. She knows that Feng Mingye loves her and thinks about herself in everything.
This time, she should do something for Feng Mingye. Murong Xi knew that his father must be looking forward to Feng Mingye entering the palace, so how could he disappoint his father?
How could Murong Zi not know about Emperor Nanzhao's long love? I heard that he missed the Queen very much. Every year on the Queen's birthday, he would stay up all night in the Queen's palace. However, Murong Xi did not expect that his father would even stay up late on New Year's Eve.
When he was young, he also stayed in the queen mother's palace all night.
Murong Xi fell into a deep sleep, and when he woke up, it was already dusk.
Rushi saw that Murong Xi had woken up, so she helped Murong Xi up and said to her: "Miss, you finally woke up. You ate very little during lunch. Are you already hungry?"
"I'm indeed a little hungry. Won't everyone have to go to Jingyang Palace for dinner soon? I think it's better to endure it for now." Murong Xi said.
"I heard that dinner tonight has been postponed. It's about half an hour before it's time to eat. Ruhua is worried that you will be hungry after you wake up. I just made some fruit tea and pastries in the small kitchen. Do you want it, Miss?
Eat some first." Ru Shi asked.
"That's fine." Murong Xi said.
Ruhua brought in fruit tea and cakes. As soon as Murong Xi took a bite, he heard Feng Mingye's voice: "Xier, are you feeling better?"
"I just slept for a while and I feel like my headache is gone. I'm a little hungry now and I'm eating pastries. Why are you here? Don't you need to accompany my father?" Murong Xi said.
"Tian Mo and Tian Jue passed by the Imperial Study Room, so I found a reason to come over first." Feng Mingye said.
"Don't worry, it doesn't matter to me." Murong Xi said.
"Since Tianmo and the others are here, why don't we go back home?" Feng Mingye said.
"Aye, today is the first time that you have stayed with your father to stay up until dawn. If you leave like this, your father will be sad. I heard that every year on this day, my father will stay alone in the palace of his mother until dawn. At least.
Tonight, you should accompany your mother and father together." Murong Xi advised.
"So, you came here because of me, right?" Feng Mingye said.
"Today is New Year's Eve, and the two children were also taken away by the master. It's really deserted for the two of us in the palace. Every family is reunited on New Year's Eve, so there is no reason for the two of us to stay at home." Murong Xi said with a smile.
.
Feng Mingye naturally knew that Murong Xi was thinking about herself, otherwise she wouldn't be like this. Feng Mingye was very moved, held Murong Xi in her arms, and said to her: "Xier, I know you are doing this all for me.
"
"Okay, it's almost time. I've eaten the pastries and it's time to go out with you." Murong Xi said.
After Murong Xi finished speaking, she stuffed a piece of pastry into her mouth. Feng Mingye touched the fruit tea with her hands and it was a little cold. Rushi took the fruit tea and went to the small kitchen. After reheating it, she brought it back.
Murong Xi had recovered after drinking the fruit tea. Ru Shi helped Murong Xi tidy up her hair again, and Feng Mingye took Murong Xi's hand and entered the Jingyang Palace together.
"Your Majesty, His Highness Pluto and Princess Pluto are here." Eunuch Nian said.
"Please come in quickly." Emperor Nanzhao said.
When Feng Mingye and Murong Xi came in, the other princes and concubines had already sat down. Feng Mingye did not let go of his hand along the way, and it was not until he saluted Emperor Nanzhao that he offered his own hand.
"Father." Feng Mingye and Murong Xi said at the same time.
"Well, sit down." Emperor Nanzhao said happily.
Feng Mingye and Murong Xi sat aside, and Ye Tianmo and his wife nodded to Ye Tianmo and Murong Xi opposite.
This year's New Year's Eve is different from previous years, because Feng Mingye's return made Emperor Nanzhao particularly happy. Feng Mingye
After sitting down with Murong Xi, the family banquet had already begun. During the banquet, Emperor Nanzhao drank a lot of wine because he was happy, and because of Concubine Yun's persuasion, he changed to tea.
Because they still had to watch the New Year's Eve, after everyone had eaten the dumplings, Emperor Nanzhao asked everyone to go back to the palace.
Feng Mingye was a little worried about Emperor Nanzhao, so she asked Ye Tianmo to stay and help. Concubine Yun Guifei knew that her majesty would probably go to the queen's palace today, so she said cautiously: "Your majesty, where do you plan to go to stay up late?"
"I will go sit in the Queen's Palace first. Aye, please accompany me there," Emperor Nanzhao said.
Feng Mingye was worried about Murong Xi, and planned to send Murong Xi to the side hall to rest first, and then accompany Emperor Nanzhao there. When he was about to speak, Murong Xi stopped him.
"Father, yes." Feng Mingye looked at Murong Xi, as long as he agreed to Emperor Nanzhao.
When Concubine Yun saw this, she said, "Don't worry, Pluto, I will personally send Xi'er back to the side hall to rest."
"Thank you, noble concubine." Murong Xi said.
"Xier, are you feeling well?" Emperor Nanzhao asked.
"Yes, Father." Murong Xi said.
"If you can persist, follow Aye and accompany me there." Emperor Nanzhao said.
Murong Xi knew Emperor Nanzhao's intentions and agreed immediately. The two of them helped Emperor Nanzhao to the Queen's Huayang Palace.
Although no one lives in Huayang Palace, there are always people taking care of it. Because Emperor Nanzhao comes here every year on this day, the palace people have long been accustomed to it.
"Your Majesty, the heater inside is ready." the maid said.
"Okay, you go down." Emperor Nanzhao said.
The three of them entered the house together, while Eunuch Nian stood guard outside the door. The room was indeed very warm, and the memorial tablet and offerings of Feng Mingye's mother were also placed in the room.
Emperor Nanzhao first burned incense, and then said: "Shuang'er, Aye is finally back. This year, we will stay with you together. By the way, Aye is already married, and our daughter-in-law has given us a pair of twins.
Aye, come here, give your mother some incense, and talk to her."
Feng Mingye brought Murong Xi over, and the two of them offered incense to the queen. Feng Mingye said, "Mom, Xi'er and I are here to visit you again. Don't worry, we will take good care of your father."
"Mom, Aye has taken good care of me, and you are going to be a grandmother again. Although I don't know whether it is a boy or a girl yet, this one must be a troublemaker." Murong Xi said.
"If you are tired, please go back first. I want to sit here for a while." Emperor Nanzhao said.
"Father, do you mourn your mother here every year?" Feng Mingye asked.
"On weekdays, when I am tired, I will go to Huayang Palace to chat with your mother. Of course, these are the most leisurely days of the year. Every year today, I will accompany your mother until dawn." Emperor Nanzhao
said.
"It's enough for mother to know that you still remember her in your heart. You should also take care of yourself. You can't be alone till dawn in the future." Feng Mingye said.
"I don't do this often. Once or twice once in a while, it's not a big deal." Emperor Nanzhao said.
"That won't work either. It's good to have us here for the whole year. You'd better have a good rest." Feng Mingye said.
"Then I will rest here tonight. You can go back when you get tired later." Emperor Nanzhao said.
"Okay, then we won't go back. We will write it in the side hall of Huayang Palace tonight." Feng Mingye said.
Murong Xi nodded and said, "That's fine, it's getting late, and it's not convenient to go back at this time."
About half an hour later, Feng Mingye saw that Murong Xi was a little tired, so she took Murong Xi back to the side hall first. As soon as she walked to the door, Murong Xi said: "Aye, there are poems and paintings around me.
You don’t have to worry, I’m worried about your father.”
"I'd better send you there first and then go back and take a look." Feng Mingye said.
"No need, I can't walk just two steps? Are you still worried about Rushi and Ruhua?" Murong Xi said.
Feng Mingye was helpless and asked Rushi and Ruhua to take care of them.
Good lady, I just returned to Huayang Palace.
Feng Mingye entered the main hall and found Emperor Nanzhao crying while holding his mother's memorial tablet. Feng Mingye had never seen Emperor Nanzhao like this before. So he said, "Father, what are you doing?"
"It's all my fault, otherwise your mother wouldn't have died so early. If I hadn't been able to bring your mother to the city early for the sake of the throne, I'm afraid we would be living like idle clouds and wild cranes now.
"Emperor Nanzhao said.
"Father, my mother will not blame you. Even in the end, she never regretted it. My aunt once told me that my mother never regretted falling in love with you. She just felt a little regretful that staying with you was too short." Feng Ming
Ye persuaded.
"Is this what your aunt said?" Emperor Nanzhao raised his eyes and asked.
"Of course it's true, I don't need to lie to you." Feng Mingye said.
"Do you blame me? That child Tianmo is always innocent, and I can't bear it after all." Emperor Nanzhao said.
"Ye Tianmo is indeed innocent, and he has figured it out, so I don't blame him. Moreover, the great revenge has been avenged, and my mother should rest in peace even if she is still alive." Feng Mingye said.
Emperor Nanzhao had always wanted to pass the throne to Feng Mingye. Although he was very satisfied with Ye Tianmo's performance during these days, he finally felt that Feng Mingye was the most suitable.
Every time Emperor Nanzhao mentioned this matter to Feng Mingye before, Feng Mingye didn't agree. So Emperor Nanzhao took this opportunity to think of this matter again.
"Aye, you also know what I am thinking. Among my sons, I am the most satisfied with you. I want to pass the throne to you, are you willing to agree now?" Emperor Nanzhao asked.
"Father, you know that my son has no such ambitions, and you know very well that Tian Mo is the most suitable candidate. It's just that you give up on Tian Mo because you feel guilty. I also know that you want to train Tian Jue,
After all, Tian Jue is a smart and good boy, but he doesn't have this ambition. Why do you have to force it?" Feng Mingye said.
"You really don't mind?" Emperor Nanzhao asked.
"Of course I don't mind, my father can make up his own mind," Feng Mingye said.
"It was Tian Mo who gave up on his own. He told me personally that he would assist Tian Jue well." Emperor Nanzhao said.
"Father, it's too early to talk about this matter now. You can observe it slowly." Feng Mingye said.
"I understand." Emperor Nanzhao said.
"Father, please rest early. Mother doesn't want to see you working so hard." Feng Mingye said.
