Since Yu Lan took charge of Feng Yin, nothing has gone wrong so far. Everything in the palace has been arranged by her in an orderly and subtle manner, so that everyone feels that it is natural for Yu Lan to take charge of Feng Yin.
"Everyone has worked hard these past few days and cheered up. This New Year's Eve dinner must not go wrong."
"Yes, your concubine."
"By the way, there is one more thing." Yu Lan raised his hand, thought for a while, and said, "This year, the palace servants will receive two more months of monthly payment, which is considered a reward."
When they heard that there was a reward, the palace people felt very motivated, and their waists and legs no longer ached.
"Slave, thank you for your kindness."
Yu Lan just wants them to know that their efforts are always rewarded. As long as they do their job responsibly, she will not treat them badly.
The emperor has only one concubine, so the expenses of the harem are not large. The number of people in the harem has also been reduced by most. In this way, at the end of the year, a lot of money can be saved, which can be used in other places.
Thinking of this, Yu Lan felt very motivated.
"Okay, everyone is busy with their own business."
"Guihua, bring me the previous accounts."
"Yes, empress..."
…
New Year's Eve, New Year's Eve.
It’s Chinese New Year.
Red lanterns are hung in front of every house, and festive firecrackers can always be heard in the streets and alleys.
At this time, the palace was decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and the palace was full of joy. At the palace banquet, all civil and military officials and their families took their seats early, waiting for the emperor to arrive before the banquet could begin.
"The emperor's noble concubine has arrived——"
"Long live my emperor, long live my emperor, and my concubine, my concubine, live a thousand lives, a thousand lives."
After taking a look at everyone present, Zhao Chengji took Yu Lan's hand, walked to the main seat and sat down.
"Today is New Year's Eve, my dear friends, there is no need to be restrained, just have fun."
"Thank you to my emperor for his long life, and thank you to your empress for your thousand lives."
"Have a banquet..."
With a loud shout from the eunuch, the palace banquet officially began. At the same time, fireworks exploded from the sky above the palace, one by one, colorful, and lasted for a long time.
In the Xinqing Hall, the sound of silk and bamboo slowly sounded, and the dancer slowly walked into the center of the stage and danced to the music.
"This year's song and dance choreography is pretty good."
“It’s pretty good.”
After the dance, the dancer bowed in the direction of Yu Lan and the others, then quietly retreated.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhaohua stood up first, poured himself a glass of wine, and raised the glass to signal to the emperor.
"Brother, imperial concubine, sister-in-law, happy New Year's Eve, Zhaohua wishes you good health and all the best."
Seeing Zhaohua start, Princess Linjia, who was sitting next to her, also stood up with a smile, "The imperial sister also wishes the imperial brother, as well as the imperial concubine and sister-in-law a long life, good health, and many children."
"Okay, I wish you the best of luck from the two royal sisters."
Zhao Chengji said, raised his hand to indicate, and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp. The emperor's sister naturally wanted to give him some face.
Yu Lan didn't know how to drink, but when she was so happy, she even made herself a glass of fruit wine suitable for girls.
"I also wish the emperor peace and joy, all your wishes come true, and all the best! In addition, I also wish the Northern Territory country good weather, peace and prosperity, and that it will be better and better year by year."
Everyone present stood up one by one and toasted the emperor.
"I wish your Majesty good health and all the best. I wish the Northern Territory Kingdom a prosperous new year, peace and prosperity for the country and the people."
"Long live Long live Long live……"
Eat New Year's Eve dinner and watch the New Year's Eve.
This is New Year's Eve.
This is the taste of the year.
"咻咻——"
"boom--"
Fireworks bloom from the sky, colorful.
At this moment, in a corner of the palace corridor, Osmanthus looked up at the sky and murmured: "It's so beautiful."
It’s Chinese New Year.
I miss home too.
Originally, the imperial concubine allowed her to go home to reunite with her family this year and come back after the New Year. However, she refused later. She said it was a long way back and forth, and she was very busy during this period, so she wanted to stay and help the empress do more.
Something happened, so I didn’t go back.
He turned around and looked at the rooftops, but he didn't see the person he wanted to see.
"Where have people gone?"
The person she was talking about was naturally the secret guard Eleven.
Most of the time, that person would sit on the roof, but I didn't see anyone tonight. Lin Guihua felt that the chicken in her hand was no longer fragrant.
Cough lightly.
Guihua whispered: "Master Eleven, Master Eleven, are you there?"
A figure flashed before his eyes.
The next moment, there was a person standing in front of her. He was standing on the steps outside the corridor. He was dressed in black, wearing a cloak and a mask. He gave people a cool feeling.
"What's up?"
The man has a nice voice and is very young.
Seeing him appear, Guihua showed a smile on her face, obviously very happy.
"Master Eleven, do you want to eat chicken?"
eleven:"……"
So, I call him just for chicken.
"No, I'm still on duty, you eat first."
"I can't finish it. It's so big that one person can eat half of it. It doesn't matter if you eat and protect the emperor at the same time."
This is true.
"That's good."
Osmanthus laughed after hearing this.
The roast chicken was wrapped in oil paper, so she ate half of the chicken leg.
"Give you half."
"Hiss, so hot."
"Let me see."
Hearing that she was being burned, Eleven instantly floated to her and took her hand.
Her fingers were pinched by his slender hand. Guihua was stunned and shrank back with a blushing face, "I'm fine."
The little girl is quite pretentious.
Although he was thinking this, he already took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it over, "Here's this for you."
"Take it."
"Um."
I feel like Master Eleven is really gentle.
On the steps, the two of them were sitting at a certain distance apart, eating chicken together. While eating chicken, Guihua couldn't help but ask: "Master Eleven, where were you just now? Why didn't I see you?"
Eleven: "On the tree."
Osmanthus fragrans was surprised, "Didn't you like to sit on the roof before? Why did you go up the tree again?" This is a change of position.
"By the way, how about the view of the fireworks from above?" Osmanthus said, raising her head and taking a look at the roof over there. In front of her eyes, there was a vast expanse of white, which was the snow that had fallen in the past two days.
After hearing this, Eleven said: "It's okay, want to try it?"
Before she could speak, she felt her body suddenly vacate.
"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"
She is flying.
Osmanthus fragrans only felt a blur in front of her eyes, and by the time she reacted, the person was already standing on the roof.
So high...
My legs are shaking a little.
When I came back to my senses, I was excited again.
Dad, Mom, I am also the one who has stepped on the roof of the palace.
"boom--"
Fireworks exploded in the sky, brilliant and dazzling.
"Wow, so beautiful."
Sure enough, it is true that you can see far when you stand high. The view here is really good.
Seeing how happy she was, Eleven's heart became softer.
Forget it, it’s just this once, it won’t happen next time.
"Master Eleven, I received a letter from home yesterday. My mother said she would come to the Imperial Capital to visit me in a while."
"Um."
"What about you? It's Chinese New Year, have you written to my aunt to say you're safe?"
