Prince Huai and his wife entered the palace very late, not because there was any delay, but because Rong Yue thought she was pregnant and made a noise all over the world. As a result, she was cheated and she was embarrassed to enter the palace while the others were chatting.
.
She has no face to see people.
The palace was very lively. During the dinner, Emperor Ming Yuan also returned from offering sacrifices. He was talking with the royal family members. A group of princes were accompanying him. Prince Yu Wenhao was the assistant of Emperor Ming Yuan tonight. Where was he going?
Wherever he went with him, whatever he said, the prince was responsible for being the repeater. After all, there were too many people, and the sound of firecrackers never stopped. As an emperor, he couldn't shout loudly.
Since he was crowned the crown prince, Yu Wenhao's position in the hearts of the courtiers has been rising steadily. At tonight's royal family banquet, many clan members gathered around him, inevitably neglecting others.
King Ji felt very sad and said to King An angrily: "Look at that group of people, they are like flies chasing after the smell, they are disgusting."
Now he has changed his appearance in front of Emperor Ming Yuan. He is no longer obsessed with power and tries his best to act like a humble gentleman. But tonight when he saw that all his former glory was snatched away by Yu Wenhao, he still lacked moral integrity and couldn't help but say this.
sentence.
King An didn't care and said with a smile: "He is the prince and the future emperor. Naturally, the stars will surround the moon!"
When King Ji heard this, he rolled his eyes and said, "Are you still telling the truth? Are you saying it without conscience to make yourself feel better?"
King An hissed, with a faint light in his eyes, "Brother, don't you know what to say and what not to say? Moreover, with your intelligence and wit, how could you not be able to tell the difference in today's situation?
The two of us are foils? Just play the role of foil, why bother to criticize anyone? If you are in power on that day, others may not criticize you."
King Ji snorted and closed his mouth depressedly.
When he became powerful, who didn’t feel sorry for him? Who didn’t feel jealous of him?
What is hateful is that now he has lost his power and lives with his tail between his legs, worse than a dog in the Qiankun Palace.
During the dinner, Yu Wenhao also accompanied Emperor Ming Yuan, and even spoke to the clan members on behalf of Emperor Ming Yuan. He said a lot of high-sounding words, nothing more than thanking everyone for their cooperation this year, and we will work together next year to keep the Yuwen family.
of the country, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment.
This year's New Year's Eve dinner in the palace was held separately for men and women and was held in two halls. The Queen Mother led the concubines and a group of royal women in the side hall of Guangming Hall.
Emperor Ming Yuan and Yu Wenhao led a large number of men in the main hall.
However, the doors of both halls are open, so although they are separated, you can see the singing and dancing performances outside Guangming Hall together.
The grand finale, the Supreme Emperor, arrived belatedly. Accompanied by Duke Xiaoyao and Chu Shoufu, the three giants of the Northern Tang Dynasty made a majestic appearance.
Everyone got busy to greet him, and after the Emperor took his seat, they all knelt down to pay homage.
The Supreme Emperor wears a black cloak, edged with black fur, embroidered with a pattern of flying dragons in the sky. For tonight's feast, he specially made a pure gold and jade crown, and even wrapped a gold and jade belt around his waist.
, whether in terms of momentum or wealth, he kills everyone.
After he knelt down to greet him, he asked someone to add an extra seat, and the extra seat was right next to him.
Everyone was very surprised. Who did the Emperor want to appoint to sit with him? The prince was already sitting next to the emperor. Could it be that which prince the Emperor also liked?
For a moment, everyone speculated, and their eyes roamed over the faces of several princes.
Although King Ji tried his best to contain it, he still showed great excitement.
Normally in this situation, the person sitting next to the Supreme Emperor should be the eldest grandson.
If the Supreme Emperor trusted him enough, he would be able to reverse his current situation, and he would still have a chance.
He watched as a carved mahogany chair was moved over and placed safely next to the Emperor. The Emperor then asked the palace servants to prepare the tableware.
However, after doing all this, the Supreme Emperor did not call anyone to come up, nor did he even call for the banquet to begin.
Emperor Ming Yuan asked: "Father, who else is coming?"
He took a look, everyone who could come tonight has come, who else can afford to sit in this seat?
"Your uncle!" The Supreme Emperor said calmly.
"..." It's a wonderful New Year's Eve, how can you curse people? My father is paying less attention to his image now.
Just as everyone was looking at each other, they suddenly heard a tiger roar that shook the sky. The sound seemed to come from a far away place, but it was like thunder, reaching straight into the palace.
The sound was so penetrating that it seemed to shake the Guangming Palace three times.
Hearing the roar of the tiger, the older generation of clan members present all became excited. He is here, he is here, he is back with his big tiger.
The corner of Emperor Ming Yuan's mouth twitched. Damn it, you are really my uncle!
"It's Prince Anfeng!" someone called out.
The four words "Prince Anfeng" exploded in the Guangming Palace with the same force as the roar of a tiger. These four words were heard by the older generation of the royal family like thunder.
The younger generation has naturally heard of him, but he left the capital at an early age. There are only legends about him in the Northern Tang Dynasty, but not his people.
The tiger roars every once in a while, getting closer and closer.
The roar of the tiger made people excited.
Yuan Qingling could hear it and thought of that legendary couple. They actually came back to celebrate the New Year?
She thought of the childlike affection the Emperor had for Princess Anfeng, and couldn't help but secretly take a peek through the palace door. She saw that the Emperor was calm and unmoving, an old fox was an old fox, and not a single thought appeared on his face.
Outside the door, Eunuch Chang walked quickly, his tone changed, "To report to the Supreme Emperor, to report to the Emperor, Prince Anfeng and his wife are here!"
As soon as Eunuch Chang's voice fell, a tiger roar was heard.
This tiger's roar seemed to be lying on everyone's ears, shaking so hard that the eardrums were about to pierce.
Just when everyone was stunned, they saw two people coming in holding hands.
The man wears a jade crown on his head, his eyebrows are like knives, and his cold face is majestic. He looks very old, and there are wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, but those wrinkles seem to make him more majestic.
The one who came in hand in hand with him was Prince Anfeng and Princess Luoman.
She was wearing a red cloak, her hair was in a high bun, she had heroic features, and her face was lightly painted with makeup, which properly covered up her fine lines. Xiaoyao Gong was her disciple, but it seemed that Xiaoyao Gong had taken on the look of her father.
Everyone stood up one after another and saluted Prince Anfeng and his wife.
Prince Anfeng and his wife went to the side hall to join the female family members.
Prince Anfeng was welcomed to the side of the Emperor. The Emperor stood up and looked at Prince Anfeng. The two brothers looked at each other with calm eyes. No one could believe that they were separated by more than ten or twenty years.
Reunion later.
After sitting down and serving tea, Prince Anfeng's eyes fell on Emperor Ming Yuan's face. Emperor Ming Yuan smiled and said, "Uncle, I haven't seen you for a long time. You are still as mighty and wise as before."
