Turning around the beam, Wu came face to face.
For some reason, in recent days, although Mrs. Wu's attitude towards Mrs. Wang is still not affectionate, Mrs. Wu is particularly fond of her granddaughter Hui Jie'er.
Sister Hui is a person who doesn't recognize life, so she soon became the apple of Jingyang Palace's eye.
Originally, sitting on her father's arm, the little princess almost stopped crying. However, when she saw Wu, the little princess's bright eyes were filled with tears again.
Immediately, this little heartless child sat in his father's arms and opened his hands towards the imperial grandmother.
"Grandma, hug..."
"Okay, okay, grandma's baby fell, grandma, hold it, come on..."
As she spoke, Mrs. Wu stretched out her hand, took Sister Hui over, held her in her arms and comforted her, leaving Zhu Qiyu speechless for a while.
Fortunately, there is still one in my arms.
It seemed that as soon as the younger sister left, the space was vacated. Brother Ji, who was sitting upright, unconsciously leaned into his father's arms.
There was another sound in the Nuan Pavilion, and several women in gorgeous clothes hurriedly walked out, followed by a group of palace people, two of whom were holding swaddling clothes in their arms.
"I see you, Your Majesty."
Staying up late on New Year's Eve means having children and grandchildren around your knees.
Although Mrs. Wu doesn't like crowded and noisy palace banquets, she does like the chattering of her grandchildren.
Therefore, she had ordered people to pick up Sister Hui'er and Brother Ji a long time ago. In addition, Sister Yun and Brother Shu, who had just turned one full moon, were also picked up.
However, these two dolls were still too young to sleep, so they played with their brothers and sisters for a while and couldn't help but fall asleep.
Of course, because they had to take care of these little babies, their mothers also came with them.
In addition to Wang and Hang, there was also a beautiful woman, Concubine Guo Xian, kneeling on the ground.
She is a new member of this batch of draftees who entered the palace. She has just turned nineteen. The most impressive thing about her is her pair of eyes, which are bright, good at sight, and full of hope.
Compared with other people who entered the palace together, Guo's background was not bad. His grandfather was once a prefect and he became an official with a rank of third rank. He was born into a scholarly family.
As the concubine who gave birth to the emperor's second prince, Guo became a virtuous concubine after the queen and concubines, but she was not arrogant and was very considerate.
Mrs. Guo just followed behind Mr. Wang and Mr. Hang, bowing down respectfully and gently.
In comparison, Mrs. Hang was obviously much more emotional. When she came out of the Nuan Pavilion, Sister Hui had just been hugged by Mrs. Wu.
So, what she saw was Zhu Qiyu walking in with Brother Ji in his arms. With just one glance, Zhu Qiyu saw her eyes light up and her steps became much lighter.
As for Mrs. Wang, she was still graceful and generous. Although there was no obvious change, Zhu Qiyu always had a vague feeling that she seemed to be a little more calm than before.
"Get up, today is New Year's Eve, there is no need to be formal."
At this point, it is no longer appropriate to hold two children.
So, Zhu Qiyu and Wu patted the little babies in their arms at the same time, put them on the ground, held them one by one, and walked into the Nuan Pavilion together.
On New Year's Eve, it was naturally not Zhu Qiyu's family who reunited.
In the South Palace, the lights are also brightly lit.
However, unlike the warm atmosphere in Jingyang Palace, the Nangong at this moment was filled with the sound of silk and bamboo, and flowers and flowers.
Zhu Qizhen was wearing a bright red gold-woven dragon robe, leaning on the couch with a hazy drunkenness.
Beside him, two women wearing only bows but with pearls on their heads were waiting. One was holding a wine glass, and the other was holding fruit.
Both of them were half-leaning on Zhu Qizhen, speaking lightly and smiling softly.
There were bursts of music in the hall, and right in front, a group of dancers in thin clothes, with soft bodies and graceful dancing postures.
"Your Majesty, the Queen is here."
Amidst the sound of silk and bamboo, a wrinkled old eunuch stepped forward and spoke softly.
As a result, Zhu Qizhen's eyes became clearer, and he stretched out his hands to push away the two beauties on his body. As soon as he straightened his clothes, he heard the salute of the palace servants.
"I've met the Queen."
Not long after, a graceful and elegant woman appeared at the door of the palace. She was wearing a red shirt and a phoenix crown, and walked into the palace step by step.
Although there were not many jewels and jade embellishments on his body, and he was not very agile when moving around, wherever he went, the palace people all knelt down and no one looked up.
As the woman entered the palace door, the dancers who were dancing in the palace also stopped and bowed down one after another, and the music also stopped.
Empress Qian frowned, walked to the palace, curtsied first, then stood up, looked to both sides, and gave instructions.
"Today is New Year's Eve. Your Majesty will stay with the Queen Mother. You go down first, Zhi Luo. Give each of them a reward of ten taels of silver. The woman will also give a piece of silk."
The eldest palace maid who followed behind bowed her head and then gently directed several palace people to lead the musicians and dancers out of the palace.
Queen Qian turned around and saw the two women in bows who were also leaning next to Zhu Qizhen. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart and said.
"Mr. Yu, Mrs. Chen, you two should go down too!"
However, these two women are obviously different from those just now. They are titled concubines.
Since Zhu Qizhen entered Nangong, he has admitted many new concubines.
The two in front of me, one is plump and has been awarded the title of concubine, and the other is beautiful and has been awarded the title of concubine. They are both the most favored.
After hearing Queen Qian's instructions, both of them were a little reluctant, but their reactions were different.
Although Concubine Yu Chong on the right was reluctant, she still stood up obediently, put the wine glass in her hand on the table, saluted to Zhu Qizhen and prepared to leave.
However, Chen Libin on the left, who had just been canonized less than half a month ago, pouted her lips, looked at the Supreme Emperor pitifully, and said softly.
"Your Majesty, you have agreed that I will accompany you today..."
"It's not necessary if you don't need your ears."
However, as soon as Chen Libin said half a sentence, she looked up and saw that the Emperor, who was flirting with her just now, had a somewhat grim look on his face.
As a result, she suddenly became confused, and Nono did not dare to say anything.
At this time, the Supreme Emperor's voice sounded again, with a hint of impatience, and said.
"The queen asked you to go back, don't you understand?"
Chen Libin's heart suddenly trembled and she said repeatedly.
"I understand, I understand, I will retire now."
After saying that, he bowed hastily, followed in the footsteps of Concubine Yu Chong, and quickly exited the palace.
After a while, the originally lively and luxurious Qinghe Pavilion quickly became deserted. Apart from Zhu Qizhen and Queen Qian, there were only a few close servants left.
At this time, Zhu Qizhen raised his head, waved with a smile and said.
"Queen, come, today is New Year's Eve, come and stay with me."
"By the way, you can't drink this wine. It's not good for your eyes. Ruan Lang, go make some tea!"
Queen Qian sighed, stretched out her hand to stop Ruan Lang who was about to retreat, then took two steps forward and said.
"Your Majesty, the queen mother just sent word that today is New Year's Eve, and she plans to bring Brother Shen over to spend New Year's Eve with you..."
