The princesses returned to their seats, but their attention was still here, and they pulled each other's sleeves: "Ah, ah, ah, wow, so loving, wow, they even feed soup, wow, feed again, feed again, hurry up Look, look, ah, ah, ah, His Highness is blushing. Wow, they are a perfect match. How can they be so different in height and body shape, but they are so well matched? Ah ah, when will God give me a husband?
"Isn't the young master from the Ministry of Industry's Shang Shu family always trying to please you?"
"What about you? How is your little general doing?"
"Oh, don't talk nonsense~"
"And you~ Sir Bai, whom you fell in love with at the poetry meeting, did he pay attention to you?"
"Oh, don't ask~ Mr. Bai is known as Wenquxing. He must have a higher heart than the sky. He even proposed to His Highness, but I can't compare."
"While the man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried, please ask your father to go to the Censor to mention this matter! If someone else gets there first, let's see if you cry or not!"
"How can I tell my father this? I am the youngest, and my sisters are not married yet, so I dare not mention it."
"We'll say it for you~"
Several princesses ran around Prince Rui and whispered to the young uncle.
————
Several princes came to Linglong and saluted: "Your Highness, you may live a thousand years in peace."
Linglong raised her hand: "No need to be polite."
These few have older brothers and younger brothers, and they all respect Linglong when they meet her. After all, the Emperor is doting on her and His Highness the Crown Prince is supporting her, so no one dares to make a mistake.
The girls were embarrassed, but the boys were not polite and saluted Qingshan: "Your Majesty, Fushun Jin'an."
Qingshan saw that the person took the initiative to speak, and nodded: "No courtesy."
The princes raised their wine glasses: "I heard that the Prince Consort has a huge amount of wine. We brothers know that we are small and don't dare to ask for more. So I came here to propose a toast, just one cup, to express my feelings. Prince Consort, please!"
Qingshan smiled slightly. These cousins and brothers-in-law were quite conscious. Qingshan drank a cup, and several princes drank. After going through the ceremony, he quietly pursed his lips and nose, winked and extended his thumb towards Linglong, which meant that he had a good vision. .
Linglong glanced at them and said to her heart, "You guys are the ones to boast about. You guys know everything."
The cousins were gone.
Qingshan raised his eyebrows and said, "My cousins are all good, they know how to read and don't talk too much."
Linglong shook her head and sighed: "Well, let's see who you compete with. If you compete with Sister-in-law Xiang, you will naturally know how to look at her eyes and not talk too much."
Qingshan burst into laughter and said, "Isn't that right? I really miss Sister-in-law Xiang a little bit."
Linglong covered her little mouth with a silk handkerchief and looked at him with a squinting look, and joked: "Next time I go back to Xincun, I will let Sister-in-law Xiang have a good chat with you. I will teach you how to love your wife."
Qingshan hissed and felt a chill all over his body: "Sister-in-law Xiang is not bad, she is just a mouthful. For Xiao Baozi's sake, she is so cute. Let's not be angry with her."
Linglong pushed him softly: "Who is angry?"
Qingshan grabbed the little hand that was pushed towards him, kneaded it in his palm, and pulled her into his arms: "Daughter-in-law, it's like a dream, you are really my wife. Don't wake me up when firecrackers are set off. Wake up." It’s a sweet dream to come and see it.”
He leaned close to Linglong's ear, the hot air made it red, and said in a low voice, "That's why I'm so angry that I'm crying."
Linglong leaned on his shoulder and smiled: "I haven't seen you cry before. How can you, a rough guy like you, cry sometimes? If you say that, I would like to see you."
Qingshan gently rubbed the long hair on Linglong's back: "Don't, don't, don't. I can't bear to wake up from such a good dream."

At the end of the banquet, everyone had eaten, drank and was in high spirits, and the singing and dancing were extremely lively.
The emperor and queen began to distribute rewards. The highlight of the entire banquet was when everyone, starting from the princess, received eight pieces of brocade and eight pieces of gold jewelry. The princes each received eight pieces of brocade and eight pieces of gold accessories.
When the princes and princesses arrived, they each received sixteen bolts of silk, sixteen bolts of brocade, sixteen pieces of gold jewelry, and sixteen pieces of gold accessories.
Above them are the princess and the consort, Linglong Qingshan receiving the reward, thirty-six pieces of silk, thirty-six pieces of brocade, thirty-six pieces of gold jewelry, and thirty-six pieces of gold accessories. A luminous pearl.
When it comes to His Royal Highness, there are sixty-six bolts of silk, sixty-six bolts of brocade, sixty-six pieces of gold jewelry, and sixty-six gold accessories. A luminous pearl.
Everyone received the reward, and happily gathered together to chat, and the singing and dancing became lively again.
The emperor and the queen were particularly happy to see the children gathering together.
It was lively until after midnight, when everyone set off firecrackers together. Huge fireworks soared into the sky and exploded with countless sparks. The sound of firecrackers resounded throughout the New Year's Eve.
Every family reunited and set off firecrackers, which overlapped with the sound of the palace's firecrackers. Like an echo, from far to near, from big to small, the sound of firecrackers continued until morning.
Once the banquet was over, everyone went back to their homes. There was still a small family gathering and their own dumplings to eat.
————
The emperor, the queen, the prince, the princess's consort, the wise prince and his wife, and the prince and his wife all ate dumplings together again and had a good chat.
The elders gather together, and the juniors gather together.
Bai's sister-in-law asked with a soft smile: "Your Highness, has there been any movement?" Linglong snorted: "Not yet."
Linlang knew the inside story and was afraid that Linglong would be exposed. If the news got out from his woman, he couldn't bear it.
He whispered to stop: "Ruhuan! How embarrassing are you for His Highness with such privacy? Don't ask again."
Bai's sister-in-law paused and said to herself that I have been barren for so many years. Everyone kept asking, "Have you ever thought about how embarrassed I am?" Why don't I see you stopping others from asking me?
I only asked His Highness one question and you refused. Sure enough, your family is your heartthrob, and your wife is still an outsider even though she has been with you for many years!
She returned to her seat depressed and heartbroken, and was silent no longer, lowering her head and feeling sad silently.
Linglong saw it and tugged on her eldest brother's sleeves: "This is because you care about me. What can eldest brother say? There is nothing embarrassing between us women. But you, you are so busy on weekdays that you spend time with your wife. ?”
Linglong pushed her eldest brother, raised her chin and winked. The eldest brother understood and went to coax his own woman.
Linglong shook her head and sighed, it would be difficult for Bai's sister-in-law to die if she had such a husband.
She looked at Qingshan: "Huh! Man!"
Qingshan looked innocent: "What's wrong with me?"
————
After eating the dumplings, the sky gradually became brighter and everyone dispersed.
When Qingshan and Linglong returned to the princess mansion, they were so sleepy that they fell asleep in the sedan chair.
When I entered the house, I just expected to go to bed immediately.
But I heard someone came to report, and Xiao Xizi asked to see him.
Linglong suddenly woke up, Xiao Xizi?
Let him in! ~
The door of the princess's palace could not be knocked open by the princes, nobles, or dignitaries. Only this powerless little eunuch could knock it open.
————
Xiao Xizi entered the main hall carrying a bag of peach kernels and almonds.
"Your Royal Highness the Princess is a thousand years old! My Prince Consort is blessed and safe!"
