When the fireworks were completely over, the palace was filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke. Naturally, someone took care of the matters here, and Li Ke and the others returned to the palace.
It was still early, so everyone naturally set up a mahjong table. Concubine Yang and the other four concubines shared a table, and Li Ke, Li Chengqian, Li Shimin and Queen Changsun shared a table.
As for Changle and the others, they were killed by werewolves. They have recently fallen in love with this game, and even the princes Li Min and Li Zhi have been dragged over to join them. The more people there are, the more lively it is.
We didn't end until it was almost half past midnight. Everyone didn't get a good rest yesterday, so they must have gone to bed early today.
Li Ke also left the palace and returned to his own house. It was not the Prince of Qin's Mansion outside the city, nor a shopping mall, but the Prince of Qin's Mansion in Chang'an City. The former Prince of Shu's Mansion was in the palace city.
Li Ke has not been back here for more than half a year, and the renovation here has been completely completed. The layout of the entire house has not changed much. The only change is that all the windows have been replaced with double-layer windows, and then replaced with glass to provide lighting. Better, better thermal insulation effect.
In addition, the house has also been improved. There is no heating installed, and Li Ke has not lived there many times. Moreover, the renovation project of heating is also very large. Many houses almost have to be demolished and rebuilt, so they are just improvements and deliberately burned. Cast iron coal stove too.
With this and a chimney made of rolled iron sheets, it won't get cold inside the house.
The reason why I came back here is naturally because some people in my house are here. Yang Anning and the other personal maids are here, including Tian Meng and the others.
When he arrived at the gate of Prince Qin's Mansion, Li Ke said to Pei Xingjian who was following him: "You can go back. You can just come back before the Lantern Festival. You don't have to stay with me. You have been working hard for more than half a year." .My guards have also taken turns to take vacations."
"Yes, Your Highness." Pei Xingjian silently bowed and saluted. He had always been by Li Ke's side, including today in the palace, when Li Shimin held a banquet with all the ministers. Pei Xingjian had a place, but he always followed him silently. It’s just Li Ke.
As for the banquet with the officials, he naturally rested in the Yamen on the Imperial Guard side, and naturally he couldn't go to the rest of the place.
After following Li Ke for more than half a year, Pei Xingjian knew very well what kind of person His Highness was. To follow His Highness, just do more and don't need to say more. His Highness's decisions are often made after careful consideration. There is no need to object, just be obedient.
It has to be said that some of the behavioral styles of Yuelai Trading Company around Li Ke also influenced Pei Xingjian a lot.
When Li Ke entered the gate of Prince Qin's Mansion, Pei Xingjian turned around and left on horseback. He had the badge of Li Ke's personal bodyguard, so naturally he could walk around Chang'an City at night.
Looking at Pei Xingjian's retreating back, Li Ke nodded slightly. He had to say that those who can leave a name in history must be outstanding.
Pei Xingjian in history can be said to be the mainstay of the Tang Dynasty. In his middle age, he also held civil and military positions. He also served as the Protector of the Western Regions. He was good at promoting talents. It is not an exaggeration to say that he was versatile in both civil and military affairs.
When he was in Xizhou, Pei Xingjian didn't participate much in political management. He mostly served as Li Ke's assistant. But in fact, Li Ke asked him to handle a lot of things independently, and he handled them perfectly, and his thoughts changed. The speed is extremely fast and it is very important to be able to keep up with Li Ke's speed.
Therefore, regardless of whether they are good or bad, among those who can leave a name in history, there is no one who is bad in terms of their brains.
This man also experienced two dynasties. Of course, his achievements in the Zhenguan Dynasty were not obvious, mainly because there were too many fierce men in the Zhenguan Dynasty.
After returning to their house, Tian Meng and the others were waiting for Li Ke. Entering the main hall, Yang Anning, Li Changge, Yang Li, Liu Qingchan, and Yang Yue, who were also wearing new clothes, were waiting for Li Ke to come back.
"I'm hungry. I don't have much to eat at today's dinner. Come on, let's have something to eat together. You must not have eaten either." Li Ke said with a smile.
"Yes!" Yang Anning and others all looked happy. They really didn't eat at night. Li Ke said he was coming back, so everyone was naturally waiting for Li Ke.
There are not many people at this table. Those who should be on vacation have already taken vacation. Here are the people who are close to Li Ke.
Naturally, Tian Meng didn't say much. This was the chief steward of Prince Qin's palace. He had been responsible for many things. Besides Tian Meng, Yang Anning and the others also stayed here, and Liu Hong.
Since Liu Hong went to Qin Wangzhuang, she has also entered Li Ke's inner circle. Although Liu Hong is already forty-two this year, she has never given birth to a child, and she was also an oiran when she was young, so she does not lack money. , so it is well maintained.
She looks like she is in her thirties, with the demeanor of a MILF.
There is no one else except Huo Gang, the commander of his bodyguards. It is his turn to take a vacation this year and he has already gone back for vacation.
"Come, let me toast you all with a glass of wine and wish you all a happy New Year. Today is the same day every year, and today is the same day every year." Li Ke smiled and picked up the wine glass in front of him.
"I wish your highness a happy New Year, longevity, good health, and happiness." Yang Anning and others also spoke with serious expressions and a pious tone.
They all knew Li Ke, so they were naturally not polite. After everyone drank this glass of wine together, the meal became much more relaxed.
Li Ke didn't eat much, and naturally everyone didn't give in. In fact, everyone knew that the reason why His Highness said this was because he was afraid that they would not eat. In fact, His Highness must have eaten.
It was almost midnight when the banquet broke up. Li Ke returned to his room, while Yang Anning came over to help Li Ke rest.
Li Ke was already used to it, and he didn't feel any embarrassment until Yang Anning helped Li Ke take off his clothes and put on his pajamas. Then a soft voice rang in Li Ke's ear. : "Your Highness... you wrote on the main hall to squash Zhijie Lang. You are already eighteen years old, and I also want to squash His Highness."
Yang Anning's voice was trembling a little. Her body was pressed against Li Ke's back, and a unique fragrance kept coming.
Li Ke's body froze for a moment, you..., and... "How do you know this word?"
Li Ke's voice was unusually dry. He was not planning to be Liu Xiahui. It was just the goal he had set for himself before. If he wanted to have fun in the rest of his life, he had to stick to himself in the front. During the Chinese New Year, he was very Eight.
"Your Highness, you don't know how fast your words spread. It is estimated that most of Chang'an City has known about it for a long time." Yang Anning's face was as red as an apple, but her soft voice was full of tremors.
Li Ke's stiff body turned around. At this moment, Yang Anning's whole body was full of temptation.
After a pause, Li Ke didn't hold back. His Highness is eighteen this year. What's wrong? Is it easy for me to keep these eighteen years?

The clouds collect and the rain stops, and the grass suddenly opens.
