Chapter 50

It is the New Year's Eve within two days, and after this day, officials of all sizes will rest for seven days to celebrate the New Year's Eve.The Prince's Mansion was also covered with various window grilles, bright red and very festive. The housekeeper and Xiang Bing prepared the New Year's Eve dinner early in the morning.It's just that Qu He and Ling Fei really can't get excited, because there must be a New Year's Eve banquet at the end of the year. On the day of family reunion, Qu He and Ling Fei will both have to be tested for their homework.Ling Fei's homework is easy to do, eat more, gain weight, and say a few auspicious words to everyone, but even so, Ling Fei still finds it difficult to face a large number of people.

Qu He is even worse, just remembering etiquette is already very difficult, and she is even more afraid of calling the wrong person with all kinds of concubines in the palace and children of the royal family. Although many times it is enough to just smile, but the most important thing is that this In the past few years, almost everyone has been concerned about her stomach, which is not something she can get away with just smirking.

And she always felt that Emperor Cheng didn't seem to be as pleasant to her as before. I don't know if it was because of this reason that she was a little nervous.

So the two, one big and one small, squatted on the side of the road and sighed before it got dark.

Zhao'an passed by with frowning faces, and they were also taken aback, wondering if something major happened in the mansion?

The housekeeper is used to it: "It's okay, it will be fine after tonight."

No matter how much you sigh, you have to dress up and enter the palace in good spirits.

And it was the first time for Zhao'an to sit at this familiar table for the New Year's Eve after many years. Ji Qing was there, Xiang Bing was also there, and the housekeeper even brought out old wine and poured him two glasses. But considering that he just recovered from his illness, he was not allowed to drink too much.

After dinner, everyone enjoyed themselves happily. New Year's fireworks and firecrackers were arranged in the yard. Some people in the distance had already started to light fireworks one after another, and the colorful lights illuminated most of the night sky.

But Zhao'an remembered that there was one person missing, and his eyes dimmed for a moment.

Ji Qing was keenly aware of it, and comforted him: "He's not in danger, don't worry."

Zhao'an smiled gratefully, and looked up at the gorgeous fireworks in the distance.

Ling Yu and his party also came back earlier than in previous years. Unlike the gloomy clouds when they entered the palace, Qu He who came back was like being reborn from a catastrophe. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he wanted to set off fireworks and take the firecracker from Ji Qing's hand. , casually lit a cluster of fireworks at his feet, and then pulled Ji Qing to cover his ears and jumped away. In an instant, bright fireworks burst into the night sky, which was too beautiful to behold.

Qu He smiled happily, and ordered another cluster.

Ling Fei, who was already asleep in Ling Yu's arms, also rubbed his eyes, struggled and said: "I want to play too."

Xiang Bing stomped on the sidelines: "Wait, wait...the arrangement hasn't been finished yet, when it's done we'll put it together...have a formation! Stop it! Stop it!"

Qu He didn't care, smiled and hid and tried to light the rest, which made Ling Fei's ears blocked and blocked, and Xiang Bing's feet stomped and stomped, but he didn't light the others, but the yard was a mess, laughing The sound continued.

Waiting for the housekeeper and Ji Qing to arrange a series of fireworks with shaking their heads and laughing, Qu He then went to light them. Accompanied by the noise of the lift-off, the night sky above his head was gorgeous and bright, reflecting the stillness of everyone who was looking up. good looks.

Ling Yu stood side by side beside Zhao'an, feeling the smiles of the people around him, feeling that the wind and rain all of a sudden were blocked from this small courtyard, and stretched out his hand to hold the slightly hot palm.

Zhao'an's ears turned red, and he held his warm fingers tightly. His fingers were intertwined, his heartbeat seemed to be connected together, and bright fireworks burst out. Under this bright moment of youth, he quietly made a wish—only wish Every year today, every year today.

Spring is waking up, and the weeping willows on the long street are surrounded by drizzle and smoke, moistening the ancient capital, silent but ubiquitous.

In the main hall of Yuanhe, Emperor Cheng yawned lightly, looking at the courtiers below who were fighting for the appointment of several officials, he only felt a trace of moisture in his nose, and asked softly: "Is it raining? "

Qingming put his hand in his ear and said, "Your Majesty, yes."

Emperor Cheng glanced at the crowd again. Under the control of Prime Minister Qin, Ling Yu didn't have many opportunities to speak up on this kind of matter. He didn't speak from the beginning. He just felt bored, and the left and right were only the Qin family's. Student, what is there to argue about.

He raised his hand to suppress the chatter of the courtiers: "I'm tired, I'm here today, let's retreat first."

The courtiers were astonished. In recent years, Emperor Cheng had gradually become less diligent than before. It was unprecedented to end the early court so casually. This made people wonder what caused Emperor Cheng to be unhappy.And these years of Emperor Cheng's uncertain weather also made no one dare to speak out to persuade him, but they all said: "Yes."

Emperor Cheng's mouth raised an arc, but his eyes looked at them coldly, and he just wanted to get up and leave.At this time, an official came out of the hall and shouted: "Your Majesty, please stay."

The other people in the court hall looked sideways at him, thinking that this man was really brave, and they all waited for him to say the following, but Ling Yu frowned when he heard the sound.

Emperor Cheng looked at the young officials in the palace, a sneer flashed in his eyes, and he didn't want to talk to him.

Qingming understood, and declared, "Back to the court."

But the young man took another step forward, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, please listen to the minister's words, and ask Your Majesty to appoint a crown prince as soon as possible."

As soon as this remark came out, the whispers in the audience quieted down, and a smile appeared on Qin Xiang's face calmly.

Emperor Cheng stopped in his tracks, looking at the desperate young courtier in front of him, he couldn't see any joy or anger for a while.

And Ling Yu also turned his head and looked at this person coldly.

Different from his shocking words, the young courtier seemed to have nothing in his eyes, calm as a pool of stagnant water, and just said: "Your Majesty has always been absent-minded in the morning court recently. If the dragon's body is not in good condition, I suggest whether you can establish a crown prince early to establish the foundation of the country." .”

From a certain point of view, these words were really treasonous. The whole court was very quiet, and the courtiers didn't even dare to breathe out, their eyes kept rolling around Chengdi and Ling Yu.

Everyone knows this person, who was born in the household department, and is one of the few people in this court who has been supported by Ling Yu, and he doesn't usually talk much.Although Ling Yu never intentionally win over the courtiers, in the eyes of everyone, this is the party of the three princes.

But this time the third prince will not end well.

Everyone is waiting for Emperor Cheng's thunderous wrath.

However, after waiting for a long time, he heard Emperor Cheng say: "I think Qing is right."

Ling Yu was taken aback, Qin Xiang was stunned, the young courtier raised his astonished eyes, and there was a lot of discussion in the hall.

Emperor Cheng laughed instead of anger, his voice was not loud, but the words were clearly audible: "This is a big matter, don't rush it for a while, all the ministers can discuss it."

This is tantamount to telling everyone that there can be a theory of establishing a prince, and the eyes of the courtiers have turned to Ling Yu and Ling Xu. For many years in the dynasty, except for King Shen who was relegated from Beijing, all princes have not been named princes, and the third prince He is the son of the eldest son, with noble status, mature and stable, the fifth prince is talented and intelligent, he came from behind, and has the Qin family as the assistant prime minister.

Above the court, the ministers have different thoughts, and the situation is quietly surging.
