Chapter 396

After Song Lanyi sat at the seat of the annual banquet.

She suddenly discovered... her position seemed a bit delicate.

On her left is Zhu Chuanye, and opposite is Zhu Bing.

As soon as Zhu Bing saw Song Lanyi, he narrowed his eyes, as if thinking about something.

Zhu Ji is a busy man.

Ever since Mrs. Zhang became the hands-off shopkeeper, Zhu Ji, the eldest son, has become the chief quartermaster who keeps his feet on the ground.

All kinds of cotton clothes, winter quilts and even food in winter need him to take care of them and make adjustments.

But after not seeing her for a while, Zhu Ji seemed to have lost a lot of weight.

Even the originally chubby big round face showed some edges and corners.

It just so happened that Zhu Ji was sitting on top of Zhu Chuanye.

Taking advantage of the distance, Song Lanyi raised his glass to Zhu Ji from a distance, and said with a smile, "Young Master has lost a lot of energy. It seems that he is very tired on weekdays. Today, he should take advantage of the New Year's banquet and eat more."

Unexpectedly, when Zhu Ji heard this, there was a wry smile on his face.

He sighed a long time, "Don't talk about this matter again. I lost a lot of weight after a long time. If I regain weight again, I'm afraid my wife will..."

At the end, he opened his mouth, as if to say what he couldn't say.

Song Lanyi's eyes lit up, and she said meaningfully: "Oh~~~"

Zhu Ji: "..."

For a moment, I really wanted to beat Song Lanyi.

He held his breath and put on a fierce look on purpose, "Don't say anything, do you hear me?"

Song Lanyi blinked, "Don't worry, I, Song Lanyi, have the strictest mouth. I will never say that. The eldest son is afraid of this sentence!"

Zhu Ji felt... Song Lanyi might as well not say this.

It's just trying to cover up.

In order to supervise Song Lanyi, Zhu Ji put his eyes on Zhu Chuanye quietly.

Zhu Chuanye was still feasting, but suddenly he felt a chill in his back and shivered all over his body.

He raised his head in bewilderment.

On the other side, Zhu Bing chewed the citrus in his mouth resentfully. Every time he chewed, it was as ferocious as if he was crushing flesh and bones.

The doorman below, his eyes are shining.

This kind of time to watch the excitement doesn't happen every year.

After a while, King Qi and Mrs. Zhang appeared on the stage, and the New Year's banquet really started.

When the time was almost up, the disciples below showed up with New Year gifts.

"The old one is sent away, and the new one is ushered in. I wish you all victories in the new year, and your wish will be fulfilled!"

"Praying for the first day of the year, I wish His Highness and Madam good luck, and wishing you all your wishes come true."

"..."

Facing the sound of New Year's greetings, King Qi's face was calm, and he was still as serious as usual. Obviously, his mood was not fluctuated by these congratulatory messages, let alone because he was delighted by the New Year's greetings.

Fortunately, to put it bluntly, everyone was used to his dead face, and there was no outrageous reaction for a while.

When it was the turn of the three eldest sons, Zhu Ji, as the eldest son, stepped forward first.

He walked to the center of the hall and ordered someone to push a big iron cage up.

When the red silk was unveiled, there was an uproar in the hall.

I saw a pure-color peacock that was all white, like the snow on the mountain top, pacing gracefully in the cage.

It either lowers its head and straightens its feathers with its beak, or squints at everyone with a haughty expression.

Song Lanyi felt that this bird was a little bit awkward.

But in the eyes of everyone, this is clearly a bird representing auspiciousness!
Among the seats, there was a counselor with a smile on his face, "My lord, the peacock is an auspicious bird, which means peace, peace and prosperity. Maybe next year, the battle of Jingnan will end."

These words scratched the itch in King Qi's heart.

His face fluctuated, and he rarely showed a smile.

Seeing this, Zhu Bing sneered in his heart, but with a bright smile on his face, he stood up calmly.

When he reached the center of the hall, he clapped his hands twice without haste.

Immediately, everyone's attention turned to his hands.

Seeing Zhu Bing pull towards the sky, a picture of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains appeared in front of everyone.

The strokes of this picture are delicate, but if you look closely, you can find that this is not a complete portrait.

To be precise, this should be called... an embroidery drawing.

This embroidery picture covers the territory of the human race, from the ice and snow in the north to the smog and poisonous insects in the south, from the [-] Buddha countries in the west to the real dragon and shark in the East China Sea.

What's more valuable is that the embroidering lady's superb embroidery skills endow this picture of a thousand miles of rivers and mountains with a special charm.

Even King Qi couldn't help being amazed when he saw this picture of a thousand miles of rivers and mountains.

Especially when his hand touched the location of the Northern Territory on the Jiangshan map, his fingertips revealed a cold touch.

King Qi couldn't help but be moved by it.

A sincere smile appeared on his face. At this moment, no matter what Zhu Bing was after, King Qi still patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him, "You did a good job."

And Zhu Bing, because of this short sentence, seemed to have great pride in his chest.

If King Qi laughed before, it was only because the counselor's words tickled him.

So now this map of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains has really been sent to King Qi's heart.
