Chapter 335 Finale (4)

On New Year's Eve in previous years, palace banquets were held in the palace. Unlike the previous dynasties, the palace banquets started at noon and ended before evening.

After the end, all civil and military officials and royal family members can go out of the palace and go home to reunite with their families to watch the new year.

Before Zishi, there will be food gifts in the palace, and the officials who can get the food gifts are all people who have performed very well this year.

This year is even more different from previous years. Although there is also a palace banquet, this year it has nothing to do with civil and military officials and royal family members. Those who can enter the palace to participate in the palace banquet are the people closest to the emperor.

Since getting married after becoming the emperor, this kind of palace banquet is really the first time.

Not only the entire Pei family was present, but also the Dou family, the Cui family, and the Shen family.

The palace banquet is in the palace, and the New Year's Eve is also in the palace. After the twelfth hour, they all live in the palace. Shen Yunlan had arranged everything a long time ago.

In the past few days of the Chinese New Year, the emperor and empress will be relatively busy, and will gradually relax until the fourth and fifth day of the new year.

So, Dou Siqian took over the game, and everyone gathered in Yueyang Tower on the ninth day of the ninth day.

We will also get together in previous years. This year is the time when the number of people is the most complete. The entire Yueyang Tower is only open for them today, and no other guests are accepted.

This is also something that can’t be helped, after all, everyone’s identities are unusual nowadays, let alone the presence of an empress, so we still need to pay attention.

Of course, this is only one of the reasons, and the other is because the private room upstairs can no longer accommodate people like them.

In the past, when everyone got together, even if there were married people, they were a minority. Now it is different. All of them are married and have children, and some even have more than one child.

Under such circumstances, of course, a private room can't fit in it. It is the time for older children to be lively and active, and it is indispensable to play together.

Therefore, the entire Yueyang Tower is used as a meeting place, where adults can chat freely upstairs, and children can play around downstairs, and there are people watching, so there is no need to worry about anything.

The gate is closed, outsiders can't come in, and the children can't go out.

"How time flies!" Sitting on the chair and looking at everyone in the room, Dou Siqian felt a little emotional.

He was married early and had several children under his knees. Over the years, his relationship with Shen Yunru has always been very good.

"No, who would have thought that when we get together again now, we will all be family members. It's just that the people who are going around are all our own people."

Ji Yun took the words with a smile. Even though she is a mother of three children, she is still cheerful.

"How many months has Cousin Yun been?" The third child is in Ji Yun's womb, and her relationship with Jinyanghou has always been good.

"It's been more than five months." Looking down at his stomach, he looked at Jinyang Hou again, and Ji Yun responded with a smile.

"What about you?" It was Cui Mingyuan's wife who asked Ji Yun, and she is also pregnant now.

"I'm only four months old." She held hands with Cui Mingyuan, obviously the husband and wife had a very good relationship, she responded with a smile, which made Cui Mingyuan beside him laugh too.

When we got together today, Pei Mingjing's two elder brothers were also there. Unlike the others who all had the same wife, he brought two of them, and they were the two who fought for him.

Afterwards, they decided to marry Pei Mingchu together regardless of their size.

They were happy, but Pei Mingchu was still struggling. Even though men often have three wives and four concubines, he had never thought about it, let alone marrying two wives at once.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't want to, the two sisters agreed, and they simply made a game, and someone came to invite the gentleman into the urn, so Pei Mingchu didn't think about it, and it became necessary to marry.

Now, both of them are pregnant, and one of them is the one Pei Mingjing married in her previous life.

Upstairs, the adults were chatting, and the atmosphere was very good. Downstairs, the children were also having fun.

The two little princesses were still young, so they were not brought out, and Shen Yunjin's two children were also taken care of by themselves.

The one who followed Shen Yunlan and Pei Mingjing was their little prince, and this was the first time they followed him out this year. Pei Mingjing planned to make him the crown prince in the next year.

At this moment, he was playing with other children when he suddenly noticed that there was a little girl sitting beside her, with her mouth pursed and tears streaming down her face.

"Why are you crying?" He walked up to the little girl, asked her, and then looked at the servant beside her.

The servant knew his identity, and was about to respond when he heard the little girl respond aggrievedly, "Sugar."

As she spoke, she stretched out her hand towards the little prince, but her hand was empty, obviously asking for candy from the little prince.

So, the little prince looked at the next person.

"Your Highness, the girl has already eaten a piece today, and she can't eat any more."

The little girl is not very old, and the little prince doesn't know which family she belongs to, but since he can appear here, he must be on good terms with his parents.

"Sugar." The little girl still stretched out her hand.

"Eat an orange?" He thought for a while, took an orange from the table beside him, and put it in the little girl's hand.

She has small hands, so the little prince chose a small one.

Looking at the orange in her hand, the little girl still pouted.

"Which family are you from?" He looked at the next person and asked again.

"Return to your highness, the villain belongs to the house of Guo's parents." The servant responded quickly, the house of Guo's parents he was talking about was Guo Qionglin.

The little prince nodded, and looked at the little girl again, although he was not satisfied that it was an orange, but since it was in her hands at the moment, she put all her strength on the orange.

Seeing that she hadn't opened it for a long time, and the servants didn't interfere, the little prince took it from her hand and helped her to open it.

The servants on the side watched him take it, and suddenly hesitated to speak.

He didn't see it, and after picking it up, he divided the oranges into petals and handed them to the little girl one by one.

The little girl took it and ate it sweetly, and the servant looked like he had seen a ghost.

"Yuanyuan, are you pestering someone for candy again!" A boy came from there, standing in front of the little girl, the little prince looked at him, and he saluted the little prince.

"Your Highness." The young man looked a bit like the little girl, and after he finished talking about the little girl, he saluted the little prince.

The little prince nodded pretendingly, this boy was a bit tall for him.

"I gave the oranges, I didn't ask for candy." Hearing the boy's tone, the little prince was afraid that the little girl would be scolded to cry, so he spoke for her.

"Thank you, Your Highness." The young man saw it, and saluted the little prince again.

"You...don't be like this." He saluted one after another, making the little prince awkward, he glanced at the little girl again, turned and ran away.

The young man was a little taken aback, seeing him mingling with the children again, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the little girl's hands.

"My lord, you don't know that just now, His Highness took the orange from the girl's hand, and took it away."

The girl belongs to her family, and she usually takes good care of her food. Except for her own family, ordinary people don't want to take food from her, even if it is given by you.

"Really?" The boy answered, wiped the little girl's hands, watched her eat the remaining oranges, and took her to play with other children.
