Chapter 10: For the year

After the palace banquet, all the princes stayed overnight in the palace, and Jun Lixuan and Ling Qiyang were arranged in the East Hall of Yakun Palace.
"Is it cold?" Jun Lixuan took off Ling Qiyang's cloak and handed it to the attendant.
"It's a little bit on the road, but the hall is warm." Ling Qiyang burned and drove away the coldness from her body. "There will be less snow this year. If there are a few heavy snows after the new year, it will be good for the autumn harvest."
"Are you awake? Thinking about something so far away." Thinking about Ling Qiyang walking around on his own when he left Hexiang Palace, Jun Lixuan found it very interesting and cute.
"It's not a strong drink. I woke up as soon as the wind blows." Ling Qiyang glared at him, his lacklustre eyes were more straightforward and naive.
"If you are really drunk today, next time I will only dare to let you drink water." Jun Lixuan said.
"I was negligent today. If you take some anti-alcohol medicine in advance, it will be fine." Today is a bit rushed, so he didn't care about it.
"I only heard of anti-alcoholism after drunkenness, but I have never heard of it before." It is also fun for Jun Lixuan to learn something that he didn't know before from Ling Qiyang.
"Naturally, there are also medicines that make people drunk in advance. But no matter what the medicine is, taking too much will always hurt the body." He is a healer, and he naturally understands that those medicines are only temporary relief, and it is his own that suffers in the end. body.
"That's true. But if the imperial concubine and the others take the drunken medicine today and leave the banquet earlier, this palace banquet should be more interesting." Thinking of the various things at the banquet today, Jun Lixuan would still be a little unhappy, "this It is the harem, which looks decent and honorable, but it is actually dark. If you want to live in the palace, you have to use your brain, even if you are a queen, you are not immune."
Ling Qiyang looked at Jun Lixuan and said softly: "Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite, let alone the royal family."
"Yeah. Fortunately, we live in Prince Lin's Mansion, so we don't have to look at these things often." Jun Lixuan said.
The waiter brought snacks and tea to give them a vigil. Jun Lixuan had nothing to do, so he dragged Ling Qiyang to play chess with him. He knew that Ling Qiyang could play chess, but he never had time to play chess, but he spent more time reading together. Just have a try today.
When the two chatted, Ling Qiyang asked, "Why didn't you see the second prince tonight?"
Jun Lixuan said: "Second brother’s biological mother is just a noble person, who is not high in rank and died prematurely. In addition, his second brother has a mild temperament. When he is an adult, his father seals the throne and sets a fief in the west, so he leaves Beijing. Going. The road from the fief to Beijing is not close. It is freezing cold and the father saved him from going back to Beijing. He can only come back to Beijing every spring and early summer."
"So that's the case." The second prince is also indisputable, otherwise how could he stay in the fief willingly? If he stayed with this letter, he could be regarded as breaking the possibility of inheriting the crown prince.
"Second brother also grew up next to the emperor. Although he can only be with the "Cheng" character, he is also close to the three of our brothers. When I have the opportunity in the future, I will take you to see his fief. I heard that the people live in peace. , The people’s livelihood is excellent, very good."
"it is good."
The two played chess for a while, and finally Jun Lixuan won a piece. Ling Qiyang took the chess pieces and did not shame.
"Who taught your chess? Your master?"
Ling Qiyang shook his head, "Daddy taught me that the master is too impatient to play chess with me, and thinks I'm not good at learning."
"If you want to come, your dad is talented to raise a son like you."
"Yeah." His dad is indeed talented. He can't learn half as much as his dad. It's just that his dad is restrained by nature and doesn't like to show off with others. But speaking of his father, Ling Qiyang couldn't help being a little distracted, thinking about how he would live this year so that he would not be alone.
"How did you celebrate the New Year at home in previous years?" Jun Lixuan asked Duancha.
"It's nothing special. The eldest lady doesn't like the side room and the concubine's room at the main table, so the New Year's Eve dinner is eaten with the father, the eldest wife and the younger sister. My dad, Aunt Zhou and the eldest brother gather in the small courtyard to eat. After the night, I went back to the yard to keep the year old. Daddy has always lived a simple life. He usually adds clothes to me during the New Year. He can't add a few clothes in a year. After all, Wangyang Bofu has limited food and clothing, and his father's monthly money is also limited. Not much, that's not bad."
Such a way of celebrating the New Year is not uncommon in Ye country. The eldest wife is not virtuous, or the mother's family has some power, the master will look at the wife's face, and have other attitudes towards wives and concubines. In fact, it is nothing more than acting. If you really respect your wife, you don't have to take a concubine, so why bother to be so pretentious.
"From now on, we will make new clothes in the mansion every month, and make two for my father. The materials delivered to the mansion are good, warm in winter and cool in summer. Embroidery according to the grade is not a bad rule." Jun Lixuan Said.
Ling Qiyang looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I married into the mansion to share the trivial affairs of the mansion for you. You really shouldn't worry about the affairs of your mother's family. Let others know that they will laugh at you."
"In this huge palace, there are not many people worthy of my attention, the emperor, the third brother, and the sixth brother. I don't even have to worry about my father. You must be the same in Wangyang Bofu. Only your father is worth worrying about. Since there are not many people we care about, we should pay more attention to each other’s care for each other. You can do it for the emperor, and I will also do it for my father." Jun Lixuan held Ling Qiyang’s Hand, "As for what others think, you don't need to care at all. Otherwise, wouldn't you live a hard life?"
"Well, thank you." Ling Qiyang smiled happily, feeling his heart.
"Between you and me, you don't have to pay attention to the word'thank you'." Jun Lixuan looked at the happy Ling Qiyang, and felt satisfied.
The next morning, just after daybreak, Ming Li entered the sleeping hall on the night and yelled softly by the bed: "Lord, lord..."
Jun Lixuan slept lightly and woke up after hearing the sound. Seeing that Ling Qiyang beside him had not been awakened, she asked in a low voice, "What time is it?"
"The prince, it's already three quarters," Ming Li said.
Although Jun Lixuan also got up at this hour when he was in dynasty, but today is off, even if he is going to pay a New Year greeting to the emperor and the queen in the morning, he doesn't have to get up so early, "It's still early, what's the matter?"
"Wen Mo by the sixth prince is here, saying that it is according to the sixth prince's order. Please be sure to get up early today. When the emperor gets up, go to greet you, and leave the palace as soon as possible." Ming Li repeated Wen Le's words well. I gave it to Jun Lixuan, "Now people are still waiting outside."
Wen Mo is the personal servant of the six princes. Generally, the princes are accompanied by servants. Only Jun Liche carries a prince uniquely. I originally thought that Wen Mo would be treated by Jun Li Che in the end, but I never thought that Jun Liche would always keep the gift of the master and servant. This Wen Mo was also sincere, and he was always unambiguous in doing things for Jun Liche.
If it wasn't for a serious matter today, Jun Liche would definitely not send Wen Mo to talk in the cold.
Thinking about this, Jun Lixuan got up and got up, covered the bed cover again, and said to Ming etiquette: "Tell him what the king knows, and then take a hand stove and let him hold it back. Don't freeze it. Six brothers will be depressed. Up."
"Yes, let's do it for the younger ones." Ming Li retired.
Jun Lixuan walked into the back room, where there was specially introduced hot spring water, and he could bathe at any time. Apart from the emperor’s bedroom, only Yakun Palace has such hot spring pools.
When he finished washing and his whole body was warm, he put on a new shirt, soaked in a warm kerchief, and walked to the bed. Ling Qiyang is still asleep. He sleeps very honestly, often in a posture until dawn. Zhaojun Lixuan's mind didn't want to disturb his good dreams, but today is special and he has to disturb him again.
The warm cloth towel wiped his brows, eyes and cheeks warmly, Ling Qiyang's eyes moved, woke up, and asked in a daze, "What's wrong?"
"There is something. We have to pay a New Year's greeting to the father and the emperor, and then go directly back to the house." He didn't know the specific reason, nor could he explain to Ling Qiyang.
"Yeah." Ling Qiyang sat up and let himself sober.
"Wait later to return to the house and then go to sleep."
"it is good."
After the two had cleaned up, they went to the main hall and waited. After a while, the emperor and the empress had also washed up, and the two went in to worship the New Year.
"Congratulations to the emperor, the emperor, health, Antai, and Fukuzawa." The two knelt down and said in unison.
"You two come to get up early, get up." Emperor Yanxi smiled and took the prepared red envelope from the attendant, and gave it to the two, and the queen gave it to herself.
"Xie Fu Huang, Xie Huang Niang." The two thanked them, and Jun Lixuan said: "It happens to live in the Piandian, so naturally it was the first to arrive."
"Well, getting up early in the new year is a good sign. I slept well yesterday, and I haven't slept so much in a long time." Emperor Yanxi said.
"Yes. I celebrated last night, I will always be extra tired when I am happy." Jun Lixuan said.
"Well, you haven't slept for a few hours when you think about it. After breakfast, let's go home and have a good rest."
"Xie Father Huang. Erchen is not going to eat in the palace anymore. I heard that the breakfast at Huaiying Building in Beijing was delicious, and I wanted to take Qiyang to try it." Jun Lixuan found an excuse to leave first.
"In that case, let's go. It's rare that they are still open on the first day of the new year. You don't have to line up early." The breakfast of Emperor Yanxi in Huaiying Building also had it once, and he felt delicious. It’s just that it’s not convenient to go out of the palace often, so I can only think about it.
"Yes, Erchen retired."
After leaving the Yakun Palace, the two walked outside the palace. Not long after walking out, I met Jun Liyuan who was going to pay a New Year's greetings.
Seeing that the two were ready to go back, Jun Liyuan said: "You move fast."
"Happy New Year, Brother San." The two paid a New Year greeting to him.
"Happy new year." Jun Liyuan took a red envelope and handed it to Ling Qiyang, "You entered the mansion for the first year, this is the New Year red envelope. I stopped giving Lixuan a long time ago, but you are a must."
"Thank you third brother." Ling Qiyang smiled and accepted the red envelope.
Jun Lixuan stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Brother, do you know what happened?"
Jun Liyuan looked around, let the attendants wait in place, took Jun Lixuan and Ling Qiyang two steps away, and whispered: "Your sixth brother got the news that war broke out in Hanguan City at noon yesterday. Many people in Ma disguised and mixed into the cold gate and waited. After that, Tamar withdrew under the pretense of lack of combat power. In the next year, the eldest prince returned to the palace eagerly and neglected this. When he returned to Beijing, the border only left the original The defenders of the city did not take any precautionary measures."
"Yesterday was the New Year's Day, and every family was busy with the New Year, and their defenses were much looser. The Tamar took the opportunity to rob and wound people in Hanguan City from house to house, and killed them when they resisted. Nowadays, the people in the border gates are not living in the cold. The city has been controlled by the Tamar people, and it seems that this year will not stop."
Hearing the reason, Jun Lixuan frowned, thinking that when the family was reunited, the people at the border were suffering from separation, and felt a little angry, "The news from Brother Six is ​​really fast."
"The sixth child has always had his own channel. Such a serious matter will be passed to the emperor father at noon. Let's go back as soon as possible to avoid the anger of the emperor father and wait for the news." Jun Liyuan said.
Ling Qiyang listened to Jun Liyuan's confession without evasiveness, and when he was surprised, he also deeply felt the imperial water depth. At the same time, I felt very happy, at least they didn't treat him as an outsider. This alone is very rare.
"I know what to do, Third Brother, don't worry." Jun Lixuan said.
"Naturally. With Qiyang by your side, you will be more considerate if you want to." His younger brother has always been assertive and intelligent, and he naturally knows what to do in his best interests, "I will go to Yakun Palace first. Now, Lao Liu passed by for a while. We will not act separately so that the emperor will not be suspicious."
"Yes, let's go first."
"Go." Jun Liyuan nodded.
The three of them walked in two directions.
