Chapter 891: Picking peaches is easier than planting peach trees!

Chapter 891 Picking peaches is easier than planting peach trees!

Everyone stood up quickly, knelt on the ground one after another, and shouted in unison, "Long live the emperor, long live the emperor, and the queen mother lives a thousand years!"

The emperor supported the queen mother and walked through the crowd, directly to the innermost side of the hall.

There was a long sandalwood table placed there. The chair facing north and south naturally belonged to the emperor, but there was another chair only half a foot away next to it, which was for the queen mother.

The emperor's eyes flashed, as if he didn't notice anything was wrong, he helped the queen mother to sit down, and then smiled and ordered everyone to get down.

Everyone stood up, bowed their heads and saluted again, and then took their seats one after another.

The emperor smiled and said: "Mother, you see this year's New Year's Eve banquet is more lively than in previous years."

“Yes, Your Majesty, the power of Tianwu and the country is prosperous, and naturally everything is prosperous.” The Queen Mother responded with a smile.

She also told Manager Yi on the side, "Although the emperor is happy today, we should not pour more wine for him. The body of the dragon is important."

“Thank you very much for your concern, my mother.” The emperor thanked him and told Manager Yi, “Remember to order the crab roe soup that I like behind the scenes and serve it warm on the charcoal stove. Don’t let it get cold. My mother will feel uncomfortable eating it.”

The mother and son were sitting on top, and before the ceremony started, they performed a show of motherly kindness and sonly filial piety.

No matter what they think in their hearts, everyone is looking at it with smiles, and their expressions are full of envy and joy.

As for whether they think so in their hearts, no one knows...

After all, in the past two years, the emperor has become more powerful, gradually taking control of all government affairs, and is freed from the pressure of the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother was forced to look like an invisible person. She really wished that the Emperor died!

The emperor wished that the Queen Mother could take a nap, so he went to see the Prince of Hell!

It just so happened that these two people had to act so affectionate...

Fortunately, the most powerful mother and son did not disgust everyone for too long, and finally ordered the banquet to be held.

Eunuchs and maids successively brought wine, food and various fruits and snacks, and they were busy but not in a hurry.

The ministers who were good at sneaking into the camp immediately came out and presented the "flattering articles" they had prepared for a long time. They almost danced and sang loudly to praise the prosperous days of Tianwu and the emperor.

There were also smooth-tongued courtiers who knelt down with wine glasses in hand, wishing they could burst into tears, lamenting the hardships of Tianwu in the past and the peace now, and begging the emperor to drink the wine to celebrate the victory.

The rest of the people just look down on these people's flattery, but they won't tear them down on the spot.

So, you and I echoed each other, which made the whole hall seem lively and joyful.

The emperor was so happy that he summoned several ministers to come out and rewarded them with all his heart.



Of course, the Marquis of Xinting was also in this group and received two hundred taels of gold and a divine bow.

Hintinghou looked very grateful. He didn't say much, but he also expressed his loyalty.

Finally, he took the things and returned to his seat. Li Laosi liked the magic bow, but because of the crowd, he could only peek at it one after another. This made the Marquis laugh, and he pushed the magic bow into his arms.

 Others didn't think much of them being like this, but in the eyes of Zhenbei Hou and others, they gritted their teeth with hatred.

If Xintinghou hadn't controlled the military power, wouldn't they have the title of general but not even 500 soldiers under their command?

But no matter how much they feel aggrieved, they dare not speak out.

Next year is the most critical year to regain Jiangbei. At this time, they provoked Xintinghou. Xintinghou gave up the challenge, but no one could replace him in the battle.

It's better to wait a little longer. After Jiangbei is taken back, there will always be people to guard everywhere.

At that time, it will be their chance!

Picking peaches is so easy, why bother trying to "grow peach trees"? !

Thinking about it, they actually felt a lot more comfortable...

Soon, the emperor got tired of singing praises and ordered singing and dancing.

At this time in the past, the Queen Mother was about to leave. But this year, the Queen Mother seemed to be in a very high mood, and she led a group of ladies to laugh and chat.

Jiayin sat there bored.

I want to eat something. There is still some food on the table that I can’t take off with my chopsticks.

Perhaps there were so many people that the imperial dining room was overwhelmed. Most of the dishes prepared were stews, and there was no charcoal stove to keep them warm, so they were already cold when they were served.

Moreover, most of these stews are made of big fish and meat, and there are no fresh and delicious ingredients.

Jiayin could only turn her head and look at the two noble ladies next to her. As a result, these two people had pale faces and wished they were eight feet away from her. They hid behind the table next door. She did not intend to continue "teasing" them.

I think today’s lessons will be enough for these two people to become anorexic for half a month and lose five or six pounds passively...

At this moment, the third princess came over from nowhere and sat down next to Jiayin.

Jiayin was startled and complained: "People are scary, scared to death!

“If you’re not going to be a mascot up there, why are you here here?”

The third princess secretly rolled her eyes and whispered: "Don't I think you are boring?

“Come here and talk to you for a few words. It’s okay for you to be ungrateful, but you actually dislike me?”

Jiayin also rolled his eyes at her and pushed back unceremoniously, "Stop putting so much money on your face and tell her if you have anything to say!"

"snort!"

The third princess snorted coldly, and went directly to Jiayin's side to make a fuss, "If you have anything to eat, share some with me!

“It’s really hard to eat these meals at the banquet. I’m so hungry at noon that I want to drink the northwest wind.”

Before Jiayin could say anything, the third princess continued: "Don't say you didn't bring anything to eat!

"Besides money, what you like most is eating. Share some with me quickly. If you get something good in the future, I will keep it for you."

"Tch! It sounds like we get along very well!" Jiayin said rudely, but his hand reached into his satchel and took out a box of egg tarts.

This is a new product recently launched by Baiyunjian.

Although the egg **** crust is not as crispy as the previous one, the center of the **** is sweet and tender and melts in your mouth. It is sold like crazy in Xindu.

When he went to the shop the day before yesterday, Jiayin picked up some freshly baked existence space, which was still hot when he took it out.

The third princess exclaimed happily, "Oh, it's an egg tart! It's still warm. How did you bring it in? Didn't you lock it at the palace door?"

It’s hard to explain the good news, so he fiercely wants to **** it back, “Would you like to eat it? If not, I’ll put it away!”

Sure enough, the third princess quickly protected the egg **** box like a puppy protecting a bone, "Eat, eat, of course I will! This box is all mine!"

As she spoke, she took one out and bit off half of it.

Jiayin didn’t fight with her. He took out another box and divided two each between Shui Ling and Shui Yun. She ate the rest slowly by herself.

The third princess saw this and couldn't help but said: "I asked you to order something to eat, but you were still reluctant.

“It’s so generous to give it to two slaves!”

Jiayin glared at her, "They grew up with me. They will take care of me and protect me. If I'm not good to them, how can I be good to you?"

Shui Ling and Shui Yun ate secretly with their sleeves covering their mouths. They felt extremely warm in their hearts after hearing this.

But they were afraid that the third princess would be angry, so they carefully observed the third princess's face...
