Every year at the end of the year, all the members of the Royal Family must have a New Year's Eve meal together. Therefore, the imperial kitchens in the palace were extremely busy, but compared to the previous years, it was much easier for the imperial concubines and beauties to leave.

If there is an urgent matter, you can go to the palace and meet him in person!

"Come, let Father touch it." Helian Lie extended his hand and gently caressed Cen Xue's lower abdomen. He wanted to feel the child in her womb.

"Hur hur, it's only been two months, how could I react?" Cen Xue pushed him to be more serious.

"Who said there wasn't any reaction? He is an orphan child, he is definitely different from ordinary people." Helian Shan said proudly. He didn't know what kind of appearance the child would have after it was born.

He had already imagined that girls must be as beautiful and adorable as Cen Xue, so it was needless to say that boys must be as strong and mighty as him. When he grew up, his throne would be passed down to him, allowing him to become the ruler of a country.

"Oh right, who's coming for dinner tonight?" Cen Xue knew that tonight was the end of the year, it must be very lively.

"Then who do you want?" Helian Shan embraced her and asked.

Since he said so, she naturally didn't feel awkward anymore: "It's not that much, naturally, it's the old prime minister and Yuwen Clan."

"Hahaha, I knew it. Don't worry, they will come." Helian Zhang gently stroked her red lips, not daring to continue his next move.

Now that Cen Xue was pregnant for more than two months, Dr. Keser repeatedly reminded her that they should not be in the same room when the baby was less than three months old. At this point, if the baby was not stable, it would easily lead to a slip, so Helian Shan had no choice but to act like a saint and embrace the restless Cen Xue by his side every night, forcefully suppressing his impulse until daybreak.

Helian Lie protected Cen Xue as she sat on the seat of honor. Helian Qi and Helian Jue sat on the left and right side of the table near the seat of honor, while Dan Xiong and Yuwen Tai also appeared on the table.

Tonight is the end of the year, so there are no outsiders here. Helian Shan's face was filled with joy as he carefully protected his lovely wife by his side.

"Many thanks, Your Majesty …" After a series of loud cheers, the sound of music rang out once again.

Sitting on the left was Helian Qi, and beside him was, of course, Zha Na. Tonight's meeting, the King would let her attend, which made Zha Na surprised. He looked at the handsome and extraordinary Helian Shan sitting in the master's seat.

Yuwen Tuo and Yu Wu were currently in the midst of their newlyweds, and you, Lun Nong and Yuwen Tai were envious of them. However, Dan Xiong and Yuwen Tai were very happy, and they hoped that Yu Wu could be like Cen Xue, and they would be able to carry their grandchildren.

When Cen Xue smelled the greasy food, she felt like vomiting. Helian Lie had ordered the imperial chef to prepare delicious and light food for her. He picked up a piece of fish meat and carefully picked out the fish thorns for her.

Sunset Moon just happened to be sitting next to her, keeping a close eye on her in case something happened to her.

In the middle of the dance floor, a pretty body of a dancer appeared, twisting her slender arm in the air, and scattered the red silk in the air, her bewitching eyes staring at Helian Zhang who was sitting on the main seat, he was the king, these dancers had the chance to dance in front of the imperial throne, they all wanted to seize this opportunity to win the king's heart.

During this freezing season, the dancers were still wearing thin clothes, revealing her fair skin. The thin clothes only covered her private parts, and a large part of her skin was exposed, the muslin and red silk fluttered up, slowly falling down. Helian Qi, who was sitting at the side, was especially entranced.

"I want to have a drink of that." Cen Xue pointed at the wine in his glass.

"This won't do. You're pregnant now, so drinking alcohol is too harmful to your body. You should drink some bird's nest. Here, I'll give it to you alone." Helian Shan was not in the mood to watch the performance of the dancer below the stage. At this moment, he was focused on coaxing his lovely wife beside him. How could he have that kind of thought?

The dancers did their best. Although the king did not even glance at her, she did not give up and continued to put on a coquettish show, repeatedly winking at the king on the main seat.

Zana coldly looked at the dancers that were just a few steps away from her. She could tolerate all the women before her, but with her here today, this girl dared to openly tempt the king in front of her. She must be tired of living!

Beneath the table, a pair of slender hands were clenched into fists. She definitely wouldn't allow such a person to appear in front of her beloved man again.

Cen Xue had no appetite. After eating a few simple dishes and eating a bowl of bird's nest porridge, she was full to the brim. She sat beside Helian Lie and watched the delightful performance below the stage.

No matter what, she should be fine with Zhang Shan and Elder Mu Yue protecting her.

Seeing how much Brother Wang had doted on her, it had made him feel a lot more at ease. He hoped that Brother Wang would treat Cen Xue well for the rest of his life and give her happiness for the rest of her life, so he was willing to be the person silently behind Cen Xue to bless them.

As soon as the time passed, endless sounds of firecrackers rang out from both inside and outside the palace. This was a custom, as long as it was the opening hours of the new year, every household would light firecrackers to welcome the joyous day. At this point, a brand-new year had begun …

Outside the palace, in the Dancing Pavilion, a terrified shout could be heard very early in the morning. It turned out that a dancer had died from festering in her room. She was bleeding profusely from all seven orifices and was so terrified that the girl who had found her body ran out with a pale face.

The officials quickly intervened and investigated, and the result was death due to poisoning. This matter made Sai Jinhua unable to believe it. Everything was fine, how could they have been poisoned to death?

She was not the most popular dancer in the Dancing Pavilion, and was originally supposed to have been given a dance by Bicky, but when Sai Jinhua thought about it, it was just an ordinary family feast, so she was not allowed to go. She changed to Liu Jin and headed there, but she did not expect that when she returned, she would mysteriously be poisoned to death, moreover, she died in a horrible way, her entire body's skin was a mess, and it was a mess of blood and flesh.

This was the first day of the new year, and she had encountered such an unlucky situation. The government did not want to interfere in this matter, and did not want this incident to affect her reputation as the number one dancer.

A certain someone was very satisfied with this result. The corners of his eyes slightly narrowed in the darkness, and he instantly disappeared …

Helian Lie would never break his promise to Cen Xue, and the day of his and Cen Xue's grand wedding was nearing the day of coronation. He had sent people to send invitations to all the close friends of the nearby allies, he wanted everyone to know that he, Helian Shan, would marry his most beloved woman in ten days.

Lou Lan was celebrating all over the country. Helian Lie ordered Zhao Changde to pick the most precious gem in the national treasury to make Cen Xue's phoenix coronet. He would never let her down.

"Zhang Shan, I heard from Zhao Changde that you asked him to go to the treasury and pick out a lot of gems to make a phoenix crown for me. Is that true?" Recently, Cen Xue had heard quite a lot about her.

"Yes, why, don't you like it?" Helian Lie looked at her face without a trace of a smile.

"It's not that I don't like it, I just feel like it's too extravagant and wasteful. As long as it's casual, it's fine." When Cen Xue heard that the people in the palace were making a huge ruckus, she even said that the king had ordered a hundred imperial guards to capture precious beasts and wild beasts for the purpose of inviting them for a banquet.

It was just a wedding, so why did she have to go out of her way to slaughter those precious birds? This was something she could not bear to do.

"Xue'er, do you remember what Gu once said to you?" Helian Lie took her hand, his face serious. In matters between them, he had always placed first priority.

Cen Xue lowered her head and thought for a moment. He had said so much, how could she know which line he was referring to?

Ye Zichen shook his head and asked in confusion, "You spoke too much, I don't remember which one."

As long as he remembered her, everything would be fine. "I said that I will definitely make you a person that all the girls are envious of, so I will collect the most precious things in the world for you, I will use the rarest pink precious stones to make you a phoenix coronet, I will use the most exquisite and sparkling golden silk thread to make a phoenix robe and wedding dress you, I will let you step on top of a hundred flowers, step by step I will make everyone look at us with envy …"

"Boom …" Cen Xue let out a low cry as she threw herself into his embrace.

She was an incompetent bride. Without doing anything, without thinking, she could become an enviable bride. How could she not be moved by how busy he was every day and how he had to arrange the details of their wedding.

"I will definitely do what Gu You said." Helian Shan tightly embraced her, feeling the warmth of her in his embrace.

"Un, I know you treat me well, but just treat it as praying for me and my child to not kill those rare birds and strange beasts. I beg you …" Cen Xue looked at him, her face filled with determination.

Helian Lie had never objected to her words. Since she had already spoken, he could only agree.

"Alright, I'll agree to your terms. However, the ones that have already been hunted down will definitely be used by the imperial chefs. I can only agree to that." Helian Shan's gentle eyes looked at her, hoping that she would understand his intentions.

"Mm, I understand, as long as you take back the order." This man was always thinking for her. How could she blame him for being nice to her?

Mu Yue was also rushing to arrange the final tasks. After receiving the invitation, many of their neighbors and allies sent envoys to come to Lou Lan to congratulate her. For a time, Lou Lan was bustling with excitement. Everyone was immersed in the celebration!
