The old emperor's words were undoubtedly to establish authority for the new prince, and his tone was full of warnings.

The princes felt very uncomfortable, what is all this?

Originally, what happened to Prince Lin a few days ago made them a little flustered. Just a few days ago, the prince changed again, and they decided so casually without consulting the courtiers. They didn’t even think about it. How lively will the meeting be tomorrow?

Although they know that their current strength is indeed not comparable to that of the prince, they will not be looked down upon by their father so casually, right?

The rest of them can forget it, but it’s hard to say that for the former prince, it’s not just a loss of face.

When King Mao made such a fuss today, he definitely didn’t really want to give up his position as the crown prince, but his father agreed. It can be seen that the favor King Mao had in his heart in the past no longer exists. .

Several people looked at each other, and only they knew how they felt.

I want to compete with them. They don’t have the strength, but if they don’t say a few words, it’s not the same thing. It seems like they are useless.

So, several people looked at each other and winked at each other, but no one was a fool and did not want to be the one who stood out. They were silent for a while.

The happiest people here are probably the current prince and his wife and the Lu Baichuan family. You can see that He Jiuniang lowered her head and only looked at the food.

Everyone had no choice but to grit their teeth secretly. After all, they would never find the second Lu Baichuan and the second He Jiuniang.

He Jiuniang is used to eating seriously when eating. Especially after shopping all day today, she is indeed a little hungry. The way she eats is not elegant, but she always feels like someone is staring at her. This makes people uncomfortable.

"Isn't it a bit inappropriate for the emperor to hold a family banquet for us to attend?"

After eating half full, He Jiuniang took the time to whisper to Lu Baichuan.

Today’s event was really a family banquet. Apart from the royal family, they were the only outsiders. If they hadn’t been thick-skinned enough, they would have been embarrassed to sit here.

"It doesn't matter, the emperor specially asked us to stay."

Lu Baichuan looked calm and did not regard himself as an outsider at all.

"Okay, the emperor seems to have finished the injection for this course of treatment. I have another patient on hand. I will prescribe another prescription tomorrow. Can we go home tomorrow night? ”

She whispered her plan, the Chinese New Year was coming in a few days, and she couldn’t delay it any longer.

　“Okay.”

Although Lu Baichuan nowAfter he became the second-grade general of the auxiliary country, but had not yet officially taken office, the old emperor showed extra mercy and allowed him to take office after the Chinese New Year, so even the general's palace that the emperor had given him was not moved there.

Of course, the emperor's reward was good, but He Jiuniang went to see it and was still not satisfied with some of the furnishings. She hired workers to decorate it according to her wishes, and she could move in after the New Year.

Although the princes were dissatisfied with the prince, they were quite friendly towards Lu Baichuan and his wife. Even if they didn’t talk much to the prince and his wife, they would still say a few words to Lu Baichuan occasionally, especially Several princes who are more interested in martial arts have made an appointment with Lu Baichuan to go hunting tomorrow.

Lu Baichuan originally wanted to refuse, but thinking that this might also be an opportunity to help the prince get closer to his brothers, he agreed.

"Your Majesty, the new year is coming soon. The minister and his wife will prepare to leave for Jingzhou tomorrow night."

When the banquet was about to end, Lu Baichuan invited the old emperor to Ci.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Have things been arranged here?"

The old emperor frowned, suddenly feeling a little reluctant.

Many things that happened during this period were the work of the couple. It was also the first time that he realized that being an emperor could be so relaxed and happy. If he had met the couple earlier, I wouldn't have been confused for so long.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, everything has been arranged. I will take office after the new year, and I will not disappoint the Emperor and His Highness."

"How can that be done? You were just now I promised the king to go hunting tomorrow."

King Yue, who had just asked Lu Baichuan to go hunting, was not happy for a moment. If we go hunting tomorrow, we must have a small barbecue and drink wine together. How else to go?

He Jiuniang helped to speak: "Don't worry, Your Highness the King of Yue, you are only going hunting during the day, we will set off at the beginning of the year."

"Wouldn't it be better to leave early the day after tomorrow? Why bother? It’s not pleasant to drive in the middle of the night with the wind and snow!”

“We are used to walking at night, there are no people at night, the road is convenient, and we have been out for many days to raise children.”

Speaking of this, He Jiuniang smiled sheepishly, vividly expressing a mother's longing for her child.

At this time, even if someone wanted to persuade her, there was nothing much to say. I heard that the couple’s children were quite young, and it was really not good to be away from their parents for such a long time.

The old emperor said: "In that case, after the Chinese New Year, your whole family will move to the capital, so you don't need to run around here. There are many people in your family, and I can still ask someone to help you." Expand your house even more."

The old emperor sincerely planned for them. Several princes felt like they had a heart attack. They felt that their father was really too kind to He Jiuniang. He was closer than his own daughter.

"That's not necessary. The house is very big. Even if everyone comes, it's enough to live in. But there is business at home and everyone can't leave. It's okay to come to play occasionally, but it's okay to live there all the time. It’s difficult. The most we can do is take away the parents and a group of children.”

Whether we can take away the children is another matter. After all, the children’s parents are over there in Jingzhou. They have all been brought to the capital, and they have fewer opportunities to meet their parents. They still have to go back and ask everyone for their opinions.

"That's okay, I'll treat your whole family to dinner again after that year!"

The old emperor waved his hand and agreed.

He Jiuniang made an OK gesture: "You can have this. When the time comes, the family's business will also be moved here. I will research new flavors and I will definitely send them to the palace for you as soon as possible. Go."

"Hahaha, that's just right!"

Everyone was dumbfounded. How come these two people chatting feel like they have been friends for years. As emperors, they don't have the consciousness of emperors. You also want to invite the minister's family to dinner, which means "please".

He Jiuniang didn’t speak respectfully to the old emperor like them. She could say whatever she wanted, but the old emperor was not angry and was happier than ever.

At this time, no matter whether it was the concubines in the harem or the princes and princesses, they were all jealous.

After dinner, the two of them walked out of the palace hand in hand. Quan Dang shrank from eating. He Jiuniang said with emotion: "This matter has finally come to an end, but I didn't expect that our family would come to Beijing so soon. What should I do with my club!"

As she said this, she sighed. It was a place she had spent a lot of thought on, and it would not be completed until after the new year, but at that time, she I'm coming to the capital, so I can't take care of it at all.

What a headache.

"There is no other way but to leave it to Mrs. Cheng, but we can open one in the capital. And those ideas you had before can also be put on the agenda."

Lu Baichuan understood her best. After coming to the capital, she was able to do what she wanted to do.

"That's true."

Late at night, the two of them took a carriage home, and Lu Baichuan heard a sound coming from the roof not far away.

Immediately afterwards, the driver's trembling voice came: "Master, master, I, we are surrounded!"
