Chapter 567

"Although these are not as good as the bracelets given to girl Li, they are all given to me by the first emperor. They are also stained with dust in the warehouse. Give them to the two children as lucky money."

Menggu handed the box to Fu Yalan and Ji Liuxia. They looked at each other, got up with the child and knelt down: "thank the Empress Dowager for the reward."

"Get up," said the empress dowager, "it's still early to start the banquet. It's rare that you three have come. Let the nanny take care of the children. The four of us play mahjong twice."

Du Xiaoli was speechless. He thought that the Empress Dowager asked him to play mahjong. His current role is a card friend, youmuyou?!

However, the Empress Dowager liked to play, and they had to accompany her to the end.

Unexpectedly, this fight lasted until the Palace Banquet was opened. Until Menggu reminded them that the banquet would begin in less than two quarters of an hour, the Empress Dowager let them go and took them to the place where the banquet was held tonight.

When Du Xiaoli arrived, even the emperor and the queen had taken their seats. Fu Yalan and Ji Liuxia are a little nervous. This is the first time they have arrived so late.

But with the Empress Dowager in front, no one said anything to them.

"After playing mahjong with AI family all afternoon, you are tired. Go back to your position." after everyone saluted themselves, the Empress Dowager said to Du Xiaoli.

"Yes, my concubine leaves." Fu Yalan and Ji Liuxia go to the seats of the two women's families with their children, while Du Xiaoli is pulled to his side by Han Mingyi, and they share a table.

For Han Mingyi's practice, although the people present saw it for the first time, they were not surprised. It was not a day or two for him to pet Princess Ding.

But then again, if they had such a beautiful and versatile wife with high martial arts skills and strong ability, they would be deeply distressed.

When Du Xiaoli first came to Beijing, everyone knew her only at the village girl stage. Han Mingyi had already asked for a strong marriage. It was really early for the king to start!

Han Mingze is giving a speech before the banquet to the ministers, which is nothing more than thanking everyone.

Du Xiaoli listened to Han Mingze and looked at the decoration of the palace with emotion. When I first entered the palace to attend a banquet, I was still a girl. I was still arranging programs and making jokes with Ji Liuxia and Meng Jiangzhuo. It has been more than two years since they came to this palace again. They are no longer in the original state of mind.

She looked down, this is the so-called right and wrong

But this time there was no talent show for the daughter of an official. All the troupes invited tonight were theatrical troupes.

With Han Mingyi in charge, Du Xiaoli doesn't have to pay so much attention, but just lowers her head and eats what she sees in front of her.

Opposite them is Han Mingyuan's position. This time, he came back alone, but the fire phoenix didn't come.

She asked Han Mingyi about Han Mingyuan and Fire Phoenix in the palace before. He said that Han Mingze was very angry about Fire Phoenix's dismissal of Han Mingyuan and once wanted to send troops to destroy baipoison Valley, but the Empress Dowager said that Han Mingyuan's affairs were left to him to deal with, and finally it was over.

But the name of fire phoenix has been removed from the Jade Butterfly.

Du Xiaoli looked at Han Mingyuan. Now he didn't seem to get the happiness of freedom. Although the corners of his mouth were smiling, his eyes were not as divine as usual. He was indifferent to the food in front of him. He just watched the performance and drank cup by cup.

I don't know what happened between them. Obviously, they like to care about each other, but they are unwilling to take that step first. However, as Han Mingyi said, they still have to deal with their own affairs.

At this time, the queen picked up the wine cup in front of her and said to imperial concubine Yi sitting below, "it's really hard for today's banquet. Imperial concubine Yi and imperial concubine Fang Shu have done a good job in this Palace Banquet. I give you a toast."

Han Mingze frowned when he saw the wine in the Queen's hand and said, "didn't you say that the queen is unwell, so don't prepare wine for her?"

Imperial concubine Yi quickly knelt down in her position and said, "my concubine wants to put a wine glass in the Queen's place during the festival. If the queen is unwell, she can not drink. My concubine is thoughtless. Please forgive me!"

"The emperor, don't be angry." the queen smiled modestly and said, "the imperial doctor said that the minister and concubine are all right. It's OK to drink a little. Imperial concubine Yi, get up quickly."

Han Mingyuan glanced at the situation here and said lazily, "the queen seems to have been ill for a long time. Since those quacks in the hospital are useless, it's better to get out and let her sister-in-law replace them to ensure that the medicine will get rid of the disease."

"Mingyuan, you've drunk too much." Han Mingyi said faintly, but the smell from his body shocked Han Mingyuan's body, turned his mouth and stopped talking.

Princess Yi looked at the emperor uneasily, with some grievances in her eyes. Han Mingze was a little soft hearted. In addition, the queen begged and said, "get up. You can't make such a mistake next time."

"Emperor Xie, empress Xie." Princess Yi got up, lowered her head and returned to her position. She sat down, her eyes sharp, and her hands hidden in her sleeves were tight.

"Your Majesty, I'm celebrating the new year with you tonight, so don't keep a straight face." the queen said, "my concubine can't manage the back palace because she's not feeling well. Fortunately, imperial concubine Yi and imperial concubine Fang Shu worked hard on behalf of my concubine and made the palace banquet so impressive tonight. My concubine should have a toast to them." "but you said you're not in good health. You'd better not drink." Han Mingze said. "But the imperial doctor said to my concubine today that you can drink wine. A little will not hinder you." the queen said, looked at imperial concubine Yi and imperial concubine Fang Shu, raised the glass in front of her again, and said, "imperial concubine Yi and imperial concubine Fang Shu, it's hard for you." "the queen is serious, and we are also a member of the harem. This Palace Banquet is a great event, and it's our honor to contribute." imperial concubine Yi looked up again, Already smiling. "Yes, it's our honor to share some things for the queen. We can't be the Queen's thanks." Princess Fang Shufei smiled a little far fetched for some reason. "Besides, drinking hurts her body, and the Queen's Phoenix is not in good health. We'd better not drink." "it's all right. I'll just drink a little. Come on." the queen held a glass of wine and respected Princess Yi and Princess Fang Shufei from afar, Then he took a sip and put the glass on the table without touching it. Because Du Xiaoli was just below Princess Yi, when she looked down at the queen, she just saw her eyes full of hate. When the food was almost ready, Du Xiaoli put down his chopsticks and turned his eyes to the stage. When he saw those programs, he felt a little bored. "Ready?" Han Mingyi asked softly.
