Everyone gave different gifts, but the red envelope given by Mrs. Yu was the same, impartial, but the amount was enough to satisfy people.

In the evening, the Emperor gave a banquet to the officials. It was only after the officials left that the family dinner was held. From the time of the banquet, the whole family sat around to watch the new year. The night was spent in the palace, that is to say, they had to spend the night in the palace.

After Zhu GuanLiang and Shan Ning stayed with Mrs. Yu for a while, they had to go out to dinner. After they left, the imperial concubine and Mrs. Yu were teasing their children. Anhe moved over quietly, as if she had something to say to her, but it seemed very difficult to say.

"Say what you want."

"Sister Wu Huang, you..." Anhe poked his finger, with a strange expression, "have you ever seen..."

"What have you seen?"

"It's... That..."

Zhou Leping was at a loss. "What's that?"

"Is..." Anhe again vigilant four looked, after confirming that no one lying in her ear way, "is two men together."

As she described it, Zhou Leping didn't respond for a while. When he understood it, he looked at an he and sighed, "what are you thinking all day long? Why did you suddenly ask me this? "

Anhe's face "rubbed" red, "I'm curious, just don't understand, so I want to ask you."

"Of course I don't understand." With a restrained look, he said, "are you running out of the palace to some place you shouldn't go?"

Anhe admitted it with a guilty heart, but it was really hard for her to hold it in her heart. She couldn't help it, so she had to tell Zhou Leping what she saw in the teahouse that day.

She only said that Zhou Leping also felt that there was something wrong between Shan Ning and Jiang Shi, but what he said from an he's mouth would inevitably have some ingredients to add oil and vinegar. The credibility was not high, and Zhou Leping didn't believe it at all.

"You haven't finished listening. You don't know what they said before. It's totally out of context. You must have thought too much."

Anhe patted his chest and shook his head. "No, I've been watching them for a long time. These days, my elder brother is staying with Jiang Shi and secretly carrying people. There must be something wrong between them!"

Zhou Leping patted his thigh and said, "Oh, if you don't tell me, I've forgotten. So has Zhu GuanLiang. He's always away from home. It seems that he often stays with Shan Ning."

"I haven't seen brother five, but brother five and Jiang Shi are really abnormal."

"Did you tell my sister-in-law?"

"I don't dare. If my sister-in-law knows about it, it will be the end of my brother's life. Everyone knows about it. I only dare to tell you. What if it's true? What about sister-in-law? "

Zhou Leping comforted her, "don't worry, it won't, they are busy recently because of Jiang Fan's case, mostly related to that."

An he still didn't believe it, and he listed a lot of evidence, but most of them couldn't resist scrutiny. Zhou Leping knocked twice on her head, "is that what you think all day long? If I tell Mrs. Yu, you can bear it. "

"No, I'm just curious, and I haven't said these words to anyone except you. I knew I would be scolded if I said them."

"It's right not to tell anyone. It's not a joke."

This new year's banquet is much more lively than usual. Besides Yun Qing, there are also many foreign envoys. These people are not pure minded. Princess Anhe has reached the hairpin. When she is old enough to get married, nine out of ten of these people come to propose marriage.

But the sage didn't have that idea. There was only such a princess under his knee. Naturally, he was reluctant to marry far away, so the atmosphere was delicate.

In the same delicate atmosphere are Shan Ning and Prime Minister Jiang. Jiang Shi's eyes go back and forth between them, and his heart is full of contradictions.

On the one hand, he wanted to stop Prime Minister Jiang, but he didn't know where to start. On the other hand, he wanted to settle the matter in private, but Shan Ning got involved, and he couldn't do it.

Jiang duo didn't know, so he was kept in the dark. He just felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell.

In the middle of the banquet, after three rounds of wine, Shan Ning came out of the hall with a wine pot. Jiang Shi hesitated for a moment and then followed him out.

A few scattered snowflakes are floating outside. The red walls and red tiles are decorated with silver white. The palace lanterns make the sky and the earth brighter against the white snow.

Shan Ning reached for two snowflakes and watched them melt in the palm of his hand. He sighed that they were beautiful and perishable. He took a sip of wine, tucked in the neckline and sighed.

Jiang Shi stood behind him without saying a word. In fact, he didn't know what to say.

Shan Ning pointed to a palace lantern hanging on the opposite eaves and said, "when I was a child, I liked to climb the roof and act mischievously. I broke my leg because of this. It was Mrs. Yu who found me and asked someone to go to the imperial doctor to treat me. During the period of my short legs, I couldn't get out of bed or walk. It was Mrs. Yu who took care of me every day because she didn't take off her clothes, She is so elegant and beautiful that she can make me laugh by playing ugly. Although I didn't like her at that time, I didn't like her as much as I thought. "

Later, I was adopted to Mrs. Yu's knees. She treated me very well, even better than her own mother. She always treated me and Lao Wu fairly. Lao Wu had something that I had to have, and she was punished just like Lao Wu when she did something wrong. She didn't treat me so carefully. That's why she showed her sincerity, not to please me, But really treat me like my own child. "“ I should have the same feelings for Mrs. Yu as you do for your father. Mrs. Yu is sacred and perfect in my heart. She is worthy of all the beauty and praise in the world. If someone tells me that all this is false, I'm afraid it's more difficult for me to accept it than you. " Jiang Shi lowered his head and felt guilty. "I just don't understand why he did it? What on earth did he have with the queen? " Shan Ning shook his head. "When my mother left, I was still very young. I didn't know much about the relationship with your father." After a pause, the words suddenly changed and said, "are we still friends?" Jiang Shi turned to look at him and nodded heavily, "naturally."“ Since I'm a friend, I'd like to ask you to do me a favor. " Jiang Shi immediately nodded, "what's up? As long as I can do it, I will do it. "“ It's not a big deal. I went to Longming Temple some time ago to pray for a wish. Now my wish has come true, but I don't have time to return it. I want you to help me burn incense. " It's not really a difficult thing to do, but Jiang Shi didn't understand, "it's a matter of sincerity. Longming temple is not far from the capital. Why can't your highness go there in person?"
