"Thank you, the emperor and the empress, for your generosity! From now on, the villain will never go to that kind of place to have fun, and will not give the princess the opportunity to insist on going!" Du Long replied with secret joy. "Okay! Feng'er, you and Du Long should leave quickly!" The queen waved her hands at the right time and said with a smile. "Thank you, Your Majesty!" Du Long stood up and looked at each other with Princess Huofeng. The two could see a smile in each other's eyes, and then they got up and went back to everyone. "Everyone, let's be flat!" After the two returned to their respective positions, the emperor squeezed out a slightly embarrassed smile and said pretending to be majestic. Naturally, all the officials stood up after shouting Long live. After such a farce, everyone looked at Du Long with strange eyes. The well-known waste of the second generation ancestor in the capital of the Haotian Empire seemed to behave very differently from the legend. Surrounded by hundreds of civil and military officials, it is really rare for this kid to be able to do this! 'I'm afraid it is difficult for some important officials in the court to be as calm as him, right? ’ This thought came to many people’s minds. "Master Zhao! It seems that your family's resignation is a bit unwise..." Next to Zhao Guodong, the minister of the second-rank household department, the minister of the second-rank official department, Zeng Kaikai, teased him in a low voice, and Zeng Wan'er behind him listened. Wan'er couldn't help but felt that Du Long was not as hateful as in the legend since she met Du Long at the party, so she naturally began to favor this boy in her heart like Princess Huofeng. Zhao Guodong snorted with a livid face, but didn't answer. As the saying goes, Zhao Lin'er who was standing behind him had already lowered his head and almost slipped in without finding a crack. The next procedure of the New Year's celebration is not complicated. According to the usual practice, the chief official of the Qintian Division will come out to list some auspicious omens for the New Year, and then the emperor will lead the officials to burn incense outside the hall to sacrifice to heaven! Xia Qinglian's father, Xia Ye, did this job back then. Unfortunately, Xia Ye was too stubborn. In this kind of happy New Year's day, he dared to say something that shouldn't be said, and the outcome was naturally doomed!
After offering sacrifices to heaven, a grand feast will be held on the square in front of Chengde Hall. The emperor celebrates the New Year with all the officials. Let's keep the age together in the palace! Entering the banquet time, the ministers began to go to the center of the square in an orderly manner according to their official ranks, and lined up to toast the emperor and empress above the main seat. Even Du Long's family was no exception. Soon, under the leadership of Du Zhentian, this Under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes, a family of three came to the emperor and empress with wine glasses. Huofeng, the princess whom the empress dotes on very much, is accompanying the empress. When she saw the three members of the Du family coming to toast, she hurriedly reminded her: "Father, empress! The three members of General Du's family have come to toast!" This Princess Huofeng was indifferent to others who came to toast, but she immediately reminded the three members of the Du family who came to toast, what kind of mentality she was in. "The Weichen family wishes the emperor, empress and Princess Huofeng auspicious new year and all the best!" Du Zhentian put on a respectful smile on his always staid face, raised his wine glass to toast the empress, and Zhou Ruoxue and Du Long beside him raised their hands one after another. Cup to follow. "Haha! General Du, you have raised a good son! You actually abducted the heart of my precious princess!" The emperor looked at Princess Huofeng who couldn't wait to toast to the Du family, and could only Resignedly raised his glass to the queen and laughed. "You made the emperor laugh! The dog was young and ignorant, and it always caused trouble for the emperor. Fortunately, the emperor was magnanimous and was able to avoid the crime. From now on, Zhentian will strictly discipline him and stop causing trouble to the emperor!" Du Zhentian replied gratefully. . "Hurry up and cheers! Everyone's hands are sore! Hee hee!" Princess Huofeng yelled in a tender voice at the right time. After being disturbed by her like this, everyone burst into laughter, stopped talking nonsense, and raised their glasses to each other. After a while, the three members of the Du family naturally drank it respectfully, even Princess Huofeng was no exception. "Father, mother! You have paid for countless sips of this glass of wine! It's less than one-third of the amount, so let's do it together this time! My son will help you fill it up again!" Seeing the emperor and empress two Ren still gave a simple repayment, Princess Huofeng quit, and took the arms of the two to act coquettishly. Because of her nonsense, the emperor and the empress could only give her a blank look, and once again drank their glasses in a toast. This scene fell into the eyes of countless ministers, and the meaning was different. As Du Zhentian's family of three left, people from behind continued to toast. Princess Huofeng remained the same, ignoring most of the toasters, and didn't even bother to move the wine glass. During the period, she also raised the cup a few times, all of which were close friends, such as Zeng Wan'er brought by the second-rank Libu Shangshu, Xu Luyin brought by the second-rank Jingzhao Metropolitan Xu Qirui, and Du Zhendong, who was brought by the second-rank City Guard General Du Zhendong. Do Caini and so on! But even if Princess Huofeng's boudoir friends and family came to toast, she never forced the emperor and empress to drink up the wine in the cup, careful people can still see a clue from it. All the officials of the third rank and above, and the chief officials of the fifth rank and above lined up to toast, and the officials of other ranks went to the front of the imperial court to toast together according to their ranks, and then it was time for free activities. The piles of officials set up routines with each other, and the family members gathered together again. Many young people gathered together again like the Longquan Palace gathering, but today there must be a lot of people! "Good brother! Thanks to you, I finally feel proud in front of my father!" After finally meeting Yue Xiaoshan, the guy excitedly patted Du Long on the shoulder and said loudly. "How do you say that?" Du Long asked suspiciously. "If I hadn't been honored by you, brother, I, Yue Xiaoshan, would not have been welcomed by Princess Huofeng. Just now, I went with my parents to toast the emperor and queen. Her Royal Highness stood up politely to greet me, and even bumped into us. Have a glass!" Yue Xiaoshan still said excitedly. Du Long rolled his eyes fiercely, and only then did he understand what Yue Xiaoshan meant. He didn't know that Princess Huofeng's face was not simple at all!
Two good brothers were hiding in a corner while eating and chatting. Princess Huofeng led her group of girlfriends and friends to find them. Before they arrived, the voice came over: "You two old men, why don't you Looking for some corners to whisper? It's really not easy to find you!" "I've seen Your Highness the Princess!" Du Long and Yue Xiaoshan hurriedly stood up and bowed to salute. Princess Huofeng waved her hand casually, and led all the beauties to sit down in front of Du Long and the others without any politeness. Let’s talk carefully about the riot at the Zuixiang Building at night! Everyone is so curious, is Miss Xia Qinglian okay now? Is she not hurt? I heard from Sister Cai Ni that both of you were successful when you left the Zuixiang Building last night. Killed two blood men!" ‘Princess Ganqing Huofeng came here in a hurry because she was curious about this matter? ’ Du Long thought to himself, everyone around stretched their necks to listen to his detailed account of the riot in Zuixianglou, even Yue Xiaoshan was no exception, everyone was curious that someone in the capital of the empire dared to behave wildly in Zuixianglou! So, like a storyteller, Du Long began to exaggerate his own legendary experience and told it carefully, with the proud look on his face beyond words! This one was talking and laughing, and Du Long was obviously the protagonist. This scene made many people unacceptable. Just two years ago, this grandson of the Du family didn't even have the face to participate in the New Year's celebration. The reason was that he was rejected by everyone! After several times in succession, he began to refuse to participate in this kind of New Year's party, no matter how much Du's mother Zhou Ruoxue tried to persuade him, it was useless!
