Chapter 89
Soon it was New Year's Eve, and the palace gave a banquet.

But both Xu Ji and Song Qingzhai did not go because of their illnesses, and they only sent two gifts.

What Song Qingzhai sent was the map of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains bestowed on him by the late emperor in the early years, and what Xu sent was ripe grains.

Um, but in fact, Guo Shun and Zang Feng helped discuss and manage these two gifts, and the two masters didn't even know about it.

On the day of great joy, Zhou Qi didn't want to seek bad luck for himself, and he would be less angry if Song Qingzhai didn't come, so he only gave a royal banquet and a few words of encouragement, that's all.

The Queen Mother didn't want to pay attention to Xu Ji, but Queen Liu had already prepared a reward, so she went along with it.

Empress Liu found the second prince, Zhou Chengyu, in private, and asked him to go with the person who rewarded the imperial banquet, "Your Uncle Song Emperor is the pillar of the country, and what your father did... is really too much."

Isn't it contradictory to suppress others while wanting to use them?

Empress Liu sighed: "Our mother and son can only do these trivial things.

"Originally it would be better for your elder brother to come forward, but the queen mother is afraid that it will be counterproductive."

Zhou Chengyu hesitated for a moment, "Then my son invites Brother Da Huang to go with me?"

"No, no, no," Empress Liu hurriedly dissuaded, "Now that your Uncle Song Huang is in the Xu Garden of the county lord of Wancheng, your elder brother acted absurdly before, for fear of self-defeating."

Zhou Chengyu took the order to ask Zhou Qi for an order. Zhou Qi squinted at him and said with a sneer, "You think he can be your help? I tell you, you are seeking skin from a tiger!"

Zhou Chengyu's face flushed red, knowing that his father had misunderstood, he pleaded guilty: "I have no other intentions, but just want to express my favor to Uncle Song on behalf of my father.

"Now, if I don't want to go, I will ask my father to appease my anger."

Zhou Chengqian was also nearby, upon hearing the words, he hurriedly got up and said, "Father, what the second brother said is very true. Today's New Year's Eve, all the clan members will be present, except Uncle Song Huang who is unable to come due to illness.

"He has made great contributions to the country, and a royal banquet is indeed not enough to show the favor of the emperor to him.

"What's more, there is the Wancheng County Lord who has contributed to the livelihood of the people in the counties of Gyeonggi."

The county magistrates of several counties did not dare to hide it, and the memorials for Xu Ji's merits had been submitted long ago, but Zhou Qi turned a blind eye.

Zhou Qi pondered for a moment, then smiled and said to Zhou Cheng: "It's hard to be considerate for you, then you will go through it for me."

Looking down at the second prince who was lying on the ground, he reluctantly said: "You can go with your elder brother, don't cause trouble, and listen to your elder brother more in everything."

Zhou Chengyu hurriedly took the order to thank him, got up and walked behind Zhou Chengyu.

After leaving the main hall, Zhou Cheng said with a dry smile: "Second brother, the emperor is quite strict with you because he loves you so much, so don't take it to heart."

Zhou Chengyu hurriedly waved his hands: "Don't dare, I can only be grateful."

Zhou Chengqian nodded, "Speaking of which, I still want to thank you. I wanted to go to the Leng Palace several times, but I never had a name. It's rare that you helped me think of such a legitimate name."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and patted Zhou Chengyu's shoulder, "Brother Yu still has some things to deal with, so you should pay more attention to the imperial banquet and rewards."

After finishing speaking, he rushed back to the dormitory excitedly, and arranged a gift for Xu Ji.

Zhou Chengyu looked at his back in a hurry, frowned slightly, and couldn't help sighing for a while.

When the two princes arrived at the gate of Xu Garden, Xu Ji and Song Qingzhai were leading a party in the conference hall.

With the experience of the first year, this time the party is very interesting and stylish.
