Jiaochu

Ye Lingxi turned his face and smiled, while Zhao Ce stared at Yan Fei who was walking over, as if he wanted to cast a spell on him.

"The fireworks here are really better."

Jingzhe pushed Murongze over. In front of Ye Lingxi, Murongze raised his hand and touched her neck intentionally or unintentionally. He looked at her playfully, as if he was deliberately teasing her. She watched the fireworks as if nothing had happened. Seeing nothing, he took two more steps to the side and moved next to Yan Fei.

Then, Ye Xingye came over and squeezed between the two of them, and gave Yan Fei a warning look, seemingly saying: I'm watching you, don't have any bad intentions.

Then Hu Yuhan also came over. After a while, a "Brother Yan~" came over.

Hearing the sound of Brother Yan, Ye Lingxi felt as if he had been pricked by a hairy needle.

Su Yu jumped over and tried to hold Yan Fei's arm like last time, but Ye Lingxi stepped in front of her and stood in front of her. The two girls glared at each other, refusing to let anyone go.

"Childhood sweetheart?" Hu Yuhan approached Yan Fei and asked quietly.

Yanfei didn't answer.

"Brother Yan, let's go over there to watch the fireworks. It's better over there." Su Yu looked over at Ye Lingxi in front of her and looked at Yan Fei, smiling crookedly with her watery almond-shaped eyes.

"No." Ye Lingxi tapped her toes and blocked Su Yu's sight. Su Yu said, "I asked about brother Yan, not the princess."

"Yes, this girl is asking about Mr. Yan, and the princess won't bully others, right?" Murong Ze said with a smile.

Crossing the river and destroying the bridge, if I had known better, I wouldn’t have given the beads, Ye Ling said heartily.

Seeing that Murong Ze was on her side, Su Yu thanked him. Unexpectedly, what he said the next moment put her in an embarrassing situation.

"My lord, I see that the girl is well-educated and well-educated. How come she forgets when she sees the princess? She doesn't even know how to salute the princess."

In just two sentences, he successfully left a moody and unpredictable impression.

The atmosphere was somewhat tense.

Ye Lingjue came over.

"Lingxi, father is looking for you."

"Second brother, I'm going too."

"Your Highness, wait for me too."

Ye Xingye and Hu Yuhan left together. It was a bit embarrassing to just stand here. After the three people left, Murong Ze and Jingzhe also left. Yan Fei and Zhao Ce walked east and west. "Brother Yan, wait for me." Su Yu's high-pitched voice seemed to be heard deliberately. Ye Lingxi looked back and saw that Su Yu was stopped by someone. He glanced at Hu Qian'er and Su Wan who were walking past, and then went to Yanfei glanced over and looked away with relief when he saw him going to find Su.

Halfway through, Hu Yuhan went elsewhere. Ye Lingxi looked back again and saw Yan Fei and Su Shi talking together. He glanced at the figures of several other people and accidentally found Yan Chuchu and Luo Jinxiu talking together. Something strange.

"Lingxi, what are you looking at?" Ye Xingye also looked back curiously. Apart from the fireworks in the sky, he didn't find anything conspicuous. He accidentally saw a sad face and quietly pointed it out to Ye Lingxi. , told her that it was Qi Renyou, this year's second place winner, and said that the other person's name was indeed correct, and that he had a miserable face all day long, which was unfounded.

Ye Lingxi couldn't help laughing when she thought that her father would see such a bitter and hateful face every day when he went to court.

When Ye Lanchen was reviewing the exam papers, he admired the other party's concern for the country and the people in his article. After meeting him, he felt that worry more deeply, but he saw that worried face every day when he went to court. To be honest, he was a little upset too.

Although the other party had a bitter face, his thoughts were more thoughtful and far-sighted than ordinary people. After joining the Ministry of Personnel, the two suggestions he made to Su Shangshu were adopted.

After Ye Lingjue led Ye Xingye and Ye Lingxi over, everyone was here. Ye Lanchen signaled to Eunuch De, who waved, and Xiao Anzi came forward with a lantern with a sentence written on it. lantern riddles.

"This is a lantern riddle created by the emperor. The emperor said that whoever guesses it first will be rewarded." Eunuch De said enthusiastically.

Ye Lingxi and Ye Yuyao were watching lantern riddles together. The two sisters discussed in whispers. One gestured this character on his hand, and the other gestured that character on his hand. After Ye Xingye gestured on his hand for a while, he looked at him. The eldest emperor brother looked at his second brother again, and then joined the camp of the two little emperor sisters, and the three of them whispered together.

Ye Qingran and Ye Lingjue already knew the answer, but no one said it.

After the three of them discussed in whispers, they decided on the final answer, and Ye Lingxi raised her hand to tell the answer. Eunuch De said he guessed it right and waved. Xiao Anzi came forward with the reward. The reward was covered with red silk, so you couldn't see what it was.

Ye Lingxi originally expected to see a scene of golden light.

Eunuch De opened the red silk and found...a book inside. She picked up the book and looked at it, and found that it was a book of Xiao Pu. After understanding her father's intentions, she felt that it didn't matter whether it was glittering or not. She thought that since Xiao Pu was specially prepared for her, her father must have prepared special gifts for everyone.

The next day, Eunuch De sent people to deliver the rewards. Ye Qingran's was a piece of white jade with a warm and delicate texture, which is an excellent material for making jade carvings. Ye Lingjue's was a piece of suet ink that is hard to find for a thousand dollars, and Ye Yuyao's was a piece of white jade. This sheet music.

In the afternoon, Ye Lingxi was going to pay New Year greetings to her eldest brother and collect red envelopes. When she was approaching Changle Palace, she saw a palace maid walking in front and stopped her.

Furong bowed her head slightly and walked over to salute and wait for instructions. Seeing that she was holding another bag of tea leaves, Ye Lingxi asked, "Are you here to see Big Brother?" Furong replied, "I have received favors from His Highness before, and this tea is not valuable, it is just a little bit of my heart. "Ye Lingxi said, "Didn't you come to thank big brother last time? Big brother doesn't value these false gifts, so you don't need to come again. If you delay your errand, your monthly payment will be deducted. Go back." Furong thanked her. , "Thank you for the reminder, princess, I'll take my leave first." Ye Lingxi nodded, and Furong left first.

Looking at the other party's leaving figure, Ye Lingxi thought to himself that he knew how to advance and retreat. If his ambition was not so big, it would not be difficult to live an honorable life in the future by working honestly as a servant.

After entering Changle Palace, Xiao Quanzi led the three masters and servants into the palace. Ye Lingxi clasped his hands and bowed to Ye Qingran for New Year greetings, "I wish my eldest brother good health, long life, peace and all the best." Qingran took out the red envelope and handed it to her. After being reserved for two seconds, she raised her hand to accept it and took away a small wooden tiger.

Then, she took a trip to Yuyuan Palace and Ganquan Palace, and received two red envelopes, a sword and a piece of mutton-fat ink. She also took a trip to Liuli Garden, and asked Murong Ze to spend some of his private money. .
