After the Queen Mother's birthday, just before the new year, the atmosphere in the palace was very lively and festive, and the decorations were prosperous, making people feel happy.

"Master, this servant knows how to cut window grilles. Why don't you cut some window grilles and stick them on, otherwise Tianfeng Palace will be too deserted." Huan Yun took the initiative to suggest to Nan Xi.

"Just take care of it. You are the butler of Tianfeng Palace." Nan Xi said with a smile.

Huanyun couldn't help but smile when he heard the words:
  "Then slave girl, go get some red paper and cut it up right now."

After saying that, Huanyun jumped up and down to find the red paper.

Grandma Su looked at Huanyun, who was much more lively, and couldn't help but smile:
  "In the past, compared with Feiyun, Huanyun seemed calm. Now that Feiyun is no longer in Tianfeng Palace, she seems to be the liveliest."

"Yeah, it's better to be more lively. Huanyun's temperament was too quiet before, and honest people are easily bullied."

"What Di Ji said is that when working in the palace, you still can't be too honest." Grandma Su nodded in agreement.

"Aunt Su, do you have any special arrangements for New Year's Eve in this palace?" Nan Xi looked at Aunt Su curiously and asked.

"Speaking of special arrangements, I don't know if this counts-"

"Mommy, come and listen."

"After having the New Year's Eve dinner together, the masters in the palace need to stay together in the same palace. They have to wait until New Year's Eve passes before they can return to their own palaces. Last year, they stayed together in the palace of Concubine Lin. This year they will not stay together. You know which palace it will be to watch the New Year's Eve." Aunt Su said to Nan Xi with a smile.

"That's it." Nan Xi murmured.

What I was thinking about was that we would most likely stay together at Ci'an Palace or Tianfeng Palace today.

Sure enough, as soon as Nan Xi thought this, she saw Eunuch Fu coming to inform about the arrangements.

"I've met Di Ji."

"Eunuch Fu is exempt from the courtesy. I wonder why Eunuch Fu came to Tianfeng Palace?"

"Back to Di Ji, I am here to inform you that on your Majesty's order, all the masters will come to Tianfeng Palace to stay together on New Year's Eve this year. I also ask Di Ji to make preparations in advance."

"Did the father decide it?" Nan Xi thought that they would most likely stay together at Ci'an Palace, but she didn't expect that they would stay at Tianfeng Palace.

"It was decided by Your Majesty and the Queen Mother after discussion. Originally, Your Majesty wanted to place it in Ci'an Palace, but the Queen Mother said that this is the first year that Emperor Ji returned to the palace, so she placed it in Emperor Ji's Palace for Emperor Ji to touch. Enjoy everyone's blessing and joy." Eunuch Fu explained to Nan Xi with a smile.

Hearing Eunuch Fu's explanation, Nan Xi was a little surprised, but she quickly reacted and smiled at Eunuch Fu.

"Okay, I know this and will make preparations in advance."

"Then the servant will go back and resume his life first. Emperor Ji will stay behind, so there is no need to see her off."

After saying that, Eunuch Fu left.

Nan Xi looked at Nanny Su again and asked:
  "Does Grandma know what to prepare?"

Nan Xi spent the New Year in the palace for the first time, and she didn't know enough about this aspect, so she could only ask Aunt Su for advice.

"Di Ji only needs to prepare tea, snacks and a heater. There is no need to prepare anything else."

"Then please help me prepare these things. I have to leave the palace later and may not have time to prepare." Nan Xi looked at Aunt Su and said.

"Don't worry, Di Ji, these old slaves will just come and prepare. But we will celebrate New Year's Eve in the afternoon. Where will the master go?" Grandma Su asked subconsciously, caring about her.

"I want to go see the regent."

Nan Xi didn't say anything more, and Aunt Su didn't ask any more questions. She glanced at Nan Xi with a clear conscience, saying that she was someone who had been there before and understood. Nan Xi ignored Nanny Su’s teasing gaze, changed her clothes and left the palace in a carriage.

The Regent's Mansion was also decorated with lanterns and decorations, and Xia Houqi had been waiting for Nan Xi at the door very early.

The moment he saw Nan Xi, Xia Houqi immediately went up to her and pulled her out of the carriage.

"I have been waiting for you for a long time, why did you just leave the palace?"

"Some things in the palace have been delayed. Eunuch Fu came just now to deliver the message, saying that on New Year's Eve this year, everyone will stay at Tianfeng Palace, so we made some preparations." Nan Xi explained lightly.

"It's windy outside, let's go in and talk."

Xia Houqi helped Nan Xi and walked in, turning the person all the way into his bedroom.

After closing the door, Xia Houqi couldn't wait to kiss Nan Xi. Nan Xi also hugged his neck very cooperatively, and the two of them kissed inseparably.

After the kiss, Nan Xi's breath became a little unsteady, and she leaned into his arms and panted lightly.

Xia Houqi looked at her face tenderly and said with a smile:

"Where is my New Year's Eve gift? On that day, you said you had something to give to me."

After Nan Xi calmed down, she took out a small thing from her arms and stuffed it into Xia Houqi's arms, then walked to the soft couch and sat down.

"Is this a purse?"

"Well, the medicinal materials inside were hand-selected by me. They are good for sleep. If you accidentally inhale the medicine, open your purse and inhale hard to clear your mind." Nan Xi said calmly.

Hearing this, Xia Houqi raised his eyebrows, found a rope, put it into his purse, hung it around his neck, and hid it in his clothes. It looked like a treasure.

Nan Xi couldn't help but curl her lips when she saw Xia Houqi's little actions.

"I gave it to you, but what about you? Where is my gift?" Nan Xi asked Xia Houqi for a gift again.

"I can't give you the gift I gave you now. You won't be able to see it until later. Don't be impatient. You'll receive it in the evening."

Hearing this, Nan Xi raised her eyebrows and temporarily accepted the surprise he had prepared for herself.

"Did you have dinner at the mansion and then go into the palace to pay your respects to your father?"

"Well, this has been the case in previous years, but if the emperor gives the order to let me spend the New Year's Eve with the emperor, I can leave everyone in the house and go to the palace to spend the New Year's Eve." After saying that, Xiahou Qi looked at him expectantly. Xiang Nanxi, waiting for her answer.

When Nan Xi heard this, she fell into deep thought and was seriously considering whether to bring Xia Houqi into the palace.

Seeing that Nan Xi was still hesitating, Xia Houqi began to coax her.

"Good Emperor, I haven't spent New Year's Eve with you yet. Are you willing to let your future royal wife spend New Year's Eve alone? Anyway, I will enter the palace later to pay my respects to Her Majesty and the Queen Mother, so why not just go directly? How does Emperor Ji feel about bringing the minister into the palace and celebrating New Year's Eve together?"

Nan Xi saw that Xia Houqi was acting coquettishly in order to spend New Year's Eve with her in the palace, so she reluctantly agreed to his request.

"Since the prince has begged me like this, I will pamper you once and take you to the palace to celebrate New Year's Eve. However, if you enter the palace later, if your father doesn't let you, I will have to grieve you and go back to the palace to celebrate New Year's Eve. .”

Although Nan Xi knew that her father would agree, there was no chance that his father would suddenly change his mind and not allow him to come with her. Then Nan Xi would have no choice.

"As long as Emperor Ji agrees, Your Majesty will not disagree." Xia Houqi said very confidently.
