Fengming Chen Palace

Chapter 460 New Year's Eve
When Su Qingning woke up, Emperor Chen was still there, leaning against the bed, closing his eyes and resting his mind.

Looking at the Emperor's face, Su Qingning found that he didn't seem to have changed at all in the past few years.

"Are you awake?" Sensing Su Qingning's gaze, Emperor Chen opened his eyes and asked in a gentle tone. Seeing her nodding, he stood up and helped her up from the bed.

"Does the leg still cramp?" Helping Su Qingning to knead the calf, the emperor asked with concern, as Su Qingning's age increased, often in the middle of the night, she would wake up because of the leg convulsions and pain.

"I don't have a cramp right now." She said with a smile, Su Qingning looked at the emperor, seeing him seriously kneading her legs, the smile on her face deepened.

"When did the emperor come?" Su Qingning asked, thinking of what Nanny Chen had said to herself before.

"You just fell asleep when I arrived. Seeing you fell asleep, I didn't wake you up." He stayed by the bed until Su Qingning woke up.

"Why don't you sleep for a while? There is a palace banquet tonight, and you want to watch the year until the child's hour?" Su Qingning was a little surprised after hearing the Emperor Chen finished speaking.

"Seeing that you are sleeping soundly, I'm afraid I'll wake you up." The bed was not too small, but if he lay down, there would be some movement to some extent, and he was afraid that he would wake up Su Qingning.

He said so, making Su Qingning's heart warm.

Don't look at the man in front of him as an emperor, but in front of him, he doesn't have the airs of an emperor at all.

"Get up and have something to eat?" There is a palace banquet at night, and she never likes to eat at the palace banquet, so before going again, she will definitely eat in Fengyang Palace.

In response, Su Qingning got up from the bed with the help of Emperor Chen. She gave orders to the outside, and Hongxiu brought someone in to help her change and tidy up.

"Is the food ready?" Hongxiu asked, Su Qingning was really hungry right now.

"Master, don't worry, everything is ready, you and the emperor can eat something." Responding with a smile, he helped Su Qingning clean up briefly, and a group of people came out of the inner room.

Some palace people presented the meals, among which Nanny Chen made it herself. She went to rest for a while, then woke up, thinking that the emperor was there, so she specially cooked the food herself.

Sitting at the table with Emperor Chen, the two of them ate, Nanny Chen's cooking skills were excellent.

At this moment, the two brothers also woke up, and were brought over by the wet nurse to have dinner with Emperor Chen and Su Qingning.

After eating, the family of four changed their clothes again. Emperor Chen and Su Qingning, as emperors and empresses, had to wear auspicious clothes on big occasions like the New Year's Eve banquet.

The two little princes are easy to say, light and festive clothes are enough.

Looking at the clothes and phoenix crown on Su Qingning's body, he knew that it was very heavy, and the emperor was very distressed about it, but this was a rule, besides, not only the harem and ministers, but also the envoys of other countries, they had to pay attention.

"It's okay, just persist for a few hours." She also persisted in the canonization ceremony before, and there is nothing she can't persist now.

After everything was packed, the family of four left Fengyang Palace and went to Yanqing Palace where the palace banquet was held.

At this time, many people came to Yanqing Palace, except for the empress, basically all of them arrived.

Concubine Lu took the eldest princess to sit on the seat, because in the past, she did not dare to let the eldest princess eat what was on the table, even if she personally organized the palace banquet.

However, sitting for a few hours is really boring, so she brought some food from her Yongchun Palace and put it on the table.

In this way, even if the eldest princess wants to eat, she can let her eat without worrying about any problems.

Outside the hall, the eunuch's report and singing came, and the emperor brought the princes to Yanqing Palace.

There was a kneeling in the hall, Emperor Chen helped Su Qingning, walked slowly to the first place, and then said, "Everyone is flat."

After receiving the order from the emperor, everyone stood up one after another and looked towards the first place.

Emperor Chen supported Su Qingning to sit down, and watched the nurses settle the children well before sitting down.

Seeing that the emperor and empress sat down, everyone sat down one by one. The difference from previous years was that because there were envoys this year, the singing and dancing were suspended, and the envoys from various countries would present gifts first.

Emperor Chen and Su Qingning were sitting in the first place. At this time, Nanny Chen was leading someone to test poison for Su Qingning.

Originally, Su Qingning didn't want Nanny Chen to do it, after all she knew her true identity, but Nanny Chen insisted that she couldn't hold her back, so she had to follow her.

There was no problem with the food and tableware on the table. Madam Chen stepped aside and watched the envoys come forward one after another to present presents.

Most of them are for Su Qingning, after all, she is the new queen.

It took a long time for the envoys to present all the gifts. The emperor looked at the list, and it seemed that one person was missing.

"Aren't the envoys from the Great Yuan here?" He asked, there were people from the Great Yuan on the list, but all the envoys had saluted, but there was no envoy from the Great Yuan.

Hearing Emperor Chen ask, the envoys in the palace look at me and I look at you, it seems that there are really no envoys from Dayuan.

"Zhou Chengren, send someone to the post station to ask." Although Dayuan is not a subsidiary country of Daxing, but because it is a neighboring country of Daxing, Dayuan is on the list this time.

After receiving the order, Zhou Chengren sent someone to the post station, the emperor ordered the envoys from various countries to sit down, and the singing and dancing began.

Before coming to Yanqing Palace, Su Qingning ate something, and now she was not hungry at all, so she simply took some fruit, and while eating, she watched the singing and dancing in the palace.

This year, most of them were arranged by Concubine Lu, and she helped to make suggestions, which was a lot more innovative than previous years.

His eyes turned from singing and dancing to his two children. At this time, the two brothers were watching singing and dancing attentively.

Last year, the children were all young, even if they brought a palace banquet, they didn't understand anything.

This year is different. The two brothers will soon be two years old, and they already understand a lot of things.

Maybe they can't understand singing and dancing, but for them, it is still a relatively new experience.

However, it was a boy after all. After watching it carefully for a while, the two couldn't sit still. The eldest prince leaned close to the second prince's ear and whispered.

Su Qingning looked at the two brothers, her eyes were full of doting, and guessed that at this moment, the two little guys were thinking about going to find their sister.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw the two brothers standing up and walking down quietly. The target was indeed the eldest princess.

The eldest princess sat beside Concubine Lu, just like the two brothers, she was also watching seriously.

She has also been to the New Year's Eve palace banquet in the past, she may be timid before, she has no intention of watching it at all, she just wants to hide or leave quickly, this year is the first time for her to watch it with her heart.

She knew that this palace banquet was organized by her mother and concubine, not for anything else, just for this hard work, she should take a serious look at it.

A rustling sound came from beside her, the eldest princess turned her head to look, and two identical faces appeared behind her...
