Chapter 723 Marriage 7
At supper, the two children sat beside the emperor.

"Grandfather, I want to eat that." Jin Yan pointed to the exquisitely crafted food not far away.

The emperor winked at the court lady beside him, and the court lady knew how to put the vegetables directly into Jin Yan's bowl.

Jin Yan gave the maid a big smile.

"Thank you sister."

This made the little maid's cheeks flush, and she quickly shook her head.

"Young grandson can't bear to do this, this is what slaves should do."

"My mother said that people who help themselves should be thanked, so this is what they should be."

The emperor listened to Jin Yan's words, and his eyes fell on Yue Fude, with admiration in his eyes.

The little palace maid was at a loss by what he said, and it was Xia Fengpiao who waved her hand, which made her let go of the anxiety in her heart.

So as long as the two children wanted something to eat, the little maid would put it in the bowl for them as quickly as possible.

Xia Fengpiao and the others did not leave the palace that night, the emperor arranged for them to live in the palace of Xia Fengpiao's mother, and the two children were also with the emperor.

At night, Xia Fengpiao took Yuefu to sit on the roof of the palace.

Beijing celebrates New Year's Eve every year.Rich people will set off some fireworks and firecrackers. Although they are not as beautiful as modern ones, they are still a novelty.

The two sat on the roof, looking at the brightly lit direction not far away.

Xia Fengpiao put his arms around Yuefu's waist with one hand, and played with Yuefu's handle with the other.

"Piao Piao, how did you get here when you were young?" Yue Fu asked softly.

"When I was six or seven years old, something happened in the palace. The emperor's uncle tried to usurp the throne, and the queen mother passed away, so I was taken away by the master. The father was still sad for a long time because of this. You know why, in the palace Didn't you see my other brothers?" Xia Fengpiao asked, looking at the little woman in his arms.

"Why?" Yuefu asked.

"That's because the emperor scattered them all over the country, and only gave them a house and a small amount of money, in order to prevent us from repeating the same mistakes and fighting for the throne again."

"Don't your father miss his children?" Yuefu raised her head and asked.

"Of course I think about it. They will go back to the palace once a year to reunite with their father, and his father will give him something as compensation." Xia Fengpiao said in a calm tone.

"Don't they feel resentful because of this?"

"At the beginning, they were very dissatisfied and resisted, but the emperor ignored it and insisted on doing so. Over time, they got used to the life of ordinary people, and slowly let go of those grievances."

"Are all your brothers reduced to paupers?"

"No, they are all princes of a city, but they are living happily now. I guess they will show up on our wedding day." Xia Fengpiao said.

"By the way, how many brothers do you have?" Yuefu asked the answer she wanted to know.

"I'm the boss. I have four younger brothers and two younger sisters." Xia Fengpiao said.

"Well, it's not too much. Where's your sister?" Yuefu asked.

"I'm married, and I live in another city, and I live very peacefully." Xia Feng said with a hint of guilt in his tone.

If it wasn't for him, his younger siblings wouldn't have left the capital because of this. This is what he owes them.

"Piao Piao, don't be sad, your father did this because he didn't want you two to fight each other, after all, you are brothers, if you really fight to the death, the saddest one will be your father," Yue Fu comforted softly. road.
