My princess Lu Ziye

Chapter 1114 1123 Why are you suddenly curious about this?

In the 21st year of Yuankang, at the end of the year, as early as around the [-]th of the twelfth lunar month, an auspicious day was chosen for the holiday.

The new year is approaching, and the palace is very busy. On the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, there will be a sacrifice to the stove, and on the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, longevity lanterns, sky lanterns, and firecrackers will be set off.

On the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, Shangguan Yanwan went to Shangshu Mansion to watch the ceremony during the day, and was dragged by the National Teacher to swim around the lake at night, sending off a prosperous fireworks.

The next morning, before dawn, Yun Yifei left. At the end of the year, the emperor had to preside over the sacrifice in Taimiao, and all the deacons who held silk and held titles were replaced by princes and generals from the clan branch below the holy ancestor.

The universe is empty, and the years go to the dignified.

In the blink of an eye, it's New Year's Eve, and besides keeping watch for the New Year's Eve, the royal family also has an extra program to enjoy the opera.

Although Emperor Yuankang was not in good health, when the New Year came, he was boosted by the lively atmosphere and he was more energetic. Accompanied by Empress Chen and the concubines in the harem, he listened to a few plays.

The first play staged in the theater building of Jingpingzhai is called "Shengping Chusui", followed by "Fushou Yingnian". In addition to celebrating the new year, it is also to pray for the coming year.

Shangguan Yanwan originally planned to sit with the eldest princess to get closer to each other by taking advantage of the sharp eyesight of listening to the opera, and by the way, to find out what happened that year.

The closer to the end of the year, the more uneasy she felt, especially the Penglai Temple who was eyeing the emperor's eldest grandson in the belly of the princess.

As a result, the eldest princess didn't go at all.

After Shangguan Yanwan returned to Chonghua Palace, it was already [-]:[-] in the middle of the night. She originally wanted to go to Dongsheng Palace, but then she thought that Yun Yifei would definitely go back to the National Teacher's Mansion after she was busy. He wanted to accompany Mrs. Yun to watch the year.

Listening to the sound of firecrackers outside, she couldn't fall asleep for a long time. She found Jixiang Ruyi, and asked about the eldest princess. The two have been following the queen mother, so they should know something.

Jixiang explained to her that since the death of the son-in-law, the eldest princess has never attended such lively occasions, except for the family banquet on the first day of the new year.

When the Empress Dowager was still there, she was always afraid that she would be alone in Changkang Palace, and she would always call her to join in the fun when doing anything.

But since the queen mother left, the eldest princess has never been out of the gate of Changkang Palace. If there were no people waiting for her, she would have forgotten her existence in a trance.

Shangguan Yanwan faced the bronze mirror, and Ren Ruyi helped her take off the gold hairpin jewelry with deep eyes.

"You have been following the Queen Mother all the time. Do you know what happened back then? I heard that what happened to my aunt now was caused by the infanticide case back then."

When Ruyi heard about the "infanticide case", she shook her hand and looked at Jixiang before opening her mouth carefully.

"Princess, Your Majesty won't let people talk about this matter anymore. Why are you suddenly curious about this matter?"

It wasn't that she was suddenly curious, but that she was worried that the infanticide case would recur after five years. Now that so many people had died, if the root cause was not found out as soon as possible, more women and children might be killed.

This incident seems to have become her heart disease, otherwise she wouldn't have been worried about the New Year's Eve all day, and even sent all five Winged Flying Snakes to the Prince's Mansion, and followed them in and out, just for fear of any accidents.

Shangguan Yanwan sighed quietly, persuasively.

"I know my father won't let me mention it again, it's okay, just tell me what you know, and it won't spread."
