Antique food: The general dotes on his lucky wife

Lin Changqing came back from the battlefield and rested at home for three full days, but occasionally people would still come to him to talk about business, and he was not completely free.

But after three days passed, he couldn't even stay at home.

Every day I get up early in the morning and go out after breakfast, and don’t come back until dark at night.

But it was also because it was the Chinese New Year, and all the officials had a holiday, so they only had to go to the palace to attend the palace banquet on New Year's Eve.

Chen Xi wanted to take Xiao Yaoyao into the palace this year. Although she was very reluctant, she couldn't refuse.

On New Year's Eve, she dressed all three of their family in new clothes. Lin Changqing was dressed in black, but the lining was red, the belt was red, and even the headscarf that tied his hair was red. She and her daughter were dressed in red, with only the belt being black, and their hair also tied with red headbands. The family of three stood together, and it was obvious at a glance that they were wearing parent-child attire.

When the three of them got off the carriage at the palace gate, they met other officials and their families, and everyone focused their attention on them at the same time.

Everyone secretly exclaimed in their hearts, God is really partial. The three members of this family are all immortals, and they are not just vases with their looks. Lin Changqing has great military achievements, and the legendary life of Princess Huaishan is really enviable!

From their eyes, Chen Xi knew that their outfits today must be stunning, and he couldn't help but feel very happy, so he smiled even brighter.

After entering the palace, Chen Xi and her daughter separated from Lin Changqing. The mother and daughter went to the harem to meet the queen. They also met Li Guifei. Looking at Li Guifei's sneering face, Chen Xi's good mood was shattered. Total destruction.

"Hey, look at how our Princess Huaishan and her children are dressed. They look like they have stepped down from the prime of life! How festive!"

The second princess sat behind Concubine Li and said this immediately after Chen Xi sat down.

Hearing that there was no malice in the second prince's words, Chen Xi just nodded and smiled at her.

The second princess couldn't help but feel relieved when she looked at Chen Xi, who didn't seem to be holding a grudge.

Speaking of which, she and her husband were very angry when they found out about the stupid thing Li Guifei had done some time ago.

They also believed like the emperor that the second prince was trying to win over Lin Changqing, so he rewarded Chen Xi with two nuns to gain favor with him. Who knew that he would end up causing two disasters!

Later, in order to protect the face of the second prince, the emperor sent Mrs. Li Guogong to apologize to Chen Xi. As a result, Mrs. Li Guogong was even more stupid and completely offended Chen Xi in order to gain a breath!

Although the matter was settled in the end, the second prince and the second prince's concubine were still somewhat uneasy, fearing that Lin Changqing would completely turn against them because of this incident, which would cause a fatal blow to their competition for that position!

The second prince's concubine represents the second prince. Since the emperor wants to save the second prince's face, the second prince's concubine cannot go to apologize to Chen Xi openly. She originally planned to take advantage of such an occasion to bring this matter to Chen Xi after meeting her. , so after a palace banquet, everyone could see that the second prince's attitude towards Princess Huaishan seemed to have changed a lot from before.

So throughout the New Year, rumors spread that the second prince had a close relationship with Lin Changqing, and that Lin Changqing was a loyal supporter of the second prince.

It was not until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month that Chen Xi could finally "thank guests behind closed doors" again and have a good rest.

But when he heard that Lin Changning was coming, Chen Xi naturally couldn't avoid seeing her. But as soon as he saw Lin Changning, he knew from the look on her face that she was in a good mood recently.

"Has the wedding date been set?"

"It's set, it's set on the eighth day of February."

"It's very good. Come, take a look at the makeup I prepared for you. Do you like it?"

Chen Xi didn't think there was anything wrong with letting Lin Changning see it in advance. She was well prepared anyway.

Sure enough, Lin Changning looked at the long row of things and was stunned: "Sister-in-law, you have prepared too much!"

"Not much, I prepared these for you, your elder brother has other preparations!"

"No, these are enough, no, these are too many, leave some for Yaoyao!"

Chen Xi laughed: "Yao Yao is so young. She has plenty of time to prepare for her future. Take a look at this set of pearl jewelry. Do you like it?"

The box is covered with red velvet, and there are several pieces of pearl jewelry placed on the velvet. There are six pearl hairpins. The pearls on the hairpins are each as big as a thumb, round and plump. There are also a bunch of pearl earrings, and the earrings are There are several pearls strung together from small to large, and there is also a string of 108 pearl necklaces. Although the pearls are only the size of a little finger, they are full and bright in color.

In addition, there are several sets of gold heads and faces, and gem heads and faces, all of which are precious and beautiful.

Lin Changning looked at these things and sighed: "Sister-in-law, these are too expensive!"

"Be good, as long as you like it, I have also prepared some good things for you, but these good things can only be given to you in private and will not be included in the gift list. Come and take a look!"

Seeing Chen Xi's appearance, Lin Changning couldn't help but be interested, but when he saw what Chen Xi picked up, his face immediately turned red!

"Sister-in-law, this..."

Chen Xi smiled ambiguously: "These clothes are all made by me. I guarantee that you will be fascinated by Tan Yuxuan! But you have to remember that you can't wear them all the time. Wear them once in a while to keep him satisfied. So fresh!”

Lin Changning was almost ashamed to death by Chen Xi's words, but she also knew that this was her sister-in-law's unreserved care for her, so she put it all away shyly.

Lin Changning was tired of Chen Xi staying there all day long. He always felt that he had endless things to say and ask for advice.

It wasn't until I left in the evening that I suddenly remembered what I had come to do today.

"Sister-in-law, Tan Yuxuan wrote to me and said that the second prince saw him entertaining friends at a restaurant and took the initiative to talk to him. He also said that he wanted to attend our wedding. He had no choice but to agree at that time, so he had to agree. He has already written The letter has been told to my eldest brother, but I still want me to come over and tell you and my eldest brother what to do."

Chen Xi nodded: "Okay, I will ask your eldest brother later and ask your eldest brother to write a letter to Tan Yuxuan. You don't have to worry about these things. Just wait until you are a beautiful bride!"

Lin Changning then left with a smile.

When Lin Changqing came back in the evening, Chen Xi told him about the matter. As expected, Lin Changqing already had a countermeasure.

"If he is willing to come over and give gifts, let him give them. What's wrong with earning an extra gift!"

Chen Xi asked: "Is the second prince determined to win you over?"

Lin Changqing chuckled: "He noticed that I ignored him and became a little anxious!"

Chen Xi immediately held his hand: "What should I do!"

Lin Changqing held her back and comforted her: "Don't be afraid. If I suddenly get close to him, he will be even more afraid. The current situation can actually stabilize him!"

An idea flashed in Chen Xi's mind: "Did something happen?"

Lin Changqing was silent for a long time, then approached her and whispered: "The New Year has just passed, and the emperor is sick!"
