Abandoning concubines and raising children to seize the throne

The next day.

Early in the morning, the court officials received the news and ordered the people in the city to rush to the imperial city at 10:00 p.m. so that the emperor could celebrate the New Year with the people.

In the past, the emperor would celebrate the New Year with the people, but they had never been allowed to go to the imperial city.

The imperial palace was an important place and no outsider was allowed to approach it. Even taking a look from afar was punishable by death. Upon hearing the news, everyone was surprised and expectant.

In the blink of an eye, it was already the hour of Xu. All the ministers had been welcomed into the palace for a banquet, and outside the palace gate was a sea of ​​people.

Seeing the person showing off by lighting the torch, everyone couldn't help but whisper.

"It's so cold, what are we doing here?"

"Yeah, it's pitch black. Are we going to listen to those officials toasting each other in there?"

"Stop talking nonsense. Since we were asked to come, let's do it. The Queen gave us a lot of rice, flour, fruits and vegetables half a month ago. It's only right that we have to endure the cold."

"That's right. People should have a little conscience. Where else can you eat such delicious fruits and fresh vegetables in this season? Even if I have to endure the cold for the Queen, I will accept it."

"Yes, I am not afraid of the cold either. Without the emperor's great grace, we wouldn't be living the good life we ​​have today."

As everyone was talking at once, a circle of colorful lights suddenly lit up in the imperial city. The entire imperial city was filled with cherry tomato-sized lights. The colors kept changing, like a floating rainbow in the darkness, and everyone suddenly shut up.

“Oh, it’s so beautiful!”

"What kind of light is this? How can it change colors?"

Before he finished his words, a muffled sound was heard in the imperial city. A bright light rushed into the dark night sky, quickly spreading out and turning into the shape of countless gold ingots. The golden gold ingots stayed in the air for a moment, and then fell down like a meteor.

As everyone was stunned, another golden dragon flew into the sky, with its fangs bared and its eyes wide open. Its soaring posture was majestic and majestic, like a real dragon descending into the world. The people were shocked. Some people could not bear the pressure and knelt down spontaneously, shouting "Long live the dragon!" For a moment, the cheers were like thunder and waves, resounding throughout the capital!

Next came the fiery red phoenix, the colorful peonies, the blooming golden chrysanthemums, and the fluttering butterflies, all in various shapes and lifelike.

Sometimes it looks like a blooming tree, sometimes it looks like a dancing rainbow. Such a huge fireworks show is a unique visual feast.

Everyone became excited unconsciously. Some jumped high, trying to see more clearly. Some clapped their hands vigorously, it was so beautiful. Some also made wishes loudly to the sky, hoping that there would be a good harvest and peace in the world next year.

All the court officials looked at the sky in amazement. This was indeed an unforgettable New Year!

The fireworks lasted for a full hour, and Yin Qingxuan had people distribute dumplings for the family reunion. Everyone watched with great joy and ate with great satisfaction, and were reluctant to leave for a long time.

At the palace banquet, Ye Jingyu was already a little drunk. He flicked his long sleeves and said with a smile, "It's almost midnight, and the ministers should go home and reunite. The palace banquet will end here."

They were so busy watching the fireworks that they had barely touched the food and wine on the table. Many of the dishes were new to them compared to previous palace banquets. All the ministers stared at the dishes and no one moved.

At this time, a weak voice asked: "Your Majesty, can you take the food back?"

Ye Jing Yulang laughed, stood up and said, "It's a good thing to know how to work hard and not waste. I will reward you with all the wine and food today!"

Yin Qingxuan also smiled.

"Every grain of rice on the plate is hard-earned. We really shouldn't waste it. Someone, quickly prepare lunch boxes for the adults."

The ministers were overjoyed and returned home with a full load before that day to celebrate the New Year.

Jinwu Palace.

Yin Qingxuan snuggled up to Ye Jingyu, her tone gentle.

"It's midnight, and it's a new beginning."

"Yes, in a few months, my little princess will be born. Xuan'er, thank you for your hard work in taking care of our baby."

Xiao Nanfeng ran out of the room holding a small lantern and said expectantly, "Zhao'er is so lonely. Can mother give Zhao'er more brothers and sisters?"

Yin Qingxuan reached out, picked up her son, and kissed his warm little face.

"One sister is enough. I will feel relieved if you take care of me."

Ye Jingyu encouraged him, "I agree with Zhao'er. We must have at least seven or eight children so that the harem will be lively."

Yin Qingxuan spat at him.

"If you want to give birth, do it yourself."

Ye Jingyu coughed dryly.

"I want to replace Xuan'er, but I don't have the ability, so I can only sigh in despair."

Little Nanfeng didn't understand, and asked with her little face raised, "Father is so powerful, why can't he give birth to a brother and sister?"

Yin Qingxuan couldn't help but laugh so hard that she shook.

"Maybe... you can ask your father to give it a try?"

Ye Jingyu's face turned slightly red and he reached out to pat Yin Qingxuan's buttocks.

Yin Qingxuan had foresight and with a tap of her toes, she jumped onto the roof holding her son.

Ye Jingyu immediately started to practice his skills and chased after the mother and daughter.

While others were staying up all night in their rooms, the young couple were playing a game of cat and mouse in the palace.

Ye Haitang was sighing in the room. When she saw two figures flying, she immediately pulled Yunfeng out and shouted excitedly, "Are there assassins? Come on, follow me to find Commander Yin!"
