After being read, the plot collapsed and the protagonist went crazy!

"I used to do the same thing, always going there on the first day of the new year. I'm sure the Queen Mother is waiting for us now."

Although greeting each other on the first day of the new year is a tradition here and shows respect, Xia Zhiliao is worried about her health.

"Grandmother, why don't you send someone to the palace to tell them? Your health is the most important thing."

"It's okay, grandma is just too happy. I haven't celebrated the New Year in the capital for a long time."

Xia Zhiliao understood that she had lost her husband and her daughter was dead, and it was extremely sad for her to spend this family reunion festival alone.

This festival is not a festive one for her, but a sad one.

Her warm little hand pulled her big hand, "Grandma, from now on, someone will accompany you during the New Year, and it will always be this warm."

"Okay." Princess Yiyang pinched her little face, "Go see if your parents are ready. It will be noon when you return from the palace, and your parents still have to go to the general's mansion."

Here, a married daughter can only return to her parents' home on the second day of the Lunar New Year. For someone like Chang Yue, that would be a joke.

However, because their situations were different, they were not afraid of gossip from others, but Princess Yi Yang could not violate etiquette.

Soon Princess Yi Yang went to the palace with her daughter, son-in-law and a group of little ones.

Sure enough, the Queen Mother was waiting there early.

The palace maid was even waiting to greet them at the palace gate.

"Princess, the Queen Mother said that this year you will definitely come on the first morning as usual, so I won't be waiting here."

Princess Yiyang smiled and said, "It's still the sister-in-law who understands me."

Shou'an Palace was very lively. The concubines were inside and the princes were waiting outside.

Most of the time, concubines did not have to pay their respects to the empress dowager, mainly because the empress dowager found it troublesome and omitted the request.

The concubines were naturally happy, but they still had to come during the holidays.

This is also an opportunity for concubines to show their talents.

"But the imperial sister is here?" The Queen Mother said in a clear voice, "Quick, let her in, and you can go back if you have nothing else to do."

Xia Zhiliao curled his lips. They are cutting in line, right?

The princes are still waiting outside.

Many people walked out of the palace, and Xia Zhiliao didn't know many of them. Concubine Liang and Concubine Li even took the initiative to greet her.

Concubine Liang also warmly invited Xia Zhiliao to go and play.

She also gave Wen Chao a wink on purpose. Xia Zhiliao didn't look back and didn't know how Wen Chao responded.

In Shou'an Palace, Princess Yi Yang and her family paid respects to the Queen Mother.

The rewards were prepared long ago.

Chang Yue looked at the purse handed over to her, "Queen Mother, is there anything else for me?"

"Of course, in my eyes, you are also a child. I was supposed to marry you off, but since you came back after such a long time, of course I have to make it up to you."

"Thank you, Queen Mother." Chang Yue said with a smile.

Princess Yi Yang looked at the Queen Mother, and her irritable mood from last night seemed to be calmed down a little, but she could not forget it after all.

But when she looked at the happy family, she became hesitant.

After all, once you say it, everything in front of you may never appear again.

"Let's stay in the palace for dinner today, and ask the emperor to come too, so that our family can be together."

The Queen Mother held Princess Yiyang's hand, very kindly.

Princess Yiyang smiled and refused, "The children still have to go to the general's mansion. It's already my wife's permission to let a married girl stay with me. If I don't let her go today, I will be considered ignorant of the rules."

"That's true." The Queen Mother held her hand and didn't let go. "Royal sister, seeing your family reunited, I am really happy for you."

"I'm happy too." said Princess Yi Yang.

Not long after, Emperor Shunde arrived. He had been delayed in the morning because he had to deal with some urgent memorials.

After all, court affairs are the most important.

Xia Zhiliao was clear about this and he was a diligent emperor.

Although I know that emperors cannot be simply judged as good or bad, every person in power has blood on his body.

But when the blood belongs to one's own relative, it is difficult to respect and admire him from the bottom of one's heart.

Everyone paid their respects to Emperor Shunde again. Emperor Shunde smiled and said, "Look at me, I actually forgot to prepare New Year's money for Xiao Zhiliao."

"Your Majesty, please remember this and I will give it to you next time I see you."

"You are not willing to suffer any loss at all." Emperor Shunde said with a smile, "Su Dequan, go and get the things I have prepared. We can't let this little girl become a creditor."

"Yes, I will go right away, County Lady. The Emperor has prepared everything early in the morning, but he didn't expect you to come today."

Xia Zhiliao seemed very happy, and everyone laughed along with him.

Emperor Shunde's eyes fell on Xia Jinjun, "You have been in the capital for some time. What are your plans for the future?"

Xia Jinjun was still a little nervous. He glanced at Xia Zhiliao first, but didn't hear what she said, so he told the truth.

"Well, that's fine. You can give it a try first. After you pass the exam, I will entrust you with important tasks."

"There are so many talented people in my dynasty, I may not be admitted to high school."

"It's okay. You are Yue'er's husband, so you should have an official position. Even if you don't pass, I will make arrangements for you."

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Of course it's possible. I think Yue'er's husband is a good scholar."

"Your Majesty, thank you for your praise." Xia Jinjun was a little nervous.

[What is this? Make up for it? ]

Xia Zhiliao couldn't help but think about it, but the Xia family heard it and were very puzzled. What did the emperor need to compensate them for?

Unfortunately, the little girl didn’t say anything else.

"It's a pity that Yue'er has been gone for so many years. Otherwise, with the training of my aunt and General Chang, she would definitely be a female general who is as capable as any man."

Princess Yiyang laughed immediately, "Your Majesty, have you forgotten that Yue'er has never liked wielding swords or guns since she was a child? She likes embroidery and needlework. Every time she is asked to hold a sword, she cries."

Chang Yue smiled shyly. She was still a little afraid of knives and swords.

It's really strange to say.

"What female general? She can't be one. Besides, there are no women officials in our dynasty."

"My aunt was very impressive back then. I still remember her."

Princess Yiyang smiled, "I was forced to do so. If I hadn't stood up, the throne would have been taken away by someone else, and there wouldn't have been a wise ruler like today. Besides, I'm just a woman. After marrying Yue'er's father, I just wanted to live a stable life."

[Say this on New Year's Day? What does it mean? Is the emperor testing you? ]

Xia Jinjun lowered his head, but was a little surprised.

[Are you still knocking on us? Our family is in this state. We are no longer officials and have no ability. Why don’t you let us go? ]

Xia Jinjun looked at Xia Zhiliao secretly. What do you mean by "not letting go"?

What are you talking about, little girl?

"Your Majesty, fighting is not good. It is better to do business and make money. Being an official requires early morning court sessions. It is so tiring. Sleeping in the morning is so delicious."

Xia Zhiliao's joke made everyone laugh, and the three brothers of the Xia family also understood what their sister meant.

So, when Emperor Shunde asked the three of them, they knew how to answer.
