In the book, the princess of the fallen country saved the country by eating melons

"Okay, you are all my good warriors. It is not appropriate to drink tonight. Princess Zhaoyang and I will use tea instead of wine to toast all the soldiers and wish us a triumphant return and reunion with our families as soon as possible."

"Dry"

After Mo Jinyi finished speaking, he drank it all in front of everyone and smashed the bowl as a vow.

The soldiers were also full of passion, their voices were uniform and moving.

"Cheers, I wish us a great victory over Qi and a triumphant return."

Everyone picked up the bowl in their hands and drank it all, then threw it to the ground with a bang.

[You may be excited, but why would you throw away the thing you use to make a living?]

[Do you think I will have to eat it with my hands later?]

Mo Sheng looked at the broken pieces scattered on the ground with a look of heartache.

【It’s all money】

Mo Jinyi's mouth twitched. These bowls were originally burned and broken by the soldiers themselves.

There is no question of wasting money at all.

Seeing that everyone had finished drinking, Mo Jinyi prepared to sit down with Mo Sheng in his arms.

Suddenly, the soldiers picked up another bowl on the table and spoke to Mo Jinyi in unison.

"We wish your Majesty a happy birthday."

Mo Jinyi was so shocked that he couldn't recover and was at a loss as to what to do.

Li Desheng didn't tell him that there was this part on the scene.

[Ah, this part is finally here. I have been looking forward to it for a long time.]

When Mo Sheng was taking a walk with Nanny Liu today, he heard a few soldiers gathered together to discuss celebrating the Emperor's birthday.

She also silently looked forward to what expression her father would have when he received the blessings from these soldiers.

[Finally, I can see how my father reacts to the collective blessings of 100,000 soldiers]

Mo Sheng carefully observed Mo Jinyi, who was still a little dazed.

[Father is still so stunned sometimes]

Then Mo Sheng pulled Mo Jinyi's sleeve to signal him to come back to his senses, and spoke to Mo Jinyi incoherently.

"Hoo...hoo...sound...crying...la..."

【Father, happy birthday】

Mo Jinyi was awakened by the sound of Mo Sheng's milk snoring, and he collected his thoughts.

So many people sent him birthday wishes, even if he was an emperor, it was the first time.

I don't know why I feel a little upset.

Mo Jinyi glared at Li Desheng, indicating that he didn't even tell him such an important thing.

Li Desheng silently looked away, feeling a little guilty.

Isn’t this what they forbid you to tell your elders?

Mo Jinyi bent down, picked up the teacup, and said with a smile.

"You guys caught me off guard. Thank you all for your blessings. I am very happy to spend this special birthday with you all. I think I will remember this special birthday for the rest of my life."

"I will rejoice with you."

Mo Jinyi gestured for everyone to toast together and drank the cup of tea with everyone.

"Okay, everyone, let's eat quickly. It's winter now and the food on the table is getting cold."

Mo Jinyi finished talking to everyone with a smile, then sat down holding Mo Sheng.

When the soldiers saw Mo Jinyi sitting down, they also sat down one after another. They ate while chatting with their colleagues next to them and wished each other well.

Mo Sheng couldn't eat the food on the table, so after being fed with complementary food by Matron Liu, he sat quietly with Matron Liu and watched the lively crowd below.

[War is always the cruelest. What will happen here tomorrow?]

Mo Jinyi tightened his chopsticks while picking up the vegetables.

He pursed his lips and said nothing.

It is better to have war now than to lose the country later.

Everyone was having a good time at the Beiyun garrison, but the atmosphere at the Beiyun Palace was a little weird.

As in previous years, the Queen and her entourage invited the ladies of noble birth and their children in the capital to the palace for a banquet and to celebrate the New Year together.

Everyone seemed very happy on the surface, but upon closer inspection they all seemed a little sad.

The Queen looked at the somewhat sad Concubine Rong and comforted her gently.

"Empress Rong, don't worry so much. If you really miss Sheng'er, write a letter to His Majesty and ask about her recent situation."

"Your Majesty, you didn't even write a letter to ask about my safety during the New Year."

Concubine Rong smiled faintly at the Queen, shook her head, and spoke in a gentle tone.

“Your Highness, I am worried that Sheng’er is still so young and has been away from home for such a long time. I don’t know if she can adapt to the cold and harsh life in the army.

Moreover, this is her first Spring Festival since she came into the world, and I, as her mother, cannot spend it with her."

"I just feel a little regretful."

Yan Zigui's eyes unconsciously focused on Liu Qile who was standing next to the queen, and his eyes were filled with jealousy.

How could this person, a mere commoner, gain the favor of the queen in such a short time and become her personal maid to accompany her to banquets?

Yan Zigui rubbed the handkerchief in his hand, his eyes full of calculation.

This Liu Qile really deserves to die. She should have sent someone to kill her directly at that time. Why would she go to so much trouble now and try every possible means to plot against her?

She also heard the Queen's words to comfort Concubine Rong. If this wasn't a state banquet, she shouldn't lose her manners.

Otherwise, she would have to roll her eyes at Concubine Rong. Isn't she just a princess? Why worry about her so much?

Instead of worrying about her, you might as well worry about your unlucky Third Prince. At least he is still a prince.

Liu Qile was serving the queen dinner properly when suddenly she felt someone staring at her. She looked in the direction she instinctively directed.

She saw a person dressed in the attire of a county lady looking at her with jealousy and hatred, and she was a little confused.

Does she know this person and why is she looking at her like that.

Yan Zigui saw Liu Qile looking at her, and she shifted her gaze and looked elsewhere.

Seeing that the man no longer looked at her, Liu Qile ignored him.

She continued to serve food to the Queen. The Queen smiled at her gently and continued to watch the dance in the palace with Concubine Rong and the others, occasionally chatting with them.

"It feels like something is missing without your Majesty here this year."

Concubine Liang suddenly spoke at this time.

"What's missing? Is it that there is a strong sense of oppression?"

Concubine An came back to her senses from the food on the table and asked back in confusion.

Changle, who was sitting with her mother, nodded frantically when she heard her mother's question.

Yes, yes. When her father was around, she only felt the oppression of the emperor.

Since he is not here this year, Changle feels like he can eat more.

Even Emperor Zhaoyang's younger sister was taken away by her father. She hasn't seen the little one for a long time.

Mo Jinyi and Mo Sheng, who were being talked about by them, were not very happy at this moment.

Xiao Ba looked at the densely packed red dots on his backstage, with a rare serious expression on his face.

System: [My young master, you guessed right. The Qi State really took advantage of the Spring Festival to launch a sneak attack on Beiyun.]

Mo Sheng looked at his father who looked clueless.

[Father, you are still eating leisurely here, but people have come to your door]

Mo Jinyi, who was thought to be unaware by Mo Sheng, clenched his chopsticks at this moment, and a sneer that was expected appeared at the corner of his lips.

"Finally here, I've been waiting for a long time."
