Loyal heart travels a long way

It was Haishi when the emperor came.

Normally, the children should be going to bed at this time, but they didn't sleep today.

There is a habit of keeping the year old in the capital, and it must be lying down after the child's time.

The emperor was really visiting in private, not to mention dragon pattern clothes, not even the Peacock Ling cloak, only a deep purple robe with a stone blue cloak on top.The outer edge of the cloak is trimmed with rabbit fur, which is not very luxurious, but it is also considered exquisite.

Chu Dancheng glanced at it, and secretly confirmed in his heart that he finally knew why Gu Zhiyao liked bright red, purple and furry clothes all day long, and the An family all liked this.Whether it's An Zifeng or An Zimu, they both like this one.

It would not be appropriate to go through more red tape for private visits in microservices, but the Chu family is still very polite to the emperor. After all, they are the Ninth Five-Year Emperor, so they can't be as close as they are to Gu Zhiyao.

The emperor also knew this very well, he didn't pursue other people's respect and estrangement towards him, just hearing Gu Zhiyao affectionately call his uncle was like a spring breeze blowing on his face.

"Are you Yao'er's uncle?" Just after hearing Gu Zhiyao's greeting, a child came up to An Zimu and hugged his thigh.An Zimu looked down. It was a five-year-old girl, not from Chu Qingfeng's family. She had seen the children of Chu Qingfeng's family before.

"Yes," the emperor nodded, "I am Yao'er's uncle, what should you call me?"

Feng Jinian, who originally wanted to stop his own child and remind her not to offend the holy driver, was secretly relieved to see An Zimu like this, and waited and watched the development of the situation.

"Yao'er is Niannian's uncle," Chu Niannian lowered his head and thought about it like a young adult, "You are Niannian's uncle, should Niannian be called your uncle?"

"Pfft——" Zhu Chengdong sprayed a sip of tea on the ground, making himself blush, while Ying Er twitched at the corner of his mouth, and reached out to knock Zhu Chengdong on the back.

Zhu Chengdong finally got his breath out for a long time, and said, "What uncle, every year you call people like you to stutter."

Chu Niannian didn't see his relatives on weekdays, so naturally he wouldn't make seniority, not only Zhu Chengdong choked on water, but Chu Mingyue and Gu Zhiyao were already laughing so hard that they covered their stomachs and ouched.

Children at this age are the most innocent and cute, and they want to pretend to be adults, and they are so innocent, An Zimu pinched Chu Niannian's face solemnly: "You have to call me uncle. Why do you call me uncle Yao'er and not aunt? "

Chu Niannian wrinkled his nose, shook his head and said, "Second Uncle won't let me, and I will be threatened by Second Uncle if I call Aunt Yao'er."

Gu Zhiyao is a man, he himself doesn't care much about the names of the children, but Chu Dancheng does.There is nothing wrong with calling yourself uncle, but if you call Yao'er's aunt, it's like Yao'er has shortened himself out of thin air. His little garlic seedling is the most proud, and he still wants the children to call Gu Zhiyao their uncle.

Chu Mu and Chu Ji are boys, and they don't have much experience in this aspect. They call their little uncle easily, but Chu Ming and Chu Yue are well-behaved. They call them whatever Chu Dancheng says. Very much, I feel that Gu Zhiyao is Chu Dancheng's daughter-in-law, so he should be called aunt, after all, that's what all the children on the grassland are called.

Chu Niannian felt that it was inappropriate to call him little uncle, and Chu Dancheng wanted to get to know the kid just as well. In the end, Chu Niannian could only settle for the next best thing, and called Yao'er just like Chu Dancheng.

An Zimu was shocked when he heard Chu Niannian suing his second uncle about the evil, saying that he was not allowed to call Yao'er Auntie.

Knowing that Chu Dancheng and Gu Zhiyao are deeply in love, but never thought that after all these years, Chu Dancheng can still protect Gu Zhiyao like this.

Although he was not willing to entrust Gu Zhiyao to Chu Dancheng, he seemed satisfied now. His nephew was really more comfortable than his emperor.

Go see Zhu Chengdong and Ying Er again...

I know what kind of temper Ying Er has, it is a piece of wood, even if he knows that he is the son of the old emperor, he still looks like an ancient well, but now he is with Zhu Chengdong, but he is tainted with fireworks and has a human touch.

It's all good, the children have companions, only I am alone.

An Zimu didn't know why he insisted on coming together to celebrate the New Year, as there are few families in the family.Year.Sending children to a small gathering to talk about family affection, each has its own sweetheart, but I want to see these myself, it is really a bleak evening scene.

But Gu Zhiyao and Ying Er are doing well, so he is relieved.

The New Year's Eve dinner has been waiting for the emperor to come. Now that the emperor is here, there is no delay. The cups, dishes and chopsticks are quickly set up, and the hot and cold dishes are served one by one.

Chu Lin and Zhu Zhifu looked at each other, moved slightly out of the way, and nodded slightly to the emperor.

They can't open their mouths to call the emperor, but the emperor should go to the table first.

The emperor understood what the two men meant, and he didn't make any excuses. He lifted the hem of his robe and went to the table, but he didn't sit at the main seat, but sat at the lower left hand of the main seat, and nodded: "I will go first." table."

There was a slight difference among the crowd, the emperor should naturally take the lead, but An Zimu's attitude made it clear that today he should not be treated as the emperor, but treated as Gu Zhiyao's uncle.

Now that the emperor is firmly seated, it is not easy to ask him to stand up and change seats. Zhu Zhifu had to sit in the main seat, and Chu Lin sat on Zhu Chengdong's right hand.

The New Year's Eve dinner is here.

Seeing that Gu Zhiyao and Ying Er were having a good time, An Zimu was in a good mood, so he drank a few more glasses.Before Zhu Zhifu resigned, he seldom entertained and drank, and he was so drunk that he got drunk after a few drinks. In the end, Chu Lin looked helplessly at her husband's arm hanging on the emperor's shoulder and called him brother and brother.

Anyway, I'm quite happy to see the emperor like that, let them go.

Festival members, New Year's Eve is really a good day.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, the emperor was about to go back. Gu Zhiyao and Chu Dancheng came out to see him off. When they reached the door, An Zimu told them not to see him off again. Let Eunuch Qian take care of you, on the first day of tomorrow, my brother and I will kowtow to uncle you."

"I don't need you," An Zimu snapped at him, "If you wake up early, maybe I haven't woken up yet."

"Hey, Uncle, why do you call yourself Zhen?" Gu Zhiyao clapped his hands and laughed for a long time, then stretched out his hands and begged for nothing: "You should be punished, give me the lucky money."

An Zimu was helpless, he was used to talking in the palace all day long, and he called himself "Zhen" without saying anything, and he had made a promise in advance that today there would be no false courtesy for monarchs and ministers.

But it was a punishment, An Zimu shook his head, and asked Eunuch Qian to put the red envelope he had prepared long ago into Gu Zhiyao's hand.

Gu Zhiyao opened the red envelope to see, inside were several land deeds and opened several shops, the names of Gu Zhiyao and Chu Dancheng were used.

"That's good." Gu Zhiyao hugged An Zimu, "The red envelope given by uncle is too big."

An Zimu was stunned for a moment, then he also laughed.

Of course Gu Zhiyao didn't hold on to An Zimu all the time, because Chu Dancheng had already pulled Gu Zhiyao back by his collar in displeasure, and wanted to add a grandiose sentence: "Don't hit uncle."

Originally, he wanted to say something to Chu Dancheng, but when he heard that Chu Dancheng also called him uncle, An Zimu suddenly felt happy for some reason.

He waved his hand and let Eunuch Qian help him out the door.

Behind him, Gu Zhiyao was vaguely heard angrily saying: "Brother, you are becoming more and more narrow-minded."

What Chu Dancheng said he couldn't hear clearly, in short, he would definitely not make Yao'er unhappy.

An Zimu was in a light mood, feeling as if he was young again.

This New Year's Eve was not bad, and everything went well. Dazhou is now in the state of Yongtai, Haiyan and Heqing. Even if he can't be an emperor through the ages, he can be regarded as an emperor with a clear heart.

It would be even better if the Queen and Concubine Rui could get closer to him and stop always respecting each other like a Pentax.

After leaving the gate of Fuyuan, it was time to get into the sedan chair, but An Zimu wondered if he had drunk a little too much, otherwise when he came, there was clearly only one sedan chair, how could there be three?

He squinted his eyes and looked carefully, and found that there were indeed three sedan chairs, and he was not dazzled by himself, so he lowered his head and asked Eunuch Qian, "Whose sedan chairs are those?"

Before Eunuch Qian could reply, the curtains of the other two sedan chairs were lifted by the palace servants, and the people inside stood up.

Oh, it turned out to be the phoenix chariot of the empress and concubine Rui.

"All blessings, Your Majesty." The Empress and Concubine Rui saluted the Emperor, and they looked at each other. Finally, the Empress said: "The Emperor is visiting late at night, and the two concubines thought that the Emperor would probably drink alcohol. It was cold and slippery, so they came out to meet him." gone."

Hey, whatever you want.

An Zimu felt that this New Year's Eve was really, really wonderful!

"Hmm." It's not good to be too happy, An Zimu put his fist to his mouth and cleared his throat, "Thank you, it's really cold... Or, why don't you take the same sedan chair with me? The place is big, smoked in a cage It must be Chen Xiang, both the Empress and Concubine Rui must like it."

The queen nodded, "Yes, will it be too tiring for the palace servants?"

Concubine Rui also continued: "Your Majesty, you should sprinkle a handful of sweet-scented osmanthus flowers in the smoked cage. It's sweeter, it smells nice."

After the two finished speaking, they looked at each other again and burst out laughing.

Concubine Rui said, "My sister is so kind."

At this time, the queen was no longer the usual motherly appearance, but tilted her head and smiled happily: "I also like osmanthus."

Eunuch Qian looked very winkingly, bowed his body and said: "Don't be tired, this old servant will borrow a carriage from Fu Yuan, it's big and spacious."

"Exactly," An Zimu nodded, and said solemnly: "Traveling in the same sedan chair is indeed tiring for the palace people. Does aloe and sweet-scented osmanthus smell good? I haven't smelled it yet."

Naturally it smells good.

When the emperor was sitting in the carriage, and the empress and concubine Rui were sitting on his left and right sides, An Zimu admired this fragrant prescription very much in his heart.

Agarwood with sweet-scented osmanthus is not only a sweet fragrance, but also a feeling of success in everything.
