The world of rebirth

The next day is New Year's Eve, and Daxia follows the Tang system to give "civil servants" a seven-day holiday.But from this day onwards, the palace has been extremely busy, Wenzhen had to get up before Yinshi arrived, burn incense and salute everywhere in the palace, and invite all gods and Buddhas to come to the palace to celebrate the new year.As the head of the family, he was busy, so the whole palace would naturally revolve around him.

Firecrackers were set off in the palace, and the crackling sound was so loud that even shouting loudly could not be heard clearly from a distance.

It was rare for Hong Xi not to get close to Wen Zhen to show his presence. He swung his attendant back and stuck to Hong Ming's side, and said in a low voice, "Brother Prince, are you interested in punishing that arrogant brat?"

No need to say who that kid is.Hong Ming remained calm, "What do you want to do, don't act recklessly."

"Brother Prince, don't you want to teach him a lesson? Don't you hate that kid too?" Hong Xi was a little anxious, "They came up with a brilliant plan, this time they can definitely give him some trouble."

Hong Ming raised his brows, and said kindly, "Don't keep fussing about him, father thinks highly of him!"

His words were like adding fuel to the fire, Hong Xi said sourly, "Father treats him better than us, if you don't care about it, I'm afraid that kid will climb on top of us one day."

Hong Ming twitched the corner of his mouth, but did not agree to him.At first glance, this kid is looking for himself to take the lead to deal with his father, why should he be the one who stands out.

Father had already said the reason for treating that person differently. If it wasn't for his status as a heaven worshiper, how could he have endured it all the time, not even doing a little trick. Since Hongxi wanted to offend him, let the two Wouldn't it be better to pinch the person you hate the most.

"I think he looks pretty good, don't get involved with Gu in what you are going to do!" After Hong Ming finished speaking, he raised his head and strode away.

After all, Hong Xi was still too young to be able to hide his emotions and anger, and his complexion became extremely ugly.He is confident that the crown prince hates that kid, why is he unwilling to take revenge?

Although the yamen was closed on New Year's Eve, the emperor, including civil and military officials, still had nothing to do.

Ning Yunjin is now considered half a son and has a title of honor. This year, he unexpectedly got the qualification to give a banquet. Before noon, he followed his grandfather and father to the Palace of Preserving Harmony.

The three generations of the Ning family all appeared at the banquet, and the appearance of the old and the young was even more outstanding, which attracted everyone's attention. Many foreign ministers couldn't help but whispered to each other and began to inquire about their origins.

It was the first time in Ning Yunjin's life to participate in this kind of banquet held every year in the Palace of Preserving Harmony, so he appropriately maintained the curiosity that a child should have.

Ning Taoxu saw that his eyes were all on those ministers from foreign feudal vassals, thinking that he was curious about the appearance of foreigners, so he explained, "The ones sitting over there are all ministers from foreign feudal vassals, so you can't stare at them when you get close. Look at other people's faces."

"Grandson knows, grandpa, don't worry!" Ning Yunjin would not be rude in such a big scene, he looked at those people just to see their attitude towards Daxia at this time.

The definition of the so-called foreign vassals in Daxia includes two parts, one part is the Fengwu tribe in the Xinjiang Hui, Tibet, Qinghai and Hulun Buir Grasslands, which is clearly a territory under the rule of Daxia but governed by the local self-government; the other part It is North Korea, Vietnam, Burma, Ryukyu, Luzon and other vassal countries. Although they regard Daxia as the suzerain state, Daxia also regards Daxia as a guest of honor.

There are several other people in the main hall who are obviously Westerners. Half of them are dressed in missionary clothes. Ning Yunjin is curious to see them. He really didn't know that Wen Zhen had been interested in Western learning so early, so he took them Introduced to the court.

Seeing that his eyes kept falling on those people, Ning Jingxian said in a low voice, "They are missionaries from Portugal, Spain, and Italy, and nobles from England and Russia. Your Majesty is very interested in some of their theories. and left them all behind."

Ning Yunjin nodded, seeing a little eunuch coming to guide them to a seat, he stopped talking.

Given the current status of the Ning family, the seats assigned to them are quite high. Above them is the Zuo Shi family, and below them is the seat of the Ministry of War. They are all acquaintances, and they are very happy.

Zuo Shi's family has obviously started cultivating heirs, and today they brought out the most promising Zuo Shicheng among the juniors to meet the world.However, compared to Ning Yunjin who had only one seat, he could only stand aside to serve the aged Zuo Shiheng.

Although due to the death of Zuo Shi Jinghui, the relationship between the two families is not as close as before, but Ning Yunjin is still the grandson of Zuo Shi Pinglin, so naturally he wants to come forward to congratulate him.

After the two families met each other, Zuo Shicheng asked the elders for instructions, "Grandpa, grandson wants to have a private conversation with my cousin, okay?"

Zuo Shiheng stroked his beard, and responded with a smile, "This child, you two see each other in the study every day, so what else can you whisper."

Ning Taoxu laughed, "Doesn't this mean that it's a blood relationship after all, two children kiss!"

Kiss a fart.Ning Yunjin secretly swears, this cousin follows the prince's footsteps closely, and has been keeping a respectful distance from him in the study room, wishing he had never seen him before, what can they talk about?

Out of curiosity, he followed Zuo Shicheng to the side.

Zuo Shicheng looked around and no one was paying attention, so he whispered in his ear, "You have offended the Second Prince and the others so badly, you should be more careful recently!"

"Did the second prince instigate that incident yesterday?" Ning Yunjin asked curiously.

Zuo Shicheng shook his head, "That's not true, it was chosen by those few clan children, and the second prince was just supporting them. But you made them unable to step down yesterday, and made Ming Langqing cry again. If the second prince doesn't look for him Back to face..."

Ning Yunjin smiled, expressing his understanding.

Zuo Shicheng saw that he didn't care, so he pulled him, "Don't take it to heart, the second prince has already sent a message to show you."

"Understood, my cousin loves Yunjin." Ning Yunjin clasped his fist at him and thanked him earnestly.

Zuo Shicheng didn't like this gift, and his expression was a bit weird, "It was His Royal Highness who asked me to tell you."

"Then I have to thank my cousin even more. If it weren't for your kind words, the crown prince would never take my matter to heart!" Ning Yunjin said sincerely.

Are you stupid or stupid!Looking at his expression, Zuo Shicheng really didn't know if he was sarcastic on purpose, but anyway, he had brought his words with him, so if anything happened, he would be kind and righteous.

Not long after the two returned to their seats, the sound of drum music started, and then Wen Zhen appeared with the prince and the second prince.After he arrived, the Yan ceremony, playing music, serving tea, entering the rank, drinking and so on began in sequence.

After a lot of tossing and finally looking forward to the food, Ning Yunjin secretly observed the father and son three people on the stage. Wen Zhen looked energetic and did not see the sleepiness of yesterday, while the prince had a warm smile like a spring breeze, He couldn't see his usual arrogance at all. As for the second prince Xiaodouding, he looked cute and cute. He looked very simple and honest. Who would have thought that this child was only six years old and already a big kid who would be able to plot tricks.

He clicked his tongue in amazement, this is really not a family that does not enter the house!

A guy who knew the tricks himself was completely unconscious watching the excitement, eating while watching the show.To be honest, the banquet is not delicious. These dishes in the winter have been served long ago, and after waiting for so long, they have already cooled down. However, the northerners are heavy with oil, and most of the dishes are big fish and meat. Looking at the condensation on the top I have no appetite for oil.

Ning Yunjin, who is very experienced, came here after ordering some snacks, so he just stretched out a few chopsticks.

He didn't find it strange that the prince's sudden show of favor was nothing more than wanting to reap the benefits of the fisherman, but he didn't know how the second prince would make people do it.

The banquet in the palace did not last long. After the prepared music and dance, acrobatics and all kinds of operas were performed one by one, it meant that the banquet was over. All the civil and military officials and the ministers of the foreign vassal thanked each other, and then they could go back to their respective homes and prepare to eat. It's evening family dinner.

This year is a rare Spring Festival for the Ning family to reunite with the whole family. The house is very lively, with lanterns and festoons everywhere and happy couplets pasted up.The men in the family first went to the ancestral hall to hold a grand ancestor worship ceremony under the leadership of Ning Taoxu, and when the ceremony was over, it was time for dinner.

The population of the Ning family is too small, and there are only five males from the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren.They are all close relatives and don't talk about so many rules. In order to appear more lively, the old lady and Peihua sat at the table with a little bit of Yunxiang.

Seeing that his family member Ning Taoxu was in a good mood, he said with joy, "Safety and health are blessings, and finally the family is reunited. Yunting's needs are gone, and he will be working in the next year. Our family will be better and better in the future." good!"

Everyone at the table except Ning Yunxiang was given a glass of wine. As soon as the old man finished speaking, they all said auspicious words and drank the wine in one gulp, hoping for a good omen in the coming year.

On the first day of the 15th year of Tianshou, Ning Taoxu and Ning Jingxian, two errands, rushed to the square of the Hall of Supreme Harmony early in the morning to pay New Year greetings to the emperor. Due to well-known reasons, there was no luncheon this year. Home.By the time the two of them arrived home, guests had already come to pay New Year's greetings one after another.

Ning Yunjin's favorite time of year is this time, but this year he didn't follow his father, but stuck to his grandfather.Often a few words of flattery can be exchanged for a big red envelope, and sometimes when you make people happy, you will throw yourself a finger or jade pendant if you miss a hand.

Even if most of these people who came in the first year of junior high school were subordinate officials of the Ning family and his son, especially those who could become the priests of the ancestral temple, they were more or less oily, and the things they brought with them would not be ordinary, and they were richer than those Beijing officials. Too much, Ning Yunjin collected a box of things and red envelopes in just half a day, making him laugh from ear to ear.

When Ning Yunting came to look for him, he saw Ning Yunjin counting the things in the box, and couldn't help but rolled his eyes, "Your Wenxiangju earns so much money a year, why do you care about such a small thing? !"

Ning Yunjin hated iron for nothing, and said, "Brother, you really are not in charge of the family. You don't know that oil and salt are expensive, so why don't you take things for free!"

"If you are seen like this, you will lose the face of the Ning family." Ning Yunting said helplessly.

Ning Yunjin pouted with an expression of not knowing him, and asked instead, "Brother, why are you looking for me?"

"Father said that he helped me make up for the vacancy of the internal guard. Don't you often go in and out of the palace, so I just want to ask if there is anything to pay attention to." Ning Yunting said expectantly and worriedly.

"There are still a few days before the opening of the office, why are you in a hurry!" Ning Yunjin is too lazy to say this now, time is money now!

Ning Yunting clenched his fists and made a threatening expression, "Say it or not!"

Before Ning Yunjin could show his willingness to die rather than submit, Qin Ming walked in with a nervous expression on his face. He didn't care that Ning Yunting was still there, and said, "Second Young Master, something happened to Wenxiangju!"
