"Today is New Year's Eve, what's wrong with having dinner together?" The Queen asked from the side. Did Ji Yingying dare to say "Why?"
In the end, Ji Yingying had a small New Year's Eve dinner in the palace. She was not happy at first, after all, who would like to have a meal with the leader, especially a family dinner. However, as soon as the dishes came, Ji Yingying became happy.
This looks delicious and splendid!
The key is to roast chicken, steamed chicken, grilled chicken, and all kinds of chicken.
"How is it? Did I prepare a variety of chickens for you?"
Ji Yingying nodded vigorously. Where at home could you get so many different kinds of chicken?
If she ate like this, her mother would definitely scold her for being a spendthrift! Even in the palace, she wouldn't dare scold her.
"Your Majesty, please eat this. This is delicious!" Ji Yingying picked up a piece for the Queen. Seeing the Emperor holding out his bowl, she picked up another piece for him: "Your Majesty, please eat this!"
The chicken rack is euphemistically called chicken, but in fact the meat has been peeled off by the chef.
"You..." Although the emperor said so, he still put the minced meat and soup into his mouth and ate them.
"Next year I'll take you out to travel around the world. I guarantee you'll be very happy after your trip."
"OK"
"No, state affairs are important!" the prince said immediately, fearing that the emperor would really abduct Ji Yingying away.
"Your Highness, you are unfilial! Your father wanted to go out and have some fun, but you refused."
"I'm just too filial. Father is not in good health, so it's better not to go out and play."
The Crown Prince made a decision: he would keep a close eye on Ji Yingying to prevent her from deceiving people.
"It's hot, we can go out for a walk. If it's cold, then forget it." Ji Yingying was so engrossed in her food that she didn't care what others were saying.
After eating, it started snowing heavily. The snow was so heavy that Ji Yingying couldn't leave the palace at all. She stayed in the palace directly and stayed there until New Year's Eve.
Finally, I managed to climb out of the palace and go home for the New Year.
As soon as she got home, Ji Yingying sensed that the atmosphere was strange.
"Apple, what happened at home? Why do I feel weird?"
In just a few days, could something serious have happened at home?
"The Madam asked the Young Master to go and see her. He agreed, but didn't go. Finally, he asked his colleague to go, and he ended up falling in love with her, which really pissed off the Madam."
Ji Yingying’s eyes widened. Her elder brother, is this something her elder brother could do?
I can't believe it at all.
[Xiangxiang, is my brother going through a rebellious phase?] After all, he's already eighteen or nineteen, so going through a rebellious phase is normal.
[Well, I think so. If this continues, your mother will become your brother's widow next year or the year after.]
[Hiss~ Not really. What kind of person is my brother? He's a good man. He's in such a high position at such a young age, how could anyone want him? He's just not a very nice person. I'll ask the Queen, no, the Crown Princess, if there's any good-looking girls I can introduce to my brother.]
During the conversation, we entered the main hall, where Jenny was also there!
"Second sister-in-law, why did you come out? It's snowing so heavily, you should just stay indoors. This is the first child in the Ji family." Ji Yingying looked at her bulging belly.
Then I thought about the heavy snow and the ice, and it would be difficult to walk without slipping!
"It's alright, it's not a big deal now. I was just asking my mother if she should go to the palace to pick you up."
[Haha…my mom would definitely say: Pick it up, I’ll definitely pick it up.]
To everyone's surprise, Xiangxiang said, "Your mother said she won't answer—do you believe her?"
【I don’t believe it! 】
If you don't believe me, ask your mother.
Ji Yingying looked up and saw that her mother's expression was off; Xiangxiang was clearly right.
"Mom, you're not even planning to let me come back for the New Year? You don't love me at all."
Fang Yulan had no choice but to say, "It's not that you can't spend the New Year in the palace. Besides, the Emperor has taken a liking to you, so it's quite good."
“Hehe~”
Ji Yingying said sarcastically, "What should I do if I'm a little angry?"
"Hey, are you still angry?"
"How dare I? You are our Tathagata Buddha, and I am just a little monkey from the Flower-Fruit Mountain. No matter how hard I try, I can't get out."
Ji Yingying found a bag of sunflower seeds and started cracking them open.
That lazy look made Fang Yulan want to beat him up. She yelled, "Sit down and look at what you look like!"
Ji Yingying immediately sat up straight, feeling incredibly aggrieved.
"Alright, hurry back inside. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and there are still many things to do."
Ji Yingying responded and, on her way back to the house, turned a corner and went directly to Ji Jiaming's courtyard.
"Big brother, big brother, are you inside?"
Ji Jiaming was reading a book. When he heard the sound, he responded quickly.
"What brings you to my yard?"
"I heard you pissed off your mother, so I came to see if you got beaten!"
"No, are you envious?" Ji Jiaming chuckled smugly, which infuriated Ji Yingying. When she angered her mother, her mother would beat her, but when it came to Ji Jiaming, nothing happened.
"Ugh...you deserve to be single. You didn't seize any good opportunities. You deserve to be a single dog, hmph!"
So annoying...
Ji Yingying turned around and went back, thinking that she had come to annoy others, but it turned out that she had come to annoy herself.
This is no fun!
[Host, you're hilarious!]
[What a joke!]
Ji Yingying snorted, and just as she returned to the room, someone came to say that An Yi had returned.
"He's back from his travels so quickly?" We invited him in; he had lost a lot of weight.
"Where are you going? You've lost so much weight! Are you short of money?"
"No, no, I just wanted to look around and wander around. By the way, I wrote a book about modern love, you can take a look and see if it's right. If it's not, I'll change it."
Ji Yingying took the book, flipped through two pages, then closed it and said, "This is the 'General's Little Wife' version. It's just a different name, nothing more. Besides, you don't understand some of the technology. You shouldn't write it."
I mentioned modern love to him before, the kind of tragic love, but what he wrote turned out to be a bit weird.
"Oh well."
[Host, he still has several storybooks.]
"Have you written anything else?"
Anyi shook her head and said, "It's not a storybook, it's a travelogue, and it's not finished yet."
"Then write it down. Now that you're back, are you going to spend the New Year at home, or somewhere else?"
"Just stay home. I can't go anywhere. I don't even have a home anymore!"
"What do you mean?" Ji Yingying didn't understand. Could it be that his family was killed during the war?
"When I got home, I discovered that the former emperor of my dynasty had executed my parents. They were innocent. I had been fighting against the former dynasty of Linfeng Kingdom all this time, and now I have avenged them."
Yes, in Linfeng Kingdom, because of a conflict of factions, his parents chose the wrong side and were subsequently executed by the emperor on trumped-up charges.
That's really tragic!
"You...sigh! Please accept my condolences. From now on, just treat it as...no, you can go to the princess's residence and make it your own home."
"Alright!" Ji Yingying had him sent to the princess's residence. After all, he was her own strategist! Yes, the strategist who wrote storybooks!
