On New Year's Eve, Emperor Le of the Qing Dynasty held a palace banquet in the Huagai Palace.
This was the first palace banquet after the new emperor ascended the throne, and it also coincided with the three-year assessment year for the court's non-local officials.
Therefore, this palace banquet was prepared in an unusually grand and luxurious manner, with the largest number of participants in history.
Many people wanted to take this opportunity to meet the new emperor.
By the afternoon, many officials' wives had entered the palace in their best attire.
Everyone was extremely excited to have the opportunity to see the Holy Face. How could they just sit at home?
At the Luo family in Xicheng, the youngest Luo Jinghua ran to the front yard and then to the back yard, constantly urging everyone to set off quickly.
After Luo Qingqing finished dressing up, she took her maids Mingyue and Qingfeng to the front yard to meet her father and second brother.
This year's Spring Festival, their family still could not be reunited. The eldest brother Luo Jingxue stayed in the southwest, and only his father and brother returned to Beijing.
The Luo family's carriage was already waiting in front of the mansion.
Luo Yu and Luo Jingfeng were standing at the door talking. Cao Yuzhen was giving instructions about things in the house. Ten-year-old Luo Jinghua stamped his feet anxiously, "Oh, why hasn't Third Sister come yet? Women are always troublesome."
Luo Qingqing arrived late. She poked Luo Jinghua's pouty mouth in amusement and asked, "Hua'er, why are you so anxious?"
Luo Jinghua waited for Luo Qingqing and knew that it was time to set off.
He hurriedly climbed onto the carriage. "I heard the snacks in the palace are the best. What if I go there too late and they're gone?"
Luo Qingqing laughed.
Cao Yuzhen also laughed, "You child, all you do is eat all day long. Qing'er, let's get in the carriage."
Luo Qingqing nodded.
In front of Luo Yu, she and her stepmother still lived in peace.
It’s not that Luo Qingqing has forgotten that her stepmother and Han Junsi conspired to murder her, but she has just returned for a few days and needs to plan revenge.
She did not tell Luo Yu and her two brothers the truth about Cao Yuzhen and Han Junsi's plan to murder her.
She was afraid that they would act impulsively and do something bad.
A few months ago, she left Shanzhou and headed south. After many hardships, she finally reunited with her father and brothers.
She made up a story about her recent experiences, "I was going back to my hometown to pay respect to my mother, and I suddenly encountered bandits on the way.
I got separated from my slaves and groped my way through the mountains for a long time before finally finding my way to a village.
The people in the village are very nice. They give me food and shelter, and I work for them.
Later, I went hunting with them, caught a lot of prey, and made a little money, so I came south to find you..."
Luo Yu and his two brothers were so frightened after hearing this that they had no mood to worry about the details.
Luo Qingqing just covered up her experience in Jiuyou Mountain Village.
She lived in Yuncheng in the south for a while until her father and brother returned to Beijing to report on their work, and then she followed them back.
I still remember that when she got out of the sedan chair, Cao Yuzhen saw her with an expression as if she had seen a ghost. She felt happy no matter how she looked at her.
Tonight, she entered the palace to deal with Jiang Yayuan, the white moonlight in Han Junsi's heart.
Although she was not in the capital during this period, she did not lose contact with the capital.
She asked her elder brother Luo Jingxue to send her a few useful people.
When these people returned to the capital, what they did was to monitor every move of the Han family, the Jiang family, and Cao Yuzhen.
After she was encountered by bandits, Han Junsi thought his plan had succeeded because he could not find her body.
He pretended to send people to look for her for a while, and acted affectionately in front of the world.
A few months later, he painfully proposed to cancel the engagement with the Luo family.
It was several months later that he announced his marriage to the Jiang family.
He did these for the world to see.
The entire capital city knew that Han Junsi was deeply in love with Luo Qingqing. If possible, he might even be willing to die for her.
But life must go on. Han Junsi was moved by Jiang Yayuan's company when he was sad and painful, and the two got together, which made the story of a talented man and a beautiful woman come true.
This is the noble image that Han Junsi carefully created.
He put on such a big show, no one would believe that he was so cruel as to hire someone to murder Luo Qingqing.
Han Junsi and Jiang Yayuan were acting in front of people, but behind their backs they couldn't help but sleep together.
The people sent by Luo Qingqing have found out that Jiang Yayuan is two months pregnant.
Jiang Yayuan and Han Junsi had only been married for half a month.
If the world knew that Jiang Yayuan was already two months pregnant, would the noble image they created in front of the world still exist?
Jiang Yayuan's pregnancy is exactly what Luo Qingqing is targeting tonight.
Luo Qingqing sat in the sedan chair, ignoring Cao Yuzhen's inquiring gaze.
She repeatedly confirmed with the system: "System, I have already agreed that you will help me get rid of Jiang Yayuan's pregnancy tonight. If you make any mistakes again, you will leave."
The system nodded repeatedly in agreement.
It knew that Luo Qingqing was holding a grudge against Rucheng that night, so it did not help her take down Xiao Jiuchen.
Its purpose is to make Luo Qingqing and Xiao Jiuchen get together.
At the critical moment, it wouldn't be stupid enough to try to stop it, right?
It’s a pity that after that night, Luo Qingqing did not become pregnant.
Fortunately, Luo Qingqing returned to the capital.
There is still a chance that Luo Qingqing and Xiao Jiuchen will have a child.
In the magnificent and huge Huagai Hall, important officials sat in the main hall, while other officials and their female relatives sat in two side halls.
At sunset, the lights came on and the hall was bustling with people.
Everyone was constantly chatting and chatting in the crowd, either consolidating old relationships or making new ones, and everyone was busy and having a great time.
