Chapter 809, Staying Up All Years
"Ouch, be gentle, it hurts!"
Daohua's arm was indeed sprained. At this moment, Xiao Yeyang was applying a blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing potion on her.
Seeing that Daohua's forehead was covered with sweat, Xiao Yeyang felt extremely distressed. He felt resentful towards the Third Prince and his wife. After a moment of silence, he said:
"Bring plum blossoms, orchids, and chrysanthemums with you when you enter the palace."
If Meilan or Meiju were here today, Daohua wouldn't have to go and rescue people herself.
Daohua nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take them with me whenever I go out in the future." Now that they have entered Beijing, the risk factor is increasing rapidly, so they have to bring more bodyguards.
It was New Year's Eve and Daohua was injured. Xiao Yeyang wanted to let her rest, but Daohua refused.
"You're already married, how can you stay up all night alone?"
Xiao Yeyang couldn't stop Daohua, so he had to let her do what she wanted.
The two of them had some midnight snack together, and then sat on the kang in front of the window to play chess to pass the time.
At Chou time, Prince Ping returned home with Princess Ma and others.
After a while, Prince Ping came to Pingxi Hall.
"Is Yan girl okay?"
Before anyone entered the house, Prince Ping's voice came in.
Xiao Yeyang and Daohua quickly stood up to greet them.
Daohua smiled and said, "Father, thank you for coming to see me so late at night. My daughter-in-law is fine."
Looking at Daohua's hanging arm, Prince Ping told Xiao Yeyang: "Take good care of your wife. Fortunately, she is here today, otherwise the fourth son might be..."
The rest of the words were not spoken. If a three-year-old child fell from such a high city wall, he would definitely die.
Xiao Yeyang: "Got it."
Prince Ping gestured to Huai En to put down the boxes in his hands: "These are the rewards given to Yan Yatou by my brother. Put them away."
Daohua immediately smiled and said, "Uncle Emperor, you are so kind." She quickly waved her hand and asked Wang Man'er to take the things and put them away.
Prince Ping didn't leave immediately. He looked at Daohua and Xiao Yeyang and asked, "Are you staying up to celebrate the New Year?"
Daohua nodded: "Father, are you coming together?"
Prince Ping thought that after all these years, he had never spent the New Year with Xiao Yeyang. He coughed lightly and nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, Xiao Yeyang looked at the rice flowers helplessly.
Daohua shrugged. Could she say she was just being polite?
The two of them had no choice but to sit in the living room with Prince Ping, feeling bored. Daohua asked Wang Man'er to bring out the chessboard: "Father, would you like to play a game with Xiao Yeyang?"
Prince Ping glanced at Xiao Yeyang and said, "Come on!"
However, in less than a quarter of an hour, the game was over.
Xiao Yeyang looked at Prince Ping with a speechless expression. He didn't expect that his father's chess skills were so bad that they were not even as good as Daohua's.
Seeing Prince Ping's embarrassed face, Daohua smiled and said, "Father, let's play a game. I'm not good at chess, so please go easy on me."
Prince Ping's expression eased a bit, and he thought to himself, if I can't defeat my son, then how could I defeat my daughter-in-law?
After a while.
"Hey, a man of honor should never regret his moves. Why are you still changing the position of the chess piece?"
"I am a woman, not a man."
When Concubine Ji brought Xiao Yechang over, they happened to hear Prince Ping's roar. The two paused, and finally Concubine Ji walked into the room first with a smile on her face.
"The prince is here too?"
Prince Ping looked at Concubine Ji and Xiao Yechang and asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"
Concubine Ji smiled and looked at Daohua: "Chang'er and I wanted to come and see if the county lady's injury is serious?"
Daohua stood up and bowed: "Thank you for your concern, Concubine. I'm fine now."
Prince Ping glanced at Concubine Ji and Xiao Yechang with satisfaction: "You are thoughtful."
Xiao Yechang first saluted Daohua, then looked at Xiao Yeyang: "Second brother."
Xiao Yeyang glanced at Xiao Yechang and said "hmm" lightly. This younger brother's presence was really not strong. Many times he almost forgot that such a person existed.
Concubine Ji was also a capable person. After a few words, she learned that Prince Ping was going to stay in Pingxi Hall to celebrate the New Year, so she took Xiao Yechang and stayed there.
So, the New Year's Eve party of three people became one of five people.
Not long after, Guyu came in to report that Xiao Yuhua had arrived.
Daohua looked at Xiao Yeyang in surprise. What happened today? Why did everyone come to Pingxitang?
Although she was complaining in her heart, Daohua still went out of the house to welcome Xiao Yuhua in.
"I'm relieved that my sister-in-law is fine."
Xiao Yuhua seemed unaware that Prince Ping and the others were here. After entering the room, her face was full of surprise, and then she bowed.
Then, people stayed.
"It's really lively here tonight. Do you think anyone else will come?" Daohua whispered to Xiao Yeyang.
Xiao Yeyang snorted. He did not have much hatred with other people in the palace, but Ma's mother and son
"If Ma's mother and son dare to come, I will chase them away."
If she hadn't been injured, Daohua might have been in the mood to think of some programs to entertain everyone, but now her hand was hurting and she was too lazy to think at all.
But she felt embarrassed seeing Xiao Yeyang and the others sitting face to face.
"Xiao Yeyang, how about you and father and the others play Landlord? Whoever loses gets to stick a red note on his face."
When Prince Ping heard that this was something he had never played before, he immediately became interested and asked Xiao Yeyang to teach him.
Xiao Yechang originally came to make friends with Xiao Yeyang, so naturally he tried his best to accompany him.
What surprised Daohua was that Xiao Yuhua was also a playful and open-minded person, and actually joined the battle between Prince Ping, Xiao Yeyang and Xiao Yechang.
At the beginning of the Mao hour (5:00), except for Xiao Yeyang, the other three people had several red paper strips stuck on their faces, their faces flushed red, which made Daohua laugh for a long time.
"Your Majesty, it's already the morning hour!"
Concubine Ji gave a timely reminder.
Prince Ping glanced at the sky outside and put down the cards in his hand with a look of satisfaction: "This Landlord game is quite fun, Yeyang."
Seeing Xiao Yeyang's expressionless face, Prince Ping decisively shifted his gaze to Daohua: "Yan girl, do you have any extra cards? Give me two decks so I can teach those old guys I know."
Daohua smiled and nodded, then looked at Xiao Yechang and Xiao Yuhua: "Third brother and eldest sister, do you want it?"
Xiao Yechang looked hesitant and seemed a little embarrassed.
Xiao Yuhua nodded generously: "Then I would like to thank you very much, sister-in-law."
Daohua looked at Wang Man'er, and soon, Wang Man'er took out four decks of cards, giving two to Prince Ping, one to Xiao Yechang, and one to Xiao Yuhua.
Prince Ping was delighted when he received the cards and stood up: "Okay, everyone go back and wash up. We have to open the door and set off firecrackers to welcome the New Year later."
Seeing that Prince Ping was staying up late to celebrate the New Year in Pingxi Hall, Princess Ma really wanted to run over and pull him back, but she was stopped by Xiao Yechen.
Why did Xiao Yechen stop him?
Because when he was in the palace, he happened to see the scene where the Third Prince's wife pushed Yan Yiyi.
He knew Xiao Yeyang's temper too well. He couldn't touch the Third Prince and the Third Prince's wife, but he was more than capable of dealing with him, who followed the Third Prince.
When Xiao Yechen thought of his previous experience working at Yuanma Temple, he felt like vomiting.
Yan Yi had just been injured, so he shouldn't provoke Xiao Yeyang at this time, lest he take the opportunity to cause trouble.
At four quarters past the hour of Mao, the gate of Prince Ping's mansion opened wide, and then the deafening sound of firecrackers lasted for a full quarter of an hour.
After the sound of firecrackers, the ground was covered with red fragments.
When Prince Ping saw it, his face was full of smiles and he exclaimed "Mantanghong".
Afterwards, everyone returned to Pingxi Hall and began to wish Prince Ping a happy new year.
Xiao Yechen originally wanted to outshine Xiao Yeyang and be the first to come forward to wish Prince Ping a happy new year, but unfortunately, Xiao Yeyang was quick-witted and stood in front of Prince Ping with Daohua first.
"Happy New Year, Father."
"Father, Happy New Year! I wish you prosperity, wealth, good fortune, success in everything, constant smiles, and great luck!"
Listening to Daohua saying so many good things in one breath, Prince Ping laughed heartily: "Although it's a bit vulgar, it's still very thoughtful." As he said this, he gave out two of the largest red envelopes with a smile. When he gave the red envelope to Xiao Yeyang, he said: "You, you benefited from your wife's help."
Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua with pride, helped her stand up, and then naturally stepped back.
Seeing that the two men had no intention of wishing her a happy new year, Princess Ma rubbed the handkerchief in her hand but said nothing.
Xiao Yechen's first chance to pay New Year's greetings was snatched away, and the smile on his face afterwards became a little forced. Prince Ping didn't pay much attention to it at first, but who knew that Luo Qiong was extremely out of shape today, and didn't smile the whole time, which made Prince Ping a little unhappy.
Daohua looked at Luo Qiong in surprise. This person always gave her the impression that he was someone who was very good at considering the overall situation. What happened today?
Even if he was dissatisfied with Ma's mother and son, he would not show it so obviously.
By the way, I heard that she didn’t stay up to celebrate the New Year with Ma’s mother and son last night.
"What are you thinking about?"
Seeing Daohua staring at Luo Qiong, Xiao Yeyang squeezed Daohua's hand.
Daohua: "It seems like Luo Qiong is a little uneasy."
Xiao Yeyang glanced at Luo Qiong, then shook his head and looked away. He didn't care what happened to Xiao Yechen and his wife.
