Chu Wenzhong weighed the thick manuscript in his hand.
"Sister, have you read all these books?"
Chu Yunxi nodded. How could he copy it without reading it?
"I just looked at it briefly without studying it in detail."
Now even Chu Wenhong admired her a little. There are specialties in the art industry, and not everyone can read so many different types of books.
Chu Wenjin felt sorry for his sister.
"Xi'er, from now on, we can leave the work of copying books to the palace servants. You are pregnant, so you deserve more rest."
Chu Wenjin thought, maybe the book was in the royal collection and was not allowed to be circulated to outsiders, so his sister would copy it out with her own hands and show it to the brothers. It was a well-intentioned book.
Chu Yunxi knew that her brothers were worried about her, so she smiled and nodded in agreement.
But in her heart, she was thinking that it would be great if she could really use his hand. Unfortunately, her library tower was inaccessible to others.
She took the time to copy this out bit by bit.
"Master, master, there are many adults outside."
The boy guarding the door suddenly ran in to report, interrupting the family's mutual care.
General Chu looked at Jun Lingyun and saw that he had no objection, so he said to the boy:
"Please come in."
These adults came to visit in the middle of the night, and they must have come to wish Jun Lingyun and Chu Yunxi New Year greetings. But, there are so many, how many are there?
Chu Yunxi also looked at Jun Lingyun in confusion. These courtiers were too active. Why couldn't they wait until they returned to the palace before paying homage to them?
Jun Lingyun gave her an expression that she would just get used to.
Not long after, the adults entered General Chu's mansion in an orderly manner.
The leader was clearly their supervisor.
Seeing that there was no room left in the house, they did not enter the house and saluted directly in the courtyard.
"I, together with all the courtiers, pay New Year greetings to the Emperor and the Queen. I wish the Emperor may be as blessed as the East Sea and live as long as the Southern Mountains. I wish the Queen may stay young forever."
Jun Lingyun narrowed his eyes slightly, what kind of words are these? Can they be used in New Year greetings?
The ministers behind looked at each other and felt that this speech was inappropriate, but Jun Zifeng had already started, so they had no choice but to catch up.
Said in unison:
"I wish the Emperor may you be as blessed as the East Sea and live longer than the Southern Mountains, and may the Queen remain young forever."
Chu Yunxi raised his forehead slightly, and Jun Zifeng unexpectedly brought all the ministers who were attending the banquet in the palace to their General Chu mansion.
This is the consequence of her falling out with Jun Lingyun.
"Plain body."
Jun Lingyun was not surprised at all.
"Everyone is interested, please go home and celebrate the New Year with your family."
The ministers looked at each other again and didn't even give them a sip of tea. They were kicked out by the emperor as soon as they arrived.
Prime Minister Cao asked tentatively:
"Your Majesty, why don't I wait here to stay with you and the Queen?"
"The time of the child has passed, and the New Year has been observed. I want to rest."
Jun Lingyun's words made the whole world chatter to death.
"Then, I will not disturb the emperor's rest. I will leave."
The ministers had no choice but to go back the same way and dispersed.
Jun Zifeng and Su Yan beside him were left.
When Chu Yunxi saw that all the courtiers had left, he got up and went to greet Su Yan.
"Cousin, come in quickly and warm yourself up."
Princess Guo, Princess Shengya, and Zhou Ruoxuan also came forward, and the hall was instantly filled with women's laughter.
Jun Lingyun glanced at Jun Zifeng, who always had an elegant and polite smile on his face.
"Okay, stop holding it, I'm tired just looking at it."
Hearing this, Jun Zifeng rubbed his face vigorously with his hands, moved his expression, and then returned to normal.
After a night of battling wits and courage with those ministers and complimenting each other, his face became stiff.
Mrs. Chu had already ordered her servants to add a seat under Jun Lingyun. Jun Zifeng sat down and said to Jun Lingyun:
"Your Majesty, should I give you a bath until the Lantern Festival?"
"You are the supervisor of the country. When there are no national affairs to deal with, you can take a rest."
Jun Lingyun's words were so reasonable that Jun Zifeng was speechless. So, he didn't know how to adapt in the past?
The family chatted for a while. Jun Lingyun saw that Chu Yunxi was a little sleepy, so he stood up and went to her side.
"Xi'er, let's go back to the palace."
Chu Yunxi nodded, it was already late at night, and it was time for his father and mother to rest.
"Father, mother, brothers, sisters-in-law, we are going back to the palace now."
Jun Zifeng, Sikong Yu and others also followed suit and left.
The Chu family sent them outside the house, and then they said goodbye.
"It's dark and snowy, so take your time on the road."
On the carriage back to the palace, Chu Yunxi hesitated to speak. Jun Lingyun knew what she wanted to ask, so he took the initiative to speak.
"My father was a little delirious tonight. He thought that he was still the emperor, and the courtiers ignored him as the emperor and refused to celebrate the New Year with him, so they got angry and accidentally injured a Jieyu, causing her blood to flow."
Jun Lingyun's eyes were deep, thinking of Concubine Rong who was still imprisoned in the palace.
Although his father had done many wrong things, Concubine Rong should not be persecuted. She was not qualified.
Chu Yunxi didn't know how to comfort Jun Lingyun for a moment. The imperial doctor had said at the beginning that the damage caused by the incense to the body could not be reversed.
"Ling Yun, arrange for an imperial doctor to serve my father."
Jun Lingyun took Chu Yunxi into his arms. He knew that if it weren't for him, it would have been better for Chu Yunxi not to hate his father.
The two returned to the palace and had just slept for two or three hours when it was dawn again.
Although Chu Yunxi is still very sleepy, as a daughter-in-law, she doesn't have to set rules in front of her parents-in-law all year round, so she is already much luckier than other women.
On this first day of the new year, she couldn't let others find fault, so she kept her spirits up and didn't let Jun Lingyun notice anything.
I'm afraid that he will get a reputation as unfilial for himself.
The carriage drove all the way to the Royal Palace. Chu Yunxi saw that Jun Lingyun was more taciturn than usual, and knew that his feelings for the Supreme Emperor were complicated.
Although the Supreme Emperor felt sorry for many people, he eventually cultivated Jun Lingyun into a generation of emperors.
When Chu Yunxi saw the Supreme Emperor again, he sat quietly on the Arhat couch and watched them approach quietly.
"My son, I would like to wish my father a happy new year."
"Daughter-in-law, wish my father a happy New Year."
The Supreme Emperor said nothing, so Jun Lingyun and Chu Yunxi had no choice but to get up on their own.
"Father, have you remembered my son?"
Hearing what he said, Chu Yunxi was shocked. Could it be that the Supreme Emperor had developed to such an extent that he could not even remember Jun Lingyun, his proud son?
She quietly raised her eyes and looked at the Supreme Emperor, only to see that the Supreme Emperor was also looking at her.
"Chu Yunxi, back then I thought that by making you the Crown Princess, I was getting half a daughter for myself, but I didn't expect that I was getting half a son for your Chu family."
Chu Yunxi opened his mouth, wanting to say something. But after thinking about it, he seemed to have nothing to refute.
Jun Lingyun is indeed better to the Chu family than she is to the Supreme Emperor.
Jun Lingyun pulled Chu Yunxi towards him.
"Father, Xi'er is pregnant. If you have anything to say, just tell me."
The Supreme Emperor shifted his gaze to Chu Yunxi's bulging belly, thoughtfully.
