Chapter seven hundred and sixty-ninth New Year's Day
Just as Wang Ruoqing got out of bed, her legs accidentally softened. Fortunately, Di Xin reached out in time, otherwise she might have fallen to the ground directly.
After calming down for a while and feeling that her body had gained some strength, she walked to the dressing table and sat down.
Xizi had to help the family with the work since she was a child, and her health has always been better than that of Wang Ruoqing. In addition, although the sorcerer does not cultivate his body, he has become much stronger than ordinary people after breaking through to the magic.
Therefore, although she was a little weak, she was not as unbearable as Wang Ruoqing.
However, the same thought flashed through both of their minds.
His Highness seemed to be more powerful than usual last night.
As soon as this thought flashed across their faces, a blush flashed across both of their faces.
After serving Di Xin to get dressed, Xizi said softly: "Your Highness, sister, I will go back to the house to change clothes first."
After Di Xin and Wang Ruoqing both nodded, she walked out of Wang Ruoqi's house.
Xiaocui had been standing guard at the door, so Xizi met her head-on as soon as he went out.
Seeing the surprise flashing in Xiaocui's eyes, Xizi felt extremely shy for a moment.
The absurdity last night was one thing, but it was another thing to be exposed by outsiders.
Xiaocui quickly calmed down her expression, bowed slightly and saluted: "Hello, Princess Side."
One of the rules that a maid must abide by is not to make any comments or make irresponsible remarks about the master's affairs.
Xizi was too embarrassed to even say hello, so he nodded casually and ran back to his house in a panic.
At the same time, Wang Ruoqing's voice also sounded in the house.
"Xiao Cui, come in."
"yes."
Xiaocui walked into the house and gently closed the door Xizi opened just now.
…
Although he did not return to the capital, he still had to follow the proper etiquette.
After worshiping their ancestors, Di Xin and Wang Ruoqing could take off their complicated and solemn attire and put on clothes that were lighter but still more formal than usual.
Then, as the side concubine, Xizi served tea to the main concubine, Wang Ruoqing.
Then you can have breakfast.
After breakfast, with the exception of the Provincial Envoy, who did not come because he wanted to avoid suspicion, officials of the sixth rank and above from the Provincial Envoy and the Du Commander, as well as their families, came to visit one after another as if they were stuck.
The family members here only refer to the official wives of these officials. Of course, some individuals also bring their own sisters.
Among them, the officials were brought to the study by Laifu to meet His Royal Highness Prince Yu, while the family members were led by Xiaocui to the backyard to be received by Wang Ruoqing and Xizi.
This is not an attempt by officials to gain popularity, but a system that has existed since ancient times.
What they worshiped was not General Zhenguan, but the emperor's son, His Royal Highness Prince Yu.
When Di Xin was in the Great Desolate Realm, he simply omitted the red tape that he didn't like. But at that time, as the leader of the Great Desolate Realm, he did not dare to say a word "no".
But this is in the Ancient Moon Realm, and Di Xin is still just a prince. He still needs to rely on the power of Yanque Pass to fight for the throne of Dali, and then compete for the master of the Ancient Moon Realm.
The hundreds of officials at Yanque Pass are his current base, and the officials take these etiquettes very seriously.
Therefore, although Di Xin found it troublesome, he still received them one by one.
…
Fortunately, it was only officials from Yanque Pass. If officials of the sixth grade and above from other acropolis within the jurisdiction also came to visit, one day would not be enough.
It can only be said that Dali's etiquette system still takes some practical situations into consideration.
But even so, from the morning until it was almost dark, Di Xin sent all the officials away.
Wang Ruoqing, on the other hand, met a few sisters with whom she had a good chat, so she stayed with them for a while.
If the first dinner on the first day of the Lunar New Year had not been eaten with her family according to the etiquette, Wang Ruoqing might even have left them to have dinner together.
But even so, they have agreed on a time to get together again after the end of the year.
Regarding this, Di Xin was happy to see it come to fruition.
Among the women in the General's Mansion, Song Qianwei has temporarily left, Xizi is busy with the think tank, and Zhao Yue'er goes wild every day. Only Wang Ruoqing stays in the General's Mansion, and in most cases does not even leave the backyard.
In the past, Song Qianwei took her to go shopping together, but after Song Qianwei left, except for the last time she went out of the city with Di Xin and others, she never stepped out of the gate of the General's Mansion.
Di Xin saw all this and hoped that Wang Ruoqing could have a few more sisters to accompany her. Now this situation is exactly what he expected.
…
Before all the officials came to visit, Zhao Quanyou, who was the first to enter the city after the city gates opened, was the first person to visit.
In addition to sending congratulatory gifts from various places, his biggest purpose was to take Zhao Yuer away.
It was still the same inn as last time. He had sent someone back in advance to book it again.
As things turn out once and for all, the innkeeper who originally planned to give himself a home during the New Year, after collecting a large amount of money, simply put down the keys to the inn except for himself and the waiter's room, and then went home.
Faced with Zhao Quanyou's request to take Zhao Yue'er out to celebrate the New Year, Di Xin was not embarrassed and agreed directly.
Di Xin did not ask him to leave to report on his situation outside during this period, and the two days did not differ from each other. The whole New Year period was reserved for the reunion of the father and daughter who had been separated for a long time.
Zhao Quanyou was originally a little worried that Di Xin would not be relieved, but now he saw his attitude and let out a sigh of relief.
Then, the father and daughter returned to the inn.
They still lived in the same two rooms, and the hole dug out of Zhao Yue'er's original room had been blocked by the chimney of another coal stove.
But neither of them paid attention to these little things.
After lighting the coal stove, Zhao Yue'er began to tell Zhao Quanyou how she had missed her father in the past few months, and selectively told him what happened during this period.
Although Zhao Yue'er concealed the fact that she exposed her true nature and ran wild, Zhao Quanyou could still hear in Zhao Yue'er's story that she was satisfied with life in the General's Mansion.
Obviously, His Royal Highness Prince Yu did not lie to him at first. She did not receive any ill-treatment in the General's Mansion, and she was not even subject to the restraints that a hostage should have.
And this point also corresponds to his guess at the time.
His daughter and Prince Yu indeed had a good relationship before he even knew it.
At the same time, he also overturned one of his previous guesses from Zhao Yue'er's words.
Although his daughter spoke in a cryptic manner, as someone who had experienced it, he had already heard that although Zhao Yue'er and King Yu had a close relationship, they were not the kind of relationship between a man and a woman that he thought.
In this way, his last worry was relieved.
Although he does not object to his daughter finding someone he likes, in fact, every father is unwilling to let his daughter get married too early, and Zhao Quanyou is certainly no exception.
A married daughter is no longer just a little cotton-padded jacket for her father.
