Fairy, Please Let Me Explain Chapter 523

Chapter 523 Reunion

The sound of firecrackers marked the end of the year. Since the night garrison hour, sporadic sounds of firecrackers have been heard in Di'an City. As Haishi approached, the sound of firecrackers almost became one, and the one after another sounds even faintly covered the sound. It refers to the "blessings" that Heavenly Family gave to all people some time ago.

 New Year's Eve in Di'an City is very festive. Although the officials need to keep the New Year's Eve for the dynasty, the people do not.

After the reunion dinner, the residential alleys became lively. Neighbors and villagers all knew each other well. Children were running around in groups on the dirt roads in the dark alleys. Elders of the family gathered together. Together they chatted about the past, or gathered at a table in the courtyard to play chess such as Jianpai and Jianma.

Outside these residential alleys, the commercial streets are still bustling. Wealthy people in brocade robes visit the temple fairs and markets in groups. The shouts, laughter and curses, as well as the red lights, illuminate the lights of thousands of houses in Di'an. .

Before the arrival of Haishi, when the atmosphere was at its hottest, a loud neighing sound suddenly resounded in the sky above Di'an.

It was a ball of fire that slowly climbed up into the dark sky from the palace city in the center of Emperor'an.

 The people who saw this scene did not have any panic in their eyes. Instead, they all put down what they were doing and stopped to look at the fireball slowly rising into the sky with expectation and excitement.

Every New Year's Eve, the Ministry of Etiquette and the Supervisor of Ceremonies in the palace will light the New Year's flames to celebrate the New Year. Although this year's New Year's Eve is a bit tense, it all happens in temples and has nothing to do with the people.

This ball of New Year's Eve flames has risen to a height that is invisible to ordinary people's naked eyes in the eyes of everyone.

The legitimate sons of noble births are just working in some Qingshui yamen, but an illegitimate son is actually arranged by the master to enter the prime minister's house. Is this appropriate? Of course not appropriate.

Wang Shicai, the head of the family, could be bullied like this, not to mention that people could die at any time in the red-walled palace.

“Third Young Master, it's really a sin for you to be out of town during the Chinese New Year. My three useless wives also made you laugh.”

The fire ball exploded in the dark sky exactly at the time of Haishi. Countless meteors trailing flames dispersed in all directions with the explosion, and exploded again during the flight, turning into a sky full of colors and blooming in the dark sky.

 As for why there is no reply?

It was not because the procedure for reporting illness was complicated, but because the official who reviewed and approved the memorial for reporting illness submitted his resignation and returned to the Inner Courtyard of the Prime Minister's Office to celebrate the New Year.

This New Year's Eve, if it weren't for the fact that the prince was in the house and those women wanted to make things difficult for him, Xu Yuan, I'm afraid the little old man Wang Yuqian would wet his pants on the spot.

“The New Year will be celebrated only on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, why are you in such a hurry?”

 Two completely unrelated things, but they are inexplicably connected.

 For this matter, I suffered a lot from the little old man Wang Yuqian.

 After all, according to Dayan custom, the younger generation has to kowtow to the elders.

In an instant, the gorgeous colorful fireworks covered most of Di'an, lighting up the sky and the eyes of every Di'an citizen.

Well, it turns out that the old man just wanted to find a topic to stir up.

 The second and third bedrooms of the big house are all busy.

Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite. Xu Yuan has read Wang Yuqian's information. Although this young old man is backed by the prime minister's office, his three wives are all from prominent families in the capital, which is considered a political marriage.

"hehe."

 However, Xu Yuan had some thoughts on how to respond to this matter.

The prince's private recruitment some time ago has already demonstrated the ability of "Wang Shicai". With this endorsement, the little old man Wang Yuqian sent him to the Prime Minister's Mansion justifiably, which added a lot of convenience for him to enter and exit the house. .

Wang Yuqian smiled coquettishly, but had no intention of stopping. He continued to ask cautiously:

“Third Young Master, is this the end of the year?”

 Experiencing a moment of silence,

With these trivial matters in mind, a probing voice gently entered Xu Yuan's ears:

 The hearts of the people are in flames, but unfortunately the water that carries boats in this world is not the people.

Xu Yuan smiled slightly, waved his hand gently, and continued to look out the window:

Prince Li Yucheng discussed with him tonight the same thing as last time, extending an olive branch to recruit him, but the difference was that this time the recruitment was based on the framework of the Prime Minister's Palace.

This is the emperor's New Year greeting to all the people in the world.

Xu Yuan originally planned to have this year's New Year's Eve dinner at home, but the plan could not keep up with the change. The prince suddenly visited the residence of the left minister of the Ministry of War, that is, the little old man Wang Yuqian, and said that he wanted to see his "illegitimate son". The prince had no choice but to put down his bowl and chopsticks and go to "entertain". As a result, he stayed in the palace of the Minister of War until the end of the year.

After thinking for a while, Xu Yuan shook his head gently.

Looking at these fights in the palace, Xu Yuan somewhat understood how bad the environment Li Zhaoyuan was in the palace.

  “It doesn't matter.”

"boom-"

Those aristocratic families cling to the Prime Minister's Office through Wang Yuqian, and the Prime Minister's Office also controls those aristocratic families through Wang Yuqian. Therefore, although Wang Yuqian has a great say in the Minister's Mansion, he is not the only one who speaks.

 “What about the palace New Year's Eve banquet on the first day of the lunar month tomorrow?”

 Because Wang Shicai's identity has been invested in the Prime Minister's Office.

It is not a big deal for these court officials to report illness and return home on New Year's Eve. It is just a clear attitude. However, if things like the New Year's Feast are not held, this attitude will expand and the situation will easily get out of control. .

Wang Yuqian was worried and rubbed his hands:

 According to common sense, Wang Yucheng, as an important minister of the third rank, had to stay at the Ministry of War Yamen to watch the New Year's Eve for the country on New Year's Eve. However, today he directly submitted a medical report and returned home without waiting for the court's reply.

Huttered for a moment, Xu Yuan continued to follow the opponent's attack:

Looking at the fireworks in the sky gradually dissipating, and the crowds of people kneeling on the street like a tide to bow to Miyagi, Xu Yuan suddenly thought of the resignation letter that his father handed in tonight.

Closer to home, it is quite interesting for Prince Li Yucheng to visit the senior officials of the Prime Minister's Party on New Year's Eve. His action of stopping Li Yunqing last night was considered as a surrender letter to the Prime Minister's Office, and tonight, the Prime Minister has already submitted his resignation letter. He also visited the senior officials of the Prime Minister's Party. In a sense, His Royal Highness the Prince has fully stated his position. When the storm of this matter is over, the current Prince can be regarded as half of the Prime Minister's family, who can use each other. kind.

Xu Yuan raised his eyes and saw the little old man Wang Yuqian carefully looking at his face.

 His harem was on fire.

And Wang Yuqian is not an exception. Tonight, half of the second- and third-grade officials in the court announced their illness and returned home without permission.

Game of the Brave belongs to Yes.

With a chuckle, Xu Yuan's eyes curved and he whispered:

 “Wang Shilang,

“You are just complaining about illness, but you are not seeking employment.”

 When he returned home tonight, Xu Yuan did not cover his tracks.

The carriage of the Minister of War stopped at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Xu Yuan entered the courtyard through the side door in an open and honest manner.

The prince's attitude tonight required "Wang Shicai" to be the microphone. As soon as he entered the door, he saw a big succubus waiting for him behind the courtyard door.

As the chief of Black Scale, Lou Ji is actually a loner, especially after killing Granny Long that night, she even lost a friend who could talk to her.

　　On this New Year's Eve when everyone was reunited, she only came to see him as her little brother.

However, after some joking and teasing, the big succubus still did not force him to stay with her to stay overnight. Instead, he took Xu Yuan to the door of the inner courtyard, gave him a hug, and left quietly.

After many twists and turns, it was almost the time when Xu Yuan returned to the inner courtyard.

 Walking all the way inward along the alleyway of the inner courtyard, Xu Yuan pushed open the open door of the main courtyard and saw a warm scene like an ordinary home.

It was dark outside, but the lights were still bright inside the main hall, and the three figures were each doing their own thing in the light.

Xu Xinyao, wearing a festive red dress, was half-lying on the table, holding her fair cheeks in one hand, drooping her slender and dense eyelashes, feeling a little drowsy.

Dora Yao also put a lot of effort into studying the body of Emperor Xi'en. In addition, she had to study the soul ring that stored demons and ghosts, so she probably didn't rest for several days. Feng Jiuxuan, on the other hand, was still dressed in white and was sitting on the side with his eyes closed and concentrating with a calm expression. The broken sword Qingyuan was also placed on the table in front of him.

Father Xu Yinhe was sitting on the main seat, calmly holding a book and browsing it quietly. There was a porcelain cup in front of him, and bursts of heat were radiating from the porcelain cup. Next to the teacup was a chessboard. , there are black and white on the chessboard, but looking at the book he is holding in his hand, it is obviously gone.

Xu Yuan's lips curved into a smile.

Although the temple is high, it also has family affection.

 They are all waiting for him.

While walking forward slowly, Xu Yuan glanced at the chess game on the board with his spiritual vision, and a flash of surprise flashed subconsciously in his eyes.

Xu Yuan knows a little bit about Go, but he can only understand it.

The chess game on the table does not seem to be played by this father, because black's chess is a one-sided massacre against white's chess. White's chess is directly hit by the knife at the beginning, but in a hundred moves, black's chess has already slaughtered white's big dragon, and even found the entire board. There are less than two live chess pieces, and they are too **** to bear to look at.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　ifies

A chuckle spread in the silent courtyard, and Xu Yuan was wondering if it was when Xu Changge's king was being slaughtered. Feng Jiuxuan, who was concentrating with his eyes closed, suddenly glanced sideways at him, his eyes calm.

  .”Xu Yuan.

   ."Feng Jiuxuan.

A moment of silence,

Xu Yinhe, who was on the throne, slowly put down the file in his hand, raised his eyes and looked at the three sons in the courtyard, and said:

“You're all back, why are you still hanging out in the yard?”

Xu Yuan blinked and continued walking towards the house.

It's Chinese New Year today. As an uncle, you can't beat him for such a trivial matter.

Thinking of this, Xu Yuan suddenly had a clear idea, knowingly asked with a smile and said:

“Father, your self-playing skills are a bit unrestrained. Look at how the black ones have killed the white ones. Your level is too bad. Next time you are bored, I will come and play with you.”

Xu Yinhe was silent for a moment after hearing this, and glanced at Feng Jiuxuan with a slight smile.

Seeing this, Feng Jiuxuan also had a faint smile on his thin lips, and said softly:

 “Zi Shi is coming soon. If you wait a little longer, the New Year's Eve dinner at home can wait until next year.”

 In the former Shizi period, it was from 11 pm to 1 am, but in the Great Yanzi period, it was divided into one day.

Stepping into the main hall, the sleepy girl lying on the desk also raised her eyes and said with a smile:

 “Third brother, you are back.”

Xu Yuan passed by her and rubbed her long, silky hair, then sat next to her and asked in a low voice:

 “Xu Chang. Hey, where is the elder brother?”

He didn't see Xu Changge when he came back. According to common sense, his father would not arrange for his family to go out on missions on New Year's Eve.

Xu Xinyao braced herself up and blinked her eyes. She subconsciously glanced at the empty seat beside her with a hint of surprise in her eyes. She blinked her beautiful eyes with a hint of doubt:

 “Brother, he was still here just now”

Xu Yuan reacted quickly when he heard this, and subconsciously glanced in the direction of the kitchen:

“Heh, he probably sensed my return and ran to cook in advance, um. I'll go to the kitchen to have a look.”

As he said that, Xu Yuan stood up again before sitting on his hot buttocks.

Seeing this, Xu Xinyao also stood up and said with a smile:

“Then Xinyao also goes to help.”

 “Come on, do you want to blow up the kitchen?”

“Xinyao also learned some cooking skills when she traveled.”

“That's okay, we are two saints, one is from the beginning, and the food you make shouldn't be able to kill anyone.”

“Brother! What are you talking about?” Xu Xinyao said with a hint of anger.

With that said, Xu Xinyao jumped up and followed Xu Yuan out of the main hall, joking and joking.

 After a brief period of excitement, silence returned to the warmly lit main hall.

Looking at the two children leaving, Xu Yinhe had a loving smile in his deep eyes, but this smile only lasted for a moment and then dimmed again.

 Originally, today would be even more lively

“Since you have chosen this path, keep going.”

A calm voice came from the side, and Xu Yinhe glanced at Feng Jiuxuan in response.

Feng Jiuxuan lowered his eyes and looked at the broken sword in front of him, and said in a very soft voice:

"Qian'er is dead and Chang'an is dead too. Even for them, you and Xu Yinhe have to finish this journey."

Xu Yinhe's response was very calm:

 “I just don't want to see this house become any more deserted.”

 “Then do everything to the extreme.”

 “Oh, don't worry about this.”

After Xu Yinhe finished speaking, he asked in a low voice:

“Why don't you go to the Black Prison to see your old man tonight?”

After a moment of silence, Feng Jiuxuan gently shook his head:

"No matter what he does, family affection is not worth mentioning to him."

Xu Yinhe took a deep look at Feng Jiuxuan:

 “People will change after losing everything.”

Feng Jiuxuan lowered his eyes and thought for a moment. Before he could speak, he heard a sound of chickens and dogs jumping from the kitchen.

 “Get out! Who let you in?”

 “Hey, I'm here to help you today.”

“Have I ever said that I need help? Changtian, don't ask me to repeat it a second time.”

“Third brother, eldest brother, please stop arguing.”

“Tsk, Xu Changge, are you really sick? Today is the Chinese New Year. Try touching me and see if your father can beat you. Well, if your father doesn't beat you, my uncle will have to beat you too.”

"oh?"

“Hey! Wait a minute, Xu Changge, put the knife down first.”

Hearing the noise coming from the other side, the two middle-aged men in the hall looked at each other and saw a smile in each other's eyes.
