Chapter 132 New Year's Eve Banquet; Gao Xiyue is jealous
The New Year’s Eve dinner is the real highlight.
At that time, the palace will reunite and the royal family will bring their families to pay a visit.
Gao Xiyue and Su Lujun were so busy that they were dizzy, and only Hailan followed behind Ruyi to get some free time.
Gao Xiyue dragged her tired body to Ruyi and complained: "Sister, why don't you just take some time off and hide away? Why don't you let Concubine Yu follow you and slack off?"
What she said really sounded like she was jealous of Hailan.
Hai Lan hid behind Ruyi and annoyed her from time to time, and she found it very interesting.
"Okay, what are you two arguing about? Hasn't everything been arranged?" Ruyi said.
Gao Xiyue nodded: "Yeah, wasn't I making dumplings before? I just finished washing up now."
Ruyi: "I don't know how to make dumplings, so I brought us a pot of vinegar made from rose petals."
Ruyi couldn't help but sigh that in her previous life, she was sent to the cold palace because of A Ruo's frame-up.
At the Lidong family dinner after leaving the cold palace, Ruyi smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know how to make dumplings, so I brought a bottle of rose vinegar that I brewed myself, and I'd like Your Majesty to taste it."
Hongli saw it and said, "Empress Xian, your things are the most inconspicuous but indispensable."
Perhaps, Hongli thought at this time that only Ruyi understood him.
It has to be said that he can protect whoever he wants to.
Everything that is not fully obtained is good.
At this time, Ruyi and Hongli were in tune with each other and had each other in their hearts.
Therefore, Ruyi chose not to make dumplings, but brought the indispensable vinegar, like this.
Even if the emperor didn't eat the dumplings she made, he would have to dip them in the vinegar she brought.
The love of a young girl is so enviable, but unfortunately, she only wanted love in her life and eventually lost the gamble.
Angel Hailan noticed that Ruyi was a little lost. She took Ruyi's hand and asked, "What's wrong, sister?"
Ruyi patted her hands to show that she was fine.
At the hour of You, the New Year’s Eve banquet officially begins.
Even Hongzhan, who seldom visited the palace on weekdays, was there.
Hong Zhou was already half drunk at this time.
The eunuch shouted, "The Emperor has arrived."
Everyone stood up and saluted.
After Hongli took his seat, he waved to everyone and said, "Stand up."
"Hongzhan, I haven't seen you for a long time. I only heard your teacher Shen Deqian often praising you."
Hongzhan stood up and knelt down: "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."
Hongli raised his hand: "Hurry up and sit down."
He turned to look at Hong Zhou again: "Hong Zhou, you're already drunk at the beginning of this banquet?"
Hong Zhou raised his glass and said, "My Royal Brother, you should enjoy life to the fullest."
Hongli smiled, picked up the glass and drank with him.
Amid the music, the eunuchs began to serve hot soup and presented the emperor with a pair of soup boxes.
On the left are one dish each of red and white duck soup and glutinous rice soup; on the right are one dish each of bird's nest pounded chicken soup and tofu soup.
After the emperor took out the lid of the soup box, he gave the concubines one bowl of soup and one bowl of rice.
After the soup and meal were finished, the music stopped immediately.
After drinking the hot soup, milk tea was served to the emperor and his concubines in turn to the sound of the palace opera troupe Nanfu Chengying Opera.
The emperor and his concubines drank tea while watching the play. After finishing their milk tea, the tea table was removed and the play stopped immediately.
This is when Ruyi asked, "Your Majesty, my sisters made dumplings by hand. Would you like to try some?"
Hongli nodded. He had just been drinking soup or milk tea, and was full just by drinking water.
I am so happy to be able to eat some hot dumplings now.
"Your Majesty, I can't offer much help. I only brought a pot of vinegar made from rose petals. Please try it."
