Chapter 778 Bad Eyes

  I heard that the emperor was obsessed with cleanliness and paid great attention to personal hygiene.

  But just now they saw the imperial concubine nibbling melon seeds with their own eyes. The melon seeds might have gotten her saliva, but the emperor was able to eat it without changing his face. Is this still a cleanliness? !

  I'm afraid this is not a fake cleanliness!

  The last day of the year has passed with the ringing of the bell in the hour.

  The New Year’s year is here!

  Everyone got up and congratulated the emperor on the new year.

  Luo Qinghan let people give out New Year rewards.

  In the voices of everyone, the emperor and noble concubine returned to Yunxiu Palace together.

  According to the palace rules, on New Year’s Eve, the emperor had to rest in the Jiaofang Hall.

   However, there is no owner in the middle palace now, and the Jiaofang Temple is empty, so the emperor naturally doesn't care about those things. He sleeps wherever he wants.

  On the morning of the first day of the new year, the emperor led the harem concubine, royal family members, and civil and military officials to worship the ancestors in Taimiao.

  An ancestor worship is a very cumbersome thing.

  Just kneel, you have to kneel for more than an hour.

  Xiao Xixi, as a noble concubine, is at the forefront of the female family, with countless pairs of eyes staring at her behind her. She can't do anything to be lazy, so she can only kneel down honestly.

   Fortunately, the emperor gave her an order in advance, letting people prepare a thick futon for her, which relieved her a little bit of pain.

  The officials of the Ministry of Rites stood on the high steps and chanted the sacrificial words loudly.

  The long sacrificial words seemed to be unable to pronounce, like half of a lullaby, making me feel dizzy, wishing to fall to the ground and fall asleep on the spot.

  After finally waiting for the end of the sacrifice, everyone got up.

  Prolonged kneeling, it is easy for people to feel dizzy at the moment of getting up. If you are not in good health during the week, you may even pass out on the spot.

  Fortunately, everyone’s perseverance is very strong, no matter how groggy, they still gritted their teeth and stood up, and there was no ignorance.

  The next step is the Shangxiang link.

  The Queen Mother is very old. She has not participated in the New Year's ancestor worship in recent years. In the past, the Queen Qin replaced her with incense and worshipped the ancestors. Now that there is no queen, this errand has naturally fallen on the noble concubine.

  After the emperor finished offering incense, it was Xiao Xixi's turn.

  Regularly, she inserted the three sticks of incense into the incense burner, knelt down and worshiped for three more times, stood up with the help of Baoqin, and retreated behind the emperor.

  Next there will be blessings and divination sessions.

  The so-called blessing is to pray for good weather and prosperity in the coming year.

  Inquiry is to use the means of divination and fortune telling to ask God whether the national fortune of the Dasheng Dynasty this year is good or bad?

  These were arranged by the Ministry of Rites and the Qintian Supervisor a long time ago. No matter how the calculation is done, the final result is definitely good.

  To put it bluntly, these are just going through the scenes, in order to stabilize the people's hearts.

  When the whole ancestor worship ceremony is completed, it is already afternoon.

  The crowd returned to the palace in a carriage.

  Xiao Xixi still rides in the same carriage with the emperor.

  There were only two of them in the car. Xiao Xixi didn't need to hesitate to lift up the skirt and trouser legs, revealing red knees and calves.

   She pursed her mouth and mumbled: "It hurts."

  Luo Qinghan held her white slender legs, lowered her head, and blew two breaths on her knees.

   "It doesn't hurt anymore."

  Xiao Xixi immediately lifted up another trouser leg: "There is also this side."

  Luo Qinghan did not whistle this time, but directly kissed her on her knees.

  Xiao Xixi blushed, and hummed, "I just made you whirr, why did you kiss me?"

  Luo Qinghan: "If you want to kiss, you can kiss, no reason."

   is very confident.

  Xiao Xixi went to touch his leg: "You have been kneeling for so long, and your leg should also hurt? I'll help you."

   Luo Qinghan: "It's okay, I'm used to it."

  An ancestor worship is an indispensable part every year. He has to go through it once a year since he was a child, and he has long been accustomed to it.

  He opened a secret compartment in the car and took out a bottle of medicated oil.

  He poured medicated oil into his palm, rubbed it, and covered it on Xixi’s calf, rubbing it slowly.

  Xiao Xixi took a breath: "It hurts!"

  Luo Qinghan: "Hold it up, it will be fine later."

  He didn't deceive, and the pain disappeared after a while, replaced by a cool feeling.

  Xiao Xixi asked in surprise: "What kind of medicinal oil is this? It works so fast."

  Luo Qinghan: "It was specially prepared by Fang Wujiu for you."

  After rubbing this leg, rub that leg again.

  After kneading both legs, Luo Qinghan wiped off his hands, collected the medicated oil, looked up, and saw that Xiao Xixi had fallen asleep leaning against the car wall for some time.

  She woke up before dawn to dress up and dressed up. She had been busy for a long time with ancestor worship. She was already exhausted. She couldn't help but fall asleep before returning to the palace.

  Luo Qinghan cautiously took the person over and asked her to rest her head on her shoulder.

  After returning to the palace, Xiao Xixi was carried on the bed by the emperor.

  She turned over and continued to sleep.

  Unfortunately, she was called up after not sleeping long.

  Time to prepare for the dinner.

  Xiao Xixi lay on the bed, holding the quilt and refused to get up.

  Baoqin and Drizzle worked together to **** the quilt.

  Even if he lost his favorite quilt, Xiao Xixi still refused to get up. The determined posture, like a nail house, was firmly nailed to the bed.

  Baoqin and Drizzle had no choice but to make persistent efforts, and it took a lot of effort to pull the nail household out of the bed.

  Xiao Xixi was almost carried to the dressing table.

  The ladies of the palace circled her, groomed her, and waited for her to change clothes and shoes.

  She didn't know how she left Yunxiu Palace, let alone how she arrived at Country Pavilion.

  Anyway, when she came back to her senses, the banquet had already begun. There were many royal family members sitting below, and next to her was the emperor, and on the other side of the emperor was the empress dowager.

  The family members got up to toast to the emperor one after another, wishing the emperor all the best in the new year, peace and prosperity.

  The emperor raised a glass of wine, which was regarded as a response.

  Xiao Xixi also drank a drink.

  This wine is not high in concentration, it is like a fruit wine, not spicy, and a bit sweet.

  As soon as she put down her wine glass, she heard the emperor next to her whisper.

"Woke up?"

  Xiao Xixi looked at Luo Qinghan and smiled embarrassedly.

"Um."

  Luo Qinghan gently squeezed her hand, and whispered: "Thanks for your hard work."

  Originally Xiao Xixi was a little bit angry to get up, but now she is no longer a bit angry.

  No matter how hard she worked, there was no emperor's hard work.

  Xiao Xixi first served the emperor a bowl of soup, and then served himself a bowl of soup.

  After drinking the soup, Xiao Xixi was about to pick up vegetables, but keenly noticed that there was an unkind gaze looking at this side.

  The position she is in is a bit higher than all the guests present, and the faces of everyone present can be easily seen here.

  At this time, she glanced over, and quickly found the source of that bad look.

  ……

  Good morning everyone~

    stretched out her little hand and asked for a monthly pass~~~
