Chapter 431 Only Interested in Me
Nan Xi said, "No wonder the ministers of Dongling didn't think I looked familiar when they saw us."
"Even if there is a portrait, it doesn't matter. You are a descendant of the Xuanyuan royal family, and it is not surprising that you have a similar appearance to your ancestors." Rong Yu lowered his head and kissed her face, "Have you dreamed again these two days?"
"Yeah." Nan Xi nodded, silently looking up at him, "It's all your fault."
"It's my fault." Rong Yu pursed his lips, with an expression of admitting his mistakes and accepting punishment, "What did you dream about?"
"A lot." Nan Xi sighed, with a tone of regret, "Some repeated scenes are from previous dreams. I have seen it before, and I occasionally dream about it again these two days. From the first encounter to the close companionship, day and night... But I am actually quite surprised that you were born a ferocious wolf cub in your previous life, with a very arrogant temper. "
Rong Yu smiled: "If you are not a little bit ferocious and arrogant, how can you get the special look of the princess?"
The king sees too many people, servants in the mansion, sons and daughters of powerful families, elders of the royal clan, brothers and sisters of the clan, all kinds of people, either servile or flattering, or well-educated ladies, gentle and elegant sons of aristocratic families.
It is indeed rare to have a temper like Rong Huaijin in the previous life, who was born in a humble family but arrogant and unruly.
And Rong Yu, who was born at the pinnacle of power in this life and was noble and looked up to, is obviously completely different from his previous life.
Nan Xi asked, "Have you finished talking about your business?"
"Yes." Rong Yu sat down beside her, his voice soft, "I know what Xie Jin and the others are thinking, but I am not interested in the world, so it is normal for them to feel regretful. If our son has this courage, these people will be his most capable loyal ministers and generals."
Nan Xi was silent for a moment: "I also feel that Xie Jin and Xuanyuan Yao actually hope to follow you to expand the territory, conquer the world, and become a great and heroic emperor."
"If you are not even an emperor, how can you be a great and heroic emperor?" Rong Yu said softly, "I know what Xie Jin and Xuanyuan Yao are thinking, but I don't know what they are thinking, but I don't know what they are thinking, so ... Yu hugged her and said softly, "But if Xi'er is interested, I can also expand the territory for Xi'er, conquer the world, and become a heroic empress."
Nan Xi laughed: "How do you know that I am an ambitious person?"
Let alone Nan Xi in this life, even Jing Shu in the previous life had to govern the territory of Dongling only out of responsibility. She never thought of conquering the world. Besides, Dongling has a female emperor every two hundred years, isn't it because women have the softness of being content with the status quo?
Rong Yu's eyes were burning: "You can try to think about it."
Try to think about it?
Nan Xi really did what he said, and tried to frown and think about it. After a while, she slowly shook her head: "It's useless to think about it a hundred times. I have no interest in the world at all."
Rong Yu laughed: "I know, you are only interested in me."
Nan Xi was slightly surprised, and then looked at him quietly: "Rong Yu."
"Hmm?" Rong Yu said in a low voice, "Your Majesty."
"Do you need me to remind you again, please maintain your dignity as the regent."
"Majesty is for outsiders to see, what dignity do you need in front of Xi'er?" Rong Yu got up with Nan Xi in his arms and walked to the bed in the inner hall, "It's late at night, the spring night is short, we should do something beautiful and meaningful."
Nan Xi hugged his neck and reminded him softly: "Your injury has not healed yet..."
"It doesn't affect it." Rong Yu interrupted her softly, "Your husband has enough physical strength."
Nan Xi was embarrassed.
The two fell on the bed together.
The curtain fell, and the air warmed up.
The overlapping figures behind the dragon-patterned curtain were lingering, and the bright moon shone through the window, making the room charming.
It was a cold winter in December, with dry and cold weather.
One of the newly crowned couple was pregnant and needed to rest, while the other was seriously injured and needed to recuperate.
And because of the New Year, the empress issued an order to suspend the court, and officially resumed the morning court on the sixth day of the first lunar month after the New Year.
So Nan Xi and Rong Yu stayed in Dazheng Palace for the whole December, and they handled all the important affairs of the court that the chief assistant and the prime minister could handle. If they couldn't handle it, they would send someone to Dazheng Palace, and Rong Yu would make the final decision.
There was harmony and peace inside and outside the court.
However, the calm was just an illusion - or rather, such peace was only the peace of some people.
Xuanyuan Yao became busy, staying in the military camp for most of the month, and almost never went to the palace. Xie Jin seemed to be lingering in the flowers, but in fact, he used different methods every day to get the information he wanted from those young men.
Mo Lingan was busy receiving intelligence from all directions, and the tamed eagle in his hand also brought orders to the people of Jiuxiao Pavilion all over the country.
The situation in various countries is destined to change dramatically.
It was New Year's Eve in a blink of an eye.
According to the custom of the Dongling royal family, the emperor holds a banquet on New Year's Eve every year, and civil and military officials and royal relatives enter the palace to accompany the emperor to stay up all night, singing and dancing, and celebrating the peace and prosperity of Dongling.
This year is the first New Year's Eve after Nan Xi ascended the throne, so naturally he has to give some face to the ministers. Besides, Rong Yu's injury is no longer serious. After drinking the soup for half a month, almost even his breath tastes bitter.
The New Year's Day is the most important day of the year except for the coronation ceremony. No one would be stupid enough to find unhappiness on such an occasion, so the atmosphere is lively and cheerful, the ministers are happy, and the brilliant fireworks are set off almost all night.
Nan Xi sat on the dragon throne, her obsidian-like eyes reflecting the scene of the emperor and his subjects rejoicing together, the sky full of gorgeous fireworks, the stage singing operas about peace and prosperity, and a strong and gentle man accompanying her and protecting her.
Everything was so beautiful.
The only ones who were forced to stay in Dongling as guests were the Northern Frontier Crown Prince Duanmu Yu and the Southern Yue Prime Minister Su Chang. They were completely unable to blend into the festive atmosphere and their moods could not be improved.
However, whether they were in a good mood or not, the Dongling monarch and his ministers probably would not care, and they did not care.
After New Year's Eve is the New Year.
According to the rules of previous years, in addition to staying up all night, the ministers also need to go to the palace to pay New Year's greetings on the morning of the first day of the New Year. It is hard to be a minister, and it is not easy to sleep well all year round.
However, this year they met a pair of slightly willful masters.
When the New Year's Eve banquet ended at midnight, Nan Xi announced the end of the banquet and issued an order to exempt the ministers from the etiquette of paying New Year's greetings in the morning, so that they could stay at home to eat dumplings with their wives, families and children for a reunion.
Of course, Nan Xi and Rong Yu also ate dumplings, but they ate them in the Princess's Mansion. The two slept until the morning before getting up. After washing and dressing, they took a sedan chair out of the palace and went straight to the Princess's Mansion.
By the way, I called Xuanyuan Yao, who was left alone in the imperial capital and could not reunite with his parents.
Xuanyuan Xi got up early in the morning and made a lot of dumplings and glutinous rice balls with the cook in the mansion, and put the washed small silver coins into the dumplings. He said to the two people who had been staying in the deep palace to recuperate for days and closed the door: "Other families eat dumplings in the morning, are you two rushing to eat in the evening?"
Xuanyuan Yao hurriedly smoothed things over for the two people: "It's still early, not even noon."
