    "Wen Wan, I want the prince and the others to come as guests in the future. But you have to tell me in advance. I was so scared just now that I didn't dare to say a word." Shang Tang's heart was still beating loudly at this understanding.

    "The princess said, this will happen frequently from now on. What do you have to be afraid of? The young master will have to adapt to it in the future." Xia Ying couldn't help but laugh.  Then order people to clean up this place.

    An hour later, both princes¡¯ palaces sent gifts.  There were more than ten pieces of black fox skin, green fox skin, mink skin, lynx skin, etc. Wen Wan couldn't laugh or cry when she saw them, so she had no choice but to have them collected in the warehouse.  Then let them find a dozen leathers in the warehouse that are worse than these.  We hired a craftsman to polish the leather smooth.

    "Hey, Princess, please be careful." Wen Wan called Xia Qing, who was the best at needlework, to guide her one by one on what to do.  Seeing that Xia Qing was doing well, he took a needle and thread and sewed two stitches himself.  Grandma Gu looked at it and screamed in surprise.

    There¡¯s nothing to say about Wen Wan¡¯s needlework skills.  As soon as you pick up the needle and thread, your hands have to have holes.  Fortunately, Xia Qing is very smart. After explaining it all morning, he basically already knew it.  Then Wen Wan asked her to teach several other people who specialize in needlework.  It is best to get the items out within five days.  Several embroiderers and maids worked overtime and finished the clothes in four days.

    Wenwan touched the leather jacket, no, it should be a modern leather raincoat.  The leather raincoat had a hood and a wide body. Wen Wan called a man about the same height as King Zheng to correct it.  Then, he took half of the twenty or so leathers that had been sent and hired a skilled craftsman to polish them even better than before.  I also asked the sewing girls at home to continue working overtime.  Try to get it out before the New Year.  Also search for alternatives.  Let Xia Ying draw the drawings and make high-bucket boots, with the outer layer made of real leather.  No water will enter, and the inside is full of soft and thick fur.  Wear it in winter, very warm.

    On this day, Wen Wan still accompanied the emperor.  The emperor reviewed the memorial for a long time, stretched out his hand, knocked his hands, and muttered that he was getting old, his waist and legs ached.  When Wen Wan heard the news and knew what she meant, she hurriedly climbed up to him and slapped her on the back.  But the craftsmanship is really not that good.

    "What have you been busy with lately? I've only been back for a few days. I've lost a lot of weight." The emperor looked at Wen Wan and asked somewhat unhappily.

    Wen Wan said that she has been taking care of herself recently!

    "The marriage in Ping Shang Tang and some matters in Zhuangzi. Just leave it to others, you are just a girl in the boudoir. Now I have just recovered from illness. What are you doing with those things when you are tired every day? Don't you?  With your help, he won't be able to get a wife." The emperor looked at Wen Wan.  Somewhat distressed.

    Wen Wan shook her head, indicating that she was not too careless.  At this time, I am trying to make myself taller and fatter.  But the emperor is willing to believe it.  This girl is responsible for many things in the mansion.  At this time.  The eunuch who served tea brought tea to the emperor.  Wen Wan hurriedly took it and served it.

    "You're a busy kid. The daughter of any family doesn't sit in a boudoir painting red paintings, but you have no time to do it. You have to worry about everything." After hearing this, Wen Wan was not only not annoyed, but smiled stupidly.  With.  He said that such a day would be fulfilling, and asking her to embroider all day long would cost her her life.

    Thinking of his gentle temper, the emperor stopped talking.

    When Wen Wan returned to her home, she immediately asked someone to bring a human body chart to study the acupuncture points and their functions. She also asked the famous masseuse who had just been invited over.  Teach yourself.  Wen Wan decided to study hard.  Learn deeply and learn deeply.

    The people below spent nearly ten days and finally used a piece of lynx skin.  Made a modern version of raincoat, rain pants and high boots for King Zheng.

    "Your Majesty, the princess invites you to go to the princess's mansion. She said she has a gift for you." Butler Lin looked happy.  I guess the prince must have been very happy when he heard the princess said there was a gift.  Butler Lin thought, the princess said there was a gift, but the gift was usually something they could not imagine.  Because the princess is too unconventional.

    "Oh. Haha, you asked me for a lot of leather some time ago. I guess it has something to do with the leather." This was the first time that King Zheng heard Wen Wan take the initiative to ask for something from him. Now, he said that he had a gift for himself.  But it just reminded him of that skinny incident.

    When Wen Wan saw Prince Zheng, she proudly asked someone to take out the leather raincoat, rain pants and high boots.  King Zheng looked at the strange raincoat and couldn't laugh or cry. Looking at the high boots again, he even laughed.  Wen Wan quickly asked Xia Ying to explain the difference between the two things.

    "Okay, if Wen Wan spends so much money, what gift should uncle give you?" King Zheng did not offend Wen Wan, and asked Wen Wan what gift he wanted with a smile.

    Seeing that he was not interested in her gift, Wenwan was very upset and ignored him.  He had put so much effort into this, but he still treated himself as a child, which was really annoying.  Let¡¯s stop with the gift-giving.

      Originally I was planning to get one like this for the emperor¡¯s grandfather, but now, forget it.

    Purchasing New Year¡¯s goods, collecting rent, and communicating with people.  There are so many things, time flies by quickly, and it¡¯s the Chinese New Year.

    ?According to the rules, the emperor hosted the ministers for New Year¡¯s Eve dinner on New Year¡¯s Eve.  Naturally, Wen Wan planned to celebrate the New Year in the palace just like last year.  Just like last year, I have been sitting in Yanghe Hall reading, unwilling to come out.  It's just that this time is different from last year. Last year, she fell ill on this day.  So it seemed that everyone didn¡¯t eat well that New Year¡¯s Eve dinner.  At this moment, Wen Wan really doesn't want to go.  It was Eunuch Wen who urged me three times.

    Wen Wan opened her eyes wide and asked, "The princess asked, is it not a mistake to invite the ministers to a banquet, or what she was asked to do at the previous banquet? It seems that the concubines and other women in the harem are not allowed to participate!"

    Eunuch Wen could tell from his glance that Princess Wen Wan was unwilling to attend the banquet and didn't know what to say.  She disliked this banquet that everyone wanted to attend.  Is there anything more unacceptable than this?  However, Eunuch Wen has finally settled the matter. "Princess, this is a banquet for the royal family, nobles and important ministers. The emperor has issued an imperial edict for you to go with us. You go with me, otherwise I will not be able to do business. The emperor said  You will take responsibility, Princess, go with me!"

    Wen Wan couldn¡¯t avoid it and was about to go out.  Then I saw Eunuch Wen calling and coming in.  People outside came in with clothes and accessories.  Wenwan looked up to God, what is this, everything is ready.  It wouldn¡¯t be possible if she didn¡¯t participate!  and.  A woman also came with him, and that woman came to put makeup on him.  The emperor's words must make Wenwan look full of vitality.  Don't let her make yourself miserable.

    After Wen Wan finished it, she looked at the pretty little girl in the mirror. If it had been anyone else, she would have exclaimed in admiration.  What a lovely little girl.  But this little girl is herself, which is worthy of suspicion.  She had just recovered from a serious illness, how could she look so good.  This lack of clarity made everyone doubt her.  Wen Wan didn't know what the emperor's grandfather was thinking, and felt a little depressed.  But since it is an imperial edict, we have to obey it.

    Wenwan changed her clothes.  out.  Seeing the emperor waiting for her, he nodded when he saw her outfit, saying that this is how a girl should dress.

    Wen Wan pouted her mouth, looking very reluctant.  The emperor smiled, took her little hands and went out.

    Out of Yanghe Hall.  I saw a luxurious bright yellow car waiting for me.  As soon as the emperor went out, a eunuch immediately squatted down and put his hands on the ground.  Wen Wan looked at the ground, it was snowing now.  The ground was freezing cold. It was freezing cold.  Just put your hands on the ground and don't worry about frostbite.  Looking up, he saw the emperor stepping on the eunuch's back, holding Eunuch Wen's hand and pushing him away.

    Eunuch Wen looked at Wen Wan and said with a smile, "Princess, please come to me."

    Wen Wan opened her mouth, no.  No way.  Let her sit down with the emperor's grandfather.  Forget it, I won¡¯t sit still even if I kill her, she doesn¡¯t want to be so eye-catching!  So he shook his head very firmly.

    "Wen Wan, come up, the courtiers are waiting in the main hall! Get on the sedan and fetch them." The emperor sat down and looked at Wen Wan, waving his hands and refusing to go up.  exclaimed with a smile.

    Wen Wan refused very simply, making an international joke, although she didn¡¯t know what would happen if she was kicked out of the sedan chair.  But one thing Wen Wan knew clearly was that if she sat in the emperor's grandfather's sedan chair, her life might be taken if old scores were revealed.  Wenwan takes good care of her little head.  Study outside this year.  For the imperial power, that is a more thorough and in-depth understanding.  Just say that as a royal, you can kill people at will.  And the emperor.  It is even more supreme.  How can the emperor's things be shared?  It's the same as getting on a sedan chair and driving him out.  Such a thing.  Definitely don't do it.  Doubts flashed in Wen Wan's heart, what did Grandpa Emperor mean?  I want her to be reincarnated as soon as possible.

    The emperor looked at Wen Wan like this, he just said it casually.  For the emperor, it was nothing more than letting Wen Wan stay aside.  Wenwan is a foreign surname and she is a woman, so there is no taboo at all.  Of course, the fundamental reason is that the emperor favors her, otherwise, this would be the most taboo thing.

    Wen Wan quickly wrote: "Your Majesty, the princess said that she was afraid of being drowned by spit, and asked Your Majesty, for the sake of her life, please carry a warm sedan out and let her sit on it! If you really insist on it,  , she just sat on the ground and couldn't pull herself up. "This is quite a shameless behavior.

    The emperor laughed and scolded, "You girl, you have a lot to do. Forget it, you can just sit in the warm sedan chair!" Since Wen Wan was unwilling, thinking of Wen Wan's timid temperament, the emperor gave up.

    Within two minutes, a warm sedan was brought over.  Wen Wan secretly said, this work efficiency is extremely high.  She didn't know that Eunuch Wen was afraid that she might not ride in the emperor's sedan chair, so he specially prepared it for her.  Because Princess Wenwan¡¯s temperament is really different from ordinary people.  He had to think more.

    Wen Wan looked at the brocade sedan with purple gold roof, and she didn¡¯t refuse the meeting.He got in very neatly.  As soon as I got in, I saw a fire inside, which was very warm.  There were several plates of warm pastries placed next to it.  In view of the experience of attending the emperor's 60th birthday, Wen Wan decided very neatly to stay until she was seventy percent full, so as not to end the banquet and be starved again.  It's really warm to sit in the warm sedan, and I guess you won't feel cold even if you sit there for several hours.

    As soon as Wen Wan was done, she heard the sedan chair rising.  The sedan got up very smoothly.  On the road, Wen Wan didn't feel any bumps at all, and sighed in her heart that her skills were excellent.  Also take advantage of this opportunity.  I ate as much as I could until I was almost six minutes full before I gave up.

    The sedan arrived at Wende Hall, and Wen Wan got off the sedan.  I saw Eunuch Wen helping the emperor down.  Wen Wan stepped forward and took the initiative to hold the emperor's hand and walked into the Hall of Wende. This was her second time attending such an important banquet.  The emperor looked at her specifically and saw that Wen Wan was not panicked.  It seemed as if it was normal to enter the Yanghe Palace in the past, but he smiled.  I don¡¯t know if this girl will shrink back after staying in for a while.

    Wenwan looked at the main hall decorated with palace lanterns and colorful flags fluttering all around.  The hall is even more brilliantly lit, as bright as day.  The palace is even more dazzling in the dark night, illuminated by dazzling lights.

    "Your Majesty has arrived!" The clear voice of the eunuch passed through the palace.

    Wen Wan followed the emperor step by step into the tall pavilion.  Step into the palace gate.  All the noble officials in the palace stood up and knelt down to salute, "Long live my emperor, long live the emperor."

    Wen Wan was about to kneel down, but when she saw Eunuch Wen shook his head towards her.  With the emperor holding her hand, Wen Wan didn't quite understand what this rule was.  So he lowered his head and pretended to be stupid.  It seems that the palace regulations need to be studied carefully.  The things I learned before were still not thorough enough.

    "Everyone loves you." The emperor waved his hand, walked up to the highest position in the palace, and sat on the dragon chair.  Wen Wan followed closely, taking a quick glance to see where he was.  fainted.  You won't let yourself stand all night, your legs will be numb.  He looked at the emperor pitifully.

    After the people below got up, they still looked at Wen Wan beside the emperor.  Many people are muttering in their hearts, Princess Huanggui.  He is really favored by the emperor.  For such an important feast, the emperor still took the princess to attend.

    "Go down and sit at Lao Ba's place." Wen Wan heard this.  Then he bowed to the emperor and walked down.  Scan at will.  I was stunned, why were there so many people in the main hall!  Several princes are here.  There are also Prince Chun and Prince Hao.  Prince Zhi, Duke Zhen, Duke Ping, my uncle, several ministers and many others.  The people present were all dignitaries and high-ranking ministers.

    ¡°However, it¡¯s much better than Wen Wan imagined.  Because there are several imperial concubines under the throne, and Concubine Xian and Concubine De are naturally there.  The Concubine Xian was dressed in a crimson palace dress, with a wind bun and misty hairpins on her temples, making her look graceful and luxurious.  Sitting next to her is Siyue, who is also dressed up very well today.  It looks like the jade girl sitting down with Guanyin Bodhisattva.

    ??????????????? Concubine De, dressed as if she was deliberately in conflict with Concubine Xian.  Wearing a sky blue palace dress, the corners of the skirt are embroidered with fine orchids.  There is only an exquisite jasper hairpin on the head, decorated with thin silver wire beaded tassels.  Apply a thin layer of powder on face.  Under the illumination of the palace lanterns, her skin looked even more like gelatin.

    There are also several women. Although Wen Wan is not familiar with these women, they all know each other. They are all the women of the emperor's grandfather.  Today, these women are all dressed up very well.  The most beautiful among them is only twenty-one years old and one of the nine concubines.  Twenty-one years old is the age when flowers bloom like jade.  Wen Wan felt very sorry for it at that time.  The emperor's grandfather is sixty-five this year, and she is now in her prime, a poor woman.

    Wen Wan looked at all the women who appeared and understood.  No wonder the emperor's grandfather had to change his clothes.  It's not ugly to wear the previous clothes, but it's not suitable for such a banquet.  That's fine. Anyway, I wasn't worried about it before, thinking that she was the only woman participating.  That's too eye-catching.  Wen Wan feels that we should do things in a high profile and behave in a low profile.

    As soon as Wen Wan came in, all the officials in the hall were looking at this now popular figure, Princess Wen Wan.  I thought that after being ill for a year at Zhuangzi, the emperor would be cold-hearted no matter what.  But unexpectedly, the emperor still loved the princess as always, even more than before.  Nowadays, he comes to the palace to accompany him every day, and if there is any good thing, the first one who thinks of rewarding it must be Princess Huanggui.

    We all knew before that the princess' condition was getting better, but because Wen Wan stayed at home except in the palace, she didn't go out.  I don¡¯t know how to say this is great.  At this moment, I finally met the man who was rumored to be dying of illness and is now well.

    "I saw Princess Wenwan wearing a flying fairy bun, with a jade dragon and phoenix hairpin inserted in the bun, a jade phoenix hairpin, and a dragon and phoenix bracelet on her hand.  Wearing a golden embroidered dress with phoenix dancing in the skyIn the court dress, the waist is tied with an exquisite jade belt, and thin pearl tassels hang down from both sides of the waist of the jade belt.  Her skin is as white as a freshly peeled egg. Under her curved eyebrows, a pair of bright almond-shaped eyes twinkle like stars, as if they can speak.  The small red lips and the white color of the skin are more distinct; the face is like a hibiscus, and the shallow smile is as cute as a fairy. The whole person is shining with dazzling light under the dim light.

    If it weren't for the collar engraved with a phoenix hanging around my neck at this time, as well as the red gold lock plate, the crisp sound it made when shaking gave me a little more of the fireworks of the world, otherwise I would definitely let him go.  People misunderstand that they are little fairies who come out of nowhere.

    With Wen Wan¡¯s appearance, it was as if all the light was focused on her.  Everyone has become a foil.  Even the concubine, who was recognized as a beautiful woman, had to shine under her light.

    Many people nodded in agreement, praising that Princess Huanggui was truly worthy of being Princess Huanggui.  From the look of her complexion, it seemed that Princess Huanggui had really recovered.  Moreover, he finally had the noble aura that a member of the royal family should have.  But in my heart, I was really doubting.  It¡¯s not that he was seriously ill. He has been able to recover from his illness so miraculously.  This spirit is not even better than that of ordinary people. Besides, there are people who have taken care of themselves to be so high.

    King Zheng looked at Wen Wan's outfit, and his stern face softened.  He nodded slightly, expressing great satisfaction.  Only this kind of makeup, coupled with this flawless smile, and this calm expression, is the most perfect.  It can also match the gentle identity.  This girl has finally grown up.  There is no need for him to worry.

    Su Xiang looked at Wen Wan and saw that Wen Wan was always smiling in front of so many powerful and powerful ministers in the hall, without blinking or fear, so she walked down slowly.  Such momentum and determination are not something ordinary people can achieve.  What puzzled him was that according to his understanding of Wen Wan, normally, Wen Wan would never appear in front of everyone in this form.  But now Wen Wan is not shying away, and even has an air of arrogance, as if she is explaining something.  An illness cannot change a person's demeanor.

    King Chun looked at it, then looked at his son who was looking around boredly. He was stunned when he saw Wen Wan.  But he soon turned his eyes elsewhere.  King Chun sighed secretly in his heart.  It would be great if Wen Wan could really be his daughter-in-law.

    Prince Hao looked at Wen Wan. There were a total of forty or fifty people in the hall, under the gaze of so many people.  Wen Wan is still calm and composed, as if all eyes are not there.  There are only a few people who can achieve such momentum and indifference.  No wonder the emperor loved him like a jewel.  That's why I wasn't afraid at all when facing myself.

    King Zhao squeezed the cup tightly.  Father, what does this mean?  Wearing dragon and phoenix hairpins, phoenix hairpins, and dragon and phoenix bracelets?  Why is this girl allowed to wear a golden court dress embroidered with phoenixes dancing in the sky? That's all.  Why let this girl appear in this form? It seems to be to build momentum for her.  What does father mean?  Does your father love this girl so much?  King Zhao looked at his mother and concubine's expression, and saw that she had been sitting like a Bodhisattva.  There was no change in his expression from beginning to end.  He also quickly calmed himself down.

    Wen Wan didn¡¯t know the people below. When she came down, everyone below had their own thoughts.  He just walked towards Prince Zheng's position with a smile.

    She passed by King Zhou in the middle and saw King Zhou smiling at her, and she smiled back (because it was a New Year¡¯s Eve banquet, and King Zhao¡¯s plea, the emperor specially ordered him to come to this year¡¯s banquet/But when he went back, he still  have to be locked up).  Passing by Prince Ning, Prince Ning's face was calm and expressionless.  When passing by King Zhao, King Zhao actually had a smile on his face.  Wenwan naturally responded with a smile.  That smile was very kind, as if you were treating an elder in your own family.  King Zhao was stunned.

    Yan Qixuan looked at such a dazzling person, lowered his head and asked his father, "Father, didn't you say that Wen Wan went to recuperate? Why is she so radiant now? How can this be a person who has just recovered from a serious illness?"  Looking like this, you are more energetic than everyone present?"

    King Chun looked at his son and said with a smile, "The rumors outside are wrong. Wen Wan was already well as early as August. It was just not announced to the public. In the past few months, he has taken good care of his body." Want his son  Knowing that Wen Wan is Fu Xi, I don¡¯t know what will happen?  Hey, that's what gave him a headache.  King Chun looked at Wen Wan. This girl had such charm at such a young age. She coaxed her son so much that he didn't know what he would be like when he grew up.
