”Today is New Year's Eve. We will guard the year together with all of you. There is no need for any of you to be apart.”

Jin Chuyi's face was full of smiles, he looked very amiable, but the prestige of an emperor could not be concealed, and in the entire imperial court, who would dare not follow the etiquette of a sovereign, naturally no one would believe it.

After a few sounds of agreement, he no longer dared to make a sound.

”You two envoys don't have to be so formal. If you have any inconvenience, feel free to speak to me.”

Liu Yuanheng and Sima Hong had not been able to see the emperor for a few days and knew that he was purposely hiding from discussing the matter of exchanging food. However, this year, it was raining heavily in the east and not much rain fell in the west. Only the mining and horse harvests were not good, so the prices offered by the Easternum and the others were the limit of what they could offer.

But, at this moment, Jin Chuyi did not mention anything about exchanging food.

Liu Yuanheng was not in a rush, because the Qian Family had already agreed to help him, so he naturally suggested the trade basis. Sima Hong, however, was not confident. This Jade Concubine promised that she would find the Emperor and ask him to agree to exchange food. However, he didn't dare to completely believe in this woman.

At this time, it was difficult for him to talk to Jin Chuyi, of course Sima Hong would not let him off, he got up and cupped his fists as he spoke.

”The emperor's official is not being reserved anymore. I have rough skin and thick flesh, so I definitely do not lack anything. However, my Easternum does lack food.”

Jin Chuyi was originally quite courteous, he did not expect Sima Hong to speak of this matter in such a casual manner.

The basis of the trade he offered was the lowest in recent years, so he was unable to agree to it. Even when Yu Fei told him about it several times, it was as if Jin Chuyi didn't know it.

”Sir Si Ma, today is supposed to be a joyous day with the other officials. Today, let's not talk about this anymore. We'll talk about it properly next time.” Sima Hong wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he decided not to. On the other side, he did not see Yu Fei winking at him.

”Your majesty, it's the new year, so I can feel more at ease with your words, can't I?”

When Yu Fei saw how ignorant Sima Hong was, and how the emperor's expression had clearly changed, she felt a little apprehensive.

”Your majesty, this Sima Hong doesn't know anything, please don't lower yourself to the same level as him.”

Sima Hong still wanted to say something, but was stared at by Yu Fei's glare and could only groan as he sat down on his seat.

”Your majesty, on such a happy day, Chenqie will pour you a cup of wine.”

Jin Chuyi looked at Yu Fei, not mentioning that Sima Hong was from Easternum, everyone was watching him, he did not want to give his any face, so he raised his head and drank his wine.

Seeing Jin Chuyi drink the wine, Yu Fei relaxed a little. At least the emperor did not leave her face here. The stiffness on Jin Chuao's face had also lessened somewhat.

With this disturbance, Sun Jinzi's body was drenched in cold sweat. Seeing that the situation had finally quieted down, she secretly heaved a sigh of relief. When she raised her head, she saw Jin Chupei looking at him with a funny look, and couldn't help but glare at him.

Seeing that Jin Chuxuan was also looking this way, Sun Jinzi immediately lowered her head.

Qian Linxi was in fact quite excited. Just as he was about to laugh, he was drank up by Liushi. However, there was still a bright smile in his eyes.

Every time Jin Chuxuan saw more of Sun Jinzi, he would feel a little more at ease, as if it was no longer the possessive desire he had originally just because he didn't want to lose to Jin Chupei.

Most of the time, Zhuang Fei's gaze was focused on her son. Seeing that his gaze seemed to be wandering over to Duke of Qian's table, she couldn't help but have some calculations in her heart.

”Duke of Qian, when you came, you didn't tell us, so we didn't know either. ”When you leave, you must tell me that I'll send you off.”

Qian Junhao saw Jin Chuyi raise his glass and quickly stood up as well. Your Majesty, it was this Old official's fault.

”Alright, Duke of Qian's elegance is no less than it was back then.”

Seeing that the emperor was so flattering, the various officials were naturally full of praise as well. Sun Fuping's face was full of awkwardness, and looking at Prime Minister Zhong, his face was also stiff, but he kept smiling without saying anything.

But thinking that Qian Junhao would be back in a few days, he felt better.

Seeing that Jin Chuyi and Duke of Qian were happily chatting with each other, he had a plan in his heart. He lightly pursed his lips, then picked up the wine pot and filled it up for Jin Chuyi.

”Your majesty, this year is about to pass. Take a look at this Huang'er's marriage …”

Jin Chuyi took the wine cup and glanced at Yu Fei. The coldness in her eyes caused her to freeze.

Lifei's voice was not soft, and everyone who was close to the front could hear her clearly. Sun Jinzi only lowered her head and did not say anything, and just as she was about to get up, she was stopped by Liushi.

”royal father, childrens also feels that this marriage is a good opportunity for Duke of Qian to come and discuss it.”

Originally, Yu Fei was only discussing, but when it came to Jin Chuao, it was openly said. That tall and straight figure was standing in the middle of the grand hall.

Since the Queen had been crippled, Yu Fei was undoubtedly one of the hottest candidates for the Queen. This First Prince had naturally become the focus of attention of many of the capital's Lady.
