Chapter 505 Congratulations on the New Jubilee

On the city gate tower, he congratulated the New Year to the people in the city. After having fun with the people, Li Dancai led his ministers back to the palace to have a banquet. When he arrived in the Delinde Hall, he sat down with the seat. The prince was still on the left and Princess Taiping was on the right, but there was no difference between high and low.

Li Longji's expression was as usual. Seeing this, a few of the ministers in the court frowned secretly. Although he endured it and didn't say much, he looked dissatisfied.

Zhang Changzong sat down in his seat. As soon as he sat down, he looked at the person sitting opposite him and his face collapsed instantly.

There are righteous ministers like Yao Chong and Song Jing in the world, and there are naturally flatterers. The smile on their faces is almost like a chrysanthemum. Moreover, this person is a person known to Zhang Changzong. He fought when he was a child. The Secretariat of the current dynasty, Cui Shi, the number one flatterer under his mother-in-law.

This guy was obviously a Jinshi, but he was very unconventional. When he was a child, he bullied people and became a fence-bearer when he was old. He would surrender to whoever was in power in the court. When Wu Sansi of the Wu family gained power, he was a lackey under Wu Sansi. Wu Sansi lost power and surrendered to Empress Wei. Now Empress Wei loses power and comes to surrender to Princess Taiping again.

Zhang Changzong despised his character very much and did not look good every time he met him. Similarly, the other party did not like him. The two were almost disgusted with each other. The problem is that they are of the same rank. Although one is sitting on the military minister's seat and the other is sitting on the civil servant's seat, they just sit on the same rank... This is the Chinese New Year, and it doesn't make people feel good, vomiting, or vomiting, but they don't want to eat sourness.

Cui Shi was so shameless that even bowed his hands and smiled at him. Zhang Changzong had a stern face and had no mood to smile at him. His movements were so standard that he could be used as etiquette. He was just a stern ceremony. After that, he was as if there was no such person in his sight. When the singing and dancing came up, there was a stern dance in the middle. When the sight was blocked, he felt that his eyes were less hurt.

Accompanied by music and dance, Li Dan and his sons stood up to congratulate him on the happy New Year. The prince Li Longji was in the third place, but he was the only one. However, after Li Longji stood up, he looked at King Song and smiled and said, "Brother, please lead the brothers to congratulate him to your father together!"

King Song was stunned and hurriedly said, "How can this be made? The crown prince is the crown prince of the country and is in a respectful position. It is the crown prince who leads his ministers and others."

Li Longji immediately said: "Brother, I was the prince in the past, but now, it is just a few of our brothers who congratulate their father on the New Year. It is the ranking. I know everything about my brother treating my brother. However, at this moment, I hope that brother will not refuse."

The two brothers pushed each other for a long time, and Li Dan looked at them with a smile. Seeing that their sons were so humble and polite, they obviously felt good.

The civil and military rulers and ministers of the court looked at the emperor's sons, brothers and brothers, but Princess Taiping saw that the two gave in for a long time, then smiled and said, "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, Your Majesty is kind and has a group of good men under your knees. Today, everyone has seen it. Please ask Your Majesty to open a golden mouth and avoid the two princes and brothers. Good days, don't miss the auspicious time."

Li Dan smiled and nodded happily: "My sister is right, Dalang, Sanlang, don't give in to your aunt anymore. Today is a state banquet. It is the crown prince's leader. The family banquet will come to Dalang's residence. Do you understand?"

"Yes, thank you for your teachings, I will obey the order."

Afterwards, the two saluted Princess Taiping together: "Thank you aunt."

Princess Taiping smiled on her face, and she didn't even accept the gift from Prince Song, but even the gift from Prince Li Longji. She sat upright and said with a smile: "Dalang, Sanlang is polite, why should I worship me? You should worship your father first."

Li Dan looked at him with a smile on his face, not seeming to think there is anything wrong.

"Here."

The King of Song did not see any strangeness, and the prince's face did not show any strangeness. The two bowed to Li Dan together to congratulate the New Year, and only after they were finished, they would return to their own seats.

With this, the banquet was quite pleasant. I drank a few more cups with Li Dan. Although his eyes were clear and he was not drunk and had lost his mind, his face was already bright red. When Li Dan saw it, he kept her in the palace and never let her go out of the palace and return home.

Zhang Changzong has always been very home-made for drinking. The Tang Dynasty's alcohol content was not high. Even on the wedding night, he had never been drunk. He maintained restraint and rationality, and was still clear today. He originally planned to escort his mother-in-law back to the house, but when he saw her staying in the palace, he had to go home by himself. After leaving the palace, he jumped on his horse before the horse stud, and took the servant home.

"Liulang is back!"

It was Lai Cai who stood at the door and greeted her in a close look, wearing a new dress and smiling. Seeing him, Zhang Changzong also laughed and shouted intimately: "Uncle Cai, why are you here to welcome her in the old age? Where is the hammer? What did he do? Why did you still work hard?"

Since returning from Northern Xinjiang, Zhang Changzong helped Huawei and his family get rid of their bad family. Huawei only appreciated his kindness, and the family still works under him, very loyal and capable.

Lai Cai said with a smile: "I haven't seen Liulang for many years. The old slave is so anxious that I can't use Lao slaves at the side. So I thought about coming to welcome Liulang. Seeing that Liulang is in good condition, Lao slave will feel relieved."

He even called himself a slave, which is thankful for his old gratitude.

Zhang Changzong's smile became much gentler and his voice softened: "Uncle Cai, do you want to Huawei? They went a little further and it will take time to come back."

As he said that, he couldn't help but feel a little apologized: "Japan is a day of reunion, so Uncle Lai Cai's family cannot be reunited."

Lai Cai hurriedly denied it and said, "What is Liulang saying! Huawei's master value is his blessing. If a man is in great age, he will not do things. Even if he is in front of his slave every day, he will be in front of his slave. As long as the children do things with their heart, he will feel happy even if he doesn't see him for many years."

Zhang Changzong nodded repeatedly when he heard this and said, "I underestimate Uncle Cai. It's time for me to punish me. Let's not stand here. It's cold weather. Go in quickly. Sit with everyone, have a good chat, and reminisce about the past. Let's go, come on Uncle Cai."

"Why!"

When I saw Zhang Changzong smiling, I felt very comfortable when I saw him feeling kind and respectful. I also had a higher opinion of the old master's young master. This is the demeanor of the real family.

Lai Cai watched him grow up since childhood, Zhang Changzong treated him as an elder and did not let him fall behind. He helped him with his hand and pulled him into the door. In the main hall, there were also banquets in the mansion today. The singing and dancing silk and bamboo have been removed, and they sat in separate seats, gathered together to talk and laugh.

Baoning was held in his arms by his sister-in-law and started pecking rice with chickens, but he still forced himself to stay up to the next year. Except for his nephews who were far away as officials who could not get back, his brothers and uncles were all here today. When he saw him in, the second uncle said haha: "Liulang is back! Come on, come on, full, full, full, family dinner has officially begun! By the way, Liulang, how many more can he have?"

Zhang Changzong smiled and strode over, bowing as he walked: "I'm sorry, uncle is waiting for me, let's not talk about anything else, I'll punish myself for three glasses when I'm late. I can still drink wine to congratulate you on the New Year."

"What are you waiting for? Come quickly, come quickly!"

"Where is the wine? Come and give it to Liulang!"

...

Chattered and excited, but Zhang Changzong was so impressed that this is home and this is the banquet that should be held during the Chinese New Year. After so many years, everyone is still there. It’s great!
Chapter completed!
