Zixi didn't say anything anymore and quietly looked at Shili Dengjie.

A night breeze blew by, and Chu Chen closed the cloak for her: "Is it cold?"

Zixi shook her head: "It's okay. It's only once a year, and it's a rare opportunity. I want to watch it for a while."

Chu Chen pursed his lips and swallowed back to the persuasion to his mouth, and only said softly: "Okay, then let's look at it for a while."

As he said that, his arms tightened and he wrapped her firmly in his arms.

Qiuyan walked up the stone steps, holding a tray in her hand: "Your Majesty, the wind is cool at night, drink some soup to warm up your body."

Chu Chen reached out and took a cup of soup from the tray, opened the lid, and a strong fragrance came to his nose: "Fish soup."

Chu Chen fed Zixi with a spoon. Zixi took a few sips and stopped: "Forget it, go back to the bedroom."

"What's wrong?" Chu Chen looked at her, "It's not to fit his appetite?"

Zixi shook her head. She just felt that it was unnecessary to watch a lantern.

She is the emperor, not a princess who is ignorant of the world.

Even a princess can't be so spoiled.

Putting the fish soup back on the tray, Chu Chen carefully helped her down the city tower, "I really won't look at it?"

"I really won't watch it." Zixi smiled faintly, "The lanterns come every year, and the scenery is similar. If you don't watch it this year, there will be next year. There is no need to be like a little girl who has never seen the world."

Only the princess who were locked in the deep palace and had not left the palace for a long time, as well as the daughters who were rigorous in the family tradition and did not often leave the inner house, would feel that the scenery outside was rare.

Zixi often leaves the palace, and is actually not unfamiliar with the scenery outside, and is not much new. If it were usual, she would not be so enthusiastic about the Lantern Festival. This year it was just...

The corners of his lips raised slightly, suppressing the swelling emotions in his heart, and Zixi sighed silently.

Returning to the bedroom is to take a shower, wash, then change into bed and go to bed to rest. There is nothing else to do.

The first month passed in a blink of an eye, and February was ushered in a blink of an eye.

The Ministry of Revenue handed over a memorial, saying that the head of the Murong family in Luocheng came to Beijing to meet.

Seeing this note, Chu Chen was the first to tell Zixi the news and said, "Isn't this the one you dealt with in Luocheng before?"

"Well, it's him." Zixi nodded, his tone was faint, "Transfer my will and announce that the head of the Murong family will enter the palace in three days."

"Murong Lin suddenly came to Beijing..." Chu Chen frowned and looked at Zi Xi in confusion, "What's the matter?"

"I forgot to tell you." Zixi said calmly, "I promise that as long as the Murong family surrenders to the court, all the imperial items needed in the palace will be purchased from the Murong family. The salt and iron business in the territory of Ling Kingdom will also be controlled by the Murong family. This time he came to discuss business with the court."

Chu Chen was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Well, I'll make arrangements now."

"By the way." He mentioned another matter, "The Pei clan and the Wenren clan have been temporarily locked in the heavenly prison for some time. Are you not planning to deal with it for the time being?"

Zixi smiled faintly: "It is not easy to kill a child when you are pregnant. There are so many people... Let's keep it closed first, it's nothing wrong to be locked until you die of old age."

The royal family's Heavenly Prison is so strict that it is easy to get in and difficult to get out. If it can be kept in for a lifetime, there is nothing wrong with it, and it will prevent blood from flowing into a river.

The people who were once prominent and wealthy were once imprisoned, and this feeling was even more uncomfortable than death.
