But there are not so many ifs in life.

The country must be guarded and the daughter must be taken care of, so Chu Chen cannot stay at the top of the Nine Pavilions.

"I took a step back on Xiang Nan's matter, and now it should be your turn to take a step back."

Nan Mohao probably thought this sentence was very naive, and he heard this and said lightly: "You can send someone to catch Xiang Nan back. I don't need you to take this step."

Chu Chen choked: "..."

OK, he admitted he was a little rogue.

Xiang Nan's incident was a tacit result of their tacit understanding. It is impossible to say whoever retreats. Even if he retreats, it is just superficial.

For this, it is obviously a bit untenable.

Chu Chen thought about it, struggled for a while, but finally chose to compromise: "You can let you go, but I have a condition."

Chu Chen knew what Nan Mohao was thinking and was willing to put his heart in mind to understand his concern for Zixi, so although he was unwilling to take this step, he could accept it.

Anyway, I just went to see Zixi...

The familiar dull pain came from my heart. Chu Chen suppressed his depression and said lightly: "I haven't thought about the conditions yet. I owe it first. I'll talk about it later."

Nan Mohao didn't say anything, his eyebrows and eyes were as silent and cold as ever, just like the climate in the twelfth lunar month, without any temperature.

It's very cold in the twelfth month.

The palace was even colder, as if there was no trace of popularity.

Because the Queen is gone, the Regent and the Emperor are not very enthusiastic about festivals. On the 15th day of the 12th lunar month, when the Ministry of Rites asked for details of the New Year's Eve banquet in advance, the two of them ordered the cancellation of this year's New Year's Eve dinner and ordered the ministers to stay at home for the New Year's Eve dinner.

This decision naturally caused an uproar in the court, but most ministers only had speculations in their hearts and did not have much opinion on the surface.

The holiday was on the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month before the New Year, and they didn’t go to court until the sixth day of the New Year. There were more holidays than in previous years. This decision surprised the civil and military officials of the court again.

The Regent ordered that if there was an emergency, he could pass a memorial to the palace, but the ministers couldn't help but wonder, what was the reason for so many days off?

No one knew that the Regent left the imperial city overnight that night.

Chu Chen has lived for more than 20 years and has experienced the feeling of lonely and lonely during the New Year Festival for the first time.

In the huge palace, only his six-month-old daughter was his concern. Looking up, the three thousand palaces were immersed in the cold and lonely, as if waiting for his master to return alone.

Chu Chen sat in Yonghua Palace, holding his daughter in his arms, and sighed melancholy: "I really hope you can grow up quickly."

It is said that children urge people to grow old.

As the child grows up, time passes.

If his daughter is nine years old now, will his Zixi be awake?

Qiu Yan stood aside, silent for a moment, as if she could feel the sadness in Chu Chen's heart, and said, "The Emperor can actually go with the Regent."

Chu Chen shook his head: "I'm not afraid of ten thousand, I'm afraid of anything."

Qiu Yan was silent when she heard this. After a moment, she looked at the princess in Chu Chen's arms and smiled a little more: "Your Highness the Princess is very quiet, unlike other children who can cry."

As expected, he is worthy of being the destined empress, and he is born with this kind of demeanor.

Chu Chen looked at his daughter's little face carefully and frowned slightly: "Have she laughed?"

A six-month-old child should be able to make him laugh.

Qiu Yan was slightly stunned, then shook her head: "The princess doesn't cry too much, and she has never laughed much."
