"My wife?" Tangning sat up from the grass and said, "Don't be so naughty."

"What?" Su Mei stood up, walked to him, looked into his eyes, and asked, "Do you think I'm not worthy of you?"

"Is there any man in the world who is not worthy of the most beautiful woman in the capital?" Tangning took a step back and said, "But don't forget, we are siblings..."

"Did it."

Su Mei turned around and walked out of the yard, turning back and saying: "Since you invited me so kindly, I will reluctantly go..."

In fact, many women are so face-conscious. When they want something or do something, they always have to shirk it, invite it again, shirk it again. After such shirk two or three times, they reluctantly say I promise you, I will give it to you. Tang Yaoying has always been like this when it comes to face.

After leaving Tiantianju, Tangning walked on the street and saw a line of carriages and horses approaching from a distance. The pattern on the carriage looked familiar. The next moment, he remembered where the pattern came from.

This is the convoy of the Chu envoy.

He stopped the convoy almost subconsciously. In the convoy, a guard immediately drew out his weapon vigilantly and shouted: "Who is in front of you and why are you blocking the way?"

"I am the editor of the Hanlin Academy." Tang Ning glanced at a Chu official on horseback and said, "Are you envoys of Chu?"

Hearing that the person blocking the road was an official from the State of Chen, the man's complexion immediately improved a lot and he said, "Why is this gentleman blocking the road?"

Tang Ning looked at the person on the horse and said, "If it is not a military emergency, you need to dismount when entering the city. Even though you are envoys, you should abide by the rules of the Chen Kingdom."

Hearing this, the envoy on horseback immediately stood up and said with cupped hands: "Thank you sir for reminding me. It's my first time in Beijing and I don't understand the rules. I'm really sorry. I'm sorry."

"It's okay, just be careful next time." Tang Ning waved her hand casually and asked, "I have some friendship with Mr. Li from Chu State. I wonder if he is here on this mission?"

The official thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "There is no colleague named Li on this mission."

Even though I knew that with Li Tianlan's status, he would not go on two consecutive missions, I still felt a little melancholy when I heard the Chu State envoy personally confirmed it.

After saying goodbye to the Chu envoy, he returned home directly.

He didn't plan to be busy with anything else a year ago. The books in the bookstore have been unable to be sold in the past two days, but the wine sales are very good.

The wine they brewed has entered the capital market and occupied a huge market share. The supply has always been in short supply.

During this period, King Kang sent several invitations to invite him to banquets. Tang Ning went once but declined them all.

It’s not unusual for King Kang to hold banquets every day. Today’s King Kang is undoubtedly at the peak of his life. King Duan has already cooled down half the time after passing the Hubu. King Huai has never had any sense of existence, and His Majesty doesn’t know what he means. He was rewarded twice unintentionally. Many people in the court, including King Kang himself, believed that half of King Kang's feet had already entered the East Palace.

Countless people in the court began to show favor to King Kang, and those who had previously been on the fence gradually began to fall in love with him. The family in the capital that was originally tied to King Kang straightened their backs, and even got a little carried away. The result was half Within a month, Ping'an County Government dealt with three fights involving the children of powerful people in Beijing.

Fortunately, my father-in-law has the token granted by the emperor, so he is not afraid of the pressure from those families. However, because the New Year is approaching, the flow of people in the capital has increased sharply, and the daily pressure to maintain law and order is not small.

However, no matter how busy he was, he still came over early on New Year's Eve.

The family was extremely lively today, not to mention the family, including the father-in-law and mother-in-law, three uncles and three aunts, as well as Tang Yaojing and Tang Caishen who usually spend New Year's Eve together every year. This year, there will be one more Su Mei who reluctantly comes over.

Of course, there are also old beggars who can eat and drink for free just because they are little masters.

Tonight, all the maids in the house were given leave by Tang Ning. They could go out and wander around by themselves. The inner house was full of family members.

Xiao Yi and the others were busy preparing dinner for the night. Tang Ning and Qing'er were sitting in the pavilion making dumplings. Xiao Tao, who came with Su Mei, originally wanted to participate, but Tang Ning drove her away without hesitation.

She played with snakes all day long, and Tang Ning couldn't swallow the dumplings she made with peace of mind.

Xiao Tao was indignant about this and stood behind them with her hands on her hips. After a while, Su Mei washed her hands and walked over and said, "I'll help you pack it too."

Watching her make a dumpling, Tang Ning took the stuffing bowl in front of her and said, "Why don't you just stand aside and watch."

Su Mei looked at Xiao Tao and asked, "Xiao Tao, does my bag look ugly?"

Xiao Tao remained silent, lowering her head to play with her Xiao Qing.

After suffering a series of blows, Su Mei was unwilling to give up and went to Tang Ning's bookstore to sleep. Today was the only day she could sleep here.

She slept until Tang Ning woke her up during the New Year's Eve dinner.

Living in two lifetimes, this was probably the most lively New Year's Eve dinner that Tang Ning had ever had. I wonder if next year will be even more lively than this year.

During the meal, Su Mei took the initiative to ask Tang Yaoyao for a drink. Although Tang Yaoyao's drinking capacity was not as good as Su Mei's, she gave Su Mei the strongest wine she could brew. The alcohol she drank was much lower, and the result was... It was the two of them who were both drunk and unconscious...

Tang Ning held her little hand and stood in the courtyard. When fireworks lit up in the direction of the palace, time had officially entered the early year of Ding Yuan from the 24th year of Chen Guoxing Yuan.

As early as a few months ago, Emperor Chen discussed with the ministers and decided to change the reign name.

This is the first time that the reign name has been revised since Emperor Chen ascended the throne. The monarchs and ministers generally believe that the national power of Chen State has reached a higher level. Now that the grassland situation has been determined, Chen State is also full of vitality and prosperity. At this time, the reign name is revised. , which means that today’s Chen State has officially entered a new era.

Tang Ning got up early the next day to attend the court meeting held on the first day of every year.

In the first year of the Yuan Dynasty, the court meeting was particularly important. All Beijing officials of sixth rank and above were required to participate. Although Tang Ning did not have to go to court on weekdays, she could not miss it today.

There are so many officials in the Chen Kingdom. During the court meeting, officials from all over the country will rush to the capital. With so many people, there is no one in the palace who can stand down. Those below the sixth grade can basically stand outside to blow the cold wind. ?

Fortunately, in an aristocratic place like the Hanlin Academy, although the official position is not very high and does not have much real power, the status is not low. Tang Ning compiled from the sixth-rank Hanlin Academy and could stand in front of the fifth-rank officials when he went to court.

There were many people attending the meeting and it took a long time. After two hours, it was still not over. Tangning clearly noticed that several officials around him had turned pale.

And in this case, even if the two legs on which one is standing cannot feel, he still has to persist until the end of the court meeting. If the censor sees him moving randomly, he will lose his hard-earned official title.

"The envoy from the Kingdom of Xuanchu is here to see you!"

After being tortured by the Tang Fairy for a long time, standing for two hours was nothing to him, but he was a little sleepy. He could vaguely hear the Chu envoy entering the hall and saying something loudly.

"Princess Pingyang is of Shushen nature, gentle and graceful, and graceful and courteous. We, by the order of the Emperor, on behalf of His Highness the Crown Prince, seek to marry Princess Pingyang... I hope that the two countries will always be friends of Qin and Jin."

Tangning's eyes suddenly opened at a certain moment. She didn't quite believe her ears and looked at the Chu envoy in the middle of the hall.

The Chu State envoy came to Beijing this time to propose marriage...

Tangning didn't react until the court meeting ended and the officials began to leave.

He swore that he really just said it casually, and he definitely didn't mean to poison the milk. Now it's better. Zhao Yingying did not marry to the grassland, but for her, there seems to be no difference between marrying far away from the grassland and marrying far away from Chu. Not big.

He was thinking about this in his mind. When he was passing by a certain palace, someone suddenly grabbed his wrist and pulled him to a corner.

Zhao Man looked at him with a smile, turned the corner of her skirt in a circle, and asked proudly: "Do you think my new clothes look good?"
