Who took away my wealth

The snow is getting heavier, and more and more white has accumulated on the ground. The emperor is considerate, and for today's palace banquet, the carriage can directly enter the palace gate and stop in front of the palace.

But precisely because of this, everyone squeezed their heads to get in and get a good position. Everyone thought so, and the palace door was blocked.

Gu Yujian didn't move the carriage for a moment, so he simply opened the curtain and walked out. Song Qinian noticed his movement and immediately ran over and gave him a hand.

A pair of eyes looked at him solemnly and eagerly.

"So good~"

Gu Yu smiled and put his hand on his, used it as a fulcrum, and jumped out of the carriage.

He casually rubbed the boy's head.

Song Qinian went from avoiding Gu Yu's "intimate" actions at the beginning to enjoying his touch in just a few months.

He likes to care and stroke his head.

I like to tell him "so good".

The young man looked at Gu Yu's Adam's apple that twitched slightly when he spoke, and swallowed calmly.

He looks cute, innocent and harmless, and no one can tell how completely different his heart is from his appearance.

The corners of Song Qinian's mouth raised slightly, and he turned to Gu Yu and held up an oil-paper umbrella. Snowflakes fell on the umbrella, making a rustling sound.

"Hey, Your Highness, why do you have to come down and walk? It's so cold outside!"

When the palace attendants who were interrogating saw that it was the prince, they hurriedly rushed to greet him.

"The palace gate is so blocked. I don't know when I can enter the palace. I'm afraid that my father will be impatient, so there's no harm in taking a few steps down."

When the palace people heard this, they quickly laughed and flattered: "His Royal Highness is still considerate."

After saying that, he looked at Gu Yu and the three guards following behind him, "Your Highness, you are not allowed to bring an entourage who is not worthy of a weapon into the palace today. Who do you think you are bringing?"

Everything was said so clearly, Gu Yu naturally knew that the palace man wanted him to lose two followers.

It's pretty good, but I'm not allowed to bring one to court on weekdays.

He looked back at the three people standing behind him.

Song Qinian stood aside obediently, with an expression that said whatever he said would be what he said.

Yinfeng was extremely well-behaved and looked calm.

Xu Hai's eyes were sparkling with "Your Highness chooses me" written all over it.

After thinking for a moment, Gu Yu tightened his cloak and raised his chin towards Song Qinian. His voice was moistened with snow: "Child, let's go."

Xu Hai's expectant expression instantly cracked.

When the two of them were far away, he pulled Yinfeng's clothes aggrievedly: "Does His Highness not love me anymore? I've made it so obvious that he didn't even choose me..."

Yinfeng pulled back the hem of his clothes in disgust:

"Don't you know His Highness well these past few months?"

Xu Hai: "Huh?"

Yinfeng rolled his eyes at him helplessly: "Xiao Song comes from outside the Great Wall. This is his first year in Nanling. If His Highness doesn't take him with him, he will be alone."

"Aren't we still there? How can it be so serious? Your Highness has spoiled him rotten."

Yinfeng glanced at him and said, "Do you think Xiao Song likes His Highness more or you more?"

Xu Hai was speechless and touched his slightly red nose, leaving no room for rebuttal.

Seeing his disappointed expression, Yinfeng couldn't bear to hit him any more. She could only pat him on the shoulder and said in a gentle voice: "It doesn't matter, you still have me."

The layout of the New Year's banquet in the palace is tainted with folk customs. Red lanterns can be seen everywhere, and the atmosphere of lanterns and colorful decorations immediately adds to the spirit of the New Year.

Gu Yu and Song Qinian entered the palace relatively early. There was no one else around at this moment, and only their footprints were left on the snow.

The only sound in my ears was the collapse of my feet on the soft snow.

Only when Song Qinian was following Gu Yu did he dare to raise his eyes and look at him unscrupulously.

Even though the other person's neck was covered by the cloak, he could still imagine the other person's fair, lotus root-like skin through the thick cloth.

His eyes were fiery and unflinching.

The people in front were not aware of the danger at all.

Suddenly, Gu Yu turned sideways and turned to look at Song Qinian. The young man had no time to retract his fiery gaze, so he could only lower his eyes to hide his "vigorous ambition".

In Gu Yu's eyes, this action meant he was depressed and unhappy.

"Child, are you homesick?"

Song Qinian nodded casually.

"What do you do during the Chinese New Year?"

Song Qinian struggled to suppress the emotions in his eyes, then raised his head, his eyes heavy:

"On the first day of the Lunar New Year, we toast to the elders according to their seniority. On the second and third day of the lunar month, there will be a horse racing competition, and the winner can get a prize. On the 15th day of the first lunar month, just like Nanling, we will eat glutinous rice balls and reunite with our families. On the 16th day of the lunar month, we will Sometimes there is a custom of smearing one’s face, but when smearing one’s elders, one has to bow one’s head first to show respect.”

Gu Yu smiled, revealing a slight dimple: "That's really much more interesting."

Unlike here, on the second and third day of the lunar month, the elders have to drag each family to pay New Year greetings.

"Then what prize will you get if you win the horse race?"

When mentioning this, Song Qinian's eyes narrowed: "It depends on the ranking. There will be a cow in the first place."

what?

Are rewards so simple and crude?

"A cow, have you finished eating?"

"We don't eat it alone, we share it with other people in the tribe so that everyone can celebrate."

Gu Yu looked at the young man smiling from the bottom of his heart and thought to himself, this kid still wants to go back, right?

Otherwise, if we find a good time, we can let him go.

Returning to the place that truly belongs to him, perhaps he will be more lively and happy.

Song Qinian naturally didn't know what Gu Yu was thinking, and his eyes were bright: "I got first place twice!"

"Wow, then you are awesome."

Song Qinian grinned happily, and the laughter echoed in the empty space and gradually dispersed.

He is a child after all, so happy to receive a compliment.

"How is the environment over there?"

Gu Yu said this without thinking.

"what?"

"If you have time, you can go and take a look."

He has not yet determined where he will settle down in the future, maybe Jiangnan or Saibei.

"Your Highness is going to our place?"

Song Qinian's eyes suddenly became unusually bright, and the emotions in his eyes were like buds trying to break through the soil.

Seeing his appearance, I thought of teasing him:

"Tell me what's good about your place. I'll go if I think it's good."

"We have cattle and sheep there, endless meat, and prices are much cheaper than in the capital! There are also all kinds of rare things for the capital. In the spring, the grass on the grassland is very green, and there are many flowers blooming. You can also ride horses, and you can..."

The young man seemed to want to tell all the good things, but all the words were entangled together, but he was blocked and couldn't say it out.

Gu Yu smiled and said:

"You act like you are trying to lure me to your side."
