Chapter 1699 It’s Late at Night

"This requires a lot of money, let me pay for it." Yun Dai said, "I have saved a lot of money in the past few years."

Zhao Yuanjing smiled and said: "The queen has spent a lot of money on me in the past few years."

"It's not for you, it's for the people of Zhou Dynasty." Yun Dai leaned her face on his shoulder, "Zhao Yuanjing, I hope you can be a good emperor."

"I will work hard. But... it is difficult to protect both our family and our country. I have to be a good emperor, and sometimes I will inevitably wrong you. For example, this time, I know that you are in difficulty in Northern Qi, but I cannot personally lead the troops to help you."

"I know."

Zhao Yuanjing squeezed the soft flesh of her waist with his hands and whispered, "It's late at night."

"No more." Yun Dai buried her head on his chest, "I'm so tired."

"I haven't used contraception today."

"It doesn't matter, I can't get pregnant anyway." Yun Dai's voice was muffled, "Don't move around, sleep."

Zhao Yuanjing hugged her, closed his eyes, and slept peacefully.

In the next few days, Xiao Ziliang lived in the palace, and took Jiaojiao around the capital every day under the protection of the guards.

Had a great time.

This time he gained some knowledge and opened his eyes.

It's just a bit too happy to miss Shu.

After all, Northern Qi is not as rich and prosperous as here in Kyoto, with everything you need.

At the same time, the issue of submission between the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty was also in full swing.

It sounds like surrender, changing the Northern Qi royal family into a royal palace, and Xiao Ziliang becoming the Northern Qi king, but in terms of details, there are still too many things to discuss and implement.

After all, two countries are involved.

These are all the work of the ministers.

Sometimes the ministers would quarrel for a long time over a small issue.

The big week usually wins.

Who said Northern Qi was a surrendered country?

It's a bit lower in terms of momentum.

On New Year's Eve, it was a rare reunion year, so everyone got up early and got busy.

There is a banquet in the palace in the evening.

This was the third year that Zhao Yuanjing ascended the throne. He had taken off his filial piety, and in addition to the important matter of surrendering to the Northern Qi Dynasty, a banquet was bound to be held for all civil and military officials to attend.

Last year Yun Dai failed to celebrate the New Year with the children. This year she decided to make it up to the children. She got up and personally dressed them in new clothes, combed the hair of the two little princesses, and brought red velvet flowers.

After getting dressed, she had breakfast with her children, then walked to the 24th Bureau and watched them prepare for the palace banquet.

After a lot of work, it started to snow again.

Yesterday it was just light snow, which had been gloomy all morning. The snow gradually became heavier and soon turned into heavy snow, which was falling and turning white on the ground and roof in an instant.

Everyone felt happy.

The three children didn't dare to go out casually, so they stood at the door eagerly and watched.

Yun Dai came back from the secretary's office and saw them leaning side by side with their three little heads poking out the door. She waved and said with a smile: "Whatever you are hiding in the house, come out."

Yan'er ran out first.

Qian'er held hands with the toddler and followed behind her brother.

A large number of maids and eunuchs also came out and gathered around to wait on them, fearing that one of them would fall or bump into them.

Yun Dai said: "They are not porcelain. They will break after just two touches. Only by running more can they grow stronger. You all should do what you want and don't hang around."

Baoxing came over, asked them to disperse, and arranged other tasks for them.

I'm very busy having a banquet today.

Yun Dai only had to keep an eye on it, and there was no need for her to do anything herself. She just stayed in the yard of Fengyi Palace, playing in the snow with the three children.
