Author: Fan Duo

There was a brief explanation of the New Year's Eve Dinner.

But the two Empresses were fighting power. Neither of them was willing to stay in the back to host peeresses and let the other go with the Emperor to get greeted and respected by the officials.

After a while, he whispered, "Fortunately you are OK."Qiu Yelan noticed that his voice was a little hoarse, and she knew that he must have been very anxious and was shut out of the palace that night.

In the snow, the way they stood reminded people of all the fine and elegant trees described in the books.It was already dark. The lanterns that hanged in front of the door of the third branch looked vague in the snow and wind. Under the dim light, Jiang Yashuang who heard the noise turned around.
