1972 Chapter 1972-bustling

Thank you readers!

The Gu family’s flower Hall had been turned into a Chess House. This was specially prepared by the Zhang family for this New Year, and it was also Cai Xiaolian’s advice. Now, wasn’t it in use?

The Empress Dowager, grandma Gu, grandma Xiao, and old Madam Huo were all at the same table.

Empress Xue, Cai Xiaolian, Princess Kang, and third Madam Huo were at the same table.

Madam Xue, Madam yang, eldest Madam Peng, and Prime Minister Huo’s wife sat at a table.

Only Madam Zhang was left, but she didn’t mind at all. She chatted for a while at this table and then at that table. She even went to the front of the Empress Dowager to watch, afraid that the old lady would see the wrong cards.

In the end, the Grand Empress Dowager’s eyes were very good, her ears were sharp, she could see the cards, and also heard what the old ladies were saying.

Zhang Shi would also have the servant girls pay attention to the tea and snacks and would serve them at any time.

As for Gu Xin and her sisters, they naturally stayed at the nursery to play with the children and chat with them.

Lu Zheng, Xue Qianyu, and the others were caught to chat with Grandpa Gu, old master Huo, and old master Peng.

In general, today’s Gu residence was like a wedding. It was very lively, even though it was so late.

“Old Lu, drink, drink, drink. It’s your turn!” Uncle Gu and the others were very enthusiastic in persuading him to drink.

Although they had lost Gu shouxin, who could stay sober even after a thousand cups, they had joined the Emperor!

Even if the emperor’s alcohol tolerance wasn’t good, they were sure that the country guarding Duke wouldn’t dare to drink the Emperor down. Yes, he wouldn’t dare to, unless he didn’t want his head.

The country guarding Duke looked at the four people in front of him and resigned himself to his fate. If he wanted to drink, then so be it. It was as if he had never drunk before.

He picked up the glass and downed it in one gulp.

“Good!” The Emperor took the lead and clapped.

Uncle Gu and the other two followed suit and clapped.

The country guarding Duke put down his wine cup, cupped his hands, and said,”Tonight’s scene reminds me of the victory I won in the Army many years ago. Emperor, this Minister has something to say, but I don’t know if I should say it or not!”

The Emperor waved his hand. since you’re not sure if you should or can say it, then don’t. Come, come, come, let’s continue!”

The country guarding Duke,”Huanhuan.”

Uncle Gu, King Kang, and Duke Cheng ‘en nodded their heads repeatedly.”Yes, yes, yes.”

Uncle Gu very attentively poured the country guarding Duke a full cup of wine.

“What?” The Emperor and the other three looked at the country guarding Duke in surprise.

“The Emperor just said that there are no sovereign and ministers at this table, only brothers.” Duke Zhengguo spread his hands. The Emperor has opened his mouth, do you want to take it back?”

The Emperor was furious. He slammed his hand on the table and said, ” “Let’s play, who’s afraid of who! I’ll do it, you three drink!”

Uncle Gu and the other two replied,”yes, yes, yes.”

Then, the Emperor played rock-paper-scissors with someone for the first time and lost miserably. The country guarding Duke was not afraid of death at all and would not let anyone win.

Uncle Gu’s stomach was a little bloated from drinking, and he said to the defender Duke gloomily, ” “Old Lu, aren’t you afraid that the Emperor will take revenge on you? I’ll make life difficult for you in the court.”

Duke Zhengguo pursed his lips and smiled. Marquis Gu, I plan to hand in the memorial when I go to court after the new year. My son has grown up and is capable enough to support this family. I also want to be like Duke of Cheng ‘en and Prince Kang. I want to go on a scenic tour! Marquis Gu, is fourth young master Gu still preparing for the imperial examination? You’re envious of me, right?”

“Yueyue, don’t you feel bad for Yuan?” uncle Gu asked.
