1941 The lively main hall

Especially those old men who often talked to him, they didn’t object now.

The Emperor was overjoyed and continued,”I was thinking that this year, we should play mahjong and cards in Taihe Palace.” I’ll play with all my beloved ministers, the Empress will play with all the madams, and my princesses and princes will play with the princes and princesses of the West and the young masters and Noble ladies of various families. Let’s play until midnight, then set off the firecrackers, watch the fireworks, and go back to our homes to watch the new year, how about it?”

The Imperial censors that the Emperor had just seen found that their wives, sons, and daughters were holding them back and not letting them speak.

Well, the Emperor was very satisfied with the families of these imperial censors.

The eunuchs then carried the square tables to the center of Taihe Palace. The same number of tables were placed on the left and right sides.

Some of the tables had mahjong tiles, while others had cards.

The princes and princesses of the West had heard of it before, but they had never played it themselves, so they were quite curious.

The ninth Prince and Shanan, who were well-liked in the Royal Academy, came to the male-female line. Even if they were seated at different tables, they had to be the closest.

Then, the Emperor asked Gu shouxin to divide the teams for everyone, and the Empress’s team was naturally divided by Cai Xiaolian. Even the younger generation in the family was arranged for Gu en. Gu en had a good memory. He followed the West and came back all the way, so he knew the princesses and princes of the West very well. After that, they came to the capital first, so they recognized all the young masters and Noble ladies who could sit here.

The couple really wanted to scold her. They were only here for a meal and to chat with the old lady. Was there a need to? It was the new year, and he was still ordered to work.

“Next year, your husband will definitely let you two take advantage of us!” Gu shouxin whispered in Cai Xiaolian’s ear.

As for Gu en, he did not think much about it. He would just make the arrangements. The young masters of so-and-so families did not get along with each other and could not sit at the same table. The young ladies of so-and-so families often did not get along because of the jewelry competition in the jewelry shop.

Soon, the sound of Mahjong playing could be heard from Taihe Palace.

Other than Grandpa, grandma, and Gu Ren, everyone else in the Gu family was seated at the table.

The Emperor was very well-prepared, even the chips were ready. Big gambling is harmful to the body, small gambling is pleasant. On such a good day, we should be happy, so he prepared a chip of one tael of silver.

For those who were sitting, it was still okay. Some of the madams in their families had already been taught to play mahjong by third aunt Gu. They knew that once they learned it, as long as they were smart and their luck was not so bad, they would not lose much.

On the other side, Grandpa Gu and grandma Gu were holding Gu Ren’s hand as they sat in front of the Empress Dowager. The little crown Prince was sprawled at the Empress Dowager’s feet, nodding his head and dozing off.

She was now like the Emperor, especially fond of reading Gu Ren’s storybooks.

Recently, Gu Ren had written a story about a great master investigating a case in the blue sky. Two volumes had already been published, and the Empress Dowager was asking about the third volume.

Everyone had their doubts about how a six-year-old like Gu Ren could write such a profound case.

However, knowing that Lu Zheng and Gu en were helping, their doubts were gone.

From their point of view, the Gu family was trying to build up this kid’s reputation. Gu en was obviously a candidate for the imperial examination, and Lu Zheng was obviously interested in his sister.
