The Fourth Master did not answer immediately.

He just sat on the Taishi chair, his fingertips casually twirling Buddhist beads.

In the deep and dark ink pupils, there is an unpredictable black shadow, which is unfathomable.

After a while, the man opened his thin lips: "Last time you gave birth to the fourth princess, there were many accidents in the palace, so your parents didn't have time to come to the palace to see you. This time, I will give you three days, and in three days, you will return to the palace on time."

"Okay, thank you, the emperor." The imperial concubine's frowning face finally showed a smile.

And, she stood up happily and saluted.

At this time, the Fourth Master also stood up, lowered his head and glanced at the imperial concubine indifferently.

"You have a rest. I have something to do. Let's go back to the Yangxin Palace first." After that, he left Yikun Palace without looking back.

The imperial concubine watched the dragon chariot disappear at the end of Yikun Palace.

The vast guard of honor was clearly gone, but her eyes were still at the end, standing there in a daze.

Ziqing had been used to it for a long time, and she said softly: "Empress, it's late at night, you'd better take a break early. Otherwise, after returning to the New Year's mansion, if the wife and the general look in a bad mood, they will feel so sorry for you."

Before the master got married, the wife loved her.

The same is true for General Nian. Every time he comes back as a job, he brings all kinds of fresh things to his master.

Now that I enter the palace, it is difficult for the family to reunite.

"Okay." As soon as the imperial concubine thought of returning to her parents' home, she became gentle and obedient.

The next day, the imperial concubine who had not had a good sleep for a long time had a rare good night's sleep and slept until midnight before waking up.

After she finished her meal, dressed up and everything was ready, she was escorted out of the palace by the Great Inner Guard.

When the carriage stopped in the New Year's Palace, it was almost dusk.

When the imperial concubine returned to her parents' home, she naturally said hello early.

Therefore, when the imperial concubine got off the carriage, the Nian family greeted her at the door.

"Welcome to the Imperial Concubine."

There was a lot of kneeling down at the gate of the Nian Mansion.

The imperial concubine helped Ziqing's men get off the carriage.

However, I haven't come back for a few years, and Nian Mansion has changed a lot.

At first glance, it turns out that the ancient Nian Mansion is more than 50% wider in area just in terms of area.

And it is not only spacious, but also gorgeous.

Carved beams and painted roads are everywhere, and they are magnificent.

The black tiles in the past also became golden glazed tiles with double eaves on the roof of the hall, which looked particularly brilliant.

The four corners are still raised high, like four swallows spreading their wings and about to fly.

The vermilion pillars outside the yard are engraved with various golden animals and cloud patterns, which are particularly spectacular.

Seeing this scene, the imperial concubine was stunned for a few seconds.

If she hadn't looked at her relatives kneeling in front of her, she wouldn't believe that this was the New Year's Mansion back then.

She looked up at the plaque with gold edges engraved with eye-catching golden words: Nian Mansion.

Everything looks so magnificent.

If this is placed in the Forbidden City, it would be very suitable.

But this is the capital, but it seems a little out of place.

The imperial concubine withdrew her eyes and turned her eyes on the family members.

From grandmothers to fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters in the side branches, and children.

Almost all the young and old were present.

But I didn't see Nian Gengyao.

Seeing this, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

As the imperial concubine, her brother should come to pick her up.

Moreover, in front of her, my brother had to call himself a slave.

Actually, it’s not that I have to ask my brother to pick her up.

She was more worried than anything else.

The imperial concubine shook her head helplessly, thinking that her brother had some injuries on her arm, or maybe he was too busy and was not at home, she comforted herself like this.

Then he said gently: "It's all my family, please get up quickly."

As soon as the voice fell, the people at the door stood up in unison.

After Mrs. Nian stood up, she looked at the imperial concubine, her eyes were filled with tears and full of heartache.

She held the handkerchief in one hand and walked forward with the imperial concubine's hand in the other, "How long have you been tossing yourself like this?"

"What did my mother say? I'm fine." The imperial concubine took off her halo and leaned on Mrs. Nian to act coquettishly.

Mrs. Nian looked her up and down and said caringly: "It's cold outside, hurry up and talk. My mother asked the chef to cook a table of good dishes. Our family will have a neat reunion dinner later."

"Okay." The imperial concubine followed Mrs. Nian into the mansion, and then asked casually: "Where are you busy outside?"

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Nian paused slightly.

She smiled embarrassedly and said, "Your brother is really busy, but he is not busy outside, he is busy in the mansion. My mother doesn't know what he is busy with. Anyway, there are slaves coming in and out all day long, so she didn't go to disturb him. But don't worry, he knows that you are back and will have dinner together later."

"Oh." The imperial concubine replied faintly.

Since it was dusk, it was not long before dinner time was coming.

After the group chatted with the imperial concubine for a while, the relatives from the side branches all dispersed.

Those who stayed were all relatives of the legitimate branch.

The servants in the kitchen began to put meals on the table of mahogany white jade-embedded Eight Immortals.

When the meals were almost distributed, a singing came from outside: "General Nian is here!"

As soon as the voice finished, the servants in the room, Nian Gengyao's three wives and four concubines, as well as children, went out to greet them quickly.

The imperial concubine, Mrs. Nian, and the Nian were waiting at the table.

Soon, Nian Gengyao came in wearing a blue official uniform and striding in.

His steps are domineering, just like his whole body, giving people a feeling of being rough and domineering.

A pair of eyes were bright and shining with the light of ambition.

When he saw the imperial concubine, his eyes were slightly stunned.

Then he walked to the imperial concubine and saluted: "My servant Nian Gengyao has seen the imperial concubine."

Although he did not come to the door in person to greet him.

But when the brother and sister meet, he still has to do the gift he should give to the girl, otherwise he will not give face.

"Brother, please get up." The imperial concubine stood up and helped him up in person.

Then, the two siblings sat next to each other in the main seat of the Eight Immortals Table.

Nowadays, no matter whether it is a martial arts family or a literary family, you will pay special attention to rules when eating in the big portal.

In addition to the fact that Mrs. Nian picked up food for the imperial concubine from time to time and said a few words when adding soup.

Other times, no one spoke at the dinner table, whether it was adults or children.

Even if the imperial concubine had a lot of words to say to Nian Gengyao, she would swallow them all.

I want to wait until I finish the meal and talk to my brother.

During the meal, others were quite polite.

Only when Nian Gengyao was having a meal, he was always a servant who tried the poison and put it into his bowl.

The meals he used were different from others and were separate.

If the Eight Immortals Table wasn't particularly wide, I'm afraid it wouldn't be enough for him to do anything.
