Chapter 596: The Empires New Years Eve(2/2)
There was a hint of hesitation on Qiuniang's face.
Just when she was about to refuse.
Zhu Yunxi's eyes flashed, and he spoke first: "Then it's settled, we will wait for the second sister-in-law to go ahead. Later, we will write a letter and have someone rush it to the second brother. I want to come.
It will be sent out tomorrow, and it will be in the hands of my second brother in five or six days."
After offering the temptation of writing a letter to Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Yunwen cupped his hands and said goodbye in front of Qiuniang.
Qiuniang wanted to refuse, but looking at the retreating figures of Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Jiye, she could only sigh softly in the end.
The maid of Prince Jin's Palace, who had been serving her for a long time, had joy on her face.
"Mrs. Wen, His Highness has said that you can write to Mr. Wen. And I have also heard that there will be a lot of excitement in front of the palace tonight.
Firstly, it’s to celebrate the New Year, and secondly, because there are so many things happening in Taiyuan City this year, it’s a lively event to appease people’s hearts.”
Qiuniang bit her lip lightly.
Even though she was a village woman, she could still tell that these maids wanted to follow her to the front of the palace to watch the excitement tonight.
Qiuniang smiled: "Then we have to make the cakes as quickly as possible."
"Slaves, just go ahead and do it!"
In the small courtyard, cheers rang out.

Hiss, hiss...
From the top of a border fort far away from Taiyuan City, the sound of golden swords could be heard.
On the fort in the wind and snow, two people were huddled together under the wall, leaning against the wall behind them.
Both of them were wrapped up tightly, with almost only their eyes exposed.
Zhu Yunwen showed off his sword and held a whetstone in his other hand, constantly polishing his sword.
And that sound came from his sword.
The other person beside him was holding the scabbard and huddled tightly.
"General Qi, you said you have that kind of status, why do you want to get together with people like us, and still stay here during the Chinese New Year?"
The chief flag officer of the garrison here died a few days ago.
He died on the way to take people out of the customs in accordance with the regulations to inspect the movements outside the customs.
Therefore, Zhu Yunwen was assigned here to take over the post of general flag officer of the garrison, leading fifty border troops.
Listening to the doubts of the little flag officer next to me.
A smile appeared on Zhu Yunwen's face, but it was blocked by the mask.
He spoke in a hoarse voice: "What's the use of status? Good clothes and good food? But there are always people to guard this place. If I don't come, if you don't come, who will? Are we going to call those wolf thieves again?
Stealing our land and women from the Central Plains?"
"That's impossible! If a wolf bandit comes, I'll kill one! If two come, I'll kill a pair!"
The flag officer clenched the scabbard and banged it heavily on the ground.
Zhu Yunwen shook his head, returned the polished sword to the scabbard, and hung it on his waist. Then he stood up, pressing the handle of the sword with one hand and pressing the other hand on the city wall, looking towards the snowy north.
The little flag officer also stood up, but he still hugged the saber tightly, curled up his back and squinted his eyes.

The little flag officer's words were full of malice, and in the end he even spat a mouthful of phlegm outside the city wall.
Zhu Yunwen had long been accustomed to the vulgarity of these frontier soldiers, and he could even follow them and spit thick phlegm in the direction of the grassland.
The flag officer stamped his feet: "I heard that there is a new artillery over there in the capital. If one cannon is fired, not even the scum of the wolf bandits will be left. I don't know when they can be mounted on our fortress."
Zhu Yunwen said quietly: "We will not add artillery here, but if there is a chance, you will see our Ming Dynasty's artillery blasting the wolf cubs on the grassland until their buttocks urinate."
"real?"
The little flag officer's eyes were filled with anticipation.
Zhu Yunwen nodded.
At this time, a banging sound came from the fort beneath the two men.
"New Year's Eve dinner is ready! Chief, let's go down and eat!"
Zhu Yunwen responded calmly and walked down the garrison from the door opened by the flag officer.
When the two of them arrived at the fort, they immediately felt warm.
Going down to the lowest level of the fort, the space suddenly becomes clearer. There are several small holes in the wall on the north side, and you can get a glimpse of the movement in the north.
In the room, there were people standing around several large pots lined up, and their eyes began to glow green.
Sun Cheng, the envoy of Fusi Town in Jinyi Weibei Town who accompanied Zhu Yunwen to guard the border, was also holding a big bowl and chopsticks in his hand.
I saw Zhu Yunwen walking down.
Ben immediately raised the hand holding the chopsticks.
"Chief Flag Officer, our New Year's Eve dinner at the garrison is ready!"
