Chapter 297 Sauvignon Blanc 54
Half a month before the New Year, Ling Xi and Anian rushed back to Haoling and began to prepare for the New Year.

King Hao Ling had already known about the attack on Ling Xi in Chenyi City, so as soon as Ling Xi came back, King Hao Ling kept Ling Xi in Chaohui Palace.

Ling Xi was asked all sorts of questions by King Hao Ling, "Were you injured in the attack?"

Ling Xi shook his head: "I'm fine, father, don't worry. Besides, with my spiritual power, few people can hurt me."

King Hao Ling smiled and said, "It's good that you are here. Fortunately, you are here this time. Otherwise, with Xiao Yao's spiritual power, it would be very bad."

King Hao Ling knew that Ling Xi didn't mind him mentioning Xiao Yao, so he asked what was in his mind without any hesitation.

As expected, Ling Xi looked very calm and said, "It was just a coincidence. My sister and I were taking a walk together and we entered the formation set up by those people."

King Hao Ling asked Ling Xi: "I only know the general situation of what happened in the Central Plains. Who wants to kill Xiao Yao? And why?"

Ling Xi stared at King Hao Ling, then looked at his father for a while before looking away.

"They are several people from the Mu, Zhan, and Shen families. Their families were all destroyed by Chi Chen, so they took revenge on Xiao Yao."

Under the surprised gaze of King Hao Ling, Ling Xi's expression was not very good, "They recognized Xiao Yao, so they put the blame of Chi Chen on Xiao Yao."

When talking about Chi Chen, King Hao Ling and Ling Xi had the same solemn expressions.

He was a great and tragic figure.

To the Zhongyuan clan, he is a big devil who does all kinds of evil.

To the people of Chenrong at that time, he was an undeniable hero.

"Father, I told Xiaoyao to come to Haoling when he has time. Some things are better told to Xiaoyao in person by the people who experienced those things. What do you think?"

Ling Xi looked at King Hao Ling with clear eyes, as if he saw through everything.

King Hao Ling sighed, what is coming will come sooner or later.

"I see."

He had long anticipated this day, Xiaoyao would eventually know her life story.

After talking about Xiaoyao, King Haoling turned the topic to Ling Xi.

"Now that you're back, we have to prepare for the young master's enthronement ceremony. I've asked Rushou to prepare the formal dress. You can go and see if it fits you and if you're satisfied. You can also ask him to prepare a new one."

"After the New Year, I will have people send invitations to all the clans in the Great Wilderness, inviting them to attend the ceremony of enthroning the young master."

Ling Xi had no opinion on this matter. "I understand, Father."

"Since you are going to be crowned as Young Master, is there something you should consider?"

Ling Xi's eyes flashed with confusion, and he asked, "Father, is there anything else?"

She doesn't remember anything else?

"Do you want to think about your lifelong event? I heard that you have been very close to Fangfeng Bei, the second son of the Fangfeng family, in Chenyi City these few months? Have you two traveled together?"

King Haoling smiled elegantly and easy-goingly, but there was a rare kind of teasing towards his daughter in his eyes, even like a joke.

At this time, he was more concerned about his daughter's feelings.

King Hao Ling investigated Fang Feng Bei. To be honest, Fang Feng Bei was also a good choice. His family background was average, and he had no connections with other forces. He was clean.

More importantly, Fang Fengbei is a free and easy-going person who does not have that many responsibilities.

The throne is lonely, so King Hao Ling hopes that his daughter will have someone she truly loves by her side, so that at least someone will accompany her in that supreme position.

Facing the ambiguous look from her father, Ling Xi felt her ears suddenly get hot. She nodded, "I am indeed very close to Fang Fengbei."

King Hao Ling asked, "So do you like him?" Ling Xi did not answer King Hao Ling's question, but asked directly, "Who does my father want me to choose as my future husband?"

King Hao Ling's expression gradually became complicated: "From King Hao Ling's perspective, I think Chishui Fenglong is your best choice."

In King Hao Ling's opinion, if Ah Xi were to inherit Hao Ling in the future and aim his sword at Central Plains, then the clans in Central Plains would become a problem.

The clans in the Central Plains have been passed down for thousands of years, and their clan genealogies are vast, so any change in one part of their clan history can have an impact on the entire body.

But if the King of Haoling marries the next young master of the Chishui clan or the Chenrong clan, then things will be much simpler.

Ling Xi nodded slightly, agreeing with King Hao Ling's decision: "Father's choice is correct."

"But, as your father, I hope you can choose what you like."

King Hao Ling changed the subject and his face showed sadness. He knew too well what it was like for two people without any feelings to get along with each other.

Ling Xi lowered her eyes: "I understand what father means, I will consider it carefully."

The New Year is approaching, and Ling Xi still has a lot of things to do. He is busy every day and can't stop.

She was responsible for preparing a year's rewards for the four tribes of Hao Ling, and also had to go to the army to reward the soldiers. This was what she had to do at the end of every year.

She also needs to take care of some of the matters concerning Qi Jinzhao, her subordinate.

She had to deal with various affairs in the court every day. As soon as she came back, King Hao Ling threw all the things to her.

Before I knew it, half a month had passed and the New Year was here.

On the first day of the new year, sacrifices are offered to the ancestral temple during the day, and a banquet is held in the Chaohui Hall to accept congratulations from all officials.

It was not until the evening that Ling Xi and Anian were able to have a lively family reunion dinner with Prince Hao Ling, Concubine Jing An, Rushou and Tan Mang. This was a rare free time for them.

Ruoshou and Tanmang did not go back to the Qinglong tribe during the New Year, so they had the New Year's Eve dinner with Ling Xi and others.

After all, as members of the Qinglong tribe, they are related to King Hao Ling by blood, and are King Hao Ling's disciples. They are also a family with Ling Xi.

When Ling Xi came back a few years ago, he did not let Yiying and Xie Shuhui come back with him.

The two of them had not celebrated the New Year with their families for many years, so Ling Xi let them stay in Zhongyuan and come back after the New Year.

After dinner, Ling Xi played games with Anian, Ruoshou, and Qin Mang for several hours, until midnight.

When the old year was replaced by the new, Ling Xi took Anian with him, and Rushou and Tan Mang were beside him. They stood on the Five Gods Mountain and looked at the Haoling King's Capital.

Ling Xi arranged for people to set off fireworks.

Soldiers were setting off specially made fireworks in all four corners of the royal capital, which were colorful and varied.

The fireworks flew high into the sky and bloomed into beautiful flowers, making the entire sky seem like a colorful garden.

There were also countless people on the streets setting off the fireworks they had bought. Although they couldn't fly very high, they were unique and interesting. Children were chasing and playing with all kinds of fireworks, and laughter filled the air.

This is a kind of joyful atmosphere that can only be seen in a prosperous and peaceful era.

Ling Xi looked down at the bustling and prosperous capital of Haoling. Every time she felt that her efforts were useful.

She made the people of Haoling live a good life and made every person in Haoling smile brightly.

Looking at the fireworks silently, Ling Xi suddenly wondered what Xiangliu was doing at this time.

Are you working on Xiangliu or Fangfengbei?

Is it in the back mountain of Qingshui Town, sitting around a campfire with the soldiers, drinking, eating meat, singing, and thinking about Chen Rong?
