After crossing, I was miserable.

Chapter 266 Happy New Year

Under the emperor's unclear and ambiguous attitude, but judging from his actions, many people in the court who were good at changing their attitude according to the situation began to have evil intentions towards Chu Yan and tested him again and again.

Of course, there are naturally other princes' parties here. They all have their own ulterior motives and want to see whether Chu Yan really has that idea.

These people observed Chu Yan's every move, either openly or secretly, trying to find some clues from his words and deeds.

Some people thought Chu Yan was just bluffing to attract the emperor's attention;

Others think that Chu Yan might really have some agenda, after all, the temptation of power is too great.

In this palace full of intrigues and struggles, everyone is calculating their own interests, and no one knows what will happen next.

If Chu Yan really has that idea, then they will face a new challenge - an additional powerful and formidable enemy.

This enemy may bring them endless troubles and dangers, putting them in a passive situation.

After all, Chu Yan's strength should not be underestimated. If he becomes the enemy, the degree of threat he poses can be imagined.

Therefore, they must be highly vigilant and always be prepared to deal with possible crises.

At the same time, we should also think about how to establish a good relationship with Chu Yan and avoid pushing him to the opposite side.

This requires wisdom, strategy, and the ability to adapt flexibly, but only in this way can you ensure your own safety and safeguard the interests of the team.

Otherwise, if we become enemies with Chu Yan, the consequences will be disastrous...

If not, they will never give up and will definitely try every means to win him over.

After all, one more friend means one more way, and one more help means a greater chance of success.

They will try their best to get close to him, understand his preferences and needs, and then cater to his preferences and give him things he likes.

Help him solve the problems he encounters and let him feel your sincerity and kindness.

At the same time, they will also show him their strengths and resources, letting him know that joining them will give him more opportunities and room for development.

They may even make some tempting promises.

In short, they will spare no effort to win his support and help and make him their right-hand man.

In fact, they would rather believe that Chu Yan himself does not have that idea.

After all, in the eyes of outsiders, he is neither favored nor has strong support from his maternal family, and his own mother is still in the cold palace.

It's just that the emperor has an unclear attitude.

Anyone with a bit of common sense would become their ally.

In fact, every prince looked down on him to some extent.

However, after all, he had been working in the army for many years and had been recognized by everyone in the army with his own strength.

He also has a close relationship with General Lu. If he can get General Lu's support, it will be an immeasurable and powerful help.

This will not only make him easy to succeed the throne, but will also likely change the course of the entire situation.

You know, General Lu is a famous and powerful figure, and his words are enough to affect the fate of countless people.

If you can get the favor and support of such a great man, it will undoubtedly add an indestructible insurance to your future.

But everyone was afraid that he would use this relationship to seek benefits for himself.

After all, human hearts are hard to predict, and no one knows what his true thoughts and intentions are.

Therefore, people's attitude towards him gradually became cautious, and there were really few people who were truly friends with him.

Of course, Chu Yan himself didn't care much.

He knew that everyone was on guard against him, always watching his every move, fearing that he would do something harmful to everyone;

Others choose to keep a certain distance from him and avoid too much contact with him, so as not to be involved in unnecessary trouble;

Some people even started talking behind his back and speculating about his behavior.

In short, because of the concern that he might use that relationship for personal gain, people's attitude towards him changed significantly.

This change not only reflects people's sensitivity and vigilance towards interest relations, but also reveals the complexity and subtlety of interpersonal communication.

But no matter how everyone treated him, he was always calm and indifferent, never interacting with anyone, just attending court on time and fulfilling the emperor's requirements.

At present, his talent and learning are mediocre.

But no matter how they tried, no one could talk to him.

Chu Yan has been used to being alone these years.

Apart from Lu Shaoxuan and Bai Ningchuan, there is almost nothing else to say.

But he never went to your house to avoid suspicion.

Over time, everyone knew that

He really didn't have that intention. Even if he couldn't be their friend, he couldn't be their enemy either. They would feel more at ease if everyone was treated the same.

After the dinner, Chu Yan felt depressed in the palace, so he returned to his own courtyard, which was the one next to Qian Duoduo.

Ever since he became familiar with Qian Duoduo and the others, he almost always stayed in this courtyard and had never returned to his residence outside the palace.

But when he came back, there were only lanterns hanging next door, and no bustling noises.

An Ba saw his master's doubts and said quickly:

“My Lord, they all went to the villa to celebrate the New Year.

I heard that Miss Qian arranged a fireworks show there, which is more convenient than here.

There are only a few people next door left to look after the house.”

Chu Yan didn't say anything, but just looked at the next room quietly.

The old butler knew that his master must have not eaten anything at the dinner, so he prepared a portion at home every year.

Be ready for the master to come back at any time.

"Let's eat."

Although Chu Yan eats alone every year, he is unwilling to go to his "mother concubine" in the cold palace.

The reason is simple, there is no emotion.

Every year, I have to eat the lonely New Year’s Eve dinner alone.

The cold wind was howling outside the window, as if mocking his loneliness.

The lights in the room were dim, with only the bowls, chopsticks and dishes on the table to keep people company.

Looking at the sumptuous meal in front of him, Chu Yan had no appetite at all.

There is always an endless feeling of loneliness in his heart, as if he is the only one left in the world.

This repeats every year.

Just when he was still enjoying this "loneliness" normally this year, the fireworks in the city officially opened.

At the end of each year and the beginning of the next, the capital city would hold grand and spectacular fireworks displays and firecracker activities, which is a custom over the years.

These traditional customs not only add to the festive atmosphere, but also make people feel the strong flavor of the New Year and the joyful atmosphere.

The colorful and dazzling fireworks blooming in the night sky are as gorgeous as a dream;

The deafening sound of firecrackers that resounds through the sky conveys a sense of joy, peace, prosperity and prosperity.

Especially on the night of New Year's Eve, the whole capital seemed to be immersed in a boiling joy, and everyone's face was filled with smiles of happiness and satisfaction.

But he was not interested in any of that.

"Wow, that one is so beautiful."

"Yes, look, there are words on it. This is the first time I've seen fireworks made into words."

"Oh, really, what is the word?"

"Happy New Year!"

"Hahaha...hahaha..."

An Ba listened to the discussions outside and became curious, and couldn't help but want to go and take a look.

"Go and have a look."

Chu Yan also saw his thoughts.

Today is New Year's Eve, and these secret guards are freer than usual.

But the duty to protect the master cannot be compromised. Everyone takes turns to eat and then take turns on duty.

Because it was New Year's Eve, it wasn't as serious as usual.

"Hey, there are words again,"

"Safe and sound, happy and healthy."

"Wow, what beautiful fireworks!"

An Ba came out just in time for another set of blessings.

"Hey!" An Ba saw that the direction was the direction of Qian Duoduo Villa, and hurried into the house to report.

"Master, there are some very beautiful fireworks being set off in a certain direction a little outside, and they also have blessings with words on them.

This is the first time I’ve seen fireworks being able to write, it’s amazing.”

Chu Yan ate slowly without even raising his head.

"I looked in that direction, it should be the direction of Miss Qian's villa, I guess they were the ones who put it there.

I've heard before that Miss Qian seems to have researched a lot of beautiful fireworks, and she seems to want to open the villa for three days on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month."
