"Happy New Year, everything goes well. May you have a son soon, and we will be together for a long time. My fourth brother and sister, your heart must be as beautiful as yours. You will definitely stay young forever, and you will have many descendants."

Si Beijun stared at Yu Yueli and whispered through his teeth, "But thank you for your compliment. Your heart must be as dark as your eyes." Naturally, Si Beijun didn't know that Li Luo had given

Yu Yueli is nothing like new year's money, but judging from Yu Yueli's attitude, it must be something good.

"Ah? What did you say?" Yu Yueli said that he didn't hear clearly what it was, so he raised his head and asked again. Si Beijun swallowed his breath and thought, he couldn't afford to offend this person, and smiled at Yu Yueli.

, said nothing.

The movement here also attracted the attention of the emperor and queen who were watching the singing and dancing. "Yueli, what are you talking about? What are you talking about that makes you so happy? Tell me what anecdotes you are talking about."

Several people immediately stood up and saluted the emperor, "Replying to the emperor, this is not an anecdote. My son, the emperor's brother and his sister-in-law were talking about New Year's money." Si Beiyan was the first to explain. "It was the third younger brother and sister who started talking.

Yes, a meaning for the New Year."

"Oh? New Year's money, this is a new thing. You girl always likes to do these weird things. What is it this time?" The emperor put down the wine glass and asked with a smile.

Yu Yueli immediately stepped forward and replied: "It's not a weird thing, it's..." Yu Yueli thought for a moment, thinking about how to say it, "I read it in a book when I was a child.

It is a custom in a certain place that before the New Year's Eve, after the New Year's Eve dinner, the elders in the family will distribute New Year's money to the younger ones in the family. The implication is to suppress evil spirits and ensure peace, and also hope that the children in the family will spend the rest of the year safely.

It means "year old". I thought it was interesting, so I talked about it with the eldest and fourth emperor brother in private."

"Oh? This is interesting. What's the explanation in it?" The emperor became curious. After all, apart from singing, dancing and chatting, there are no other activities at such a palace banquet. It is like this every year. There is nothing but eating.

Anything else that can be done.

"Speaking of it, there is indeed an allusion in it," Yu Yueli immediately started telling stories, "In ancient times, the local area was often harassed by vicious beasts, and among them there was a kind of little demon named

'Evil', it is said that it has black body and white hands, and it will come out every New Year's Eve to harm people's lives, especially children. As long as it touches the sleeping child's head gently with his hand, the child will be frightened and cry.

They will have a continuous high fever and talk gibberish in their dreams. After a few days, the disease will not be cured but they will recover on their own, but the originally smart and smart children will become stupid and stupid. People are afraid of evil spirits coming to harm their children. Later, an old couple...

Because they were expecting a child at an old age, they were particularly worried about it. On New Year's Eve, they were afraid that the evil spirits would harm the child, so they played with the child to prevent him from falling asleep. The laughing child wrapped eight pieces in red paper.

I unwrapped the copper coins, unwrapped them again, and played with them until I was so sleepy that I couldn't keep my eyes open before I went to sleep. The red paper wrapped with the copper coins was placed next to the pillow. But the old couple did not dare to close their eyes and guarded the child.

Afraid of being invaded by evil spirits. When midnight came, suddenly a gust of wind blew open the door and blew out the lights in the house. The old couple hurried to find candles and electric lights, but saw a short black man with a pair of white hands about to touch them.

At this time, a bright light burst out from the child's pillow. He was so frightened that he quickly retracted his hand and ran away with a scream. When the old couple saw this, they scared away the child who wrapped eight copper coins in red paper.

After telling everyone about the incident, local people also learned to wrap eight copper coins in red paper and give them to their children to put on their pillows after the New Year's Eve dinner. Sure enough, evil spirits would never dare to harm their children again. It is said that these eight coins

Copper coins were transformed by eight immortals to protect children secretly and scare away evil spirits. Therefore, this coin is called "evil money", and because "evil" and "year" are homophonic, it also refers to children and their children.

I spent one year safely, so I called it 'New Year's money'." Yu Yueli finished speaking in one breath, and everyone listened with interest as if they were listening to a story.

"Although it is a legend, and it is a bit weird, but it has a good meaning, eh." Before the emperor could speak, Prince Shen on the side nodded with a smile. He was originally a hero who went to the battlefield to kill the enemy. These ghosts, oh my god,

Of course I don’t believe it, but this story is quite interesting.

"Well, the intention is good. According to this, I have to give you juniors some lucky money." The emperor smiled cheerfully and said, it's a festival, it's all for fun anyway, and then he shouted: "Eunuch Su,

Go get ready."

"Yes," Eunuch Su Lusu responded immediately and stepped back to prepare the red envelope. Yu Yueli rubbed her hands secretly. The New Year's money given by the emperor, no matter what the amount, must be objective, it is really not in vain.

"You thought you and Yan'er were just asking for the new year's money. Why can you talk to Jun'er? After all, she is the sister-in-law of the Three Emperors and an elder." The emperor glanced at Si Beijun who was standing aside.

I feel like I need to say a few words of justice.

"I am young." Yu Yueli said confidently, "This evil spirit will not harm people according to their seniority." Besides, she has been haunted by a ghost recently, and it is your royal ghost, so she cannot give her any comfort.

ah.

Everyone was amused by Yu Yueli's righteousness, and several elders laughed without hesitation. However, in the entire palace banquet, except for a few little carrot heads and Qi Lian, Yu Yueli was indeed worthy of mentioning.

He is too young.

This New Year's Eve banquet finally had some joyful New Year atmosphere. It was not as lifeless as before and everyone was doing what they were supposed to do. The whole family should be talking and laughing happily like this. Eunuch Su came back soon, a

There were several red envelopes wrapped in red paper on the tray, each one was bulging inside, which made Yu Yueli's eyes widen. The emperor waved his hand, and Eunuch Su was about to distribute these red envelopes to everyone below, except the engagement prince.

, who makes him older than the emperor? When it comes to Yu Yue Li, Yu Yue Li immediately results, and then pinches the inside, the smile instantly falls, let alone, hard, prototype, eight, this emperor

Did she take this story seriously? It was really just eight copper coins? She was still expecting the emperor to give her something generous. "Stingy." Yu Yueli couldn't help but mutter. She couldn't earn back what she gave away.
