Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and Li Chengfeng doesn't know what is the habit of celebrating the New Year in Datang.

Anyway, without the explosion of firecrackers, it seemed a little cold.

But soon, Li Chengfeng heard the sound of musical instruments and singing and dancing in the distance. Li Chengfeng walked over to have a look, only to find that they were rehearsing singing and dancing.

It is estimated that many ministers will come to the palace to pay New Year's greetings later.

So you need to welcome with songs and dances.

From the first day to the seventh day of the new year, there is no need to go to court. It can be said that this is a seven-day annual leave for all ministers.

However, they usually have nothing to do. They go to play court, retreat from court, have something to do, and they can go out to play when they have nothing to do.

Relatively speaking, the civil servants of the Tang Dynasty were much more relaxed than the military generals.

But there are still many people who choose to be generals instead of civil servants.

Perhaps in their conception, only practicing martial arts can strengthen the body and defend the country.

If you wait until the alien race invades and the soldiers are in chaos.

Then useless is a scholar.

Immediately afterwards, Li Chengfeng came to the imperial dining room, and after having breakfast with Li Shimin and others, he went to the Xuanzheng Hall to enjoy singing and dancing.

Li Chengfeng couldn't sit still. He said he wanted to go out to play, but Li Shimin shook his head and said, "Feng'er, this year is New Year's Day. Later, many ministers will come to pay New Year's greetings! You go out to play now, Don't you want to give those ministers face? Wait a while, when those ministers finish their New Year's greetings, you can go out and play casually!"

"OK then!"

So, Li Chengfeng sat on a chair in a daze, beside him were Li Lizhi and Li Mingda.

The two of them looked very happy and beaming.

During the New Year, Li Chengfeng also put on new clothes.

This new set of clothes was given to Li Chengfeng by Li Shimin last night. Li Chengfeng thought it was quite suitable, so he put it on himself.

It just so happens that the weather is quite cold now, so this wool coat is very good for resisting the cold.

Immediately afterwards, the first minister who came to pay New Year's greetings came.

They are Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling, the three prime ministers of the Great Tang Dynasty.

The three of them got up very early today and came to the palace to pay New Year's greetings.

I saw that each of them was holding an exquisite small box in their hands. That should be a New Year gift for the emperor, right?

Seeing this, Li Chengfeng couldn't help giving Li Shimin a blank look.

This bad old man is really shameless. He is so old, but he still wants someone to give him a New Year's gift? Shouldn't he give it to the children?

"Prime Minister Wei Zheng, a New Year's gift, a purple jade pendant!"

"Prime Minister Fang Xuanling, give me a New Year's gift, a piece of Changbai Mountain ginseng!"

"Prime Minister Du Ruhui, a New Year's gift, a piece of Hetian jade!"

…

Wang Dequan was at the gate, holding a brush, recording the gifts they sent.

Shouting so loudly, I'm afraid that others can't hear it.

Perhaps Li Shimin wanted to use this method to let everyone in the palace know what gifts they gave.

In this way, those who give expensive gifts will naturally have face, while those who give light gifts will naturally have ugly faces and will be laughed at by others.

As a result, Li Shimin received more than 10,000 yuan in gifts on the first day of the new year.

Li Shimin was on the dragon chair, naturally stroking his beard and laughing.

"Hurry up, hurry up, give seats to all your loves!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The three great Tang prime ministers bowed slightly to Li Shimin, and then sat on the resting table beside them.

On the tea table in front of them, there are tea, fruit and various snacks such as dried fruit.

Most of the snacks in front of Li Chengfeng were like this, some dried fruit, some fruit, some oranges, and a cup of tea.

that's it?

gone?

It's Chinese New Year, you just give me these snacks?

Li Chengfeng felt that it was not that Li Shimin was too stingy, but that there were only so many delicacies in Datang.

There are no other precious delicacies.

Immediately afterwards, Changsun Wuji, Changsun Wuyi, and Changsun Chong's family also came to pay New Year's greetings to Li Shimin.

The eldest grandson's family can be said to be generous, and they directly asked someone to bring in a large box of gold.

So Wang Dequan immediately shouted loudly: "The eldest grandson's family, send gold and ten thousand gold, and sit at the VIP table!"

"Wow, the eldest grandson's family is indeed the eldest grandson's family, they are so rich!"

"Yeah, it's ten thousand gold and gold? Just give it away, it's too cruel!"

"Well, after all, the eldest grandson's family is also the second family under the royal family. They have a lot of wealth, and ten thousand dollars is just a drop in the bucket to them!"

Many ministers looked at the eldest grandson's family with envious eyes.

On the faces of Changsun Wuji and Changsun Chong, they naturally have face.

With head held high and chest high, he came to Li Shimin, bent down, and shouted: "Old minister, grandson Wuji, to the emperor, New Year's greetings!"

"Haha, love, please hurry up, don't be polite, give me a seat, give me a seat!"

The smile on Li Shimin's face never stopped.

While admiring the gifts others gave him, he happily stroked his beard and gave the ministers a seat.

Although Changsun Wuji did commit some mistakes last year, the crimes were not too serious. Li Shimin punished their family, so this matter is over.

Immediately afterwards, Li Jing, Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, and other generals also came to congratulate Li Shimin on the new year.

They don't have anything to give away, either jade pendants, pearl jewelry, or all kinds of treasures.

Anyway, Li Chengfeng was really dazzled when he looked at the gifts in the big box.

It would be great if I could receive so many gifts myself.

…

"Father, this is a gift from my son! A glazed teacup!"

"Father, my son has also prepared a gift, it's a piece of money to ward off evil spirits!"

"Father, and me, I have also prepared a gift, it is a deep sea night pearl!"

"Huh? Pfft..."

When Li Chengfeng saw that Li Chengqian, Li Tai and others also went to give gifts to Li Shimin.

He just took a sip of tea and sprayed it out.

What the hell?

Li Shimin doesn't give his son a New Year gift? Actually~lightnovelpub.net~ still wants his son to give him a gift?

This year, there is no way to pass it!

Sure enough, being an emperor is comfortable. Everyone gives him gifts, but doesn't he want to give gifts to others?

At least Li Chengfeng received a new set of clothes, nothing else.

Immediately afterwards, Li Lizhi beside him smiled at Li Chengfeng, and said, "Brother Feng'er, I'm going to give my father a gift too!"

"Ah? What about you, have you prepared a gift too?"

Li Chengfeng widened his eyes and looked at Li Lizhi.

Li Lizhi nodded and said with a smile: "That's right, since I was six years old, I have given my father a New Year's gift every year! Don't tell me you don't know this rule?"

"How would I know? No one told me! Over there, adults give gifts to children. How can children give gifts to adults? It's all nonsense!"
