As the year draws to a close, time always passes faster. After the morning court session, it was rare that no one was waiting in front of the imperial study to discuss politics. Si Xi said with a smile, "Your Majesty, do you want to go out of the palace for a walk? The streets are very busy recently."
Liam asked: "What's the good news?"
"There are no big happy events, but there are small happy events every day." Sixi said, "It's almost the New Year, and merchants are racking their brains to attract customers. There are many rare goods from all over the country. There are also many families holding weddings. It is said that if you want to hire a suona band, you have to fight for it. Even the price of beating the gong to open the way has increased by more than five times."
"You have found out everything clearly." Liam laughed, "Well, let's go out and relax."
Si Xi helped him change into casual clothes, and the master and servant did not take the sedan chair, but walked out of the palace. The streets were really lively, and there were really many families getting married. I also met a wealthy family who was scattering wedding candies as I walked. The peanut crisps were filled with crushed lotus seeds, and mixed with sweet maltose, which was a good omen.
