Chapter 243: Birthday Greetings

I don't know how long it took, with the eunuch's sharp voice sounding:

"The Queen Mother has arrived--"

"The Emperor has arrived."

Everyone left their seats one after another and paid their respects.

The rings jingled, and the glorious and luxurious Queen Mother slowly came under the support of a group of harem concubines. Dressed in a peacock blue quadruple ruyi pattern palace dress, the dark blue satin dazi show is a line placket The bird eyes on the shoulders are inlaid with East Lake pearls, which are huge and bright, shining in the light. On his wrist, he brought a string of incense sandalwood carved into eighteen Arhats' Buddha beads, which were exposed from the wide sleeves, and there were faint sandalwood incense floating out and scattered in the air. The hand with the ruby gilt ring was placed in the emperor's hand on one side and the prince's hand on the other, allowing them to support him.

On the emperor's side, the closest place is naturally Concubine Cen Guifei. Today's Cen Guifei is also very eye-catching, the spirit snake bun is pulled up high, obliquely to the right, and the golden phoenix steps are swaying gently with the steps. The big red long skirt, light yellow bandeau top, and a little vermilion on her forehead make her face even more captivating.

Behind the emperor, followed by the concubines of the harem. After all, they are all people who entered the palace earlier, and now they are also yesterday's yellow flowers, although they are dressed up very fashionably, but their faces still can't hide the traces left by the years. Under this contrast, Cen Guifei's youth and beauty are becoming more and more apparent.

Someone at the bottom secretly glanced at the top, and after seeing it, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: No wonder the emperor is more and more favored by Cen Guifei, looking at the concubines in this harem, there is really no one who can compete with it.

The prince really looked like he had just recovered from a serious illness, with a pale face. The pale lips were described, and the indifferent eyes deepened. It seems to be a bottomless pool. It is even more covered with a layer of cold aura, which is unapproachable.

Even if it is his own grandmother's birthday, there is a fiery and festive celebration around him, and it seems that he can't warm the heart of the prince like a thousand years of ice.

However, even so, he is still the best husband for women in the world. What if he is as cold as ice, what if he is not close to people. In this world, I am afraid that there is no woman who not only hopes to be able to ascend the throne of the crown princess, but also wants the prince to be gentle and considerate to her. It's only good for herself, right? People who think this way can only say that she is too greedy.

More women's thoughts are: I want the throne of the crown princess, I want the majesty of the future mother, and I want to enjoy the glory and wealth of the world. As long as there is power. What else is there not to be gained?

So more women gathered their hatred on Miss Gu Er. I am jealous that she does not have the posture of captivating the country and the city. I was fortunate to be favored by the crown prince; I was jealous that she didn't have the talent to be proud of the world, but she could be selected by the emperor; I was jealous that she didn't have an unbeatable identity background, and she could be appreciated by the queen mother...... In a word, if the second lady of the Yuanning Marquis Mansion is really elected as the crown princess, she will become the public enemy of women all over the world.

If the reason why Concubine Cen is rampant in the harem is because of her noble status as the princess of Liangguo, and Miss Gu Er, what is it for?

At this time, where did Miss Gu Er still care about the strange eyes of others? Her heart was full of grief. What I thought about again and again was Gu Zhirong's death.

She remembered that the fifth sister had said it. A person must have the courage to pursue his own happiness and be with the people he likes. And it was precisely because she listened to the words of the fifth sister that she found the person she liked. And what about this fifth sister, didn't she also say that she would stay with her lover for the rest of her life?

After three rounds of wine, the emperor first wished the queen mother a long life, and then raised his head to drink the wine in the cup.

Next is the prince, who drank the wine from the glass in his hand after congratulating. Because the body is just healing, and the injured part is close to the heart, it is very dangerous, and it should have been well rested and not drunk. Now that a glass of wine has gone down, the wine has risen immediately, and his pale face has rendered a hint of crimson.

The prince seemed to be unsatisfied, and watched the cup in front of him be filled again, and casually picked up the wine glass and drank it again. Suddenly remembered something, and put down the cup in a daze.

Next, the three princes, Princess Zhaomin and other two people also toasted the queen mother one after another and delivered congratulatory speeches.

The body of the third prince seems to be getting better and better, walking with a breezy and windy, although his face is still a little pale, but it is much better than before, and his middle qi seems to be very sufficient, and there is a faint loud breath.

The third prince toasted three glasses of wine, until he drank the third glass, the emperor finally noticed the strangeness of this son, and hurriedly said: "Xuan'er, you are weak, this wine is strong, drink less." ”

The third prince smiled heartily: "Thank you for your father's care, but my son has been walking more recently, and he has taken Shennong flowers, and his body has become much stronger than before, and he can almost draw a bow and shoot arrows." ”

For a long time, the third prince's body was so bad that he couldn't even pull the bow. When he said this today, he just wanted to prove that his body and bones were almost good.

The emperor was very pleased: "That's good, if the Shennong flowers are not enough, just go and get them." ”

The third prince was overjoyed and said, "Thank you father." ”

King Su also came to congratulate the Queen Mother, although he is a son of Vietnam, but he should also be called the Queen Mother "grandmother".

King Su looked respectful, looking like he was toasting to his own grandmother, and the Queen Mother was also smiling lovingly, and uninformed outsiders would definitely think that this was a pair of grandfathers and grandchildren who had a harmonious relationship.

King Shou was indeed the last to arrive, and as soon as he came in, he hurriedly kowtowed to the Queen Mother and pleaded guilty, saying that he was delayed by trivial matters in the house. His tardiness is something that everyone expected, and his excuse is really not very good, who doesn't know that the concubines in his house are jealous all day long, and they are fighting fiercely. Therefore, when everyone heard him say that he was delayed by trivial matters, they couldn't help but laugh.

Of course, at the entire banquet, the most qualified person to make fun of King Shou is, of course, the emperor. Today, the emperor was in a good mood, and looked at King Shou with a smile and said, "King Shou, you said that you were delayed because of trivial matters in the house, can you tell me for what?"

"This ......" Shou Wang couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed on his face, "It's just a trivial matter, don't mention it, don't mention it." ”

The emperor said: "I will enjoy the dishes later, and I will enjoy a few more dishes to your house, and your little things will be solved, right?"

King Shou grinned: "Thank you Brother Huang, it's still Brother Huang who knows me best." ”

The Queen Mother couldn't help but look at the emperor with a smile: "Look at this Shouwang, he is so old, he can't even solve the affairs in this backyard, he only knows how to please and cater to him, how can this be done? ”

King Shou thought that the Queen Mother was telling the truth, so he hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Brother Huang, don't, if that's the case, I won't have a peaceful birthday at all." ”

King Shou's silly appearance immediately caused the audience to laugh. The Queen Mother also smiled, took a sip of the tea cup in front of her, and hid the glint in her eyes.

Even if Shouwang's acting skills are good, he can fool all the people in the audience, but the only person who can't be deceived is her.

She watched him grow up, and his tricks could not be hidden from the merciful emperor. And the reason why she didn't move him, she was waiting, she wanted to see if this stupid prince in the eyes of people had the courage to do that. (To be continued......)
