Section 905: Presentation of Birthday Gifts

Nangong Yulan stepped forward and knelt down and saluted: "I wish the emperor and queen a long life than the green mountains, and a long life." ”

The emperor looked at Nangong Yulan with interest and said, "Calm down." ”

Nangong Yulan took out an item from the storage ring, held it respectfully with both hands and said, "This is the birthday gift Chongming pillow given by the concubine to the mother." ”

With a move of the emperor's hand, the object fell into the hands of the emperor, and I saw that the pillow was one foot two inches long and six inches high, and it was smooth and transparent more than crystal. There is a balcony in the pillow. There are ten Taoist priests around the platform, holding incense and hand boards in their hands, walking around in a loop in the pillow without stopping, and they are called "Taoists". The roof tiles, wooden eaves, and paintings on the balcony in the pillow, as well as the hairpins on the heads of the real people in the streets, and the draped clothes on their bodies, can be seen clearly, and they are as transparent as if they were looking at things in the water.

"This thing is exquisite, I don't know what it does?" asked the emperor.

"Back to the mother, this pillow can assist in cultivation, concentrating on peace of mind, it is said that if you can understand the story in the pillow, you can get the fairy fate in the pillow. Nangong Yulan replied crisply.

"Oh, is it that good? Then why don't you keep your sister to cultivate by herself. The Empress asked with a subtle smile on her face.

"It's embarrassing, the concubine is stupid, and she can't understand the deep meaning in the pillow, so I think only a talented person like Niangniang can understand the mystery. Nangong Yulan complimented.

The emperor smiled, and no longer embarrassed Nangong Yulan, and said, "My sister has a heart, thank you sister for the gift." As soon as his mind moved, he put the pillow into the storage ring.

Nangong Yulan kowtowed and retreated, and the concubine praised Nangong Yulan when she saw the emperor on the side, and couldn't help but snort coldly, with a look of disdain. Concubine Xi, Concubine Shu, and Concubine Rong lowered their eyebrows but did not say a word. The emperor and queen just didn't hear it, behaved solemnly, and sat silently on the phoenix chair.

Under the seat, the slender waist is slender, Gu Xuan's posture is the concubine, the long eyebrows and plump cheeks, the slender and moderately short is the concubine Xi; the long and beautiful, the graceful and elegant is the concubine; the concubine is graceful and gorgeous, the body is even and healthy, and there is a unique charm.

Concubine Shu slowly stepped forward and knelt down and said: "The concubine wishes the emperor and the mother a blessing to the sky, and this gift to the mother is also the same meaning, the concubine heard about the essence of Venus, and fell on the west side of the Guifeng in Zhongnan, and the essence changed into a white stone, which looked as beautiful as jade, and often covered it with purple mist. The special person found it out and carved it into the appearance of His Majesty and Niangniang, hoping that the emperor and the queen would like it. ”

After speaking, Concubine Shu waved her hand, only to see a purple mist lingering on the ground, and after the whiskers dissipated, a two-zhang long sculpture appeared in front of everyone, which was the appearance of the emperor and the emperor sitting on the dragon and phoenix chair.

The emperor smiled and said: "Sister Shufei has a heart, come on, put this statue in the middle of the courtyard, next to the fountain." ”

Some palace people had already heard this, and stepped forward to remove the golden spirit sculpture, and Concubine Shuli retreated. Concubine Rong walked forward slowly, knelt down and bowed, and said: "Fu Wushuang has been double to this day, coinciding with the two happy events of Niangniang's birthday and the triumph of the court, the concubine specially prepared a jade for Niangniang to ward off evil spirits, this gift, I hope that the emperor and Niangniang will have happy events every day." As he spoke, he waved his hand and took out a brocade box from the storage ring, which was also made of jade, and as soon as he took it out, everyone in the hall smelled a strange fragrance.

The emperor made a move, and the brocade box fell steadily into the hands of the emperor, and the emperor opened the brocade box, only to see that there were two pieces of jade to ward off evil spirits, each one foot five inches high. The ingenuity of jade to ward off evil spirits is almost not something that can be achieved manually. After the box was opened, the aroma of the jade became more and more intense, and the entire hall was filled with this strange fragrance.

Concubine Rong said: "This pair of jade evil spirits is far away, jade evil spirits and clothes are contaminated, the fragrance on the clothes does not go away for many years, even if the clothes are washed in water many times, the fragrance cannot be washed off." And legend has it that these two jades ward off evil spirits, will make laughter, to perceive the good and evil, if there is a happy event, they will laugh out loud. ”

"Oh, yes, then why don't you see it laughing now?" The emperor didn't believe it, but he still couldn't help but take it in his hand and take a look, as soon as he held this hand to ward off evil spirits, he heard the sound of jade to ward off evil spirits, and kept laughing, and the emperor put it back in the brocade box, and immediately stopped laughing.

"It's kind of interesting. The Empress nodded approvingly.

The concubine said on the side: "Sister Concubine Rong, this jade is really magical, it can predict good and bad fortunes, and laugh when there are happy events, if there is something bad, will you cry and exchange tears?"

The emperor's and Concubine Rong's faces changed at the same time when they heard this, but Concubine Rong quickly said with a smile on her face: "This jade evil spirit is now at the emperor's house, even if it wants to cry, I'm afraid it won't be able to cry, right?"

Hearing Concubine Rong say this, the emperor's face became happy again, and said, "Sister Concubine Rong is bothered." As he spoke, he put the jade evil spirit ward off into the storage ring along with the brocade box.

After Concubine Rong stepped back, Concubine Xi stepped forward and bowed, and took out a clear and glowing pearl from the storage ring. The pearl has a diameter of one foot, the color is black as lacquer, but the light is undiminished, and it is dazzling. The emperor liked it very much, and beckoned the beads in her hand.

Concubine Xi said: "This pearl comes from the bottom of the Yin Spring. Yin Spring is in the north of the cold mountain, in the round water. The water in round water often flows in circles. There are black mussels in the round water, flying back and forth among the five mountains. The black clam is a thousand years of pearls, 10,000 years to grow into such a size, hang this pearl in the air, all kinds of ghosts and gods can not hide their original faces, not to mention the monk's stealth technique, sticking to the skin is all over the body is cold, so the name is the cool bead of the summer. ”

The emperor held the orb in his hand and praised: "This is really a rare treasure! ”

Concubine Xi retreated with a smile, and the concubine came to her in the sound of Huan Pei Jue, and slowly wanted to bow down, but the movement was extremely slow, as if she was waiting for someone to call her free at any time. The emperor frowned slightly when she saw it, but still said, "Sister Ximen doesn't need to be so polite, hurry up." ”

The concubine didn't want to do this ceremony for a long time, just now it was just a show, and when she heard the emperor speak, she hurriedly stood up and said, "The things that your sisters gave to your sister are not bad, but I believe that my birthday gift should be even better."

"Oh, what does my sister want to give me?" said the concubine, and the emperor couldn't help but ask with interest.

Ximen Guifei took out an object from her sleeve and said, "This is it." ”

Everyone looked at it intently, only to see that the concubine was holding a rhino guide in her hand, the rhino guide was black throughout, and only a thin white line in the middle of the rhino guide penetrated the whole body, which was the sign that the heart had a spirit and a little bit of rhino guidance.

Although this Tongtian rhino horn is also considered to be the most famous spirit animal material, but for the royal family, such an unpretentious Tongtian rhino guide, it is undoubtedly too cold to take it out as a birthday gift.
