The moment the box opened, it caught everyone's attention.

I just watched a delicate and small glass-like thing being taken out of the box by Gao Yang.

Those in the crowd who knew this thing couldn't help but shout, "It's a rare mirror in the world!" ”

"Rare in the world?"

Everyone exclaimed, and their eyes involuntarily fell into the hands of Princess Gaoyang.

I saw Gao Yang raise her hand slightly and erect the magical mirror, and suddenly, one of her faces was clearly reflected in the mirror, which was a hundred times clearer than the bronze mirror, "This thing is good!" Thank you, Brother Six! ”

In contrast, Gao Yang's liking for this object was more than his liking for the prince's gift.

Even the gifts for the princess's banquet are also exquisite, on the surface, it seems that everyone has not discussed it for a long time, and directly sent things in, but in fact, they were ready to bring them up.

The crown prince was the first to send it, and the rest of the princes could only be smaller than the prince's, not bigger than him......

And at the moment, in terms of size, it is obvious that Chu Yi's is much smaller than the prince, but if you can get the princess's liking, it depends on Gao Yang's personal.

The prince smiled and looked at Gao Yang playing with the mirror in his hand, but he had already remembered the sixth child in his heart.

Even on such an occasion, he has to be on a par with himself, at least that's what the prince thinks at the moment.

Yuen Long returned to his seat, his eyes moved slowly, as if looking for something in the crowd, and finally at the moment when he met Xi Yao, he smiled, and his smile was exceptionally clear and moving. Look at a room of Miss Spring. I was confused.

It was the two of them who looked at each other and were seen in Zhou Youcheng's eyes.

Originally, one of the reasons why Zhou Youcheng was very confident in marrying Xi Yao into the Prime Minister's Mansion was that he thought that Yuen Long was not his opponent at all.

However, when he was able to meet at the banquet today, seeing that Yuen Long was actually a handsome boy who was even more outstanding than him, Zhou Youcheng couldn't sit still, and then saw that Xi Yao's attitude towards Yuen Long was even closer than himself, and Zhou Youcheng was even more uneasy in the depths of his heart.

Seeing that all the princes had finished giving the gifts, the eunuch walked up the middle steps, swept the dust in his hand, and was just about to open his mouth to announce the music and dance, when he suddenly saw Gao Yang wave his hand at him, "Slow, there is still a gift that has not been delivered!" ”

After speaking, he lowered his neck and looked at Xi Yao arrogantly.

Xi Yao got up from his seat generously, walked out of the crowd, and saluted in the direction of the emperor and empress, and gradually saluted in the left direction and the right direction, and then snapped his fingers and looked randomly in the direction of the back hall of the main hall.

I saw Bai Moyang, who was still in his seat just now, didn't know when he went to the back hall, and at this moment he was pushing a shiny and shiny thing that was full of plugs and pulls and looked colorful like food.

There are three layers of that thing, all of which are in the shape of a disc, the lowest layer is slightly larger, the second layer is smaller than the lowest layer, the top layer is the largest, between the three layers, the bottom layer is yellow, and a layer of lychee fruit is placed on the top, the second layer is light red, and a layer of peach flesh fruit is placed, and the top layer is purple, and a layer of orange petals is placed.

These three-tiered pagoda-like things are placed on a tabletop, and what's even more amazing is that there are four small wheels under this tabletop, which can be rotated by pushing.

Gollum turned to the middle of the banquet, Xi Yao spread out her hand and introduced, "Princess, this is the gift I promised to give you - cake"

"Cake? Is it delicious? "I guessed that what Xi Yao sent was food, and Princess Gaoyang's saliva was about to flow out.

Xi Yao smiled slightly, "Whether it's delicious or not, I have to taste it first." ”

pursed her lips and swallowed her saliva secretly, the princess stretched her neck and looked around from top to bottom, and then looked at Xi Yao with great difficulty, "Qingying, but how to eat this thing?" ”

Some of the people at the banquet nodded.

They were watching and pondering the matter.

At this time, Xi Yao looked at the emperor in the high position of the palace, "If you want to eat this thing, you have to ask for the permission of the Lord Long Live." ”

"My permission? Let's talk about it first. ”

"It stands to reason that this thing should be cut with a knife, but there is a etiquette system in the palace, and you can't bring a knife into such a banquet, and the courtiers know this truth, so they don't dare to make a time, so they make a knife-like tool that specializes in cutting this cake, in fact, it is a small knife without a blade, but there is no permission from the Lord of Long Live Lord, and the little woman does not dare to take that thing up, and now she wants to ask for the permission of the Lord of Long Life."

As soon as Xi Yao's words fell, before the emperor could reply, Gao Yang had already stepped forward, "Father, the sons often tell you that Qingying's craftsmanship is the best, don't you always believe it?" Today is an opportunity for you to try her hand at her craft, so that your daughter can learn from her in the future, right? Okay, father? Anyway, if it is not bladed, it is a very small knife, and it will not hurt people, so let the people around the father hold it and cut it according to Qingying's instructions, okay? ”

The queen hesitated, and was about to open her mouth to stop it, but the words that came to her mouth were swallowed back.

This is also Gaoyang's home field, the other party is the eldest lady of the General's Mansion, and it has nothing to do with herself and the prince if something happens. Thinking like this, he didn't say anything to stop it.

The emperor pondered for a long time with thick eyebrows, and finally waved his hand, "That's it, Gonggong Kang, you go and take a look." ”

This is allowed, according to the emperor's request, Gonggong Kang quickly took out an unedged knife only as long as a palm from the back hall, walked to the cake, and cut off a small half of the top layer of the cake according to Xi Yao's instructions.

Gao Yang stood by and watched, frowning, "Such a beautiful thing, after the knife, there will be no more." ”

Gonggong Kang reacted quickly, and according to Xi Yao's instructions, he quickly cut the cake into small pieces. According to the etiquette system in the palace, this thing must be tested a priori before it can be given to the masters to eat.

The little eunuch then stepped forward, ate the small pieces of cake pulled out from each layer one by one, and finally chewed it, showing a surprised look on his face from time to time, and he saw the people around him swallow their saliva.

Finally, the last small piece was inspected, Gao Yang couldn't wait to hand over the two largest pieces and the best ones to Gonggong Kang and send them to the emperor and empress, and then sent the next small pieces to the palace maid and asked the palace maid to send it down.

So, there was such a scene, everyone held a small plate containing the cake, swallowed saliva, and watched the emperor and empress sitting in high positions taste the cake.
