"Birthday present?" Feng Jintian was quite interested, but he didn't make a move, just looked at Xiao Xia with a smile:

"What's that?"

"Why doesn't the emperor open it and take a look?"

"I want you to sue me first."

"Actually...... It's not anything of value, it's just a box of pastries that I make in my spare time! ”

"You made it yourself?"

"Hmm...... Sort of, Gui Ying and they also helped, but it's all my idea, this pastry is different from other pastries, I guarantee you've never seen it. ”

"Really?"

"Really, really, look at it!" Xiao Xia urged, looking at him baba, hoping that he could have a surprised expression, or give two compliments, his hard work in the past few days can't be in vain!

Feng Jintian still didn't make a move, but looked at Xiao Xia with a smile, as if he was more interested in Xiao Xia.

"Natsu-chan." Feng Jintian called softly.

"Huh?"

Feng Jintian slowly reached over and held Xiao Xia's hand: "You know, I'm sad that you haven't come to see me for a few days." ”

Xiao Xia was stunned, glanced at the hand he was holding herself, and then raised her eyes to see his gentle eyes, the feeling of panic and shame came again, and she looked away with her eyes flashing: "The emperor forgives the sins, the concubine...... The concubine thought that the emperor was angry with the concubine about Concubine Fang, so she ......"

"Don't call me the emperor, call me Jintian."

Xiao Xia bit her lip, Feng Jintian on the opposite side looked at herself unusually insistently, she knew that she couldn't avoid it, so she could only call Jintian gently, Feng Jintian smiled, let go of her hand and sat up straight, and reached out to take the box:

"Let me see how special the treats you prepared for me are?"

He opened the box with his own hands, saw the round and colorful cake inside, and was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Xia suspiciously: "This ...... Is it a snack? ”

Xiao Xia glanced at the cake, on which was a big longevity character made of various nuts, and the surrounding area was decorated with various edible ingredients carved into flowers, it looked pretty good, didn't he like it?

"It's called a cake, it's mainly made of eggs and flour, and the surrounding circle is cream, and I took a lot of effort to find it, it's all edible, do you like it?"

Feng Jintian stared at it for a long time, and said with a smile: "Of course, how can you not like the things you make with your own hands, but can you eat such a beautiful thing?" ”

"Of course, but before eating, you have to put on a candle and sing a birthday song, and then blow out the candle after making a wish before you can eat, you see, I even have a candle ready."

Xiao Xia lit two small candles and inserted them on the cake, and the room was brighter again, and the two sat opposite each other, and under the candlelight, the stars in their eyes twinkled and flickered, just like their hearts were beating.

Feng Jintian looked at Xiao Xia fixedly, he liked to look at her eyes the most, so clear and pure, every time her eyes flashed and she didn't want to look at herself, she had something to hide from herself.

Although she has been looking at her like this more and more recently, and avoiding her more and more times, Feng Jintian is such a keen person, he has always known that her heart is not in him, and it is getting closer and closer to the time when she leaves him......

"Natsu-chan!"

"Huh?"

"Don't leave me!"

Xiao Xia was startled, and raised his eyes to look at Feng Jintian in surprise: "Emperor...... Your Majesty, for ...... Why? ”

"Don't leave me, okay?"

is still the same sentence, and it is such a sincere and affirmative tone, Xiao Xia panicked for a while, and she pulled the corners of her mouth far-fetched: "Your Majesty, today is your good day......"

"It's called Jintian."

"Nishiki ...... Jintian, today is your birthday, or 20 years old, once in ten years is very rare, you have to celebrate well, you see, the candles are half burned, you make a wish! ”

"Make a wish?"

"Yes, I heard that you can make three wishes on your birthday, and you have to keep them in your heart, God will definitely hear it, and will definitely help you realize it."

"Really?"

Xiao Xia smiled: "I don't know if it's true or not, just assume it's real, how about giving it a try?" ”

"That'...... You're with me. ”

"Huh? I? ”

"Yes, I don't know how to do it, you teach me."

"This ...... Okay, close your eyes first, clasp your hands together, and sincerely say in your heart: I hope to be happy every day, I hope that Jintian is also happy every day, I hope to ...... By the way, the wish cannot be spoken, otherwise it will not be ......"

Xiao Xia opened his eyes and suddenly found that Feng Jintian had arrived in front of him at some point, and he was looking at him gently.

Xiao Xia was shocked: "Jintian, you are ......"

"Shh~~ Close your eyes, I like to see you close your eyes."

Xiao Xia's eyelashes trembled slightly, at such a close distance, a fool knows what will happen next? But he was so gentle that Xiao Xia really couldn't refuse, she hesitated and finally closed her eyes.

Feng Jintian stroked her cheek and rubbed it gently, slowly lowered his head and pecked her lips, Xiao Xia's body stiffened obviously, and her eyelashes trembled even more. She wanted to open her eyes and was afraid of embarrassment, but didn't she deliberately wait for him with her eyes closed? What to do? What should I do?

Xiao Xia was in a state of confusion, she was in a dilemma, she didn't know how complicated her expression was now, and the man opposite her smoothed the wrinkles on her eyebrows in distress, and whispered: "Is it so happy to be with me?" ”

Xiao Xia was so shocked that she suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Feng Jintian in a daze, Feng Jintian's face at this time was no longer gentle, but gloomy and cold that she had never seen before.

He had already stepped back and stood up, looked at Xiao Xia condescendingly, and then turned around and walked out without saying anything.

Xiao Xia was stunned for a moment before reacting: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty, wait a minute, cake! You haven't eaten cake yet! ”

Feng Jintian didn't look back, he walked straight out of the palace gate, sat in a sedan chair that had been waiting for a long time and walked leisurely in the direction of the harem banquet venue, Xiao Xia looked at him in a daze and walked away, remembering the cold and hurt eyes when he left, Xiao Xia felt very uncomfortable.

Obviously I wanted him to be happy, how could it be like this?

Damn it! It's all my fault! Am I born to be a watery poplar woman? I don't want to be like this, he does so many things for me, I am really touched, I really want to do something for him before leaving, to make him happy, so that he will not be so lonely after he leaves, but why is it always counterproductive?

Xiao Xia sat alone in the main hall and looked at the candlestick in a daze, watching the candlestick burn out, and the candle tears fell into the cake little by little and turned into a pool of orangutans, and then condensed into pieces.

"!"

Xiao Xia raised her eyes and saw that Gui Ying and Gui Lan had come in, and the two stood aside worriedly.

Xiao Xia only glanced at them and looked down at the cake: "Let the sedan chair be withdrawn, I won't go to the dinner!" ”

Gui Ying and Guilan glanced at each other: "Niangniang, you have been preparing for this banquet for many days......

Xiao Xia laughed at herself, "The host of the banquet is tired of me, won't I make her sad if I go?" When you go to report to the emperor, you will say that I have suffered from the wind and cold, and my body is not well, so I can't go, and I will confess for me. ”

The two wanted to persuade again, but Xiao Xia stood up, folded his hands and made three wishes, took a deep breath, blew out the candle on the cake, and then stood at the table for a while, then turned around and walked out.

"Niangniang, don't you take this snack away?"

Xiao Xia glanced back: "He doesn't like it left and right, throw it away!" ”

Gui Ying and Guilan glanced at each other, Guilan wanted to persuade her, but was pulled by Gui Ying, and secretly shook her head, Gui Lan gestured and pointed in the direction of the harem, Gui Ying said in a low voice: "You go back to the palace with Niangniang first, I will walk around at the banquet, and I will bring it back when I meet Master Su and Jue Fei Gongzi, you take care of it here, you know?" ”

Guilan nodded, followed Xiao Xia's sedan chair back to the palace, Gui Ying went in the direction of the banquet, when passing by a bouquet of flowers, Gui Ying stopped at her feet, glanced at the flowers next to her, and then came back to her senses and found that there was more person in front of her, she instinctively touched the dagger in her sleeve, but heard a familiar voice: "It's me!" ”

Gui Ying took a closer look, this outfit and figure were not who the second son was, but he was standing motionless in the dark, and it was not easy to find if he didn't pay attention.

Gui Yingfu wanted to bow down, and listened to the other party: "No need! What did the emperor summon her to Qianning Palace for? ”

Gui Ying hesitated a little: "This ...... The slave and maid couldn't go in, so the emperor and the mother were inside, and the slave and maid didn't know. ”

"She's gone?"

"I'm back in the palace."

"Why?"

"...... It seems a little uncomfortable. ”

The other party's breath was obviously a little nervous: "What's uncomfortable?" Is it the emperor's ...... to her?"

"No, second young master, there is something that the slave should not say, but the current identity of the mother, you ...... You ......"

Before Gui Ying finished speaking, she felt a breeze blowing around her, and if she looked closely, the figure in front of her was not there.

She turned around worriedly and stood in the direction of Xia Yu Palace for a long time, and finally sighed softly and went in the direction of the banquet.

Xiao Xia sat in a soft sedan chair and slowly returned to the Xia Yu Palace, even if it was so far away, he could still faintly hear the sound of silk and bamboo and laughter in the direction of the Imperial Garden, it must be very lively over there, right? Everyone is full of energy to envy Feng Jintian, there are so many concubines waiting for him to take a look, he doesn't need himself for a long time, right?

Alas, Xiao Xia sighed softly, lazily returned to the palace, let the maid take off her heavy makeup, and took a flower bath comfortably, and then walked slowly in the courtyard alone, looking in the direction of the palace gate from time to time, as if waiting for something?

It was more than an hour to wait like this, the direction of the Imperial Garden was very lively, the laughter was getting louder and louder, he didn't go, Feng Jintian didn't even send someone to ask, it seems that he was really angry this time, but Xiao Xia didn't understand, he obviously didn't do anything, why was he so angry? For no reason?

"Niangniang, Sister Gui Ying is back!"

Xiao Xia came back to his senses: "Where is it?" ”

"Just outside the palace gate, Sister Gui Ying brought Master Su here."

Xiao Xia didn't say a word, just hurried to the palace gate in homely clothes.

Xiao Xia only glanced at them and looked down at the cake: "Let the sedan chair be withdrawn, I won't go to the dinner!" ”

Gui Ying and Guilan glanced at each other: "Niangniang, you have been preparing for this banquet for many days......

Xiao Xia laughed at herself, "The host of the banquet is tired of me, won't I make her sad if I go?" When you go to report to the emperor, you will say that I have suffered from the wind and cold, and my body is not well, so I can't go, and I will confess for me. ”
