Volume 1 22 Special Birthday Gifts
The palace maids in dance costumes danced in the hall in a regular manner, but there were always some restless dancers who kept giving those officials and sons flattering eyes, and the three most handsome people in this Tai Chi Hall were of course no exception.
Yan Wuxin looked at the dancing girls who secretly sent autumn waves to him, and smiled at the corners of his mouth, but no one knew what she was laughing at, if it was said that the prince fell in love with the dancing girl and didn't look like it, everyone felt that the prince's mind was more difficult to guess than the emperor.
Leng Yufeng didn't even look at those dancing girls, just drank the wine on the table, for him, those women were not as painful as the wine, if it weren't for the emperor's birthday banquet, he would have thrown these coquettish women out a long time ago.
Phantom Moche looked at the scenery in the hall warmly, but he didn't look at those dancing girls, the eyes of those dancing girls were directly ignored by him, Phantom Moche suddenly felt that no matter how beautiful these women were, they were no more than the prince, they were simply dirty eyes.
The dancing girl made the atmosphere in the hall much more harmonious, and the birthday banquet that had just been snubbed because of Concubine Xin also became lively, after all, today is the emperor's birthday, and everyone is not beaming.
"Father, my sons wish my father a long life and good health!" The eldest prince presented a landscape painting drawn by himself, and knelt respectfully in the Taiji Palace, although this painting is not amazing, but it is better than what he made by himself.
"Well, the eldest prince has a heart!" Emperor Xu asked Gonggong Xu to put away the painting, and he was quite satisfied with the painting. The Emperor never called his children by name, and many ministers also knew that the emperor treated these princes equally, which also caused several forces to be divided in the court, and the emperor also had some forces.
"Father, my sons wish my father good luck and good health!" The second prince stood in the hall in a blue brocade robe inlaid with gold thread and said respectfully, and as he spoke, he offered a lotus plant that he had worked hard to collect, and the lotus was actually purple and blue, which looked strange and beautiful.
The second prince is the son of Concubine Ning, Concubine Ning has always been a concubine who does not fight or grab in the palace, whether it was or is a very stable lord, so there are not too many concubines in the palace who will have any hatred for Concubine Ning, and Concubine Ning loves to worship the Buddha and usually loves to stay in the Buddhist hall in her own palace. Concubine Ning has two children, one is the second prince Nanhai, and the other is the third princess.
The Emperor looked at this unique lotus and nodded with satisfaction, and everyone also knew that the emperor seemed to be most satisfied with the second prince today.
"Father, my sons wish my father a long life than Nanshan, and happiness like the East China Sea!" The third prince, Yan Chengying, congratulated and said that the birthday gift he presented was a good jade, and he knew that it was worth it by looking at the color. He originally thought that he would be able to please his father today, but his mother was so disturbed, I was afraid that no matter what the birthday gift he gave, his father would not look at him differently.
With the fake prince of Yan Wuxin, the emperor has a total of five princes and four princesses, and Yan Wuxin is the youngest and youngest child, and the nine children in charge are indeed pitiful in the royal family, and it is also because the emperor never touched those women after the queen entered the palace in the autumn of that year, which led to the thin royal heirs, after all, the thin heirs of the royal Suo Ran may not be able to have a few after calculation, but these emperors don't care.
Next, every prince and princess has already given birthday gifts, and only Yan Wuxin sat there and kept tasting the things on the table, eating a few bites when he encountered something good, and frowning when he encountered something he didn't like and no longer touching it. Others may not have noticed these little appearances of Yan Wuxin, but Fan Moche and Leng Yufeng, who were sitting next to her, saw it clearly, and both of them felt that the prince's greedy appearance was indeed very cute, so cute that they wanted to treasure such a picture.
"It's... It seems that the prince has not yet presented a congratulatory gift! Concubine Qin said with some hesitation, she had just seen the cruelty of the prince, and now although she wanted to damage the prince's face, she didn't dare to show that it was too obvious, thinking that the last time she hired a killer to kill the prince was unsuccessful, Concubine Qin felt more and more that this prince was not simple.
As soon as Concubine Qin's words fell, everyone looked at the prince, although they didn't dare to be as rude as Concubine Xin just now, but everyone was still very curious about what birthday gift the prince would give to the emperor, after all, the emperor's birthday prince was hiding in the mansion and did not participate.
Yan Wuxin put down the dim sum in his hand, then took a box from fearless hands and stood up, "Father, sons and daughters wish my father good health!" ā
There is no new birthday speech or no intentions, everyone thinks that the prince is too casual or the prince is too rampant, but the smart people feel that the prince's bearing is extraordinary, and there is no hypocrisy in the officialdom.
Gonggong Xu put away the box in the prince's hand, and the emperor didn't look at it, but the fourth prince said loudly, "I don't know what the congratulatory gift presented by the prince is?" Why don't we all feast our eyes? The fourth prince Yan Ancang seemed to just want to see the congratulatory gift presented by the prince, but in fact, he knew very well in his heart that the prince's mansion was very poor, how could there be any good birthday gifts, and it was a very happy thing to let the prince lose face in public.
The mother of the fourth prince, Yan Ancang, died of illness a few years ago, but he stood in the court on his own, and this person's ability should not be underestimated.
"Open it!" Emperor Yan said, Gonggong Xu opened the brocade box under everyone's eyes, and immediately the congratulatory gifts in the brocade box appeared in everyone's eyes, but everyone was taken aback, and even stood up in disbelief.
Phantom Moche looked at the birthday gift in the box and looked at the prince with some concern, thinking that if the emperor blamed the prince, he would protect the prince this time no matter what.
Leng Yufeng glanced at the box and didn't understand what the prince wanted to do, but he believed that this prince would not do useless things, he seemed to pay too much attention to this prince today, but this prince just had the ability to attract people's eyes, even his friend Mo Che seemed to be, he always saw his friend looking at the prince from time to time, which...
"Prince, today is my father's birthday, no matter how poor your prince's mansion is, you can't just take out a few bad grains of rice and present them to your father, what do you mean by this?" The eldest prince reprimanded, and even several other princes stood on the side of the accusation that the prince did not approve. Although they are not as harmonious as they appear on the surface, they have not taken it into their eyes when they were once incompetent, but now the threat of Yin Wuxin is too great, and now the position of the prince is on the body of Yan Wuxin, the first thing they need to do is to deprive Yan Wuxin of the position of the prince.
"Prince, what does this mean?" The Emperor asked, looking at the gift, and there seemed to be some reproach in his voice.
"Father!" Yan Wuxin came to Father-in-law Xu's side and picked up the box high, so that everyone could see the mottled rice grains inside, "Now there is a famine in the south, even such rice grains are coaxed by the people, but in the past few months, hundreds of people have died in the south because of the famine, so the sons and daughters present this birthday gift today just to let the royal brothers and sisters know that although the prince's mansion is poor, there are still many poor innocent people, and the sons know that the father and the emperor love the people, so they specially show their father!" ā
"Bang!" The Emperor slapped the royal table above, "For such a big thing, none of my Aiqing have been on the book?" Well, it's really good! ā
"The emperor is angry!" Many ministers fell to their knees, some of them really didn't know, and some of them didn't write books, after all, the officials who managed the south had a great responsibility when such a thing happened, and the people were the lowest in the minds of those in power.
"Brother Emperor, I don't know what you think of this congratulatory gift from this palace? Let my father know the hardships of the people, this birthday gift is shabby? Just when everyone was holding their breath, Yan Wuxin walked up to the eldest prince who was kneeling there and looked down at these princes.
"I... Iā" Yan Chengzhao was speechless, he didn't expect that there was such a thing behind a few grains of rice.
The Emperor Yan was angry, and then looked at the ministers, "The prince knows everything, you don't even know about it, it seems that you are dizzy." Now what are you going to do? ā
No one dared to speak, and no one dared to touch the dragon's whiskers when the Emperor was so angry, the Emperor looked at the ministers, and his voice was slightly kind, "Phantom Gongzi, you are a wise man, what should you do about this famine?" ā
