Chapter 117: Treating Wolves as Dogs
"Luo Lan understands."
After replying to this sentence, she generously walked to the vacant seat next to Leng Xi and sat down, Leng Xi didn't forget to squeeze her eyes with a side face, but Luo Lan didn't pay attention to him, she didn't have much affection for the royal people.
She noticed Yu Qiaoqiao who was squinting and chuckling at her on the other side, she nodded to her to show friendship, and Yu Qiaoqiao also nodded to her.
Ah Cai and Ah Hong saw that their master had changed positions, and they also quietly came to stand behind her.
Everything was calm again, and the eunuch in charge shouted loudly:
"Next, please give birthday gifts to the younger generations one by one."
Hearing this, the first person to speak was Wu Linlin, she sat in place, bowed slightly and said:
"Originally, Erchen prepared a dance, thinking of wishing his mother and concubine, but this waist can't move, so then Erchen will play a song for his mother."
Hearing this, Concubine Chang praised with a smile on her face:
"Linlin has been versatile since she was a child, and she deserves to be the first talented woman in the capital.
Being praised by others, the corners of Wu Linlin's mouth rose slightly, and she proudly took the pipa handed over by her subordinates, and flicked it with her ten fingers, and the melodious music flowed out from between her ten fingers.
Luo Lan didn't think her song was good, if she was allowed to play it, it would definitely be ten thousand times better than her, but she didn't like to be in the limelight, and others were pretending to listen to it attentively, so she would listen to it for the time being.
At this time, Leng Xi leaned towards her and said in a low voice:
"Can the imperial sister-in-law understand the rhythm?"
"I don't understand."
Luo Lan directly denied it, "How can people from the countryside understand music?" ”
Seeing that she didn't like to take care of herself, Leng Xi sat up straight and closed her mouth a little boringly.
The repertoire played by Wu Linlin ended quickly, and everyone applauded, and the praise was endless.
Wu Linlin slapped her hands outside twice, and someone came in carrying something covered with a red cloth.
She raised her pretty face and said proudly to Concubine Chang:
"Mother, on your birthday, the prince really has something to drag out, let the son send you a gift for him, I hope you don't dislike it."
As she spoke, she waved her hand at her subordinates, and the red cloth covering the thing was revealed, and inside was a huge jade Ruyi carved from white jade.
This thing looks like it's worth a lot of money, and Concubine Chang is naturally happy to close her mouth, and nod happily,
"Thank you Yun'er for the mother, this great gift, the mother is really happy."
The emperor couldn't help but praise there, "I like this thing very much when I see it, Yun'er really has a heart." ”
Wu Linlin replied with a smile:
"When the father celebrates his birthday, let the prince make a bigger Ruyi for his father, the prince said, with this jade Ruyi to celebrate his birthday, I wish my father good health, I wish my mother all the best, I wish Daning Guo, Kangtai ten thousand years."
The emperor loved to hear this, and Concubine Chang was so happy that she couldn't keep her mouth shut, and everyone praised her again, saying that the princess was beautiful and sweet, and that the prince was cold and sensible.
Wu Linlin's eyes were full of pride, and at the same time, she hated Luo Lan even more, if it weren't for her, how could she flash her waist, if she didn't flash her waist, her best Phoenix Dance would definitely surprise everyone again.
According to the order, it is now the turn of the people from the Yu Palace, because among the princes, Leng Yu's age is second only to the crown prince Leng Yun.
The emperor looked at Luo Lan, who was bowing his head and contemplating, and asked:
"Princess Yu, what birthday gift did you bring?"
Luo Lan really didn't want to listen to Wu Linlin's music, and she didn't want to hear her say those flattering words, so at this time she was thinking about what Leng Yu said to her last night.
In order to find out about Mama Sun, she told Leng Yu before she came that she would find an excuse to stay in the palace for one night today, and go back tomorrow to arrange for the people who would go to Ningguta with him, and then prepare the items he would bring on the way, and they would set off tomorrow night before the city gate was closed.
So she thought that tomorrow she would bring Leng Yu some of his favorite osmanthus cakes, and bring more silver, the weather over there was cold, and she had to bring more warm clothes, it was really not good, buy him a set of fox fur dalu, but this capital doesn't seem to be able to buy, if he said earlier that he wanted to go, how good it would be to make one for him.
"Princess Yu......"
The emperor's voice suddenly raised, and Luo Lan, who was in the fugue, was pulled back to her thoughts by his voice, and she sat up straight, and let out an unknown "oh".
Leng Xi frowned and muttered in a low voice:
"Hey, sister-in-law, my father asked you what birthday gift you prepared for Concubine Chang?"
After Leng Xi's reminder, Luo Lan realized that it was her turn.
At this time, Wu Linlin was looking at her with schadenfreude, as if she wanted to see her ugly.
Everyone's eyes were focused on her, because everyone knew that Yuwangfu was very poor, and he would definitely not be able to bring decent gifts, half of which were people who watched the excitement, and half of those who were worried about her.
Luo Lan got up slowly, and everyone noticed that she didn't have anything in her hand, and she only brought two girls when she entered the palace, and she didn't see anything in it.
Wu Linlin, who realized this, looked at her and said with some pride:
"What kind of gifts did Princess Yu prepare for her mother? It's so mysterious, take it out and we'll take a look! ”
Seeing Wu Linlin ask like this, everyone's eyes looked at her together, as if they had the intention of coaxing, Chang Guifei seemed to see that she didn't bring anything, so she pretended to be atmospheric and said to her:
"If Princess Yu doesn't have time to prepare, it's okay, it's good that people are here."
As soon as she said this, Wu Linlin pursed her lips and said contemptuously:
"Even if the life of King Yu is poor, but you can't help but prepare some small gifts, this is the minimum respect for the mother, I think Princess Yu must have prepared some mysterious gifts for us not to know, right? Princess Yu? ”
Her words were so harsh, it was unpleasant to listen to, Luo Lan chuckled at the corners of her mouth, and sneered at her,
"The crown princess is really smart, today is the birthday of the mother, how can I do it without gifts, but my gift is a bit special, I am afraid everyone here has not seen it."
After saying this, she took out a delicate square box from her pocket, golden packaging, which looked very high-end.
Looking at the box in her hand, Concubine Chang asked with some surprise:
"What is in Princess Yu's hand?"
Luo Lan bowed, "If you go back to your mother, this is deep-sea fish oil." ”
Her words made the people present stunned for a while, everyone didn't understand what she was talking about, and the emperor asked with a curious look:
"What is this fish oil used for? Food? ”
Luo Lan pursed his lips and chuckled, opening the box in his hand, revealing two transparent bottles inside, containing golden pills, which looked very good.
She took out one of the boxes, held it up in front of the emperor, and explained softly:
"Back to the emperor, this deep-sea fish oil is a beauty product developed by Luo Lan himself, this thing is applied to the face by women, it can beautify the skin, delay aging, and make the skin smooth and elastic."
