The queen mother's birthday feast is approaching, Zhou Heng carefully prepared a gift, Cui Keyin copied two more scriptures, and offered them in front of the Guanyin Bodhisattva case of Daxiangguo Temple on October 15 to pray for the queen mother.

The Queen Mother gave two hundred taels of silver to the Great Xiangguo Temple, and the great monks of the Great Xiangguo Temple did a ritual to pray for the eternal stability of the country.

Although two hundred taels is not much, but the queen mother gave it, the meaning is very different, and the clans, nobles, and ministers must not share the grand event, and the Jin Wangfu also donated two hundred taels.

This grand ceremony is scheduled to be held on October 20, the first day of the Queen Mother's birthday, for three consecutive days, and the people of the capital are allowed to watch.

Therefore, Daxiangguo Temple overwhelmed the temples in the capital and became the first temple in the capital.

On October 20, after receiving the ceremony, the Queen Mother still held a banquet in Fengyi Garden. The queen and Cui Keyin sat on the left and right of the queen mother.

Li Xiuxiu sat in the corner of the hall, looking at Cui Keyin, who was wearing a red princess dress in the middle of the hall, and the hatred in her heart was hard to get rid of, and when she was biting her silver teeth, Lan Xiang quietly came over and said in her ear: "Manager Ma said that King Jin gave him a diorama. ”

There was no glass manufacturing process in this dynasty, so glass products have always been bored products and are very expensive. Diorama is a mirror that uses glass instead of copper mirror. The best diorama, not to mention the price, is hard to find.

"Diorama?" Li Xiuxiu rolled her eyes and said, "I am grateful for letting Mr. Ma break the diorama." ”

Soon, Lan Xiang replied, and Ma Liang agreed, asking for three thousand taels.

The Dingxing Marquis Mansion is not what it used to be, and I am afraid that I will not be able to take out three thousand taels, but Li Xiuxiu still agreed. As long as the Queen Mother can dislike Zhou Heng and Cui Keyin, she is willing to pay any price.

The Queen Mother watched the lively scene. said to the queen with emotion: "If Li Xuanshi's child is still there, it should be three or four months old at this time." ”

How nice it would be if the emperor had a child.

The queen didn't want to sweep the queen mother's happiness, and said with a smile: "The queen mother has always been sincere, Guanyin Bodhisattva is grateful for the sincerity of the queen mother, and will definitely give the emperor a child." ”

The Queen Mother remembered the ceremony held at the Great Xiangguo Temple at this time, and nodded again and again: "I hope so." He glanced at Cui Keyin again and said, "You've been through the door for more than a month, and you haven't moved." ”

Is this anger? The concubines who heard this all tried to bury their heads in the dishes in front of them.

"......" Cui Keyin stopped his chopsticks to look at her.

"See what I do? What about Ah Heng? Find him, and the mourners have something to say to him. "The Queen Mother is actually quite worried that Cui Keyin is pregnant. The concubine has a child. The emperor is still empty under his knees, how will the courtiers make a fuss?

Ma Liang hurriedly asked the little chamberlain to invite Zhou Heng.

In the Yinghua Palace, Liu Youdao, the imperial historian, and a group of colleagues said: "Didn't you see that the gift given by the prince of Jin to the queen mother is called a precious." Then a diorama. I can't find it. ”

Zoetrope. As the name suggests, it comes from the West. If you don't have a ship to go to sea, where can you go to sea?

It's twenty this month. Liu Youdao's task has not yet been implemented, and he has not handed over a letter of impeachment until now. This is more uncomfortable for the imperial history who specializes in finding ballast than for a super enterprising imperial history, especially for a super enterprising imperial history.

Yushi has the right to hear about it, and he has already made up his mind to look for opportunities from the Queen Mother's gift. Therefore, he came early in the morning and kept his eyes fixed on the gifts given by the nobles of the clan.

Zhen Guogong sent two corals of one foot three, he thought that this month's task would fall on Zhen Guogong, but he didn't expect King Jin to be too surprising, and he actually sent a diora that shone brightly without a trace of impurities. This diorama is inlaid with rosewood, and a pair of colorful phoenixes flying up and down are carved around the mirror.

This is clearly customized for the Queen Mother's birthday feast.

When all his colleagues heard him say this, they all knew that he had accepted this "business".

Those who didn't see it asked how valuable the diorama was.

Liu Youdao said: "Oh, you're late, you've already been put into the treasury." I happened to be at the right time, and I was lucky enough to take such a picture from afar, which really scared me, the mirror was so bright that even the wrinkles at the corners of my eyes were visible. ”

The bronze mirror used by everyone every day can only show a vague figure.

Some curious people asked, "Where did you get it?" If it's not expensive, you can also get a side of filial piety and filial piety to your mother. ”

As soon as these words came out, he was immediately spat on. If it's not expensive and easy to touch, King Jin will get it as a birthday gift for the Queen Mother? Isn't that brainless?

The discussion in the side hall naturally could not reach Zhou Heng's ears, he sat under Emperor Zhi'an, ate two mouthfuls of food from time to time, and watched singing and dancing for a while, looking like he was enjoying himself.

At this time, it was a "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix" that was played, he listened attentively, and suddenly felt someone pulling his sleeve, turned his head to look, and Emperor Zhi'an leaned his head over and said, "Where did you get that diorama, get me a side too." ”

Zhou Heng was very surprised and said, "What is the use of the imperial brother coming?" ”

You are a big man, what do you do in the mirror every day?

Emperor Zhi'an said: "I want to send one side to Concubine De." If you think of a way, it's not as good as giving it to the queen mother, it's okay. ”

Zhou Heng said: "This diorama was sold by a Hu man, saying that he had no money to go home, so he had to sell this treasure as a last resort." After the younger brother bought it, he asked a master craftsman to inlay the rosewood wood, carve a colorful phoenix, and dedicate it to the queen mother. ”

Because it is made of glass, everyone naturally thinks that it is very valuable and is the best gift.

When Emperor Zhi'an heard that it was bought from a Hu man, he was disappointed and said, "Why don't you buy more noodles?" ”

Zhou Heng spread his hands and said, "Brother Chen wants to, but he is shy in his pocket......"

Well, everybody knows that this stuff is expensive.

When the two bit their ears, the little chamberlain came, and the Queen Mother ordered Zhou Heng to go to Fengyi Garden to meet him.

"Look, it must be the Queen Mother who was overjoyed to see such an outrageous gift, so she summoned the King of Jin to meet her." Guo Shouning said to Tang Tianzheng, but he accidentally spoke a little louder, and was heard by many people.

Zhou Heng arrived at Fengyi Garden, saw Bi, and smiled at Cui Keyin, who was sitting next to the Queen Mother.

Cui Keyin was also looking at him, signaling him to be careful with his eyes. had a good birthday, but suddenly had a hard time, and sure enough, it was the menopausal old lady who was the most difficult to wait.

"What are you doing with your eyebrows?" The Queen Mother was not happy.

Zhou Heng and Cui Keyin said in unison: "No." ”

"And said no. The mourners have seen it. The queen mother was unhappy and said: "Ah Heng, you have already married, don't just play all day long, you should give birth to an heir as soon as possible, and continue the incense." ”

Zhou Heng said seriously: "What the queen mother said is true, the sons must no longer be playful, change their minds, and be a good man." ”

Why does that sound so cold? The Queen Mother said unhappily: "It's good that you understand the hard work of the mourning family." ”

Before he finished speaking, Ma Liang ran in, crying and saying with a sad face: "Niangniang, it's not good, the diorama offered by the prince of Jin is broken ......" (to be continued......)
