Chapter 389: Gift-giving

Yu Huiyi took advantage of the situation and explained: "Emperor Qi's grandmother and father, this is the relic of Huiyin's high monk after he sat down. ”

When everyone heard this, their faces showed shock.

It is rare to see a relic in a hundred years, and I am fortunate to have a look at it today!

Emperor Liang was also surprised and asked, "How did you get it?" ”

Yu Huiyi replied respectfully: "Erchen learned that there are high monks sitting in Putuo Temple half a year ago, so there is a long time to visit one after another, after eating fasting and reciting Buddha all day long, the host of Putuo Temple saw that Erchen was sincere, and today he handed over the relics to Erchen, saying that it is a person who is destined to cross the Buddha." ”

When the people heard this, they were amazed.

Yu Huiyi continued: "The imperial grandmother eats fasting and recites Buddha all the year round, and it is the best thing to give you this relic. ”

In a few words, he not only explained the hard-won relics, but also explained the reason why he was late.

"Grandson wishes the imperial grandmother, a long life, and a high year."

When the Queen Mother heard this, she smiled from ear to ear, praised Yu Huo a few words, and even got up and folded her hands in front of the relics and said.

"No wonder the mourners feel that there is a strange fragrance, thinking that this relic is worshiped by incense, which is very amazing. Quickly, Huo'er followed the mourning family into the Buddha hall and offered the relics at the highest place. ”

Rufeng handed over the relics to Yu Huiyi, and he immediately took them solemnly, and then sent the relics to the special Buddhist hall in the queen mother's bedroom.

After a full half of the incense burning, the two returned to the feast, presumably there was a ritual of burning incense and praying, so it took some time.

"Queen Mother, the auspicious time has arrived, can you announce the feast?"

Emperor Liang asked, and after getting approval, he took the lead and stood up.

The people in the seat also stood up immediately, and said in unison: "I wish the Queen Mother a long blessing and a long life!" ”

The Queen Mother's smile stretched out, and she said a few words "good".

"Everyone is a family, you don't have to be formal, just sit down."

After everyone thanked them, they sat down.

Emperor Liang gave the chief eunuch a look and signaled that the banquet could officially begin.

The music that had been prepared sounded at the right time, and then the dancers rushed in and danced in the main hall.

For a time, the hall was staggered. Everyone understands in their hearts that the most satisfying thing about this birthday banquet is Yu Huiyi.

Some people are unwilling and helpless.

Who made his mind so meticulous and planned this half a year ago?

The queen mother was in a very good mood because she got the relics, and she moved her chopsticks even again, and the aunt Suxin next to her was also very happy when she saw it.

After the song and dance performance, the dancers stood still and took a pose, slowly unfolded the red silk cloth prepared in advance, with some words of blessing written on it, and then congratulated in unison: "I wish the Queen Mother a good birthday, may the Queen Mother be safe and healthy." ”

The Queen Mother was overjoyed, knowing that this was the emperor's arrangement, and gave her another surprise, and even said a few times to the dancers: "All are rewarded."

The dancers thanked each other and withdrew.

"Emperor, it's hard for you to put so much thought into your mourning family." The Queen Mother said happily to Yu Aodong.

"Queen Mother, you are polite, this is what the sons and daughters should do."

The Queen Mother nodded, turned to look at the people at the banquet, and asked, "How many faces are there this year, I heard that General Xu's family members are also present?" ”

Emperor Liang nodded and said, "Exactly, I heard that they have also prepared a congratulatory gift for you." ”

"Oh? Is it? The Queen Mother was aroused and asked, "Where is the daughter of the Xu family?" ”

Xu Zhilan and Xu Ting got up at the same time and saluted the Queen Mother.

When the Queen Mother saw the two little girls with clear eyebrows, she also liked it very much.

Song Zilin stood up and called "Queen Mother" sweetly, successfully putting the Queen Mother's eyes on her.

"Speaking of the daughter of the Xu family, Zilin and her also prepared a program to present to the Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother smiled with relief: "The mourning family knows that Zilin has always been the most caring, so show it to everyone." ”

Xu Zhilan reacted at this time, and the two of them joined forces in private, she watched Xu Ting walk out with a happy face, and pouted secretly.

Xu Ting stood in front of a qin, first saluted in a regular manner, and then exchanged glances with Lord Yi, and then sat in front of the qin.

Just listening to the prelude, I knew that this song was cheerful, and Xu Ting even opened her mouth and sang the "birthday song".

Song Zilin danced with a cheerful smile on her face.

Since the bonfire competition, she has been practicing her dancing skills hard, and she secretly vowed to get back what she lost.

At today's birthday banquet, these two people are working hard to shine among many female dependents.

The festive singing and dancing once again mobilized the atmosphere of the banquet, and everyone was very energetic.

After the performance, the two congratulated in unison, and then presented their respective congratulatory gifts.

Xu Ting prepared the Buddhist scriptures she collected, while Song Zilin prepared a string of sandalwood Buddhist beads.

The Queen Mother was very satisfied with the performance of the two, and when she saw that the congratulatory gift was also heartfelt, she sincerely praised a few words.

Nangong Qin, who was sitting in the banquet, heard the praise of the Queen Mother, and raised her eyebrows in her heart, her daughter really gave her a long face.

Emperor Liang looked at Xu Zhilan, who was doing well, and said, "Another daughter of the Xu family, can you prepare a birthday gift?" ”

She knew that Emperor Liang was helping her, and she was familiar with it in front of the Queen Mother, which was very good for her future path.

So she smiled gratefully, stood up and spoke.

"The courtiers are not talented, and they will dedicate the sachets embroidered by themselves to the Queen Mother."

When everyone heard this, it was too shabby to take the sachet as a congratulatory gift, not to mention that the Xu family did not have the money to prepare expensive gifts.

Although the Queen Mother was puzzled, she still took the sachet, which could only be regarded as a decent look, neither ugly nor eye-catching, but the sachet did not contain some ordinary spices, but exuded a fresh herbal smell.

She put the sachet close to the tip of her nose and smelled it, feeling that the smell was very comfortable, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's in it?" When I heard it, I felt that my body was a lot more relaxed. ”

"Back to the Empress Dowager's words, the courtiers put some Chinese herbs in, all of which are effective medicines for insomnia and headaches, if you put them next to your pillow when you sleep, you can sleep peacefully all night."

After listening to Xu Zhilan's words, the Queen Mother couldn't put it down with this little sachet.

Seeing this, Emperor Liang interjected in a timely manner, "Queen Mother, she is the Xu Zhilan that your sons often mention to you." ”

When the Queen Mother heard this, she looked at Xu Zhilan with some surprise, "You are Xu Zhilan who made a marriage with Huo'er?" ”

When she heard this, she immediately became a little embarrassed.

The Queen Mother beckoned to her and motioned for her to come with her.

Xu Zhilan walked up to her, bowed, and said: "I wish the Queen Mother a long and long life, and her health and health like the wind." ”
