The birthday of the emperor is a rare opportunity for officials and nobles, and only the meritorious princes, dukes and several marquis are eligible to participate in the emperor's birthday banquet. The rest of the vassal kings are not even qualified to eat and drink for a meal, only for gifts.

As for this gift, it is also exquisite, if it is heavy, it will be impeached by the official for extravagance, and if it is light, it will be embarrassing, how can it be mixed in the aristocratic circle?

Wei Zheng didn't think about it so much, others were holding gift boxes and waiting to present them to the Emperor Taishang in person, showing their faces in the guests, he was different, a basket of longevity peaches was directly handed over to the ceremonial officer, and a basket of self-made longevity peaches was put together with the gold and gems given by those who were not qualified to participate in the birthday banquet.

The banquet was placed in the Taiji Palace, Li Yuan, as the birthday star and the emperor, sat on the dragon chair again, and Li Shimin set a small table next to the dragon chair.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Li Chengqian, as the prince of the Tang Dynasty, took the lead in standing up, and the drunken and hazy princes and others immediately sobered up, and the next thing was the highlight of this birthday banquet!

Li Chengqian knelt on the ground, kowtowed respectfully, and after getting up, he said: "Grandson wishes the emperor's grandfather a blessing like the East China Sea, and a longevity better than Nanshan!" ”

After speaking, a eunuch held a half-sack of things and put them in front of Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian opened the bag, and everyone found that there were some small bags of grains inside.

"This is when the grandson was short of food in Anmin County, the people put it together and gave it to the grandson one by one. It is a piece of the people's heart to the grandson, my master said, although the grains are coarse grains, but it is conducive to the stomach and health, and the emperor's grandfather is uncomfortable every cold day, this is a grandson's heart to the emperor's grandfather, and the people of Anmin County will be very happy to know that this 10,000 family of rice can be given to the emperor's grandfather as a gift. ”

Li Yuan stepped down from the throne, grabbed a handful of food, and nodded: "You have a heart, the gold and jade jewels can't be drunk when you're thirsty, and you can't eat when you're hungry." This coarse grain is good, good boy, get up! ”

Li Yuan helped Li Chengqian up, and led him to the dragon chair, and asked the palace maid to set up a small stool for Li Chengqian, and the meaning of care was undoubtedly revealed.

Li Xiaogong, the king of Hejian County, and others were vulgar, and they gave some treasures.

Li Ke is now at the border, and his gift was given by Concubine Yang, otherwise she would not be qualified to appear here as a concubine on this occasion.

Two net rackets, a big net, a badminton badminton made of feathers, and a letter are Li Ke's gifts.

Concubine Yang opened the letter and read:

"Ke'er kowtows to the imperial grandfather, may the imperial grandfather be healthy and blessed. Ke'er is in the army and can't offer a birthday gift in person, so I hope the emperor's grandfather will forgive me. It's called 'badminton', and it's a lot of fun, and you can keep fit while laughing......"

Concubine Yang bowed down and wanted to retreat after reading the letter, but was stopped by Li Yuan.

"Ke'er has a heart, and the things he sent are very much in line with my wishes, Concubine Yang, you also have the merit of parenting as his biological mother, it is a pity that the beads sent by Xiaogong are made into bead curtains, I gave it to you."

Concubine Yang bowed down: "Emperor Xie is rewarded." ”

Li Xiaogong didn't feel good in his heart, those beads were all crystal clear and high-grade, but they were given away by the Emperor Taishang, it was really ......

Li Tai left the banquet in the middle of the banquet, and when it was his turn, he walked in with a bowl of steaming noodles.

Li Yuan looked at the flour on Li Tai's face and knew that this noodle was made by this kid himself, and pushed away the eunuch who was going to try it, and he personally took the noodles that Li Tai was holding.

Li Tai respectfully knelt down and kowtowed and said: "The emperor's grandfather has a big birthday, and his grandson made a bowl of noodles with his own hands and dedicated it to the emperor's grandfather. ”

Li Yuan looked at the poached egg in the bowl and asked, "Is there anything special about this egg?" ”

Li Tai was stunned for a moment and scratched his head: "It's just an omelette, nothing special, but my grandson likes to put two poached eggs when he eats noodles, especially this kind of egg yolk that almost solidifies a little bit, it is the most delicious, Grandpa, if you don't like to eat, you can give it to me!" ”

Li Yuan laughed when he heard this, and all the princes also laughed, Li Yuan ate the poached eggs one by one, looked at Li Tai's depressed expression and said, "The eggs you want to eat are gone, haha!" ”

After the royal family's birthday gift was delivered, it was the turn of the princes, Du Ruhui sent a jade inkstone with impurities quite like clouds, and Fang Xuanling gave an ancient painting, which was triumphant among the courtiers.

Although Pei Lin also had a seat, his dignified Duke Wei was arranged in a place where several marquis stayed, and he was about to be squeezed out of the main hall.

And when several Hou Ye saw him, it was like seeing a plague god, and they would rather huddle together than share a table with him.

Pei Lin doesn't mind this, hum! The dignified prince sent food, the king of Shu sent toys, and the king of Wei was even more embarrassed, and he made a bowl of noodles as a birthday gift! Hum! Fang Xuanling's puppet just gave him a century-old painting, and he was proud!

Pei Lin stroked the box and wood beside him, this is a treasure in the world! It took a lot of effort to snatch it in Lao Yuan's hands in the morning, and that Lao Yuan cried bitterly while holding the treasure, and he didn't want to think about it, if he could please the emperor......

After the gifts of those marquises, it was Pei Lian's turn.

Pei Lin carefully picked up the box and the gramophone, walked to the front with shame and dignity, handed the gift to the eunuch, and told him to take it carefully, and then arranged his robe and bowed down after the instruction: "Pei Lin greets Your Majesty, and I wish my emperor long live long live long live!" ”

Just this sentence, the ministers almost laughed out loud when they heard it, the current emperor is Li Shimin, and the title of "Your Majesty" can only be given to Li Shimin, if you pat the emperor's fart, don't you think about what His Majesty the current emperor thinks?

Li Shimin doesn't mind, of course he doesn't mind, what else does he care about with a person who is about to be finished, since Leng Feng asked the queen to invite Pei Lin to the birthday banquet, it is obviously for a purpose. Judging from Leng Feng's divine foreknowledge before, it is very likely that Pei Lin will finish playing at the banquet!

Li Shimin found that his father was looking at him, with a hint of apology in his eyes, obviously because he was afraid that his son would be unhappy because of Pei Lian's title. Li Shimin smiled slightly, indicating that he didn't care.

Only then did Li Yuan put his mind at ease and asked, "Pei Lian, what good things did you bring so nervous?" ”

Pei Lin smiled: "Naturally, it is not comparable to the congratulatory gifts given by these laymen!" This thing is called gramophone wood and sound wood, and it is a treasure that is rare to see for thousands of years! ”

Pei Lin opened the brocade, and a piece of ordinary wood with slag at both ends appeared in front of everyone.

"This is gramophone wood, don't look at it is no different from ordinary wood, but it is born with the aura of heaven and earth, and it can record the sound for three years! Unfortunately, it was made into the wheel of my carriage, and it almost became famous......"

After speaking, Pei Lin looked at the people with disbelief on his face with satisfaction, and couldn't help but raise his chin: "This box is made of another treasure with the same name as gramophone-sound wood. Although the gramophone will record the sound, it will not emit sound, and only when it meets the sound wood, will it freeze the sound it records and release it from the sound wood. ”

"Doesn't that seem ridiculous?" Pei Lin glanced at Fang Xuanling, who wanted to speak: "Facts speak louder than words!" ”

After speaking, Pei Lin put the "phonograph" into the box of the "sound wood......

The sound of birds chirping, the neighing of horses, and the sound of carriages pressing the road immediately rang out.

The eunuch holding the box almost threw the box out!

"There is such a strange thing in the world!" Li Yuan strode down and snatched the box from the eunuch's hand.

The various princes and ministers who were sitting in their seats also left their seats rudely, and came to the side of the Emperor Taishang to hear more clearly.

At this time, the carriage may have driven to the gambling house, and there was a faint "bar!" "Huh!" "A dragon!" Wait for the voice to come out.

Li Yuan laughed: "It's the first time I've seen such a strange thing!" Pei Lian, you have a heart! ”

Pei Lin grinned and bowed down and said, "If you can make you happy, it's Weichen......"

"I heard that you are the old friend of the Emperor, we are very curious about the Emperor and his old man, I don't know what kind of hero he is."

A human voice came from the box, and it was very clear.

"Heroes? Just him? What kind of thing is he! If it weren't for his second son asking me to persuade him to raise troops, would he be able to become the emperor? Phew! ”

"Then how can you say that the Emperor Taishang is also very good to you."

"Why didn't he treat me well! Without me, can he be the emperor of this wretch? Since he is the emperor, he has to support me! Liu Wenjing, that bastard, always says that I am fortunate to enter, this is jealous that my status is higher than his, as long as I speak in the court, he will always oppose it. Drinking too much and saying you want to kill me, hehe, kill me? I am the great benefactor of the emperor, who dares to kill me! It's strange to blame Liu Wenjing for being unlucky, his house is haunted, so he asked a wizard to exorcise evil spirits and wear a knife at night, which is very weird. It just so happened that his concubine was a money-lover, so I bought him to report Liu Wenjing for rebellion. Hahaha, what about Li Shimin's efforts to protect Liu Wenjing, he just forgot that his father listened to me. I muttered a few words to Li Yuan's stupidity, and he was bent on cutting Liu Wenjing...... Hahahaha. ”

Pei Lone's voice came out of the box clearly, and the laughter of "hahaha" was still echoing in the Taiji Palace......

"You...... You ......"

Li Yuan pointed at Pei Lin and was speechless, "What kind of thing is he!" The voice of "wreckage" was still echoing in Li Yuan's head.

Pei Lin was shocked! This...... How can it be! That's not what I said! Not what I said!

"How can you say that about the Emperor! I used to think that you were a loyal minister, and in order to maintain the imperial power, you tortured and killed Liu Wenjing's orphan and tortured his wife and daughter, but I didn't expect you to just vent your anger! ”

"Be quiet! Shouting made my ears hurt, what happened to me who tortured and killed Liu Wenjing's escaped child! What happened to me paying the teacher to torture his wife and daughter! I am Li Yuan's benefactor! It's Wei Guogong! Prime minister! I ......"

"I didn't expect to know such scum as you, I'm so angry, I'm so angry! Ah......h

"Shopkeeper, what's wrong with you, what's wrong with you...... Someone's coming. ”

Lao Yuan's "ah" sound overlapped with Pei Lian's current "ah" sound.

"Ah...... It's not what I said, it's not what I said! ”

Pei Lin waved his hands like crazy.

Li Yuan threw the box aside, picked up a dish on the table next to him and smashed it on Pei Lian's face, the vegetable soup poured Pei Lin all over his body, and a lot of it splashed everywhere.

"Rebels and thieves! I treat you well! You're ...... It turned out to be ......"

Li Yuanqi didn't breathe up, he fainted, and there was a mess in the Taiji Palace, Li Shimin hugged his father and shouted to the imperial doctor. Li Chengqian shouted, "Such a strange thing, what's the use of keeping you!" "Although he picked up the box and ran to the pillar and smashed it, he took something from the bottom of the box on the way......

"Traitor!" Fang Xuanling was closest to Pei Lian, and kicked Pei Lin to a table with one kick. Who said that civilians can't use force?

"Damn! Damn it! Wei Zheng blushed and picked up a plate of dishes and smashed it!

Inspired by Wei Zheng, everyone served dishes and smashed them to Pei Lian!

"Ah...... Ah......" Pei Lin was smashed by the overwhelming vegetable plate and kept screaming!
