Night Banquet at the Palace.

The ministers were seated according to their titles and grades, and a golden pot and silver cup of elixir and jade liquid were placed on the table, and the delicacies carefully prepared by the imperial kitchen were placed on the plate.

The dishes named after auspicious words, such as the five blessings, the four seasons are like spring, the eight treasure pearls, the jade and other dishes named after the auspicious words, make people salivate just by looking at them.

Zhao Guangyi was wearing a dragon robe and sitting on a dragon chair, his face full of red light. Queen Li, dressed in a phoenix crown, dignified and solemn, sat beside her.

At the bottom sat a group of dragon disciples and dragon grandsons led by Zhao Guangmei, the king of Wei. Behind them, sat a group of princesses, princesses, princesses, etc.

His Royal Highness is divided into left and right sides, on the right side are the civil and military officials, and behind the civil and military officials are their wives and children; Sitting on the left is the envoy of Fanbang.

The time for the birthday banquet has arrived.

Wang Jien shouted.

"Let's have a feast!"

In the hall, everyone congratulated Zhao Guangyi on his good life and peace.

After taking their seats, a pair of singers and dancers began to perform magnificent songs and dances one after another.

The civil and military officials, the envoys of Fanbang, all began to watch the performance and eat delicious food at the same time.

The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors.

The dedication session begins.

Starting with Zhao Guangmei, the king of Wei, Zhao Guangmei glanced at Zhao Pu, who was sitting quietly, gritted her teeth, got up and left her seat, and sent her eldest son to give her birthday gift.

"Brother Congratulations to Your Majesty, long life without borders."

Wang Jien took the birthday gift, opened it, and presented it to Zhao Guangyi.

In total, one hundred and eight round and smooth walking beads.

Walking beads are precious in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of the royal family, this thing is just an ordinary valuable. With Zhao Guangmei's identity, this gift is indeed a bit shabby.

Zhao Guangyi knew in his heart that Zhao Guangmei at this time was about to be forced bankrupt by Zhao Pu. Therefore, he did not blame Zhao Guangmei.

"The emperor's brother has a heart, give him a pot of wine."

Zhao Guangmei started, and the dragon sons and grandsons all rushed to offer their congratulatory gifts.

These congratulatory gifts are all precious and rare things.

Even Zhao Defang, the Eight Sages King, who was known for his fairness and integrity, also gave him a priceless painting of the true work of the saint Wu Daozi.

There is only Zhao Yuanzuo, an upright guy, who sent a congratulatory gift of "The Book of Filial Piety" that he copied by himself a hundred times.

However, Zhao Guangyi also praised him for his filial piety.

After the dragon sons and grandsons finished their congratulatory gifts, it was time for the civil and military officials.

Most of the civil officials are high-minded, and the congratulatory gifts they give are some calligraphy and paintings. The civil officials who like to drill the camp are specially collected antique calligraphy and paintings; The fair and honest civil officials sent all the paintings they painted by themselves.

The congratulatory gifts given by the generals and nobles were miscellaneous, and there was everything. Anyway, it's all weird, but it has a beautiful meaning.

Yang Yanping, on behalf of the Yang family, gave him an ancient famous sword, called the Cicada.

Is this stunning cicada really an ancient famous sword? Anyway, Yang Yansi hadn't heard of it.

I have to admit that Zhao Guangyi is still very kind to the Yang family. accepted this famous sword and promoted Yang Yanping's knighthood on the spot. Yang Yanping was promoted from a baron to a viscount, and he was also the founding county prince.

Among the civil and military officials, the most conspicuous gifts belonged to the two congratulatory gifts given by Zhao Pu and Pan Renmei.

The congratulatory gift given by Zhao Pu is a sketch portrait of Zhao Guangyi.

Yang Yansi had to admit that Zhao Pu had worked sketching, although his skills were not superb, but the painted Zhao Guangyi was already eight points similar, which was rare in this era.

Zhao Guangyi Longyan Dayue, promoted to the title of Taifu, and the title was changed from Liang Guogong to Xu Guogong. From the official position of the first product, he was promoted to the first product.

The official residence has achieved the subversion of the people.

Zhao Pule couldn't close his mouth.

Pan Renmei asked her son Pan Bao to send a congratulatory gift of a huge stone, the stone is dim and yellow, faintly showing a longevity character.

Zhao Guangyi liked it very much, and gave the stone the name of Heavenly Mandate Stone.

Pan Bao was also rewarded for this, and Captain Xunyun was reappointed as Captain of the Flying Cavalry and was promoted to one level, and the Captain of Zhiguo of the Seventh Rank was promoted to the Captain of Zhaowu of the Sixth Grade.

Pan Bao almost jumped up with joy.

Pan Guifei also received a reward because of her younger brother, and kept flattering at Zhao Guangyi.

In the main hall, the ministers were rewarded. A happy scene.

Suddenly, the lights in the main hall gradually dimmed.

In just three or four breaths, only a few bronze finch lamps in front of Zhao Guangyi's eyes were left on in the main hall.

Zhao Guangyi's heart was Lingran, and he broke out, "What happened?" ”

Wang Jien came to Zhao Guangyi upside down, "Your Majesty, don't panic, the surprise that those little cubs have prepared for you is about to appear." ”

When Zhao Guangyi heard this, the big stone in his heart fell, and when he saw that the ministers were in a trance, he was a little flustered, so he said something to appease.

"Zhong Aiqing, don't be impatient."

After appeasing the ministers, Zhao Guangyi glared at Wang Jien reproachfully, "You, you!" is dozens of years old, and he is still messing around with a group of cubs. ”

The Daqing Palace, and even the eunuchs and palace maids in the entire palace, are all in charge of Wang Jien. If he hadn't participated in it, it would have been impossible for the lights in this Daqing Hall to go out.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

A neat clapping sound sounded in the depths of the Daqing Palace, in the dark corner.

Immediately afterward, a little spark of light gradually lit up in the dark corner.

Forty-one burning flames, dazzling in the darkness.

In the main hall, everyone was quiet, staring at the lights and slowly approaching.

"It's ...... What is it? ”

"Is it a newly rehearsed dance art in the workshop?"

In the hall, everyone was secretly speculating, and everyone's curiosity and eyes were attracted by the lights.

The lights moved into the temple.

"Smack!"

The clapping stopped, and the bronze finch lamp in the main hall started from the middle and slowly lit to both sides.

A disc-shaped, huge cake appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

A large milky white cake with a circle of cherries on top, and forty-one red candles slowly burning around the cake. On top of the cake, the brown sweet sauce outlines a huge picture.

Four figures emerged from under the small wooden cart covered by a white cloth.

"Wow~"

The people in the temple were shocked.

Dressed in a big red robe, one person carries a large red lantern with the word "longevity" written on it.

"I wish you a blessed life and Tianqi, and I wish you a happy birthday......"

After some salutes, he played like a treasure, jumping and singing, and sang cheerfully, which suddenly made the tense atmosphere in the hall become joyful.

The ministers in the hall all laughed.

The ministers were also a little more reserved, and the generals laughed out loud.

Zhao Guangyi was also happy, stretched out his index finger and pointed at Wang Jien, but because of the laughter, he couldn't speak.

After the four of them burst into laughter, they found out that it was their heirs who were playing treasure in the field, and their faces immediately darkened.

"Boy (Emperor's nephew)! I wish Your Majesty a blessed and blessed life......"

After the four of them played the treasure, they presented their nephews and bowed down to Zhao Guangyi's knees.

Zhao Guangyi laughed and said, "You four stinky boys, you really gave me a surprise." also gave everyone Aiqing a surprise! Get up, and tell me what this gift is for me. ”

The first to speak was Wang Shilong, his mother's princess, and Zhao Guangyi was his uncle, who could get close.

"Today is Your Majesty's birthday, and the emperor's nephew and Yang Yanzhao have specially prepared this birthday gift for you. This thing was made up by a few of us, and it hasn't been named yet. After you've tasted it for a while, you can give it a name. ”

Zhao Guangyi walked in front of the cake, and when he saw the picture on the cake, he was happy.

"Reward! One hundred taels of gold, a thousand pieces of silk cloth. ”

Everyone wondered why the emperor opened his mouth to reward the cake as soon as he saw it.

Stretching his neck to take a look, he realized the mystery.

Half of the giant cake is decorated with various fruits and the four big characters of 'Fushou Tianqi'. The other half is a map of the Great Song Dynasty.

The reason why Yang Yanzhao and the four of them were rewarded was because of this picture.

Because, on this map, there are sixteen states of Yanyun.

Zhao Guangyi's lifelong wish is to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun, and now that he has seen the sixteen states of Yanyun appear on the map of the Great Song Dynasty, can he not be happy?

Fortunately, the Liao envoys are far away, and the seats are not as high as the cake, so they can't see the map above, otherwise they will definitely stand up and find fault.

Zhao Guangyi was overjoyed, circling around the cake, not knowing how to start.

Yang Yanzhao gave a wooden knife and handed it to Zhao Guangyi.

Under the guidance of Yang Yanzhao, Zhao Guangyi cut the cake from the middle.

There was a eunuch who was waiting for Zhao Guangyi around and wanted to come forward to try it, but was stopped by Wang Jien after glaring at him.

Wang Jien came to Zhao Guangyi like a dog's leg, couldn't wait to choose a piece of cherry fruit, ate a bite, and dug up a piece of cake, which was sweet.

After tasting it, Wang Jien greedily licked the cream on the side of his mouth and stood beside Zhao Guangyi.

"Your Majesty, please eat."

The implication is that it is not poisonous.

After Zhao Guangyi cut a knife, the rest was handed over to the eunuchs around him to complete.

Cao Wei wanted to help, but was stopped by Yang Yanzhao.

Yang Yanzhao clearly remembered that Yang Yansi had ordered.

The cake has a map of the Great Song on it, so when cutting the cake, ask them not to interfere.

If he is given a hat to eat the Great Song Dynasty by the imperial historian in the future, it will be miserable.

The eunuchs who served by Zhao Guangyi's side were all spiritual people.

Although the people have never eaten the cake, when the cake is cut, the auspicious words written and the fruit are distributed to the envoys of the Fanbang.

If there is a map of the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, it will be cut according to the state capital controlled by the civil and military officials, and they will be divided into ministers.

Pieces of cake were placed in front of everyone.

Cao Wei prepared a wooden spoon for everyone, and when he arrived at the royal family, he replaced it with a silver spoon.

Zhao Guangyi ate first, he dug out a piece with a silver spoon and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Good!"

Zhao Guangyi shouted out a good word, and the ministers and Fanbang envoys also began to eat it one by one.

Then, after eating, their eyes widened.

Some people who are not qualified to share the cake can only watch others eat it and swallow their own saliva.

Yang Yanqi belongs to the category of those who are not qualified to eat cakes.

The emperor didn't speak, and Yang Ye didn't dare to give the cake to his wife and children.

A huge cake was eaten up by everyone in just a quarter of an hour.

Although the cake is big, it can't hold many people.

After everyone finished eating, they were still unsatisfied.

Zhao Guangyi wiped his mouth under the service of the palace maid, with a smile on his face.

"You four little ones, have had a unique birthday for me. I feel your filial piety, and I am very relieved. ”

"The four of you stepped forward to listen to the seal."

Yang Yanzhao and the four of them glanced at each other, and they all saw the joy in each other's eyes.

The four of them knelt down on one knee in front of Zhao Guangyi.
