Concubine Xi Guifei sat beside the emperor, looking at Yue Li and Ye Qin's eyebrows, she covered her lips and smiled, and said to the emperor:

"Your Majesty, you see that the eldest princess and Lord Ye are really a pair of people looking across the river."

Only then did the emperor recover from the spirit of being immersed in the performance of the concubines, and followed the eyes of Concubine Xi.

Seeing that Yue Li just threw a wink at Ye Qin, and Ye Qin also smiled at it.

The emperor suddenly felt that today's birthday was not fragrant, and his daughter was remembered.

His eyes sank, and he whispered, "What nonsense! ”

Concubine Xi, who was reprimanded, was not annoyed, so she asked with a smile: "Doesn't the emperor think that they are very compatible together?" ”

The emperor looked at their interaction intently, although he didn't want to admit it, but he looked like a talented and beautiful woman, and he was really a good match.

Yue Li didn't know at the moment that she still didn't know that she had been remembered by her father.

Counting up, this eldest princess is also over 17 years old, and if you look at it according to folk customs, she is really an older unmarried girl.

"Celestial Princess, I don't know what congratulatory gifts the eldest princess has prepared for the emperor today?" Concubine Xi asked with a question.

She didn't want to watch the low-ranking concubines below compete for favor anymore, it was not interesting, it was like this every year, although she was in the cold palace for the first three years, and she didn't have the opportunity to see this grand scene.

When Yue Li heard this question, her beautiful eyes flashed, was it finally her turn to appear in the main event.

She was a little excited, but replied reservedly: "Xi Niangniang, it's just that Su Yue made something with her own hands, and she can't deserve anything." ”

Oh? Something you make with your own hands?

The Emperor was suddenly in a state of interest.

"I made something with my own hands, so I can be regarded as a blessing for my eyes this year, can I actually see such a clever side of my eldest princess?"

Yue Li stood up and gestured outside the hall.

A group of palace people carried a 1.5-foot-high thing and slowly walked into the hall, and several other palace people carried a table and placed it in the center of Chaoyang Palace.

Yue Li smiled with satisfaction, and when they put the cake on the table, she walked over to the cake and stood.

Motioning for everyone to take a good look, she pulled open the red cloth that blocked the cake and carefully lifted the lid.

A large three-tiered cake was revealed, decorated with red and white cream, and cream flowers underneath.

The higher the layer, the more delicate it becomes, until the top layer, two big longevity peaches are made on it, and there is a Fu Lu Shou old man in the middle.

The whole cake is full of birthday greeting elements.

Pointing to the cake, he said, "Father, this thing is called the Birthday Cake, which was seen in a book by Sulphur Yue, and he was surprised to see it, so he made it tentatively." ”

"Everything on it is edible."

The emperor sat on the top of the hall and his eyes widened, as if he was disgusted that he could not see clearly, and quickly got up from his seat, walked down the steps, and came to the cake, and carefully observed.

Concubine Xi in the back saw that the emperor had gone down, and she was also a little curious, so she followed the emperor down the steps and observed the cake.

The surrounding ministers and concubines were also very curious, but the emperor had already gone to watch first, so it was difficult for them to walk over, so they could only hold back their curiosity.

scratching his ears and cheeks, waiting to be solved.

Yue Li was very satisfied with everyone's reaction, she picked up a knife from the side of the cake, handed it to her cheap father, and motioned for him to cut it.

The emperor saw such a strange thing for the first time, and there was still a faint aroma that attracted his taste buds, and he took the knife, he didn't know where to start.

The whole cake was so delicate that he even wanted to keep it as a collection.

Yue Li still saw what he meant, and whispered in the emperor's ear:

"Father, this is just food, and it won't last long."

When the emperor heard Yue Li's explanation, he sighed, but it was a pity that he couldn't keep the collection, so he cut the first layer with a knife and divided a piece of cake.

Yue Li hurriedly motioned to the little maid with the plate next to her, went to put the cake on the plate, handed it to the emperor, and gave the emperor a spoon.

Now that the emperor had been given a piece of the cake, he had just cut it and felt that it was a very soft thing.

He tentatively scooped a piece with a spoon and brought it to his mouth. The creamy part is so sweet that it melts in your mouth without chewing at all.

The cake is fragrant and soft, and the taste is fantastic.

After the emperor took a bite, his whole eyes lit up, and he felt that his whole body was about to fly, he had never eaten such a delicious dessert.

After eating one bite, the ministers and concubines next to them looked at the emperor's happy expression and swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva. Waiting for the emperor to describe the taste of this thing!

The emperor was speechless, only gave a thumbs up, and praised: "Yue'er's craftsmanship is a must!" I've never eaten anything so delicious! ”

Yue Li smiled when he heard the emperor's praise, and if he could be liked, he lived up to his hard work for so many days.

The Emperor looked at the ministers around him, as if he wanted a reward.

He looked at the three-tiered cake, waved his hand, and rewarded the bottom two layers, leaving himself the most delicate and best-looking top layer to taste carefully.

There were so many ministers and concubines that each of them could only get a very small piece to taste the taste.

Yue Li forcibly took two large pieces from the hand of the palace maid who shared the cake, one in each hand, walked up to Ye Qin and handed him a piece.

"Taste! The craftsmanship of this princess! You're going to be amazed. ”

Ye Qin looked at Yue Li's Qianqian Rou and handed him the food he had made himself, he took the cake from her hand with satisfaction and took a bite.

After a while, Yue Li saw that Ye Qin's eyes were all glowing, and he tasted the cake in his hand carefully, and soon, he finished eating.

He wiped his mouth nobly, "Well done!" Next time Ye Mou's birthday, I want the princess's birthday cake to congratulate. ”

Yue Li pouted, how could this man see everything and want everything! Does he know how long he has worked hard, and he wants to say it so lightly!

"Think beautifully!"

"The minister wants it!"

Yue Li looked at Ye Qin's strong appearance and was a little helpless, she didn't want to be led by Ye Qin's nose.

"Then you just think about it!"

Yue Li looked at Ye Qin provocatively, she liked to see that he couldn't get used to himself and couldn't kill himself.

Ye Qin frowned, and looked at Yue Li dissatisfied. He didn't seem to understand why his legitimate request had been denied.

"The eldest princess has to think clearly, how does Ye remember that it seems that a guard told Ye recently." Ye Qin leaned into Yue Li and whispered, "Assassin's trace." ”
