After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, and singing and dancing, this birthday banquet should be pleasant and relaxed, but some people have always been scared, just like Xie Zheng, with his hand under the food table, and from time to time he touched the dagger hidden in his sleeve through her clothes, she had already thought about it, if Xiao Zhen really wanted to rebel at today's birthday banquet, then she would also let it go.

Suddenly, a group of people followed an inner supervisor to walk here, the leading soldier was dressed up, followed by two parts, the two people did not know what they were carrying one after the other, and they were mysteriously covered with a red cloth.

The inner supervisor led them to the front of the banquet and retreated, everyone at the table did not know the leader of this person, with an unknown situation, three or three sighs and two by two guesses, without waiting for Xiao Daocheng and Xiao Heng to ask, the leader saluted them, and said: "Knock to see Your Majesty, knock to see the eldest princess, the lower official Deng Cheng, is the master of the Changsha Palace, today's birthday of the eldest princess, the lower official came to send a birthday gift on the order of the king of Changsha." ”

As he spoke, he took out his own photo note and a letter from his sleeve, and continued: "This is the photo post of the lower officials, and the letter written by His Royal Highness the King of Changsha, please look at Your Majesty and the eldest princess." ”

As soon as he heard Xiao Huang's letter, Xiao Heng smiled happily, sat on it and beckoned to Deng Cheng, and shouted: "Quickly bring the letter of the little white elephant to the mourning family." ”

Xue Nushi, who was waiting by Xiao Heng's side, immediately walked down and took the two things, and when he turned around, Qu Ping also walked over, and only took Deng Cheng's photo card and handed it to Xiao Daocheng for inspection.

Xue Nushi handed over Xiao Huang's letter, Xiao Heng couldn't wait to open it, with a sincere smile on his face, and some of his peers present today were a little surprised.

If there are many brothers and sisters, it is inevitable that there will be elders who will favor them.

"The white elephant is a child, he has been well-behaved since he was a child, and now he is considerate and sensible when he grows up, which is really likable," Xiao Heng kept praising Xiao Huang, and Xie Guifei followed closely: "Grandmother, what did this white elephant tell you?" You see you smiling so happily, "Xiao Huang's biological mother is a slave of the Xiao family, with a humble status, she died of illness as early as when Xiao Huang was young, he was raised by Xie Guifei, and now Xiao Huang has please Xiao Heng, and she has also been stained."

"I didn't say anything, it's just a short parent," Xiao Heng looked at Xiao Daocheng again, and said: "Che'er, the mourning family has been thinking about it for the past two days, you might as well summon the white elephant back, the southern border has been quite safe in the past two years, besides, there is still Yu Hong guarding there, and the troops are enough, you just put the white elephant there, I'm afraid it will be redundant." ”

Xiao Daocheng seemed to be a little embarrassed, but he could barely cope with it, "This matter is in a hurry, wait for two days, and my nephew will discuss it with Shangshu Province." ”

Xiao Heng glanced at Xiao Daocheng and didn't say anything more, and then Deng Cheng said again: "Princess Taichang, this is the birthday gift prepared for you by His Royal Highness, please take a look." ”

"Open it and take a look," Xiao Heng bowed.

Deng Cheng gave the two parts a look, the two of them opened the red cloth together, but saw that the red cloth was covered with a cage, and when they saw the living creatures in the cage, everyone present was a little surprised, who would have thought that the birthday gift sent by the king of Changsha was just a bird.

Xiao Heng was surprised: "This bird is a novelty, and the mourning family seems to have never seen it." ”

Deng Cheng explained: "This is called a canary, it is both smart and dexterous, it was obtained by His Highness from a Persian merchant, and it can sing, you listen," he whistled at the canary, and the canary really opened his mouth to sing, and everyone was amazed, except Xiao Ying, who turned his face and scolded: "Isn't it just a bird that can only sing, what's so strange!" ”

"Your Highness said, this birthday gift, princess, you will definitely like it."

"I like it, I like it, I like the gift he gave, and the mourning family likes it."

"Since there is nothing to do, then the lower official will retire," Deng Cheng said, Qu Ping hurriedly returned the post to him, and when he walked away, Pei Huizhao said jokingly: "Aunt Tai, you are a little eccentric, the third brother went to catch crabs for you, and you praised him well, and now he is such a praise to the fourth brother, the third brother is in his heart, I am afraid that he will be angry." ”

No one thought that Pei Huizhao, who was quiet and silent on weekdays, would arrange people like this, even Xiao Zhen was a little surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, she yin Xiao Ying today, I am afraid it is because Xiao Ying offered him a beauty a few days ago.

Xiao Ying hesitated for a moment, he saw Xiao Heng's displeased face, and immediately retorted to Pei Huizhao: "Sister-in-law, what you said is not right, I ......"

Without waiting for Xiao Ying to finish speaking, Concubine Xie suddenly interrupted and reprimanded: "Guang'er! How does your mother teach you on weekdays, treat your brother and sister-in-law with respect, how can you talk to your sister-in-law, your sister-in-law is just saying that you are two jokes, you are so stingy! ”

"Mother!" Xiao Ying was still unconvinced, looking unrelenting, Xie Guifei was afraid that he would say something unpleasant, so she hurriedly gave him a look, and then he shut up.

Concubine Xie was busy compensating Pei Huizhao again, and said with a smile: "Huizhao, your third brother can't speak, and Shicai doesn't mean to get along with you, it's all a family, don't you take it to heart." ”

"Your concubine Niangniang, if you say this, you will see the outside, and I am not so stingy," Pei Huizhao explained to Xiao Ying again: "Third brother, sister-in-law means that you go to catch crabs in order to please your grandmother, and now you have a taste, that is, because you respect your grandmother too much." ”

Pei Huizhao said that Xiao Ying was small and jealous of Xiao Huang, and Xiao Ying couldn't argue anything now, just as he suffered a loss.

Xiao Ye and his wife, who were on the side, were watching his jokes, and Liu said in a low voice: "Being robbed of the limelight by a person who was not present, he naturally didn't have a taste in his heart, and what my sister-in-law said was true." ”

Xiao Ye only sneered and didn't say anything.

Xiao Daocheng reprimanded: "It's all your own family, what's so delicious, Aunt Taizu treats your children equally, Guang'er, if you still put on a face, it's too unruly." ”

"The father's lesson is that the son knows that he is wrong," Xiao Ying muttered.

At this time, Xiao Heng also said: "You children, the mourning family is very fond of it, treating the white elephant, the mourning family is just a little more distressed, he has no mother since he was a child, blame the pitiful, now that he has grown up, he was sent to guard the border pass, the mourning family has not seen him for three or four years, you should also be considerate and considerate." ”

The juniors said in unison: "Aunt Taizu is right! ”

Before the words fell, the bus made Zhu Fen suddenly break in, looked panicked, and said: "Your Majesty, the big thing is not good!" It's a big deal! ”

Xiao Heng was furious, "What's the matter!" ”

"There are several teams of soldiers and horses in the north, which are approaching Hualin Garden, and Weichen has just ascended to the north to go to the pavilion, and it is roughly estimated that there are about three thousand people, please evacuate quickly!"

Everyone at the banquet was panicked, and they got up one after another to escape for their lives, but Xiao Daocheng also took the case and exclaimed: "What! Can you see whose people it is? ”

"Wei Chen saw that the leader was ......" Zhu Fen glanced at Xiao Zhen in fear, and then continued: "It's Yin Joinjun next to His Royal Highness the Prince......
