In the Heart Cultivation Palace, the emperor is approving excerpts.

Seeing that the emperor had just finished approving it, Li Quande immediately served a cup of tea.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Niangniang and Luo agreed, and each sent someone to send a pine nut lily cake."

Saying that, the little eunuch presented it, and the emperor didn't look at it, so he said, "Tonight, I promised." He raised his left hand and motioned for them to stand down, and the pine nut lily cake was placed on the table.

The emperor picked up the one on his right hand and tasted it, and was very satisfied: "This is made by Concubine Shu." ”

Li Quande bent down slightly and said: "The emperor is wise, just now the queen sent someone to pass the word, saying that it is the birthday of the lady concubine in two days, and she is going to hold a event in the Taihe Palace, and I want to invite the emperor to come over." ”

"Well, you remember to remind me."

The emperor finished eating a piece and told him to take it down.

Yongshou Palace.

In the inner hall, the Queen Mother was lying gracefully on the couch, and the grandmother was waiting beside her.

A little palace maid lifted the curtain, whispered something to the grandmother, and gently withdrew.

Mama: "Queen Mother, Shang Shu ordered someone to bring something to Concubine Shu, I'm afraid I'm in a hurry." ”

The Queen Mother looked like she was asleep, and she didn't make a sound for a while. When she opened her eyes slowly, she said softly: "Concubine Shu, it's just a matter of acquaintance." ”

"What about it? The palace maid of Chuxiu Palace is dead, and there may be someone who makes a fuss. The Queen Mother said and thought about it, and she was not happy.

Mama smiled and said with relief: "The little master is fine, the queen mother just rest assured." ”

"It's just that the one in the cold palace saw the little master, and maybe he could help, so that they couldn't set off the storm."

When the Queen Mother heard this, she said to her grandmother in a calm tone: "You star, if she dares to be unfavorable to her, she doesn't have to give the last face." ”

Mama smiled: "Yes, the Queen Mother is relieved, that one can't go crazy." ”

Two days later.

Concubine Shu is dressing up in Changyi Palace, and on the day of the big day, she picked up a reddish begonia auspicious dress, which changed from the beautiful and gentle in the past. The hair bun is paired with three golden steps, and the five-tailed phoenix bead hairpin is worn on the side, and the tassel hangs down to the earlobe.

Dressed in a luxurious and atmospheric manner, Xingyue praised Concubine Shu, and the Concubine Shu was happy.

Xingyue held it in both hands, a delicate box. With a smile on his face, he said happily: "Niangniang, this is the adult who specially asked someone to bring it into the palace, and instructed the slave and maid to hand it over to the mother in person to open it and see it." ”

On his birthday, my father rarely brought something again, and immediately opened it happily to see what he had brought with him.

A letter, a small bottle made of purple jade.

Taihe Temple.

The queen was dressed in a red phoenix robe and a nine-tailed phoenix crown, sitting dignifiedly.

She was the last to arrive except for the emperor, and all the concubines had arrived. Concubine Shu sat on the lower left side, drinking Pu'er tea freely.

"Cailian, what time is it?" The queen asked.

"Back to Niangniang's words, it's time for you."

The emperor hasn't come yet, but it's time to serve food.

The queen looked at Concubine Shu, her expression was soft, and she said softly: "Today is your birthday, and all the sisters have come to congratulate you." ”

turned his head again, his eyes swept the concubines on both sides, and his tone was full of majesty: "The emperor is busy with government affairs, and he can't come for a while." Let's go to the dishes first, and the sisters are probably hungry. ”

Concubine Shu nodded, smiled lightly and said, "But it's up to the mother's arrangement." ”

In addition to the concubine, all the concubines stood up and saluted, and said the same way: but it is arranged by the mother.

The Imperial Garden is also the only way to go to the Taihe Palace. At this moment, the emperor was in a hurry, and only Li Quande followed alone.

The emperor arrived at the Taihe Palace.

Headed by the queen, all the concubines saluted the emperor and said goodbye. After the rules, the scene of the previous moment was restored, not lively, and not deserted.

This is the birthday banquet of the lady concubine, except for the queen mother, who is dressed in red, and the rules worn by all the concubines, which will be in the limelight. Concubine Shu was favored again, and the emperor's eyes stayed there, and she was naturally the one who slept tonight.

Concubine Shu toasted to the emperor: "The emperor can come, the concubines are very happy, the emperor drinks, and the concubines replace the wine with tea." ”

With a smile on his face, he drank it all after speaking, looked at the emperor and smiled, and drank a glass of wine. Concubine Shu saw it with her own eyes, smiled a little deeper, and then sat down.

At the birthday banquet of the concubine, it is disrespectful to not be able to wear plain.

But her rank is really low, and she can't wear the color of the rules in the palace. To be festive, I chose a dress with a light orange color and a dark pattern.

It's just summer, and it's not too hot.

The light orange color is very light, and it looks just right at night, so it doesn't make people feel hot.

The days when Concubine Shu was in the limelight, no one mentioned her, and it was good that it ended quietly. There are many people in the palace who want to pick on them, and Wan Chang can't sit still.

got up from his seat, congratulated Concubine Shu, and invited the emperor and the queen to be safe. After some rhetoric, it can be regarded as a mention.

"The concubine is good at the qin, and a special song is prepared to congratulate the lady on her birthday, but the concubine has a request."

Gongyi Liuwan stopped talking, looked at Zhi Yu with sincere eyes, and said, "Can Yingchang dance and compose a song with me?" Whatever my sister dances, my sister plays. ”

Zhizhu knew that someone would stir up trouble, but she didn't want to be involved with Xue'er.

The former sentence is still called Ying Chang Zai, and the latter sentence is my sister and sister.

Those who were sitting at the table seemed to have forgotten that the day was promoted, but Xue'er had an accident. After that day, the entire harem didn't even spread a word of rumor.

Zhiyu got up and politely refused: "I would like to celebrate the birthday of the concubine, but the concubine doesn't know how to dance." ”
