In fact, knowing that this nozzle toy was Lu You's first birthday gift to Lu Jin, Li Cong specially asked the queen to prepare a congratulatory gift for Lu Jin, and asked the queen to take the princess to Lu Jin's first birthday banquet in person.

Although the queen didn't know about Lu You's plan, she knew that Yan Yan gave the emperor the hundreds of catties of cotton she had harvested along with the tens of thousands of catties of yams, and the emperor ordered someone to make hundreds of cotton jackets and send them to the front line along with those yams.

In fact, those yams were originally wanted by Yan Yan to be left for the people in Zhuangzi to eat, so that she could save some of the food and donate it to the imperial court, but the emperor vetoed Yan Yan's proposal, he named these yams, saying that the yams are easy to carry, and they can be buried in the ground and roasted and eaten when the front army is marching and fighting.

In other words, the emperor used these sweet potatoes as dry food, which can save lives at critical times.

Therefore, the queen thought that the emperor was grateful for Yan Yan's kindness in donating cotton and sweet potatoes, so she asked her to take the crown princess to Mingyuan.

But who knew that she prepared the gift, and the emperor suddenly changed his mind, not only thought that the things she had prepared were simple, but also wanted to follow the door in person, saying that he wanted to see what Lu Jin looked like.

The queen naturally didn't believe this statement, the emperor really wanted to see what Lu Jin looked like, and just ordered Yan Yan to take him to the palace, why bother to move the crowd so much?

But the queen didn't dare to ask this, so she had to add a few things suspiciously.

Half an hour later, when the emperor and the queen were just about to get on the sedan chair, Li Ji brought Li Sui and the three over, during the conversation, the queen heard a news, the emperor asked the prince how it was going, the prince shook his head, and said that it had only been three days, and the machine had not yet been completed.

"Father, brother of the crown prince, do you mean that gunpowder spray can?" Li Sui on the side became excited and interjected and asked.

"Gunpowder cans?" Li Sui and Li Shu asked at the same time, they still didn't know what was going on.

"Oops, it's the bamboo nozzle that can make paper animals, it's a small birthday gift made by Yan'er's brother-in-law to Lu Jin, but I didn't expect Sister Yan'er to see this thing and actually think that it could be transformed into a gunpowder can, saying that it is to change the small animal into gunpowder, and then make the bamboo tube bigger, and the gunpowder can explode after being sprayed out directly." Li Sui explained.

"Will this work?" Li Sui had never seen that thing, and instinctively didn't believe it.

"None of us know if it's okay or not, but Yan'er's brother-in-law said that it is okay in theory, we have tried that nozzle can, and we can still shoot small stones, but it is not high and cannot be far, so we have to redo the machine." Li Sui explained.

Only then did the queen understand why the emperor wanted to come to Mingyuan, it turned out that the couple had made a great contribution again.

Because of this cognition, when the queen heard Yan Yan kneeling, she hurriedly ordered to get off the sedan chair, and then the queen walked out of the sedan chair with the support of the two palace maids, and at this time Li Cong also got off the sedan chair and ordered Liu Gonggong next to him to help Yan Yan up.

Then, seeing that there were many female dependents kneeling on the ground, Li Cong opened his mouth and said: "Let's all be flat, I am here today as a relative, you play yours." ”

After speaking, Li Cong glanced at these people, didn't see Lu You, and asked casually.

"Back to the emperor, my grandson went to the Ministry of Industry early in the morning, saying that he would come back early." Yan Yan bowed and replied.

"That's it, take us to your study, order someone to call that kid back, and bring today's little birthday star to the study for me to see." Li Cong saw that most of the guests who came today were female dependents, but he also knew that it was inconvenient for him to go in to see Lu Jin, and it was even more inconvenient to talk to Yan Yan.

And he had heard Li Sui say more than once that Lu You had also made a small workshop in the outer study, so he wanted to go and see it.

When Yan Yan heard this, he personally asked Yan Zhang and Yan Bin to lead the emperor and his entourage to the outer study, and on the one hand, he ordered Qingmiao to pick Lu Jin out, and on the other hand, he beckoned the queen and the princess and others to go to the backyard.

As soon as everyone turned onto the corridor leading to the main house in Yan Yan's backyard, they saw Qingmiao and Qingglaze coming over with Lu Jin in their arms.

The queen stood up first, Yan Yan hurriedly took Lu Jin from Qingmiao's hand and put Lu Jin on the ground, and then Yan Yan coaxed the child softly and said: "Jin Niang, come, this is the queen mother, give the queen mother." ”

As soon as Lu Jin heard this, he raised his head to look at the queen, blinked his eyes, but also curtsy, and spit out a word, "Niangniang, An." ”

"Back to the queen's mother, Jin Niang will not make a big salute, but will only say a word or repeat the sound." Yan Yan explained.

"That's good, how old is the child, this little posture is quite decent, come, I'll hug you." After the queen finished speaking, she really bent down and hugged Lu Jin.

Lu Jin is used to frolicking with Yan Yan and Lu You on weekdays, but she is not afraid of life at all, and when the little thing saw the other party hugging her and smiling all over her face, she habitually hugged the queen's neck and rubbed it on the queen's face.

"Ouch, this little thing is amazing, you still know how to kiss me, don't you like me too?" The queen's motherhood for many years was awakened by Lu Jin's kiss, and she couldn't help but hug Lu Jin and kiss her several times.

"Sister Yan'er is really good at training children, this little thing not only looks pink and jade, but this temperament is so pleasing, even I want to take it back when I see it." The crown princess quipped on the side.

"But no, Yan'er, I will often take her into the palace in the future, and the old lady of the Queen Mother is also worried, if she is not afraid of giving the child a blessing today, she will also come." After the queen finished speaking, she handed over the child to Yan Yan.

Yan Yan took the child and was about to hand it over to Qing Glaze, when the queen said: "Your emperor's uncle is also worried about your mother and daughter, why don't you send the child over yourself and see what he says, it is best to ask him for a big gift." ”

"That's not appropriate, is it? The Queen's Mother... ”

Before Yan Yan finished speaking, the queen waved her hand to interrupt her, "Go ahead, we are not outsiders, there are so many guests here, and you are not one of them." ”

"Yes, Yan'er, the queen mother is accompanied by us, you can take Jinniang to see the emperor." Zhu Shi hurriedly stepped forward and said.

How to say that she is also Yan Yan's mother-in-law, Lu Jin's grandmother, Lu You has not yet split up, this family should have been her, therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that she is the owner of Mingyuan, so it is most appropriate for her to entertain these female dependents.

Of course, the Zhu family also knew that the emperor came so excitedly, and it was definitely not as simple as giving Lu You a birthday banquet, so she saw that the queen ordered Yan Yan to see the emperor, and she also made a favor.

Yan Yan also guessed this, but what she didn't understand was why the emperor hit her head with the idea again?
