The princes and their wives and concubines sat back in their seats, quietly looking at Yin Xiao and Concubine Li, the atmosphere was a little stagnant for a while, and there was no feeling of a lively birthday banquet, Yin Xiao felt embarrassed for no reason, and a little lost. He has never been close to his children, but Yin Yuan, who is loved by him, although he doesn't want to admit it, he can detect that Yin Yuan doesn't have much father-son affection for him, and what he likes is just this throne. Although Yin Xiao has always regarded and cultivated Yin Yuan as a prince, he is a little dissatisfied in the face of such an ambitious Yin Yuan, and his long-suppressed imperial sensitive and suspicious character is gradually emerging, which is about to overwhelm his love for Yin Yuan and Concubine Li.

"Your Majesty, why don't you start now." Concubine Li snuggled next to Yin Xiao and softly urged Yin Xiao to start the banquet quickly.

"......" Yin Xiao didn't show too much pampering and connivance to Concubine Li as before, just smiled faintly and announced the start of the banquet.

Concubine Li looked at Yin Xiao and squinted a little keenly, she didn't feel that Yin Xiao's attitude towards her and Yin Yuan had changed these days, if it continued like this, Yin Yuan's position as the prince might be shaken, and she would never allow such a thing to happen.

Several palace musicians stepped into the lobby with the musician's "Neon Dress and Feather Song", each of them was a colorful dress, painted with the unique makeup of the Dunhuang area, twisting the waist with the music, the movements flowed, the eyes flowed, just like the fairy who was about to fly to the sky, quite a sense of feathering and ascending to the immortal. Especially the most outstanding palace player who leads the dance, her appearance is beautiful, but her eyes are full of seductive charm, and the great contrast is enough to make everyone's eyes focus on her.

Yin Xiao looked at such an eye-catching dance, the irritability in his heart just now calmed down a little, and he began to watch the dance calmly, his eyes never leaving the palace trick who led the dance.

Concubine Li looked at Yin Xiao with her peripheral vision on the side, seeing him staring at the palace trick's eyes, she smiled very sarcastically and bitterly, feeling a little worthless about her youth in the palace for so many years, but she soon returned to her previous appearance, and looked at the palace trick who led the dance, and quickly moved away.

Shen Qingyan admired the dance of the palace dancers, her head shook gently with the light and unique music, she had also learned the dance of neon clothes and feathers, but she had never danced in front of everyone, at this time, looking at this graceful dance, she remembered the days of practicing dance in her heart, and she missed it very much.

Yin Qi didn't look at those palace tricks, except for Shen Qingyan, no woman could get into his eyes, he just stared blankly at the snacks and pastries on the table, and under the table, he kept holding Shen Qingyan's hand tightly. For some reason, he always felt that something was not right.

Yin Yuan unconsciously watched the dance, but he didn't see anything at all, his mind was full of Shen Qingyan, and he wanted to drink, but because this was a birthday banquet, he couldn't lose his temper, so he could only be bored in his heart alone.

Shen Wanyan lowered her eyes, all her emotions were hidden in her eyes, looking at Yin Yuan's sad appearance because of Shen Qingyan, there was jealousy, anger, and unwillingness in her heart, she hated Shen Qingyan, but she didn't dare to do anything, and she was too tired to do anything.

After a dance, almost everyone on the field had their own thoughts. It wasn't until the officials slowly withdrew and could no longer feel their figures that Yin Xiao suddenly came back to his senses and coughed a few times in embarrassment.

"Your Majesty, we might as well make some games." Concubine Li suppressed the dissatisfaction in her heart and said to Yin Xiao with a smile.

"Okay, listen to the concubine." Yin Xiao didn't even look at Concubine Li, and replied very perfunctorily, his eyes were now full of the official trick just now.

"......" Concubine Li's face was a little ugly, and she didn't answer for a while.

"Father, mother." Yin Yuan saw that Concubine Li couldn't hold back her emotions, and stood up to ease Concubine Li's dissatisfaction, "Today is a day of pleasure, you don't have to be too literary, why don't we play the most simple idiom, starting with the father and the mother, how." ”

"Okay." Yin Xiao also realized his gaffe just now, and hurriedly went down when he saw that Yin Yuan gave him a step, "I say an idiom, you guys pick it up, the first word and the third word must be the same, long live the thousand years." ”

"A thousand reds and purples." Concubine Li next to her also concealed her emotions and returned to her usual considerate appearance.

"Thousands of troops." Yin Yuan continued, he looked at Yin Xiao on the throne, a little dissatisfied, and a little disgusted, but he had no choice but to play the role of a good son.

"A thousand words." Shen Wanyan looked at Yin Yuan, and she didn't have much interest in this game in her heart.

"Thousands of mountains and rivers." The third prince is always so elegant, with a bit of a taste of not asking about the world.

"Ever-changing." Zhao Mengtong held his abdomen, and he was also not interested in this game, and talking to a group of people who were ruined outside the gold and jade was simply a stain on literature.

"Thousands of years." Shen Qingyan casually spat out an idiom, she was not willing to cooperate with these people to do this boring game here.

"......" stopped when he arrived at Yin Qi, and everyone's eyes focused on him, but they quickly moved away, intending to skip him, but Yin Qi suddenly spoke.

"A thousand cuts." Yin Qi opened his innocent eyes and said this idiom neatly, his voice was so loud that even people outside the palace could hear it, and the lobby fell silent for a while.

Shen Qingyan hurriedly lowered his head, bit the corner of his mouth, and suppressed the laughter that was about to explode, this Yin Qi is really bad enough.

"Bastard, what day is it, let you talk nonsense here!" Yin Xiao frowned and scolded Yin Qi angrily, his eyes full of disgust.

"The emperor is not angry, the prince is now a lot more knowledgeable, he should be happy." Concubine Li was not at all unusual, like a loving mother who doted on her son, and persuaded Yin Xiao on the side.

"Love the concubine and be generous." Yin Xiao patted the back of Concubine Li's hand with relief, and she was no longer angry about what she had just done.

Shen Qingyan stared at Concubine Li and squinted, there was no one else present today, Concubine Li didn't need to play the image of a loving mother at all, not to mention that she should have already known that Yin Qi was a hidden danger to her, if it was usual, not only would she not persuade the emperor on the side, but she would also add fuel and vinegar to the wind in her ears, which was too abnormal.

At this moment, Concubine Li's eyes suddenly met Shen Qingyan's gaze, and she returned a meaningful smile, which made Shen Qingyan clench her palms fiercely, and a bad premonition arose.

"Mother." Yin Yuan suddenly stood up and picked up a scroll of paintings from his side, "This is a painting made by Erchen for his mother's concubine, Erchen's skills are not perfect, and I also invite my mother Haihan, I wish my mother a year and a year." ”

Yin Yuan said while opening the painting, the painting is the portrait of Li Guifei, in the flowers, Li Guifei is dressed in red, looking back and chuckling, if you look carefully, you will find that there is a phoenix hairpin in the black bun that is only exclusive to the queen.

The painting was only visible to Yin Xiao and Concubine Li, and they naturally noticed this phoenix hairpin. Concubine Li smiled and praised Yin Yuan's painting skills, and smiled from ear to ear, but Yin Xiao was a little cold and did not speak. The people below looked at the completely different expressions of the two and were a little puzzled, but they also knew that they couldn't talk too much at this time, so they sat quietly.

"Thank you, Princess." Yin Yuan saluted, handed the painting to the palace people on the side, and sat down himself.

"Mother, the son embroidered a picture of a thousand longevity, wishing the mother a long life." Shen Wanyan stood up and presented the embroidery at hand, which she had embroidered for several days and nights, and it could be said that it took a lot of effort, and her eyes were already red, so she could be regarded as driving out the embroidery before the birthday banquet.

"Put it away." However, Concubine Li only lightly ordered the embroidery to be put away to the palace maid on the side, and did not even say a word to Shen Wanyan.

Shen Wanyan clenched her palms, her eyes were filled with a sense of wetness, and she turned her head to look at Yin Yuan, but found that the other party didn't look this way at all, bit her lower lip, returned to her seat and sat with her head down, no longer making a sound.

Although Shen Qingyan didn't want to have anything to do with Concubine Li, he still had to follow the etiquette, picked up the Jade Guanyin beside him, and saluted Concubine Li.

"Concubine Li, this is a birthday gift prepared by the prince and his concubines, I wish Concubine Li...... To be blessed by the Bodhisattva. ”

Shen Qingyan left a sentence of unknown meaning, so he handed the jade Guanyin to the palace maid on the side, saluted again, and sat back in his seat, not wanting to look at Concubine Li again.

Concubine Li didn't care about Shen Qingyan's rudeness, and glanced at the jade Guanyin, still with that smile of unknown meaning.

"Concubine Li, this is the Buddhist scripture that I copied with Fujin for Concubine Li, I wish Concubine Li eternal blessings." The third prince saluted lightly, and after handing out the Buddhist scriptures, he wanted to sit down, but he was unexpectedly stopped by Concubine Li.

"The third child, this palace remembers that when the three blessings were selected by the prince that day, he played a song with Yuxiao, which left a deep impression on the palace, I don't know if today can she play another song to congratulate the palace on her birthday."

"......" The third prince looked at Concubine Li, frowned unconsciously, he didn't know what this woman was going to do, "Concubine Li, Mengtong is pregnant, she can't be tired, I'm afraid it's ......" Before the third prince finished speaking, he was interrupted by Concubine Li with a smile.

"The third child is his beloved wife, just playing a song, where can you be tired, is it because the two of you don't want to celebrate the birthday of this palace?" Concubine Li smiled at any time, but her eyes were cold, as soon as these words came out, it simply made the third prince have no way out.

"Concubine Li." Zhao Mengtong stood up with her waist on her back, and the third prince hurriedly walked to her side to help her, afraid that she would fall. Zhao Mengtong smiled comfortingly and motioned to the third prince to relax.

"Then the concubine will be respectful, it is better to obey her fate, and sacrifice her ugliness." Zhao Mengtong saluted and agreed to Concubine Li's request, no matter what, she couldn't let the third prince be hurt.

Zhao Mengtong slowly walked to the center of the hall, and the palace maid presented a jade Xiao with a tray, but Zhao Mengtong shook his head and refused.

"The concubine is not used to using other people's Xiao, so she brought it herself." Zhao Mengtong was very cautious, took out his Xiao from his sleeve, and did not touch the Xiao presented by the palace maid.

Zhao Mengtong closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and the sound of Xiao came out, floating throughout the lobby. If it was before, Zhao Mengtong's Xiao Sheng always had a hint of coldness, but now, her Xiao Sheng is a little bit of joy about to become a mother.
