Chapter 39: The Queen Mother's Birthday Banquet Asks for Gifts

On the way back from Shangguan Xiong, the two of them had always been in a heavy mood, they felt that their future road would be very difficult, the disappearance of their parents, the relationship between the Buddha Lingzhu and their parents, the connection between the Buddha Lingzhu and Bingxue Lianyu, and the assassination that day, by the way, and the weird black bead, all made them feel that there was a terrible enemy behind them.

The two of them didn't speak all the way, they were both immersed in their own thoughts, and they didn't even know that the two of them had already walked to the Ice and Snow Garden, until someone called her to pull back from their thoughts.

"Shangguan Bing, Shangguan Xue!" Han Shigeng called her several times, and she didn't know what she was thinking, she was actually absent-minded.

"Third prince, why are you here?" After Shangguan Bing came back to his senses, he saw Han Shigeng standing in front of the two of them, and asked suspiciously. What did he come to do?

"Ah, well, that's right, the day after tomorrow is the birthday of the Queen Mother's grandmother, I, the Queen Mother's grandmother asked me to invite you to Shangguan's house to go, you, you will go" Han Shigeng spoke awkwardly, wanting to say that he invited them, but he changed his words to say that the Queen Mother's grandmother, and wanted to ask Shangguan Bing if he would go, and changed it to you, what's wrong with him? Why is it not at all like the rumored third prince.

"Grandpa told us about this just now, and we know it," Shangguan Bing said, not paying attention to his mental activities.

"Isn't this kind of thing all sent to inform the head of the family? The third prince also came to inform me in person, it's really troublesome!" Shangguan Xue said, her eyes glancing back and forth between Han Shigeng and Shangguan Bing, why are the expressions of the three princes so awkward?

"Don't bother, will you go to the two meetings the day after tomorrow?" Han Shigeng asked again.

"We'll go," Shangguan Bing replied lightly, and then said, "Is there anything else the Third Prince has to do?" She only has one thought now, which is to hurry up and cultivate and become stronger.

"No" Is she in such a hurry to kick him out? Just don't want to stay with him for a long time? Han Shigeng noticed that he was starting to think crankily again, a little annoyed, said goodbye and left, and came to the private room on the second floor of Zuixuan Building, at this time there was already a handsome man with an unruly personality waiting for him.

"What's wrong with you, so depressed!" Han Shixuan said.

Han Shixuan, the ninth prince of Ling Xuanguo, is the only one among the princes who stands by Han Shigeng's side.

"Ninth brother, you are emotional, I ask you a question, you must help me analyze and analyze. Han Shigen looked at Han Shixuan and said.

"Okay, you can talk about it" Han Shixuan made a very serious look and listened to his story.

"That's the case, a friend just told me that he always feels very sensitive when he sees his fiancée these days, she ignores him, doesn't look at him, doesn't talk to him, he thinks that his fiancée doesn't take a fancy to him, or he feels that he has no sense of existence, and always wants his fiancée to pay more attention to him, look at him more, talk to him more, what do you say is wrong with him?"

Han Shixuan blinked and asked, "Then did he never meet his fiancée, and only recently started to meet?"

"Hmm,"

"Is it that when you can't see her, your friends always want to go to her, and their minds are full of her?"

"Hmm"

"Do you feel very uncomfortable when you see her talking to other men or something?"

"Hmm"

"Smack!" Han Shixuan slapped the table with a knowing expression, and said, "That's right!"

"What?" Han Shigeng looked at him, eager to hear his answer.

"You, your friend is in love with his fiancée" Han Shixuan looked at Han Shigeng with a mocking look in his eyes, and said with a snicker, "Third brother, your friend won't be you."

"No!" Han Shigeng denied in his mouth, but his eyes betrayed him.

Time often flies quickly, Shangguan Bing and Shangguan Xue have been in retreat for the past two days, Bingxin Yujie didn't dare to disturb, knowing that the Queen Mother's birthday had arrived, the two of them came out of the gate and came to the gate, at this time Shangguan Xiong and Shangguan Yu were already waiting at the door.

"Grandpa!" the two walked over and greeted Shangguan Xiong.

Today's two of them were carefully dressed up by Bingxin Yujie, saying that it was the birthday of the Queen Mother, and the dress they couldn't wear was too shabby, and Bingxin and Yujie had a lot of tinkering. Shangguan Bing's white dress, simple style, not gorgeous or cumbersome, simple bun, only pinned with a hosta, light makeup, will be a beautiful face more beautiful.

Shangguan Xue's pale yellow dress, the same hosta and bun as Shangguan Bing, and makeup, but Shangguan Xue is more youthful and pure.

Shangguan Yu on the side saw that she was so beautiful today, and she was so jealous in her heart, clenching her fists tightly, but she didn't dare to speak now, for fear that as soon as she spoke, it would remind her of the bet, so no matter how jealous she was in her heart now, she couldn't speak.

"Well, let's go!" Shangguan Xiong nodded with satisfaction, his granddaughter was beautiful.

Shangguan Xiong got into a carriage, and Shangguan Yu himself had one, Shangguan Bing and Shangguan Xue one, and she Shangguan Yu didn't dare to sit with her now.

"Xiaoice, have you noticed it, Shangguan Yu is hiding from our two yes!" Shangguan Xue smiled thief.

"Of course she has to hide, she doesn't want to kneel down for the two of us" Shangguan Bing also smiled. After speaking, the two stopped talking.

The two men closed their eyes and said nothing, and after about an hour, the carriage stopped.

A few people got out of the carriage, walked into the palace gate under the leadership of the eunuch, came to the banquet, watched the boring singing, dancing, drama, the two of them were bored and drank a little wine, "It's really worthy of royal wine, this tastes really good" Shangguan Bing took the wine glass and said, by the way, she also bought six altars of Tianxian drunk last time, and she didn't have time to drink, she must taste it when she goes back this time.

"Drunkard!" Shangguan Xuebai glanced at her, Xiaoice hates drinking tea the most, and her favorite drink is wine, her stomach was not very good before, so she usually didn't let her drink, she only drank spiritual water, now that her stomach is good, she began to get hooked on wine again.

Shangguan Bing didn't say anything, because she was originally a drunkard! After they landed on the island for the banquet, they wanted to follow Shangguan Xiong back, but they were stopped by a little girl, "Miss Shangguan Bing, Miss Shangguan Xue, the Queen Mother is invited" The Queen Mother's personal girl saluted and said.

"Grandpa, let's go over for a moment"

Shangguan Bing looked at the little girl before saying to Shangguan Xiong.

The two followed the little girl to the Queen Mother, and next to her, Han Shigeng was actually there.

"Grandma Dowager, happy birthday!" Shangguan Bing smiled lightly, saluted, and said sweetly.

"Happy birthday to the Queen Mother!" Shangguan Xue said happily.

"I'm not happy!" The Queen Mother was like a child playing with her temper, don't look over, don't look at the two of them.

Seeing that the Queen Mother was so childish, the two of them were a little funny, a little helpless, and a little confused, what's wrong?

"What's wrong with the Queen Mother's grandmother?" Shangguan Xue asked.

"You don't come to see me, I don't call you, you don't come, you don't even have a birthday gift" The Queen Mother looked at the two of them, and her eyes hinted vigorously, what about my birthday gift?

"Hehe, my sister and I have already prepared a gift for you" The two of them really prepared it, but they wanted to ask someone to send it, but they didn't expect this old man to send it in person!

"How can we forget the gift of the Queen Mother's grandmother, this is the Imperial Spirit Bead, a third-grade mid-grade spiritual weapon, and it is the lowest level of the Imperial Spirit Bead type of defensive spiritual weapon, which can withstand the blow of the highest powerhouse in the Yellow Spirit Realm and bounce back" Shangguan Bing took out a ball from the space and handed it to the Queen Mother

"This is a defensive talisman, which can defend against the strongest blow of the low-grade Blue Spirit Realm powerhouse, these two things can just help us protect the Empress Dowager's grandmother," Shangguan Bing said.

"This is good, or our ice girl Xue girl has a heart, what about you?" The Queen Mother wanted to finish Shangguan Bing and Shangguan Xue, so she turned to Han Shigeng, the imperial grandson, and the yellow granddaughter.

Everyone was embarrassed for a while, other people's birthdays were all taken the initiative to give gifts, this old queen mother is good, she directly took the initiative to ask for gifts, she is really an old naughty boy!

"Eh, Grandma Dowager, how can there be a gift like you, you still ask for a gift directly, there is no surprise yet" Hanyin pretended to be very angry, muttering and said.

"Surprise, you still have a surprise for me!" The Queen Mother heard that there was a surprise, her eyes lit up, she really deserved to be her good granddaughter, and she prepared a surprise for her, so good!

"Of course!" Hanyin tilted her head proudly.

"Yin'er has a surprise, what about you?" The Queen Mother smiled happily and squinted her eyes, looking at Han Shigeng and many other princes and princesses.

"Grandma the Queen Mother, I also have a surprise for you, but I can't give it to you here, I can't wait until I return to your bedroom" Han Ling also said playfully, the sense of mystery has successfully aroused the interest of the Queen Mother.

"Okay, okay!, you both have hearts, then I'll wait for a while" The Queen Mother nodded, patted Han Ling's arm lightly, and turned to the others again. "What about you?"

"Grandma the Queen Mother, this is a longevity tree exquisitely made of jadeite, I wish the Empress Dowager a long life" Prince Han Shizhong walked over and asked the eunuch behind him to step forward with a gift, and removed Shangguan's red cloth cover, revealing the jade longevity tree inside, crystal clear and exquisite.

"Okay, the prince has a heart," the queen mother said with a smile after accepting it.

"Grandma the Queen Mother, this is ......" Next, everyone gave the Queen Mother precious or rare gifts, this time the old man was really happy, the children all gave the gifts, and the Queen Mother set her sights on the emperor and the queen, as for the other concubines, she didn't care.

"Bing'er! you and Xue'er will have more fun in the palace and then go back, Geng'er, hurry up and accompany Bing'er and Xue'er, do you know" The Queen Mother looked at Shangguan Bing and Han Shigeng, and deliberately accentuated Bing'er's words, and her eyes hinted at Han Shigeng.

"Yes" Han Shigeng was very happy in his heart, or the Queen Mother's grandmother was amazing.

How could Shangguan Bing not know the thoughts of this old queen mother, and felt embarrassed in her heart, why did this old queen mother think so much about her marriage with them? It seems that the queen mother still likes the two sisters of Shangguan Bing, why?
