Even though he was reluctant in his heart, Li Mobai finally blew out the candle.

It's just because Shen Ciwu muttered in his heart when he watched him close his eyes and make a wish:

[Okay, okay, finally gave him a birthday. I don't know if he will be happy to celebrate his birthday in this way, the main thing is that there is nothing in ancient times, and he is the emperor and he lacks nothing, I really don't know what to do to make him happy. 】

From time to time, her mind flashed the 'bitterness' she had eaten in order to make this cake, and these pictures connected her heart, and Li Mobai heard them clearly.

[She did so much just to make me happy on my birthday? There is no self-interested intention? 】

[Is there really someone in this world who doesn't want to be good to another person in return? 】

He stared at Shen Ci for a long time, as if he wanted to find the answer in her clear and agile eyes.

"What did the emperor wish?" Shen Ci blinked his eyes and looked at him with a smile as well.

Li Mobai smiled kindly, and his tone was warm like never before, "I hope that every day in the future can be as happy and joyful as today." ”

"The emperor will definitely get his wish." Shen Ciwei took a knife to divide a piece of cake and handed it to Li Mobai, "The emperor tastes it, see if it's delicious?" ”

Li Mobai chewed and savored it, nodded with a smile for a while, "Very good." ”

To be honest, the cake made by Shen Ciwu does not taste very good.

Perhaps because it has been left for a long time, the fruit on the surface has lost its flavor, and the skin of the cake has collapsed and softened, and it feels like a layer of stale fruit has been spread on top of the overnight hair cake.

But it is such a 'hard to swallow' birthday gift, but it is really sweet at the tip of Li Mobai's heart.

*

Early the next morning, Fengluan Palace.

Xiangling muttered in a low voice while waiting for the queen's hair: "Queen Mother, I have inquired, someone did go to Chaoyang Palace last night." ”

"I can't see this palace if I ask to see you, the person who has this ability is Shen Changzai, right?"

Xiangling nodded timidly, "The queen mother asked to see the emperor with a congratulatory gift last night, but was rejected by Sanfu's father-in-law, I'm afraid it's also because Shen Chang is inside." She's just a constant presence, and she has done things that go beyond the norm many times, and the queen's temperament doesn't care about her, but the slave really can't get used to her! ”

"The emperor likes her, and she can't do anything beyond the norm." The queen put the Dongzhu earrings through the earrings, took a self-portrait in the mirror, and smiled gently and generously, "What's more, what the palace brought last night was not only my own congratulatory gift." ”

Xiangling didn't react for a while, "It's not just your congratulatory gift?" But yesterday we ......."

"The palace went to face the saint yesterday with all the congratulatory gifts above all the concubines in the harem, and the emperor was busy with Shen Chang and had no time to see the palace. Therefore, it was the palace that lived up to the expectations of the sisters and did not bring their hearts to the emperor for the first time. ”

The same words, when everyone greeted the queen, she said it again according to the gourd drawing.

Then he looked at Shen Ci worriedly, and said slowly: "The emperor is not in the mood to have a birthday because he lost and your child, and the emperor can't take care of the harem because of the busy government recently. ”

After a dignified country, it is really rare to pull down her hair and beg a person who is often going to send congratulatory gifts to the emperor for her.

Before Shen Ciwu could speak, Concubine Hui cut off her words with a gloomy face, "Why should the queen be so polite to a person who is always there?" It's too much to elevate her. ”

Concubine Chen said: "She lost the baby in her belly, and the emperor took her to heart for a while, which was also to comfort her pain of losing her child, she really thought that she was like an evergreen tree, which could bloom and bear fruit often?" ”

Concubine Luo said: "That is, the emperor is busy with government affairs, and the queen can't see it, how can she see it?" ”

Among the concubines, only Concubine Xi and Concubine Duan didn't say a word, watching the excitement with cold eyes.

The queen raised her brows and said solemnly: "What are you arguing about one by one?" Is it so difficult for this palace to be pure for a day? She clutched her forehead, her face aching.

Xiangling hurriedly kneaded her temples for her, "Let's not say a word to everyone, the queen didn't sleep all night yesterday, and it was uncomfortable to stay up until dawn and have a windstorm, and she couldn't hear the noise." ”

She ran out of words, and the concubines, whether they were sincere or fake, talked about their concern.

Asked why the queen couldn't sleep last night, the queen waved her hand and didn't want to mention it again, but Xiangling glared at Shen Ciwu, pursed her lips and said: "In order to send the congratulatory gifts of all the ladies to the emperor as soon as possible, the queen waited on the road outside Chaoyang Palace last night. ”

"Xiangling, shut up......" The queen reprimanded Xiangling in a weak voice, but the more she spoke, the more energetic she became:

"The reason why the emperor can't see the queen mother in the air is because Shen Chang pestered the emperor last night, and the emperor can't get out!"

As soon as these words came out, Shen Ciwu immediately became the target of everyone's verbal criticism.

Everyone can use whatever is unpleasant, and Shen Ciwu can't argue with a single mouth.

Luo Concubine even seized the opportunity, and even pushed Shen Ciwu in public with a domineering attitude.

"The emperor has arrived!"

Outside the door, a shrill voice from the inner prison suspended the farce.

The queen got up from her seat and led the concubines to bow to Li Mobai, who came with the wind and dust.

Unexpectedly, Li Mobai didn't pay attention to them at all, and didn't even say a word of 'flat', just walked straight to Shen Ciwu, pulled her up from the cold ground, took her hand and walked out.

Seeing that people were about to leave the main hall, the queen finally couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, if you do this, you will inevitably favor the Shen family too much." ”

Li Mobai stopped at the moment when he was about to step out of the palace gate, and looked back at the queen condescendingly, "I spoil her, how about it?" This harem is my harem, and I can spoil whoever I like, so I have to ask you what I mean first? ”

The queen chuckled in her heart, and was so choked by Li Mobai that she couldn't speak.

She was protected by the Queen Mother, and since she entered the palace, she has been the mother of the middle palace.

Although Li Mobai has never been close to her, he always treats her as respectful.

Over the years, Li Mobai has never spoken to himself.

But today, for the sake of a Shen Ci, he didn't save any face for himself, and embarrassed her in public?

The queen's lips and teeth trembled, she tried her best to hold back her surging tears, kowtowed deeply, and said word by word: "The concubine doesn't dare." ”

The concubines did the same, and they also bowed down and kowtowed, and said in unison: "The ministers (concubines) dare not ......"
