Chapter 54: Wait and see
"Xiaochuan, Mo Ran, what do you think?"
Chu Wanxiang's knowledge made the Queen Mother very satisfied, and she liked the woman in front of her more and more.
Glancing at the two princes standing under the main hall again, the Queen Mother asked them.
"The grandson listened to the words of the emperor's grandmother."
The Queen Mother personally ordered, who would dare to disobey.
Compared with the fifteen days of perseverance just now, this is just a three-day maid, which is much lighter.
"Well, that's the end of it. Today is Aijia's birthday party, and everyone is here for the banquet. Don't waste time, let's get started. ”
As soon as the words were finished, the birthday party officially began.
Chu Wanxiang sat between Chu Qiang and Gu Ling, facing Chu Mohan.
Because of the queen mother's punishment, Jiang Qiyun and Yue Baiqing sat behind Chu Wanxiang.
A pair of hateful eyes stared at Chu Wanxiang's back, eager to see her through.
Chu Wanxiang, how dare you humiliate me, you wait, I will never let you down.
The birthday party began, the venue was lively, and everyone's congratulations made the Queen Mother feel very good.
Especially Chu Wanxiang, the Queen Mother was very happy with her sharp mouth.
"Hahaha, alas, this kid is very similar to Ruoyun before, he will try his best to please Ai's family."
When Gu Ruoxin was mentioned, there was a slight silence on the field.
This name is a taboo, and usually no one dares to mention it in the imperial palace for fear of offending the emperor.
In the past, the Empress Dowager took into account the emperor's feelings and never mentioned this matter, but today, for some reason, she suddenly mentioned this matter, which made everyone confused.
"The Queen Mother's birthday, everyone here must want to make the Queen Mother happy, and the Ming Emperor just expressed his thoughts. To please the Queen Mother, how can I rely on the mouth of the Ming Emperor alone? Empress Dowager Ding has already felt everyone's sincere blessings. ”
Chu Wanxiang noticed this embarrassment, and immediately opened her mouth to ease the atmosphere and said some flattery.
This princess of the Ming Emperor is really good at talking, which not only makes the Queen Mother happy, but also wins the hearts of everyone present.
"You kid, your little mouth is like honey, who can not like you after hearing it?"
The Queen Mother's eyes narrowed with laughter, the embarrassment just now seemed to have never been there, and the people below were all echoing with joy.
"Emperor Ming is really smart now, and a simple sentence can turn a danger into a disaster, right?"
Chu Yan's unrestrained gaze lingered on Chu Wanxiang's face, with fair skin, small earlobes, and a slender snow-white neck......
A gust of hot wind rushed up from his lower abdomen, Chu Yan's mouth was a little dry, this woman, the more she tasted, the more fascinating she was.
"Your Highness is right, she is indeed ice and snow smart." Xiang Ao noticed Chu Yan's eyes looking at Chu Wanxiang, and anger rose from the bottom of his heart, and there was a kind of anger that his own things were coveted by others.
Obviously, Chu Wanxiang had made it clear that he was not interested in him, but Xiang Ao still regarded Chu Wanxiang as his personal property.
In his heart, even if he doesn't want something, it's still his, and no one is allowed to touch anything, not to mention, the current Chu Wanxiang is like a bright pearl, how could he not.
On the other hand, Xiao Min felt very uncomfortable listening to Junli's compliments to Chu Wanxiang.
Senior Brother Wen Shui sat next to him, she was the closest woman to Brother Wen Shui, but his eyes were always on Chu Wanxiang. About that little slut Wan Xiang.
She is unwilling, that little slut will definitely die, and she will not let that little slut take away her brother Wenshui.
I set my sights on Jiang Qiyun, who also hates Chu Wanxiang, Jiang Qiyun, you also hate Chu Wanxiang, by the way, this princess will give you a chance to take revenge now.
"Grandma, Caiwei has prepared the best birthday present for you, you will definitely like it." While the Queen Mother was talking to Chu Wanxiang, Xiao Yue got up and saluted the Queen Mother with a smile.
"This kid is really troubled." Hearing that her granddaughter had prepared a gift for herself, the Queen Mother was naturally full of joy, turned her attention to Xiaoyue, and looked at her lovingly.
"But my granddaughter accidentally sprained her ankle a few days ago, and the doctor told her not to move too much, so can I ask Sister Minghuang to help me get this birthday gift?"
Sprained her foot, Chu Wanxiang glanced at her ankle. When she entered the arena just now, the princess was still alive and kicking, as if she had sprained her ankle.
Talking like this all of a sudden, and asking me to help carry things myself, there must be something difficult to do.
"Hehe, why are you so careless, sit down quickly, don't hurt your muscles."
After all, it was her granddaughter, and the Queen Mother was very distressed when she heard that she was injured, so she hurriedly asked someone to help her sit down, and then turned to Chu Wanxiang and said, "Child, then I will trouble you to escape." ”
"It's just a small thing, Wan Xiang should help." Chu Wanxiang squatted down with a smile, called her maid ring, and went with her.
Jiang Qiyun then got up, and when she passed by Xiao Yue's desk, she and her.
After a while, Chu Wanxiang personally took out the gift. On a large tray, red silk cloth is covered.
Although it is not possible to see the specific appearance of this birthday gift, it can be seen from the shape that it is some jewelry.
"Grandma, these are all high-quality ice jadeites that Cai Wei specially found, and they have been carved into exquisite jewelry, bracelets, phoenix hairpins, earrings, rings, and forehead pendants. They are all in one set and mean good luck. ”
Satsuki's words are very flattering, and who wouldn't want to hear some auspicious words at a birthday party?
"Well, Caiwei has a heart." The Queen Mother was overjoyed when she heard this, and immediately asked Chu Wanxiang to bring up the things, and couldn't wait to mention the red silk.
It's just that the moment the red silk was lifted, the old man's face immediately collapsed, like a dark cloud, so dark, so terrifying.
"Fourth brother, the emperor's grandmother's face suddenly became terrifying."
Xiaoqing's heart tensed. The queen mother is usually kind and kind, but once she loses her temper, no one can resist it.
He was most afraid that the Queen Mother would be angry.
"We'll see." Chu Mohan put away the slight smile on his face and became a little more serious.
He had a hunch that Chu Wanxiang might be in trouble. Looking at this beautiful woman with a straight waist, a trace of worry appeared in her eyes.
"Emperor Ming, what's going on?"
The Queen Mother raised her head, looked at Chu Wanxiang, who was as calm as water, and asked seriously.
The jewelry on the tray is indeed made of jadeite, but there are only three pieces of this one, all of which are high-quality ice jadeite, and the other two have been replaced with waxy ice jadeite.
Ice species are somewhat similar to waxy ice species, but those who can do it will recognize it at a glance.
The Queen Mother has been in a high position for many years, and she has not seen anything good. She could tell the type of jadeite at a glance.
Chu Wanxiang glanced at the five ornaments in front of her, picked up the ring and forehead pendant and took a closer look, and sure enough, it was a glutinous ice species.
